Who are you?

The Hermes Ballroom is packed with congoers, some in street clothes, but most in spandex, silk, leather, or the more humble cotton, plastic, and vinyl, in a riot of colors. There are Supermen, Wonder Women, Wonder Girls, Superboys, but the predominant colors are red and yellow, for Flash and Kid Flash.

Be good to get you back in action.

Mary looks surprised, fists coming up to rub at her face at the touch, as though it tickled. Then she refocuses on Ted, and gives him a gummy grin. Dick grins at her, ruffling her dark hair with his free hand.

Goofy kid. You like Uncle Ted, huh?

"It'll be good to be back in action. Give me something to look forward to.."

He chuckles. "She's not old enough to figure out that I'm uncool yet."

"Hey, who says you're uncool?" demands Babs with a wicked grin. "Point me at 'em. I'll roll over their toes."

"That's a lot of toes, you'd be busy for a while. Seriously, I have no illusions that the Blue Beetle is as popular a hero as, say, Superman."

"Or Aquaman."

A little boy wanders by and stares worshipfully up at the costumed Ted. "Wow, it's the Green Lantern!"

A mischievous grin spreads across his features, which he then conceals as he looks down at the boy.

"That's right! But don't tell anybody, okay?"

The little boy shakes his head solemnly. "I promise!" He then hugs Ted's leg. "I love you, Green Lantern!"

He chuckles and kneels down, ruffling the kid's hair. "Remember, study science in school. Being a superhero takes a lot of special equipment."

Might as well work in a positive message.

"Like a power ring? Okay!" He finally releases Ted's leg. "Bye, Mr. Green Lantern!"

Babs finally releases her smile once the boy has gone.
