"I'VE NEVER SEEN a cat look so menacing in tactical gear," Wally joked, looking down at Electra in Kamila's arms. They were in the kitchen (because that's were you go when you need to find a speedster), and Kamila had just come back from Starlabs with her kitty.

After a magnitude of tests, it was revealed that Electra hadn't been give cobra venom like wolf had, but she had been experimented on. The experiments left her without any pain receptors, and a sixth sense for electricity. After a few tests, she could only feel when in contact with electricity or power of some kind.

They also deduced that Electra had been genetically modified to be resistant to electricity, like Kamila was.

Because of this, and because of the Cat's loyalty, star labs agreed to make it a fucking superhero suit. Which- yeah. Sure. Why the fuck not. Honestly, Kamila think Cisco saw the opportunity to make a superhero suit for an animal, and took it without a second thought.

It was clear that Electra hated collars, so they settled for a walking vest. It had the same camouflage tech the others' suits had, and even a small energy signature for Kamila to track the cat with in the form of a recording device.

Kamila had a pet surveillance cat.

"Hey, my eyes are up here," Kamila teased. Electra was being held in her arms as if she were a baby, and purring loudly.

Wally looked up to her eyes, "you say that like you mind?"

She rolled her eyes and placed Electra on the ground, "you're lucky I love you."

When she stood up, Wally was grinning, so she felt the need to ask, "what's with that look on your face?"

"You love~ me," he teased, and Kamila playfully rolled her eyes.

"Stop you sound like Daniel," she shoved his shoulder and....

Hold the fuck up.

"You grew," she declared. "You're taller. You're like my height now... what the hell?"

Wally raised an eyebrow, "you sound surprised. My dad is like- 6 feet tall."

"I am! I've been taller than you my whole life!" She groaned, "this like- shifts the power dynamic or something!"

"If it makes you feel better, I'm pretty sure Miss M uses me as a scale for how tall she needs to be when shape shifting into her normal form," he made a sour face at the thought, "it's kinda funny until she makes a show of shrinking around SB."

"Speaking of Miss M and SB,"
Kamila quieted her voice down, "you didn't tell Artemis they were dating right? I'm pretty sure she still has that small thing for Connor and I wasn't really supposed to tell you..."

"You say that like I never would've found out," he whispered back, "they were sooooo obvious-"

"They've been crushing on eachother since they first met, kissed on the Bailya mission, and started dating after the Belle Reve mission," Kamila raised an eyebrow, "you thought they started dating the second I told you."

"Wait really?" He blinked, "oh my god that's why they were standing so close in the hanger right before the reds attacked... also why are we still whispering?"

Kamila snorted and kissed the corner of his mouth, "again, you're lucky I love you."

Artemis stood up from the couch, pulling off her headphones and putting her phone away, "okay, just because I have headphones on doesn't mean you guys can act all..." she waved her hand around them, "lovey. I may not be able to hear you, but I can still see you!"
