Relationship status.....
Daphne felt like she'd missed out on part of the conversation. Bex and Viktor were talking about something before Kassy and her arrived, leaving the other girls clueless. Maybe it was Bex being abrasive along with Viktor being his usual stoic self, but seeing them together wasn't funny anymore. It left her with this this sinking feeling in her stomach.

Viktor said he was single. Daphne kind of expected that would be his answer. It would take a particular kind of girl to stand up to a guy like that. On the other hand maybe he was different as a boyfriend, she couldn't imagine it though, but maybe.

Honestly Daphne really didn't feel like sharing her relationship status, not that there was anything to share. Bex just made her painfully aware of that fact. She didn't mind being single, or at least she thought she didn't. Until someone pointed it out. Daphne tried not to compare herself to the blonde girl, but she didn't want to come across as plain as she felt. So she panicked and.....lied.

"I have a boyfriend."
She squeezed the stuffed panda a little tighter, immediately regretting her words.

Daphne smiled. It was nice to see Kassy enjoyed the fair as much as she did. She looked into Kassy's eyes which were now green. That really was a neat trick she did. That subtle use of her illusions impressed Daphne. She briefly wondered if it would work on her too. It could be fun to change up her eye color for a day. Hers were just a boring brown.

She giggled at Kassy's story on how she won Zach´s unicorn. That was sweet of her to get him something. Daphne looked at the blue unicorn, thinking back on all the stuffed animals her dad and brother got for her over the years. Even though she was older now, they never really lost their appeal. Seeing them made her just as happy as when she was a little kid. She could always win herself one. Try her hand at the games that didn´t require as much dexterity.

"I'm glad you're having a good time"
"You know, that man just didn't expect you to be that good, they make the most money off of people who lose"

Daphne shrugged. If Kassy wanted to go back there wasn't a whole lot he could do about it. There were a bunch of rides Daphne knew Kassy would probably like. The rollercoasters kind of made you feel like you were underwater, flying weightless through the air. There were two corndogs in each hand of her hands. Daphne tried to adjust her grip, but was scared that would make her drop them. She dropped enough food today and she promised these to Bex.

She looked over at Kassy, her arms were stacked with food too. She could ask for a basket at the stall. A second stop at the food stall and she was set. There problem solved.
"Let's go and take these to Bex and the others, we can go on some rides after lunch if you want"

They walked over to Bex and Viktor who were standing beside the High striker. Bex was carrying a huge pink stuffed panda. The combination of her mildly sour expression with the stuffed animal made Daphne laugh and she bit her lip. She reached out with a basket of two corndogs, trying to keep a straight face.
"I got you two, not sure how many you wanted, there's more."
"But you'll have to share them with....Viktor" The identity of sexy Eeyore was confirmed to be Viktor. Daphne could sort of see the resemblance and again had to keep from laughing.

Daphne gestured to the pink panda. She looked behind Bex to see if there was another one. It looked like they won the only one. Too bad, it was really cute.
"I can hold onto it if you want to eat"

She turned to Viktor and handed him the second basket of corndogs.
"I didn't know if you wanted some too, so I got these just in case."

Daphne had sniffed her way to the closest food truck, selling a whole bunch of fried stuff, including funnel cakes. She ordered the smaller sized one and after a couple of minutes it was ready. The toppings ranged from chocolate sauce, to fruits, to marshmallows, to caramel but Daphne just wanted some powdered sugar. Keeping things classy. She was holding her precious cake in one hand and her phone in the other, checking her messages. A text from Bex popped up.
"Sure. Sexy Eeyore is swinging around his dick for a prize. And now I want corndogs. See U."

Daphne's brown eyes went wide and she let go of her phone like it was on fire. She tried to catch it before it hit the ground, making her juggle awkwardly with the funnel cake and the arguably more expensive piece of electronics. She managed to save her phone from certain doom and a definite shattered screen. The food she just ordered wasn't as lucky. It landed with a sad plop onto the ground.

"Ah that's such a shame, do you want me to make you a new one? It's on the house no worries."
She didn't have much time to recover from her embarrassing reaction to a simple text from Bex. The lady who worked in the food truck was nice enough to give her a new one. Daphne could feel her face burning. She forced herself to turn around.
"Oh that's really not necessary, it was my fault, I'm just so clumsy sometimes and always looking on my phone when I should look..."
Daphne rambled on and the lady interrupted her.
"Are you okay dear? You're looking a little green, maybe you should get out of the sun for a bit, come stand here under the shade."

The teen heroine caught on to what was happening and put her hands on her cheeks.
"Ah...it's uhm...my allergies. Thanks for the funnel cake, I don't have to have a new one"

Daphne quickly rushed away from the food truck found a quiet corner next to an out of use whac-a-mole game. She took a deep breath.
That was a disaster...
She looked down at the phone in her hand and smiled at her ridiculous behavior. Get a grip on yourself Daphne.
She got out the fan she kept in her purse and waved it in front of her face. While she cooled off she tried to make sense of the text that Bex sent her.
Who was sexy Eeyore?
Probably a nickname for one of the boys, but who? Definitely not Ja, he was to cheery to be compared to Eeyore. Daphne was trying to make sense of it when she spotted Kassy walking past, looking a little lost.

Daphne had an idea. What if she brought lunch for Kassy, Bex and...sexy..Eeyore..
Her lunch met an untimely end and she was still kind of hungry. Bex wanted a corndog and she could bring Kassy too. She spotted fish and chips were also on the menu and she knew Kassy liked fish.
"Hi Kassy!" Daphne called out to the Atlantean heroine. She walked up to Kassy with a smile and proposed her lunch plans. Daphne was too embarrassed to return to the same food truck. She spotted a different one selling mostly the same things. They went over there and Daphne ordered four corndogs(just in case one wouldn't be enough), a funnel cake and Kassy made her own order. She texted Bex to pick a spot to meet up and she would bring lunch.
"How do you like the fair?" Daphne asked, waiting with Kassy next to the food truck.

Daphne breathed in the sweet smell of cotton candy. She looked around and excitement filled her stomach with butterflies. There were a couple of staples she definitely wanted to visit. Haly´s circus fair was close to her heart, it used to be an annual family tradition. When she was little her dad took her to the fair every day after school. It was a week full of fun rides, eating way too many sweets and adding more stuffed animals to her impressive collection. Careless quality time with her dad. The nostalgia was bittersweet. Any amount of time they spent together in the present was solely for the purpose of his research.

She sighed. This really wasn´t the place to be gloomy. She was at a fair on a nice summer day, dressed up nice and with a group of mostly nice people. Making new memories was her goal today, so she stopped pouting and put on a smile. Her stomach rumbled. She frowned and held her hand against her belly, hoping that would stop the sound. It was lunchtime and lucky for her funnel cakes were on the menu today.

I wonder what the rest of the Team is up to...

Daphne got out her phone and opened up the group chat. She added Maya and Bex just before they left for Gotham. It was a small gesture to show they were welcome on the Team, to include them. Her finger hovered over Maya and Bex, hesitating if and who she should text. Daphne ultimately decided to text Bex. It was very likely she would get a hard no, but that was okay. She opened up a new chat and started typing.
"Hi Bex
It's me Daphne, I wanted to ask if you wanted to get lunch together?" Realizing she sounded as unsure of herself over text as she did in person she deleted the question mark.

The teen girl waited for her new team mate to text back. While she was waiting she looked up some shade. If she wasn't in her verdant form the sun scorched her just as much as anyone. She reapplied some of her perfume. It was honestly not of much use, the florals getting lost in the sugary smells around her. It was more out of habit than anything.

The sounds of excited screams and the smell of fried pastries were drawing in the early birds to Haly’s Circus fair. There was something for everyone. The easygoing crowd could visit attractions such as the hall of mirrors for some laughs. Competitive fair goers could test their skills and luck in the many games to include the shooting gallery, taking their pick from a huge selection of stuffed animals.

The fair was roughly divided into two areas. One with rides including staples like the ferris wheel, a haunted house, merry go around, tilt-a-whirl and animal rides.
The second area included a selection of games like, the dunk tank, basketball shooting, among other games that tested one's dexterity.

Sprinkled throughout the grounds were food stands selling everything from pretzels and hotdogs to funnel cakes and cotton candy in rainbow colors. There was even a fortune teller tucked away into some back corner.

Both areas conveniently lead to the circus tent which was set up at the centre back. Circus workers were setting up the inside of the tent to not only prepare for the following night's shows but the fireworks that would be used to finish next evening’s circus show with a bang.

Daphne was left with a vivid green flush on her face after Bex retreated.
"That went better than I expected"

She watched Bex approach the rest of the Team. The girl definitely had a strong personality and she wasn't the only one. There were going to some heated arguments in the future, that much was sure. Literal heat this time, she watched the montage of Bex, her brows furrowing together. Best stay out of her hair when she's angry. Daphne watched the rest of the team, most of them were talking to each other. Zach was being heavily questioned and asked for advice, being the leader this time around.

Still no word on Hex and Gold Rush. Daphne listened to Batman talking to Talon. She could understand where he was coming from. It seemed like their former team mates were so easily replaced. Outright stating they didn't trust Bex and Maya wasn't going to help the situation. Daphne was going to listen to Batman and be the friendly face of the Team. She approached Maya and thought of a funny way to open the conversation.

"I would actually survive if you missed a throw" Daphne laughed. If knives didn't still make her squeamish she would have volunteered. For now though she could wait to end up as a salad.
"Hi welcome to the Team, I'm Daphne but on missions I go by Nymph"

"Batman. Has Zatana found anything new about Hex? Or Gold Rush? We've been left in the dark for days now. And is it really wise for us to go into the field already with these two? We don't know what they can do."

Batman narrowed his eyes at Talon. Given Talon's background Batman attempted some leniency when dealing with hotheaded youth. This wasn't one of those times.
"As said previously Hex and Gold Rush are League business, when we know something so will the Team"
He turned towards the mission briefing screens, seemingly ignoring Talon's stab at the new recruits. He touched the interactive interface and pulled up the profiles of Demonslayer and She-devil. The computerized voice of the Zeta Tubes started to narrate the capabilities of both team members. With the montages playing in the background Batman returned his attention to Talon and the rest of the team. He was sure there existed doubt between them. Fact of the matter was, they were down two recruits, each mission proved more challenging than the next. Piece by piece they were figuring out what exactly their unidentified enemy was planning. They needed all the help they could get.

"Both recruits have been through the same selection process as each of you" He let that sink in for a few minutes.
"You will treat them as members of this Team" It wasn't a question, his tone made that clear.

The montages behind Batman stopped playing and transitioned into the earlier images of Haly's circus.
"We want you to get to the circus grounds ahead of the performances, get to know the area and employees."
"There is a fair happening at the same time, use that to your advantage and remain inconspicuous."

The circus and the Team's performance wouldn't be until the evening. The Team would have most of the afternoon to enjoy themselves at the fair, something Batman didn't explicitly state was the purpose, but the ample amount of leisure time was odd. Haly's circus was passing through Gotham and would set up just outside of the city. The Team would have to take the Zeta Tube and make their way to the location by subway or taxi. The jeep was still out of use due to the antics of Viktor and Alisa.
