FWOOSH!
That was the sound that echoed around the streets as Kid Flash ground to a halt, kicking up a small cloud of dust as he came to a stop. In his hand was a rather large BLT sandwhich, and he was prepared to have a leisurely stroll down the streets of Jump while he devoured it. After all, he'd been on the 'clock' since early morning, and he'd only had 4 snack breaks! Not counting breakfast, of course. At this rate, he was going to starve.
He got a couple of looks, but by now he'd become a familiar face in Jump, so people didn't take more notice of him than necessary. Taking a big bite out of his sandwhich, he idly scratched the back of his head as he shifted his weight back and forth between the balls of his feet. Much as he loved this snack break, he was still antsy to finish it and get back to his patrol.
For now, though? He was going to enjoy his sandwhich.

Terra scanned the document in her hand and tried to weave through the crowd at the same time, a rather dangerous combination. The papers were mostly written in boring legal jib-jab, but she had a handle on the general idea. And as soon as she signed them and went through the emancipation process, she'd be free. Being a "ward of the state" was both annoying and embarrassing, but she hadn't had much choice after Slade screwed her over and deleted her social security number, birth records, and any trace that she'd ever existed.
"Excuse me, sorry," Terra mumbled, walking through the crowd and mechanically muttering her apologies to everyone.
She finally reached a spot where the crowd seemed to have dispersed somewhat and glanced up. Her blue eyes widened at the person not five feet in front of her, and before Terra could help it her mouth dropped open. Shit. Kid Flash, yet another member of the Teen Titans, as evidenced by the communicator clipped onto his costume. Would her bad luck never end? She backed up slowly, looking for a break in the crowd that she could dart through and let her blond hair fall over one eye. Hopefully he wouldn't recognize her-
"Watch it!" Terra snapped, her jostled toward Kid Flash by someone who was in a hurry, "I'm walkin' here!"

What was this? His sandwich was already half gone? He'd found himself floating away on a different branching of thoughts, and had lost track of his lunch. Now he frowned, firmly deciding that this sandwich would last longer than it should. This was supposed to be a break period, after all.
A shock of blonde hair caught his attention, though not particularly through looks; Wally didn't exactly know what kind of guy he was, but he was certainly not the kind that chased after 'blonde bombshells'. Redheads were more his type. No, his attention was garnered because she was yelling. He shuffled closer to the sidewalk, glancing around at the people gathered in a circle 'round him. "Come on guys, just like school; keep to the right! Obstruction of transportation gets you a slap on the wrist, you know!"
Bite. Chew, chew, chew. Did he know this girl? Something tugged in the back of his mind, but the lightbulb didn't light. It fizzled and he was left in the dark, speculating. As fickle as it was, he found most people looked alike at the pace he lived; was he just noticing similarities? He could ask, but that would be too braze- wait, no, he would ask, but he had a mouthful of bread and meat. Chew, chew, swallow. He lifted his leg away from an overzealous dog who thought he smelled interesting.
"As if you guys don't see enough spandex on the Boy Wonder, you don't need to oggle me..."
