Phantom: *in his living form w/a mask, coiled up and scribbling on some worksheets with textbooks surrounding him*
Kid Flash: *spread out over Phantom's coils, watching him work*
Flash: Hey kiddos- Kid Flash are making Phantom do your homework?
Kid Flash: What? No! I copy my homework pages and let Phantom have the empty copies!
Green Arrow: Why? I thought kids hated homework.
Phantom: I missss ssschool. The normalcy of it, the knowledge. After I became a ghossst I ssstruggled a lot with homework and attending classssesss, but I ssstill went. But now, I'm a Naga, and I can't go to ssschool anymore. Wal-Kid Flash has been helping me catch up, even if I can't go to ssschool anymore, I atleassst won't be completely ssstupid.
Kid Flash: You're not stupid, I barely had to teach you anything. If anything, once you caught up, you started tutoring me!
Green Arrow and Flash: *share a sad, thoughtful, and determined look*
Green Arrow: Hey is Phantom around?
Superboy: *points to the living room*
Phantom: *stretched out over the couch, holding his hands out for Miss Martian to paint while Kid Flash is leaning against him, and Robin and Aqualad are sitting on the floor next to them as they all chat*
Phantom: *looks up, tongue flickering curiously*
Green Arrow: Hey kid, remember that conversation from a while ago?
Flash: About you going to school?
Green Arrow: We signed you up for online school.
Flash: *grins widely as he hands Phantom a laptop*
Phantom, whispering: What?
Flash: Yeah! It took a while because we had to make you an identity slightly based on your birth one, and that, my friend isn't easy. Even for us.
Green Arrow: You still have to pick your classes, but everything is online, you type your answers into an online document, or you can print out the worksheets and scan them before sending them to your teacher.
Flash: Right sorry, Nest. But your Nest has internet right?
Green Arrow: Then there you go! There are mandatory video classes, but its not hard to hide your tail with a computer laptop.
Phantom: But the essss sssoundsss I make-
Flash: In your medical file, the hissing was cited as a vocal stim.
Phantom: *eyes misty as he stares at them in awe.* Thank you. *hugs the laptop to his chest while his tail moves to wrap around the two heros*
Green Arrow, startled: Oh!
Phantom: *squeezes the two heros in a hug while trying not to cry*
Kid Flash: *grinning and patting his friend on his back in support*
