"Hey everybody, look who's here! One of those Justice Leaguers we've heard so much about!"
It's so rare these days, to get all her uncles in the same place, that Dinah's delighted by everything they have to say, even if most of what they have to say is to tease her about her new team name, press her for information about her new teammates and to pile on their hopes and dreams on to her. Her mother's right, if snide and tactless, when she says that she loves it.
It's Wesley's birthday, and everyone's at the Lances' house; Charlie, Alan, Al, Kent, both Teds.
Although. That puts a weird spin on the whole party.
Dinah's uncle Ted Knight - the old Starman - is one of her uncles she's seen the least of recently. Even less in the last few years since her Dad's death. He just... hasn't been around. And while he seems to be having a great time catching up with the guys, but with Dinah walks in on him and her mother in the kitchen...
There's an awkward moment, and he leaves the house.
"Weird," Dinah tells her mother directly. "What was that about?"
Dinah sr. hesitates, and finally tells Dinah all about her history with Ted.
Her daughter's indignant scream nearly breaks their glassware.
