His tone was unsteady, but Red Arrow was used to this sort of tone. It was of genuine remorse, the type her adoptive father used when refering to his life of crime.
She replied, "The Thunderbolts was formed by villains who wanted to trick the world. It turned into a team of genuine reform, despite the actions of some. Now it's a place filled with the children of villains and heroes. I trust you at this moment Sir Roy, because I believe everyone serves good, even if it's unwillingly."

Look, guys, I know I've been buried in bureaucracy for the past month (I see now why Cobalt REALLY walked away! ), but I've been monitoring my Omnicom for updates from you two that just have not been coming!
I need an update, STAT! If you've got nothing, then bring Jose in on the investigation. I've a feeling he could be useful.
Chief out.

<to Jose> Sorry, Jose...you're not 'chief of the detectives of security'. That's not what I meant. I know you're all all over this place and know it better than anyone. I know if anyone saw anything suspicious, anything out of order--it would most likely be you.
Talk to Roy and Arrow about that night. See if there's anything the three of you can come up with.
Comprende, Jose, mi amigo?

Yes Your Chiefliness, I, jose jimenenenez, understand this quite very perfecto. You are be wanting to test my very highly developing detectivibg skills before you make the appointment to "chief of the detectives of the security force" el permenente!
So now I must inform you of the very strange and not right goings on which are be happening right under your rather prominente proboscus here at the office of the security!
Uno, first and hindmost! I think that shiney light ball in the foyer is alive! I know you gonna scoff your nose at ol jose... but I gots the proof! See these pictures? See what she's doing to that Enraged Bull hombre? I'd be enraged also if a shiney light ball was hangin there and doing that, you know what I mean Chief?
And that Everywhichway Girl and that New Medico, Archie? They was setting up some pretty fancy equipment right under you office. And she was trying to set up something else too... but he wasn't having any of it. Now you know that's not right. Pretty little seniorita like that and that pretty boy is... he must be one of them happy hombres.
That's all I got for you today your chiefness... But I get you something better tomorrow, you'll see.
-------------------- Soon, Legion World, Soon your time will end.

<Rocky storms into the Security Office> All right, Lardy! What's the meaning of this ticket?
Please refer to Ordinance 12-B-II Section A: <clicks Omnicon> "Exceptions are always made for statues representing The Legendary Poster, Cobalt Kid and The Most Beloved of All Posters, Lash Lad. There can never be too many gigantic monuments to Cobalt Kid and Lash Lad on Legion World."
There it is. It was perfectly legal! Even if it weren't, Lash has overturned it on his authority as Deputy Leader! Not to mention the fact that the Rookery has the status of an embassy where you have no real authority. So why the ticket?

Oh yeah, Section A was repealed earlier this month...by me. If you installed your updates like you should have, you would know this.
I can't do anything about pre-existing statues, but I'm well within my Head of Security powers to update certain ordinances without review as I see fit.
So, my good prince, the statue was not perfectly legal. We'll expect your fine paid in full by the due date. I'm fairly certain it's modest in comparison to your considerable wealth. The melting expenses should be well within your means.
And if you read Legion World laws, you and Lash should already know that the leader and deputy leader have no veto over security matters, certainly including matters of our ordinances.
Good day, Prince Eudyptes.

You know full well that I can vaporize my ice creations. But that's not the point and the sculptures stay.
It appears to me that this is, shall we say, personal?

If that's how you choose to take it, Prince Eudyptes, I can't stop you. As you can see here <points to the Omnicom>, the time stamp on the repeal predates your sculpture. So unless I have soothsaying powers--and <glares> we both know I no longer have any powers--you'll find no prejudice in what action I've taken.
I'm sure as an upstanding citizen of Legion World, you don't wish to flagrantly break its laws. Well, do you, sir?

Chief, I will not apologize yet again for the laws and customs of my home world. We've been through this too many times. I never wanted to hurt you. I've tried to be friends.
Thank you for your time.
<Rocky leaves in a huff>.
