Re: Green Arrow Grapples with Idolicide (Continuation of an ingame Role Play)


Being wealthy had responsibilities. Glamor and glitz, Brings many things to a lifestyle. Certain public expectations. But being a known tycoon, as well as suspected 'Super-hero'. More often than not, people were up to no good.

Staring on, observing the helpful man's mannerisms. Aches and pains superceding every bit of Oliver's faculties and demeanor. Including his proper ettiquette.

"I'm sorry." He whispered. Not from being timidly humbled. But every breath had been a heavy task.

"You'll be compensated. I...I appreciate your help.....Sincerely." he continued, now scanning the hospital room. His apprehensions were in high alert. And being a vigilante for so many years, left the 'playboy derelict' ultra observant, paranoid and testy.

His expectations of the samaritan were low to be honest.

Queen shifted in the stiff institutional bedding. Wincing in both pain. Discomfort and annoyance. Knowing he failed from maintaining the murderous villain earlier sat horribly woth him. And quite honestly....ruined his ego. Though, he'd never express that notion openly. A level of bitter failure weighed on his image. These things were the silent aspects of modern day 'Super Heroes'. Things no one wpuld usually realize. As absurd as it was, it was true. Not fiminishing his honest efforts. But it would be a grave lie,
To think a level of publicity to maintain wasn't attractive heroes and criminals alike.

The apprehension he held was conclusive in part of being a public image, and rich man. Trust was rarely dealt. Ever.

The man waved it off a little with a genuine smile. "Neh, don't worry about it. I don't need anything." He said with a grin. He saw how agitated the man got when he looked around the room. "You're safe here. These assholes are greedy, but know what they are doing." He added with a chuckle.

The computer science major closed his laptop and put it back in a new backpack he bought from the gift shop. The laptop was custom made, and looked to be more powerful then any computer in the hospital. He zipped up the bag and sat back in the chair. He wanted to make sure the doctors would take good care of him before he left.

Re: Green Arrow Grapples with Idolicide (Continuation of an ingame Role Play)


"Lopez. Detective Andrew Lopez. Call him as soon as possible. " Oliver grabbed at his ribs. His breathing a bit more heaving. The pain was obvious. But swearing off the morphine drip he was allotted, would even make a recovered addict disapprove.

"He can clean all of this up fast. I don't want my friends....in the league to...fuss over this. Star is Mine. And Canary's." he sighed.

(Not in any disrespect of his life long companion, yet on and off again attachment. But more so in best regard, and utter terror to worry her.)


"You...what the hell IS your name. What can I call ya...computer savvy huh? That's a very lucrative talent. I could use a talent like that. But get Lopez." His wince was obviously muted. A super hero cliché more than likely. Of maintaining the disciplined image. THAT or this ' playboys' extraordinaire...wasn't half of the media image he perpetrated?

Re: Green Arrow Grapples with Idolicide (Continuation of an ingame Role Play)


The man smiled as he listened to Oliver talk about calling the Detective. He had every intention of calling the person he was asked to contact. But before he could, his smile started to fade as Mr. Queen comtinued. "Wait.. wait a second. Are you saying..." he got to his feet. "Are you saying you actually ARE the Green arrow?!" He looked shocked. "Like THE Green Arrow?! Holy !@#$!"

He started to pace around the room. "I thought it was just a publicity stunt!" He looked back to Mr. Queen. "My names Jacob. Jacob Cross. I'm a computer scientist." He stood next to the newly confirmed Green Arrow. "It's a pleasure to meet you, sir."

Jacob Cross' s reaction was to be expected. Though Ollie hadn't given much, in the way of the publics affairs. Neither confirming, nor denying the conputer scientists realization. Oliver simply readjusted his laying position in the institution bed.
By this point, his leg had been elevated, cast fitted in specific manner. And a saline bag fixed to intravenus input.

" Jacob, I really appreciate the help. Sincerely." Oliver offered the man.

But sadly, as a figure at his capacity. Oliver couldn't easily let someone in without apprehension. In fact, Oliver hadn't dismissed Cross's threat potential.

Jacob nodded, happily. "Of course. You can call me Jake. I'm glad I could help. Did you need anything else to help you? You said something about my skills with technology would take me far. Was there something I could help you with?"

Jacob wasn't often star struck, but he had a lot of respect for the Green Arrow. He had lived in this city all of his life and he loved it as much as anyone loves their home. So, when it is threatened and people like Oliver step up and protect it, he would do anything to help.

Realizing that he may be too close to Oliver, and making him uncomfortable, he took his seat again, still smiling.

"It would be foolish to say anything but 'yes'." Oliver answered. His eyes shut, while he seperated the pain of body. From pain of mind. This being done, he had in fact the ability and. Discipline to maintsin a coherent conversation with Jake as well all the while.

"After you helped me, it would be poor standard for me to blow off such an opportunity. I'm not tech savvy. Between business...and pleasure. " he paused, regarding his extra curricular events that he participated. Yet to confirm his identity alter ego.

"If I were to call on you, you'd be able to....find things as per my request, right? Mind you...I hold odd hours." He began.

Jake smiled and nodded. "Yeah. Of course. I mean, I already found your insurance information. You really should see a doctor more often." He said and crossed his arms. "A lot of people can do that though, Mr. Queen. I mean... I don't want to say that I would pass up on this opportunity. I definitely want to help but.... you um... well, you and your friends must have people that do that sort of thing."

He looked out the window. "Maybe not as fast as me, but I'm sure they do a good job." He smiled smugly, thinking about working on something so big.

Oliver shut hus eyes, but smiled warmly.

"Its not about how useful you are, Jake. Quality over Quantity. Thats always been Queen Industries mantra. Even when we peddled arms and ammunition."

He shifted delicately. His threshold of pain at its near end. He literally held the morphine drip applicator.


"He will come. Its....a...hunt. now....hes on to the blood trail.." Ollie tried to explain.


"Lopez..." he tried to say. But muffled, with his consciousness.

Jake's smile left his face. "You're right... that monster will be looking for you..." He looked out the window and saw the media outside of the Hospital, reporting the Mr. Queen was in this very hospital. "Idiots!" He shouted, unintentionally.

Pulling out his computer, he had to do something before the man in black came back to finish Oliver off. He started typing like a mad person, putting in a tip that Mr. Queen was actually at another hospital, miles away from where they were.

He held his breath as he watched the reporters outside. Like the flip of a switch, they each got a call from their producers. Once they hung up, like lemmings, they returned to their vehicles and sped to be the first to get the scoop about the attack on the billionaire.

Jake sighed heavily and slumped in his chair a bit, a smile on his face. Doing as Oliver asked earlier, he called for Detective Lopez to come to see his new employer.
