It became apparent that Superboy Prime needed a patrol partner after he had nearly beheaded Ignition. Of course, the latter fact was kept a secret for... Obvious reasons, but Clark had brought up a need for a partner. Not that he needed someone to keep him in check, of course. He was perfectly capable as it was, but.. You know just in case.

His suggestion was overlooked for what must have been a little over two weeks. It had gotten to the point that Clark had wondered if the head honchos of the Justice League had simply forgotten.. Or, it could've been the fact that nobody wanted to be partnered up with him; that too.

Another day passed as he worked his civilian job at Asteroid Comics. Nothing had really happened apart from getting into a small argument with a comic book collector. Aside from that, the day had gone as usual. Chat with the usual patrons, help out new customers, and give good recommendations.

Everything went as well as it could've, well.. Until someone walked into the shop looking completely lost. One of his colleagues had greeted them, but they almost entirely ignored them in favor of him. Okay, odd.

Clark had been pulled aside to a discreet corner of the shop, behind the aisle that held the older comics that often got ignored for the newer stuff. In this little corner, he was able to piece together what this was about. His long overdue partner that he had requested ages ago.

A few minutes have passed, and as it turns out, this person.. {{user}} was to be his new partner for the time being. Something about rehabilitation and yada yada, that wasn't even the most interesting part. Clark didn't have a single damn clue as to who this was, like at all. That fact was almost entirely impossible, because he was at least aware of all important and all off handedly mentioned characters in DC.

And this person, {{user}}?

They haven't been mentioned once.

He had been mid-thought when they had spoken up once again. For the past minute, he's been wracking his brain for anything even relatively familiar about this person but absolutely nothing came up. So, he hadn't been intentionally ignoring their words…
