"The process is slow enough that I'll escape this reality before it becomes a problem. The important part is that I got Father Box back."How in the world would you think it's a good idea to New God a potential reality warper?

No, but there are a few subtle changes in his behaviour.Aww. I was hoping we'd get an update or two with Renegade grappling with the Grayven part of him and trying to escape the Source Wall.
Was it this part?
Like he doesn't remember he's in a fictional universe."Because it was foul. Pressing against my soul, trying to make me not-be." I never really understood how 'equation equal reality' worked. The universe doesn't break if you write '2+2=7' but that thing was spouting… I frown. Something about… Not being a person? Huh. I can't… Clearly remember. I suppose I got off lightly there.
"apparent normalcy of physical laws"However, given the apparently normalcy of the physical laws it seems unlikely.

No, you were ninja'd by Avernus.
I think it was how he effortlessly thought Darkseid 50 instead of Father 50.Was it this part?

When he fixes the damage I would think that an instinctive HATE of the Anti-Life equation would become almost second-nature to her, if only as a result of her survival instinct kicking into overdrive to avoid Anti-Life exposure at all costs.Funny thought: Would Ace mainlining the Anti-Life Equation for an arbitrarily long period of time impact what sort of New God she becomes? Just because Scott can fix the damage doesn't necessarily mean he can remove the scars, after all.
She was never on his side, so it wasn't actually betrayal.Hmm, going by this betrayal Barda is clearly the Token Evil Teammate.
I really don't get why people use that as the go to petty evil for the gods of Apokolips. They don't kick puppies there. Anymore. That's how Granny Goodness got promoted to godhood.She was never on his side, so it wasn't actually betrayal.
Although I find the idea of her deciding that's true amusing, since she knows what really over the top evil is like but not "token evil". I picture her trying to play the "token evil" role earnestly but not quite getting it right, the way she tries to do housewife-stuff (ie, cooking in full armor with an apron).
"This is what Earth people call a 'puppy', yes?"
"Um, it is."
"I fail to see the appeal of kicking them, but if that's what I am supposed to -"
"No! no! It's just a phrase!"
Those quotation marks are unneeded.it is impossible to say." I nod and keep looking around. "Assuming a random

She's under-ten, and the rate of Godhood is kinda slow.Grayven. Renegade. Whoever you are now.

"She followed me home, can I keep her?"Though that suggestion about her following RenPaul back to his parallel is very funny, and would work as well.

Please forgive me, the temptation is strong and I am weak.
...anti-anti-life sounds like it'd be good for what ALEs ya.
Kyle wasn't exactly all that silly as a rainbow ring slinger.Careful, the Anti-Death Equation is equally bad news, although the life equation seems safe enough, but since it's all the lantern colors (barring black) working in concert, I'd say Grayven is 6 rings away from mastering it.
Although now I'm imagining Grayven as the Rainbow Lantern.
And there's a case of someone clearly just messing with an established concept by flipping the name polarity on one word. What's next, a pro-... Actually, that sounds like somewhere I shouldn't go in random conversation.Careful, the Anti-Death Equation is equally bad news, although the life equation seems safe enough, but since it's all the lantern colors (barring black) working in concert, I'd say Grayven is 6 rings away from mastering it.

Oh dear. Then again, I did just voluntarily leave the Earth. My cause was just, but if Gaea didn't count coming to Earth 50 as 'leaving Earth voluntarily' then this will certainly set it off. Irritating, but hardly disastrous. Okay. No Father Box means no boom tube until I can build one. Building one with a power ring and personal lantern is more a matter of time than…
"SHADE were going to use a piece of the Anti-Life Equation to Justify the citizens of Earth! They're probably still got what they need to establish some sort of spirit-crushing network. Batman was dealing with it when I left. I need to get back and make sure they don't try again. Barda, please. I don't want to fight you." Ring, plot course.
"But I'm going to need Father Box's aid." I hold out my right hand to Barda. "if you wouldn't mind?"

Thank you, corrected.
