“Well you’re always welcome to punch A.R.G.U.S. members in the face.” Marceline said with a shrug. “They definitely deserve it.” She added with a small smile.

“Ill keep that in mind.” She cuckled, “But like I said, punching doesn’t solve everything.”

“I hope so,” Jax said in a rare show of uncertainty. He wanted his dad to be proud of him. Proud of the man he had become and proud of how he had protected his family and their legacy.

“I think it’s her way of being close to dad,” he gave a small grin, “Don’t tell her you know, but the desk and chair she has in her office are dad’s. It was one of her few indulgences as CEO. She made surplus go find them in storage, restore it, and put it back,” Jax said. She said says it’s like she’s sitting in the office with him like when we were little.

He sighed, “Everyone hides in something. At least yours and Lux’s are a little more socially acceptable,” he said. “Just don’t remember to come up and breath. You know you’re always welcome at our house. Even if you come in with a mountain of work. “We’ll set you up with you - wait that’s it,” Jax said his head perking up. “Move-in with us. We’ve got plenty of room. Kon pushes everyone away that he has a choice about. He can’t do that with Lux and I because we live there. Move-in with us. Help us take care of Kon. He’s done such a good job of taking care of us it’s time for us to repay it. I can set you up with anything you need. Name it’s yours,” Jax promised.

“Trust me, as someone who knew your father very well, he would be very proud of the man you’ve grown into.” She looked at him, smiling softly.

“I can completely that.” She mused. Her office at the museum contained many trinkets from her late mother. It helped her feel close to her and it was a way for her to remember her mother everyday.

Cass shook her head at the offer, though smiling as she did. “I wouldn’t want to intrude on you guys. Plus I have my very cozy studio apartment. I appreciate the offer, but I also don’t know if Kon would be to happy with me there.

Her cerulean eyes scoured the notes in front of her that she knew backwards and forwards but still wasn’t sure of the answer. “I’m so close but still can’t seem to find him. I also don’t think he’s human from what I’ve recently gathered…”

“Don’t think he’s human?” She repeated looking over at her. What do you think he is then? “ She asked curiously, her eye flickering back to the notes.

“Nope, just trying to keep the kids alive. Signing whatever paperwork Lux puts in front of me. Mostly I just stay in the house,” Conner admitted. He knew he was a recluse. He didn’t care. It was easier to hide in the house away from painful reminders of what could have been.”

“Well knowing Lux, you may want to thoroughly read what you’re signing.” She said with a light chuckle. “You know, you really should get out and see the world more. Wait, how about you join me on my next trip? I’m going to Greece for two weeks to oversee a project.”

“Yeah I know.” Marceline said with a soft sigh. “It would be nice to have their help dealing with A.R.G.U.S.” She admitted. “Though I think an Invasion would further prove the point of ‘outsiders’ bad.” She added.

“Who knows, maybe all this conflict needs is more communication and less fighting. But, what do I know, I punch people for a living.”

“Dad’s, I was Dad’s favorite. Lux was Mom’s. We were reflections of their favorite people in the world. I think that’s why Lux and I never really competed. There wasn’t one to be had.

“No. Lux works too hard. Takes too much on. Refuses to take care of herself. I think if Kon hadn’t bargained two dinners a week as part of her emancipation, we’d never see her,” Jax said with a sigh. He worried about Lux most day. He knew she was terrific, but she was too serious for someone so young.

“Oh; I don’t doubt he’d check in on us. But I think the not aging thing is really getting to him. I noticed there are a few people he interacts with from when he was younger. I thought it was because of the anti-vigilante and anti-meta rules. But he won’t even talk to those that got out of the game.

She couldn’t help but flash a sad smile at the mention of Tim. “Well You’re Father was always a good judge of character.” she mused.

“Well I guess its true what they say. The apple does not fall far from the tree. I’d offer to talk to her, but I’m probably the last person who should be telling someone not to throw themselves completely into work.” She gestured to the work in front of her.

“It definitely seems to be something he thinks about alot.” She said thinking back to conversations she had had with Kon. She had seen less of him the more time had gone on, but to be fair, she pretty much saw less of everyone. Kon was one of the people she would still consider a close, if not best friend.

“I mean, I understand why she wanted it for me because she didn’t get to experience it when she was my age. But I know I’m not just an Amazon. There’s something else in me and I want to know what I am. She of all people should understand that.” She pushed her notebooks over to the blonde sitting across from her. “She’s never said a bad word about him but I see there’s some sadness every time she talks about him….I don’t want to see that. I can find it on my own.”

“Honestly, I get the feeling.” Cassie remembered back to when she was a teen and first discovered she wasn’t just a human, but the grandaughter of zeus. “And I’m sure you’re mother understands as well. But you know, for us it was the opposite.” She attempted to explain. Looking at the notes she perkedher eyebrow. “Well it seems you’ve been doing a lot of research.”

“It’s a curse, Cass. I’ll bury everyone. I’ll bury my family one grave at a time until I’m alone,” he said depression evident his voice.

Conner gave her a half smile. “Let’s just order,” he mumbled trying to move on from the conversation. He hadn’t meant to drag her down with him.

She flashed another small smile, letting the topic drop for now. “Right.” She said look over at the waiter and ordering a burger and fries. “So anyway. Anything new going on with you these days?” She said, attempting to lighten things up.

“I know the Amazons are my allies, but I don’t think I carry much weight in asking them to help fight this war against A.R.G.U.S.” Marceline said with a half laugh. “And I know that line well. Pretty sure it was engraved in my shield.” She added with a smile.

“You never know, they are very loyal.” She smiled. “I’m pretty sure it’s they’re favorite saying.” She joked

“She always said she wants what’s best for me - she got to live in this world, why can’t I?” Arianna kept her eyes on her notes. “Not exactly.”

“Thats fair. I mean I personally don’t think anyone should spend their whole lives on the island because you can become to sheltered.” Cass herself hardly spent much time on the island anymore, unless she was their to visit. She never felt like she belonged there much. She always felt like an outsider. “Well maybe you should talk to her. I mean I’m sure she has her reasons for keeping his identity secret. And maybe she would even be willing to point you in the right direction.”

“Lux is everyone’s favorite, Auntie, it’s no ones secret. It works for us,” he said with a shrug. “True words,” he corrected. His sister was the optimist, Jax preferred reality. Everyone had a price tag and a pressure point. You just had to find it. His Uncle Kon often joked that if he hadn’t been Bat-born and raised, he’d be a supervillain.

“She’s amazing. A superhero without the cape,” Jax said obviously proud of his big sister. His mom had made sure he knew there was no competition between them. People would try, but they couldn’t let them. Steph had pointed out that his strength was not shying away from the camera while Lux hated the limelight. It was a similar dynamic between his parents. Steph drew the fire, and Tim saved the day.”He’s Kon. He stays to himself. Takes care of business. I know it’s bothering him that I’m about to graduate. I - I think once I do, he’ll go away,” Jax admitted.

“Oh please, I’m sure you’re somebodies favorite.” She said with a soft smile. She shook her head. Both him and his sister always reminded Cass of Tim and Steph. Sometimes a little too much.

“So not much has changed with her.” She said grinning. “I see she’s been very busy lately. She shrugged as the other talked of Kon. “Yea that sounds like Kon. Though I doubt he’d ever leave you, even after you graduate. Trust me. I’ve been trying to get rid of Conner for over 20 years but he manages to stick like glue.” She teased.

“They make my job easy,” Conner said with a shrug. “I’m not meant to be a dad. Cadmus saw to that,” Conner said quietly. The idea of outliving all his make-shift family wore on him. He wouldn’t be able to handle surviving his child. It’s why he had avoided relationships. He’d want something he couldn’t have. Taking Jax and Lux was only due to their parents and owing Tim Drake, a debt he could never repay. The heartbreak of watching those kids grow old and die would have to do.

“I promise to chew with my mouth closed,” he grinned and teased.

“Conner..” She said softly, reaching out to put her hand on his. “You know you’re not alone you know.” She said knowingly. It was pretty obvious for someone who had know conner so long, He hadn’t aged a day in the 20 years she’d known him. Just like she had stopped aging a few years back due to her lineage. “Immortality has it’s draw backs.” She said softly, looking at him.

“I’m holding you to that.” She hummed

“Thousands? Bit of an exaggeration. Old age isn’t kind to all of us. That and a few injuries along the way. I’ve got a lot more scars and creaking bones than I did in my 20s.”Roy muttered. He also had two kids to worry about in a world full of bad - that aged him more than the fighting ever had.

“Not an exaggeration, no.” She shrugged. “I guess it pays to have the blood of gods.” She mused. Cassie had practically stopped aging years ago and never had any soreness. She also didn’t have the stress of family to age her, even if she did now find herself wishing she did.

“It’s been pretty hectic around here that is for sure. A.R.G.U.S. certainly has made life tough for Metas. Me included.” Marceline said. “It has been a little refreshing seeing others from the island. I feel a little less lonely.” She commented to the blonde.

“If life were never hectic, we would not know peace.” She recited an old teaching from the Amazon’s. “And you will always have the Amazon’s as allies, and me,” She smiled.

“No; don’t say that. They had a dad. And a mom. And they were good parents. I just make sure they get fed and hydrated and actually sleep. Cause as awesome as they are. They are their parents all over again. Lux lets too much pressure be put on her and Jax is ever the sarcastic showman who’s protecting what’s his.”

Conner grinned, “Dinner with one of my best friends? Is this supposed to be a punishment,” he asked as he called the waiter over to order dinner.”

“They did. They had a great mom and a great dad. Now they have a great you.” She smiled soft as she thought of her missing friends. “And also, I’m pretty sure those are all a things a dad does.” She hummed. She looked over the menu as Conner called the waitress over. “You’re right, what was I thinking. This is more a punishment for me.” She said teasingly.

“I’ll have to introduce you to one of the many contacts that help refugees get there. It’s to dangerous to have written or spoken directions to Sanctuary.” Marceline admitted. A smile crossed her face as Cassie explained what she had been up to.

“Well certainly sounds like you were being a general badass in England.” She joked. “Still it’s nice to see you here.” Marceline said before a tired sigh escaped her.

“You know me, just being a badass wherever I go.” She joked. “Its actually nice to be back, minus all the chaos here.” She mused. “I’ve missed seeing so many familiar faces.”

“Hey, I’m more than a pretty face,” he said with a grin, “Lux is just the one who acts better in public. I can help with this if you want,” Jax offered. He hated to see his family stressed or tired, and his Aunt Cassie worked harder than most. “And if you can’t solve a problem throwing money at it, you’re not throwing enough,” he said with a charming smile before hailing a waiter for a refill for his aunt and his own hot tea.

“Whatever you say kiddo.” She said with a soft chuckle. “Well that why Lux is secretly my favorite.” She hummed teasingly. “I’m all set, but thanks for offering. .” She said spotting her empty cup. “Wise words.” She mocked rolling her eyes. “So how is Lux?” She asked turning to him “And Kon?” She added curiously.
