The heroes continue to arrive and partake in the Thanksgiving feast, with varying degrees of relief that the "alien invasion" was merely a ruse.

Green Arrow comes up behind him.

How long you been running on green-juice, kid?

Travis doesn't look back, but he does smile. "Works out to two weeks, give or take."

Ollie pats him on the back.

You'll probably get another two helpings into you.

Don't make a habit of it. I hate to see a good Lantern self-destruct.

He can't help but smile. He was expecting more of a lecture, but now he can see why Tara speaks so highly of Ollie.
"Long as losing that many kids doesn't become a habit, I don't plan on it. The last funeral was this morning... and I promised Tara that once dinner was done, she could confine me to quarters."

"Damn right I'm confining you to quarters," she quips. "And if your a real good boy I'll keep you awake for some of it."

More quietly. "I have some business beforehand, but I will be joining you, 'kay?"

He smiles, reaching out a hand to Tara. Pretty clear he has his radar turned off, and is just going by sounds, smells and touch. "No problem, besides, I'm only on seconds. I think I owe my body a couple more helpings before I disappear."

Quick kiss. "I'm holding you to that and more."

He returns the kiss and nods. "No problem. I'm looking forward to sleeping for about a week."
