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

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
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

Oh, and 'Boot--will read your PM, get back to my story as soon as this "LMB Infinite Crisis" stuff gives me a second to breath

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

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 ). Square brackets indicate their in-comic codenames, where the codenames assigned in-story are original
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 Xiong ao - Jin is the surname, chinese name )
Covert Workforce:
Mano (real name unknown) Tellus (Grant Leo) 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)
Retro Reflex [Amp Girl] "Floating Fox-like Creature Boy" (No, that is not a joke ) 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?

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...
