[ Thankfully, Ina's gotten a bit more used to things since her arrival. Used enough to not hold the omnicom right up to her face and yell into it, at least. She...almost seems to have an idea of how to point the thing and get a decent picture, in fact.

Almost.

So she's got it far enough back to capture a bit of the place behind her, which is definitely not Legion World. Some might recognize it as the Hall of Justice museum, if they've been there; it seems she's decided to take a trip down to Earth for the day. ]

I have a request. It's my understanding that some of you are more...technologically inclined.

[ Polite understatement. ]

I had thought it would be helpful to learn more of the heroes who inspired the Legion, since I have little idea what to expect - and I believe I've found a worthy example to follow, in the one they called Green Arrow.

[ She turns her omnicom to point the camera at a nearby display of a variety of arrows, with holographic footage playing in the background that shows them in action. Smoke arrows that provide a haze to aid in escape or getting a quick hit in that the enemy can't anticipate! Net arrows that explode into a net on impact, entangling the target and keeping them from escaping! Boxing glove arrows that...well, hit things like a boxing glove. For when you don't have a real boxing glove, maybe. ]

My world has no such...variety, beyond fire arrows. What I've brought with me seems rather limited in use, compared to this.

Would anyone have the skill and the willingness to help me replicate these, and perhaps some others?

[ Come on, nerds, one of you must be up to the challenge, right? ]

This Green Arrow was truly a genius of his time.

Wonder if the Green Arrow and Green Lantern here know each other...

He's one of my best friends.

[ Usually. When he's not calling Hal a Nazi over their political differences or something, but that's Ollie for you. ]

So here's a question: what's his reason for picking green?

He honed the archery skills on the world's worst camping trip, and decided to keep the clothes when he went vigilante with it. The press latched on.

I blame the hat entirely on his childhood crush on Robin Hood, though.

Robin Hood? Really?

That's adorable.

I thought so, too. When he's not shooting thugs in the hamstrings or calling me a Nazi, Ollie's really just a big teddy bear.

Wait, why exactly did he call you a Nazi?

He's liberal. As in that kind of radical "cops are fascist pigs" literal. I'm a military officer on Earth and a cop in space. You can probably do the math.

Oh.

Then maybe I shouldn't ever tell him that my dad's a cop.

He's great if you just never talk politics with him, ever.

Great, not really a topic I have much to do with.
