Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Cobalt's Office of Security - Post-Crisis

So we need to get this office geared up for the new leadership! I want this place looking spotless and all these outstanding cases wrapped up.

We've had one of the most successful eras ever during Lardy and Cleome's term--solving case after case without much fanfare. Let's keep it going.

(And let's hope I didn't jinx it).

(And why am I talking to myself like Space Ranger now?)

Ohmygod! You should be like talking to yourself you big...

Of all the low down, lousy, stinking, worthless, cheap-ass things you've ever done, this one is the...

I locked my guns in the case... cuz I couldn't like be trusted...

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Calm down, Brit! I see my talk with Sam Evilheart went good. He probably came clean to you right afterward.

Well, I know its hard but better to get it all out in the open now. I have your best interests at heart, trust me.

Don't talk to me.

I'm here to clean out my office...

Oh and 'Lita says you can Kiss her Butt.

My's quitting too, and Gladys, and Maralyn, and Vicki, and Janis, and Doris, and Bev...

But the Intern HO Triplets, they need two more rounds of antibiotics... so they're staying on.

Have a nice life, Creep!

Hey, hold on Brit! There's no need to quit! You do a lot of good around here.

<softer voice>

Look, I'm really looking out for you. Sam Pureheart is clever, but I can't help but get a bad vibe from him. Remember how the Red Bee tricked us all? You can't let your guard down for any handsome, heroic young man. Ever notice how his friend Tony is scared of him? Something else else isn't right there.

Ohmygod, Tony isn't scared of him! God you're just jealous! Cuz he's younger, bigger, stronger, and hansomerer than you.

All of those things could be true for all I care. What matters is he's just some punk kid whose worked some sort of spell on you.

And I don't like it.

(And handsomerer? Really? Come on, look at this face)

She might have a point there...just sayin.

Ohmygod!

You know what? I'm not quitting.

I'm telling Sam, He's got to bring me to work and pick me up from work every day.

And I'm gonna make sure we're right in your office doorway when I kiss him hello and good-by.

*sigh*

Okay, Brit, fine. If it means you keep working here, I don't care if your boyfriend picks you up and brings you to work.

But please at least consider my advice. I know a thing or two about men who say things but mean something else.

I'm sure he'll have a chance to prove himself soon enough. Either he's a hero who just needs a chance and I'll welcome him with open arms, or he's a spy sent her by Zardi to get at your grandparents through you. In which case, he's had centuries perfecting his craft fooling magic-users, warriors, detectives and good Samaritans.

But just for giving me this headache, I'm definitely attending your Prom.

Ohmygod, like there was a chance you weren't after you got a taste of Miss "Nude Modeling is an Art Form" Holly.

I couldn't stand her before...

Look, don't hold it against your art teacher that we slept together on one of the drawing tables. (Hope that wasn't your one by the way )

Ever since I was a teen, I've had Lardy suck every ounce of fat off my body so I'm probably the most fit specimen in this entire galaxy. What artist wouldn't want to take a look--and then what sentient wouldn't want to do what comes naturally after?

I was actually hoping you'd introduce me to the librarian but didn't think it was the right time to bring it up...

Not Helping Cobie.

Britany Lynn Quank, Enough of this!


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(If he's not man enough to handle this on his own, he's not the one for you.)

Very nice Space Ranger. My son looks up to the Space Rangers.

Ohmygod!

Uncle... You're right, Sam has to handle this.

(I think perhaps I need to keep a closer eye on this kid. Just look at the division within the Security Office. This could very well be a plot of Zardi's!

But maybe I should hold off on letting Brit know anymore of my theories for a little bit)

Cobie, The kid would have to be a complete idiot to jerk Brit around. Think about it for a minute. He'd have Abin, Pagan, Me, SC, Hrun, matlock, and you to deal with. If there was anything left of him when Brit, My, and Lolita got finished with him.

I see the wheels turning partner... but it don't make sense.

Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(And Pagan would know in a heartbeat if he was one of Zardi's)

What if he was an unwitting pawn. Not aware of the diversion he was causing?

Fellas, something isn't right with that kid. And I know it takes a crazy person to attack us all, but yet we've all been attacked countless times. We just bring that out in people

But I can see Brit was pretty wound up and I don't want to give her a coronary. I know Prom is pretty stressful to girls. I attended about a dozen of them myself since I had just recently co-founded the LMB and was a huge celebrity at the time. And each one I went to, my date was off her rocker. So I don't want to make her even more stressed out.

Still--I think pretty highly of all of my fellow LMBers and Security Officers, but I believe that anything can happen and any one of us can be fooled...

That's a possibility, something to keep an eye on.


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Except it really wasn't him creating the divisions)

Big difference between some nutjob who thinks he can take us down attacking and some high school kid practicing his 4F technique on the wrong girl, Cobie.

Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(He'll find out about the fifth F if that's what he's up to.)

What are you implying? We need to watch our own backyard.

You're thinking too strategically, Ranger. Zardi is a magical being and therefore plays by different rules, unlike the Red Bee or the Dominion. He plays on choices and emotions.

How better to attack us than through something like breaking one of very best's heart? How better to cause all kinds of internal strife? Its hard to explain because I'm not a magic-user myself really...but they play by other rules than we do.

(And don't let Brit know I called her one of our very best; not until I get an apology...)

I'm not implying anything. I'm saying that the kid didn't do anything. The divisions here are because of our reactions to the kid dating Brit.

Look I'll give you two the "Something else else's Fishy about this" card and agree with it. But only because she's never acted like this before. She's got that Valley Girl act down pat but she's sharp. This kid's got her wrapped around his finger. That's not like her. I don't know but...

Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(And maybe I just want her to be happy)
