What am I doing

[lordofjustice]

You seem like you're new at this, so let me give you a piece of advice: stop it. Now. Before I lose my temper. There is far too much still to do for me to waste time here.

Re: omai. Well.

Ahh, alternate universe Big Blue. Gotcha. Sooo, which one. Mirror-verse, alternate timeline, Orwellian universe...

...It's totally that last one isn't it?

[lordofjustice]

You jumped to that conclusion pretty quickly. Any real reason why?

[arach_nerd]

Eh, I know how my mun thinks and if he's not tossing me up against someone who's obviously the same person I know or close to it, it's probably something horrible.

Ultraman would've probably tried to kill me straight off the bat, so next horrible AU on the list that wouldn't have some sort of obvious stereotypical clue would be the Orwell-esque universe.

Plus he does this whole little snicker when I guess the terrible thing he knows right.

[lordofjustice]

Well, in this case I'd say you're wrong. The Justice Lords exist to protect the people, and we do a very good job of it, just like always.

[arach_nerd]

The fact that you're calling yourself a Lord isn't exactly the way to get me to believe that statement pal.

[lordofjustice]

I don't see why. That's been the name of the group, all the way back to the beginning.

We have the power, and its our job to set the examples.

[arach_nerd]

You ever think that setting yourself up to be looked upon as a ruler might not be such a great idea?

[lordofjustice]

I would say we're more babysitters than rulers, and only that because we finally graduated from maids. But if people think that and it helps keep the peace, I suppose there's no harm.

[arach_nerd]

The more you talk, the more my belief that there's some kinda Utopian-style dystopia goin on around here.

What's next Kal? Putting the world in a bottle? Worked so well for Kandor.

[lordofjustice]

[He frowns a little, puzzled.]

What are you talking about? Krypton was destroyed decades ago.

[arach_nerd]

Huh. Guess Brainiac never shrunk Kandor in your universe. Ignore what I just said then.

...What does Lois think about all of it?

[lordofjustice]

... Braniac did a lot of things. But I've never known him to preserve anything but knowledge.

Lois, and the rest of the world, are safer than they have ever been. They all know that.

[arach_nerd]

Trapped like a canary in a cage. Gotcha.

[lordofjustice]

She has guards, yes, but they're for her safety, that's all.

[arach_nerd]

If Lois wanted to be safe, I'm pretty sure she wouldnt've become an investigative reporter.

[lordofjustice]

That doesn't change the fact that she kept on almost getting herself killed.

[arach_nerd]

Hey, she managed to keep herself alive long before you showed up. The only reason things got more dangerous for her was because you kept hitting on her in costume.
