which house lives inside of you?
🕷️ > inner city apartment.
you're longing for excitement and are rarely satisfied with the most obvious answer. you have a great instinct for mysteries and a mind that sometimes works faster than you can keep up with. you're the life of the party and an amazing conversationalist. it won't always feel so dull; adventure is coming.

I do think the Machins were atheists, and that upbringing partially influenced Lonnie’s natural skepticism. In his youth, he harshly criticized organized religion, but from the position of someone who had never been raised nor participated in it.

What do they commonly misinterpret because of their own upbringing / environment / biases? How do they respond when realizing the misunderstanding?
🕸️ > weirdly specific but helpful character building questions
Lonnie was raised in a middle-class, white, American, atheist family who moved from the city to the suburbs and back to the city, from brownstone to cozy house to high-rise, gothic apartment with a balcony. The Machins always lived comfortably, and that comfortable lifestyle was, in fact, part of Lonnie’s radicalization — the break in his worldview that came with realizing his position of safety and privilege as compared to his friend living in a nation ravaged by imperialist war backed and funded by the USA. Lonnie has never experienced, firsthand, what it is like to be poor, unhoused, oppressed on the basis of race, faith, or nationality (though this isn’t to say she’s never been oppressed, especially since coming out and starting her transition). She tries her best to unlearn internal biases, but parts of her (especially when she was younger) can slip into considering herself, however unintentionally, “above” others and in a place to judge — like when she referred to the unhoused Gothamites she helped as “bums” in her head, and when she became a CEO and went from giving people on the street money to denying “handouts”.
Becoming so isolated and believing herself more enlightened and intelligent than others in her particular “everyone needs to be like me or humanity is doomed, and I have to give them the tools to reach that potential” way certainly did nothing to help this as she considered herself the arbiter of who deserved punishment and who needed her help. She considered herself “the voice of the people”, but she speaks for what she thinks is best, even if her ideas are generally in service of the real greater good. Lonnie in general tends to be highly judgmental of everyone around her in different ways, less to do with ego and more to do with her natural black-and-white thinking. It can be hard to get her to challenge her worldview, as she’ll often follow something to the end unless forced to confront it.
It’s been years since her stint as a CEO, and since getting more involved in the community, starting to connect with her bio-mom, and coming down from the clouds, she’s getting to be less instantly judgmental, but it is a process. Learning different perspectives only helps enrich her own, though, and Lonnie is voracious for knowledge and wisdom.
Upon realizing something is a misunderstanding, she’ll look to identify the source of the misunderstanding and reason new information into where she went wrong. Then, she’ll apologize, and go from there.

Lonnie likes video games, leaning towards the classics he grew up with — a lot of Playstation and SNES and Arcade games. He codes her own, simple stuff like Snake, because playing something “mindless” that still requires some thought can be relaxing. She has a soft spot for fighting games and is really good at quite a few, especially SSB, Guilty Gear, and Street Fighter. Number Go Up games like Cookie Clicker are also good time wasters.

🏚️ (from stephanie!)
🕸️ > send 🏚️ for our muses to meet in a creepy location as decided by this generator
It's a grove located out in the brushland. It's been there as long as anyone can remember. Local people make a point of staying far away from it. A scientist who went to visit it recently vanished for days, only to turn up hundreds of miles away severely traumatized...
Unlike Batman or Red Robin, Lonnie'd never fancied himself a detective above anything else. It was part of the job, and one he was good at, but he preferred the rush of action at the end of the investigation -- of his work paying off -- more than the work itself.
That was one thing that being Moneyspider distanced him from, somewhat. The web was his domain and he thrived there, with less error than he'd ever made in the tangible world. He spun, strung, and ensnared for sustenance in the satisfaction of himself and those he sought to help and in the satisfaction of taking down or exposing the big-wigs, politicians, and liars that preyed on them. He still ate his fill; it was action as vital and as devastating as any. It just didn't feel so direct anymore.
He missed the feeling of boots hitting pavement. Of swinging through skyscraper-littered skies on his grapnel evading an enemy, of the plastic smell of Semtex and the thrill of scaring the pants off of suits, their frightened faces in the reflection of her mask. So, after tirelessly piecing together the jigsaw puzzle that was this newest case, he went out. Into the dark of the brushlands, just himself with MAX on standby.
The treads of Lonnie's all-terrain chair's wheels made tracks in the dirt behind her, but she was too engrossed in following her current trail to notice. An enticing news story had been floated her way on her message board starring a dazed ecologist she'd contacted for questioning, whose intel led her to a secluded grove miles outside of Gotham. The poor man had been terrified to talk about it, but invaluable nonetheless. She'd researched the grove thoroughly, learning of it's status as something of an urban legend. She familiarized herself with the ins and outs of each species of plant, animal, and purported cryptid that frequented the area -- as much as she could gather, since every researcher or hiker who had dared set foot inside had ended up at inpatient or worse. She came prepared with nose-plugs, covered herself from head to toe, and was armed to the teeth with matches, portable flamethrowers, and anti-toxins. Necessary precautions, because all of this had Poison Ivy written all over it.
When Lonnie finally reached a clearing through the heavy foliage, he looked around through the ruby tint of infra-red night vision lenses. So far, so good, save for a few sitting birds. Flipping open the pouch strapped to her thigh, she drew out her newest invention; a specialty soil meter that would confirm or deny her suspicions. Wiping the silver spiked end free of smears, he leaned over to stick it into the ground, when suddenly --
Rustling leaves from where she'd come, decidedly human. Jolting upwards, Lonnie slipped her baton from the same pouch, pressing the button on its side to snap it into a staff. He tried with all of his might to silence his hard and heavy breathing through his mask, not trying to turn around lest he alert whoever -- or whatever -- had been following him.
He decided he'd let them speak first. After all, it could just be another poor sap, fumbling to his doom through the trees.
