OPEN - In the middle of the night
Who: Matt (playing the Devil of Hell's Kitchen Hadriel's Pantry?) and OPEN
What: Old habits die hard. Matt is hopping around the rooftops and backstreets of the city
Where: Honestly, anywhere -- from the city straight to the tunnels
When: Now, but encompassing various days/nights in the near future
Warnings: Matt's stupid "disguise" fashion sense. And PARKOUR!!!
[Matt has settled in, more or less, to his apartment, gotten the general layout of the city down. Very nearly even found a routine -- exploring, gathering supplies, going back to his new "home" and going through his mental notes, of what he knows and what he doesn't know.
But walking around the streets, cane in hand, doesn't give him everything he needs to know. And he may have sworn off his other life as Daredevil back in New York, but doesn't this count as an extenuating circumstance? Well, that's the justification he's using.
He's dressed all in black, pants, a long sleeve shirt, thick gloves, and a black knit cap pulled down over his eyes, the bridge of his nose, so only the lower half of his face shows.]
[Option A - City Streets]
[It's after dusk, but Matt does make his way along the streets, sticking to less-traveled ways. But that doesn't mean he won't run into someone else out and about in the evening hours.
In fact, it's Matt's luck that he may wind up dropping down from the rooftop, landing soundless -- right in front of some poor unsuspecting person.]
[Option B - Rooftops]
[Most of the time though, Matt spends his time above the city, darting around from one building to another. If he happens to run into anyone up here, well, that will catch his interest for certain, and Matt will approach.
Trying to come across as not a threat -- despite being a masked man all in black.] ...nice night for getting out... [He's bad at casual conversation in these situations. Usually he sticks to punching when he's wearing the mask.]
[Option C - In or Near The Tunnels]
[And since he was warned against the tunnels, Matt is definitely going to check those out. Yeah yeah, monsters. He knows.
Of course, he does have to make it past the outskirts of the city first. Maybe someone catches him before he can make it out that far.
Or maybe someone else is exploring, and may feel a hand on their arm and a low whisper,] Careful. There's something up that way... [Just a friendly alert that here be monsters.]
[Option D - Wild Card]
[Or catch him basically anywhere else.]

[Matt can't help a laugh at that last comment.]
Well. Friends aren't the goal tonight anyway. I didn't expect to run into anyone hanging out on the rooftops after dark.
[He was very wrong. He'll figure out the rhythms of this city too. He figure dit out back home.]
no subject
[Right here, right now, Ephemera probably wouldn't survive the drop. Not without his armor. But that doesn't stop him from idly calculating how much force he'd need to divert to stick the landing, how the armor would sound as it made its adjustments.
Another time, maybe.
He snorts.]
Get used to it. Wherever you're from, this place doesn't work like that.
no subject
[Lay of the land. All that. Something about this guy is oddly unsettling though, even if Matt can't quite put a finger on it. Which was odd for him. Usually that's something he has a knack for.]
How long have you been here?
no subject
[It's the mask that he's getting stuck on. Ephemera can't see a tactical purpose except concealing identity, and there are better ways of doing that.
Weird.]
Not long. Got dropped out of a train and ended up here. Dropped. Didn't jump.
[He did not stick the landing.]
no subject
[The mask is natural to Mat, the old go-to. And even if his identity here is, well, less secret if only because the population is limited, and the consequences of anyone discovering the truth probably won't splash back to hurt anyone he cares about.
Still, no sense playing all his cards at once.
Instead he's tilting his head, trying to figure out what to make of that.] Doesn't sound like a pleasant way to arrive. I was just walking down the street. The crowded street. Then suddenly I was here.
no subject
[But he's alive and he can work with that.]
Sucks. But I've been in worse places. This is almost nice.
