Thank you for the As Time Goes By reference. I watched it growing up and then a couple more times as reruns. That's a good episode.

Thank you, corrected.
No, that's right.
None of the actual genomorphs have a biological sex. In the Renegade timeline, only g-goblins have a gendered appearance. There aren't really enough of them to say that their behaviour is gendered and they're all doing more or less the same job.
No, his backup is Shayera, John, Diana, drones and a legion of g-elves.Does anyone else feel that Grayven's lighthearted-shoot-from-the hip idea to get Apokolips involved and start a war just like that seems incredibly dumb and hasty?
Like...he just decided that. Just like that. And is only backup for going there is supposed to be Shayera?
Like, what?
in a way, it was legitimately badass-It should be set to start in the correct place. Granny Weatherwax uses magic to remove all self-deceit from the duchess, and she shrugs it off. It's near the end.
Lucky him.
but I remember this being spelled as g-gnome?
I am pretty sure Zoat mentioned that New Gods in his story aren't just Avatars, but the actual local versions of themselves.Wait. Wont Darksied just resseruct eventually. Wasn't it just one of his Avatars. True Darksied could just remake it at anytime. Or did this fic drastically change NewGods and make them unique to each universe rather than existing outside the universes and using avatars.

No.
'Avatars' are up there with 'Doombots' as stupid ways to allow characters to deny their failures.Wasn't it just one of his Avatars? True Darksied could just remake it at anytime.

Wow... As bad idea's go that's like an 11.Hm. "My conquest aura should let me… Influence a faction if I slay their leader. Granny's Furies might be useful for attacking Thanagar, especially if we're trying to start a war between them."
Meh, can be done well. I remember this one HP/Stargate story that had HP making several clones of himself then spread his soul and magic across all the clones, and all the clones shared memories to create a semi-hive mind. So to kill him you would have to find and kill every one of his clones. He still failed at things, but it was hard to really kill him. Also it allowed him to live a few lives at the same time. Yeah, it was an overpower story, but it built up to it.'Avatars' are up there with 'Doombots' as stupid ways to allow characters to deny their failures.

Try the Archive thread.Mr Zoat - I tried starting your story at the beginning, and found that there are many chapters on the story only thread that have not been threadmarked. It jumps from the MC finding himself in space to talking with M'gann about clothes.
EDIT:Sorry, just realized you just threadmarked the beginning of each section/book/arc instead of each chapter.
If they were the last, only members of their species...would it not?I don't think killing a faction leader and a few mocks counts as genocide.

So, looking a little better than usual.I look up as I stroll through the boom tube out onto the surface of Apokolips. The map I have of Apokolips 16 doesn't quite match-. Doesn't match at all, really. I.. think that's the Tower of Rage over there, but they don't appear to have ever fully rebuilt it from when the upper levels were destroyed during Superman's climactic fight with Darkseid 50. And the vast plaza around it where armies once marched to display Darkseid's power has been torn up by the treads of thousands of dragon tanks and blasted by the fire of a million weapon blasts.
Yes, you recognise the Nobility, don't you?I hold up my right hand and lift them off the ground with a series of yellow bonds. Plenty of fear on Apokolips. A couple make a token effort at struggling, but the rest drop their weapons and cower as much as their restricted movement will allow them.
Should be 'hope'"Fighting these bottom-feeders would be an almost-embarrassing waste of our time." I fold my arms behind my back and take a few steps forward. "Scum of the Armagetto! I am Grayven, son of Darkseid. You have until the count of ten to find me someone worth killing or I throw you at the walls in the home that someone important investigates." Heed My Commands!
Missing ending Quotation mark.
Watch the flirting, kids...
Ah, fodder.A piercing, shrieking… Growl, pierces the air, prompting both Shayera and myself to look upward as a flight of stub-winged parademons launch themselves from a nearby defunct chimney and take to the Apokoliptian sky. Some have.. some sort of halberd, while the rest are contented with just their claws. The swarm of them flies up into the sky, circles around-
Nice technique, but kind of slow...-Shayera viffs around an outstretched halberd blade and batters a parademon around the jaw with her mace. It jerks in the air, dropping its weapon in shock as the mace's energy discharge pulps flesh and pulverises bone. It's a testament to their resilience that his entire head isn't obliterated, but as it wallows stunned in the air she performs a small swoop and slams her mace up into the-. Not the jaw so much as the exposed palate, then brings it down on the top of its head.
Almost pitiable how outclassed they are.-and swing it through a parademon who dives at me, claws extended. He attempts to parry my swing with his claws, and has them sliced off as a result, He lands, dumbly staring at the bleeding stubs of his severed digits for a moment before I create a fusion cannon construct on my right forearm and shoot him in the head.
Oh-ho, Granny's looking this way!
Give him time to think, would you? How rude.That's at once frustrating and mildly pleasing. Alright, fighting. Need momentum. With so many parademons coming right at me my flak cannons are killing them far faster but-.
I swing my daiklave through a parademon and turn aside to try and deflect its corpse's momentum. Partially successful, but the speed and mass of its torso still impede my-.
I suppose 'drowning the enemy in your corpses' is a common tactic for them...A parademon grabs my sword arm. Another endures a slice through its shoulder well enough to grab my legs. I fire my fusion cannon through the flock but one of the quicker parademons manages to sink its claws into my construct and destroy it. Another attaches itself limpet-like to my face, roaring at me in an attempt to distract me. The world around me darkens as more and more parademons pile onto the heap above me, until my vision is reduced to the snapping snarling fangs in front of me.
I doubt they're buying, no.I take a moment to relax and then go limp. The only risky part here is that Apokoliptians probably have forms of aura-reading that I'm not familiar with. A defeated God of Conquest would feel rather different to one biding his time… But maybe they'll chalk that up to arrogance. As long as I avoid actual god-speech-.
Good to see he looks enough like the local version to pass for him. At least, to someone who isn't a complete idiot, like the Forever People."Grayven?" She smiles back in what looks like genuine pleasure. "I didn't know you were back on Apokolips."

There's surprisingly little fanart of her, considering her use of whips and bondage-costume.I definitely understand why Brainwashed Superman got with her, she's hot.
Thank you, corrected.
