Author's Note: For jsa_allstars Family Challenge. Unbetaed, so point and I shall correct.



Alan looked around the room full of heroes, seeing everyone talking and laughing and happy, as they so rarely were. A JSA/JLA get together was always able to that, though, mentors and students and the students becoming mentors to the next generation... Alan sighed, sparing a thought for those who had been lost, who would never get to teach again. But then Todd and Jennie walked past him, smiling and talking, and Alan could only feel joy.

There were family among family here, but they were all one big family, even those who claimed that they were loners, only ever worked alone. Alan's smile turned amused as he saw Bruce and Clark standing close together, heads bowed into one another as they talked, saw the glances in their direction from the other heroes and idly wondered how much money was in the pool now.

He saw Ted and Karen arguing, the sight a familiar one, saw Diana and Courtney talking, and smiled. Yes, they might not be related by blood, but they were a family nonetheless. One he was very proud to be a member of.

Alan smiled again and joined his children.

Awwwww!! Bruce and Clark being oblivious to their attraction while everyone else waits for them to catch up is one of those things I can never get enough of! And Alan having Todd and Jennie back makes me so happy!! Jennie must be back, I command it! (is she...?)

I'm super sleepy, and this made me really happy! thank you for sharing, Star :)

*grins* I couldn't resist putting the Bruce/Clark in there! Silly boys! ;)

La la la, I haven't read it, so she's still alive!!! La la la!!!!! But... I don't think she's coming back in canon. *goes back to the obliviousness* Todd!! I've recently become obsessed with him! He's so pretty as Obsidian, and eeeee!!! His scenes with Damon!!! *flails* So adorable. For some reason Todd and Bruce have started hanging out in my head. Very odd.

*hugs sleepy Mina* Get some sleep, dear! :) I'm really glad this could help cheer you up! *glomps*

This line actually got me a little choked up. I love this part of his character; with insights like these, it's easy to see why people feel such admiration for Alan.
