11 ½

without any persuasion she came to me at once last night and forgetting all the wrong she lay in my arms all the night and had three good long grubblings nothing loth   in fact I was obliged to pretend sleep after it struck two or she would have gone on we awoke at seven and talked till eight   now that she sees me inclined to be off she wants to be on again   said no more about the wrong but began to think she was throwing away her happiness and said she could not bear to part with me   I kept to my gravity tho’ was very kind to her  she said my great spirits sometimes frightened her  she liked me better grave for then she revered me   I said forced spirits were generally overdone but she might perhaps have enough of gravity she asked when she should see me again   I quietly said   someday soon and tho’ she held me ten minutes kissing I left her immediately afterwards without shewing any of my usual reluctance to go  I was dressed in an hour she came to me for half hour talking much as before downstairs at 9 ½ - Miss W- read prayers – breakfast – a little while tête-à-tête with Miss Wilkinson - very civil to her - then at 10 40 proposed to Miss W-‘s going out and our all going at the same time  went to my room for my hat and Miss W- came to me and staid about an hour  evidently courting me more as I court her less   she consulted me about the Ploughs and other business said she had no friend but me   could not part with me  would think of it again till Thursday  when she asked me and I promised to see her  thought I was right  she ought not to stay here Miss Parkhill had told her that she would go to Paris but now perhaps it was of no use as I would not take her  I kept to my gravity  told her of her inconsistency and indecision and asked gently how I could possibly trust her    but still professed my earnest wish to do anything in the world to serve her and behaved most handsomely  thinking to myself well what should I do with her be off  and have no more to say to her    I shall keep up this gravity all went out together at 12 and parted at the William Priestley’s door - Miss W- and her friend only calling to make inquires but I went in for 3 or 4 minutes just saw Mrs WP- who left her room yesterday for the 1st time this fortnight - home in my walk about 12 ½ - came home for John - he had been at Lee Lane with 2 apple trees for Marian - some time talking to my aunt – told her that I knew not how things were for now again that I wanted to be off Miss W- seemed fretting to bring it on again but I should think and care nothing about it – note from Mr. Parker from Mr. Wortleys’ committee room begging me to make sure John Bottomley’s vote – out with John at 2 – finished digging up what I yesterday or the day before xistened [christened] Johns’ garden just under the calf croft thorn clump and moved 2 rhododendron there from the east slope and then went to the Stags’ head Mytholm, had the cart, and got up and brought back a very fine box bush which planted in John’s garden and a large broad leaved laurel which planted in the garden – came in at 5 – about ½ hour with my aunt – dressed – dinner at 6 – read the first 60pp. of Monteaths’ Foresters’ guide which came this morning from Whitleys’ -  had John Bottomley hawing sent for him to tell him to vote for Wortley tomorrow - had ¼ hour’s talk - he promised to vote for him tomorrow or Thursday as he had a job he must do tomorrow - they had all been at him, and some said, they would not employ him again if he would not vote their way but he told them how I wanted him to vote and seeming to care nothing about it but that he thought he ought to oblige me. It is quite useless to leave such men as he uninfluenced - he knows nothing and cares nothing about it, and is literally best satisfied with the idea of pleasing somebody he knows – Hinscliffe called twice today but I was out – wrote all the above of yesterday and of today till 9 ½ went into the other room at 9 50 – John says the shew of hands today was ten to one in favour of Stocks and Briggs – read over the courier – very fine mild day – F51° now at 11 5 p.m.

Astute observation from the Homestuck Made This World discord:

( It’s the Lara Croft buckle, the one from the Angelina Jolie movie )

The association with Jake makes this a good companion to Cronus's headscars, which form the jagged SS of the Schutzstaffel emblem. But in the same way that ICP being the alchemical fusion of Laurel & Hardy with Hitler was a way of encoding black culture as an Evil corrosive influence, I think this moment may be a homophobic (slash misogynistic?) encoding of Jake's adoption of a feminine signifier as evil, corrosive -- in addition to comparing himself to Jolie, it's the first mention of Jake's interest in shorter shorts, the apotheosis being the banana hammock that triggers Jade's traumatic memories and/or homophobia (or perhaps her trauma is just an unknowing cohort to the narration's homophobic spin? I'm honestly still somewhat murky on the extent to which this aspect of the metanarrative flows back into character psychology).

Halloween Party

Summary: Everyone gathers at Ericson's Diner for a Halloween Party.

Word Count: 2451

Read on AO3:

“Alright, I think I got this on right,” Violet strolled out of the bedroom in an elegant long white toga. The sides of her hair were braided and a golden laurel wreath rested on the top of her head. She focused on fixing the part of the toga that draped over her arm when she glanced up and noticed that Prisha was looking at her. “Prisha?”

“Sorry, it's just... you’re beautiful. You look amazing in that toga,” Prisha walked forward and took Violet's hands in her own then stole a quick kiss.

Violet was overwhelmed by all of this happening so quickly but soon looked up at her wife with a soft smile. “You look so pretty,” She took a step back and took in Prisha’s Halloween outfit. They had decided to go with a couple’s outfits this year. Prisha had made sure to suggest ones that she knew Violet would be comfortable wearing out in public and they had landed on a good one. Violet stared at Prisha for a few seconds, feeling her face heat up with how beautiful Prisha looked in her toga. Prisha felt her own face grow warm as she wrapped her arms around Violet’s waist. Leaning forward, she captured her wife’s lips in a soft kiss.

“If you two can take a break from kissing, we should head to the party,” Allison wandered out of her room in her Lara Croft costume. She worked to tie the fake bloody bandage on her left arm but was failing. Using her teeth wasn’t working.

“Here, I’ll help you out,” Violet moved forward and helped her daughter with her costume.

“Thanks,” Allison mumbled as she double checked to make sure she had each part of her outfit. The red ice axe rested on her hip as well as the bow on her back which crossed over her tank top.

“So if you’re going as Lara Croft, who is Willy going as?” Prisha asked while she worked to grab the keys and make sure all three of them had everything they needed.

“Nathan Drake,” Allison looked over at her mom with a smile.

“Very fitting choices,” Prisha nodded in approval. “Alright, I have everything. Are you two ready?” “Yep,” Violet did one more knot on the bandage. “Good to go,” Violet’s fingers intertwined with Prisha’s as if it was second nature as the pair left the apartment.

“Better not tear shit up when you’re having your own party, Sir Tubbs,” Allison looked over at the cat who yawned loudly, causing his Oscar the Grouch costume to wrinkle before he fell back asleep.

Soon the three were in the car and talking about the party. Violet could tell how excited Prisha was about the party but she was also ecstatic to see Violet in a toga. Seeing how happy her wife was Violet couldn’t help but feel the same. It didn’t take long for Prisha to tell Allison for what was surely the twentieth time what she and Violet were dressed as: Helena and Hermia from Midsummer’s Night’s Dream . Prisha went on and on about how much she had shipped them since the first time she read the play and how Shakespeare had gotten things completely wrong.

When they arrived at the diner and opened the door they were hit with Halloween music that helped complement the atmosphere. A snack table was set out with spooky, tasty treats that Omar, Ruby and Renata had worked to make along with a punch bowl where smoke slipped out and swirled round the air thanks to the dry ice inside. Spiderwebs and other decorations covered the walls and two skeletons sat together in a booth playing a game of cards. Louis had helped set them up with Sophie and Marlon’s help.

“Hey, you made it!” Louis ran forward with a lifeguard board, red swim trunks and his signature sunshine smile. “You guys look great!”

“Thanks,” Violet watched as Allison disappeared into the party. Her daughter moved past Oakley and Duck. It was a bit awkward getting by Oakley who was dressed as a washing machine while Duck was dressed as, well, a duck but one who definitely had a story based on the toilet brush he was holding. The couple offered a shortcut for Allison and lifted up their joined hands. Once she was through they continued their conversation as Duck’s thumb gently brushed the top of Oakley’s hands.

“You and Clem came as a Baywatch couple?”

Prisha’s question made Violet turn her attention back to her best friend.

Louis snapped his fingers and pointed at Prisha. “Bingo! Clem is over by T and AJ,” He motioned over to where some people were dancing to “Spooky, Scary Skeletons Remix”. Two dinosaurs seemed to be having a blast as their giant heads bopped to the music. The inflatable T-rex who they soon discovered was Telulah thanks to the small, clear window at the front of her costume was busy holding both of AJ’s hands while he was dressed as a velociraptor. Clementine laughed and danced along in her red lifeguard swimsuit as she tried to get Omar to join in. The ever calm chef now dressed as Remy from Ratatouille turned down the request but tapped his foot to the beat of the song.

“Come on and grab some snacks - they are spookylicious!” Louis grinned at his pun as he led the way. Prisha and Violet followed close behind him, their fingers still intertwined. When they arrived at the food table they noticed Nurgul and Gabe. Nurgul was dressed as a purple Care Bear. A smiling star and heart with a rainbow connected them were embossed on her belly. Gabe was also a Care Bear. His outfit was blue and the symbol on his stomach was a stormy cloud that dropped a few raindrops and hearts.

“Prisha, Violet!” Nurgul gave a friendly smile and wrapped both of them in a hug.

“Hey, are you a Care Bear?”

Violet’s question made Nurgul’s eyes shimmer. “Yep! I’m Best Friends Care Bear and Gabe is Grumpy Bear,” Nurgul took her husband’s hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

“I don’t know why I agreed to wear this,” A grumpy expression was on his face, making Nurgul laugh softly.

“I think your face right now answers that,” Nurgul got on her tiptoes and pressed a kiss to Gabe’s lips. His face heated up and he pulled the hood of the onesie down a bit. The couple shared another kiss before they realized they were at the food table.

“Shit, sorry,” Gabe grabbed Nurgul’s hand and the pair moved out of the way.

“Thank you,” Prisha looked over at her friends with warmth then began to examine the different spooky treats. Cinnamon rolls were baked in the shape of intestines and glazed with red icing and cute cupcakes with ghosts and ghouls were surrounded by piles of candied apples. “What treats should we try?” Prisha smiled over at her wife.

“I don’t know,” Violet studied the contents of the table. “I’m more surprised that Soph isn’t hogging the table.” Just as Violet said that she heard her best friend’s loud, bright voice.

“Holy shit, Ren! Six apples?!?” Sophie watched her friend in awe as she threw back her head from the large bucket of water, another apple in her mouth.

Renata spat out the apple with a ‘pah’ sound before she brushed back her hair and sent a wink over to Minnie. “That’s seven - think I can reach ten?”

Minnie felt a blush creep up on her face as she stared at the sexy Princess Leia costume Renata was wearing. The outfit was making her heart pound out of control. “Yeah,”

“I bet I can eat that many on my turn in the water!” Sophie strolled forward proudly, her Starfire outfit shining as it reflected the different lights at the party. Cupping Marlon’s face, she gave him a kiss to hype herself up. As soon as the kiss was done Sophie got ready to chow down on underwater apples while Marlon stood there in a dreamy daze, looking like a dork in his Robin costume.

As the happy redhead worked to eat those apples all while listening to Renata’s cheerful chants, Minnie watched with amusement until she heard a familiar voice.

“It seems Sophie is having a fun time,” James spoke in his usual whisper-like voice. Minnie glanced over her friend’s way, noticing that he was dressed as the bottom half of a horse.

“Yeah, just hope she doesn’t get water up her nos- aaand she got it up her nose,” Minnie let out a snort as Sophie wheezed and shook her head wildly while Renata whacked her back and Marlon hurried over to help.

After a few seconds Sophie gave a shaky thumbs up and she tried to get back to the challenge but Marlon talked her out of it, holding her hand and suggesting that they go to the food table instead. Sophie nodded excitedly, pressing a kiss to Marlon’s cheek. Soon the two were talking happily, their joined hands swaying as they made their way over.

“Hey, I thought you didn’t like Han Solo?”

Jesse drew Minnie's attention, making her notice that he was the front of the horse, a name tag that said “horse” on his chest.

“I don’t like him; he’s an ass. But Ren wanted to dress up as Leia,” Minnie explained before she felt her wife’s arms slip around her waist.

“Besides, Min looks super hot in the outfit,” Renata got on her tiptoes and stole a kiss. “Also I look sexy in this outfit so we’re really the hottest couple here,”

“Heh, okay,”

Jesse’s response made Minnie’s eyebrows furrow. “What was with that response?”

“Nothing, just that if anyone is the hottest couple here, it's me and James and he’s dressed as a horse’s ass so what does that say about you?” Jesse smirked as he noticed he was irritating Minnie but before any more headbutting could occur Renata chimed in.

“Oh! Well maybe we’ll truly become the hottest couple after my costume change. In fact, I’m going to give Log Legs a small hint,” Renata had a playfully teasing smile on her face as she got on her tiptoes and whispered into Minnie’s ear. What she was saying made Minnie turn as red as her hair before Renata stepped away. “Well, it's time to change,” She smiled at Minnie for as long as she could before she spun around, emphasizing the sway of her hips as she disappeared into the small crowd of people. On her way to the break room to change she noticed her favorite teen. “Hey there, Allie!” Renata ruffled her friend’s hair. “Having fun?”

“Sure,” Allison answered, her face looking stoic as always.

“Trying to find someone?” Renata tilted her head to the side, trying to spot whoever Allison was looking for.

“Yeah, I’m trying to find- Willy!” A smile broke out on Allison’s face as she spotted her energetic boyfriend dressed as the infamous treasure hunter Nathan Drake. The water pistols in the twin holsters on his arms sloshed faintly as he jogged over towards Allison.

“Allie!” Willy wrapped his girlfriend up in a hug and spun her around. “I found you!” He gave a big smile before placing her down.

“Yep, you found me,” Allison gave a soft smile, her pinky wrapping around Willy’s.

Willy swayed on his feet back and forth. “So, what do you want to do first? Dancing? Eating?”

“I wanted to play cards with the skeletons,” Allison saw excitement dance in her boyfriend’s eyes at that.

“Yes!! Let’s go!” Willy grabbed Allison’s hand and excitedly led the way. The young couple ran through the party, running past Mitch and Brody.

“Be careful!” Brody called out but saw that neither of them were listening. With a tired sigh she took her husband’s hand.

“Don’t worry about it, Brodes. They’re just having fun,” Mitch smiled over at Brody and led the way to a spooky game that was about to get started.

Brody gave a nod “Yeah, you’re right. Anyways, ready to kick ass and win prizes?” She flashed a competitive smile up at Mitch.

He immediately returned it. “Fuck yeah, we’re gonna kick ass as the two best fighters in Resident Evil,” Mitch displayed his Leon Kennedy costume proudly then glanced over at Brody. She looked amazing in Claire Redfield’s red leather jacket.

Brody caught her husband’s eyes on her. “What?”

“Nothing, just think you look fucking badass,”

Brody blushed at Mitch’s words and planted a kiss on his cheek then continued to lead the way.

The couple soon passed by Ruby and Aasim dressed as Jessie and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story who were talking casually until a certain song perked up Ruby’s interest. Twirling her lasso, she snagged it round Aasim. The action whacked against one of his buttons, deploying his wings as an overwhelmed smile pulled on the corner of his lips. Ruby had a confident smirk as she roped him into a dance. As the two danced they noticed that Clementine and Louis were cuddling in a booth.“Aww, aren’t you two the darn cutest lifeguards around!” Ruby smiled over at the couple who were holding onto each other tightly.

“It's for survival,” Clementine nuzzled her face closer and tucked it under Louis’ chin.

“Turns out being dressed in swimwear and putting the air conditioning on high was a bad call,” Louis cuddled closer to his wife. “The AC makes the ghost decorations that James and Tenn made look extra cute though!”

Aasim was about to make a comment until Renata’s bright voice appeared from the hallway. “Is everyone ready for my big reveal?” Minnie swallowed roughly. If what Renata whispered in her ear was really a hint, then she was extremely overwhelmed at the thought of this costume reveal. She had teased that it would show even more skin.

“Alright, here I go!” Renata strolled forward dramatically. Before she had even turned the corner Minnie had passed out, right by the punch bowl. No one seemed to notice though as all their eyes were on Renata’s next costume, jiggling wildly as she bounced out in a large inflatable Jabba the Hutt costume. She gave her best Jabba sounds as Sophie cheered and sang an improv parody of the Teen Titans theme.

“When there’s trouble you know who to call - call Jabba! She can leave a slime trail made of goooooo - It's Jabba!” The song was quickly devolving into nonsense but the two friends didn’t seem to mind nor did the others as they enjoyed the party. Halloween at Ericson’s Diner was always a spooky good time.

[marryat92]

Although it was written 10 years ago, I only just found this charming and informative blog post, about a story from an anthology of Jane Austen-inspired original fiction. The writer drew inspiration from Jane Austen's nautically-tinged novel Persuasion, and from Frederick Marryat's Peter Simple.

After you explained that Peter Simple was an Age of Sail novel written by an English Royal Navy officer, it all started to make sense. I knew that in addition to our shared passion for our “dear Jane” that you were a huge Captain Horatio Hornblower fan who had studied naval history and lore from the era. I was astonished that you were able to pull a plot element out of Peter Simple about sailors receiving family letters and selling them to their shipmates for entertainment and then make the leap to creating your story, “Heard of You,” about the early career of Austen’s Captain Wentworth and Admiral Croft.

I know exactly what scene this is in Peter Simple: midshipmen selling their correspondence (and bargaining over sisters at home) with their messmates.

The blog post goes on to mention the Royal Navy connections of Jane Austen, who had two brothers in the service, both of whom acheived flag rank in their long and successful careers. Virginia Woolf specifically connects the hero of Marryat's Peter Simple and the world of Jane Austen in "The Captain's Death Bed":

Peter quotes a letter from home and the other side of the scene appears; the solid land, England, the England of Jane Austen, with its parsonages, its country houses, its young women staying at home, its young men gone to sea; and for a moment the two worlds, that are so opposite and yet so closely allied, come together.

Captain Marryat himself admired Jane Austen's prose, going by an excerpt in his Life and Letters where he imagines that a revised version of Frank Mildmay "will be so improved that he may be permitted to stand on the same shelf with 'Pride and Prejudice,' or 'Sense and Sensibility.'" (But he was too busy with other projects to ever rework his first novel to Jane Austen-level quality).

I have already remarked that information about the Regency world put together by Jane Austen's large and dedicated fandom can be a boon to readers of Frederick Marryat. It's nice to see the Austen fans turning to Marryat for a contemporary (more or less) naval voice from the same cultural world.

Alpha Centurion War:

Location:

Laurissa Owen Jones: Planetary County: Battle of Cosmic City: Lori in her black and blue solar suit against Defiant Destroyer (Raquel Mariana Alonzo) in her black and white solar suit and Spectacular Sentinel (Clarissa Patricia Chambers) in her black and red solar suit:

Alexander Mack Smith/Alexandria Macy Smith: Hellfire City, Shadow City, Enigma City, Crypt City of Hellfire County and Haven City:

The Elites, Paragons, & Sentinels at the Elites HQ Base on Earth’s moon Luna:

Earlier:

“We heard your request for assistance Elites we are sending support,” said several voices on the transmissions, “We have sent reinforcements, please stand by,” the voices of Directors of intergalactic black ops and spec ops organizations of the Sol System, Vega System, & Polaris System as all are members of Enigma, Cipher, Shadow, Crypt, Spectre, Void, Arcane, Nether, Spectre, Ghost, Quantum, Libra, Gemini, & Scorpio appeared through the warp pad teleporters to help the Elites, Paragons, & Sentinels. For the directors of such intergalactic deep black compartmentalized classified and top secret organizations with jurisdiction throughout the universe, multiverse, & omniverse imagine people like Director Eliza Danvers of the D.E.O (Department of Extranormal Operations) branch of National City, Director Amanda Waller (who is the Director of Argus, Director of Team 7, Director of Checkmate, Director of the Agency, & the Director of the Suicide Squad), Director Jeremiah Danvers of the D.E.O Headquarters of Washington D.C, Director John Lynch who is Director of Team 7 and the D.E.O Branch in Metropolis, Director Vic Sage of the Suicide Squad). Cobalt Crow and Ruby Raven (commanders of the Elites, Destiny, & the Paragons now that Alex/Lexi has been compromised) with the Paragons and Destiny had arrived to help the Elites. “All of you,” Jonathan Ruslo and Jessica Croft also known as Cobalt Crow and Ruby Raven said to several metahumans of the Elites, Paragons, & Sentinels are with us as the containment team.” For the metahumans of the Elites, Paragons, & Sentinels imagine people like Deathstroke (Slade Joseph Wilson), Adeline Kane Wilson (Deathstroke’s wife), Ravager (Grant Wilson), Ravager (Rose Wilson Worth), Dark Archer (Malcolm Merlyn), Red-X (Zoe Lawton) the daughter of Deadshot (Floyd Lawton), Huntress Prime (Helena Bertinelli), Natas (who trained Deathstroke and Green Arrow), Colonel Steven “Steve” Trevor of Argus and Team 7, Nightwing (Richard John “Dick” Grayson), Oracle (Barbara Joan “Babs” Gordon), Catwoman (Selina Kyle-Wayne), Red Hood (Jason Peter Todd), Red Robin (Timothy Jackson “Tim” Drake), Spoiler (Stephanie “Steph” Brown), Batgirl (Cassandra Cain), Huntress (Helena Kyle-Wayne), Green Arrow (Oliver Jonas “Ollie” Queen), Black Canary (Dinah Laurel Lance-Queen), Red Arrow (Roy William Harper Jr.), Tigress (Artemis Nguyen Crock), Arrowette (Cissie King Jones), Cheshire (Jade Crock Nguyen), Sportsmaster & Huntress (Lawrence Crock and Paula Nguyen Crock who are the supervillain parents of Artemis Nguyen Crock and Jade Crock Nguyen), Harley Quinn (Dr. Harleen Quinzel), Deadshot (Floyd Lawton), Bronze Tiger (Ben Turner), Bushido (Ryoko Orsono), Speedy (Mia Dearden), Arsenal (Emiko Queen), Katana (Tatsu Toro), Captain Boomerang (George Harkness), Rick Flag, Lady Shiva (Sandra Wu-San), David Cain, Talia Al Ghul, Nyssa Al Ghul, White Canary (Sara Lance-Al Ghul), Ra’s Al Ghul, The Sensei, Former Talons of the Court of Owls Calvin Rose and Strix, William Randolph Wintergreen (the person who trained Slade). “Containment, our mission is containment; contain him/her/them (Alexander Mack Smith/Alexander Mack Smith), contain the Behemoth to Crypt City, Shadow City, Hellfire City, & Haven City of Hellfire County but if you can try to stop her/him/them.” “The rest of you on standby, if we fail, focus on stopping Alexander/Alexandria.” “Dean Lucas Chambers, Mason Owen Jones, Carolina Robbins, Lisa Mackenzie, Lola Macias, & Layla Nolan are already on their way to stop Lori.” “This is a two pronged assault, said Katherine Hawkins, “they share a mental link, emotional bond, & spiritual connection so stopping Alex/Lexi stops Lori, stopping Lori stops Mack/Smith.”

 “However if you do fail, then don’t worry for we are here to stop him/her/them,” said Wyatt Headly said, referring to himself and the team sent in the stop Alex/Lexi if containment doesn’t work the superhuman members of the Elites, Paragons, & Sentinels. Imagine people like Hotspot (Isaiah Crocket), Risk (Cody Driscoll), Argent (Antonia Louise “Toni” Monetti), Starfire (Koriand’r), Pantha, Blackfire (Komiand’r), Mas y Menos, Tempest(Garth), Dolphin, Kaldur (Kaldur’ahm or Jackson Hyde), Tula, Narwal (Koryak), Baby Wildebeest, Jericho (Joseph “Joey” Wilson), Kole (Kole Weathers), Red Star (Leonid Konstantinovitch Kovar), Terra (Tara Markov), Dark Raven (Rachel Raven “Rae” Roth), Hawk and Dove Prime (brothers Henry “Hank” Hall and Donald “Don” Hall), Shazam (William “Billy” Joseph Batson), Troia (Donna Hinckley Stacy Troy), Captain Marvel (Frederick Christopher “Freddy” Freeman), Aquagirl (Lorena Marquez), Captain Marvel (Mary Willow Batson), Blue Beetle (Jamie Reyes), Static Shock (Virgil Ovil Hawkins), Zero (Lagoon Boy or La’gaan), Miss Martian (M’gann M’orzz or Megan Morse), Jinx (Jennifer Hex), Zachary Zatara, Reverse Flash (Daniel “Danny” West of the Reverse Flash Family), Reverse Flash (Eobard Thawne of the Reverse Flash Family), Inertia (Thaddeus Thawne of the Reverse Flash Family & clone of Impulse Bart Allen), Zoom (Hunter Zolomon of the Reverse Flash Family), The Rival (Edward Clarris of the Reverse Flash Family), Captain Cold (Leonard Snart), Heatwave (Mick Rory), Impulse (Wallace Rudolph Allen the son of Iris and Barry), The Flash (Jason Peter “Jay” Garrick of the Flash Family), The Flash (Bartholomew Henry “Barry” Allen), The Flash (Iris Ann West-Allen), Impulse (Iris “Irey” West of the Flash Family the daughter of Wally and Linda Park), Jesse Quick (Jesse Belle Chambers of the Flash Family), Belle (Elizabeth “Libby” Belle Lawrence-Chambers the wife of Johnny Quick), Impulse Prime (Bartholomew Henry “Bart” West of the Flash Family the son of Wally West and Artemis Crock), Kid Flash (Wallace Rudolph “Wally” West), Terra (Tara Markov), Hawk and Dove (sisters Holly and Dawn Granger), El Diablo (Chato Santana), Black Manta, Thunder and Lightning Prime (Gan and Tavis Williams), Enchantress (June Moon-Jones the wife of Killer Croc (Waylen Jones), Aquaman (Arthur Curry), Aquawoman (Queen Mera), Aqualad (Arthur Curry Jr), Ocean Master (Orm Marius), Black Lightning (Jefferson Pierce), Wonder Woman (Diana Prince), Atom (Ray Palmer), Doctor Fate, Martian Manhunter (Jo’nz Jo’nz), Red Tornado (John Smith), Green Lantern (Harold “Hal” Jordan of the U.S Air force), Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris-Jordan of the U.S Air Force), Hawkgirl (Queen Shayera Hol Stewart wife of Green Lantern John Stewart), Green Lantern (Colonel John Stewart of the U.S Marine Corps), Swamp Thing (Dr. Alec Holland), Deadman (Boston Brand), John Constantine, Hawkman (Carter Hall the ex fiancé of Shayera), Giganta (Dr. Doris Zuel-Choi), Atom (Dr. Ryan Choi), Firestorm (Dr. Ronald “Ronnie” Raymond/Jason Rusch), Killer Frost (Dr. Caitlyn Snow-Raymond), General Dru Zod, Colonel Ursa Zod, Major Faora Hu-Ul, Cheetah (Dr. Barbara Ann Minerva), Green Lantern (Police Sergeant Guy Darrin Gardner), Thunder and Lightning (Anissa and Jennifer Pierce), & Cyberion (Victor “Victory,” Stone), Zatanna Zatara) of the DC Prime Earth). “If containment of him/her/them just to Haven City, Shadow City, Hellfire City, & Crypt City of Hellfire County doesn’t work, we’re sent in.” said Sarah.” “If they fail then we move Cardinal Changeling in her Behemoth form and take her down in Celestial or Stellar City and Retro City,” said Empress Cornelia Augusta Rossi-Romano a half Atlantean and half sea nymph who is the wife of Emperor Angelo Vergilius Romano the son of Neptune and a female Atlantean Empress.” 

“Do we really need all of these people to take down Cardinal Changeling,” asked Kurt. “Yes, we do” said Mason Owen Jones, Dean Lucas Chambers, Lisa Mackenzie, Carolina Robbins, Layla Noylan, & Lola Macias on their comms.

His/her/their adoptive children were with Chucky (the imaginary friend creation of Maria, Tadashi, & Nathan created when they were kids and upgraded when they were preteens which is a giant 30 foot tall teddy bear modeled after an ice age cave bear with superhuman strength, speed, durability, & claws that can rip through steel) who protect them since their real parents abandoned them. It was their only companion before Alex/Lexi found them and adopted them as kids. “It was long before your time,” said Levi, “it was and still is the most badass battle of all time.” “When your parent our strike team commander and field commander Crimson Changeling or Scarlet Shapeshifter (formally known as the Changeling or Chimera of the Elites and former rookie and protégé Animal Boy/Animal Girl of the Primals and Exiles Alexander Mack Smith/Alexandria Macy Smith) of the Elites and Paragons, your adoptive mother Joanna “Jo” Jacobson-Smith (Elites and Paragon asset and civilian sponsor and supporter of the Elites and Paragons), & Arcane Assassin (Sentinels supporter and sponsor of the Elites and Paragons Laurissa Owen Maximiliana Jones) of the Justice League) led all of us the Superhero, Antihero, Supervillain United Legionnaire Strikeforce (a superhero team that is an alliance between the Elites, Paragons, & Sentinels that defend the universe, multiverse, & omniverse) against all of our enemy the Forces of Evil a supervillain organization and supervillain alliance who seeks to conquer the universe, multiverse, & omniverse,” said Sean, “In the Alpha Centurion War (named after the Alphas and Centurions that made up the superhero conglomerate the Elites): Battle of the Milky Way Galaxy and the Battle of the Andromeda Galaxy.”
