Nodding as her questions were answered, Selina was quiet, taking notes as Dawn filled her in. The sparks were noted, but on her own face nothing gave the impression that it was odd or peculiar. She just observed. Someone with less tact, or even experience would make some sort of droll remark. Not her.
Having all the time she needed was a boon. Not that she'd abuse the thought, but having more time than not enough was in their favor. The more prep she was able to accomplish would eliminate issues during the actual execution. Each of her heists was mere minutes, even seconds in actual execution. Most of the time it was getting to the actual object, which could, objectionably, be included in time. She didn't count it until she was physically in the same room, or vicinity of the object she was taking.
Sipping until her glass was empty, and Dawn was finished, Selina took ample notes, already contemplating a brief sketch of what her plan was going to be. Once the butler joined them, placing down the earrings, Selina nodded, listening to directions before pausing. They weren't emerald, but they were more functional, which was best.
Clearing her throat, and moving her fingers to her own left ear, she withdrew her own small earpiece, something she had on her more often than not. "And those won't conflict with my own earpiece I wear? I have no issue utilizing those, which are beautifully crafted, I'd rather just make sure all of our bases are covered."
Holding out the small piece of tech, she would let Dawn do what was needed, as long as it was in her line of sight to go over her own tech. "So..once we land, I will have a room, perhaps, to tackle my plan for the more public aspects of this ordeal? I brought my own 'uniform' you could say, but considering the locale, it may be more prudent for me to go in plainclothes, perhaps with a fabricated badge?" And then, go from there. No doubt this place would be teeming with people, working legitimately during the day. If she weren't going in during the day? ...now that could be even better.
"And Oracle or yourself and your partner will be walking me through the other aspects?"

Dawn drew her hand back, near her chin and gave a little wince; unsure of what she was really going to say about her own ear piece, until she could articulate her words properly. Not that she didn’t expect her to bring her own equipment; Dawn just wasn’t sure how Oracle felt about it. “Uhm, Oracle would prefer you use the ear rings in order to contact her. It helps keep her anonymous.” She said pushing the platter with the bird shaped ear rings over to her side of the table. “They’ll deactivate once you’re safely extracted or… the alternative.” Dawn didn’t have a doubt in her mind that the people Oracle chooses for her operations weren’t top notch, but the simple fact was that she had to stay realistic. Anything was possible. “Remember, if you are caught, we will deny any involvement with you, and communications, along with help from any of us will be cut off.”
The snow haired woman nodded at the mention of lodging. “You’ll have a suite not two miles from location, so it’s close by and your stay is … indefinite, according to the hotel’s files.” She smiled to herself, and leaned her elbows over the table, resting her chin on her hands. “We can get you whatever you need regarding special equipment once we land, but perhaps you would like to see what we have aboard?” Dawn asked, tilting her head and raising an eyebrow. “William and I can show you the gadgets I was speaking about earlier in the arsenal room. You’ll feel like Jane Bond, just looking at it.” She smirked.
“I’ll be helping you understanding and using gadgets, Hank is in charge of the extraction, and Oracle will be helping you step by step, she knows the building inside out. We’ll all be monitoring security so you don’t run into anyone.”

Entirely understanding the precautions with the earrings, Selina withdrew her hand and put her own earpiece in. After the suitable explanation was given she willingly palmed both earrings before swapping her own out for the new, gold ones. Bird themes were not her kink, but then again, she was consulting on this case, not running it herself entirely. One had to make concessions at times.
"Do I need to return them, or perhaps keep them as a memento?" Selina smiled, curious as how they would be finally deactivated, as well as turned on. No doubt remotely. And considering she came aboard the aircraft with no mask, and no leather suit, it was clear her identity was out there. There was a standard of working with others where covers were not blown, but she was too skeptical to take it at face value. She worked with those masks on the wrong side of the law, and that didn't always mean secrets were kept.
Nodding with certainty, it didn't need to be reiterated that if she blew the job, anything pertaining to their teamup would be denied. Not that she was planning on failing; they had gone through the hoops to find one, if not, the best thief in this side of the pond. And that was only because she wasn't in Europe at the time. Smiling with the thought of that, she nodded again, letting out a relieved sigh at the mention of lodging. "So I will have time to go over anything else, with no rush on an ETA for the start? Hank, yourself, and Oracle will be in communication on when we're going in?"
She honestly wasn't used to such a collaborative effort. Teamwork for a theft, well, she hadn't done that in years since she was first taught, and they had three teams of six; one to stand watch, another to distract, and another to execute the actual taking of the appointed object. She did feel much like James, or in this case, Jane Bond, having a briefing team, champagne on a flight, and the decadent jewelry-cum-tech.
"I'd love to see what you all have prepared for me. Considering the preparations I have seen so far, I may not even need to touch my own gear." Nearly purring herself, that was certainly saying something, considering she had an in to not only WayneTech, but LexCorp tech as well.
Finishing off her glass of bubbly, Selina waved a hand to the other woman. "Shall we? After the tour of toys, I can ask my questions of the building, and security, just so I don't need to be seen talking to myself through the entire duration of the gig."

Dawn smiled, and got up to stand next to the graying mustachioed butler. “You can keep them, melt it and turn it into a ring if you want. The nano-technology built in the ear rings is virtually undetectable, so you can do whatever you like with them after the mission.” She explained and began guiding Selina in to the armory. The snow haired woman nodded herself to the thief, assuring her that she’d get all the prep time she required before heading in. “Just let us know when you’re ready and we’ll be there to give you a hand. I’ll be at our own base with my computer, and Hank will be on location with a van. You could say that he’ll be our watch-out. Although his main job is to get you out of there safely. He’s got his own costume. I don’t think anyone would buy it, but as long as it doesn’t look like he’s up to no good, I think we’ll be fine on that front.” It seemed like Dawn was becoming more comfortable with Selina, as she continued to run her mouth. There was a lot of explaining to do, and not a lot of time to do it.
Reaching the armory, Dawn placed her hand against what seemed to be just another part of the wall until it opened up and revealed so many gadgets it felt like it was apart of a spy film set. There were pens, clothing, round shaped bombs, several umbrellas, lighters, and other neatly packaged weaponized everyday house hold objects. “This,” she explained to the feline fetal, “is yours. All of it if you need.” She grabbed a high heel, and held it in a presentable way, she tapped the bottom, and a knife shot out. “Left foot knife,” placing it down to grab the right heel and pulled off the sole, “right foot flash grenade.” She replaced the sole and placed it next to the knife shoe.
“We’ve got watches that can project sounds across halls for distractions, glasses that can see through walls, snake cams, escape tools, and knock out gas, lasers, wire taps, and whatever else you can imagine.” Dawn smiled looking upon the library of professionally lit gadgets and weapons. “Need to scale a wall?” She plucked a pair of velvet black gloves, “They’re not adhesive, and they don’t even leave marks anywhere. They’re powered by microstructure bonds and react to its surrounding. So you could climb up a wall made of glass… in theory.”

She had to be dreaming. Really dreaming. Sleepwalking, even. Running her hand along an arm, she went to the lengths to discreetly pinch herself just to make sure. The pain that shot up her arm from finely polished nails affirmed that yes, really and truly, she was not dreaming.
And she was surrounded by beautiful, beautiful wonders. Nodding to Dawn, she could understand the lengths they were going through. And she could admire just how far this Oracle had gone to make sure this entire endeavor would work out.
The shoe demonstration was mind-boggling. And yet, she could understand if she was going in plainclothes, how each and every piece would be vital. There was to be no sneaking around at night in the dark. This would be a covert, daylight mission, which held it's own set of benefits and pitfalls.
Glancing up to dawn as she mulled over an item or two, she pursed her lips. "As long as I am able to fully go over schematics and discuss the plan beforehand with Hank, yourself, and Oracle to coordinate, I'll be fantastic. Perhaps a nap, and the proper badges and whatnot to form the identity for penetrating the government building, and then I'm pretty sure this will go off without a hitch." She beamed, shaking her head slightly at the snow-haired woman. "And hell, I may even put it out there that I'd be willing to work with you all again if you're going to treat me so well."
And gold earrings she could keep. Perhaps she wasn't as keen on birds, but they certainly would make a cat-worthy trophy.

Dawn was pleased with the satisfying look on the raven haired woman’s face. It was always good to talk about toys. And Christmas had come early. Holding her hands behind her back, Dawn nodded back to the seats to Selina.
“Get all the rest you need. I have to head back to the cockpit anyway.” She said pointing the opposite way they came from with her thumb. “If anything to just keep Hank company. Otherwise I’d say it’s a good time for you to get some needed rest. Just call for Wintergreen if you need anything. Pillows, blankets, drinks. The works.” She said turning heel and walking out of the armory.
The butler simply bowed, shaking ever so slightly in the event that she needed any assistance in the weapons. He had been oddly quiet during this ride, not saying anything; his features seemed to have been set like a mask.

Sleep, now that was something she could handle. It was truly a luxury, not only for those that swapped their schedules as often as opinions. But for her, a nap aboard a luxury plane would be just the ticket. And for now, she had exactly all she needed within reach. A leather recliner. A bottle of champagne. Some manifests and a few schematics she could peruse while she was not napping.
Nodding to the direction Dawn was gesturing to, she turned to take one last glimpse of the full set of toys they were going to be able to use for this. Whomever Oracle was, Selina was highly sure she was going to stay on their good side, despite the nagging want to find out who the person was behind the name.
"Well Wintergreen, I am going to take up the offer of amenities while I go over a few things. Perhaps a blanket could be found, a pillow?" She asked politely, before going to settle in seat for the rest of the flight with her tablet and a stylus.
