Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur is taking a shift in the Watchtower, and true to form... is in the rec area, microwaving Hot Pockets. After all, if something happens, there's alarms and such, right? Computer probably pays closer attention to what's going on that he would anyway. The microwave dings and he pulls out a paper plate with tasty treats on it and turns towards the tables.

"Oh, hey, Greenie, how's it going? What brings you to this lovely barren, airless wasteland? I know it's not your turn, cause it's my turn, which is why I'm so far from the ocean."

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
J'onn just happened to be at the base, and was headed into the rec room. He wasn't wearing any sort of facade, it was all him and green. Of course Arthur was on duty, and of course it was the rec room, where else would Arthur be?

"Evening Arthur," he offers with a nod. He has been around to make some tea, but he just got called Greenie and has to debate that for a little while. "I decided I should probably check in. Have been working with the Happy Harbor students for a while, would not want anyone to think I have forgotten my other job."

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur holds up his plate, "Ya want a Hot Pocket? Ham and Cheddar, best kind. And no worries, other than Bizarro showing up in Metropolis a month ago or so, things have been way quiet. That's why I'm down here, there's nothing going on so the computer can handle it. After all, we did all that work to get a decent AI running the place." He switches topics with barely a pause, "So how are the kids? Everything going ok there?"

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
J'onn finally decides that from Arthur, Greenie is acceptable and goes about putting on some hot water. "There have been a few ups and down at the school, but over all it seems to be going quite well. Their prom is coming up and I have agreed to chaperon the event, not that I intend to stop the children from being children of course. The only way to truly learn is through trial and error."

He gets a mug and a tea pod, which gets the loose leaf poked into it, then finally a tea pot for the pod to go into. "I had heard something about Bizzaro and a lot of pink, but figured if I was needed I would be contacted."

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur rolls his eyes, "Yeah, Titan named Vorpal decided to glitterbomb the street. Which worked out, cause that mixelplick (yes, that's how he pronounces it) guy was there being invisible and making things worse. Anyhoo, after we got rid of him, we actually beat the stupid out of Bizarro for a little bit and he took off when he realized he was doing more harm than good. So all's well that ends well, like they say. Good to hear about the kids, prom's pretty cool as I remember."

He snags a beer out of the fridge and pops the top off, taking a swig as he sits down to eat. "Grab a chair when your tea is done, whatcha been up to besides school stuff?"

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
Once the water boils, J'onn pours it over the tea to let it start steeping. "Reading mostly, and living with Hank Pym. /That/ has been an adventure all on its own." He seems to get thoughtful for a moment, but offers nothing else regarding Hank for the time being. "I am glad to hear that Bizzaro learned his lesson. So many things out there doing harm. I still have no idea what happened to me on April the first, but I also would prefer never to have it happen again."

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur looks over at him, "What happened on April.. did you get caught up in that singing thing? I saw something about that on the news. Oh, please tell me you did a musical number on the streets of New York? That'd just make my day. What did you sing?" The Hot Pockets are forgotten as he grins over at J'onn, waiting to hear that the usually composed hero actually did something off the wall.

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
J'onn stares at Arthur for a moment... he knew. That takes a moment of thinking before he replies simply, "Yes." Then goes back to making his tea. "Not Easy Being Green." He does not elbaorate further.

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur blinks, then possibly the biggest smile ever seen on his face bursts into being. "Oh my god, that's AMAZING! It so fits you, too, you're a lot like Kermit in some ways." He takes another swig of his beer. "I would pay a lot of money for someone to have recorded that, it needs to be on social media."

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
J'onn turns very slowly to look at Arthur and offers a simple, "No." He then collects the tea pot and mug and walks over to the table to sit down. "I am very happy to say that everyone in the area was thusly effected so there were no phone cameras working."

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur Curry awws, "That's a pity, it'd be a sight worth seeing. Not like people haven't seen me sing, you know. Just with you it's really unexpected." He suddenly remembers his Hot Pockets and grabs one, taking a big bite and chewing it up. "You any good? You could jam with my band sometime if you are."

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
For the moment J'onn pretends he did not just hear that, and goes about pouring his tea, adding a little honey and cream, you know, stalling.

"I have no idea regarding my singing talents," he finally offers when it is long enough, but not too long as to be rude. "I have not sung before that day, nor since."

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur shrugs taking another bite of his Hot Pocket, "Hell, that's easy. Computer, give me an instrumental of 'It's not easy being green'." The intro to the song comes on, and he looks across the table to J'onn, "Ok, go. We'll see how you do and take it from there."

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
J'onn openly stares at Arthur as if snakes just sprouted from the Atlantian's forehead, then slithered off and ate some children. "I do not know the words. That is part of the surprise of what happened, the things that were song came to me from other people's minds. I am certain someone was thinking it when they say me, and I started singing."

Arthur Curry has posed:
Arthur Curry ahs, "The whole telepathic thing, huh? Well, that's too bad, would have been fun. Computer, end playback." The music stops, "Well, I better get back up to the monitor room, Diana doesn't like it when I leave it untended for too long." Strangely, the Amazon seems to be one of the few people Arthur actually respects. "Keep the kids safe, ok? Oh, and watch out for any of them sneaking alcohol at the prom, that's always a problem. I mean, I know I did it, so you'll probably have at least one of them try." He gets up, collecting Hot Pockets and beer, and heads for the elevator.

J'onn J'onzz has posed:
J'onn hmms softly at the warning of alcohol, deciding he'd better to a little more research on proms. "Thank you for the advice, Arthur. I will keep it in mind. If anything comes up, feel free to contact me."
