dick, i know what we're gonna do today [2/4]

[sazaasa]

What was strange about following Agent P was that he wasn’t very discreet. While they would usually sneak around on their way to their destination, Agent P managed to hijack a van, shuffle them all inside, drive it, and park it outside Doofenshmirtz Evil, Incoporated.

And nobody in the town seemed to notice or care, and Wally, who’d nabbed shotgun, grinned. He was liking this guy-platypus-thing. While they travelled, M’gann set up a mental link and the team reasoned between themselves about the practicality of their situation. While Wally had become mostly defensive, and Robin continued to go by the idea that if Batman was behind him, there was no reason for any doubt, by this point, Superboy had become Agent P’s primary opponent.

He’s just a platypus, Superboy reasoned. They don’t normally do much, you know.

And when, Artemis cut in, has normalcy ever meant anything to us? Her contribution shut Superboy up until they reached the parking spot, and he was set off again by the complete and utter unprofessionalism and the sheer strangeness of it all, and M’gann frowned and brought up the fact that Superboy had Wolf and Sphere and wasn’t really in the position to doubt secret, Batman-trusted agents, however non-humanoid they may be.

Kaldur was the one to take Zatanna’s old advice and refrain from being rude. “Agent P,” he spoke, as the platypus turned around to face the others and communicate his plan to thwart the enemy, “I do not wish to doubt you, but are you certain that parking this vehicle so visibly is a good idea?”

Agent P simply shrugged, which was enough for Kaldur, who seemed to have a soft spot for the guy.

“Awesome,” said Wally. “Do we have a plan?”

Agent P miraculously managed to convey his message to the team in a series of clicks and platypus sounds.

The team nodded, and they slipped out of the van in full gear and everything, and there was just something weird about this place because no one seemed to notice them. They approached the front door of Doofenshmirtz Evil, Incorporated, and Robin grappled up to the balcony with Aqualad, and Kid Flash ran up to the balcony, and Miss Martian flew up to the balcony, and Superboy jumped up to the balcony, and Artemis stayed with Agent P. Who rang the doorbell and walked into the building like it was his apartment complex.

She shrugged and followed him inside, and they rode the elevator up to the floor with the balcony. There was a pleasant tune playing in the elevator that she thought she vaguely recognized.

With a ding, the elevator door opened, and Artemis and Agent P stepped out and Agent P showed her the way to a door. And he knocked.

And the door opened.

“Perry the Platypus!” a man that Artemis identified as Doofenshmirtz, their target, proclaimed. “Please, do come in! Oh, I see you’ve brought a friend! That’s very kind of you, because I just got these new sofas”-Doofenshmirtz pointed to the offending furniture-“and I was hoping that I could get some of my friends to test them out with me, but I, you know, don’t really… Well, you know, I don’t have friends.”

Perry nodded and led a very puzzled Artemis over to the new sofas. And… he sat down on one. Doofenshmirtz looked at her excitedly, like a nice grandmother who’d just knitted the ugliest Christmas sweater’s daughter, and thought it was the prettiest thing in the world. Was this seriously the villain that they were supposed to face? Because his sofas didn’t seem particularly threatening.

So she sat.
