Vital Information: A Matter-Eater Lad fanfic
Since no one said anything in Critic's Corner, I decided to post a new topic.
This is Vital Information For Your Everyday Life, a fanfic starring 'toon Matter-Eater Lad, based on the skit from All That, in a TV show where he dishes out information for your everyday lives.
You learn about the bizarre Kem family, why you should never call Phantom Girl fat, Lightning Lad's dark secret, Tenzil's hatred for Chuck Norris, one guy who won't shut up, and a look at a Harley & Ivy musical number! You were warned.
Warning: Vital Information is not for pregnant women and elderly people, nor should people taking anti-depressants be exposed to it and you should not feed it after midnight.
Plot: A Legion story set during 1930s America. Three revamped dark fairy tales, revolving around Cosmic King, Saturn Queen, and Lightning Lord, and their counterparts Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, and Lightning Lad. The first story, the Lantern, has been completed, and no, it doesn't have to do with you-know-who. I'm stuck on the second one at the moment though.

As a major Tenzil fan, I *had* to read this! Very cute!
My favorite line?
It was this: "Listen carefully. Cabana. Cabana Havana. Cabana Havana banana. Cabana Havana banana manana. Cabana Havana banana manana pajamas. I'm in my cabana in Havana eating a banana in manana in pajamas. Hurts doesn't it?"
If you liked Vital Info, you'll love this sequel! When the show gets cancelled, the dead revolt on Tartarus, and now it's up to a ragtag team of miscreants to save the day!
It's the return of Styx, Stiletta, Policy Pam, Spaceopoly Lad, and Echo-Chamber Chet! With special appearance by the Red Guy!
Set
There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

Yera as an arabic torch-singer in a speakeasy was inspired.
I wondered, at certain points, if this particular story might have been stronger without the Legion connection, 'though.

Y'know, Saturn with the super-short hair bears an eerie resemblance to Alan Moore's Miraclewoman-- but maybe that's not a bad thing. When you think about it, a person who can scan your brain to see what you bought at the liquor store and then drive you insane if she doesn't approve of your vodka choices is... uh, pretty scary/formidable.
SK's link reminds me: Anyone else annoyed at the founders as love triangle ? I always am. [sulk]
