    He did blow up the Citadel. Though the fact that they’re giving him shit for blowing up the Citadel… I dunno. Maybe they blame him for Pluto, which was… always a Mother Star. Because… an Orange Lantern’s (Manga Khan’s) mining laser was used? Paul can be inhuman and seemingly deranged, but the...
  2. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    I love it when he actually uses construct lanterns. I wonder if he’d use assimilation more often if he could learn to undo it himself? Sort of like how to gain enlightenment, he needed to learn how to turn his desires off. Just… not want the construct-lantern, or want it with all its...

    I… yes, that's why I said 'maybe he got authorization?' I can square those two together. The reason I said 'but then' and then quoted Paul saying that killing is discouraged, but allowed is - how does that work out? Did he simply mean that Sinestro should be happy because killing is allowed at...
  4. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    I mean, I'm happy to help if that's helpful and not presumptuous, but the demon quote at least makes it clear he doesn't like them (his reaction to the Hellwraith - a shade of a person twisted by hell until their soul was unrecoverable - being destroyed was 'couldn't have happened to a nicer...

    A few questions, regarding contradictions in the story - or just something that doesn't make sense. Here, Paul makes use of a demon. Specifically, in regards to the Sheeda: Now, I can understand not wanting to mess with Mammon. But he's clearly willing to assimilate beings that are...
  6. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    As has been pointed out, the Sheeda invasion was early in the year (May), while Zeus and Ares fell in November. It’s not a plot hole or a gotcha or anything - they’re lazy as fuck - but Ares spends all his time trying to cause war and be empowered by it, and this takes place outside of Greece...

    Sigh. It looks like Smiley - like John - is well-versed in the art of the Shiny Distraction. So much for tracking him down now that Paul is absolutely certain he's a big threat invested in opposing him, personally. …wait, this just hit me. Why wasn't Ares empowered by the Sheeda War? It was...
  8. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    Be…cause… he's been… assimilated into the norm by the system? Because of the Source, and merging with Original Grayven? Because Paul's original body was killed and his soul is made of Orange Light; I suppose his Enlightenment doesn't restrict him as much as Grayven's Role does, but… it still...

    On Smiley v Grayven: So! Grayven also uses magic to enforce a lack of corruption, though instead of using truth compulsion in trials/political oaths, he has a secret police of telepaths who work for him. Does that empower Smiley enough that he's fine with him, because dictatorships are corrupt...
  10. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    It’s sort of funny that Boss Smiley is protected by Paul cutting corners; he really needs to go recruit a New God (Allyn, anyone?) for checking over Earth. Drag ‘em through the Honden. Now this stuff, the magic reasoning, is really cool. And it’s lovely to see them finally making actual...

    Demiurgi tend to be resistant to a punch in the face.

    I mean, A) she's making a point that Paul is less important than his girlfriend, and B), well, yeah. No one does pay attention to Paul's exploits in the context of civilization, just in terms of Paul when they have to deal with him. This story has been about how every human thinks Paul sucks and...

    So. McDonald’s is running that ‘ad’ a decade earlier, huh? It’s interesting. Tech is a bit accelerated, because superhero world and Lex Luthor, but I assume this means enshittification of at least fast food ingredients (if not the pricing) has also leapt ahead of Earth Prime’s timeline. By...

    Went back to review what Hinon did and didn’t know about Apokolips (yes, she knew about Yuga Khan). It may have been that she was rapidly reacting to an existent server with data, or secret communications from the other controllers while she negotiated, or something of the sort. But she appeared...

    Uhhh… So. I'm… not sure about how to ask this, so here goes. Dream is… interestingly limited, and I wish I could read more of Sandman (which I will not be buying, unfortunately, for what I shall call 'personal reasons). I'm surprised by his relative weakness here - Grayven noted that...
