You Would Think (DC UNIVERSE)

The voices started getting louder and a minute later Conner stalked though growling "Fuck you Cassie! Fuck off and let me alone! We're done! I'm leaving!"

"No. This is not over, Kent." Cassie was right behind him. "I'm sick of your attitude towards me. You take everything personal and as an insult. I can't say a single god damn thing without you jumping down my throat and crying about it."

Tim crossed his arms as he watched them.

"You jump my fucking shit for everything and expect me to read your damn mind! Dating you was a mistake! I shouldn't have tried dating to begin with!" Conner snarled. "I'm done fighting with you! I'm done trying to defend myself! I am fucking done trying to bend over backwards and fly in circles for you!"

Conner whirled around. "I admit I make mistakes! I've apologized for every damn mistake you've accused me of and then some and I can't take it anymore! I'm fucking done, Cassie!"

Tim set his computer aside, crossing his arms as he stood. "Both of you." He kept his tone and expression neutral. "Briefing room. Now." He was silent as he left the room. Bart let out a low whistle as he turned around after pausing his game. "You two are in trouble."

Conner made a noise of frustration. "God fucking-Really?" he demanded, whirling on Tim. "You're getting involved now? Where the fuck where you last week when I got my ass reamed for being unavailable on the farm rather than here to wait on Cassie fucking hand and foot?"

Tim stopped, turning back to the other two. "Yes, I am getting involved now. Nightwing wouldn't do it, so I will. You're both becoming a bother and a security risk. You should have kept your petty nonsense in your own rooms. Do not back talk me, Superboy. Briefing room. Now."

Conner growled and stomped off towards the briefing room.

Cassie was silent as he did the same. Tim had arrived first. He was seated at the briefing table, expression still neutral. He crossed his arms when his teammates joined him. "Sit."

Conner crossed his arms. "I'd rather stand" he stated stiffly.

"I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. Sit."

"With how wound up I am, that's probably a bad idea" Conner replied. "When I'm standing its easier to keep my TTK in check, and none of my visions act up if I'm concentrating on controlling that. I am literally not staying standing to piss you off, I'm staying standing to keep myself in control of my powers."

Tim stared at him, frowning. He was silent for close to ten minutes before letting out a small huff. "Is there a reason why you two couldn't argue in private?"

"We were arguing in private." Conner replied. "Until I tried to break it off and leave before my temper got the better of me" He gave Cassie a pointed look.

Tim held a hand up before Cassie could speak. "I heard you. All the way in the common room. Before you entered the hallway. Everyone can hear you two every time you argue. Nightwing keeps tiptoeing around the issue. I won't tolerate it any longer. You two are becoming a liability. And your constant bickering is an annoyance. Keep your personal matters to yourselves and out of the tower."

"Fine." Conner replied evenly. "Keep our issues to ourselves, no infighting at the tower. Personal is personal. Don't date inside the team. Got it."

Cassie nodded, still not saying a word.
Tim glared at both of them. "You're on suspension for the next week."

"Great" Conner replied. "We about done?"

"No, we're not. Your attitude has to go, Superboy. I will not tolerate insubordination."

"You're not the leader of the Titans, Robin" Conner pointed out. "And I think my attitude is a little justified right now. Why don't you make the request to the guy actually in charge and I'll fucking think about it"

Tim snarled at him. "I am the team leader. Nightwing is a figurehead. All leaderships responsibilities and duties have officially been passed to me. Weather you or half of this team for that matter like it or not, RED Robin," He put emphasis on Red as he stared at Conner," I am the leader of the Teen Titans now. Nightwing was going to inform the rest of you after this mission. Bludhaven needs all of his attention and he decided to have me step up. So in short Superboy, I am the guy in charge."

"Congratu-fucking-lations." Conner replied. "Do you want a fucking cookie? I've had enough lecturing today to last a fucking month and I have shit to do"

Tim crossed his arms and scowled. "I'm sick of you, your foul mouth, and your attitude Superboy. I'm not Nightwing and I'm not fooled by you. You know exactly what you're doing and how unacceptable it is. I'm tired of everyone giving you a free pass for the shitty things you do. You try to use your supposed lack of knowledge and biological age as a free pass for your behavior and that's ending now. Cassandra, go. We will talk later."

Cassie was silent as she quickly left the room.

"Great, glad we had this talk." Conner stated, turning to go. "I'll stay the fuck out of your way"

"We're not done, Superboy. You are not going anywhere."

Conner let out a noise of frustration.
