WIP WEDNESDAY
@drowninginmytbr thanks for the tag! It was really hard to pick a WIP...
This is from a TCW/DC fic that puts Stephanie Brown (going by 'Cassandra' here) on Coruscant and directly into Commander Fox's path... I literally don't know why the idea won't leave me alone 😅
--------------
"If I have something, I'll put this on the public comm by Vox's," Cassandra says, and sketches a symbol on the back of his napkin.
At first he thinks it's sloppy Aurebesh, but when she spins the napkin around Fox sees it's rather the suggestion of a bird. It's little more than two lines, wings outstretched, with the outline of horns or maybe ears in the middle.
"A shriek-hawk?" he asks, unable to entirely temper the incredulity in his voice.
Cassandra just shrugs. "A bird, at least. All that matters is that it means I have intel."
It's a crude system, but the symbol will easily blend in with the rest of the graffiti that covers the level. It could work. It will work.
"Alright then, little bird."
She smiles that galaxy-grin and Fox finds himself almost smiling back, though it'd be at a considerably lower wattage.
And that's how it begins.

No pressure tags: @kartaylirnaak @bubblesxo @darthmaulscatgirl if y'all and writing, and anyone else!
