The team is perfectly capable of supervising themselves. There wouldn't be a team otherwise.

[But what about non-mission things? You know, when they're not the team and just... teenagers.]

...

They're still capable of supervising themselves. But the question you're really asking is, will they?

...soap opera.

[wallcrawler]

Well, minus the part with the evil twins and the inevitable coma storyline in time for sweeps, but you get the idea.

[decentdad]

I get the idea. I'd like some specifics.

[Well... no, he really wouldn't, but it's... kind of his duty.]

[wallcrawler]

Well, lots of dating drama, don't think there's been a whole lot of training, Aqualad and Superboy keep getting temporally displaced, that sort of thing.

I'm even seeing if they've got open membership, just to even things out.

[decentdad]

That's ambitious of you.

[oh god he's not going to ask much more about dating drama. how do i emotions.]

Are they at least all speaking to each other civilly?

[wallcrawler]

Hey, I had to handle New York on my own back home, there is no way I'm taking on that kind of stress by myself again. This is kinda the first time I've been around other superheroes.

[Well, first you have to let your little bat-heart grow three sizes, and then...]

Far as I know, yeah. The mun says there was an exception a while back, but it had a lot more to do with the usual ship shenanigans than anything else. Last I checked they were all still on good terms.

[decentdad]

Being successful doesn't make the endeavor any less ambitious.

[Hey, he's a good size and a half beyond most Batmans, tyvm.]

Good. I'm not concerned as long as it doesn't interfere with what's important.

[wallcrawler]

Yeah, well, it seems like the smart thing to do. The ship's got five million people on it, and I can't be everywhere at once. They can't either, so teaming up just seems like a good idea.

[Yeah but that's like saying somebody's pretty fast in comparison to a turtle, Bats.]

And I'm pretty sure they don't need to be told that. There's a handfull of bad guys on board, plus a faction that hates us refugees on principle, and then your run-of-the-mill low-lifes. I don't know what their patrols are like, but I know I'm usually kept busy.

[decentdad]

It's definitely the most efficient way to do things.

[Gah. You know how that sounds? That sounds like that thing you have, Spidey. That thing about the responsibility.]

What kind of experience did you have before?

[wallcrawler]

Lots of bruised ribs and a ruined social life. It's bad enough trying to police a city of six million AND about a dozen supervillains, it's even worse when they start teaming up.

Heck, even if I don't wind up teaming up with these guys, I at least plan on sharing notes. I don't want anybody flying blind into some of my sociopathic playmates. Rhino or Venom alone could probably take 'em all out if they don't know how to hit 'em. Heck, I already do and it's still risky.

[decentdad]

I'm impressed by your understanding of the situation. Intentions are a large percentage of the work.

I'd like to see your abilities in action before I commit to anything, but you do grasp the situation intellectually.

[wallcrawler]

Well, that would require you showing up.

[TAKE THAT, BATS.]
