A/N:  There is two Roy Harpers here, sorry.  Arsenal is with Jason, Red Arrow is with Dick... it'll make sense in a bit.

Also, really cute photo of Dick and Roy...

"I wonder when they'll come!" Jason said anxiously, twirling his guns and shooting at the targets in the trees.

"I have no idea, but I really hope it's soon!" Dick answered, twirling his eskrima sticks high into the air and catching them like a baton twirler.

"Well, if I know them well enough they'll be a little late, you know?" Tim told them, bo staff twirling in figure eight patterns around his body.

"Yeah..." Dick said, then turned to Jason, "Jay, get the cigarette out of your mouth.   You know, one of them in bound to ask for a cigar if you do it!"

"Mainly one of the gingers!" Tim teased Jason with a nudge.

"What are you guys talking about?  Who's coming to visit?" Damian asked, looking at his brothers curiously.

"Only our best friends in the world!" Dick answered, not seeing the hurt look on his youngest brother's face, "We haven't seen them in like-"

"A few months Dickie, we saw them in January!" Jason said, smirking at his older brother.

Suddenly a swoosh greeted the waiting ears of boys, and they looked up to the sky.

Starfire was floating up in the sky smiling down on the boys with a friendly face.  Superboy flew in the air beside her, his jacket twisting with the wind.  Wondergirl and Troia hovered side by side in a sassy manner, but both had a happy look on their face.  The Arrow Plane hovered beside them, and Red Arrow and Arsenal both saluted down to the boys.  On top of the wings, Kid Flash and Flash were bumping knuckles... while Tempest smiled at their antics.

"Kori!  Roy!" Jason ran to the door to great his friends, guns in his holsters.

"Conner!  Bart!  Cassie!"  Tim jumped off the patio to run into his friends, bo staff strapped on his back.

"Garth!  Wally!  Donna!  Roy!" Dick flipped out the window to hug his best friends, eskrima sticks on his belt.

"That's something I'll never be able to do..." Damian said, sadly stuffing his hands into his pockets, "I'll never have best friends."

"I can't believe we haven't seen each other since January!" Kori was telling Jason, "I've missed you so much, well both Roy and me!"

"Yeah bro, missed the normal gossip time with you!" Roy said, rubbing his tattooed arms.

"Yeah, missed reminiscing also!" Jason replied, "Hey remember that time we went to the beach, and Kori you had the cutest bathing suit?"

"We went to the beach a lot of times!" Kori said laughing, "And I had cute bathing suits every time!"

"Of course you did..." Roy responded, laughing.

"You went to the beach?" Damian popped out of the shadows to look at Jason.

"Oh, is that Damian?" Kori asked, "Aw.... isn't he cute?"

"Cute, isn't the word to describe this devil!" Jason said, with a warning shake of head.

"Don't call your brother a devil!" Roy said, "That nickname is reserved for me!"

The three elder superheroes burst out laughing like it was some inside joke, and Damian turned away, going up to Tim's room.
