Where There's Blue, Gold Is Never Far Behind
A certain gold-clad figure is tapping at Dinah Kord's bedroom window. As soon as he got his Dad's gear done field-testing, and Mom had laid down the ground rules, he had only one place he wanted to be.

And here he was.

"Psssst.... Dinah!"

	"Yeah, Mister Gardner's taken the whole thing international. The NYC place is a bar and restaurant now. Haven't met up with her, but she e-mailed me to say she's joining the League." He tries some of the rocky road, finding it to his liking. "She also apparently threw a whole meta-brawl out into the streets, good guys and bad guys alike." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She giggled at that. "Oh, that must have been awesome!" Dinah thought for a moment, then got a mischievous grin on her face. "We should go visit some time. And then prank her." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Riley turns his chin up, but brings it down so he can keep eating ice cream. "I am totally secure in my sense of bravery and masculinity, so not only will I say I'm not chicken, but I'll also tell you that's not going to work." Hopefully she won't remember what will work.

	Are you kidding? She's practically got a photographic memory. She made woobie-eyes. "Pleeeease? It'll be fun. I promise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, he did, but that's not really the point..." Eventually, with the help of the ice cream, and the fact that it'll make Dinah happy, he shakes off his worries about the fallout, and grins at her. "So, what grade prank are we talking?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hmmm..." He rubs his chin thoughtfully. "NYC is the party town. We can probably rent one there. Are we going to need any advance staging?" Riley lives for moments like this. Plotting madcap schemes with his best friend, he loves this ~~and would still love it even if he didn't think she was perfect~~. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	His cheeks turn pink again, this time with no goggles to hide it. "Thanks D." He smirks. "You're rather fetching in your tights as well." He winks at her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, well," Dinah started, but cut herself off with a blush. She hid a wicked grin behind her hand though. "I wanted fishnets, like Aunt Dinah... but Mom said absolutely not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Riley's so jolted by that visual that he ends up biting into his ice cream, promptly swearing as legibly as a mouth snapped shut allows, rubbing one side of his face vigorously.

Yeah, he's not a fan of cold things in excess, besides Aunt Tora.

He turns a fierce glare in Dinah's direction. As much as he's capable of glaring at Dinah anyway; the expression is more of a 'You knew damn well what you were just doing' face.
