Beyond giving us asylum...do you mean you're ready and willing to fight with us? Des and I are very powerful, but we need as many heroes in this as we can get! Most of the LMB is against us, and the bad guys are against us as well...
<gestures toward Cobalt>
...it looks like we're gonna need to make his RMB the real deal!
<looks at Rocky>
Are you ready to be a Rebel? And if so, do you know anyone else who can throw in with us?

I may eschew violence whenever I can, but that doesn't mean I can't fight when I need to. Everyone always forgets that. I'm no slouch, Lardy. Freezing things is just the beginning. And remember, my powers are magic-based. That might come in handy against a certain Daxamite.
And I know you can count on Time Teller Lad as well, and even Hyvvie the Wonder Beagle and Old Dutch the Super-Cow! Okay, maybe not Old Dutch, unless it's an absolute emergency, but she'll pitch in if need be!

<wakes up quietly the next morning, for the first time in months after waking up>
(Hm...must have just passed out last night...helluva a last few days)
<notices bandages, and obvious medical treatment overnight>
Rocky's doctors must have seen to my wounds...from assassination attempts to fighting a certain ass-kicking Daxamite. I actually feel pretty good--not 100%, but close enough.
<walks downstairs>
Hopefully Lardy is getting some rest too. He seemed so reinvigorated last night. To be honest, I'm feeling the same way! I know we have some other allies that can help us...hopefully Jailbait Lass can meet us here if someone can get word to her. Because rested we may be but now there's work to be done.
<grabs cup of coffee>
Man, it feels good to have Lardy 'back'. <looks at painting on the wall of Rockhopper Lad addressing his loyal subjects> I think I know who to thank too...

Good morning, Cobie. I see you're doing better. I'm glad to see it. I'm also glad to see you and Lardy have made up. It was so hard to see you two at odds.
<Pours himself some coffee also>
Lardy should be along soon. I guess we need to figure out what our best course of action is.

Lardy, don't even joke about such things. Breakfast should be ready in a few minutes. Oh, I hope the staff laundered your robe properly. I still feel bad about that time they starched your underwear. Linens, they're used to; clothing, not so much.

Yeah, the robe feels great, Rocky. Still can't believe you've had all of that clothing and linen made for me.
<turns to Cobalt>
Des, you're looking at the core of our honest-to-gods RMB! You said we need recruits--Rocky and Tim (and Hyvvie) are in, and I'm sure we can count on Lolita.
Any ideas who else may help us out here? My best possibilities are Triple G, Ex and Sharky. Neither's a cert for sure, but I think they're candidates.
Think about some others you could swing...Crujeckie? Matlock? Other Security Officers still loyal to you?
<back to Rocky>
So...do they know we're here, yet? Any political pressure coming down?

None yet, but I expect it any time. Not from Legion World itself--I spoke with Nightcrawler and he--well he rolled his eyes and said he trusted my judgement--but from some folks in the LMB--particularly the Security Office. My Wee Fem, Space Ranger and Everyday Girl are none too happy with us. I feel really bad about the Ranger. I always admired him so much, but the lines have been drawn and I stand with you and Cobie. <Strokes Lardy's shoulders> You guys have been there for me.

Honestly, Rocky...I'm not seeing how we've "been there" for ya. Seems all I in particular have done is make your life difficult and overly complicated!

Oh, you're right. I was thinking of Ram Boy and Lad Boy.
Kidding.
Lardy, I won't say that you've been the most stable presence in my life, but when I've really needed you, you've never let me down.
And I've needed to be needed. I've mourned for Opnely Gay Lad--for Blaine--far longer than we were even together. I guess I've needed people to help take care of. Tim and--and Clive--both needed someone older and more experienced to be a mentor and friend. I think I've done pretty well with Tim and, Dywh knows, I tried with Clive. I took care of him when I thought you were gone because I knew you would want me to look after him. I'm sorry I didn't do a better job.
<Sighs> Don't feel bad about anything, Lardy. If my life is difficult and overly complicated, it's because I want it to be.

Outside the Rookery an unusual yellow glow begins to form. A swirling twisting spinning tornado of light swiftly grows in intensity to a blinding flash and just as quickly slows back into the nothingness it came from leaving a bald headed man wearing a gold ring and a long yellow monks robe standing in front of the entrance.

I've been a little worried about the guys. I know they hang out here sometimes, they're your friends Rocky. I wanted to see if you could help me find where they've gone. Look man I'll level with you, you're a young Legionnaire and your insight could be a big help. I'm afraid the Security Office might be out of control. aI'm very afraid they have their own agenda running and that can't be good.
