Summary: Part of the Drabble Series. A little moment between Jinx and one of the students from her school for meta-human children.
I don't own Teen Titans and while I would have liked to have more development between Kid Flash and Jinx, I'm glad they're technically a canon couple and even got to kiss in the comics! 8D
Please forgive any mistakes, both character-wise and grammatically-wise. I don't have time to re-read or edit things.

Jinx flipped in
the air, avoiding the shots of ice and fire aimed at her. She landed on the
ground, only to be assaulted by the ground troops. A boy with four arms tried
to grab her, but she easily knocked the wind out of him by pushing him onto the
ground. The next to attack were two kids taught in the art of assassination,
their weapons held high as they aimed for her vital spots.
Her arms blocked
the attacks and she grabbed the two kids by the collar, spun and then threw
them into the padded walls of the large room. There were grunts of pain, but
more assailants came after her.
She smiled at
their tenacity before her eyes began to glow a sharp pink, the air rippling
before all the occupants in the room were blasted with a wave of pink energy.
Everyone slammed into the walls and groans of pain filled the room.
“No fair, you used
your powers,” the four armed boy complained, sitting up from the ground. One of
the arms growing out of his back began to rub the back of his sore head.
“Life isn’t fair,
Quad,” Jinx said lightly, her eyes making note to make sure no one was
seriously injured. All in all, it just looked like a few scrapes and bruises. “Besides,
it was never agreed that I wouldn’t use my powers.”
“I thought it was
an unspoken one,” one of the child assassins grumbled, rubbing her forehead. The
other assassin perked up in delight.
“Wait, does this
mean we’re getting better since you needed to use your powers?”
Jinx arched an
eyebrow. “Unfortunately, dear, you are still severely lacking in that
department. My use of powers was a reminder as to how inferior you all are
right now.”
“Just you wait!
We’ll get you one day!” another kid shouted from the ground, still recovering
from hitting the wall. He had his finger pointed to the sky before his arm
flopped back onto the ground, completely tired.
Jinx chuckled and
shook her head, the door to the training room opening as one by one they began
to shuffle out. She paused when she felt someone lingering behind in the room,
shuffling their feet on the ground. Turning around, she saw Quad looking at her
hesitantly with his big green eyes.
“What’s up,
honey?” she asked the twelve year old.
Realizing he had
her attention, he looked at the ground. “It’s nothing...”
“If it was
nothing, would you still be in here with me?” Jinx inquired, raising a
nonexistent eyebrow with one hand on her hip. Quad’s face flushed and the
fidgeting grew worse. “Is everything alright? The other kids treating you
okay?”
“No, no, it’s
great!” he rushed shyly, having been brought to Jinx’s school for meta-humans
two years ago.
He had been an
abandoned child, abused and forced to fight in the children’s division of the
underground meta-human fight ring. Other than his two extra arms, Quad
possessed no other abilities, making him an easy target for bullying and abuse.
This made him have a shy, introvert personality... though many wouldn’t believe
her since he was so aggressive when he had first arrived at the school. Jinx
had personally dealt with him to make sure he wasn’t overcome by his
confrontational instinct to protect himself.
And now here they
were, two years later, with him being cute as a button with his gentle
personality.
“I was just....
just wondering...” he fumbled and Jinx waited patiently, knowing he needed a
minute or two to gather his courage. “Can I... Can I call you mom?”
The request took
her by surprise and there was a good healthy seconds of silence when Jinx
snapped out of it. She noticed that Quad’s face had gotten even redder and, if
anything, he was close to tears by what he figured would be rejection. Her pink
eyes softened and she walked over to him, wrapping her arms around him and
pulling him in for a hug.
“Of course you
can,” she said gently, running a hand through his brown hair.
He tensed in her
arms before all four of his arms immediately latched onto her. She chuckled at
how it felt like a koala was clinging to her, tears soaking the front of her
dress. Unconsciously she began to hum to him, letting him cry out his sorrow
and happiness. Meanwhile, she dryly considered the possibility of other kids
calling her mom as well. A few remembered their parents, but many of them had
equally been abandoned and abused...
Wait until Wally
heard about this.
