What's on TV 04
Characters: YJ Team + JLA
Summary: When asked later about it, it would be all Green’s Arrow’s fault.
Superman had finally returned home. He had left Earth about two weeks ago, to help take care of an explosion on another planet. The task was fairly easy and didn’t require the full attention of the league which was why he was the only one to go. Of course he hadn’t even been back a full day before Bruce dragged him into Mount Justice and attempted to get the Kryptonains to talk to each other.
It was awkward. Let’s leave it at that.
So Superman had entered the living room find various members of the league huddle on the couch watching a show.
“He’s being such an idiot!” Dinah cried out. She threw the pillow she was holding against the wall.
“Tell me about it,” John remarked. “Does he not see it?”
“Chill ladies, I’m sure it’s just a rough spot they’re going through,” Barry suggested. He flashed away from the room and returned seconds later with more popcorn.
“It doesn’t matter,” Dinah snapped. “They should at least talk to each other!”
“What are you guys watching?” Superman asked. It was rare for so many members of the league to watching the same TV show. The last time show they all agreed upon was Doctor Who and that was more for pointing out its inaccuracies then actual entertainment. As of last night’s episode, Batman held the most points.
“Young Justice,” Ollie said, not even looking back at Superman.
“What?” Superman then saw himself and Superboy on the screen.
“Keep up Big Blue,” Barry said with a snap of his fingers. Barry didn’t turn his attention away from the screen. “Superman is being a jerk to Superboy, who’s his clone.”
“Just because Superboy is his clone, doesn’t mean Superman can treat him like that,” Dinah snapped. “He’s a boy, not a weapon, a thing, or an it.”
“Having a clone isn’t the easiest to deal with,” Ollie remarked. “I mean how would you feel if your DNA got stolen and suddenly a kid popped out of nowhere claiming to be your clone?”
Dinah whacked Ollie with a pillow. “You’re supposed to side with me on these things!”
“Ouch! Dinah! Stop it!”
“Quiet you two! I wanna see how this ends!” Hal shushed them. He glared at the two bickering superheroes.
Superman slowly backed out of the room. He really didn’t want to know.

Batman was passing by when he overheard a conversation between Dinah and Diana. The two women were gathered around the kitchen counter, coffee mugs in hands, discussing something.
“I’m telling you, Dinah, Superboy likes Megan.”
“But he gave Kaldur that flower!” Dinah countered. “Even if he didn’t know what it means, a boy doesn’t give just anyone a flower. Superboy at least understands that.”
“Nonsense, beside I’m fairly certain Kaldur likes Artemis,” Diana said. “They spend an often a lot of time together.”
“Because he’s been helping with her hand to hand combat,” Dinah replied. “Beside I thought Artemis liked Wally?”
“Wally?”
“Well they’re always fighting! But in that kinda ‘I like you and fighting against you to deny my feelings’ kind of way, you know? What is called? Slap Slap Kiss Kiss?”
Diana frowned. “Maybe. Or maybe they don’t like each other and I thought Wally liked Robin?”
Before Dinah could offer her opinion on that, the temperature in the room seemed to drop. “What did you just say about my son?”
Batman appeared behind them, glaring and frowning. His black cape fluttered around him. Dinah and Diana didn’t even bat an eyelash as they shared a look. Then Dinah pulled a chair up to the counter for Batman. “Have a seat Bruce,” she said.
Diana handed him a cup of hot cocoa. “We’ll break it down for you.”
-Twenty Minutes Later-
“So basically, you’re saying Robin, my son, has a crush on Wally and Wally has a crush on him.”
“Yup.”
“And I’m not allowed to kill him.”
“Nope.”
“And you’ve both come up with… portmanteau couple names for each pair.”
“Yup.”
“Why?”
“Because it’s fun. What do you think about Wack for Wally and Dick, oh wait we can’t use that because no one is suppose to do that Robin is Dick. Hmm Wain? Or Kin? The K from Kid and in from Robin.”
“Please don’t discuss couple names in front of me.”
