[ 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? ]

Calling all nerds, calling all nerds! We have a code pocket protector!

[ Grif leaves a trail of pings to several more technically inclined characters to help speed Ina's search along. Left intentionally vague, of course. ]

[She might be used to not yelling into her omnicom, but Rebecca is so surprised to hear someone talking about archery that she loudly exclaims an "ah!" into it before...dropping it. She'd just been checking it, she needs to remember to 'check it,' how strange is that? It's so unlike communicating by courier.]

Hello? Are you saying you come from a world without all of these machines, or...

[No, no, that's not the important part!]

I'm an archer as well! ...I've never seen arrows like those, however.

I can probably handle that. I've built things fairly similar to those arriws before, so it shouldn't be too hard.

...Would you be willing to skip the boxing glove arrows? That's the kind of thing the laws of physics have nightmares about.

In fact, most of these are really impractical. Frankly, you'd be better off redesigning them.

Is that really a boxing glove arrow.

Oh my god.
