The Audacity of Lian Harper

"You wanted to see me, Ms… Robinson, was it?"

"Sit down, Mr. Harper."

Roy did just that. This was the first time any one of Lian's teachers had ever called him in to school.

"So, what exactly did my daughter do?" Roy asked her teacher.

"Look, I apologize for having to call you in, but it was for a good reason." The teacher rubbed her eyes. "It's because, well, Lian's a good girl, very bright, but she has this penchant for making up stories."

"Stories? What kind of stories?" Roy asked.

"Stories about how you run around in a bright costume saving the world and chasing bad guys, and that her mother is some international assassin. Just this morning she was telling the rest of the class about how you apparently stopped someone called the Anti-Monitor from erasing the Justice League of America from existence!"

Roy sighed and rubbed his temples.

"I am so, so sorry, Ms. Robinson, believe me, when I get home I'll have a talk with Lian."

"See that you do."

And that following evening…

"Lian, your teacher talked to me today about you telling stories?" Roy asked.

Lian gulped.

"Lian, how many times do I have to tell you, it wasn't the Anti-Monitor, it was Krona, KRONA, who tried to erase the Justice League from time."

"I'm sorry, daddy." Lian apologized.

"No harm done, just get your facts straight the next time, kay?"
