Well i can always HOPE this iteration hasn't been boning women hundreds of years younger than him

OK, I first want to make it clear that I know nothing about this character. He could very well be a pedo in canon. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with having sex with women hundreds of years younger than him, as long as those women are over the age of 18 (which I don't know if they were in canon, as I know nothing about this character). If a 200 year old wants to have sex with a 19 year old, or a 300 year old wants to have sex with an 80 year old, there's nothing wrong with that because everyone involved is over 18.

Linkstore · Jan 17, 2018

In fact, since the critical reason why informed consent can only be given by people over 18 is simply because they've experienced life enough by that point to know what's what, the person at a disadvantage in this context might be the older party - Since he was raised in a society much different from this one, he might have misconceptions about the meaning of one's actions.

effect. In this context, affect is a verb whilst effect is a noun.

You only get one chance to make a first impression old man...and you just blew it. I already don't like you. I'm going to slot this up with "No man should have this power" with shit that just annoys me.

Not a good one? Not a good one?! You're basing this one what exactly? Are you blaming them for all the super powered maniacs trying to kill people?

Gah...dumb ass sit on your ass and try to act all wise....

Doesn't she eat souls?

This was also a good point for Paul to say, "My eventual end goal is to bootstrap humanity into finding their own power in the cosmos such that none ever need rely on gods or fall subject to the very fears you espouse."

Regardless of who his next candidate is Paul should open up with the fact that they don't have to worry about John Constantine ever joining the Justice League.

Paul: ... But, silver lining, you won't have to deal with John Constantine if you join the Justice League. He's got no connection to the League, and no fans on the League.

Maxx Crowley · Jan 17, 2018

Honestly, I'm a little surprised that Paul sped off to talk to some random wizard before any of his friends. Maybe they just aren't as tight an ingroup in his mind anymore.

RichardWhereat · Jan 17, 2018

Yes, that. But there's also the option of Paul wanting to get in with Batman again, so he can go straight back to the mountain without worries that Batman will hate him.

But yeah, if I was coming back, I'd be doing it in an Intrepid Class vessel, and I'd be arriving in the Sol System by sending out a trolling signal to SETI, and then straffing the planet with Hooked on a Feeling blasting out the speakers as I land in Happy Harbour.

Huh, someone Paul can give dating advice to.

Ice fortress. That's still locked up in some sort of subspace pocket here isn't it? Is that going to get an upgrade or just be Paul's evil lair?

Meh...the hatred of one little baseline human is hardly worth being trouble over. Pretty much everyone on the team is more powerful then Batman, and keeping things good with them seems a lot more personally important. Between them and the OLC, Paul has about all the back up he could ever need. Plus...if Batman somehow injures Kon, he's going to have a Amazon army parking shop up his bat-hole.

And please, if Paul needs a starship, there is clearly only one choice.

The USS Ben Sisko's muthafuckin' pimp hand is all you really need. A pile of guns strapped to an engine that can turn invisible? Just give it up a couple of orange touch ups and you're good to go.

Let someone else break the news.

RichardWhereat · Jan 17, 2018

The USS Defiant is only four decks and about fifty metres. It wouldn't hold over a decently sized crew for a sufficient length of time. They're not good enough for diplomatic ventures, or any real exploration on their own.

No no. It has to be the 'ESS Anima mea', an Intrepid Class. Stocked for recreation as well as engineering, research, and civilian uses.

With Batman, it's not about fighting him, or having to. He's moved beyond most of the Physiological needs, and the Safety needs, and is trying to fulfil the Love and Esteem needs by rebuilding that relationship.

Maxx Crowley · Jan 17, 2018

RichardWhereat said:

I...never saw his and Batman's relationship in quite that manner.

RichardWhereat said:

He has a power ring for all that. He needs a ship to hold his more squishy, less space capable, friends. One that can blow the crap out of anything that they need it to.

Also 5 decks, not 4.

finbikkifin · Jan 17, 2018

If he for whatever reason wants a Star Trek ship, it should damn well be an orange Constitution. Tech level is arbitrary, anyway.

But that's not a B5 ship.

RichardWhereat · Jan 17, 2018

And if his wants wane at any point while he's carrying a hundred martians to earth, or a hundred scientists to mars?

No. Better to have a large enough vessel, with a skilled crew to sail her, and clear winds to sail her by, than just always flying by ring. And he gets to be Captain Picard, exploring with friends.

EDIT: Nah, the constitution classes are fugly. Hellsbells, most of the Star Trek Federation ships are terrible designs. Better to have one of the prettier ones like a Nova Class, or an Intrepid. Especially for a first ship.

Moar EDIT: The Dakota, Luna, Discovery, Avenger, Vanguard, Emmissary, and Stargazer classes are nice too. The Rapier class looks like a rhoomba, but it's cool.

Paul isn't French. Why would he want to seek out strange, new life...and then surrender to it? (Seriously, watch the first seasons)

No...Paul and co. need something with some balls. Something that can tear through Reach ships and such. Something that he can look to his screen and say. "Commander Kon? Prepare a class 5 atomic torpedo...and write on it, don't fuck with The Paul" *thud* "I'm okay!"

RichardWhereat · Jan 17, 2018

I'm not talking about an Orange Lantern Corps ship. I'm talking about an Earth Star Ship. For exploring our star system, neighbouring systems, travelling between Earth and Mars, and going to Thanagar as well as any other peaceful neighbouring spacefaring civilisation.

For the OLC, he should just fuck everything else, and go for an Executor-Class Star Dreadnought.

150 meters actually. The crew of 50 is small by Trek standards, but you can fit a surprising amount of people in there if you cram em in like on a submarine.

NSEA Protector. Complete with Omega-13, I'm sure he can whip up some bizarre thing to stand in for it, but perhaps without the chompers.

RichardWhereat · Jan 17, 2018

Galaxy Classes look shit. Most of the Star Trek ships with their nacelles sticking out look shit. That's why I pointed at the Intrepid, and other differently designed classes.
