Hm...

Well, do you know anyone else who wasn't born with it, maybe?

My cousin, Power Girl. She came to Earth from Krypton and had to learn how to handle it.

Really? Do you think she might be interested in helping?

Not sure. I could always ask her for pointers to help him. And do what Black Canary did for me.

I know I should have asked before hand... I just imagined you as the best guy for the job. I think you'd be a great teacher.

There are probably better teachers than me but I'll give it a try.

Thanks though...for believing in me.

I'm really glad you're here.

[ Can you feel the blush through her mind? Because it's embarrassing, let me tell you. ]

It's a little weird being here, being stuck I mean... But I'm glad it's with you and the others. But, especially you.

[ /drowns in sap ]

[And all kinds of adorable, jsyk.]

Yeah, it is. I don't really want you to be stuck here but at the same time I like having you here.

[It's confusing to have these mixed emotions.]

I mean it would be better being back home, taking care of our own world, but ... It's not so bad being here. Just means there's somewhere else we've got to watch out for.

I know what you mean.

And my cousin is pretty nice.

I want to meet her!

I'll see when she's available. Um, fair warning though. She might know you from her version of Earth.

Ohh, like an alternate universe me?

Yeah, alternate version you. She has her own version of Superboy and Zatanna too as far as I know. No idea about the rest of the team.

[He doesn't say anything about the alternate Superman but it's on his mind.]

Weird... I wonder what we're like?

Do you think everyone we know is over there? Even my Uncle J'onn?

No idea. I didn't really ask.

Maybe. Superman is.

Might be a bit nosy, I guess.

I guess if there's an alternate you and me, there was bound to be one of Superman, too.

We were too busy talking about other things for me to ask.

Yeah. He's...nicer than ours.

[Not bitter at all. :|]

You say that like our Superman isn't that nice...

[ I mean it's not like she can't be stubborn about his bitterness. ]

Power Girl said he wouldn't avoid me like ours is.

[ The wave of sympathy that comes naturally when this sort of conversation comes up is ... about as poignant as ever. ]

Conner... I don't think he's avoiding you because he doesn't like you. I think he's ... He's scared. Suddenly having family you didn't know about is a bit daunting, sometimes.

I know.

Trust me, I know. But I didn't avoid the sudden family I got when I came here or back home. No matter how weird it was.

You're also a little more ... well, younger. I think you're more open to the idea. It's different suddenly having parental type figures or cousins- having something that's kind of like a child is a little scary.

Imagine if I suddenly had a son! O-Or a daughter! Just out of nowhere. It would be so weird.

I personally think having a half-brother or other DNA donor is fairly scary too. Superman isn't my father, he's just who I was cloned from.

You have a brother.

Well, yeah but I--
