Yeah, Keith was unhappy about the situation with Jerry Carr. Not only did the papparazzi have photos of the young Queen chasing some dude in his underwear, but they also got the snapshots of him slipping on the banana. They didn't say anything about green flashes and teleporting. Instead, the headlines were all about Keith being an idiot. And on top of that, he'd just gotten back from being kidnapped by Henry's villains.

He picked up his phone and dialed Henry's number. Jerry was at Henry's party that time. He should know about Jerry.

	"Wassup, Queen?" Henry says, answering the phone. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Yo, Jordan. Lots o' stuff. But right now, I gotta know what you know about that Jerry Carr kid that was at your party." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"His dad's Snapper," he shrugs. "Lives out in Happy Harbor... not much, but it was meant for a hero-set thing, and his dad was a part of that, so..." He trails off. "Anyway, why d'you want to know?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I saw him in Gotham two days ago, and then here in Star City yesterday. He ran away from from me, and I swear he can teleport things. Like- he teleported my pants off, and bouncy balls under my feet, and then a banana. Dude pulled some Looney Toons out on me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Wait. He teleported your pants off?" Henry starts to laugh. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Dude! That's not funny! Why did he run away? Is he a criminal or something?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-04-06 11:32 pm UTC (link)
	Henry struggles to keep from laughing. "No... but maybe... he was just scared of the guy without pants chasing after him!" The struggle to keep from laughing is lost. Henry cackles loudly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He just laughs more. "...Did... you want him to buy you dinner first?" His laughter doubles further in intensity. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The following afternoon, after school, Henry appears at Keith's window, knocking. "Ready to go?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-04-07 12:21 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah dude!" Keith had everything packed, including a collapsed bow and a selection of arrows. They fit nice and easy into a single-strapped backpack. He moved over to the window and started climbing out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A stack of pants floats out from behind Henry. "I brought spares," he tells Keith, trying hard for a deadpan delivery, even as the edges of his mouth twitch. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-04-07 12:26 am UTC (link)
	"...I..." He couldn't say anything to that. "I'd scream at you so hard right now if I was a woman." Coming from Keith, that could have been dangerous. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-04-07 12:29 am UTC (link)
	"Sorry, man. You're off the menu. No making you scream." He sends the stack of pants flying back home, to be delivered back to his room, and they fly towards Rhode Island. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He couldn't help but chuckle at that one. "I knew there was a reason you're my best bro." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Because I won't sleep with you? What does that tell me about your arch-enemies? Never mind... I don't want to know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mmmm. You sure?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry takes a seat, and pulls out a chair for Keith. "Good to see you! Did you have a good time at the party?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-04-07 03:02 am UTC (link)
	Keith takes his own seat, too. And instead of saying anything, he gives Jerry a look that might send shivers down a person's spine. Not A Happy Camper. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jerry avoided making eye-contact with Keith. “Yeah I did thanks for asking but if I had to guess that’s not at all the reason you’re here,” Jerry said he wasn’t going to dance around with small talk and get straight to the point of why they were here. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-04-07 03:53 am UTC (link)
	Henry shrugs. "That's mostly why I'm here. That, and doing Keith a favor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“In the middle of a big chase with the object low to the ground,” Jerry said, “Yeah kind of.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry raises an eyebrow. "Keith's got good eyes. He's got to." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
