How To Guess a Robin's Identity

Languages

This time with the team is discussing languages. This is part of a small three shot in which the team is having a week of special training.

Anyway hope you enjoy and thank you reading.

Robyn out.

The team was lounging in the main room watching static. It was the weekend, meaning a relaxing day at the cave and more importantly, no school! Artemis and Wally were fighting over who knows what, M'gann was trying to convince Conner to change the channel, Conner was resisting M'gann, Kaldur was reading a book and Robin was laughing at Wally and Artemis. A normal day at the cave all in all.

Black Canary chose that moment to walk in. The team had been waiting for her arrival as they had been informed that they would be going through a week of 'special' training, although Black Canary had refused to tell them any details. The group stood up, finishing what they were doing, to pay attention to the elder hero. They had all been excited for this 'special' training (it would be nice to not spend time being thrown/throwing each other onto the floor for once) although they were a bit nervous to see what it would include.

"Sit down. This week instead of focusing on strength or physical abilities, we will be working on mental abilities. Starting with languages." Black Canary announced as she sat on an arm chair.

Everyone settled down, prepared to listen to Black Canary. Kaldur sat in an armchair, M'gann and Conner shared a sofa, Artemis and Wally shared another sofa and Robin had the last armchair.

"First, why are languages important?" Black Canary asked looking around at the young heroes.

"You can use them to find your way in foreign countries or worlds." Kaldur stated.

"You can find out information on missions even though the people don't speak English." Robin added.

"You can make friends all across the world." M'gann smiled.

"They help you pass in school if you are to busy doing hero work to study." Artemis shrugged.

"You can live in foreign countries or can fit in if you go undercover." Conner replied.

"Emm, you can ... You can ... I have nothing. Why do you guys get all the good answers?" Wally whined.

"All good answers" Black Canary ignored Wally who was pouting slightly (until Artemis elbowed him). "Now we will go around and see what languages you know. Then chose to learn or revise one as a group for now." She continued looking around at the team. "Artemis, why don't you start?"

Everyone turned to look expectedly at Artemis, who shifted in her seat, uncomfortable with all of the attention. "Well I know English, obviously, and I know Vietnamese. I am learning Spanish in school and if it counts I can cuss like a sailor in Italian, Russian and French." Artemis listed, ticking them off her fingers.

"Where did you learn to cuss in all those languages?" M'gann asked curiously.

"You hear lots of different stuff on the streets of Gotham." Artemis shuddered.

Robin hi-fived her. "Go Gotham!"

"That's really good Artemis. Now Wally, what about you?" Black Canary nodded to Artemis, then turned to look at Wally.

"I know English and I'm learning Spanish in school too, I'm really good at it." He boasted. "Oh I also know a little Romani." Wally said awkwardly, slightly ashamed that he didn't know as many as Artemis. Robin grinned at him for the Romani though.
