When, in the scraps of a Cadmus lab after freeing a Supes clone, the Team was born, not one of them was sure about the idea of making it a pack.

They didn’t really know each other then. Not well, at least.

They do now. As of now, there’s a link — a pack bond — between them.

Kaldur had not anticipated earning the trust he has, to have his team members respect him as an Alpha — even if, occasionally, some will go against his whims. Only if they think he’s being silly.

For a while, it was simply that. Everyone settled into their respective roles: Kaldur is an Alpha. Richard’s a Beta. Artemis, similarly, is a Beta. Wally’s an Omega. Megan, being a Martian, regularly switches to whatever presentation suits her at the moment. Conner’s an Alpha.

Roy, whenever he’s around, is an Alpha — a distant pack member, but still part of it.

And then they got a new Team member.

It’s strange to adjust, uncertain how something new and largely unknown will fit into their existing bonds — not that any of them dislike the new person. They’re cordial; they work well with the Team.

But… they’re not apart of the pack yet.

Megan’s been excited about it, thrilled at the prospect of another person to draw into the pack nest they haven’t told B‑Man about. It’s like watching a puppy squirm and wiggle because it wants to meet the neighborhood cat.

For now, though, it’s simply a matter of trying to bond with Guest outside of missions
