Um. Filling oneself with one overpowering emotion strong enough to warp reality is very different from having emotions in general. Why would you think otherwise?
Eh. I feel that you were saying it was somehow unusual when honestly only the Greenies manage to spend much time at all not seeming at least a little insane.
Because the ability to react intelegently to a emotion is based off of ones alternative methods of satisfying ones emotional drives being better then that of ones instincts. Simply having a larger emotional drive, of any type, shouldn't change that.
Nah it's just that they're the commonly accepted type of insane.
An Insane Red Lantern is the Hulk, but an insane Green Lantern is Thanos: someone with the willpower to disregard their own needs, their own wellbeing, the needs of others, the wellbeing of others, reason, evidence, diplomacy, or sense in the pursuit of whatever goal they have chosen to pursue.
Yeah... look, you're saying there's no difference between being emotionally unbalanced and not being emotionally unbalanced from what I'm seeing here. Which is just dumb no matter how you try to dress it up. Also, you misspelled "intelligently"
That's just empty sophistry and without real meaning.
Green Lanterns are a proven thing. They were around a couple billion years without having members try to kill the universe. Red Lanterns were designed specifically to wreak havoc on the universe as part of one guy's blood feud.
I mean, I guess the actions/oversight of the Guardians that led to the massacre in sector 666 wasn't the responsibility of the Green Lanterns specifically, even if it was the responsibility of the people who mainline green light the most...
It is absolutely not surprising that the Guardians have fucked up. It is inevitable. They are also extremely powerful so their fuckups are super bad. What is surprising is that they haven't fucked up more. They've been around for a very long time, after all. The fact that they have so few dire fuckups hanging around after the last few billions years is a testament to how well they've done.
If by horses you mean cane toads, then yes. The horses are actually good for the environment if i remember correctly.
To be honest, when talking about the badness of fuckups, the Maltusians all ended up less crazy by dedicating themselves to a single emotion. The Maltusians created the Psions, and Krona created Entropy and the Anti-Monitor before they split into the Oans, Controllers, and Zamorrans.
I guess it's just lucky for the rest of the universe that they were apparently designed to thrive when subjected to preternatural monomania.
Nah, she's talking about Brumbies, feral horses which are doing damage to the Australian ecosystem, but the degree to which is argued.
The next chapter should explain a bit more of her logic about the Klaue situation, and you're right in that using the staff is changing her to the indigo light's methods, just not as abruptly and directly as using the ring, and it's going to turn her into a supervillain. She is being brainwashed.
That's fair. I think it's the right way to go. All the extreme colors are really very villainous or insane in their fashion and seeing someone be considered an unequivocal good guy while wielding them would be rather unbelievable. Now, you are gonna have to deal with the "protagonist centered morality goggles" that a lot of your readers are going to have fused with their flesh like some kind of Cenobite creature from Hellraiser and they will refuse to believe the PoV character is anything other than 100% right and just in everything they do. So... be prepared to ignore some comments.
*Megalovania intensifies*
Yeah, this isn't one of the DC universes, so it makes sense some of the underlying metaphysics the Ring and staff were designed to use would be different.
And the loot. Can't forget the loot.
Where's the Space Gem as this point?
SHIELD custody, in Project PEGASUS.
As soon as the ring wears out, he's going to lash out at her, because she just mind controlled him and forced him to ruin his own life. There's a zero percent chance he'll ever willingly interact with her in a non-hostile way.
Technically he voluntarily chose to ruin his own life. The Indigo ring doesn't control you, it just completely rewires your emotions. That's much more ethical.
… Couldn't spring for a vibranium backpack, tactical vest, or utility belt? Something secure and stylish (or at least aesthetically compatible with the armour)?
