Selina Kyle usually shows up without an appointment.
It isn't something that can truly be expected but it should be unsurprising when she shows up unexpectedly, sitting in your chair or lounging on your desk, regardless of what else may have been there to start with. Sometimes, though, the waiting for someone to show up part of all of that is just too much, too trying, too annoying.
When visiting Eddie (and therefore Crane), she'd prefer not to .... surprise anyone.
So while there is still no appointment, there is, at least, knocking on the door instead of just walking right into their establishment.
She's even doing it during business hours.

Date: 2009-08-14 11:45 pm (UTC)Nygma's voice is unmistakeable. The tone is distracted, annoyed - probably expects to see another of his idly wealthy clients coming in.
"We're open for business."

Date: 2009-08-14 11:53 pm (UTC)No matter what she's wearing.
"Though I have no business to discuss - no new business at any rate."

"Have a seat, Selina. I suspect you have something on your mind."
no subject
Date: 2009-08-16 06:46 am (UTC)"Of course. I find that I almost always have something to think about. That hasn't changed much."

Date: 2009-08-16 07:00 am (UTC)Selina leans back, crossing her legs as she does so, "I don't mind passing the tiem in your company but I was..." She looks at her hands in silence, frowning.

Date: 2009-08-16 07:44 pm (UTC)Nygma sighs.
"It would have been much better to have Black Mask strapped into a straitjacket in Arkham."

Date: 2009-08-16 07:53 pm (UTC)She said not long ago that she still believed in Harvey Dent. She's not sure if she could say it truthfully now.
no subject
Date: 2009-08-18 12:30 am (UTC)"There are relatively few of us for whom the 'life' is not all-consuming. Harvey's lost his chance at being one of the privileged few."
He sighs.
"Care for a drink?"

Date: 2009-08-18 05:27 am (UTC)Selina leans back in the chair, her eyes closed for a few moments. "There isn't anything to be done, is there?"
no subject
Date: 2009-08-20 01:41 am (UTC)"I don't know about that. We certainly can't un-do what's been done, but.."
He trails off, clearly ambivalent about the train of thought he's own.

Date: 2009-08-20 07:46 pm (UTC)"The one thing we can do is get Harvey back into Arkham. They might even be able to help him there."
Who is that man in green, and what has he done with Edward Nygma?

"I think I need to get the doctor to lower my dosage. I'm starting to sound like Batman."

Date: 2009-08-21 02:27 pm (UTC)"If not Arkham, then where? Blackgate? Harvey needs to be contained, and he needs treatment."

Date: 2009-08-24 03:56 am (UTC)Selina takes a drink from the glass letting out a breath.
"Damn it."

Date: 2009-08-25 01:02 am (UTC)Harvey's solution had a certain elegance that was hard to ignore, even if it wasn't according to plan.
no subject
Date: 2009-08-25 02:45 am (UTC)A startled laugh escapes Selina, unthinkingly. She isn't happy that Roman is dead but there is a relief, a release of stress from her life that she still feels awkward about. "He was an evil bastard."

Date: 2009-08-30 04:04 am (UTC)"So. Harvey. Are you up for trying to tackle that problem? Just the two of us?"

Date: 2009-09-01 06:12 am (UTC)Selina grins toward him, hard to tell if she's really joking or not.

Date: 2009-09-02 08:39 pm (UTC)And that's about all Selina's going to say about that. There is a ring on her finger but an actual walk down the aisle? That's a terryfing idea. They stuff of nightmares for both parties involved.
