Glitter

(AKA Who gave the Martian Batman's credit card?)

M'gann sat in the living room watching a show about crafting. She had been trying to pick up some new hobbies recently, after burning the kitchen down. Again.

So, she had been learning the beauty of making snowflakes out of simple pieces of paper. She had made several in the course of watching the show, and now was watching for the secret of how the ones they made were so much prettier.

"The final step in our craft today is to add a touch of glue and sprinkle white and silver glitter over the snowflake."

M'gann looked at the TV, confused. What was glitter? She hadn't heard anything about the substance from the shows Uncle J'onn had sent to Mars. But she needed it if she wanted to complete her craft.

She took the credit card Batman had left for emergencies, because this was an emergency, and went to Happy Harbor's local craft store. There, she was directed to a whole row of the 'glitter'.

There was a rainbow of colors in different sizes and types. Any color she wanted was available to be purchased.

She quickly located the white glitter and opened the container curiously. The substance inside was like a powder that sparkled. A tiny touch adhered it to her skin.

She laughed and tossed a bit in the air. It fell down giving everything a sparkly hue. If all glitter was like this, she wanted to play with it.

She grabbed a buggy and filled it to the top with vials and jars of glitter. But that wasn't going to be enough for her new plan of what to do with it. She purchased what she had gotten and went back to the Mountain.

As soon as she arrived at the Mountain, she hopped on the computer and started searching on Google. Using the credit card she was able to purchase a literal ton of glitter, as well as several other items. She had it shipped rush, so it would be there the next day.

And then she waited.

The next day, while everyone was out, the package was delivered. M'gann quickly got to work on setting everything up.

She finished just as Robin, Wally, and Artemis were arriving at the Mountain.

"Hey, M'gann," Robin waved at her with a grin.

M'gann was nearly shaking with excitement. They took a seat in the living room, just as she thought they would, and she pulled the cord.

Glitter started to rain from the ceiling, coating the teens in a thin layer. M'gann flew in and started spinning in circles under the shower, laughing.

"What's going on?" Wally asked, holding a pillow over his head to protect his manliness.

"It's glitter!" M'gann said happily.

The others just looked at her with disbelief.

"Why is there glitter raining from the ceiling?" Artemis asked.

"I found some at the craft store, and it was so much fun, I thought it would be a good idea to get a lot of it and have it rain glitter!" M'gann explained.

Everything in the room was covered in about an inch of glitter. Robin decided to just go with it and started dancing in the glitter. His wrist computer started playing "Singing in the Rain."

Artemis rolled her eyes and left. Wally was still huddled under the pillow to protect from the glitter storm.

M'gann and Robin froze as Batman entered the room. He glared at the two, looked up at the glitter, and then glared at them again.

"Why is there a charge on my credit card for a ton of glitter?"

So, new story. Hope you like it. This is going to be completely cracky and random, so don't you dare go looking for plot or seriousness in any form.

Have a nice day,
