[It's good that this is voice. Because Dick is having a few moments of kicking himself over how he didn't see this before. Though he understands at least partly why: the Legionnaires of this world hadn't seen what Babbage was doing as strange. So he'd never given it a second thought.]
[In hindsight, of course, everything looks different. And, if given the chance, he'd be kicking himself over the fact that he missed it, just like he'd missed everything as it happened with the Outsiders.]
[Luckily, he has plenty to keep his mind occupied at the moment.]
I never really knew Brainiac 8. When she was with the Outsiders, she was going by the name Indigo. We found out later that the personality was a subroutine, but also sort of a personality of her own. It was a little confusing at the time. That could have been the head injuries, though.
Brainiac 8 went to the past to kill a good friend of mine, Donna Troy, so that she would never keep Coulans from dominating organics. Brainiac 6 created the Indigo subprogram to...to endear her to the heroes of the time, make it possible for her to integrate with us and then take us out from the inside. She was...Indigo was. She was a good kid. Innocent and naive in a way that none of us were by then, maybe never had been. She looked to us to teach her how to be human and that's probably the only reason we're all still alive. She was able to break through Brainiac 8's personality when she was injured and begged another member of the Outsiders, a guy called Shift, to...to kill her. Because it was the only way to stop Brainiac 8.
