No pressure, Chuck. I just wanted you to know that there will be jump-on points as we go and that the door's not closed for any potential contributors. I mean, there's the core story with the Fellowship, but there's a lot going on in the U.P. at the same time that anyone can run wild with! You'll see what I mean as you go...

It is really good story-telling, Exxnihil. I'm tired because of Finals, so I like to read stuff like that to escape.

Thanks, guys, I'm having a ball writing it.
By the by, Faraway, I actually owe you some belated compliments on a story you wrote ages ago. When I started doing the Wiki entries for the Primary Color Gang characters, there was a gap during the Yahoo board days that I filled by means of the PCG/LMB Superpets story you wrote.
Great stuff... did you ever finish that one?

Wow I'd forgotten about that one, the Bowl of Outcault, I'll have to see if I can find that one on an old hard drive. I don’t think I ever finished it. May be a project for old times’ sake?
Wonder if people ever picked up on the name.

And I just caught up on both "Novella" and "Mobius" both are fantastic so far.
Just a note Tony, I've thought up two different storylines to add to "Novella" but I need Nighty, K.P. & S.G.'s permission to use their characters for one and Emily's help with the other, stand by...

I'm glad you've enjoyed it, Chuck, especially enough to be inspired to contribute! We wanted you in on the ground floor, but you were kinda on sabbatical/really busy at the time. Can't wait to see what you've come up with...

Still debating which way to go with the idea but what would happen if the LW Founders (other than Crujecki) decided it was time for them to take a hand in things? And what if they didn't agree with what Cobie and Lardy were doing?

I think it is a very good question to ask, one I have been asking myself. There are rules about going to war with foreign nations, this story reminds me of Mr. Fantastic's takeover of Latveria.

Well, as you saw, Cobie has secured the full support of the United Planets (on purpose to combat those accusations). Rocky being there, as LMB leader, sanctions it as as LMB mission so theyre fine in terms of the LMB organization, though many members may not like it. You can see Cobie considered these things previously in his "planning".
The founders are interesting because they couldn't do anything in terms of the LMB even though their opinions carry a lot of weight. They might take issue with Cobie and Lardy potentially bringing trouble to LW.
I've always played it as if Nighty and Lightning Lad are actively in the know as to Cobies activities (as hinted at in Omnia). Cobie is the LW founder's proxy for security office issues. But it hasn't really been a topic discussed before.
Certainly, no one has really ever called out either of them on their shady activities (which are separate and not the same topic). Though we got a hint of it with Lardy at the beginning of the Novella.
Readers may notice Cobie has never once apologized for his actions or ever indicated he thinks he's anything but squarely in the right.
