Though I'm far away across the sea,
This moon keeps haunting me
As I spread my wings and sour above,
It's you, you're guiding me
And the morning sun still shines on me
I feel your power too
And the passing tides in paradise
As we stand beneath... this full moon
Loco finished singing as she floated on her back in the pool. (Mount Justice has a pool in this story)
A light clapping drew her attention to entrance and saw the figures of Miss Martian and Superboy standing there.
"Wow!" Miss Martian beamed.
"I-I'm sorry, was I being too loud?" Loco shrank back, her head now only above water.
"No, no, no, no, no, I was gonna say you have a lovely voice."
"Oh, thank you Miss Martian."
"Please, call me M'gann, or Meghan, either is fine."
"Ok... M'gann." A content but awkward silence overcame the group.
"Was there something you needed?" Loco asked, climbing out of the pool.
"She baked some cookies and came to ask if you wanted some ." Superboy said before M'gann could.
That made Loco sit upright.
"I've never had cookies before."
"Then probably don't start with hers, unless you like burnt and rock solid." Superboy teased, earning him a small smack to his chest.
"I've been working on them. I've gotten better."
Loco chuckled.
"I'm sure, they're fine and yes I'd love to try them."
That made M'gann smile, Loco was about to get out of the pool, Conner offered his hand to help her out, which she graciously accepted.
"Thank you Superboy."
"Just call me Conner."
"Conner."

*Chip*
Loco was pretty sure one of her teeth chipped.
Superboy-Conner was right, seriously what were these things made of? Coral?!
"They're... lovely..." Loco said, trying to hide the pain in her voice as she swallowed.
"It's okay if you don't like it, I'm still trying to get the recipe right."
"Maybe you just need to cook them for too long." Loco said with a forced smile, she might need to scrape her tongue clean after this.
