[psl] Tim and Kon's Excellent Adventure

Another night, another weirdo criminal causing trouble in Gotham. Right now Condiment King was trying to hold up the Gotham branch of the First National Bank. His condiment guns had definitely been upgraded since Tim last saw him. Now, he could manage a very acidic mustard, vinegar, ketchup, relish, and nutella.

The last one was the one that posed the most risk, given how many people had nut allergies. Which meant of course that he had to be taken down before he plastered someone with it that was allergic.

Kon was a long way from Smallville. In the past, he would've just jumped in and probably wrecked the street or something, but he'd long since learned not to just barrel into a situation until he knew what was going on.

That meant, just for a moment, as Condiment King tried to fight his way away from the bank, that he got to watch Tim work. Which was impressive, as usual.

Still, right now, he didn't know whether to help or just laugh his butt off. To start with, he settled with watching, just to make sure the condiment thing was really the only ace up this guy's sleeve.

You have got to be kidding me...

"If I ever switch careers and go criminal, I'll outsource all my baked goods crimes to you."

She squints for a second at the guy who's just walking up to the building. "All right, that's him."

"It'll be legendary," she agrees before holding up a hand to let him know to stay where he is until she signals otherwise. Ideally, she'd like to just take Julian in on her own. She just has to separate him from his explosives first.

She does try to convince him to stop this plan himself, since he hasn't event set off any explosives, but partway through the conversation her commlink crackles into life and she gets a message from Oracle that Jervis Tetch is active and has apparently kidnapped several people and retreated to a small abandoned amusement park, because of course he has. Tim abruptly stops negotiating and just knocks Julian out. She stays just long enough to make sure the police get him and his explosive before heading back to Kon.

"All right, the Mad Hatter's out and kidnapping people. We need to deal with him."
