Total Eclipso The Heart [modplot/network]
[cw: Suicide. The Catastrophists are very self-destructive.]
[Moving Apokolips isn't easy but one thing's for sure - it must be done. Its current location is heavily guarded, yes, but known to the Catastrophists. The only way to guarantee they won't try to reignite it again is to make it so it can no longer be found, but that entails moving an entire planet. Even more difficult: moving one that's massive compared to other worlds. Apokolips is enormous, and the New Gods had been the size of giants, only rendered as small as normal humanoids by their boom tubes when visiting the rest of the galaxy. For the UP and Legion to work on Apokolips, Brainy had to modify the threshold gates to work with boom tube technology so anyone passing through is adjusted to the right size.]
[Fortunately, he's no longer the only Brainiac working on problems like these. Computo left him with some useful information about mother box technology before wandering off to travel through the galaxy in an attempt to find leads on ways the Legion can fight Chronoblivion. And Brainiac 6's naturally intuitive understanding of dimensional harmonics has helped Brainy figure out how to make a threshold gate system large enough to not only move the planet somewhere more hidden but also to permanently render it a size more fitting for the humanoids guarding it.]
[So everything seems to be going okay. The team has been told to be ready to be deployed, in case anything goes wrong, but so far - for once - something seems to be happening without it exploding into a crisis.]
[When Brainy shows up on the comms to report in on their progress, he's on the planet and engineering teams behind him can be seen working on components that will be T-gated into orbit and fitted together into a very large, specialized threshold gate in space. Even without Apokolips being active, the backdrop he's reporting from is eerie. The place looks the way one might imagine hell if all its fires were extinguished.]
Progress on the relocation of Apokolips is proceeding apace. The different engineering teams each only have the information they need to perform their specific task in the construction, so knowledge of where the planet is being relocated to is still secure. The joint Legion and Science Police garrison on the planet is also reporting no suspicious activity. Provided that there are no unexpected...impediments, construction should be finished within the hour, and the relocation process itself should only take a half hour.
[ooc: Everything in the first thread is visible to the team, but only comment under the briefing post. Only those in the plot can comment.]

Crazy, right?

[Maybe that extra brain power is mostly from the under 5 set, but between Valeria and B6, now Brainy has extra help figuring out stuff like this. And Computo being around for a little while probably hadn't hurt.]
There are so many variables in play in this universe due to magic and tech that it's impossible to account for everything. Sometimes the best we can do is just try to be ready for a fight and adapt when we know the conditions. That's a reality to this superhero thing some of you need to get used to.

Rambling excuses for incompetency. Nothing more.
[And because he doesn't like the feeling, he cuts off the feed. Who the hell does he think he is? Honestly.]
