In fairness, the important part is having connections at all. He still has friends and coworkers, not to mention Jade, so he's not in any imminent danger of spiralling into solipsistic rabbit holes.
That was a... Strange word substitution on my part.
You have not received one yet, no. Technically, you could have worked it out, but only with weird guesses.
That actually would be a pretty good twist. And it would give an interesting situation where there is an actually good Zod. Granted, not the same Zod most people think of when they hear the name, this being Admiral Zod and not General Zod, but a Zod nonetheless.
Theoretically "just following orders" is not an excuse, in practice it is usually considered to be a mitigating factor as long as the person following orders had no reason to believe that the orders were not legitimate.
PUT! It was PUT!
Just for clarity, the local Kara has been in the fic for years, but the possibly-Silver-Age-Kara has been around for a shorter period, I think (or at least has been in for fewer years and fewer onscreen chapters), and she's the one that most people tend to consider aggravating. Not completely certain which one @BartlettMagic was referring to, though my guess is possibly-Silver-Age-Kara.
Said shorter period being almost exactly four years IRL and 10.5 months in-universe, so I'd say the statement stands. She is also great, by the way, can't imagine disliking her.
... I feel old again. I didn't think it was nearly that long.
"murdered"
Thank you, corrected.
To be fair, the League would have been wary of letting you back near the sidekicks at the time anyway. And you moved out, partly to Gotham and Maltus. Time goes on, life goes on...
True enough. Some good, some bad.
I see they're having their own moments of uncertainty, as they move into adulthood.
Oooh, there's a good girl we haven't seen in far too long!
Gotta remember, she's a lot more intelligent than the average canine, and more powerful too with that Danner Formula treatment.
Heh, still looking after her big packmate.
Of course he did. SO Konner will know what he's here for. But there's no rush on that front.
Understanding of him. Although I find it amusing OL felt the need to kinda-teleport past him just to get into the room faster.
And ultimately, it's Clark with the Projector in his cupboard. We can only hope he's reasonable about this.
'Leave life to the living', and so on? They are personality engrams, not biological people. To some degree, they're highly advanced chatbots and database lookup interfaces. At that level, it kind of blurs the line between virtually intelligent and actually intelligent.
Ultimately, Krypton was not the best of places. At least this universe is less sterile than the immediate post-Crisis era...
Because of the aforementioned ownership of the Phantom Zone Projector...
Good, business out of the way, time to actually enjoy some time with friends.
Plenty, but not necessarily something bad.
As in Devastation? It's been so long I've just about forgotten her origins... I take it things are similar to other canons.
I'm guessing nothing serious, mostly in the line of 'causing an affray', assault and battery, that sort of thing.
...Okay, that's kind of shitty. And I bet it won't work with 'mock combat' like Professional Wrestling, or combat sports like MMA type stuff?
Well, OL does seem to find himself in life-or-death fights fairly often. But I don't know what a Brute could do in his circles...
Much more use of a foot soldier in a combat-zone than anything. Enough fights for her to thrive, but not enough responsibility to worry about...
She'd probably use it to make big gauntlets to punch better.
I blame her 'father'. If she was made by Cronus... He made her as a disposable weapon to hurt everything.
Heh. Smash sisters. in multiple senses of the word.
Yeah, Tuppence is trying to keep clean, but... She's not really the 'straight and narrow' sort.
Yes, it very much is. Neither of them are really the 'long heartfelt talk' types.
Interesting choices. Both useful in some way. Fitting for a prince to learn that sort of management, especially if Themyscira opens up more in future.
Though I suspect she'll find that Private Investigation isn't as exciting as movies make it out to be. The way I hear it, it's mostly paper-trail following, occasional observations and if you get into a fight, you've pretty much fouled up.
Yes, I imagine the Olympian god of Economics will be able to teach Kon some amazing things.
...
If I had any advise for someone considering that -other than don't- it would be 'plan out an arc with a clear end and then for the love of the gods stop'. You can come back to it afterwards, once you have anothe arc planned out.
