"I know what I'm doing. I can actually try to help you, or I can quit and go to prison. So let me work." Alex would understand a waste it would be if he would try to kill Mr. Black, and he honestly didn't want to anymore.
"Oh, don't be so dramatic, princess. I'm just saying you should let me know about what shit you're up to so I can either warn you off trouble or help get you through it smelling like roses - we're all friends here, no? Now lay it on me - the full story. What've you been up to?"
Selina gulps slowly and works to try and move all of the gunk into an inconspicious location before heading to the bathroom to shower, keeping the gunk off of her clothing as best she could before washing it away and cleaning off. Once done, she would dress back into her normal clothing back in her room, checking on the Clone to see if she was awake or had moved around too much while asleep.
You secret away the bits of gunk along your body, though you wonder if anyone would notice if you didn't. At any rate, you go have a shower and attempt to wash the gunk off, only for it to prove entirely resistant to water. You try to peel it off, and it doesn't quite budge. You then will it to leave your body, and it does - you carefully let it pour down the drain as a light stream, trying your best to prevent it clogging anything. The gunk, seemingly responding to your whims, liquefies as it flows off your body, and soon all of it has disappeared without issue.
Having cleaned up, you check on the Clone, which is, fortunately, a much less creepy-sounding name for her than any you've had before. She seems to be quite awake, and also staring at the ceiling, raising and lowering her arms in wavelike motions. She smells a little awful.
Hmmm... how does one find a parahuman to annoy?
Perhaps he can find pigeonman or birdbrain or whatever his name is? If he can knock him out of commission for a few days it would make it more likely that kersplortch would try robbing a bank and possibly let him tag along for fun.
His reasoning established Steven takes to the rooftop of a nearby apartment building via a fire escape and dons his disguise and peeks over the edge looking at a nearby business to look suspicious.
Settling for pigeondude in lieu of actual challenges, you secretly don your disguise and climb on the roof of an apartment building, eying a perfectly innocent coffee shop sinisterly from your perch. You're not sure how long you'll need to wait like this. You hope your legs don't get tired. And that you don't fall off. You don't think pigeondude's too far off necessarily. In fact, you're pretty sure he should be somewhere among the rooftops. Maybe he's eating lunch.
