M'gann's P.O.V
I'm only supposed to read the bad guys minds...  I just had to know, it was eating at me so much!!!  So..  I took my chance once we properly began our mission... I had to know, so when we walked into the ballroom, and dispersed among the guests.  I set up a mind link, just me and him, I silenced my mind and listened...  It's quiet, that doesn't happen often, the only people who's minds have been this silent when I have read them was Red Tornado, Batman, and Robin...  Robin and Batman were good at concealing their thoughts, they've trained a lot to have a locked mind.  Oh no, someone's grabbed my arm, I am being pulled through the crowd to the door!!! Is it the villains, are they singling me out??!!  I'm pulled out the door and hear an angry hushed voice.
"Get out of my head! Now!!!"
Oh, oh no, he caught me!!!!
"I-uh-um-wh-... what do you mean??? I wasn't- Dick Grayson? Talking to me and just me? Oh how I am uh???" Wait... wait what's that word?? Artemis told me about it when she found out about my 'shipping'... uhhhhhhhdndnsnKKjbdbjejajhaehnnnn??.?.? Oh that's it!!! "Fangirling over this situation!" I practically shout to try and cover myself. "Oh how my heart is-mfhm!" Suddenly I feel a hand on my mouth shutting me up.
I look down to see Dick shushing me aggressively, "SHHHHH!!! There is a reason I brought us to a private area! Are you really that telligent?" He paused for a moment and muttered something along the lines that if someone was intelligent than the opposite must be telligent.
"Uh... yes?" At that response her simply rolled his eyes and gave me such an annoyed Robin/Batman look.
"M'gann... why were you looking in my mind? And answer in a hushed tone, I don't want some random person finding us and eavesdropping."
"Well you see... I... Uh-"
"Answer truthfully, I will know if you are lying... you stutter and your cheeks turn a lighter shade of green."
"Uh... fine. Because you just seemed so familiar, but I couldn't quite figure out why. And as hard as I tried my curiosity got the best of me! Especially when you did your whole look when Wally and Arty started arguing! It was just so!!! You!!!"
"Shhhhhhh! Hush woman! What did I just tell you... wait, so you know... that I. Am. Robin..." he stopped with a shocked saddened look, then he squinted and peruses his lips and then spoke in a hurried voice, "what look?"
"Oh, you know... the look..."
"What look?"
"Uh-"
"WHAT LOOK???!!!"
"WellyouknowthelookyoumakewheneverWallygetsdistractedbyArtemis,theonewhereyougofromjealoustosadtonormalagainintheblinkofaneye!" I felt so pressured and ended up talking so fast that maybe only an alien like me could ever understand, and that thought was definitely confirmed by the confusion that was prominent on Dick's face.
"What," he drawled out slowly as if to emphasize that was the speed he wanted me to respond.
"Sorry, you made me nervous... I said, Well you know the look you make whenever Wally gets distracted by Artemis, the one where you go from jealous to sad to normal again in the blink of an eye." I said this time at a normal pace, repeating exactly what I said word for word. 
He the paused and look at me in contemplation, the he sighed and said, "Damn, can you really read me that well?"
"I guess... do you want to talk about it? Not to pry or anything!  I know I am not supposed to do that to the good guys!"
"Really?  Because I'm pretty sure I just caught you reading my mind," he smirked at me.
"Heh heh ha, yeah... sorry...  it's just...  well I see that look on your face ever time and you just seem so alone...  I get the feeling that, well, you don't have anyone to talk about you feelings with," I sighed and tried to give him a reassuring smile, but it came out more sad and shy, "I want you to know I am your teammate, friend... family, and I am here for you...  also I like talking about boys and Arty refuses to do anything of the sort with me!" I said trying to lighten the mood.

Robins P.O.V
I can't believe M'gann of all people caught me! Oh, Batman's going to absolutely kill me!!! Then her!!!  But, it kinda nice, someone other than Wally.  Man, I love that guy (obviously), but I can't tell him my really personal things because he is one of the most important ones...  and there is no way I am letting him know that!  Confessing without some kinda other person to lean on for support before and after is terrifying and I absolutely refuse to do it!!!  And... and M'gann figured that out too...  she really is amazing... going to be one of the best hero's one day...(we ignore cannon like the strong hero's we are!  I just want my babies to be good, is that too much to ask???  I've never interjected the story like this before... sorry) and now she is giving me such a supportive smile...
"I want you to know I am your teammate, friend... family, and I am here for you...  also I like talking about boys and Arty refuses to do anything of the sort with me!"
Family eh, I like the sound of that.  And I don't mind at all...  ever since I was nine my family has been chosen and unofficial, so it's not that new of a concept to me.  This... this makes me happy...
"Boy talk?  I have never done that before... your the first one to know.  I don't think I would know where to start." I said, letting out the air that I did realize I was holding...  or perhaps it represented what I have been just holding in me and never letting go of until this point.  Maybe, this was just what I needed.  I give M'gann the biggest smile I can muster, and suddenly I am just laughing, and I can't stop!  It's like someone pulled the plug on a drain and everything is being released!  Soon enough M'gann has joined in on my contagious laughing fit, and we spend the next long while laughing until we collapse on each other, holding each other, with our sides aching so much that we could laugh anymore if we tried.  So we just lie there on the floor holding each other for a while.  Then I rolled over so that my head was on her stomach and I could feel her chest rising and falling, slowly reaching a slower pace as too calm down from our laughing fit.
"So... how do we start?" I asked, I didn't lie when I said I'd never done this kinda thing before.
"How about I start?  Once I got on for a bit you'll get the flow, and hopefully loosen up."
"Sounds good to me."
"Okay, now where to start... oh I know!  So the other Conner told me that-" after that M'gann went on and on about Superboy for at least 5minutes if not 10.  Then it eventually came to my turn.  I spilled everything.  Everything I ever wished to talk about, gush over, and sort out out loud with someone.  Most of was my feelings for Wally, when I fell in love with him, all the times he made my heart flutter, the cutest thing he's done the past couple days, and most importantly how jealous and sad I get when he bickers with Artemis and how I get thinking I could never have home for myself.  And she listened.  Not only did she listen, she gave me advice where I needed it, boosted my confidence where I felt down, and all around made me feel supported...  in and emotional way.  A way I feel I haven't felt supported before.  Damn, I didn't realize how much I needed this!
"Thank you so much!!!  I love you so much M'gann thank you for this!" I said as I practically flung myself on her for a hug. 
Then we stood up, she squeezed my hand and said, "No problem, I am always down to gush about boys," the she winked.
"Thanks... Alright we've been away from the ball for a long long time!  People are probably getting curious," I said with a smile.  Just as we turned around to head back into the ball I saw Wally standing in the doorway we came through.
"There you guys are, I was getting worried!!! What happened?"
Just as I tried thinking up a quick response there was a long crashing sound from inside the ballroom, and soon after a lot of screams!

Sorry for not updating for so long, it's very little that I get boosts of inspiration or motivation.

This chapter was kind of a M'gann appreciation chapter. It was meant to enhance everything I wish they'd done with M'gann s character in the show, rather than turn her into and abusive girlfriend. She could have learned like she had in the beginning of season one, but they chucked that out the window to give a relationship "development".

Anyways rants aside. This chapter is also for you guys. I hope you guys can all have this kind of support in your lives, a good out let for everything you didn't know you were even holding. I hope for all of you to have an amazing friend like my fannon M'gann. Especially if you are in a situation like Robin where you have something you feel you can't tell anyone about yourself. I love you!!!! Thank you for reading!!! Please love and take care of yourselves!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
