"Hmmm, Gotham is my expertise after having lived here for a century, and yet it's an embarrassment that I didn't know of this or how to fix it. That said I don't know everything about Gotham..." Mildred shrugged, as it was a complicated place full of mysteries, fake personalities and masked people. "So I know little about magic or fae nature, but..." she paused. "If that Old One is trapped there against their will, there is some demolishing to do, material and magical" she continued. "If they are as mad as I think they are, the only solution is to bring them out so we can communicate with, so we can operate with their logic, even if twisted" Mildred took a look at Cerberus. "And use it to our advantage. There has to be a loophole, a trick to the situation, or at least that's what my experience has lead to believe" she said, looking for confirmation from Cerberus, even if he seemed a tough read. "Faeries and their curses, their deals, their geas... It could be a vow of sorts, a punishment long forgotten" Mildred rested.
"What I'm getting at is that there is no way to know what ails them unless we talk to them. And that the only way of doing so is taking the risk and using a fellow fae as bait or a ticket in" Mildred finished.

Jon stay quiet for once seeing where this was going. If that thing was a prisoner and it needed help... did anyone try to communicate with it? could he teleport it out? He didn't know much really about anything magic related so listening was the only really option, Pixie boy was getting on his nerves though.

Your discussion is interrupted by a young uniformed officer in his mid twenties rushing up to your conference. He's brown haired athletic and clearly just out of the academy.
"Ma'am, we just got a call from dispatch. Lt. McPhierson is reporting a 'Supernatural' incident at detective Bradley's residence, stating officers need assistance. We've dispatched all nearby units, but she was asking for you to be notified."
He's definitely new. He's clearly taking the matter seriously but there was just a hint of incredulity in his voice when he said Supernatural.
Dyer ignores it and just nods to him, then turns to you.
"Well, this is what you were put together for. The basement can wait. Go!"
(OOC note. Jon Hawkns would have been on the road outside Bradley's home, though not in the grounds.)

"Well I guess I can be your taxi service but my rides are quite... taxing." he looked at Mildred. "I hope you have the stomach for it love." He said with grin.

Cerberus
He simply nodded. They didn't need a second person out of comotion on their second days of work.
-Yes m'am! -
He said, giving the official salute, then turned to the others. From the sound of it, he wasn't invited in the ''taxi''.
-I guess I'll go by car then..-
He said, shrugging and made his way out after taking note of the adress.

"If you'd rather take the long way be my guest, but I'm much faster than anything you can use." he said to Cerberus on his way out. If Cerberus stays he will be taken as well he gets up and offers his hand to both individuals. To the Captain "By the way Captain I'm a little behind on bills maybe we can talk about my pay, at a nice movie, breakfast, your place? your choice of course." and with a wink they'll/Disappear.
Strength 1 +6 from teleportation to get to the location Social skills 3 (Seduction specialty) to whittle down the Captains hard exterior and hopefully see her soft side some time.

It seemed that Mildred's partner had ended up tangled into something while flying solo, but maybe the rest of them could save his ass. Losing a second team mate in a week would be even more of a terrible way to start. "If our stomachs can handle your lack of bedside manners" Mildred said with a smile, as it seemed that flirting was unavoidable for him. She did include Cerberus on her look, as they could need all the help they could get, but it seemed that John did really prioritize any woman around. "I'm sure that they will be able to handle any transportation trick you have up your sleeve" she finished. Of course, Mildred had no idea of what kind of powers he had, so she was just being her usual self confident and hoping for the best.

Cerberus
He simply nodded taking the offered hand and waiting to be transported.

Jon takes both of your hands and there is a sensation that is a sensation that is unpleasantly like being drunk (ask a glass of water) and then darkness.

Jade
You open your eyes, the lights here are florescent strip lights. The type you get in hospitals, corner stores and mental asylums the world over and from the look of the ceiling a corner store is off the list.
“Hey, you’re awake. The doc said she wasn’t sure when you might be up.”
It’s a nice voice to wake up to, comforting, nothing remotely like the Jokers. You look around to see a man in a suit, his hair is close cropped, not military, just, functional. He’s obviously athletic but his smile seems genuine. Attached to his lapel is a visitors badge.
“Hi, I’m Tim, how are you feeling?”

Jade's song echoed through the astral realm she resided in and her words broke her free from the chaos she had just endured. Her eyes opened and adjusted to the lights over head.. She thought for a moment that it didn't work but as she began to sit up she noticed her cybernetics were back. Never did she think she'd be happy to be in her shell again but this was comforting for her. A voice pulled her away from her assurance to a man who stood there and looked at her. She didn't recognize him but she listened. "Tim? Who are you? Where is Cerberus?" she asked as she was still trying to get used to being back..

"Tim Blake, Wayne Industries cybernetics devision and if you mean Detective Raven, not the three headed dog that guards the underworld , he had to go home. I imagine the other Cerberus doesn't get out much."
He grins. Apparently he uses humour as an ice breaker, and is hoping this will work as one. He is definitely on edge.
"So your captain told us you got linked up to the Joker some how, so asked that we run some diagnostics, because, you know, The Joker."
And that is why he's nervous. If you were under the Joker's influence you'd be scared of you too.

Her brow rose as Tim had tried to break the ice with a joke about the dog of Hades and her partner for this endeavor. Jade looked at Tim and could tell he was a little reluctant to be near her since she was linked to Joker's psyche. But as she thought about it, she wondered how she jumped from one mind to another when dealing with that astral fiend. "I was linked with the Joker? But how? I was linked with Mr. Hernandez " she asked but then wondered if that beast was a part of the Joker's psyche.. She looks at Tim and at any machinery he had hooked up to her for this evaluation. She coulnd't help but shudder slightly at the sight of an examination room since she was in that odd mindscape. "Am I infected?" she questioned, wondering if the extended time in the Joker's mind caused her change, not for the better.

Tim grimaces slightly as if about to answer a difficult question.
"OK so this is a bit above my pay grade. But long story short, magic. Yea... I know how it sounds but they tell me it's real and well, better safe than sorry. Right?"
"Anyway apparently you had some kind of mental infection, and they used the Joker's mind to poison it out of you. Mr Hernandez had it too and they tell me he's cured too so..."
He shrugs, apparently if not used to weird stuff like magic and human telepathic cyborgs and the like, then at least used to not thinking about it too much.
"As to if you're infected, that's kinda what we're looking at figuring out. It wouldn't take a genius to reprogrammed some of your software, and the Joker is a genius so, I'm here to check your software. I just need to plug you into this..."
He holds up a cable that is attached to a laptop that appears to have a rather impressive looking external router attached.
"With your permission of course... This will link you up to one of the Wayne Industries supercomputers that will scan you for anything out of the ordinary."

Jade stayed silent as she listened on and sighed. This was a lot to take in. "Mental Infection?" she questioned while listening to the explanation and she just sat in silence and looked down at her hands, folding them onto each other. The talk about the possibility of her software also being compromised. That would be impossible for mental energy to corrupt her software but then again the word was mentioned that change all the rules.
Magic
Her red eyes looked up towards Tim as he held up a laptop and a cord that extended out from its USB port. "Yeah.. fine do what you need to do" she said, less than enthused about the connection given what happened to her. Pulling her hair back and touching the middle of her neck, Jade opened a port that Tim would be able to use.
