Arg, OK, cause I was thinking Arms Fall off Boy. I'm trying to do this without looking.

Nope.
the correct answer is also an established Preboot-era character... and was also once a Legionnaire in the Preboot/TMK reality.

Who was the very last super powered youth to try-out in the first round, in Legionnaires 43?
Clue: was an established character and Legionnaire in the Reboot/TMK era.
Not
Accordion King (SW6 creation)
Exploding Girl / X Bomb Betty
Arm Fall Off Boy / Splitter
Crystal Kid

Nope.

I will say this character was male.

Yes! You got it. Stone Boy was the very last applicant, and the panel had the Athramites wheeling him away.
Polar Boy, Night Girl, and Chlorophyll Kid were also featured prominently. And of course Dragonmage, and future Workforce members Particon, Radion and Atom'x. Quite a few other Preboot characters made cameos, I would need to check the issue again to name them all but I'm fairly sure we saw most (if not all) of the Preboot Subs too.

When the older Legion and the SW6 Legionnaires meet up, Rokk and Cos are making scintillating conversation like "so you're ... uh ... me" when they are interrupted. Who interrupts them and how?

Tenzil Kem to the rescue! (Offering them hors douvres, at least things a Bismollian would think of as such.)

Correct! In typical Tenzil fashion his exact comments were "Sorry to interrupt this sparkling conversation but ... anyone care for a canape? Some gyrofoam? A diode?"
Take it away Chaim.

Classic Tenzil! Well, ok, more like Classic TMK Tenzil... I forget sometimes how different Tenzil was in the Adventure Era!

Who was rejected for Legion membership because he or she was too good (as in, of moral character)?

I'm betting this was that guy who was rejected while Dynamo Boy was leader. Can't remember name or power though.

stile remembered in the abstract, but Ibby got the name in specific! (Which has been somewhat rare for my questions lately.) Go Ibby!

I credit my research into rejected Legion applicants with remembering! (I had to do that for my Survivor/Idol games earlier...)
Lessee...
Who were the Smitten Kittens?

Good job Ibby.
Hmm. Smitten Kittens. Was that a name clone Lobo gave to the two girls in the Quiet Darkness?

Thanks, stile! Legion rejects have always fascinated me.
Nope, it wasn't clone Lobo.
Clue: the kittens were smitten with each other.

and you got it... revealed in a line in Legion Lost, where Jo remembers how the other Legionnaires made fun of his and Tinya's closeness. Triad coined the nickname.
