“Quite…” Justin smiles politely in return for the laugh, then arches a brow, feigning intrigue. “Surely not everything said about you is lies, Booster Gold.”

“Well.... only if it involves Blue Beetles, casinos, or Oreoes,” Booster chuckles. “Especially don’t believe anything Guy ever says.”

Justin blinks, then puts on a smile. “I believe there’s a reason for that–some might simply call that home.” He holds out his hand to Booster. “You’ll have to forgive me, I don’t know all members of this League as of yet.”

Michael smiles at him and extends his hand to him and shakes it. “That’s alright, there’s a lot of them and some of them have the same name or used to have the same name and it’s all very confusing,” he laughs. “Booster Gold!” He then lowers his voice to a whisper, conspiringly, “Don’t believe what they’ve said.”

Booster’s flying by the hallway as he hears Justin speak. He turns back and lands gently next to him. For a silent moment he just takes in the sight too. “Yeah. No matter how many planets I see over how many generations, this one’s always my favorite.” He looks over at the person next to him. He knows who he is of course, but Mike can’t exactly remember if they’ve ever spoken before. He knows Justin is new the JL right now, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t spoken in Mike’s past or Justin’s future. 

@neverheardof

It’s odd to Justin to be on such a large team that he hasn’t even met all the members yet. Having been in the modern era for several decades by now, he’s mostly accustomed to it, but the Justice League’s technology still inspires awe from time to time.

He finds himself staring at Earth from the Watchtower, a sight that never fails to strike him. He doubts he’ll ever get accustomed to this.

“’Tis astonishing, isn’t it?” he says as Booster happens to be passing by.

critical role sentence starters !!!

so… we’ll talk later.

why won’t you stay down and die with dignity?

no. no further.

this is not over. it can’t be.

try not to have too much fun without us.

i have this blink candle. it’s formed from various animals that blink.

it’s so rare that we’re actually given the opportunity to be honest about everything. we might as well try it once and see if we like it.

you know i’m in love with you, right?

you seem… like a person. and that’s great.

those are coins! you’re not making it rain, you’re making it hail!

i’m killing someone, hold please.

your secret is safe with my indifference.

my heart is someone else’s.

do not go far from me. if we are out of earshot, you are too far from me.

um, i don’t know if it’s the food you made or the fact that we’re going to die tomorrow, but i want to kiss you.

i was all kinds of fucked up a few weeks ago.

you’re all kinds of fucked up all the time. we all are. and that’s why we’re together.

i just want to let you know… i am possibly the worst person you’ve ever met.

i think i kind of hope… not necessarily to hurt you or harm you, but i hope that one day… that you can know just how awful i can be.

you can curse, it’s okay. you killed one of us.

i think i’ve always been in love with the idea of you.

i was only gone for thirty seconds!

i encourage violence.

i can give you the means to protect them.

i do not want to die who i am. i’d like to live long enough to be someone else.

you’re on your own, fuckface.

a volcano is - is nature’s candle!

sometimes people go and they don’t come back.

do you spice?

so we’re going to kill everyone that we see in the next ten seconds.

i don’t want to be here if you’re not.

i told you before. no one kills you but me.

he traded his life!

i don’t have very many things that i care about and i don’t have anything that cares about me.

i’m great! well, not really, but i’m just going to pretend i’m happy so everybody can be okay!

i’ve been in a barrel for an hour. i fell asleep in there!

yes. i heard. it was the only thing i heard.

don’t cry. i’m just a little cold.

i bury my shame.

i should have told you. it’s yours.

forgiveness - that’s the key, isn’t it? it’s the only way to really grow.

your hair’s a mess. sit still.

you are my heart. you are me. you are my other half. you are welcome with me always.

you don’t always have to put on a brave face, dear.

we’re friends, right? are we friends?

i know we don’t always agree and i know i can be unkind, but… you know you’re family, right?

i’ve had a terrible thought. and it is sort of my business to have terrible thoughts.

take me instead.

we walk towards glory.

that’s mine! that’s mine!

did it choose me because i was broken, or did it break me?

please bring him back to me.

you think you care about me?

this was always supposed to happen, wasn’t it?

i love you. if i can find you, i will. if not, stay alive.

if he’s gone i won’t be the same.

i’d watch your moral panic all day, it’s delightful.

in many ways you are my total opposite. but you are also my best friend.

i made a choice. this is my family.

i forgive you. but i cannot let you leave.

please. please. i love him as much as you do.

fix him. fix him!

i like this family. i’d like to keep it.

i want you to know that you are like a brother to me.

talk about my sister again.

it’s been a while since we’ve had one of our depressing chats!

i can’t have you gone. i need you here.

i think we’re very broken people. but i think together we’re much greater than the sum of our parts.

don’t ever fucking do that again.

you didn’t die. but you did! but you didn’t. but you did! and then you didn’t.

i don’t want any of this! i don’t want any of this.

i’ve just had a near death experience and i’m craving some lasagna. 

you know, you’re getting weirder.

you and i are very different.

i’ve killed two of those who’ve wronged me and nothing is better. nothing feels better. nothing is avenged.

call me “child” one more goddamn time!

if you’re lucky, you die last.

some people have no sense of fucking honor!

i’ll take my clothes off if it’ll inspire us.

thank you for believing in me.

you’ve never done anything for me! never! you’ve never risked anything, you don’t know me!

everyone else believes in you. why shouldn’t you?

how many fingers am i holding up?

what’s the first letter of the alphabet? this you know.

yay! teamwork!

you fucking died!

don’t touch me right now! i’m not - don’t touch me!

i’m going to go get a sandwich.

you had us all very worried.

your reckless impulses will get you killed!

i’m done with gods. they will not help me. perhaps you will. 

this is too fucking much.

come here, you shithead.

it has been an honor.

screw you! i want my final words with you to be indignant and irritated.

you’re the face i saw when murder entered my heart.

i’m undecided about you.

never forget you’re my favorite. and i’m so sorry.

i’m not leaving him.

you’re a better man than you believe.

feel like making a home here?

you’re an idiot and i’m very proud of you. don’t do that again.

sound off if you’re alive.

it’s not going to work.

“How would that work?” Barbara tried to hide the mild sting that came with the implied slight on modern academics. It would be easier for Rani in some ways but she could only imagine the logistical nightmare that would come with a conventional placement. “I mean, any school would need a reasonable ability to contact you in the event of emergency, and that can’t exactly be easy when you’re traversing across millenia.”

“Time travel, and a chronometer set exactly to her school’s time,” he shrugs, “I’ll need to talk through my plan some more.” A pause in thought. “I have equipment that communicate across time.” He gently cups Babs’ cheeks. “Let’s talk more about this later... ok?”

“There’s something to be said for having a purpose.” She leaned in and gave Michael a peck on the lips before continuing. “Life never quite ends up the way we want, but if we’re lucky, we find a place where it all makes sense. Where we’re content to stay a while.”

She seemed to want to say more, but held back, unsure how to explain that it was even harder sometimes to face his absences. Anyone else she could keep tabs on. Watch over them. Send satellites to intercept their comms. Michael’s situation was far different. It seemed silly to say anything. This relationship had given her a better perspective on what her former stepmother had endured being married to her Dad.

“And you weren’t dumb. Naïve maybe. Inexperienced. And you’ve still managed to keep a noble heart no matter what anyone else says. That takes more courage than the entire Green Lantern Corps combined.”

Michael smiles at the affection. “You’re cute when you’re being all wise and insightful,” he teases a little, smiling genuinely at her.

He, of course, has no idea the worries running through her head, though he had had similar enough thoughts on his own. Wanting to know his loved ones’ futures but afraid to know. Needing to keep so many secrets.

“No I was definitely dumb when I first got here,” he laughed, “Why do yo think I was easily dragged into mischief?”

“A girl after my own heart.” Barbara could appreciate the feeling, having had the habit of being far and away more academically advanced than most students three or four years ahead of her. The problem with such a child would be providing a sufficiently challenging curriculum.

“Is there anything she misses from her time? Other than the obvious.”

“She does look a lot like you,” he laughs a little. “And act like you in other ways.”

He sighs. “I think there’s so much it’s hard to give back to her. But she’s adjusting to here. I think she likes having a family, strange as we may be.”

“That’s kind of sad. Have you ever considered getting her into a more conventional school?” she asked.

Of course she was aware there would be potential issues. She’d probably know who the next sixty presidents would be and for a child, it might be tough to hide the urge to demonstrate her superior knowledge.

“It’s got to be tough for her to be without companions her own age.”

Mike shakes his head. “She’d feel more outcast than anything. I was considering sending her to a future earth school. Somewhere where she’s not too smart compared to the other kids but not close enough to home to potentially hurt her.”

He sighs. “Yeah... the dogs help. So does Skeets, but I wish there were more kids she could actually talk to.”

“I’m guessing you’ve talked to her about me as much you’ve talked to me about her,” she chided him gently, not wanting to add right now, though the omission rankled. “We’ll have to make some changes to your apartment to accommodate her, but for now she’s welcome to stay up here.”

Barbara paused, then asked, “Can I trust her with the secret of my control room? I mean, she’s met Rip, and I haven’t exactly been introduced yet.”

“I haven’t had a chance to talk to her much about anything in the 21st century,” he sighs. “Thank you.”

He nods in confirmation. “She has no one to tell that’d believe her. Well other than people who already know.”

She didn’t argue the point. The truth was, she enjoyed the work too much. It was far too easy to fall into a pit of databases and endless code. Twelve hours could pass almost unnoticed, the only sign of time passing in her control room the increasing staleness of coffee obtained from the percolator.

“Louder?” Barbara didn’t really notice the volume anymore, having spent most of her life in large cities. If anything, the quiet of the suburbs was unnerving on rare occasions she visited Wayne Manor. “No culture shock from the variation in technology? We must seem awfully primitive to her.

“Yeah, the tech is louder, and Michelle, Rip and I are louder than her foster family and she’s never had dogs before,” he laughs. He thought everything was quieter and less busy than his home, but Rani had come even further than him. “No, there’s lots of that, but all the stuff in the time lab is things she’d never thought of existing, and I think she delights in being smarter than everyone else.
