Which is a big problem, as most people don't have nearly their level of power.
Will and Stubbornness make holding onto feeling way better
I kinda wish we could've seen Jordan's reaction to learning Paul recruited a person who was in a prophecy heard by Abin Sur. I'm disappointed in Stewart as I thought he'd be professional enough to get over something that Paul did to him two years ago due to Stewart being mind controlled. Also, I'm assuming Arisia is going to mess everything up and Paul will have to pick up the pieces.
Sodam Yat's fate was supposedly tied to the ultimate destruction of the Green Lantern Corps.
The problem with that expectation is that you have an accurate read of their characters. After three years, I would hope he would, but given that he can still be surprised by things they've done, there's always the possibility of an unexpected outcome.
If Maltus doesn't have such a law, I wonder which nations he might be modelling it on...
Careful how you word that, OL...
...Good, headed that bad end off at the pass. I would not be surprised if he felt that desire rising up.
And with any luck, they'll damn themselves by their own words if they spout the really bad xenophobic Daxamite doctrines.
Indeed, short of having Superman or another full-strength Kryptonian or Daxamite adult pry the Ring off Sodam's finger, there's little to no way to keep him here or on Daxam if he doesn't want to be. And I suspect he'd object violently to that approach.
At worst, he'd have to stay away from Earth for a while. Until the League cooled off...
Honestly, ordering an Orange Lantern to do something only works so well, if they aren't inclined to follow that order...
Ah, the big moment. What to tell him?
Even as young as Sodam is, he probably noticed that hesitation.
Yeah, this is a conversation that deserves comfort hugs.
Should have expected that, really. He is under a yellow sun, his inborn powers coming in full force, much as Clark's did as a boy.
Willing to let herself be blind for a few moments, if it means showing him how strongly she feels about him, eh? Though I don't expect that was entirely a conscious surge of love.
That would have to be Fun Kara, of course. I can't imagine 'grumpy' Kara-Sixteen relaxing that much like it's a sleepover.
He's gone months without wanting to, that's not going to change this quickly.
It would have left him on a very different path. A more stubborn path...
And right you were. But actions have consequences, no matter how well-intended...
Wouldn't be the first time he's had to play whipping boy for an angry person. And it'll let him get an idea of what she really wants.
Definitely more protective, certainly.
...Keeping watch? Most likely option.
Ah, Hal. Nice to hear from you. Going to get off enforced break anytime soon? Or is this more 'Take a week off, man, you're dead on your feet!'
Because Hal is such a workaholic, he does desk work on his days off...
Heh. Not much chance of his prophecy playing out quite the way it would have. I mean, Sodam might one day take up a Green Ring. Or face the same fate as an Orange Lantern instead. Prophecy is not so easily foiled, after all.
Logical enough. They probably expect the Greenie in charge to rule in their favour without too much convincing, because of dumb reasons.
And neither of them would have more than a summary of the details to go off, barring a long period of questioning all involved.
And even she's a little sus on impartiality, plus she's also quite young and inexperienced.
Oh, joy. This promises to be messy.
Interesting to think that Hal could know, if he asked Guy, that the OLC has Ranx in their fold. Now with Sodam Yat, could he possibly convince the Guardians that Paul will fuck up his Corps so bad that it will end up also destroying the GLC?
Some people have great difficulty letting things go.
Either that he's being made to time off so he doesn't overwork himself, or that he can't spend any more time not patrolling the sector.
Thank you, corrected.
League members and affiliates are only supposed to work a certain number of hours a week to stop them working themselves to exhaustion. Green Lanterns are known to be stubborn about this.
To be fair, this is just Lantern Jordan's opinion and is not necessarily reflective of reality. Jordan has other reasons to want Arisia working somewhere where he isn't.
That makes far more sense.
He wasn't anything like big enough to be considered a planet; more of a small hollow moon. As an Orange Lantern he's been explanded into a shipyard and command hub, and derives immense satisfaction from it.
And sometimes people are petty.
