Prompt Post - Part Ten
I am REALLY, REALLY SORRY about taking so long, guys, and about not being around much recently. I've been busier than I have in a while, and it just kept slipping my mind between uni applications and volunteering and all sorts- for some reason I thought we were much further off a new post.
If there is anything I haven't responded to, as of now, I'm ( Read more... )
Megan hummed as she placed her latest batch of cookies into the oven. Grinning, she took off her mitts and placed them in their proper place on the counter. She headed up the stairs, maybe Superboy would be free... As she headed up the stairs, she heard, " RECOGNIZED: MARTIAN MANHUNTER, 045" She quickly flew back down. Throwing herself at her green uncle, she squealed. " Uncle J'onn! What brings you here?" She looked up to find something she had never seen in her uncle's face before: discomfort. She hopped back, nervously twirling a piece of hair between her fingers.
" Uncle J'onn? Is something the matter?"
" Well, the Leaguers have unanimously decided that it is time to give you children something that the people of Earth call, 'The Talk'."
" The Talk?" M'gann asked. " Is it some sort of learning ritual?"
The Manhunter paused, and then replied. " Of a sorts. See, it is the discussion of sexual reproduction in the species of humans."
M'gann blanched. She already knew about this. She and Superboy had partaken in the act a couple of months ago. And to be truthful, many times since. She turned around and stared longingly at the stairs, wishing she had not gone down them to greet her uncle. She made a mental, 'Helloooo Megan!' as she said,
" Uhmmm. Uncle, I have made plans with Superboy to...study! Yes yes. To study. We have a quiz. Tomorrow. In...history. Of, uh. England. Yeah, history of England. Sooo if you don't mind."
She stood up and began to leave, only to be stopped short by her uncle.
" On the contrary, M'gann, having him here would, as the phrase goes, ' kill two birds with one stone.' Why don't you call him down too?"
M'gann groaned as Superboy took a seat next to her a few minutes later, looking confused. She mentally sent him a message. " My uncle is giving us... "The Talk" , or an explanation of human...reproduction." She blushed as she thought to him. " He does not know we..."
" Don't worry, M'gann. I'll handle this." The boy replied.
M'gann looked at him, confused, as he stopped her uncle in the middle of his speech about the various STDs one could get from sex.
" Mr. Manhunter," he began, " M'gann and I have had sex already. So you don't have to explain it. We knock enough about it."
A heavy silence fell over the room. M'gann and her uncle sat in shock as they both stared at Superboy. One in embarrassment, and one in shock. From behind the trio a long and drawn out beeping noise emitted from the oven. At the same time, the Manhunter got a signal from the JLA, stating that he was needed elsewhere. In a high pitched voice, M'gann squeaked out, " Hey, look! Cookies are done. Heh. Hellooooo Megan, I should have remembered. Ah, Uncle J'onn looks like you have a League call. WHOOPS looks like it's time for you to go." Eager to get him out, she pushed her still dumbfounded uncle out of the cave. Then pulled her cookies out of the oven and set them on a cooling rack. Dropping onto the couch, she covered her face with both her hands.
" I can't believe you DID that." She moaned. " I'll never look him in the eye again."
" I'm sorry..." Superboy said. " I didn't know sex was something you were supposed to be secretive about. Is it?"
M'gann turned towards him.
" Yes. Yes it is. Even on Mars, it is. On Earth, doubly so!"
" Whoops..." Superboy looked away.
M'gann sat up, and looked at her boyfriend with wide eyes. " Why? Who else did you tell?!"
Superboy fidgeted. Twiddling his thumbs as he said, " No one..."
"WHO did you tell?!" M'gann asked again, eyes wide.
" Just...everyone on the team." Superboy mumbled.

And that's all folks! Part one and two are over. Sorry if it's bad ( Which it probably is...) But Part Three will be up tomorrow, hopefully. If people are liking it.
Part two will be Green Arrow/Artemis/Red Arrow. Green Arrow tells them both at the same time... and then Aqualad/Aquaman. Kaldur feels awkward as his King gets off topic and instead heads towards how his child was created.
