Well, by near, really, she meant right next to his table eventually anyway, so it doesn't hurt to move over to his. She settles down into a chair and looks at him. She really doesn't have a lot of experience with those who wear the S shield and she's always uncertain about ... well... everything.
Gesturing to the backpack under the table. "I had homework-itis. So Lunch sounded like the answer."
*Big sip of the cola.*
"I figured I could get a jump on my geology report, but it's like my brain freezes up whenever I open the book. It's like evil scientists got together and did their best to make this stuff as boring as possible. I bet Doctor Sivanna is on the school board or something."
Despite the moaning, Kon's demeanor is pretty cheerful. Pizza heals many ills.
Kon can eat junk all day long and not suffer for it. At least he got that perk from the alien part of his genetic makeup. Even so, he can't compare to Bart. He's pretty sure that somewhere there's a physics and biochemistry think tank dedicated to trying to figure out how Kidflash can put it away like he does. It's impressive.
"Dang Bart!" Kon whistles with something verging on hero worship. "Light snack?" Grin.
"Hey I've been hearing that strange stuff has been going on in Gotham. Anyone hear from Tim?"
Kon's eyes flicker to the side. It looks like he's observing the passers-by on the sidewalk, but his friends know it to be an outward 'tell' that he's engaged in that dubious activity called 'thinking'.
Gotham isn't too long a trip and it is the weekend...
Bette looks toward Kon for a moment, pressing her lips together. Both of the others at the table could get to Gotham pretty quickly. "Do they need help?"
Really.
As such, she sits down near Kon with her food, trying to look normal. Not that she has any idea of what that really is.

"Hey Bette!" he calls cheerily, waving to his table.

"What'cha been up to?"

"Hey, Kon - I'm glad you recommended this place. This'll make a pretty good snack."
He pulls up a chair and sets his pizza down carefully on the table.

Bart looks thoughtful as he tears out his first slice and begins to eat.

Isn't that weird?
I mean, he's been off the map for months and only now it's occurring to me.."
That was weird. What the hell???

Bart wasn't really chatty himself, after Max got sucked into the Speed Force.
"On the other hand.."
There's an almost imperceptible flicker as Bart suddenly isn't there, then he's back.
".. Gotham City's on fire."

Yeah, Bette. Really smooth. Everyone is staring at you now.

"WHAT???" echoing Bette. Yeah there is staring.
Kon so doesn't care right now.
"We gotta go, now!"
Narrowly avoiding upending the table, Kon trips over himself getting up and out of the busy Pizza Parlor.
"C'mon!!"

Okay, maybe a little.
She plants a quick kiss on her boyfriend's cheek and looks at the others. "What am I missing?" Because, to be honest, she's missed a lot lately.

Well that came out like word salad.
Musta been the kiss.
Mmmm Cassie kissess....
Wait! Snap out of it!
Kon leans in and returns the kiss, then focuses.
"We think Robin might be in trouble..and Bart says Gotham's on fire."
Ok, if people were starring before....
