Chapter 888 Dick: I'm Very Devoted
Wally carefully recalled, and finally dredged up past memories in his mind.
"He seems to have mentioned it, something about an Atlantean, called... what was it again?"
"Tula," Dick added. "They grew up together, and there's also a boy named Garth. Jackson just said a few minutes ago that he was going to invite them to hang out with us, remember?"
"Oh, oh! I remember now."
To be honest, if Dick hadn't brought it up, Wally probably wouldn't have remembered. He was too focused on the golden Beach and the azure Sea at the time.
"As for Habby," Dick said, touching his Chin. "Honestly, not to Bad Words behind a Friend's back, but I feel like it's going to be hard for him to find a Girl who likes him."
Wally agreed. Mutant Appearance is indeed not something Ordinary Person can easily accept. They, as boys, might think it's cool, but finding a partner who accepts that look is going to be tough.
So, they both decided to drop this Topic and tacitly switched to another one.
"Let's talk about you instead," Wally said, leaning forward, noticing that the Residence was only a couple of hundred meters away. "Is there a Girl you like?"
Dick touched his Chin and said, "Honestly, our Partner are all outstanding women."
Hearing these Words, Wally looked at his Friend like he was meeting him for the first time, wearing a very surprised Expression.
"You're not going to become a Playboy, are you? Playing the field?"
"What are you thinking?" Dick rolled his eyes. Although his Guardian Batman, regardless of Identity, is a Guy with incredible Romantic Luck, that doesn't mean Dick has to imitate him.
In Dick's Heart, he still admired the Love his Parents had. Even though he idolized Batman, his View of Love had been shaped by his Parents since he was a Child.
It has to be said that good Parents have a really big impact on Children.
Therefore, Batman has stated more than once that he doesn't want Dick to become a Human like him, but Dick doesn't quite understand the meaning of these Words yet.
"I would never do such a Thing. I'm just being cautious. Being cautious is better for both me and my future partner, you know?"
Wally nodded repeatedly, agreeing with everything Dick said. Dick rolled his eyes again, but decided not to argue and continued talking.
"Troia is a Demigod, and her Lifespan is not compatible with us Human. It's better to stay away from the terrifying Longevity Issue. Artemis is too mysterious, and mystery means Danger, so pass."
"So, considering everything, Courtney is currently the most suitable Choice of Person."
"That tomboy?" Wally's Mouth dropped open. "Are you really that desperate?"
"That's just your Perspective, Wally," Dick said, sounding helpless. "Because you guys grew up together, you and Courtney are too familiar with each other. It makes it hard for you to see Courtney as a normal woman. If you step outside that Perspective, you'll realize how amazing Courtney is."
Just as Dick finished speaking, they arrived at the Residence. It was a Building that resembled a Mansion, but smaller than a typical Mansion.
The entire Building had three floors. The first floor was the Mansion area, with the Kitchen, Restaurant, and Hall all located there. The second floor had a Study Room, an entertainment room, and some bedrooms. The third floor was just bedrooms.
It looked like a classic European-style Building, but inside it was all High-Tech. The entire Building was equipped with an AI Butler, and all the Electrical Appliances in the Mansion could be controlled by voice commands.
The Mansion's AI Butler had two System: one for Ordinary Person and another for the Justice League. The Children naturally used the second System.
Walking to the Door, they waited for the Camera on the Gate to finish Scanning. Then, with a click, the Gate opened, and they pushed the Door open and went inside.
…
After Dick and Wally left, the others didn't go back to the Beach to play volleyball. They decided to sit together and chat while waiting for the two to bring back Food.
In the meantime, Courtney had an idea. She said she wanted to talk about some Girls' Topics, so she took all the Girls to another Pavilion and warned the boys not to eavesdrop.
These Words were mainly directed at Gutrot and Conner, since one of them had Telepathy and the other had Super Hearing. Jackson didn't have the Ability to eavesdrop.
Conner said he was bored, and Gutrot nodded in agreement. He was busy monitoring Dick and Wally and didn't have Time to eavesdrop on Girls' Love Topic.
Unlike his Main Body who stayed in the DC Universe, as a Clone Technique, he had a strong sense of self-awareness and was a complete sigma Mutant.
Superheroes' Love Life is already a mess. If you can't offer a Future, don't make things worse. As for starting a Harem? Forget about that Thing.
Forget about whether Diana would hack him to Death. Would those female Hero with Personality debase themselves like that? Reality isn't like those dog Shit Comics drawn by dog Shit Writers.
While the Girls were gone, Gutrot had already secretly listened in on Dick and Wally's conversation. His assessment was: don't speak too confidently.
It's true that Dick, often called Young Master, doesn't have as many women around him as his adoptive father. But the Relationship History of a man with the soul of the DC Universe will never be ordinary.
Yang Le couldn't remember exactly who they were, only Starfire, who was considered his official pairing. But he knew Dick's Girlfriend were definitely too many to count on two hands.
But like Dick said, he hadn't dated multiple Girlfriends at the same Time. Although he changed them often, each Relationship was very focused.
Well, better than his adoptive father.
But that's all in the Future. The current Dick is just an innocent young cook.
After Gutrot snapped out of his eavesdropping State, he noticed the other two were just staring at each other.
This was normal. Unlike Dick and Wally, Jackson had been in the Sea during the time Hero Activities were prohibited. He hadn't contacted anyone, let alone Conner, so he didn't know much about Conner and naturally couldn't find a Topic to talk about.
And Conner, he was even worse. He was usually quiet anyway, and recently he'd been sulking, making him even more of a closed book. You couldn't get a Fart out of him with a crowbar. At this point, probably only Megan could get him to Opening up.
So, while Gutrot was completely focused on eavesdropping, these two remained in Silence. Through his powerful Perception, he could sense that they were both dying of embarrassment.
But Gutrot wasn't going to break the ice. He shifted his Gesture on the Beach chair and went back to pretending to Sleep.
Unlike the boys over here, the Girls over there were having a much livelier time.
