Simple premise. Name two Legionnaires and the next person gets to cite some relationship or incident that involved them. Then they can pick the next pair.
It ISN'T a guessing game where you try to stump everybody with an obscure meeting or the like. The fun is just trying to recall some connection or incident involving the two Legionnaires.
You can use any version of the Legionnaire in your answer, i.e Phantom Girl could be cited for Apparition, or say Valor or M'onel for Mon-el.
You want to avoid picking two Legionnaires that obviously didn't appear together, like say Gates and Quislet. Best probably to not use villains because of their limited use. Pairs can be repeated at anytime.
Some examples: say it's "Brainiac 5 and Sun Boy." You could cite the great scene at the start of Adv 343 (Luck Lords) where these two crash a rocket ship. Or else when they, along with Supergirl, went after Ontir and attacked the Dark Circle in Tales of the Legion.
For "Duo Damsel and Phantom Girl" you could mention that Violet once said that those two were close friends but that neither were close with her.
For "Phantom Girl and Colossal Boy," there's that volleyball game in V2 # 286 where they got into a spat, or the resentment PG had against Gim after he roughed up Jo in Starlin's SB 239
Anything that works. Whatever "connection" you can recall.
Should a few days pass and no one posts, either the last poster or I can start a new pair.
But I get to start now!

The classic scene in The Legion #1 where Cham asks M'onel what happened to the legion while they were gone and Lar replies "I think they just came back".

Sun Boy and Saturn Girl were two of the group that participated in Lightning Lad's revival and were willing to give their lives to revive him. Sun Boy said he was Garth's best friend, and of course Imra was his girlfriend.

Jo mourning the loss of Tinya, after she'd been killed during the White Triangle invasion, and others saying something to the effect of, "Well, at least we only lost one!" as Violet showed up to announce that there was one other (Andromeda) who needed to be mourned.

Tinya smiling as she says to Cos "all these years I've known you, and only now you're a tease?" after he hints about future changes he has in store for the Legion.

Wildfire and Lightning - Lightning Lad replaced Wildfire as Leader, even though Wildfire campaigned strongly to be re-elected. (SB 247.)

Boy with UP, I mentioned you could substitute different era versions back in my first post:
"You can use any version of the Legionnaire in your answer, i.e Phantom Girl could be cited for Apparition, or say Valor or M'onel for Mon-el."
Again, whatever works. I would suggest after seeing a few posts so far, if you can remember the issue number (pretty darn hard sometimes!) go ahead and add it for everybody trying to remember where it was.

Lot's of possibilities in this pair up, but I recall Saturn Girl crying after implanting the suggestion in Superboy's mind to NOT return to the 30th Century.

When Sun Boy lost his power and had to resign in Adv 302, it was Bouncing Boy who showed up apologetically at his door asking for his (I believe) flying belt.
