[ considering she's been kind of avoiding him since the whole team pow wow, this call might be out of the blue. she certainly doesn't sonud too happy about it. ]

Hey... Wally? It's M'gann. Um.

I was wondering if we could... talk. Maybe. If you're not busy or anything!

[ wally's a little hesitant to return her message at first, anxious about what she could want to talk about the day before the big raid. he paces back and forth around the room before deciding to take a run around haven, eventually settling in the park in the haven to return her call. ]

Hey, babe, you rang? I'm free to talk if you still want to.

[ his voice sounds a little rough, almost like there's something stuck in his throat. that would be the anxiety he's currently feeling about this conversation, because of course he's assuming the worst. also nope, he still hasn't gotten out of the habit of calling her babe. sorry supey. ]

[ honestly, the amount of time it took for wally to get back to her had been nerve-wracking. she'd been pingponging between the certainty that these phones were faulty or the certainly that he truly did hate her now.

she's so relieved when he finally phones that she doesn't even think to correct him. ]

Great! [ there's a pause on her end, recalling vaguely how these phones might not be the most... reliable. ] Um. Where are you right now? Can we meet up?

[ oh no megs he could never hate you, he's just a little... put off. he's impatient and everyone telling him he needs to wait and wait and wait because getting his memories back isn't 'the priority' pisses him off. sure, he's being selfish, but he deserves to be on the same page as everyone else. ]

I'm down in The Haven, at the park. I can wait for you here or we can meet somewhere in between, up to you.

I'll meet you there!

[ even though, technically, she's not entirely sure where "there" is. but it's easy enough to find him, to pinpoint his location using her telepathy. he won't feel anything on his end, of course, but it's a simple matter of slipping into his mind and figuring out his location from there. sort of like a homing device or gps signal!

in any case, she gets there in no time, having flown the entire way. she's opted to leave the cape "at home" this time around, instead dressed in her more casual megan attire. as soon as she spots him, she waves and walks over. ]

Hi.. thanks for meeting with me.

[ wally pushes back his mask/hood and smiles back at her when she sees her walking toward him, even though his heart is beating way faster than he'd like. he's still nervous about what this is all about, but he's trying to play it off. ]

Anything for you, Megs. Now what is it you wanted to talk about...?

[ she looks nervous, though she makes an effort to at least look like she's confident... ]

Your memories. [ might as well get straight to the point. she knows it's what he's been wanting. ]

I.. want to try and fix it. If you're willing.

[ oh.

he was kind of hoping she'd say that but now that she actually has, it's like there's a lump in his throat and his voice cracks a little. ]

Willing? Heck yeah, babe, I've been willing since I first got here.

[ then there's a split second of panic that crosses his face. ]

... No one else knows about this, right?

[ because he knows they'd all try to stop this from happening. 'too risky.' ]

—um. No, no one... [ she looks around a little in nervousness, as if half-expecting the rest of the team to suddenly pop up out of the corners and catch them.

she misreads the panic on his face, though, and hastily waves her hands in the air to try and placate him. ]

I can do this without them — I don't need a babysitter. It'll be fine. You'll be fine. I promise.

[ wally nods, relaxes a little. ]

Alright. I trust you.

[ he leaves off the 'babe' just to show he's serious. ]

Let's do this.

[ the smile she gives him is nothing short of grateful. that, at this point, he barely even knows her, but still trusts her with something so precious... his trust is priceless, able to give her that boost in confidence that she needed. ]

Thanks, Wally.

[ she steps up then. with one hand on her temple, and another on his, she begins to concentrate. eyes turn a bright white as she starts to delve into his mind, and in turn, takes him a little into hers. he can see it, then, like multiple tv screen all around him, flashes of memory of a team he doesn't remember meeting.

she's careful to only give him what he needs... ]

[ the experience is... interesting to say the least. he doesn't quite know where he is, but megan is there, and there are flashes of things he didn't know he knew until just now. as he watches everything unfold, he starts to remember...

get on board, or get out of the way...

hello, megan!

cool, souvenir!

so now el luchador is our leader?

if dislike is the opposite of like, is disaster the opposite of aster? see, instead of things going wrong, they go right!

besides, i can't be mad at you, you gave me mouth to mouth!

fine! fine! i lied about believing in magic. but magic is the real lie, a major load...

so i'm your ninja boyfriend huh?

he's back in bialya, the events replaying themselves in his head, and then he's not. he's back in haven, with m'gann, with his team. he feels a little disoriented, reaching out to grab at m'gann's arm to steady himself, but otherwise he's fine. he feels... complete. ]

Whoa. That was... trippy.

[ as soon as his hand curls around her arm, she's there, a step closer, both hands up and on him to help keep him steady. it's the panic that fuels her, keeps her eyes wide and careful, looking over him for any signs of distress. worried she might have done something wrong, she's almost relieved for a typical wally response, casually underrating everything. ]

It can be, yeah... [ despite the little tremble in her tone, she looks so utterly relieved.

one hand settles over the hand he's got on her, while the other slips up to gently cup his cheek. she'd been so scared... ]

How do you feel?

[ his heart nearly stops when m'gann touches his cheek, because it wasn't until about five seconds ago that he had any idea how much he really likes this girl, superboy's glaring looks be damned. he tries to laugh off any awkwardness, smiling reassuringly back at her. ]

Better.

[ he hesitates for a split second. he could kiss her — almost does — but he doesn't. ]

Thank you.

[ it occurs to him then that he still doesn't actually remember zatanna, but he doesn't want to worry her about it right now. it seems like she's put herself through enough just doing this for him. ]

[ better. better. overcome with relief and joy, m'gann can't help but draw him into a hug, and while it might not be a kiss, it's definitely all-encompassing enough that he can't hope to get out of it any time soon. ]

Thank goodness...

[ he isn't exactly expecting the hug, but there's no way he doesn't appreciate it. he's a pretty huggy person himself, after all. he hugs her back, squeezing lightly. he could let himself indulge in this affection, but they should probably get going... ]

We should probably head back now, it's getting late.

Hey man - where are you?

[okay so he might have been a little worried after the earthquake happened. so it's only natural that he'd touch base with everyone on his team!!!]

Hope you've been holding up alright.

Yeah, I'm okay. Have you heard from Rob yet?

Not yet. I left a message, but I don't think he's gotten to it yet.

Hey. Um, I got some questions about Luthor in your world. I mean, if that's cool. I know we don't know each other that well yet, but it's kind of -- important.

((ooc: Kon's not aware that at Wally's canon point none of the Luthor-Conner connection has come out yet, but I am! Let me know if you'd like to avoid future (for Wally at least) spoilers or anything like that!))

Uh. You mean Lex Luthor? The businessman? Founder of LexCorp?

What about him?

Sorry, about that. I needed a moment. I inadvertently imagined a world with more than one Lex Luthor and I creeped myself out.

But yeah, that's the one. Conner and I talked a bit about him, but I'm wondering -- how did you guys address the problem?

Uh. What problem? The fact that he's a corporate scumbag with probable ties to who knows how many illicit operations? Cuz there's not a whole lot we can do about that. I mean, I'm sure the police and investigative journalists are all over it, but, you know, he's crazy good at covering his tracks, so... not a lot of evidence to work with.

[Pause.

That isn't the reaction Kon expected and he is ... not sure what to make of it.]

Yeah, he is ... crazy good at that.

Nothing more personal, though?
