Getting back to normal.. whatever normal is.
After his time alone with Josh, Avalon has been feeling much more centered. It is a shame that Henry is so absent, but Avalon knows why and he doesn't hold it against his partner.. after all Henry put a lot on the table and now he was giving the three of Josh, Katima and Avalon enough time to process everything.

Life still had to go on though, and a couple days after the Talk, Avalon is up early doing his morning sun ritual stuff. Only this morning, it's extra wonderful for him. He appreciates Earth's sun all the more now, especially since he almost lost it.

After finishing his ritual, Avalon is in the kitchen, puttering around when Hal Jordan finds him. Mr. Jordan didn't have a lot to say, but he passed off to Avalon the paperwork that the JLA had gotten together for the three teens. They were going to be going to school on Monday.

The news is very daunting to Avalon, and he goes to find Josh, a nervous wreck. He makes his way back upstairs, and then slips into the room that he has taken to sharing with the other boy. "Hey.. Josh.." he says softly before he slides onto the bed and curls up next to Josh on top of the covers. Avalon is actually so worried that he's shivering!

Henry pokes his head into the room, summoned by the sounds of falling. "You guys okay?" he asks. "What's going on?"

At this point, Avalon can't contain his laughter. He falls back onto the bed into his wings, his expression wearing a wide smile.

"Oh, hello Henry.." he says in a warm tone, before he gestures to Josh and gives a giggle. "Josh can't seem to keep from falling off the bed." he giggles again, then starts to turn much more serious, his tone dropping to be a bit softer as he says "your dad gave me the paperwork for us to start school on Monday. It's kind of.. daunting.."

Josh blinks a few times and looks towards the door seconds before Henry enters. He blushes when Ava starts laughing and offers a small smile. "Hi, Henry," he greets.

When Ava mentions school again, Josh snatches a pillow and covers his head with it.

"Ohhhh," he says. He steps into the room and sits on the bed. "Guys, it'll be okay. We've faced down supervillains and zombies together. High school will be no problem for you."

Avalon just gives Henry a rather suffering expression, and curls his wings around himself in a self conscious motion.

"Henry? I barely know how to read." he then says softly. "Much less read English. It's just.. very intimidating. They have me enrolled in a grade far above what I am actually capable of." his nose crinkles, and Avalon takes on an odd half scared, half disgusted expression. "I will have lots of home work."

Still hiding his head with the pillow, Josh gives another little flail.

"I'd rather go fight more zombies. Zombies are easier to deal with than homework and highschool," he says, sounding a bit muffled.

"High school won't tear your heart from your chest," he replies. "And Blue... your ring can help you translate until you finish picking up the language." He reaches over, pulls the pillow away from Josh, and gently baps him with it before getting to his feet.

"You guys will be fine," he reassures them, getting to his feet and heading for the door. "And besides... I'm not allowed to maintain the ring if I don't maintain my grades. So if I can do it with that pressure... you guy's'll have no problems."

As he heads out the door, he adds, "Other than fighting for time for the shower in the morning..."

"That's because we all know that you take two hours in the morning to get ready!" shoots Avalon with another laugh at Henry's back.

After the door is closed, Avalon scoots over the side of the bed, peering down at Josh as he asks "Well. Do you think he's right? I've not had any schooling in like.." he gulps a bit, "Ten years? Something like that.."

"Yes it will...and mine'd just grow back anyway," Josh mumbles. He's been shot there before and survived so he's pretty confident about that. He lets out a little 'eep' when bapped and falls back onto the floor.

"We could always share shower time," he says in a very innocent manner. And it's true, right then it doesn't even occur to him what else could happen in the shower.

The healer blinks up at Ava and then his eyes go wide. "Ten years? Wow..." he trails off. "You'll do fine, Ava," he says with a smile.

Avalon shrugs, not upset, simply stating a fact as he says "That's just how things were done with people of my caste back then."

"I know I'll do fine, it just seems like cheating to always use my translator." says Ava then as he flips over, laying on his back once more. "And you know how poor my English is.." he then says, unable to keep the smirk form his lips.

Josh blushes again, staring at the ceiling from his spot on the floor. "Your English isn't that bad."

"That's because I practiced what I was going to say." replies Avalon with a smile in his tone. "I said it over and over and over all day till I was confident I had it right. I can understand more English than I can speak."

Josh sits up quickly, bright red all of a sudden. "Y-you practiced?" he almost squeaks. "R-r-really?"

Avalon nods his head, turning his face towards Josh as he asks softly "Yes, why is that so much of a surprise?" Avalon is flushing lightly though, his eyes shyly meeting Josh's through the fringe of his bangs and lashes.

Demurely, the Nalorian looks away, his tone soft as he says "You are worth more than you may realize, Josh. You are unique amongst the inhabitants of two planets that I feel fairly familiar. I'm willing to wager that you are unique among all the stars, I just have not visited enough of them to tell you for sure."

"I just never thought..." Josh trails off. He blushes furiously, the redness spreading from his face to his bare chest. He doesn't quite know what else to say, just leaning up for a quick kiss.

"Its okay.. not many have the ability to know their own world, much less two." Replies Ava as long fingers trail over Josh's cheek. The kiss is returned lazily, and Ava gives a soul deep sigh as Josh pulls away.

"I'm still worried about homework." He says. "I know you are worried over more, but from what I gather, Henry is popular. We should do well enough as part of his peer group."

Josh leans his cheek into Ava's hand and smiles a little.

"Homework is more annoying than difficult," he says. "The four of us can help one another," he offers.

"Yes. We will have to." Agrees Avalon.

He sighs, then murmurs "Do you think we should go find Katima and tell her? I imagine she will be just as worried as we are."

Josh blinks a few times and then nods. "Good idea," he says. "Umm. You go on ahead. I gotta get dressed first."

Avalon gives Josh a rather saucy little wink, his tone turning arched as he says "I don't know.. Maybe I want to watch."

He waits about three beats, until Josh is starting to flush and then grins and rolls over, leaning in to press a kiss to the other boy's lips. "Just joking. See you in a moment." he then whispers before he gets to his feet. With a ruffle to Josh's hair, Avalon makes his way for the door.

Josh goes red again and squirms a bit. "I...umm..." he's surprised by the kiss but returns it. "Okay," he says. The healer watches Ava go before getting up to look for clothes.
