Wally's different than the rest of the team in that regard. They all want to go on and forge their own identities. Even their code names symbolize a certain degree of independence from their mentors. There's Aqualad, but he won't be Aquaman. That title will likely be passed onto the King's son. Wally on the other hand, -wants- to be The Flash. He has his doubts and insecurities about it, but he wants it all the same.

By the time Artemis arrives, he's already got one batch in the oven and he's helping himself to a huge roll of cookie dough. He takes a massive bite out of it and swallows it.

"You know, I think cookie dough tastes even better than the cookies themselves."

Takes another bite, almost demolishing half of the roll in the process, and then sets it down. He was sitting on the kitchen counter, but now he pushes himself off of it and moves over to her.

"The first batch is the experimental batch. I wanted to try it out without any additional variables at work. The second batch is going to be the controlled batch. We'll work on it together like I did with M'gann, and then compare the two when I'm done."

Gestures towards the ingredients they'll need, and there's some additional flour and frosting as well.

"I thought we could make some extra stuff too. Maybe some brownies or cake, might as well go all out if you're hungry, right?"
