Tadashi glances around theatrically to make sure no one's listening in, then leans in to tell his story.
"Not too long after you went home, I hit the lab early one morning, only to hear Brainiac 5 laughing so hard I thought he might actually hurt himself. I mean, he is howling. So I go and take a look to see if he's okay, and he's just collapsed into a chair while Invisible Kid is standing there, bright red in the face and sputtering incoherently.
"I don't know exactly what was said, but I worked out from the conversation after that Invisible Kid had been freaking out about how to help co-parent Brainy's kid and had finally gotten his head together so that he was emotionally prepared to go all-in...except he'd never asked Brainy if he wanted his help co-parenting. He'd just assumed he was going to be helping out and had no idea how to react to Brainy laughing at him."
Tadashi shook his head. "It was pretty cute. I don't know how it shook out, exactly, since it occurred to me that spying on a guy who could turn invisible was probably a bad life choice, but I did see Invisible Kid towing Brainy's kid around a few times after that."
