Wally and Jade being idiot best friends

Hobbies

Summary: "Jade knits an ugly sweater and forces Wally to wear it."

"Since when do you knit?" Wally asked, staring at the disturbingly cozy sight of Jade slouched on the couch, her legs tucked underneath her.

Her eyes flicked up from her project, needles clicking slowly but steadily and bright turquoise yarn unrolling from a skein and becoming part of the lumpy mess in her lap. "Since Artemis told me that I needed to get a hobby or she'd forcibly send me to therapy."

"And you chose...knitting?"

Jade shrugged. "She said target shooting and sparring were out. So I went with the next best thing."

Wally squinted, unbelieving. "Knitting?"
She smirked and raised her hands for a moment. "Giant needles."

He rolled his eyes and laughed. "All right, good point. But...seriously?"

"It's not that bad, honestly." Jade hums in response.

"Why not choose cooking that involves fire and way more sharp things?" Wally asked,

"Oh well, Roy said I'm not allowed in the kitchen after I burnt gravy, ate tide pods, and "accidentally" scooped out one of my dad's eye with a spoon." Jade said, giggling in amusement.

"Wha- how? I don't even? HOW CAN YOU BURN GRAVY, IT'S A LIQUID?!?! WHY DID YOU EAT A TIDE POD AND NOT INVITE ME?! And good job for the last one your father sucks." Wally shouts out in confusion?!

"Don't worry just get some tide pods and we'll both eat some. Just don't tell Artemis or Roy cause they'll get mad." Jade chirps out happily.

"Fine, I can get some in a week." Wally grumbles.

After somewhat calming himself down Wally wandered over to the couch to get a closer look at the project and very carefully hid the look that crossed his face as he took in what he guessed what supposed to be a garment of some sort. It was a jumble of hideously bright colors smashed together in crooked stripes.

"You, uh...you pick out those colors?"
"Yep."
"That's, um, cool."
"Glad you think so." She finished a stitch and held up the finished project.
"What is it?"
"A sweater, obviously. What do you think?"
"It's...nice."
"Good." Jade smiled innocently. "Cuz it's yours."
He blinked. "What?"
"I made you a sweater!"
"Uh..."

"C'mon Wally - you wouldn't want to discourage me from my new hobby, would you?" She blinked sweetly up at him.
He hesitated, but she gave him a pout and he sighed and gave in and he squirmed into the awkward garment.
Jade smirked and whipped out her phone, snapping off a series of pictures. "Oh, this is going on Instagram."

"You better not be lying about the tide pods" Wally grumbled.
