"You are amazing, you know that?" the voice of Argent began to Robin, holding him firm in an energy construct. Robin only wore a blank expression, not saying a word.
"Nothing to say? Not even an 'I'm sorry?'
"I wish I was wearing yellow," was all Robin replied to, causing Argent to laugh.
"That doesn't work on me. But this will work on you."
The construct around Robin vanished, causing him to fall for only a brief second as he landed in Argent's hand. Above him stood another construct, a solid light wall that lowered itself onto her hand, laying him down flat, but visible.
"There's, that's better. Now I can see you. So what's wrong Robin, why don't you want to obey us?"
"I'm not going to submit to anyone," was all Robin replied with. He remembered the stories of the Green Lantern his mentor shared with him. A man with the power to literally create anything, but the imagination of a lazy network executive, squandering his power on mundane things like energy tennis rackets and simple lasers. Rather than produce anything nearly that mundane, Argent instead showed him of all things, a light show, with stick figure representations of the girls and a little bug which was supposed to be him, presumably to accent her point.
"You don't have any reason to be stubborn," Argent began, the drawing showing the bug was a cutsey angry face on it. "Fact is, your ours for the next three days, and we can make this VERY painful for you if you keep being a jerk for no reason!" The next picture was of the girls stomping the bug repeatedly. "But if you're nice," Argent continued, "we can make the next couple of days one you won't forget, with good reason," accentuating her words with random pictures, all ranging from Starfire kissing the bug to lewd poses from the other girls
"She's been practicing since we last saw her," Starfire commented, to which the other girls nodded in approval.
"What are you going to do to me then?" Robin asked.
"I was hoping you'd ask," she replied, removing the construct that held him down, allowing the Boy Wonder to stand in Argent's palm.
