Thank you, Reboot, for inspiring me to start posting to it again. You’ve really done a tremendous job keeping the thread alive after all this time, and you deserve a medal or something for that! I’m glad you started this Chat thread at my suggestion! People can post their comments here then, to keep the story from being disrupted. I just read the entire story again yesterday!

Now that I’m posting, I have tons and tons of ideas for the ‘Eye’ centric crew, and a few other characters introduced throughout the thread—can’t wait to post ‘em.

Reboot’s Workforce story is superb with brilliant parts all over it. His Spark is the most likeable I’ve ever seen her, and he writes McCauley unbelievably well, with tight characterization. You get a real sense that each character has a distinct personality from one another and their ‘real’ selves, although close enough to their real selves know that it’s them.

I’ve picked up the ‘Eye’ Centric team right where it left off, and am having some fun moving their story forward. I really like writing Blok and like the idea that he cured Mon of lead poisoning, instead of Brainy.

I hope IB gets some time to post his ideas too! Vee too! And Juan, if you ever get back into it, hop on in laugh

A few things:

People might notice I picked up Nemesis and Matter-Eater Lad and have added them to my story. Ideas were flowing fast and furious the last few days--I've got a much larger plot worked out for all those characters.

'Boot (&IB)--just thought of a really cool story for Gene/Leviathan for somewhere in the future. No specifics yet and it can wait for awhile, but I think it'll be a solid story.

And I'm still working, and still have ideas... part of my problem is that I have a horrible habit of working on bits out-of-sequence smile

Hallowe'en party post's about half done, which half includes most of the Plot Stuff, for want of a better term. Unless I add extra Plot Stuff I hadn't planned before I'm done, which wouldn't be unheard of smile

Y'know, given that it's only five/six lines or so (exc. quotes), it's not going to be worth the build-up smile

Just to avoid confusion, I thought a "dibs list" might be a good idea - i.e., for characters you're using or have plans for, so that no-one else does anything significant that might mess them up for you (avoiding the dreaded double-boot, etc smile ). Square brackets indicate their in-comic codenames, where the codenames assigned in-story are original smile

Public Workforce:

Andromeda (Laurel Gand, born Laurel Gander)
Spark (Eileeen "Ella" Raines)
Polarity (Paul Kline) [Magnetic Kid]
Reflecto (Steve Arnold)
Enrapture (Meta Ure, born Meta Corbett) [Esper Lass]
Ultraboy (José Rimbaud)
Dragonmage (Jin Xiongao - Jin is the surname, chinese name [Linked Image])

Covert Workforce:

Mano (real name unknown)
Tellus (Grant Leo EDIT: Gennadij Ryurikovich Harius [Геннадий Рюрикович Хариус])
Micro (Lachlan Murdoch)
Wolf (Brian Landon) [Timber Wolf]

Legionnaires:

Trinity (Lorna Durgo) Triad
Cosmic Boy (Rex Kline)
Tela (Irma Ardeen) [Saturn Girl] (shared with Cobalt)
Live Wire (Garth Raines)

Other:

Leonard McCauley
Blink (Clarice Ferguson)
Inferno (Sandy Anderson)
Gates (Tikhik Miraz)
Starboy (Tom Kallor)

For future reference:

Retro
Reflex [Amp Girl]
"Floating Fox-like Creature Boy" (No, that is not a joke smile )
Gear
Wildfire

I think that's all the recognisable characters I'm using or have plans for. iB, Cobalt, any objections? Plus, could you two do your own lists so that I don't mess things up for you? smile

No objections here, 'Boot. Also, this way we can interwork our own plans together, to have a more adherent continuity, without having to force it.

I'll break it down by name~21st Century codename

My squad in Europe/Asia, who at this point do not have codenames:
Princess Jacqeuline Projectra (Leader) ~ Sensor
Maziah bint Mordru bin Ahmad Al-Nayal~ White Witch
Tatiana Mallor ~ Umbra
Monius Elysius ~ Mon-El
Blok ~ Blok
Dirk Morgna ~ Flare
Ten Zil Kim ~ Matter-Eater Lad
Hasim Diyarbikar ~ Nemesis

Other Characters being used:
Mordru
Emerald Empress (easily can be shared--PM me)
Persuader (same as Empress)
Dark Circle
Nardo
Vykros
Kid Pyscho
Marla Latham
Dawnstar

Legionnaires
Tela (shared with Reboot) [Saturn Girl]
Spirit [Apparition/Phantom Girl]
Catalyst [Chemical King]
Valor [Karate Kid]
Shrinking Violet (shared with Invisible Brainiac)
Dreamer (shared with other writers)

Since we're all sharing the main Legion force in between big stories, I have long term plans lined up for some other Legionnaires, but none that I have the time for yet. The one that sticks out right now is Leviathan.

Some other surprises too... laugh

'Boot, just caught up to your posts. Wow, what a great Hallow'een party bit...you really convey so many characters so well.

And I have to admit that I'm biased on the next few posts...Reboot is getting to stuff we've been talking about in PMs for weeks smile . Now we're inter-relating our themes and subplots a bit and playing off each others characeters...great stuff!

Thanks. It took forever, but it was fun to do in the end smile

Yep.

I'm still not letting him use Andromeda though wink

Anyway, do we have a plan to make All Of LegionWorld read our work yet Cobalt?

Very nearly, belatedly done with the Workforce arc now, two years, four months and who-knows how many words after after Tikhik turned up and Andromeda was captured . The first of the four epilogues are up, and I'm hoping to have the fourth and final one done and posted, if not this week, certainly next. Reviews very welcome (including critical/negative, provided they go into more detail than "It sucks" or similar smile ).

And a thought, mostly for Cobalt and iB - what would you two say to doing an "Annual" thread at around the end of the year, with a couple of done-in-one stories and maybe some other Annual-y stuff? (I mention it now, because if you think it's a good idea, that leaves plenty of time to actually get the stuff done smile ). If not, obviously that's fine, just a thought smile

'Boot, can't wait to catch up on your final installments of this very excellent story arc you've crafted. As usual, I'm sure you're work will inspire me to get back into my own story.

As for your Annual idea, I think its a great idea! There's one story I've had in my mind for some time (which I've told you about), and I might have another one too that would be great to throw in there (as well as some other tidbits). Starting now (in August) is also a really good idea, b/c who knows how long we'll take to have things done. Cool idea!

IB, hope you see this in time!
