The outnumbered new team members to what is- ostensibly- the League mill about somewhat awkwardly as the "grownups" hash out the logistics. Spidey hangs from the ceiling tripping out a little that he's looking at the Earth from space "upside-down" whatever that means in space (not his first rodeo, but not something that's gotten old yet). Ever outgoing, Wally zips up beside the dangling Spider to make friends as Spidey seemed to be the most chatty and least intimidating of the new bunch. Spider-Man does not disappoint by having a faster mouth than the Fastest Man Alive...
Spidey: Red and yellow.
Flash: Red and blue.
Spidey: Hey... it's a classic. [He jerks a thumb at Superman, Wally nods and smiles.]
Flash: Sure, red and blue jump right to mind when thinking about spiders.
Spidey: Sure, just like "being flashed" can only mean defeat by a speedster.
Flash: Whoa there, let's not get too racy!
Spidey: Bad puns are my thing! Heh, sorry about that... it's the name "Flash", I had a whole thing with this guy in high school...
Flash: Say no more, I didn't even pick the name... besides, we've got the red in common... I'm partial to it, after all, they call me the "Scarlet Speedster".
Spidey: No kidding?! I had a clone who called himself the "Scarlet Spider"!
Flash: Geez, clones! I never had one but I can relate... I've had an evil twin-
Spidey: -from another dimension! Tell me about it! OMG, have you ever had to fight an evil symbiote suit?
Flash: A supernaturally possessed super costume called The Suit, yeah!
Spidey: Dude...
Flash: Dude. [A long thoughtful pause] Have you ever...
Spidey:...had a old guy pop up with powers like yours and insist that your powers didn't come from science but magic?
Flash:Whoa. How about this... a professional colleague gets turned into an warped and evil version of you through accidental contact with something of yours and makes your life hell...
Spidey: ...because he knows your secret identity and can counter some of your powers with his and is otherwise superior in every way?
Flash: Okay, I can't believe this. ... I had the public knowledge of my secret identity wiped from reality by a supernatural being.
Spidey: After I made my secret identity public I had it wiped from reality by the Sorcerer Supreme.
Flash:I made a deal with the devil regarding my love for my TV personality significant other.
Spidey:I... might have made a deal with the devil regarding my love for my model / actress significant other.
Flash:My best civilian friend is...
Spidey: ...one of my rogues turned good.
Flash: I had an uncle who was a father to me and whose death made me the man I am today...
Spidey: I'm freaking out here.
Flash: I don't really know you but...
Spidey:BFFs?
Flash: That... or we're going to have to revisit the whole evil twin from another dimension thing again....
