A/N: Heh, this took way too long...Ahem. Hi everyone! I realise that it's been forever since you had an update with Reddy, and I apologize! This one was my fault, not Tom's.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy, I should have the next one soon as I know mostly how it's going to go already. Thanks! -Ice


A/A/N: Yeaaaaaaaah, the wait for this one was aaaaalll my fault. Again. Sorry, guys.


Red Tornado's Journal: December 16th

The Team has been banned from the Watchtower for an indefinite amount of time, and Robin and Zatanna are to be supervised at all times. Because that is possible.

The Flash was found mysteriously tied to a chair in this room on the Watchtower, babbling about a female cat and a taser. He was unharmed physically, but has a new-found fear of all female members of the League and Team. Superman assures us that this will quickly fade. Just like Superman's own verdant coloration.

Kid Flash is trying as hard as is possible (for him) to avoid Artemis. He has run into two walls, and seven doors which he did not have enough time to open today, trying to flee from her undying wrath.

If they do not "make up" (a term Zatanna taught me, meaning "mutually agreeing to no longer perform brutal physical acts of murderous violence towards each other") soon, I will be forced to intervene.


Red Tornado's Journal: December 17th

Miss Martian took the John Smith android shopping for "Christmas presents" today. I obtained:

For Zatanna: a new spell book (from Doctor Fate, whom I encountered as Toyman was attempting to rob a toy shop).

For Robin: the parts Batman has forbidden him to buy to modify his grappling gun. I regret nothing.

For Artemis: all the seasons of "Arrow" that I could find, as it is her favorite show.

For Kid Flash: a Kid Flash t-shirt as he is his own biggest fan.

For Rocket: a fish (Miss Martian informed me that they are called "goldfish" not because they pertain in any way to the metal gold, but because they share a color with the element). It may survive, it may not.

For Aqualad: a waterproof watch, to use when he swims. Despite not being able to tell the time.

For Superboy: a foreign languages textbook for Swahili, as he loves learning languages.

The entire Team gave me a list of gifts they wanted purchased for Miss Martian, but my personal gift for her was a Christmas sweater that fit all the criteria Zatanna gave me for "appropriately hideous".

This may even end well.

I do not recall ever saying that before. Oh dear.

Kid Flash has run into five walls and seventeen doors so far in his many, many attempted escapes.


Red Tornado's Journal: December 18th

Artemis is refusing to "make up" with Kid Flash. She accuses him of stealing several of her Arachnid Arrows. Due to Robin remaining silent and leaving the scene as quickly as "Robinly" possible whenever she brings it up, I am led to conclude that at least some of the blame lies with him. Oh dear.

I wrapped the Team's presents and put them under the "Not-At-All-White-House-Tree-In-Any-Way", as the Team as come to call it, as Kid Flash informed me was tradition.

Superboy and Miss Martian attempted to bake a pie. I did not observe the sequence of events previous to it, but when I made the mistake of checking on a particularly loud thump, I found Superboy on the ground amidst cherry pie filling, butter, sugar, and for reasons as yet unknown to me, rainbow sprinkles in the shape of little ponies.

I left post haste, and did not return.

I did observe Artemis and Robin enter with a blowtorch, a mop, Drain-O, and shoe polish afterwards, however. I am not sure what happened inside, as I still have not gone back in yet, but was informed by Rocket that they were gong to "undone what done did just got done." I can only assume that they were attempting to clean.

Kid Flash has collided with eleven walls, two dozen doors, and the end of one Zeta Tube.

Red Tornado's Journal: December 19th

I am sufficiently incapable of observing Robin and Zatanna at all times to warrant Superman (who is fully recovered from his ordeal) sending "backup." I am now afforded the glittering honour of making sure Captain Marvel does not inadvertently blow something (i.e. himself) up. As if the Team was not enough. Superman does not seem to recognise that no-one can observe Chalant at all times. Not even the humans' God.

Only Kid Flash has completed his finals. I do not know why these finals did not slow occurrences of unfortunate happenings. If anything, they have elicited more than before. Perhaps a break will slow them?

Superboy has been in the gym all day. He refuses to speak to anyone, though not from lack of trying on Miss Martian's part. If she attempts again, it is possible that he will physically remove her. I do not know how the Team would react, but it could end badly. I shall convince Zatanna to keep Miss Martian away.

Kid Flash has collided with seventeen walls, thirty-one doors, the end of two Zeta Tubes, two Teammates, and myself.


Red Tornado's Journal: December 20th

The Batman has returned to League duties, though his terrifying cheeriness remains. He has said nothing about the picture of himself smiling, but all of the Flash's friction-resistant clothing was replaced with exact copies made of non-friction-resistant cloth. The Flash found this out after his first run to the cafeteria, which held every current member of the League.

This was most certainly not due to a memo released to every other League member fifteen minutes before. At all.

There was much rejoicing at the Cave after school today, both by the Team and Captain Marvel. I do not understand the latter's enthusiasm.

I still have not entered the kitchen, though Artemis assures me that it is "fine" now.

I overheard Robin on a phone call with an unknown female today in several different Earth languages. Included audio transcript, along with translation.

ROBIN: Mama, mokalma. Kami didto. (Mama, calm down. We'll be there.)

?: Nga sa tukme gayud kon unsa ang among mga amahan miingon! (Which is exactly what your father said!)

ROBIN: Unya mosalig kanato. (Then trust us.)

?: Ha! Ako mosalig Alfred. (Ha! I'll trust Alfred.)

ROBIN: Um, ug unsa ang Alfred-ingon? (Um, and what did Alfred say?)

?: Nga ikaw lang dinhi gaqas kon ikaw nagtrabaho. (That you'd be here unless you were working.)

ROBIN: Verdammt, Alfred! (Dammit, Alfred!)

?: Siehst du deine Sprache, junger Mann! (Watch your language, young man!)

ROBIN: Ja, Mutti. Ich muss jetzt gehen. Auf Wiedersehen. Ich liebe dich. (Yes mom. I have to go now. Bye. I love you.)

?: Ich liebe dich. Auf Wiedersehen. (I love you. Bye.)

I am not sure to what they were referring, but I mostly trust Robin, so I remain mostly unconcerned. Mostly.

Kid Flash has collided with 23 walls, 46 doors, the end of two-point-five Zeta Tubes, four teammates and League members, and myself – twice. He has also run into the pool.


Red Tornado's Journal: December 21st

The Flash has taken a vacation to an undisclosed location for an undetermined amount of time. Before he left, he informed Kid Flash that Kid Flash "hastobethebigguythisyear,'kay? 'Kay,thanksbye". This news caused Kid Flash to pass out. Though that could also have been due to Artemis "accidentally" missing the target she had been practising with, and hitting him with a tranquillizer arrow.

Batman is slowly returning to himself, though Green Arrow claims to have heard him humming "Winter Wonderland" in the showers. Batman claims that it was the Superman, on account that he "does not need to shower. Ever." This declaration led to Wonder Woman giving the Batman a lecture on personal hygiene.

Kid Flash managed to not add to his total of things he has run into today. This could partially be because he was unconscious for a large portion of the day.


Red Tornado's Journal: December 22nd

The Team found out what happened to Artemis' missing Arachnid Arrows this morning. Someone managed to obtain four metric tons of mistletoe, and overnight used the cables from the Arachnid Arrows to attach it to the ceilings of the Cave. There is not a single centimetre untouched by the plant anywhere. That includes storage closets, bedrooms, and the training room. All Team members have been carefully avoiding members of the opposite sex, excepting Robin. He is simply swaggering around proudly.

Hmm, I wonder who could be behind all this.

Artemis and Kid Flash have agreed to call a truce for the next week. Perhaps there will be peace around the Cave?

Most likely not. Especially with Captain Marvel still in residence.
