"Ethan, I need a list of superhero pairs," Ivy requested as they both flopped on the living room couches, messing around on their phones after school.
"Why?"
"I'm going to a costume dance and that's the theme."
He sat up, eyes flashing in excitement. "There are so many good ones! Brown Recluse and Eagle-Eye, Megaman and Ultra Woman, the spider people, Lightning and Badger! Want to see my comics? I can show you some more!"
Ethan continued a running list of comic book power couples in his head as he sprinted up the stairs. '…Catman and Sparrow, Poison Oak and Ace, Zatara and Star Man, Galactaca and…who matches up with Galactaca again? Eh, it'll come to me.'
He slapped a fat stack of comic books on the side table next to the couch. "Check these out and see if any strike your fancy. Who are you going with, anyway?"
"Some guy from school," Ivy said as she absently flicked through a comic book. "I've vaguely known him since 6th grade but we only recently started talking."
