Only in as much hot water as a lobster feast... [closed]

It's kinda hard to navigate the City level without flight, Kon finds out, and it really sucks, but there's not much he can do about it. He's dangerously low on power, and not soaking up enough from the ambient light so his powers have to be used very, very sparingly.

But eventually Kon finds Cassie, sitting on the steps of the Parthenon, looking cranky, and immediately is hit with a complicated barrages of teen emotions, mainly conflicting contriteness, annoyance that she's annoyed, and also thinking she's hot when she's annoyed. (Stupid hormones).

There are tons of logical, calm, things he could say to keep this from being an argument, that might come close to convincing her that he's not being a total idiot, but Kon is Kon and he's a teenage boy, and as such, he is not really calm or logical. (Also, he really doesn't like it when Cassie is mad at him).

So he throws up his hands dramatically, and says, perhaps a little too loudly and emphatically:

"WHY ARE YOU MAD AT ME?!"
