Aquaman's Outrageous Adventure (Open to Teen Titans, Cerdian, AJ)
They had to spend a few days in Poseidonis before coming back to Titans' Tower due to Cait's wounds, but eventually she was well enough to make the trip. The physicians wanted her to wait longer, but Arthur needed to get back here and Cait didn't want to leave him around Ty for any longer than necessary. To be honest, she was surprised San Francisco was still standing after Arthur had already been there for a few days.

Once they reached Metropolis they called the Tower and Cait asked Ty to come and get them. Cait was in bad enough shape with two healing stab wounds, she didn't want to add any additional misery by flying.

Cait smiled after they appeared in the Tower. Teleporting wasn't her favorite method of travel, but it was still better than flying. The important thing was that she was home. Nothing felt better than coming home.

"Hello?" she called out.

Mrs. Curry...? Oh, that was her! Mera was so intent on what was happening to Arthur that Ruth speaking to her didn't register for a moment.

She gave the girl a curious look before nodding. "All right. Arthur, would you excuse me for a moment? Don't go anywhere until I return."

Dinah, having regained her self control, now proceeded directly to panic.

...I just laughed at Aquaman. I'm going to be sleeping with the fishies by the end of the day. ...Great. And I haven't even let Riley get to second base yet.

There has been so much noise! So Ash tip toes her way in and blinks. Her Father from this universe is apparently acting strange. She frowns and tilts her head watching the busy activity in the front area of the tower.

"I...I-Is there s-something I should worry about?"

Soon, Ruth gets Mera in the kitchen. "It's more a need to explain than show, Mrs. Curry," she admits quietly. "Pippi? The one even more enthusiastic than Iris? I think her equipment is accidentally having a... genially intoxicating effect on Mr. Curry. She doesn't mean to. But it's obviously a problem... except it seems we also have a problem when it isn't happening, because Cait really shouldn't be travelling again so soon..."

Mera shook her head in amazement. "That girl is doing it to him? I'm relieved that Arthur isn't losing his mind, but it can't continue."

"I know she shouldn't travel while she heals and I won't let it happen. Arthur, however, will be very angry when he realizes what's happening to him. I'll get him out and back to Atlantis."

Ruth nods. "Completely accidentally. She really is like a five-year-old; there's no malice involved. I hope you can calm him down when he's out of her range, as long as Cait isn't there to actively take part in the argument, or Ty to possible exacerbate it. Thank you very much, ma'am. Should you use the teleportation or something, to get out of range all at once?"

"Yes, that would be wise. Arthur will be angry, but he'll calm down and see reason without an audience to force his hand."

"Great. Thanks so much, ma'am." And they'll head back into the living room.

Cait was still speechless over her father's behavior. Right now Arthur was promising Pippi to take her for a pony ride sometime.

"I think you're right," Arthur said. "I do have a kingdom to run." He walked over and gave Cait a hug. "Take care of the kitten and yourself, Cait. I love you."

Then he went over to Ty and put a hand on his shoulder. "Take care of my daughter for me. I'm counting on you."

Well, at least she was safe until Aquaman got outside the radius of Pippi's mind-zappy-dealing-thing.

"Have a good trip, Mr. Aquaman. Sir. Your highness."

"Bye," Cait said to her father, still in shock. She really wished this was a big hallucination.

Mera caught Arthur's arm to lead him away from the group. When the girl's mood altering power was no longer effecting, she didn't want him close to Cait and the others. "I'll be in contact, sweetheart," she told Cait. "Please let me know if you need anything. I think your father and I could use some time alone while you're recuperating."

Cait nodded. "I will. Thanks, Mom."

Cait watched her parents leave and suddenly felt drained of all energy. Her stomach and shoulder hurt and all she wanted to do was crawl into her bed and pull the covers up over her head. Now that Arthur was gone, she slouched a little and leaned on a chair for support.

"Well. That was...surreal."

"Pippi," Ruth says calmly. "May I see your jewelry, please?"

Ty puts an arm around Cait. Everything else he wanted to talk to her about can wait. "Come on, love. Let's get you to bed."

Pippi nods, bouncing over to Ruth and handing over her hairpiece, studded with indigo gems. "Sure!"

"It's beautiful." Ruth couldn't figure out any way to tell if it was turned 'on' or 'off'. There were no noticeable signs. "Do you wear it around the house all the time?"

Pippi nods. "Yeah, its how I get my powers. Its easier to move around, mosquitoes don't bite me, I can talk to all the fluffy things. All the other girls used to swap their jewelry around, but I like this one."

"Keeps away mosquitoes, huh? Bet it keeps away all kinds of nasty stuff." Ruth sighs, and hands it back to her. "Thanks."

"Yeah, I suppose. No problem." she replies earnestly.

Well. Definitely interesting, that. And maybe worth questioning further. Dinah wasn't sure.

Either way, today was a day for the memory banks.
