Post-Mission Briefing [video]

[When Kid Q goes on the comms for the post-mission debrief, she is smiling. Smiling smiling smiling.]

I'm happy to report that both of the recent missions were a complete success. After we weakened Tsarista by breaking out of all her story scenarios, we managed to re-capture her in an omnicom. Some of our allies from Sorcerer's World have given us some assistance in providing better magical protections around her prison.

[Her smile widens slightly and goes mischievous.]

If anyone wants to see the pictures we got of Brainy turned into an adorable forest creature, Timber Wolf is making the rounds.

As for the mission against the Herald and the Council, War and the Council-members are currently in Science Police custody. After she's fast-tracked for trial, we've made arrangements for her detainment to be on Legion World, like the Joker, to prevent any possible corruption at Takron-Galtos from allowing her to escape. The recording equipment Brainy sent you into the mission with successfully captured video of War despite the surveillance-disrupting nature of her powers. We've provided all the evidence to the Science Police, and they've obtained warrants to pry into the Council-members' affairs. They're currently making dozens of arrests all over the UP, of various corrupt government officials, dirty cops, and other individuals responsible for colluding with Chronoblivion.

[She's beaming.]

Not only did you stop the Council-members themselves, you've made it so the Science Police have been able to uncover an entire web of individuals that they've been working with, significantly weakening Chronoblivion's ability to interfere in the UP government and Legion affairs.

We still have to worry about the Herald spying on Legion World, but we have some leads on ways to stop him and one of our next missions should give us the tools to do it.

Things are going to be different from now on. Now that we've gone on the offensive, we're not going to stop until we take Chronoblivion down.

In other news, the two hostages you rescued? They were two of our missing Legionnaires, Rokk Krinn, aka Cosmic Boy, and Lyle Norg, aka Invisible Kid. Brainy's scanned them thoroughly to verify their identities and they're the real deal. They've verified that the missing Legionnaires are alive, currently trapped in a pocket dimension with strange preservative properties that've made it so they haven't aged or needed things like food and water. This crystal dimension actually allowed them to view our universe -- so they've apparently been keeping an eye on the team, watching our fights. (They promised that they've only watched things we've done in public.)

Recently, they were able to work together to free Rokk and Lyle, and they've spent six months relative time wandering through the multiverse, through dimensions where time ran differently, trying to get back home. When they arrived back in this universe, they were unfortunately picked up by corrupt Science Police officers, and taken to the Council-members. Fortunately, they were able to resist telepathic interrogation.

If the Council-members had successfully made the hand-off, they probably would've been tortured and killed, and the information they knew about the missing Legionnaires could've potentially been used by Chronoblivion's forced to find and kill our missing friends.

Not only did you make it so two of our own came home safely, you may have saved the entire team that we lost. And now that they're here, Brainy has enough information to start working on bringing our missing friends home. It's going to take time -- weeks, months, maybe even a year -- but now we know for sure they're alive, rather than taking Joker's word for it, and we can start working on it. If we can get them home in time, we might be able to enlist their help before our final fight against Chronoblivion.

You all did something incredible today, and undertook actions that restored balance back to the UP government, protected the team from future sabotage and interference, saved two Legionnaires just trying to get home, and protected close to 20 missing team members.

I'm proud of you, Legionnaires.

C'mon, Timber Wolf, you know I don't share.

[It's complete and utter bullshit on Wash's part. It's also worth continuing the joke.]

Huh. I wonder how many sentients who appear to die in explosions actually end up in other realities and can't get back? If there was a way to study that, it would be a pretty interesting study.

I think that definitely qualifies as a "yay team." Or a "Long Live the Legion."

Or, what was it the one time? "Live Long the Legion and Prosper?"

[The smile fades and Timber Wolf chews slightly on his lip.]

They're both alive and okay, right? Just waiting for the rest of us to get 'em out?

That's all I need.

[Brin snorts.]

You say that but according to the fanfic, a guide to all your romantic relationships would have to be color-coded for anyone to keep it straight.

[Lyle laughs and sticks his tongue out.]

Anyway, that's basically what happened. It gets more complicated in the details, but hey, what doesn't?

[ Cos nods at this with a touch of pride and several universes of struggling to keep the faith in his eyes. His voice is quiet, but firm. ]

Long live the Legion.

[ It's been too long since he said that from a position of hope and security. ]

[Brainy spends a few seconds pointing at the screen, making a face, trying to figure out how to say no without lying.]

I won't say that it's necessarily wrong, but you don't see me making in-depth speculations on the rest of the team's various...entanglements.

[He goes on primly.]

The only entanglement I pay attention to is the quantum entanglement bonding you all to this universe.

Well, it doesn't. They were friends.

Welcome home.

Hopefully, we can get the rest of your lost teammates home safe soon, too.

[There's a comment in there somewhere about moral high ground, but Wash is just going to consider this one a win.]

I'll take that as a yes.

[His smirk is audible.]

look if two of my friends had some falling out and were making things awkward for the rest of us you can bet your spandex clad ass id be giving them hell until they got their heads out of their asses

I think I'd like that more than being home. [ And he likes being home so much it feels selfish, when he remembers the others (so, all the time). ] They're your lost teammates too. Watching you Legionnaires work was better than any holovid. We knew it was only a matter of time.

[Wash, on the other hand, has a few more pieces than he's been letting on. 76 had said that he'd been a part of Overwatch and that they'd been sold out, likely by Talon; Widowmaker is part of Talon, which makes Azucar and Reaper part of it too; and Reinhardt had vehemently called Reaper a traitor. Given the bad blood between 76 and Reaper, Occam's Razor dictated that Reaper had probably been part of Overwatch's betrayal, and that it had probably been very personal for both him and 76.]

[None of which Wash cares too terribly much about in the moment, given that the two of them aren't at all subtle about their animosity, but if Tracer had been part of Overwatch too, then that bad blood is probably personal for her too.]

[He'll give Reaper shit until the vegan spacefuture cows come home, but not at the expense of someone else.]


Dave. Tone it down.

[Private to Dave]

Knockoff Ghostface and 76 can take it, but it's upsetting Tracer, and I care about her more than either of them. I'll keep going with you later if you want, but not in front of her.

[ He meant in private, not wanting to make it so personal publicly. If that's all Brin needs, Rokk won't go further and make this worse. ]

They're alive and well, and they know we're going to get them out.
turntex: (Default)

[personal profile] turntex 2017-04-20 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
sure thing dad

[Except that privte bit makes it feel like dadlike to him, but he's gotta maintain the joke. Besides, "sure thing bro" both doesn't have the same effect and kind of makes Dave a little sick thinking too much about it.]
unrecovered: (Well...)

[personal profile] unrecovered 2017-04-20 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take you out for ice cream later, kiddo.

[Back to the jokes, because everything's fine here, right? Right.]

[personal profile] zippity 2017-04-20 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
[This time, her voice gets a little firmer.]

You don't know anything about either of 'em -- who they were to people, or who they were to each other. Or about what happened.

[Even she doesn't know what happened -- not really. Just that one day, the HQ fell victim to an attack, and the last two of her three superiors were dead.]

You wouldn't be making jokes about it if you did.

[He chuckles.]

I'm sure it was real entertaining during the flailing-around-like-a-newborn-giraffe stage.
