I don't even know

[lapswally]

Mundane, I appreciate the recognition but I think I might be getting too old for this. I mean, I have a kid on the way. Actually, I'm having twins. Well, my wife is but I helped. [Awkward pause.]

Anyway, the point is that she probably would prefer me to be back home instead of doing whatever this is. Not even a speedster can handle a pregnant wife, League duties, and all this.

[Now that he's got that out of the way.]

...And don't you think you could have chosen a different username? He's already going through a lot right now and doesn't need this as a constant reminder, especially since my...grandson showed up. [Still getting use to that.] Besides, the Kid has done quite alright for himself.

I've seen a lot of unfortunate usernames in my time here. I'm sure Wally understands it's not your fault.

It was a little hectic before so I never got to congratulate you on your future fatherhood. So, congratulations.

[lapswally]

He should just be thankful that I convinced my mundane to leave out a word or two.

Thanks, Nightwing. Not everyday somebody learns that they're going to be a father from their grandson from the future.

[leftthenest]

Yeah, I think this is probably a first. Ever. I bet he even saved you the trouble of coming up with names.

[worst_mentor]

[Would comment on how the usernames could be much worse because seriously. But, no. There's something else he wants to comment on. Have a grin, Barry.]

Twins, huh? Congrats.

[lapswally]

He does have a habit of saying stuff he calls spoilers about the future.

[leftthenest]

Yeah that's going to be a problem. [He sighs.]

[lapswally]

[Hey, you did alright with Artemis, Ollie. Won't mention either Roy. And he'll return your grin with one of his own.]

Thanks, Ollie. You ever going to join the club?

[lapswally]

Yeah, that's something we're going to have to deal with.

So...how are things between you and Wally? [What? He's concerned about his nephew and Wally won't talk.]

[sciencewhizard]

It's cool. [ Stiff shrug. ] Like I said, I'm used to it.

[ But there's a small grin there. ]

"Alright?" You think so?

[leftthenest]

You mean is he still talking to me? Yeah. Barely. [Gotta keep up the front.]

[lapswally]

[Barry's gonna ignore the first part because there's nothing he can really say to make things better. So he'll just grin and give Wally a friendly pat on the back.]

Of course I do, Wally. You've done a lot of great things and I don't just mean as Kid Flash.

[covered]

Congratulations on the twins.

As for the username - I'm pretty sure Wally'll be distracted enough not to even notice.

[lapswally]

Just...give him some time. He's going to need his best friend at some point.

I'll look out for him as best I can. [You kids and your silly plans.]

[sciencewhizard]

[ He's not gonna back away from praise from his Uncle Barry. He still idolizes the guy, meaning a wider grin is in order. ]

Well, duh. Do you expect any less from the Wall-man? [ Pardon while he descends into an old habit for humor's sake. ]

[lapswally]

Thanks, Artemis.

[Have a teasing grin.] And will you be the one distracting him for me?

[lapswally]

[He's still grinning because he is proud of his nephew but that doesn't mean he can't still tease him.]

You're twenty-one now, Wally. Don't you think it's time to hang up the Wall-man nickname?

[worst_mentor]

[Thank you, Barry. Now if only mun would look at that instead of what my multiverse counterparts did. And yes let's never talk about them. Never.]

Me? I dunno. I'll have to get back to you on that.

[covered]

[ wow where did this sudden heat come from, randomly making her face flush like this!

she recovers after a moment, though, laughing it off. ]

He wishes.

[lapswally]

[Muns need to understand how hard it is with these kids. I'm lucky mine didn't kill himself after running into something or tripping over a rock.]

You should probably figure that out sooner rather than later. I mean, you're not exactly a young Arrow anymore.

[lapswally]

[Ah, you kids make it too easy.]

I bet he does.

[covered]

[ can she even talk about this with wally's uncle? ]

He - hasn't been talking about me... has he?

[sciencewhizard]

Never.

[ Yes. Definitely, yes. It's going to be hung up. ... Most days. ]

Speaking of hanging things up, though. Ready to hang up all claims to sleep when the kids are around?

[worst_mentor]

[Yeah. That would have been pretty unfortunate. Also, wow are you saying he's old? Now he's frowning.]

Hey, 37 is still young. I have plenty of time to think about kids.

[lapswally]

[Of course. He's the fun Uncle.]

Well, you know Wally. He's a talker.

[covered]

[ okay color her officially embarrassed now. ew. how do you deal with in-laws...?




...not that he's her in-law yet or anything!

or at all!! ]

I bet only half of them at true. If at all.
