Chapter 887 On Girlfriend Selection
Compared to the youthful and radiant Courtney, Troy, who trailed behind silently holding the beach volleyball, presented a different style altogether.
Among all the women present, Troy's body lines were the most pronounced, which complemented her Amazonian Warrior identity. However, Troy's figure wasn't the bodybuilder physique of someone competing in bodybuilding competitions.
Troy's figure struck a good balance between muscular and ordinary. If Artemis was akin to a cheetah, then Troy was a lioness. Moreover, she was also one of the girls with the best figures present.
This might be related to her body's set age. Troy's physical age, after testing, is approximately around 16 to 17 years old for a normal human female, making her one of the older members in the Young Justice League.
However, if calculated by her actual age of birth, Troy is the youngest member of the team; even Conner is a few months older.
Troy's swimsuit choice was also on the more conservative side, a white one-piece swimsuit. However, people with good figures look good in anything, so this relatively conservative swimsuit on Troy also possessed a unique charm.
Through the form-fitting fabric, one could even faintly discern the outline of Troy's abdominal muscles.
It must be said, this Island vacation is already worth the ticket price just for appreciating the swimsuits of these girls.
The boys are also reaching that age where the allure of the opposite sex grows stronger each year. And with so many excellent women around, how could they not be restless?
Besides, this is America. Compared to other teenagers, the Children of the Young Justice League are already considered among the purest. After all, they usually just go to school and save the World, having no time to think about frivolous things.
Furthermore, the time arrangements of Superheroes and Ordinary People are completely different. This is documented in many Superhero Comics. Therefore, many Superheroes choose partners of equal Identity as their significant others.
In realistic terms, creating hype around Couples can boost Sales. Comics Company loves to do this. Some Couples are genuinely good, but equally often, it's a disaster.
But in reality, for these Superheroes, it's more akin to an Office Romance. People of the same Identity can not only understand each other, and there are many excellent individuals among Superheroes, making it the Optimal Solution in every sense.
Among the Justice League, a well-known Superhero Couple is Green Arrow and Black Canary. They support each other, advance hand in hand, and are indeed an enviable fairy-tale couple.
With these two Jewels as examples, it naturally influenced many people, including many Sidekick Heroes. Dick Grayson and Wally West are also among them.
After all, failed marriages among Superheroes are not uncommon. Having someone who understands you and can progress alongside you is naturally what many people dream of.
As for why only Dick and Wally are mentioned here, there is a Reason, of course.
"Wally, are you hungry?" Dick asked nonchalantly. Wally, upon being addressed, scratched his Head and realized he was indeed a bit hungry.
"Now that you mention it, I am." Wally rubbed his Belly, but a question quickly arose in his Mind. Why was this guy suddenly showing concern for him today? Usually, it was good enough if he didn't seize the opportunity to mock him for being a glutton.
Dick often used his characteristic of eating a lot to tease him. After all, Speedsters have a huge demand for Heat, so he usually carries Energy Bars and other High-Calorie Food with him, but obviously, there's no Space in his Swimsuit to store Food.
"I'm also a bit hungry." Dick finished his Drink in one gulp, then placed the Cup on the Table under the Parasol.
"In that case, let's have the two of us go get some Food."
Wally nodded upon hearing Dick say this. That's right, he thought, so that's why his bad Friend was suddenly showing concern; it turned out to be because this kid was also hungry.
"Alright then." Wally had no objection; perhaps he could take the opportunity to eat a little more.
The two of them walked towards their Residence with arms around each other's shoulders. The Residence wasn't far from the Seaside, less than a kilometer away. However, to preserve the Island's ambiance, Green Arrow had put considerable Thoughts into construction after purchasing the Island.
Therefore, while there were many Facilities on the Island, they were all cleverly concealed. For instance, the Residence was hidden in the Woods.
The Figures of the two quickly disappeared into the Forest. Once he was sure they were far enough away, Dick spoke again.
"So, Wally, do you have any Goals?"
Wally's Brain had been filled with Delicious Food until just now. At this Time, Dick's sudden Opening interrupted his Thoughts.
"What Goals? Are you asking if I can choose the Cuisine?"
"You really do have a Brain full of Food." Dick said, looking helpless. "I mean Girlfriends. Among our Teammates, is there anyone you're interested in pursuing?"
"Oh! You mean that." Wally slapped his Head, then lowered his Head to ponder.
To be honest, although as a Teenager in Puberty, he always had the Idea of wanting to pursue a partner, his Efforts in this Aspect had always been superficial. He'd put in some Effort at the Beginning, but when motivation waned, he'd stop.
For example, when Megan first joined, he had some Thoughts, but later he forgot about it. When he finally came to his senses, he realized that Conner and Megan had become lovey-dovey at some point without him noticing.
Then there was Courtney. No, that wouldn't work. They were too familiar. Just seeing her reminded Wally of the Fear of being dominated in his childhood.
Troy... Wally simply felt he could never win her over, so naturally, that was a pass too. As for Artemis...
Artemis's delicate Figure flashed in Wally's Mind. After indulging in it for a fleeting Time, he suddenly snapped back to reality and hurriedly shook his Head to banish those Thoughts.
"What's wrong? Such a strong Reaction?" Dick looked at Wally with an inquisitive Gaze.
"Uh, no Goals for now." Wally said dryly. Fortunately, a Speedster's thinking Speed is fast; otherwise, his embarrassing state would have been noticed by his bad Friend.
"But what about you? Do you have any Choices? And why did you only pull me aside? Why not Jackson and the others?"
Dick heard this and looked at Wally with a Gaze that said, 'You're an Idiot.' He didn't speak again until Wally looked like he was about to lose his patience.
"If you're not going to use that enviable thinking Speed of yours, you might as well donate it to someone who needs it."
Dick even pointed at himself after saying that, then quickly changed the Topic before Wally could get angry.
"First, there's Conner. Anyone with Eyes can see his relationship with Megan. They're practically at the finish line; it's just a matter of time before they make it official."
"Next is Jackson. Have you forgotten that he mentioned having a crush on someone?"
