for clark

[This is how Hal Jordan welcomes a friend back. Not by saying hello on his network post or dropping by in a timely manner or any other sane move, but instead waiting until Clark's first ad came out. Then he had the ad framed and it's that he's holding as he knocks on the door to Clark's new place. He didn't even need to ask for an address, his ring was way too invasive for that.

There's a huge shit-eating grin on his face when the door opens and he holds out his house warming gift.]

Welcome back to my favourite model.

[andaway]

[The sad thing is: Clark isn't surprised. He wasn't exactly expecting it, per see, but it's such a Hal thing to do that at as soon as he sees the framed picture he can't believe he didn't see it coming once he'd been reassured Hal was still here.

He tries not to smile, he really tries, but it's kind of a losing battle.]

If you think I'm going to pitch in to pay that frame you're mistaken.

for dick

[aviate]

[When Jaime had told him the plan for not losing control again, Hal had insisted he be there. He'd have preferred if this was happening far away from civilisation, but there was something to be said about doing it at Jaime's place. Namely the fully stocked kitchen which Hal was taking advantage of as Jaime puttered around getting set up.

Yeah, he's going to eat dry cereal and just sit there while a teenager risked his mind and life.

But hey, Hal is keeping his ring in his pocket instead of wearing it in case his presence sets off another incident. He's keeping it on him in case it goes horribly wrong, but at least then it won't be his fault.]

[ Dick really doesn't know Hal that well. Certainly not the way Wally does — but then, that would probably require Bruce and Hal getting along the way Barry and Hal did, and the thought of that makes his head spin. So, no.

He knows what happened with Hal and Jaime in broad strokes, but not the bigger picture of their year-long feud. Maybe he'd see things differently if he knew. But maybe not. Hal is... well... he's a Green Lantern. His heart has to be in the right place with this, even if Dick thinks his methods, his willingness to take Jaime out if he has to, run far too extreme. Not that Dick has a better idea, necessarily, and he's hesitant to put his foot in his mouth by arguing when he doesn't have an alternative in place.

Well, an alternative besides what he's about to do.

So he heads softly into the kitchen, knocking on the wall to politely announce his presence. ]

... I hope there'll be some Lucky Charms left when I get back.

[ You can only eat all the cereal if he dies, Hal. ]

[aviate]

[Hal startles because damn bats and their sneaking abilities. The box jerks, but otherwise he maintains a grip on it and avoids spilling anything. He and Bruce might rub each other the wrong way, but Hal doesn't apply that to all the kids. It's not their fault their mentor is a jerk with a stick permanently stuck up his ass. So while he might have yelled at Bruce to never do that again, Dick gets a nod once he recovers.]

I think he's got another box.

[He stands up to go through the pantry and while he doesn't find another, he does find a bag of potato chips which he opens to eat as well. There's a hole in his wall, Jaime can put up with him eating his food in return for not asking to help fix it.

He shakes the bag at Dick to offer him some. Let's ignore none of this is his to share in the first place. At this rate his contribution is going to be the crumbs on the counter.]

[performance]

[ Dick stares for a moment, then shrugs in a "what can you do?" fashion and grabs the cereal box to tip some into his hand. ]

Stress eating? Or just regular?

[ He tosses a few pieces into his mouth. Nom nom. ]

[aviate]

[Hal stares at him in confusion, the picture perfect look of a man who is never stressed.]

What do I have to be stressed about? I'm just hungry.

[He has zero regrets using his food money to make fun of Clark.]

[performance]

Um... the whole... Scarab thing.

[ Really? Is it just him? ]

Not that anything's going to go wrong! Everything's under control. I just thought you might have some concerns.

[aviate]

[Spoilers: it's everyone but Hal.]

Bruce trusts you. I mean he's not here, but if he was he would. You're a lot tinier than I remember, but you weren't any less capable back then.

[And if it did fail, Hal already knew the outcome if he and the AI had to come to blows again. He's also going to ruin the moment by shovelling more food into his mouth.]
