“I’m Superman’s clone,” Superboy grunted.
“Uh, right. Miss Martian… Martian Manhunter?”
M’gann nodded, a big smile on her face. “He’s my uncle,” she confirmed cheerfully.
“And Robin…” he hesitated. Artemis wasn’t sure if that was because he really didn’t know who to pair him with, or because Robin was sending off death vibes in every direction. “Black Canary?”
Wally apparently found that hilarious and burst out laughing. Artemis had to hide her own snort of amusement with a cough.
“Actually, Robin is Batman’s partner,” Kaldur explained, a wry smile tugging at his lips. “He was the first of all of us.”
“Batman?” Dick repeated incredulously. “I don’t know much about him, but I hear he can make hardened criminals pee their pants with one look. I didn‘t think he would be the type to have a sidekick.”
“He doesn’t,” Robin said flatly. “We’re partners.” Robin let out a long breath and suddenly straightened, plastering a smile on his face. Artemis could tell it was fake. “The Dynamic Duo. You must have heard of us.”
Dick gave a non-committal grunt and ducked his head sheepishly. “Like I said, I don’t pay too much attention to the superhero business. Maybe that’s the difference between your reality and mine- sidekicks seem all the rage here and where I come from, the only one I or anyone else has heard of is Kid Flash.”
Kid Flash grinned at that and held his head a little higher. Artemis rolled her eyes. “That’s really a drag,” she snipped. “You got the worse of the bunch.”
“Hey!” Wally protested.
“Whatever Kid Klutz,” Artemis yawned. Wally pouted and crossed his arms over his chest, causing Artemis to smirk to herself. “I almost feel sorry for having to send you back if he’s all your dimension has got.”
“Oh you did not just-”
“Total burn,” Dick laughed. “But don’t worry, I’ll find some way to survive,” he added with a wink. The others laughed with him which only made Wally’s scowl deepen. Even Robin laughed, but to Artemis it sounded hollow. There was something definitely bugging the Boy Wonder but Artemis had no idea what it was. Was it Dick? How could he possibly put Robin in such a bad mood?
“Dude, not cool,” Wally muttered.

Okay, maybe I kind of, sort of ship Artemis and Dick, but not really. I think Artemis just knows how to appreciate a good looking kid when she sees one... And really, who can resist those baby blues?...
Dick and Babs FOREVER!!!

For a minute I thought Dick was going to say Batman died or something (due to there being no robin or some such) and I was going to get super depressed for Robin hearing the news from a non-caring Dick.
I secretly wish Wally knew a little more about his bro in your verse! Poor RObin! SO ALONE! (God I love it though!)
I secretly like Artemis and Dick together too.

Poor Robin, AU Dick's presence must really be painful for him. Seeing AU!Dick all happy, a performer and who still has his parents. Can't wait for more update
