He also left Doctor Fate in the JL list.
Has John Constantine actually acted as a member of the Justice League since returning along with Reformation Island?
That should say 'Smiley'. Have none of the other members actually thought about how a being that desires to slow down humanity's development chose to join their group? I suppose villains aren't always self-aware of what they've become.
I'm pretty sure that was Johnny Reb, the Confederate's version of Uncle Sam. It was revealed that he captured the real Uncle Sam some time ago, and Paul only learned he wasn't who he said he was thanks to offhandedly mentioning Uncle Sam to Lady Liberty when he was helping Hephaestean with modernizing the Greek pantheon.
Yep.
No, but the League did the 'he's on a break' thing that they did with Zatara.
No, it's because the human heart is on the left side of the body.
...Oh, my. What did we arrive into? Let's hope they've finished whatever they were doing for now, and are having that pleasant sort of chat afterwards, the kind when you're in an almost enlightened state of euphoria...
Ah. Is this going to be one of those 'way too early in the AM' kind of talks? She evidently saw something in his dreams.
Honestly, she might have a clearer idea of it, but I guess she's giving him a chance to explain himself...
Well, to just come out and say it like that... Hopefully if he was imagining comparing them, she came out on top.
Goddamit, Renegade...It took a second to parse that out, but really, she should be happy you prefer her. It's something that Celestia can't have, unless her dates with Negative-Universe Sombra have been going well.
Heh. Cutely embarrassed.
I mean, by any normal measure, she should have worked it out inside the first decade.
That was a bit worrying. Has anything come of that, or..?
Huh. Maybe it's the old human monkey brain limitations kicking in.
How long are we talking here? Two centuries? Three? A millennium? Or flat-out physically immortal unless killed, in the case of truly mighty New Gods?
Like a deep-layer, heavily compressed database query using a supercomputer versus a simple terminal. The human brain just doesn't have enough cells to hold all those memories?
...Ohhh, I see where he's going with this.
So unless it's something she's regularly thinking about, it sort of fades away.
More like an overflowing vessel. Her memory so full that bits spill out and drift into oblivion.
Perhaps that focus on you makes her able to hold those memories more easily.
That could be an interesting psychological experiment.
Or maybe keeping journals? Though I imagine they'd need to be either very durable or recopied every so often. Paper and ink only lasts so long.
Perhaps something arcane, them. Memory crystals of some kind?
Given that technically, she is just shy of a thousand years younger, yes, depending on how active she was during her exile (And how Nightmare Moon interfaced with her brain meats.)
Well, that's going to be interesting. And handy, given Sunset's plans to eventually make more Alicorns.
And she's probably going to want to kick herself for not thinking of that.
...Well, that was sudden. You think she needs to loosen up a little? Relax with some munchies, if you will?
She knows you very well, Renegade. No technicalities!
...I wonder how human drugs would affect them in human form? It's safe to say there would be worrisome medical issues if they tried them in pony form, after all.
Heh. He's a bit too lumpy for that. All those muscles, you know?
...isn't entirely immune to the idea that perhaps...
Our research has shown that Earth Ponies who study the magics...
She hasn't really studied me in any detail since her ascension.
"Or by your tongue encourage others to do so on your behalf."
Now lie still; We are tired and desire a silent mattress."
Thank you, corrected.
Huh. I'd almost forgotten about the land of summer's end Arc.
Thank you, corrected.
I think she was planning to, but I can't recall if she did that.
When did this happen? Or is he just saying what he remembers from reading in comics?
He's probably just making it up to cover for his comic knowledge.
Well, that's not a very fair assessment of anarchism or political theory behind it, but I suppose it's in character.
And given how crafty he is in comics, that's entirely likely. Though there's a good chance he isn't that enhanced yet. And really, he is still a pre-teen boy. if OL can find him, he can make peace with him and even recruit him, potentially.
...Ooh, that is a good idea. Given the Anti-Life...
...Yeah, that's trouble. And I have the feeling there's more kids out there like him, too...
Oh, hell... Still, it's impressive that he's operating solo like that. Some kids that age couldn't find their own ass with both hands...
...That's not really a bonus, Johanna.
Let's hope he's at least managing to eat healthy. He's clearly surviving, but that's not always enough.
I can't imagine Lonnie wouldn't turn hostile if he realised he was found out...
HEh, now there's an image.
She hasn't seen Monty Python, has she? Or did they not form their troupe here?
Understatement of the century there, OL.
...I mean, it's like he's a trained ninja.
Although I have to think the security footage would be glitchy, given their hacking.
And no doubt Lonnie had the foresight to find out exactly where they were.
A reasonable theory. Unfortunately, there aren't that many reliable empowering methods handy. And random chance...
OL has been keeping tabs on him, right? Not in a creepy way, of course, but as a known potential threat?
Heh. He hasn't met one. Gotta keep that metaknowledge secret somehow.
And that explains so much in one word.
...Like you do. That still seems rather impressive for a maybe-fourteen-year-old.
Though i suspect if they'd noticed, he would have come off more as a future school-shooter, not a super-villain.
Not that he really did anything with it, did he? After all, the Reach and Grayven's forces probably have countermeastures...
...Not that loud or close. Oh hell... Did Lonnie make a Hush Tube this time?
Sadly, Humans lack the innate altruistic nature to make such an idea work.
People are just too naturally inwardly-focused, too selfish to be able to operate that way.
It makes sense, honestly. He's never worked with more than a group of classmates, has he? He has a child's view of how the world should work, and seeing the adults messing it up, as he sees it... Well.
OL doesn't know about Mitchell's plan towards Lex, does he?
I think the school is accustomed to students taking days off, these days.
And that is still awesome. Worrying, but awesome.
Well, no time to play nice with Lonnie, then.
