@forthewinn liked for a birthday starter!!!

You can take the girl out of mystery solving, but you can't take the mystery solving out of the girl. That's how the saying goes, right? Irregardless, Daphne Blake has a one track mind when it comes to these kinds of things and she knows how to track down a good story. These things tend to fall into her lap.

She and the gang had parted ways a while back, what with mysteries being less and less interesting since it was always the same old schtick. Some rando in a mask with some ill gotten gain. It was too repetitive, and they all agreed on a temporary disbanding to be able to find what they were good at. So Daphne pursued journalism and used her impeccable instincts, and one of her father's oldest grudges, to get herself a job at one of the best media corporations in the country.

And that's when the perfect story seemed to find her. Red cape, flowing blonde locks. Another Kryptonian with a penchant for saving the day. No one really knows who Supergirl is, where she came from or how long she's been here. But it's one mystery that Daphne is determined to solve. And she knows exactly how to do it, because, after all, it's all about who you know.

"So." She pops up at Winn's cubicle, seemingly out of nowhere, with a powerhouse grin on her face and a reignited fire in her eye. It's far too much energy for a Monday morning, but she can't help it. It's the start of the biggest case of her life. And she's not gonna blow it. "I heard a rumor about you."
