Happy Thanksgiving and if you don't celebrate thanksgiving, Happy Thursday.
…Mount Justice
Kaldur and Kon where in the pool, Kon was playing with the water trying to pick it up with his TTk power as Kaldur pulls out his water bearers which he then uses to create his hard-water swords.
"Again."
"Kaldur, I've been at this for an hour and I'm not getting any better."
"If you can manipulate air and solids then-"
"My air, my oxygen, not somebody else's. Do you have any idea how hard it is to do that? Extremely! There is only one molecular per cube." Kon tells him. "And the only reason I can move objects it's because I can scan it and tell it to move."
"Then scan the water."
"Water is free flowing." Kon says as he gets on one knee touching the water pool. "The molecules in water are always moving it's hard to get a grip on them."
"Just try to pick up a smaller piece then."
"Ok." Kon picks up a glob of water standing up as it being levitated above his hand.
"Good." Kaldur says to him, Kon was breathing calmly a little hard to control it shifts in the glob of water. "Throw it at me." he tells him from across the pool.
Kon shifts his feet pulling one back and pulling his hand back as well to get enough momentum and pushes it with his TTK towards Kaldur, he easily dodges it looking behind him where the water was splashed on the cave's floor.
Kon picks up another one turns it around himself in a circle, and he sends it flying at Kaldur with a fist, he turns to look at him and he gets splattered falling down on his back.
Kon flies over to him, looking down at him. "Are you alright?" he asks Kaldur as he lay on his back.
"Yes, fine." Kaldur says a bit stiff.
Kon crunches down. "I guess I don't know my own strength."
"Understatement of the century."
Kon sits down. "Thank you Kaldur."
"No problem little brother."
"Let's go again."
"Yes, but I will not go easy on you." Kaldur stands up. "Let's go."
…
"Kon-El, I'm very disappointed in you." Superman starts.
"Hold on, hold on, hold on." Kon says as he puts on his black boots and puts on his S t-shirt then shakes his head water dropping off it, he sighs and looks at Superman. "Ok go."
"So I hear you have a new boyfriend."
Kon gasps. "How did you-?" he asks turning to look at Zatanna.
"Not from me." Zatanna tells him.
"Don't jump on Zatanna." Superman tells him.
"How, Kal?"
"Riki told me."
"Riki?" Kon asks confused.
"Riki who?" Zatanna asks as she moves to stand next to Kon.
"How many Rikis do you know?"
"My Riki? Happy Harbor High School Riki? Riki who shaves his legs to swim faster, Riki? How did you find out from him?" Kon asks confused.
"I called you on your cell looking for you, and Kim answered, but she was in the middle of some argument with someone. Then there was a cracking sound and the phone went dead. Then there was another man's voice saying 'hello'."
"Riki?"
"Bob."
"The janitor?" Kon asks.
"More twists than Oh Henry." Zatanna says.
"He told me something in a heavy Spanish accent, all while Kim was yelling at someone in French-"
"I'll be, the UN erupts."
"Then Riki came on. He was there finishing his swimming laps. And when I told him I was looking for you, he said you were talking to your boyfriend Michael Shepard. Now why were you hiding it from me?"
"I wasn't hiding it." Kon says with a smile.
"You jumped on Zatanna when you thought she told me. You were hiding it."
"He did not jump on me, Superman." Zatanna says defending Kon.
"Yeah, and I wasn't hiding it. The only reason I reacted to Riki the way that I did is that he's not in this world, he's in my other world. It's as if I, out of the blue, told you I was having tea with Mr. Brown."
"Who?"
"Mr. Brown, cobra-venom, yellow eyes, brown fur…wolf?"
"Remind me to tell Canary to have a psychological profile written up for Kon-El." Batman says to Robin, Kon turns to look at him with a frown.
"You keep so much from me with these separate worlds of yours. It's not right." Kal tells him.
"I thought I wasn't allowed to merge the worlds."
"Well, I'm part of both worlds."
"I will include you in it."
"Well, start now. I want to meet Michael Shepard."
"You've met him, several times."
"Not in this capacity. I need to re-meet him."
"Well, I'm sure that day will come."
"Next week."
"What?"
"You have a gentleman friend of significance."
"Rhett is my gentleman friend, yes." Kon says in a British accent, Zatanna giggles.
"So it's only proper that you introduce him to your brother. Unless he's insignificant, I don't want to meet a passing ship. That's a waste of my time. Is Michael a passing ship? Is he insignificant?"
"Yes." Kon tells him, Kal looks at him not believing him. "He's going away to Stanford soon, which I just found out is in California all the way across the country."
"You just found this out?" Robin asks him. "I though you knew everything."
"I do, except that."
"So let me get this straight, you can recite the Fibonacci Sequence but you don't know that Stanford is in California?"
"My brain has abnormal knowledge."
"We will pick a date next week." Superman says as he starts to walk to the zeta tubes.
"Kal-"
"Next week."
"But-"
"Next week." Superman says walks into the zeta tube.
"I'm I that exhausting?" Kon asks everyone.
"Yes." They all tell him at the same time.
"Is there a reason why I'm here instead of having sex with my boyfriend?"
"You like saying that don't you?" Zatanna asks him.
"I have a boyfriend." He says happy.
"If you still have swim practice until 6, then how did you stop a fire in Central City at 5?" Kid Flash asks, Kon gets a slight panic face on him and shakes his head a little.
"What?" Batman asks as he turns to look at Superboy.
"Never mind, it was the fire fighters not you." Kid Flash says as he hits his forehead. "Hello Wally."
"We need to have a talk." Batman tells Superboy.
"You're not gonna yell at me are you?"
Batman looks at him and turns to the holo-computer. "We have received intel that the Queen of Vltava is being threatened by the League of Assassins."
"Queen Perdita?" Kid Flash asks. "Is it her uncle?"
"We don't know yet, the transmission I discovered was one way."
"So, protect Queen Perdita."
"Yes, at her endangered species charity event, this will take place at her castle in Vltava." Batman tells them as they all gather around him. "We have sources that say The Shadows want to make an attempt on her life, I will send you in to protect her. You will be going undercover as party-goers and cannot let you're covers be blown." Batman says to them, pulling up a picture of a castle. "It's a high society event, photographers and witnesses, you will have new identities."
"Are we playing dress up?" Zatanna asks with a smile.
"Yes you will."
"Yay!" Megan and Zatanna both says happy.
"Take these." Batman says giving each of them flash drives, they take one. "They have information of on all of the guests and blueprints of the castle. Study them."
"Homework?" Kid flash asks look at Batman.
"Yay." Artemis says with a sigh.
…Vltava
'This is so not what I had in mind.' Zatanna says in the minlink. She was in the kitchen wearing a black skirt, white button up shirt, a black tie and high heels which hurt, a lot.
'Oh the brightside at least the appetizer are good.' Superboy says as eats a cucumber with some pink stuff on it wearing a black suit and a red tie.
'Salmon Mousse.' Robin says with a smile wearing and dark blue suit and green tie.
'Whipped fish?' Artemis asks wearing a black skirt, white button up shirt, black tie and black boots-like Zatanna holding a plate on her hand.
"Ew." Kon says out loud, a women looks at her, he smiles sweetly at her, she smiles back then walks away.
'Anyone got eyes on Queen Perdita yet?' Kid Flash asks on the mindlink as he sits on a chair reading a pamphlet with a polar bear on the cover.
'No.'
'That's strange.'
'Kon, scan the place.'
'It's almost starting. She-'
'Is being captured by Shadows on the third floor.'
Robin, Superboy, Megan, run in their suits and dress while Artemis and Zatanna drop their trays and run off with them. They run up the stairs, Megan putting on her Miss Martian outfit, Robin puts on his domino mask, Kid Flash putting on his googles running ahead.
"Kid Flash are you-"
"She's ok." Kid Flash says as he picks her off the floor.
"Ok, how come you're not like this on other missions?" Superboy says to him looking at 5 shadows on the floor passed out.
"Shut up Kon." Kid Flash says annoyed.
They laugh at him, Superboy smirks, Queen Perdita giggles.
New Orleans…Oblivion Bar
"Double combo: Triple carom on the four-three-two-one-six with a bank massé." Kon says as he looks at the pool table, he was wearing his punk/goth clothes, black pants, black boots, black skull sleeveless t-shirt.
"You don't need to call all your shots, kid. Just the first one."
"That is the first one." Kon tells him as he bends down with the pool stick shooting all the balls in the pockets.
"Whoa, whoa." The man says as he looks shocked. "Aw, you gotta be kidding me."
"Eight ball in the corner."
"Not magical my ass."
"Leave your money on the table." Kon says as he walks off from the pool to the bar where Zatanna was waiting for him sitting on the stool.
"How'd it go?" Zatanna asks with a smile.
"I thought I'd be fun, this used to be fun right?" Kon asks as he sits down, next to her.
"We were high."
"I'm bored."
"Wanna get high?"
"Remember what happen last time?"
"Yeah, I summoned a demon, from a hell dimension." Zatanna says to him. "I haven't been able to do that again."
"You've been summoning demons?" Kon asks her.
Zatanna turns to look at him. "No." she lies, obviously.
"Please don't do anything-"
"Stupid?"
"You can't handle."
"Zatanna?" a 20 something year old man says as he looks at her. "How's your dad?"
"Still traveling."
"OH I thought he was Dr. Fate."
"You did not just say that." Kon tells him.
The man looks at him. "There isn't an ounce of magic in you. How'd you get in?"
"I have friends in high places." Kon says as he stands up from the stool. "Come on Z."
"I'm just saying the last guy that was in your dad's place ended up dead by a Chaos Lord you might wanna-"
"Save it Necro." Kon pushes him away, he takes Zatanna's hand and they walk off into the walk disappearing.
"Kon-"
"We are in Louisiana, New Orleans. Let's do something." He says to her with a smile, she looks at him. "We can go to the Zoo, the French Quarter, look at some old buildings."
"Seriously?"
"I was in a pod looking at all of these things in my brain, just snap pictures of them." Kon tells her, she looks at him. "Not everything's about you Zatanna."
"Ok, let's go." Zatanna says as she walks off, Kon follows. "Let's go to the French Quarter, sounds like fun."
"That's the spirit." Kon says locking arms with her, she smiles.
"Egnahc sehtolc." Zatanna says change clothes and their clothes change in a flash. There goth/punk clothes to regular civilian clothes, jeans, t-shirt and shoes. "Thank you."
"For?"
"Being you."
Happy Harbor High School…lunch
Conner is sitting on the table with a bunch of nerds with sweaters, glasses, and khaki pants. A chess board in between them both, Conner looked a bit bored as the boy in front of him was thinking.
"Hi." Mike says as he sees his boyfriend as he puts his hand behind his back.
"Hi." Conner looks up at him. Mike sits down next to him gives him a kiss on the cheek. "He said that I didn't know how to play."
"So you're proving him wrong."
"Of course." Conner says as Mike starts kissing his cheek again, he kisses his jaw and goes up to his ear.
"Does this bother you?" he whispers.
"No." Conner says to him. "Why would it."
"You're very hard to please." Mike says as he pulls away from him.
"Checkmate. You lose sucker!" Conner says to him and stands up. "Let's go." He says to Mike.
"I love that guy." Mike says and follows Conner.
The nerd boys looked panic as they look at the board confused. How could the pretty boy have won? Mike ends up putting his arm around his boyfriend giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"You gotta stop doing that."
"Kissing you?"
"Telling people you love me."
"Why?"
"Because if you keep saying it over and over and if you keep saying it then I'll start believing it and I can't start believing it, especially since your leaving next year."
"Conner."
"You know I've only ever been in one other relationship."
"Yes, I do."
"That was Wendy." Conner reminds him. "When I told her I loved her, she dumped me."
"That was different. I'm a guy, she's a girl. I love you, she didn't. I don't care that you keep secrets from me, she did."
"You don't care that I keep secrets from you?"
"No." Mike scoffs, Conner stops walking then looks at him. "Yes, but not that much."
"Right." Conner nods continues walking.
"You make me crazy you know that?!"
…November
Conner and Zatanna are asleep together, Zatanna was curled up with Conner, him being naturally hot, it being November in Rhode Island. Zatanna wakes up and leans toward Conner.
"Hey. Wake up." Zatanna says shaking him.
"Huh?" Conner mumbles.
"Wake up." She tells him again.
"No."
"Come on, you're missing it."
"Is 'it' sleep? Cause you'd be right."
"Smell the air. Smell it." She says as she pulls the blankets off him.
"It smells cold."
"Come on."
"What? No, I'm tired."
"Come on!" she yells at him, she pulls him out of bed.
"Aren't you cold?" he asks her, he was super she was not.
"Geez, you're so obsessed with the cold."
"Because it's cold!"
"I know."
Conner growls. Zatanna leads him out the door and out the backdoor leading to the trees, Zatanna walks to the middle of the trees and stops.
Conner follows grudgingly. "Aren't you turning numb?" he asks her.
"Nope." Zatanna says with a smile as she looks up at the black sky.
"Are your feet still attached to your body or did they snap off coming out the cave?"
Zatanna looks down at her purple and orange socked feet. "They're still there." She says looking back up.
"Why are we out here?" Conner asks as she had grabbed his hand, holding him in place.
"Take a deep breath." She tells him.
"What?"
"Do it."
"Yeah." He says taking a deep breath.
"Oh, yeah. I smell snow." Zatanna says taking a deep breath with a smile.
"What?"
"It's coming. I always know. I can smell it, and I'm never wrong."
"It wasn't in the forecast."
"It's just my favorite time of the year. The whole world changes color."
"I think I'm going back to bed." Conner says as he tries to go back to the cave but Zatanna is still holding his hand.
"Flakes, flurries, swirls, crystals, whatever form it comes in. I'll take it. We go back, snow and me. We have a beautiful history."
"Saw two forecasts, there was no mention of snow. Cold, but no snow."
"Sleigh rides, ice skating, snowball fights. I'll even take curling. God, I love curling!"
"Kevin O'Brien on Channel 6 said it would be dry. Cox Cable, Live at 5, same thing. No snow, nothing." Conner says to her annoyed.
"Hot cocoa, hot toddies. Best time of the year!" Zatanna yells out exited.
"Jimmy Mountain in Chopper One said it would be weeks before-" He stops midsentence and looks up as the snow starts to fall. "Kevin and Cox are idiots."
"Welcome, friend."
"I'm going inside now."
"But-"
"One more whiff, and then so are you."
"Kon…"
Conner pulls away and walks back into the cave. Zatanna smiles as she looks up at the snow falling and sighs happy.
…Morning
"I don't need a jacket." Conner says as he puts his backpack on.
"Take the damn jacket Kon." Clark says to him annoyed, Conner looks at him. "It's red and the fur in black." He says with a smile.
"Fake fur I hope."
"Yes."
"Why?"
"It's snowing, that makes people cold."
"I'm not a child, Kal."
"If the shoes fit." Clark mumbles as he gives him the jacket, Conner takes off his backpack and puts on the jacket, grabs his backpack.
"How do I look?" Zatanna says with a smile. She was wearing jeans, snow boots, gloves, scarf, and her hooded leather jacket.
"Amazing."
"And me?" Megan asks as she wore a skirt, leggings, boots, and hooded peacoat. "I'm cold." She shivers, putting her arms around herself.
"Very believable."
"Thank you." Megan says and bows.
"Nice jacket." Zatanna tells him.
"Thank you." Clark says to her.
"He's making me wear it." Conner says annoyed. "Let's go."
"Hey gloves." Clark tells him giving him gloves, Conner takes them and puts them on.
He puts his hands on their shoulders and teleports out leaving them behind. Zatanna and Megan look at each other, Clark looks at them both, Conner reappears. "It was the gloves." they laugh at him, Conner teleports back to the school in the parking lot, Zatanna and Megan both still laughing. "It was the gloves!" he yells at them both.
"Oh Kon." Zatanna says to him trying to cheer him up.
"Shut up." He mumbles and walks off.
…Happy Harbor High School
Conner is outside under a tree reading a book, his back against the tree. Everyone else was inside the cafeteria where it was nice and warm plus the halls where filled with Christmas decorations which kinda pissed him off what happen to Thanksgiving, turkey, pilgrims, the leaves changing and everything. He stopped reading his book and realizes that he doesn't like holidays.
"Hey." Mike says as he sits down with him with a small bag of chips, his jacket on, gloves and scarf.
"Hey." Conner says back, his gloves where back on his jacket as he holds his book.
"Aren't you cold?"
"No."
"What are you reading?"
"Four Text on Socrates."
"Why?"
"I like reading." Conner says to him. "Plus, he was killed because he stood up for what he believed in. The guy was wiser than most Gods in Greek, he came from nothing, and the rich kids loved him so much they hated their fathers for killing him. He believed in virtue being self-knowledge. All of his friends-which were rich wanted him to leave before he was condemned to death. He said no, because he loved Athens so much he couldn't live with being exiled." He rambles he turns to look at Mike, he looked stunned. "Too much?"
"Exactly how smart are you?"
"Did you want something?"
Mike gives Conner a kiss. "I have to tell you something."
"Yeah?"
"I'm going to my grandparent's house for Thanksgiving." Mike tells him then waits for a reaction.
"Yay you?" Conner says not sure what to say to him.
"You're not upset?"
"Why would I be?"
"Because I didn't tell you earlier, because I'm not inviting you, because I'm leaving for five days." Mike says listing all of the reasons.
"Nope."
"Oh well then…ok."
"Ok." Conner turns back to his book. Mike takes off his scarf and puts it around Conner's neck. "I'm not cold."
"I know." Mike says giving him another kiss. "You are very hot."
"Yeah, I know." He says as he continues reading.
"Hey come over tonight."
"I'm not getting back to my book I'm I?"
"I'm sure you've already read it." Mike tells him. "Come over after practice, we can watch movies and-"
"Make out?"
"It's been a while."
"Yes, it has."
"Your parent's aren't invited, are they?"
"They have an anniversary." Mike says to him. "They took the whole weekend off their work, and rented a hotel room in Vermont. My mom doesn't know though, my dad arranged it all. Like a mini-vacation."
"From you?"
"Hilarious."
…Mike's house
Conner is funny and sarcastic and quick with the barbs. He was smart, and brains' being even hotter than looks, Mike was a goner. It was wild when they hit the door of Mike's room right after practice. The second the door clicked, they were wrestling off jackets, then a sweater.
Conner takes off the sweater, then looks at Mike. "What the hell? How many shirts to do you have?"
Mike takes off his t-shirt and muscle shirt afterword. "I was cold." He tells him, Conner chuckles at him.
Mike grabbed and pushed him to the wall before his hands went to his belt, taking off his jeans, putting his hand on his chest to make sure he didn't move.
"Mad?"
"Horny." Mike says as he shoved his briefs and jeans to his knees, and Conner takes off his own boxers and jeans. "Come on." He says pulling Conner close and kissing him roughly. "I have things to say." he says between a kiss. "after." He adds.
"Sure. After."
Mike's hands moved from his arms to Conner's hips, and he slowly undulated against him.
"Oh fuck." Mike said and chuckled into Conner's neck, rubbing him chin over his shoulder. "I won't last if you keep doing that." Every tingling, electric shiver made him jolt against him, and the muscles in his ass rippled around his shaft.
"Please." The word was barely audible, more a shaky huff of air than a sound. His passion-glazed eyes lifted to me. "Do it."
Mike couldn't pull out a couple of inches and then plunge back inside him like they did in all the best pornos. He was too swollen with arousal and he was too tight. They hadn't been together since they got back together. All he could do was make the strokes as smooth as possible.
"MIKE!" Conner yelled, and his muscles squeezed tight, wringing a response from him, the sizzling heat simmering in the base of his spine.
Mike could feel his body fit into his, wanted the give and take, the slow build and the blind rush of nothing but adrenaline and the euphoric high before the crash. He wanted to fuck him so hard only he would ever do. Once would never be enough.
"Conner." he ground out.
"Mike."
Conner was loud, and Mike loved it because there was no need to guess what he wanted, and his groans were of no consequence because they were about walls breaking and nothing bad. Mike curled over him, his face pressed on neck, kissing gently, before he took hold of his hips and began the rhythm of thrust and retreat.
"Harder." he moaned.
"Come!" Mike demanded because he was too close, too engorged inside him, but he needed him sated first.
"I… Mike…."
Mike shifted his angle and didn't have to guess if he got the spot he was after. He lost his language; there was only a guttural cry before he splattered over their stomachs in between them. His climax was seconds behind his, and as they laid together, aftershocks wracking through them, Mike realized he hot, sweating and now sticky.
"Oh," Mike said softly and pulled away from Conner laying on his side of the bed. "That was awesome!" Mike yells.
"Yeah." Conner says.
"So." Mike sits up looking down at Conner with a smile. "I love you."
Conner gives him a shock and panic look. "Thank you." He says after a long while, Mike looks at him, he was not expecting that…at all.
…Mount Justice
Zatanna is walking beside Conner as he tells her what he did last night.
"Aw." Zatanna says as she smiles standing next to Conner.
"No, no aw."
"It's an aw."
"Zatanna."
"What did you say?"
"I said it's not an aw."
"No, when he said I love you."
"Well, I said, thank you."
Zatanna looks at him. "Oh no, please tell me you didn't."
"You should have seen his face, it was like I beat him at a swimming competition. He looks at me and smiles and says I love you. I look back at him and say thank you."
"How polite of you."
"What is wrong with me?"
"Kon."
"I'm I incapable of saying those words?"
"You're just staring out, you need time."
"Yeah." Conner says and thinks. "Yeah." He says more confident.
"I love you."
"Thank you."
"Ok you probably just emotionally stunned."
"You just said-"
"You are a cold robot." Zatanna says and walks off.
"That's just…" he pauses in thinking of a word. "Mean!" he yells out.
Happy Harbor…Jail
"That was awesome!" Riki yells with a smile.
"My parents are going to kill me." Sam says sitting down hand on his head.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Conner yells at Mike.
"They called us faggots."
"We're in jail Mike!"
"I'm never getting into Harvard now." Sam says worried.
"At least we landed a few good punches." Riki shrugs.
"Alright, you guys get one phone call each, ready?" a police officer says as he stands by the jail cell.
"I'm calling my parents." Riki says as he walks over to the door then pauses. "I should call me dad though right?"
"That would be a safe bet." Sam says to him as he stands up.
"I'll call mine."
"My dad's gonna kill me." Mike says as he turns to look at Conner.
Conner had realized he didn't have anyone to call, Zatanna was underage, so was Megan, all his friends who were over the age of 18 where in jail with him. Not Clark. He sits down. Not Bruce.
"Hey." Sam says as he walks out of the jail with Riki as the officer walks with them. "Come on."
Conner looks up at them. "I don't have anyone to call." He tells them.
…Star City
Red arrow punches a guy then turns and kicks as a guy pulls out a gun and Red arrow pulls his bow and arrow when a phone starts to ring, they stop and look at each other, the other gang members stop and check their phones on their pockets and Red arrow pulls out his phone hiding on his boot.
"It's me." Red arrow tells the gang members. "Hello?" he answers. "Kon? You're where?"
Happy Harbor…jail
"You're in jail." Roy says to him no longer wearing his Red arrow outfit but his t-shirt and jeans.
"I know." Conner says as he walks towards him.
"You missed a mission last night." Roy tells him.
"I know." Conner says a little annoyed walking past him.
"You smell like shit." Roy says as he looks at him with a face.
"I know." He tells him angry as he continues walking outside the police station.
…Mount Justice
"You owe me 300 bucks." Roy says as they walk into the cave. "You need a shower." He adds, Conner turns to look at him. "Maybe two."
"Don't tell anyone."
"Ok."
"I couldn't call Zatanna or Megan or anyone else, I had to call you."
"So I was the last one you considered?"
"No." Conner tells him. "I knew if I called Zatanna or Megan they'd want to talk about it and I didn't want to talk about it. You were the only person that came to mind."
"So I'm your person?"
"Yeah."
"Make sure you throw away the clothes." Roy tells him. "You smell...ugh."
…afternoon
"Hey." Kon says to Roy holding a t-shirt on his hands.
Roy sniffs him. "You smell nice."
"I showered." Kon tells him as he puts on his S t-shirt. "For 3 hours."
"It paid off." Roy says as they walk to the briefing room.
"Hey, how was your night in jail?" Wally asks as he eats chips.
"You shank someone right off the bat? You gotta let the other cons know not to mess with you." Artemis says to him.
"Seriously?" Kon turns to look at Roy.
"Don't blame me, the computer pulled up your records." Roy tells him.
They laugh at him.
"That's not funny. They almost charged me with assault and battery." Kon says to them.
"What!?" Superman yells when he over hears him, Kon turns to look at him and sighs. "You mean that's where you've been all morning, in jail for assault and battery?"
"Nobody was assaulted."
"I can't have this, Kon. I won't-"
"They called me and Mike faggots."
"I will destroy them." Superman says.
Kon smirks. "Thanks, but not necessary, I broke his jaw."
"What?" Superman says worried, Kon shrugs. "What is wrong with you?"
"Just be glad I didn't break all of their bones." Kon tells him. "Cause I can do that. Literally. With my TTK, I can snap my fingers-crack."
"That's…seriously?"
"Theoretically specking, since you know I haven't actually tired it. Cause you know that would be evil and stuff."
"Evil and stuff?" Superman asks him unimpressed.
"I could do it right now."
"No." they all say at the same time alarmed.
"Then stop complain." Kon says to Superman and walks to the kitchen.
"He just got out of the joint." Roy says to Superman. "Let him ease back into society. "
"Dickhead." Kon says to him.
"Convict." Roy says back.
Kon scoffs and Roy laughs as he follows jumps on him putting his arm around him.
"I think I've been replaced." Zatanna says as she watches the boys.
…Thanksgiving
"Ok, so, is everyone ready to say what they're thankful for?" Zatanna asks as she looks around at Megan, Roy, Kaldur and Kon.
"I am thankful for this food that Zatanna and Megan prepared for us." Kaldur says with a smile to the two girls, they both smile back at him.
"I am thankful for all my friends being alive this years." Roy says to them.
"Depressing, good try." Zatanna tells him. "I'm Thankful for coffee."
"I'm Thankful for life. Art, poetry, friends, health, freedom, peace, seasons, wisdom, beauty, joy, spiritual inspiration, family, love, creativity, harmony, nature, generosity, simplicity, energy, joy, and more joy." Megan says with a smile.
"I am thankful that we're not Native Americans who got their land stolen in exchange for smallpox infested blankets." Kon says.
They look at Kon.
"Amen." Roy says.
They start to eat.
"We have pecan pie right?" Roy asks as he eats a slice of ham.
"Yup, pumpkin, apple and cheery." Megan says with a smile as she a spoon with stuffing.
"I love apple pie." Conner says.
"See, not so hard, now is it?" Zatanna asks.
"I so don't want to talk about this." Conner says as he eats.
"Is this the whole Mike thing?"
"You told him."
"You guys are friends now."
"We don't talk about that."
"That's interesting, what do you guys talk about?" Zatanna asks.
"What?" Roy asks.
"Girls? Boys? Dating? Positions?"
"Positions?"
"Sports? Video games? Sex? Paintball?"
"I'm still stuck in the whole positions thing."
"Right now, we're trying to figure out why women can't go in a public restroom without a partner." Kon tells her. "Our theory is that girls try to break out the window and run off." he adds.
"Nice." Zatanna says.
"And not true." Megan adds.
"Hey, pass the rolls." Roy says, Kon gives him a roll as he eats in a hurry.
"Are you gonna chew?" Kon asks him.
"Every time we eat in a group, Batman calls us out on a mission."
"Not every time." Kaldur says to him. "Has it been every time?" he asks.
"Team in the briefing room." Batman announces.
"You gotta be kidding me." Roy says as he swallows.
"We can always re-heat it." Megan says to them.
"It's not the same." Zatanna says as she gets up.
"I like missions." Kon says as he gets up.
"There is something wrong with you." Roy tells him.
"Hey we forgot to be thankful for our powers." Kon remembers.
"True."
"I am thankful I have my powers." Megan says.
"I am thankful I have my abilities." Kaldur says.
"I am thankful I am a magician." Zatanna says.
"I am thankful I am an amazing talent." Roy says.
"So what's the mission Batman?" Kon asks him with a smile.
…
Ok, so I got my Christmas chapter all ready to go, then a couple of missions, a little torture for Kon, some love and then the finale. I'll be done before New Year.
