With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

That should say 'be'.
Thank you, corrected.
Would Bane work well with a red lantern ring? I know that's not a usual option, but he has some of the right temperament, depending on the version.
If he wasn't dead, yes. Lots of people can. Few can remain focused and useful.
Thank you, corrected.
Freeing Atrocitus means freeing someone that's very good at using the red light and thus you potentially run a very high risk of him escaping and forming the Red Lanterns, who will fight the Green Lantern Corps and maybe the OLC because they're Maltusian organizations, which would mean that now the likes of the Reach and other evil elements don't have to worry so much.
In the SI's estimated there's a reduced chance of Atrocitus going after the Controllers, because while they were involved in creating the Manhunters they wanted them destroyed afterwards whereas the Guardians kept them in service.
 
Anyone who can get angry can use a Red Ring.
I think this is still true in WtRverse but iirc Paul needed someone that could still focus enough through the rage so that they could contribute to fusing into the White Light on Darkheim's soul. Probably a nice bonus that Orion doesn't become a rage zombie permanently dependent on the red ring to substitute his heart too, considering his physiology without Alan having to interfere…

Aaaand somewhat ninja's by WoG. Damn it.
 
This update feels weird, the conversation with Roy about the space ship feels like it would happen before leaving Earths LEO or at most during the travel to Supertown, even enlightened Paul still took a minute to get to Vega and Vega is mentioned as being fairly close to earth (with a small moat with no stars), so going to Supertown should have lasted long enough for that conversation to happen.

@Mr Zoat

I know ring ftl speeds exist as the plot demands because its related to the mindset of the user and his emotional state at the time of use, but I though being enlightened meant that Paul would always give at least 90% to whatever he decided to do.

Before Paul went to Vega he was largely confined to Earth due to his oath.

Arisia isn't confined to a single planet, so even though she may be a rookie, she still has experience in flying through space.

When you're in a metal case with ftl blur all around you, it doesn't really hit in the same way as seeing the planet right there beneath you. Roy wasn't showing any desires relating to it earlier as he hadn't been in that position before. He knew that he didn't have a problem flying; he flies in his power armour frequently.

Alternately, if you don't like that answer, assume that Scott Free opened a boom tube for them and they were standing on a planet a moment before. It won't matter either way.

Oh yeah, Scott Free being able to open boom tubes makes the Lantern FTL speed thing from earlier far less important. The significance of a Lantern being present would just be that they can contact Scott Free across interstellar distances.

They probably can't, actually. Scott doesn't have a power ring. They'd have to contact one of the Lanterns on Earth or the Watchtower and ask them to pass a message along. The Lanterns would also enable them to fly back if he was busy.
@Mr Zoat - I had a thought, could Orion be helped in to becoming an enlightened red ring?
Yes. Sadly, Geoffrey Talbot didn't survive the Anti-Life and the SI has no idea who could help.
