Aquaman's Outrageous Adventure (Open to Teen Titans, Cerdian, AJ)
They had to spend a few days in Poseidonis before coming back to Titans' Tower due to Cait's wounds, but eventually she was well enough to make the trip. The physicians wanted her to wait longer, but Arthur needed to get back here and Cait didn't want to leave him around Ty for any longer than necessary. To be honest, she was surprised San Francisco was still standing after Arthur had already been there for a few days.

Once they reached Metropolis they called the Tower and Cait asked Ty to come and get them. Cait was in bad enough shape with two healing stab wounds, she didn't want to add any additional misery by flying.

Cait smiled after they appeared in the Tower. Teleporting wasn't her favorite method of travel, but it was still better than flying. The important thing was that she was home. Nothing felt better than coming home.

"Hello?" she called out.

	Ty blinks. Cait gets to stay here, which is good. But its because... Atlantis is no place for kittens? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ruth takes this all in, then locks eyes with Ty, her expression as 'Talk in my head please' as she can make it. Pippi's affecting him. The way her associates did us, but....nicer. Must be some sort of accident. What do we do about it, especially if he's being unreasonable when he's sober? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vic just sat there quietly watching. He honestly couldn’t think of a Zen saying for the situation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Ty opens up a telepathic link to Ruth, and is stunned to find that that link almost instantly solidifies, and a lot of the confusion and rising worry drain away. For calming effect, its almost as good as his long-established link with Cait had gotten when Cait was calm.

Still, its a difficult situation. /I'm not sensing any malice from her, or any realization she's doing anything. It doesn't seem right... but neither does forcing Cait back to Atlantis right now while she's hurt. I don't know what to do... partly because every time I interact with Cait's father, things get worse./

	Don't let that get you nervous. He probably just projects a lot of family issues on you and thinks they wouldn't have them if Cait didn't have a boy in her life. Just... Stop me if I do anything remarkably unwise, okay? "Mrs. Curry?" She asks the lady in question. "May I show you something in the kitchen?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dc_parent 2010-10-04 12:24 am UTC (link)
	Mrs. Curry...? Oh, that was her! Mera was so intent on what was happening to Arthur that Ruth speaking to her didn't register for a moment. She gave the girl a curious look before nodding. "All right. Arthur, would you excuse me for a moment? Don't go anywhere until I return." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dinah, having regained her self control, now proceeded directly to panic. ...I just laughed at Aquaman. I'm going to be sleeping with the fishies by the end of the day. ...Great. And I haven't even let Riley get to second base yet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There has been so much noise! So Ash tip toes her way in and blinks. Her Father from this universe is apparently acting strange. She frowns and tilts her head watching the busy activity in the front area of the tower. "I...I-Is there s-something I should worry about?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Soon, Ruth gets Mera in the kitchen. "It's more a need to explain than show, Mrs. Curry," she admits quietly. "Pippi? The one even more enthusiastic than Iris? I think her equipment is accidentally having a... genially intoxicating effect on Mr. Curry. She doesn't mean to. But it's obviously a problem... except it seems we also have a problem when it isn't happening, because Cait really shouldn't be travelling again so soon..."

	Mera shook her head in amazement. "That girl is doing it to him? I'm relieved that Arthur isn't losing his mind, but it can't continue." "I know she shouldn't travel while she heals and I won't let it happen. Arthur, however, will be very angry when he realizes what's happening to him. I'll get him out and back to Atlantis." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	whydowescream 2010-10-04 02:20 am UTC (link)
	Ruth nods. "Completely accidentally. She really is like a five-year-old; there's no malice involved. I hope you can calm him down when he's out of her range, as long as Cait isn't there to actively take part in the argument, or Ty to possible exacerbate it. Thank you very much, ma'am. Should you use the teleportation or something, to get out of range all at once?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dc_parent 2010-10-04 02:42 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, that would be wise. Arthur will be angry, but he'll calm down and see reason without an audience to force his hand." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	whydowescream 2010-10-04 03:06 am UTC (link)
	"Great. Thanks so much, ma'am." And they'll head back into the living room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-10-04 03:08 am UTC (link)
	Cait was still speechless over her father's behavior. Right now Arthur was promising Pippi to take her for a pony ride sometime. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ok, I think your wife is ready to go. We'll take good care of King Triton for you!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I think you're right," Arthur said. "I do have a kingdom to run." He walked over and gave Cait a hug. "Take care of the kitten and yourself, Cait. I love you." Then he went over to Ty and put a hand on his shoulder. "Take care of my daughter for me. I'm counting on you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bwa_ha_ha 2010-10-04 03:34 am UTC (link)
	Well, at least she was safe until Aquaman got outside the radius of Pippi's mind-zappy-dealing-thing. "Have a good trip, Mr. Aquaman. Sir. Your highness." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Bye, Mr.Curry!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-10-04 03:40 am UTC (link)
	"Bye," Cait said to her father, still in shock. She really wished this was a big hallucination. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2010-10-04 03:41 am UTC (link)
	"Uhm... yes... yes sir. I will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dc_parent 2010-10-04 03:48 am UTC (link)
	Mera caught Arthur's arm to lead him away from the group. When the girl's mood altering power was no longer effecting, she didn't want him close to Cait and the others. "I'll be in contact, sweetheart," she told Cait. "Please let me know if you need anything. I think your father and I could use some time alone while you're recuperating." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-10-04 03:54 am UTC (link)
	Cait nodded. "I will. Thanks, Mom." Cait watched her parents leave and suddenly felt drained of all energy. Her stomach and shoulder hurt and all she wanted to do was crawl into her bed and pull the covers up over her head. Now that Arthur was gone, she slouched a little and leaned on a chair for support. "Well. That was...surreal." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	whydowescream 2010-10-04 04:02 am UTC (link)
	"Pippi," Ruth says calmly. "May I see your jewelry, please?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2010-10-04 04:04 am UTC (link)
	Ty puts an arm around Cait. Everything else he wanted to talk to her about can wait. "Come on, love. Let's get you to bed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bobblehead 2010-10-04 04:05 am UTC (link)
	Pippi nods, bouncing over to Ruth and handing over her hairpiece, studded with indigo gems. "Sure!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
