[He's had days to think about this. Spent a lot of time cooped up and moping. But the medicine is working and the words are coming back and sometimes he actually has the energy to move. He went to his Hab space the other day, slipped off his shoes and laid in the grass, the same way he had when he first got to Legion World and had reveled in the feeling of still being alive.]

[He's not sure if he's glad to be alive now, but he's at least glad that if he is alive, he's not there. He's glad that he never has to go back - that there isn't even a back to go to. The Cancerverse is gone. For good. ]

[And he's talked to a few people, and has had a lot to think about.]

[Robbie promised him a penthouse room in Mt. Wundagore and... he's ready to go home. He's ready to go home and do a lot of things differently. He's ready to take what he's learned from being in the Legion, not the least of which was to lean on his friends again instead of taking it all on alone.]

[He's still jittery and on edge and he doesn't like being seen that way, so his message to the rest of the team is in text. It's just easier to talk to people that way. For someone who tries to be kind when others are at their weakest, he's never been comfortable with anyone seeing him that way.]

Sorry it's taken me so long to talk to everyone. I needed some time to myself. My memories of the Cancerverse are still all jumbled up in a way where I can't really tell where I was first - here on Legion World or there.

Anyway, I want to say I'm sorry for what I did while I was under the control of the squids. It felt like something was wrong but I didn't know what and anytime I thought about talking to someone, I just...didn't want anything to be wrong. And it got all hazy whenever I thought about doing something about it.

But I should've tried harder to tell someone.

And if I said anything weird or nasty to anyone, I'm sorry for that, too. I can remember things better now and it was like two conversations were always going on, one where they were talking through me and a fake one they made me remember. I always walked away thinking I'd said something else. I think they were trying to isolate me and push people away. I swear if they said something awful, I didn't mean it. I remember saying something else.

As for how I'm doing, since I know a few of you might ask: Dr. Ry'kerr says I have PTSD now. I've always been pushing close to it, with the war and everything back home, but this pushed me right over the edge, I guess. She says it's better if I talk about it instead of pretending it's not there. I don't know if that's true but some of the other stuff she's done has helped so far.

I'll be honest, I'm kind of a mess right now. But I'm not there, that's what matters.

It's bad enough, though, that I don't know if I'll be able to help the team for a while. I think if everything goes to hell with Chronoblivion, I can maybe step up, but right now I just need some time to work through some things. Kid Q says I should take it easy and that if I get cleared for duty again, we'll try some easy missions first. Baby steps.

A lot of people helped me in the Cancerverse - and Peter and Worldmind, too, and I want to thank all of you. Dying wasn't an option but you all could've wound up stuck in that place, and trust me, that would've been worse. I wouldn't be here right now if it weren't for you. I'd either be dead or stuck there again. Forever. Which I don't even want to think about.

I don't know how I feel about being here right now, but I know how I feel about not being there. The time I spent there made it so I was barely a person anymore. Just instinct and misery. I could've been trapped in all that again, but I wasn't thanks to some of you. So thank you.

I guess that's all I wanted to say.

[ The camera comes on, showing a kid wearing some kind of strange battle armor. Definitely young, too young to be part of the Legion. But the muscles and mess of spiky black hair probably give away who this is. ]

Um... I know I'm used to time travel and everything, but... I'd like to stop changing ages now.

It's really weird.

[ An incredibly fuzzy image blips across the screen, dark with some patches of skin, which ends up looking like a forehead as the camera pulls back a little. The screen shudders and the audio rustles noisily as she sets up the camera to point it at herself. She speaks directly over the speaker, mumbling low under her breath at first. ]

Testing, testing...

[ Then she draws back completely and with the most utmost concentration, she positions it so it captures at least most of her upper body. She's a skinny little teenager with massive hair, decked out in all black. ]

Hellooo, Legionnaires! Lash here, and this is experiment number three. Now I know, I know, I know what you're thinking! "What's with this cute mysterious girl? Boy, would I love to know more about her! Why doesn't she say a few words about herself?!" Well, that's because we've got way more important things to do here!

[ She giggles, an almost diabolical squeaking that sounds distinctly like a "Teeheehee!" ]

Check this out!

[ She presses her palm against the wall of her room, the ones the Legion assigns the newcomers, and her entire body begins to slowly transform. Not just her body, but her clothing, too. The semi-matte texture of the smooth wall turns Lash into a statue of white. Her wild hair almost seems a little too top-heavy, though, and she tilts slightly to one side. ]

Whoa— OK! Looks like the volume is a liiiiittle more equal to the mass than my actual hair, but it's not too bad. I can work with this.

[It takes a moment for the camera to adjust, but no matter how hard it tries the figure on screen seems to be bouncing about, constantly taking themselves out of view and absolutely ruining any sort of focus.]

Hey, hey. So, this is pretty low tech, huh? Can anyone hear me? Hellooooooo?

[There's a slight muffled thunk as Tenno reaches forward to tap at the camera with one finger.]

Yeah, so about that hero thing, when does it start? Like, I'm all ready to go now yep, no time like the present to head out so uhhh where do we go to start kicking butt?

Greetings.

[Starting it with a hello was fine, he was sure. Still, talking to more people than just one was proving to be a difficult prospect. He'd have to call on experience from his past.]

While not a current priority, where would one go if one required both mechanical repair and medical attention? Can the medics fulfill both purposes?

I am willing to provide a service in exchange for this information. Simply let me know.

[A one-for-one. Hopefully that was enough. Genji gave a slight bow with two fingers in front of where his mouth would be before turning things off.]

I'd like to take a trip to Old New York. Or New New York. Or whatever it is they're calling it these days. It's a personal matter, nothing serious for anyone here. However, given my... unfamiliarity with the current time and my public status, I would like to request someone come along with me as an escort or a distraction for nosy cits while I take care of my business.

I'm willing to accompany you on anything you need to do while you're there. [Assuming it's legal.] No need for a wasted trip on your part, after all.

Okay, let me see if I’ve got this straight.

[ The feed opens on Videl with her usual judgmental expression, but she’s now sporting a significantly more stylish haircut than the last time anyone saw her. ]

It’s been ten years, and you guys still haven’t beaten Chronoblivion? What have you been doing all this time?

[ Further complaining is interrupted by a rustling noise next to her. Videl turns to look to her left and some indistinct mumbling can be heard off screen. ]

It hasn’t been ten years here? Well, how long has it been? [ More mumbling. Videl groans impatiently. ] You’re no help at all.

[ She returns her attention to the camera feed, running her fingers through her hair as she tries to call back memories she’s left untouched for years. It may not be evident by her appearance, but ten years have passed since Videl and Gohan disappeared from an off-world mission around Valor Day. ] I don’t see what the Time Trapper thinks he’s going accomplish by dragging us back now, after all this time. I haven’t been at the top of my game since before Pan was born and Gohan’s training is sporadic at best.

[ She heaves a sigh. Videl’s frustration is only surface-level though; deep down, she’s a flurry of excitement about the idea of reliving her glory days. ]

Anyone mind helping an old lady get up to speed? Last I remember, Gohan and I were on a mission on either Rimbor or Bgztl and it was getting close to Christmas. Or whatever they call Christmas here.

--Oh, hey, it's working!

[ The footage clearly shows Gohan in his bedroom, the spiky black hair unmistakable. However, there are enough changes in his appearance to wonder if he'd done something different with himself lately. His hair stood straighter, he was wearing glasses, his clothing was less high school and more professional. But ultimately, what clinched it were his next words: ]

For a second there, I thought I forgot how to work this thing... anyway, hi guys, this is Gohan! How is everyone? I don't know how much time has passed here, but for me, it's been ten years since I was last here!

[ Suddenly, he pauses. Smile faltering, as a realization comes to mind. ]

Oh, um... is Chronoblivion still a threat? Or is this before that gets revealed? Oh man, I uh... I should've probably looked into that first...

[Gwen is frankly not okay knowing that her past is on the verge of being broadcast to way too many people. So, she's dealing with it in the most responsible way she knows how.

By distracting herself on something else entirely.]

Why?

Never really stopped to think about it until now.

So um... I've been thinking about this for a while. Ever since we left Harrub, actually...

[ He grimaced a bit, pausing for a couple of seconds. Glancing off to the side, before taking a breath, and addressing the camera again. ]

But um, after the whole Murderworld thing... it's kind of become clear that some of us aren't... handling things that well... [ He was thinking about Videl specifically, but the anon meme has also made it clear Videl wasn't the only one. ] I know we all took the oath for various reasons, and we probably all expected different things out of becoming a superhero. But um, some of us probably didn't expect this... so...

... With the whole "Legionnaire Legacies" thing coming around the corner, I think we should... [ Another pause, as he tries to figure out how to phrase this. ] ... um... I guess, share our lives with each other? To make sure we're prepared, in case... in case the news digs up stuff about us, and tries to drag us through the mud with it.

[ This is so weird and strange and against everything Gohan knows. He's usually the most secretive person in the world, but... he's kind of had to cope with having an open identity, so might as well go all in. ]

I guess um, I should go first? My name's Gohan, and... if you have any personal questions for me, I'll be happy to answer them...

[ 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? ]

[A rather awkward and uncomfortable looking 15 year-old boy with extremely unkempt hair comes over the video feed. He's obviously not used to things like this.]

[Namely: Being social in any capacity with people outside his class.]


Uh. H-hello, my name is M-Midoriya Izuku, U.A. Superhero High School class 1-A. Not that, um, not that anyone probably knows what that is, alternate universes and all...

[He catches himself slouching as his words drift off to almost whisper-quiet, his bashful nature getting the better of him. He quickly sits back upright, and speaks louder.]

I've just joined the Legion, and so I'd like to introduce myself. Which I...just did. Right. My, uh, my hero name is Deku, which is also my nickname back home, so feel free to call me that...if you want to, of course...

[Normally, he wouldn't be nearly this flustered, but being told you're going to face an unspeakable evil of cosmic, universe eating proportions can do that to a person.]

A-Anyway! I just want to say, I might be young and inexperienced, but I look forward to working with you all!

[Please, someone tell this child to unclench. At this rate it seems like he might pass out from awkwardness if left to his own devices.]

[ Videl has just returned from a patrol on Bgztl, a lovely and peaceful place that bored her just about to death. She's been back on the Legion World for no more than two hours filing post-patrol paperwork, debriefing, and impatiently waiting for a chance to access the omnicomm network and get up to speed about what she's missed. ]

[ And that's how she greets the Legion network. No hello, no pleasantries, just a sudden video feed of herself looking rather anxious and not trying to hide it. ]


What's the status of the mission with the alternate dimension Lanterns? Have those teams returned yet? I need to know what happened.

[ Her eyes are flicking quickly back and forth from left to right, showing that she's reading something on her screen while she broadcasts. Videl's eyebrows, ever expressive, rise as she skims the Legionnaire roster. ]

Geez, that Time Trapper jerk was busy while I was gone. Six... no, seven new recruits? Is that right? [ She asks wonderingly, her agitation briefly giving way to surprise. ] I thought I was only on Bgztl for a few days. Unless there's some weird time discrepancy between Bgztl and Legion World. [ What even counts as a 'day' in this weird universe? ]

On yeah, and speaking of Bgztl... [ Videl's tone shifts to annoyance. ] If you ever have to go anywhere on that planet, make sure you ask about doors before you get to your destination. Native Bgztlians can just phase through stuff whenever they want, so a lot of short sighted architects forget to add doors to their stupid buildings.

Listen up, Legion. Unfortunately, our little vacation from catastrophe is apparently over. (Surprise surprise.)

The Legion outpost around Phelolu just registered a new incursion through the rift, made up of several groups of people, all of them apparently armed with different colored power rings, not unlike the one that used to be wielded by your fellow Legionnaire, Hal Jordan, and not unlike the ones wielded by the various Lanterns of ancient galactic history.

The outpost was attacked by yellow and red ringwielders, but was successfully defended by ringwielders with pink, purple, blue, and green rings.

The outpost staff sent us the footage they captured.

[Footage briefly plays, showing the view outside the outpost of several groups of Lanterns fighting each other, glowing in various colors. The ones bearing yellow and red rings look terrible and sinister. Some of them look like they're mostly made up of claws and fangs, and the reds spew flaming blood at their enemies, burning some of them alive.]

[The violets are beautiful as they fly around with their crystalline powers -- and er, slightly scantily clad. The indigo tribesman are few but an impressive force on the battlefield, redirecting ring energy with their staffs. The greens and blues seem to work together very well -- green constructs bolstered by blue energy -- as if the blues were made to support the greens. After a successful defense is mounted for the Legion outpost and the red and yellow lanterns are dealt considerable damage, with many of them successfully captured, first the yellows retreat with stargates and then the reds.]

After the yellow and red Lanterns retreated to locations unknown, the contingents of pink, purple, blue, and green Lanterns contacted the outpost and were diverted to Legion World, where their situation was explained to them. Between Brainy's scans and their own words, we've determined that they're from the 21st century, in a slightly alternate universe, rather than our universe's own past. (And also an alternate to your universe, Jordan).

There are rumors that the Lanterns all retreated to the edge of the universe back in ancient times, and we believe that the reds and yellows may have left to seek out any of their counterparts that exist in this universe in the 31st century. If they find them -- and the location of the power batteries that would let them link up and recharge their rings -- we could be looking at a renewal of the ancient war they all used to fight.

The other contingents of Lanterns are allied together and asking for the Legion's help in stopping the reds and yellows. The greens think they already have a lead on where the ancient Green Lanterns settled in our universe. They think it might be on the remains of a once living planet called Mogo, who was a Green Lantern, and think they know where to find him. The pinks can apparently detect something similar and think they can find the power source that the pinks of this universe used to use in ancient times.

I'm going to be leading a team to go with them, as an escort and to help mount an offense against the reds and yellows before they return to wreak havoc in civilized space. The Lanterns we'll be working with aren't familiar with this century or any of its politics, and they're also even unfamiliar with some of its species since they didn't exist until certain worlds were colonized.

The team I bring has to be prepared to wield any rings we might be able to get our hands on. After seeing the power profiles they were able to give us, we're going to need all the firepower we can get. Our own powers might not cut it.

Questions, concerns, protests, or letters of resignation because an ancient space war is restarting and who needs that nass -- go.

So, I think we've all earned a night off, yeah?

I was looking up bars down on Earth, but this one club I came across sounds like it might be good for this group. There's a whole separate part of it that's got entertainment for the 14-18 set, apparently. Antigrav moon bounce, stuff like that.

Equally relevant to our interests: no cover charge for Legionnaires.

I'll be down by the threshold hub to head out at seven. Be there or be square.

[ Hal has completely forgotten that the legal drinking age in the United Planets is 14.

Hal does not realize that the younger-targeted section of this club is in fact equally well-equipped for that particular entertainment.

Hal is going to be facepalming very hard later tonight. ]

[A rather tired looking face rose up into a video feed, surrounded by a soft yellow mass. It looked as if his head had been shoved into a Coney Island cutout--but, the cutout was absent of anything but plush yellow fabric. He shifted slightly, sniffing with what clearly looked to be disinterest.]

It sounds like you've all had a good run, so far. Despite that, I hope no one thinks they're beyond a little tutoring and critique.

[He seemed to retreat a bit into the yellow fabric.]

My name is Aizawa Shouta and I'm a Professional Hero. If you need advice or even a good place to hone your skills while you're not currently on a mission--I'm in my biome and I've had it fitted for the sake of physical and strategic training.

[The entire time, he struggled desperately to emote and yet--nothing happened.]

Alright, that seems good enough to get the point across. Talk to me.
