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.

I'm not sure how to go about it either, but we could probably put our heads together and come up with something. Should probably put it aside until I've gotten used to being back home again and we've cleared a few more pressing matters off our plates, but it might be worth looking into.

Yeah...it's probably for the best that you don't.

And I don't know if they have one. The new squad fairly recent and they're not as cohesive a group.

The staff betting pool, however, is still a thing.

I'm pretty sure it would scandalize some of the newbies and give me a reputation-with-a-capital-R.

[ Lyle grins. ]

I can't help with that either. Like Brainy said, after Superboy, before Mon-starr and that's all I can say.

Sounds like a plan. It'll probably be difficult, but I like a challenge.

I don't think I introduced myself properly. I'm Dr. Ray Stantz. Codenamed Ghostbuster. Just call me Ray.

[personal profile] atippleoftransparency 2017-04-21 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
That's what I like to hear!

Nice to meet you. Lyle Norg, Invisible Kid. I'll answer to pretty much any permutation of those, up to and including aggravated noises. What's your doctorate in?

Oh no no no, I was the tossee in that situation.

[He laughs, because...Dwayne. He can't not laugh at it now. It's a ridiculous thing to get nostalgic over, and it sounds terrible out loud, but it is what it is. Now it's just a story about Thrash being his Thrash-est. He's pretty sure Dwayne would want it this way, anyway -- instead of a sore spot between them? A funny, fond story. Now and forever.]

It's a long story that involves me losing my powers and our team leader, uh... having a very confrontational leadership style in the beginning.

But we figured it out. Still... little flaily in the beginning, though. I was just curious if it was the same for all of you at the start. You know. Anything blown up or thrown off something.

[ He's glad he didn't go into more detail. The Flash does not need to know that Cos has a membership to several 20th/21st century-related museums, including the Flash museum. Rokk tries to correct slightly with a broader view of the truth. ]

It's an honor to meet everyone. We're big fans of the new Legionnaires - although some of you aren't so new anymore, are you?

[ Cos gives him a reassuring smile. ]

I wouldn't worry about it too much, if I were you. Being as good as the Flash or Superman, that's a lifelong path. It's not something we can do overnight. You can judge your decisions by how you think they'd have acted, but it's not fair to weigh your life against the entirety of theirs.

Everything about this is awful and I will have nothing to do with it.

That's… an interesting way to lead a team. [ NO, but Rich is laughing, so it must have ended well enough. ] You should use the longer story when you tell it. I'd know what was safe to say if I knew what happened before and after the, uh, tossing.

[ This is why Rokk is being hesitant about sharing any early stories. The earliest might paint people in a bad light, and he doesn't want to get fond over working through the beginning of the Legion when so much went wrong, although more went right. He's the only one here of the original three… five… and a large chunk of the first thirteen are still missing.

He won't tell them anything that makes anyone look bad, not even Winema Wazzo.

Imra got me to fire my magno-ball manager. I don't know if that counts, but it did blow up my career. [ He can laugh now, with a few years space between him and finding out about the embezzling that went on while his parents lived in poverty. ] I like this one better.

I think the closest thing I can think of in my world to a professional sports player just tossing it all out the window for the sake of being a do-gooder was...uh...NFL Superpro and we -- we don't talk about him.
rokketmann: (pic#11042483)

[personal profile] rokketmann 2017-04-21 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He knows it's meant as a compliment, but it has always felt uncomfortable to defend or accept praise for what Rokk sees as a blatantly easy choice. You can be a superhero or you can be something else. ]

Why don't you talk about him? I'm curious now. The NFL... oh, I know this. The Gotham Knights, the Metropolis Metros.
iamresponding: (bucketless - reassuring smile)

[personal profile] iamresponding 2017-04-21 01:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Now Rich starts laughing again, partly because of the answer to that question, partly because Cos knows what sound like 1000 year old football teams.]

We don't talk about him because his power was basically football, as far as we could tell -- and you seriously know NFL teams? Does the NFL even exist anymore?

[He space googles the NFL and laughs, without even stopping the recording.]

That is dedication.

Mechanical Engineering and Parapsychology. I'm a paranormal investigator back home, and I design and build devices for capturing ghosts and other psychokinetic entities as part of a ghost-catching business my friends and I run. The company name is where my codename came from.

Yeah, I do.

[ But he's laughing along, because he knows it's obscure trivia nowadays. ]

Earth history from the turn of the third millennium is a hobby of mine, and, well, I like sports.

I don't think NFL Superpro sounds strange. My power is being Braalian and magno-ball.

[personal profile] rushing_by 2017-04-21 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I get it. It's just a little hard to get out of the mindset that that's what's expected from me.

[Barry shakes his head, deciding to change the subject.]

Gotta say, it's always a little weird for me to hear how much reverence people here treat Superman with. As far as I know, he doesn't exist in my universe. I knew of him before coming here, thanks to an accidental interdimensional jump, but I'm actually more familiar with Supergirl.

I mean, you could be. Think about it.

Who wins if you just decide to do the thing without anyone telling you?
