The Robin and The Falcon

by tracylay

Robins symbolize growth. Falcons are protectors. Robin and Black Falcon are Gotham City's protectors and watch over the many lives alongside Batman. But how are they in their civilian lives? Short little scenes that fill in some missing dates in "Black Falcon". Might include some Robin/Black Falcon moments. Dick Grayson x Verena Blake (OC)

66. Special

A/N: Requested by ReadWriteLove715 for some M'gann/Artemis/Verena time. Sorry it's so short! :|

"How was cheer practice?" Artemis inquired, looking at our Martian friend, who had reverted back to her normal green skin tone the second she entered the Cave.

"It was fun!" M'gann chirped, clapping her hands together excitedly. "Wendy and Karen were showing me this awesome new routine they came up with!"

"Seems nice," Artemis commented genuinely. "Ugh. School begins for me in two days and I don't want to go to a school full of snobs." She frowned, obviously displeased.

"What school are you going to?" M'gann asked, looking at the older blonde in the room..

"Gotham Academy," Artemis replied.

M'gann then turned to me before asking, "What school do you go to, Falcon?"

I gave a sheepish smile to M'gann, and I knew Artemis was watching me as well. "Can't say. Secret ID and all that." I shrugged, not really knowing what else to say.

"Hello, Megan!" M'gann exclaimed, hitting her forehead lightly. "Right. Batman's orders." She grinned. "But uh… are you and Robin in the same grade?"

I nodded. "Yeah. We both start our sophomore years," I replied. "Batman has us on an accelerated program."

"Somehow, I'm not surprised," Artemis commented. "What about Wally and Red Arrow?"

"Wally started his sophomore year almost a month ago. Roy graduated back in June," I explained easily. I looked at the two of them and said, "I can't give you much information about Robin and me, but I can definitely tell you a lot about the two redheads."

"Has Red always been such a jerk?" Artemis didn't hesitate to ask.

I frowned. "Roy's not a jerk." My two companions looked at me skeptically. "He's not a jerk to me," I explained. "He's really nice."

Artemis snorted while M'gann continued to look wary.

"It's true," I defended him.

"Maybe it's because you have a really good reign over all the guys," Artemis mused, smirking. "It's impossible to get Wally and Robin to listen to you, but you do it so easily."

I shrugged. "I've known them for years. Give it time."

"Maybe you're just a special girl," M'gann piped.

I gave a small smile towards her. "Thanks. You two are pretty special yourselves."
