Fair enough, but didn't Blackfire later fake a invasion of her home world and try to sell her sister into slavery in the show? In the context of those actions saying Blackfire isn't a criminal or at least criminally inclined is a bit much.

Then again I suppose she hasn't done that yet and Paul does like showing criminals a better way so consider my objection withdrawn.

"You know Blackfire, I think you'll find there's a better way of dealing with your sister than trying to sell her into slavery."

"Oh?"

"Specifically, it's the way that involves your internal organs staying internal. Understand?"

"...yes."



Orange Paul: Offers criminals what they want if they stop commit crimes.

Red Paul: Offers to do things to criminals they don't want if they keep committing crimes.

Then, as per Captain Planet Rules, all seven of them will merge to create White Lantern Paul to defeat Black Lantern Paul at the climax.

By their powers' combined will the multiverse be saved!

"Aggh! This really hurts! Human bodies don't fit together like that!"

Or, that terrible moment when you realize you're getting a Voltron merger and not a Captain Planet one.

I did look it up. Maybe if you'd looked it up, you wouldn't be making random accusations about whom is assuming what.

You said it's a plural pronoun, which I took to mean 'it's NOT a singular pronoun.' I took offense to that.

(I realize my side's only evidence is anecdotal, but hey, you work with what you've got.)

-sigh- Oh whatever. Someone's wrong on the internet, happens all the time. At least you aren't insisting certain people should (insert fatal action) just because they exist.

That's something I can sleep on, it is.

Uh, what? I am confused. Why the sudden Red Paul? Are you gonna write all nine then? Or just some? Or what?

In order to have a renegade, you have to have at least a potential Paragon to contrast them with. Red is a hard color to Paragon with.

Is it just me, or does that guy look kinda sorta like male Raven for some reason?

It's really more:

We appear on Ysmalt, the Red Lanterns Zilius Zox and Skallox turning to look at Komand'r and I. I grin. "Guys, guys, you'll never guess what Komand'r just told me!"

Zilius raises an eyeridge. "What?"

Komand'r hesitates for a moment, then pushes on. "I.. come from a region of space full of pirates but that doesn't have a Green Lantern?"

Zilius boggles for a moment, then high threes me. "SCORE!"

My ring burns red with anger's might

nice "hand burns red" reference there. I love the first two lines but not the rest

how about:
My ring burns red with anger's might
As darkness flees before my light
Begone you wicked from my sight
Or be destroyed with all my might

Or be destroyed as is right maybe? not sure about that one.

or
Beware despoilers of all that is right
My ring burns red with anger's might
As darkness flees before my light
Wrongs resolved under my sight

Lantern Zoat, making the best of a bad situation.

Is 'reasonable mode' an actual Ring setting? Seems like a useful feature.

Technically different.
The best kind of different.

Sorry, should probably clarify:
2 Sororicide
2 Mayday
2 Bereave
1 Something with the blue guy, can't remember what I called it
1 It's all a computer game.

Sadly, they were written by a parallel universe version of me and as such I have no access to them.

Apparently, they were awesome.

…yet more reason for me to complete that Sliding drive. All the Zoat stories shall be mine!
 
Hmm . . . On the one hand, I don't really care for the Red Lanterns. I just think they're the least interesting of the bunch. On the other hand, Teen Titans is pretty cool and this involves the good version of that show. Not that Go! abomination.

*shrug* There's at the very least one more update with Red Paul. We'll see if the next glimpse wins me over.

I don't even think that's necessary. Black Lantern Paul would probably go about escorting people to their afterlives.

Not how it works. Unless OL gets a bullshit SI black power ring, Black Lantern Paul ISN'T Paul. He's a manifestation of the evils of the black light through the lens of Paul.

He'd be terrifying. Genre savvy with that kind of motive leads to a destroyed world.

"Oh, you think they're police officers, do you Mister Grayson?" I stare him down, eyes wide and probably a little manic. "Really? Let's just.. let's just check that, shall we?" I raise my right hand to my right ear. "Ring, give me the non-emergency number for the Jump City Police Department, would you?"

She hangs up, and I lower my ring. "Turns out, they don't! Who'd have thought, hey?"

"They're not local police, they-!"

"Oh, they're FBI, are they? Shall I phone Washington and check?"

"Yes, in a region of space that's about… Ahh…" I point out in the approximate direction of their homeworld. "About seven thousand light years that way! You are totally beyond your authority! Did you think I didn't have a stellar map?"

"I'm saying that while you can make arrests thanks to Batman's deal with the local police, and while I can make arrests under the same United Nations Security Council resolution which authorises Lantern Stewart to operate on Earth,-" They probably only meant it to apply to Green Lanterns, but the text doesn't actually specify a colour. "-they have no authority to make arrests here. This, was a kidnapping attempt." I float closer to my prisoner. "The Brotherhood of Zvort are usually quite well regulated. Tell me, did you make any effort at all to secure an extradition warrant? You know, like you're contractually obliged to?"

Mr Zoat said:
"You didn't, did you? What was the discussion like? 'Oh, it's just some primitive place. Might as well just fly in, grab whoever we want and leave again, it's not like anyone there can stop us.'" I float closer to hir. "Well done for picking up the wrong woman, by the way. Do all Tamaranians look alike to you? Was an identity scan really too much like hard work you lackadaisical fuckwit?"

I pull back slightly. "I'm remanding you both in custody for assault, kidnapping, criminal damage, and such other offences as may be revealed by a full investigation. Your equipment will be impounded to be returned to you either when you are found 'not guilty' or at the conclusion of your term of imprisonment." I subspace the remains of their flying platform before tearing the armour from their bodies. They look a good deal smaller without it. "I will also be forwarding an official complaint to the Grandmaster of the Brotherhood of Zvort, which will with any luck result in disciplinary action being taken against you at the conclusion of your sentence."

"Was accused of stealing, Mister Grayson. She has not been convicted. And if their guild ever sorts out an extradition treaty with Earth or with the United States of America, she may in the fullness of time face trial for it. In the mean time-" I turn to Komand'r, eyebrows slightly raised. "-dare I express the hope that you have not committed any crimes during your stay on Earth?"

"If you wish to register a formal complaint about my conduct, travel to Ysmault, request and complete form seven zero one b and then prove your worth by defeating Senior Lantern Kultonius in single combat. Then submit the form as directed." I nod. "Farewell."

Oh, I get it now! He's a bureaucrat.
 
Well, that was interesting. I wonder what prompted this, and how long it take for Red Lantern Paul to meet Pavlos or Gravyen
