[greenguardian]

Oh, mun.

Let's find out more about me first, before you start looking for a home for me, alright?

Three issues in, and I only just received my powers. Give it some time. I promise, I'll be ready when you're ready.

[squeak_squeaker]

You look just like a spinach puff superhero! [Kronk liked it. But then, he REALLY liked spinach puffs.]

[greenguardian]

Yeah...I think that's what happens when you let a magical green talking flame dress you.

[Man, he hopes spinach puff doesn't end up being his embarrassing superhero nickname.]

[squeak_squeaker]

Oh... yeah. Magical green talking flame!

[Slow blink.] I got dressed by a witch. Not AS a witch though... I dunno what I'm supposed to be. [Spinach puff was a great superhero nickname! Anything Kronk thought of was instantly stupid amazing.]

[greenguardian]

A witch? [Not that this is weird for him. He's from a world where the three greatest heroes were an Amazon princess, an alien survivor, and a man with deep mental issues who ran around dressed up as a giant bat. Well, okay. Maybe it was a little weird.] Does she...dress you up on a regular basis?

[squeak_squeaker]

[Yzma was definitely the strangest thing they had back home! It all made sense once you saw what she looked like.]

All the time! And herself too, but she's got way more clothes than me. [Kronk himself didn't really care for fashion, but Yzma insisted that he looked good at all times. This was apparently 'good' in her eyes, the hat included.]

[greenguardian]

[It was certainly an...interesting hat. Though he was certainly glad that the sentient flame hadn't conjured up one like that for him.]

Well. Let it be said that your witch certainly has an interesting sense of style.

[squeak_squeaker]

[It wasn't easy to pull off! Kronk's entire get-up was a little ... different.]

Thanks! I'll...uh. I'll tell her. Yzma really likes compliments. I like your clothes too!

I sure wonder how that'd look on me, pants.

[greenguardian]

[Not that Alan's outfit was all that normal, all things considered.]

Thank you. I'm still getting used to it. I'm generally more comfortable in jeans and a button down shirt.

[Alan looks down at his ring and then back at Kronk.] We could always find out how pants would look on you.

[squeak_squeaker]

Buttons are confusing... and they kinda look like gumdrops! [Today's lesson on buttons is brought to you by Kronk's brain.]

REALLY? [Kronk couldn't help but flail his big arms a little. He'd been curious about pants ever since he first talked to someone who wore pants. It fascinated him! How did those people make a pee?]

[emeraldcrusader]

Happens to the best of us, you know.

[greenguardian]

[There is a very long stare at the other Lantern.]

Well. This is unexpected.

[emeraldcrusader]

[Hal just kind of stares back, but he knows who you are!]

Expect the unexpected, right? Though I didn't expect to see you around here, Alan.

[greenguardian]

[Alan reaches up to make sure his mask is in place. It is. Then, how...?]

Usually, yes. Though sometimes, it's difficult to know what exactly to expect.

I'm sorry. Do I know you?

[emeraldcrusader]

[Hal would do the same thing. Though not in mockery, but perhaps to prove that he is what he is also.]

Kind of obvious that you don't if you have to ask, isn't it? Don't worry, I'm used to the different "versions" of people around here.

Green Lantern of Sector 2814. Point one. Since there are four of us. I could tell you what to expect but with the recent... well, let's not go there. I don't want to overwhelm you too much.

[greenguardian]

True. It's just that I met many people in my day job, and there's always the possibility of a forgoteen face.

I'm sorry. I need you to...hold on a second. [This needs a lot of wrapping his head around.]Different versions? Sector 2814? Point one?

Four Green Lanterns? That bright green talking flame had made it seem like there was only myself.

[emeraldcrusader]

That's right, there's only one of you despite having the Green Lantern name being shared by about, oh, say three thousand six hundred others across the universe.

Sector 2814 is just a part of the universe I'm responsible for (which is where Earth is), along with the three others, but that's debatable.

[Yeah, time for a subject change!]

What exactly do you do? As far as your day job is concerned, that is.

[greenguardian]

...

[There's a small chance that Alan needs something to fight back a headache.]

I'm the head of a broadcasting and production company. Maybe you've heard of it? [After all, if he somehow knows Alan...] Gotham Broadcasting Company. GBC.

[dark_not_evil]

[This is just a little awkward.]

The muns don't usually listen to us.

At least yours waited three issues. I've heard of others who pick people up from sneak previews alone.

[greenguardian]

[Awkward? This? Noooo. Well. Not for Alan at any rate. Yet.]

My mun was ready and waiting since my introduction.

And at that point, nothing...important...was known about me yet.

I'm surprised he lasted this long.

[dark_not_evil]

Important?

These muns are an impatient lot. Be careful yours doesn't decide to throw you into memes before trying to find a home.

[greenguardian]

An announcement that was made about me.

Which the mun had expected for a little while, actually.

I've held him back from a few memes. He's...a persistent fellow.

[dark_not_evil]

I think I know the announcement you mean. My mun excepted it too even if he wasn't entirely pleased with it.

[A short laugh.] That's something else they all seem to have in common.

[greenguardian]

Yep. That was the announcement.

My mun wasn't all too pleased with it, but given some other changes, he'd expected it.

[dark_not_evil]

Most of the changes have made my mun rather...irritated.

This announcement annoyed him because it means I don't get to exist in your universe now.

[greenguardian]

Oh, mine too.

He's trying to give this one a chance, honestly.
