I think you should start reading this because Kitcat is adorable.

She's a bit out of nowhere though, has Oracle ever had a Nerd Herd before?

[lonewolf23k]

Sure she does.

It's called the Internet.

[icon_uk]

No, that's her "realm", we've never AFAIK seen her delegate tech tasks as she's too much of a control freak. She looks after all her own hardware and installs her own upgrades, with an occasional spare pair of hands provided by the Batclan or the Birds.

There was that group of hackers she used for a while (the Cadre, I think?). And she has a good rep in the community.

[icon_uk]

True, but the hackers are just that, hackers, people she confers with, but doesn't trust with missions like this.

And her reputation is very good, she's just never used it this way in all the years prior to this. Don't get me wrong it's a great idea, but it's coming across as a little... sudden.

Unless it's someone we already know, in disguise...

(Actually, she reminds me a lot of Aleph, from GLOBAL FREQUENCY)

[foxhack]

Yes, she has, at least once - in an early story I've been meaning to post for a while.
