Kinetix - she lives for this sort of thing Dream Girl - ditto Chameleon - in the Postboot, he was supposedly a pretty good singer Sun Boy and Tenzil - what I said about Kinetix and Dream Girl Uh oh, sentients are running riot on Earth. Pick 5 Legionnaires to calm the crowd without hurting anyone.

Element Lad – to sent the crowds to sleep Chemical Kid – to help his mentor Saturn Girl & Tellus – both veterans at this sort of thing by now Chameleon Boy – because no one is going to run up to a giant Xenomorph with big teeth.
Oh no – The UP has embezzled all of the Legion’s funds again. Pick 5 Legionnaire to go to casino and win enough walking money to keep the team going.

oh dear. again!
Matter Eater Lad - just is. Dream Girl - clearly. Saturn Girl - I think she might actually be good at cards! Ultra Boy - must be. Sun Boy - smarty pants and charming.
but the naltorian and the titanese will need disguises.
-------------------------------------------------------
Wolverine has crossed the company barrier and is appearing all over the DC multiverse.
Pick 6 Legionnaires to deal with this one way or another!

Cosmic Boy & Magnetic kid to play Magnoball with the clawed psycho as the ball. Saturn Girl so she can practice shutting him down as she did with Timberwolf. Saturn girl can wear the red wig from Power Boy's card game and call her self something innocuous...like Jean. Crystal Kid - oh look a shiny new ornament. Rond Vidar - just put pointy-rage in a bubble and park him in orbit. Nemesis Kid - He might be the best there is at what he does, but Nemesis Kid is just that bit better...bub. No Timberwolf.. I have too much respect for Londo to lower him to that level. Nothin' is easy in Easy! Sgt Rock is recruiting. Pick 5 Legionnaire with the personalities most suited for all out warfare. "What constitution?", say the Legion in a tale eerily like the alternate Adult Legion story.

Timber Wolf - whether it was surviving in Zuun or being a ganger on Rimbor, he knows how to do this
Shikari - the ways of the hunter are strong in this one
Ultra Boy - plenty of street smarts
Karate Kid II - Lythyl was a good training ground for him
Impulse/Kent Shakespeare - well, they'd need a good medic...

Phantom Girl can get to it without time-consuming tunnelling and defuse it from inside!
Superboy can dig through the Earth with a quickness and stifle it with his invulnerable bod if Tinya comes down with a case of the dreaded Levitz Hysterics (makes women useless emotional wrecks)!
Matter-Eater Lad can just eat it if its cunningly devised kryptonite mechanism stymies Clark's efforts!
There's a new villain group trying to take over China with their traditional elemental powers over wood, fire, earth, metal and water! Pick 5 Legionnaires to fight them, one for each element!

Ah,the 5 Chinese elements. Using this chart to help me with which elements beats which one: Wood parts Earth - Chlorophyll Kid tackles the Earth villain Earth dams (or muddies or absorbs) Water - Kinetix can move Earth, so she buries the Water one Water extinguishes Fire - As long as there's a water source nearby, Nightwind can use it to blow out the Fire one Fire melts Metal - Sun Boy, you're up! Metal chops Wood - Ferro's on the case for this one! (this sounds like an awesome idea for a story) :Chlorophyll Kid: Someone's stirring up trouble in the Philippines. Mythological creatures are appearing out of nowhere and trying to eat innocent people. Send 5 Legionnaires to find out where they're coming from and stop them.

I choo-choo-choose:
Dragonmage: not as advanced as White Witch maybe, but as someone of Earth descent he might be more likely to be familiar with Earth's mythological creatures than her
Chameleon Boy: seems like lots of these creatures are shapeshifters so use one to fight one!
Tellus: has a different level of rapport with non-human minds than Saturn Girl, that could come in handy
Sensor Girl: comfortable with the occult and can use her powers to baffle them
White Witch: heck with it, we'll throw her in there too!
Somebody's been stealing medical supplies from Medicus One. Dr Gym'll has asked the Legion to investigate, but has also warned them there's an outbreak of Grandin Gender Reversal Disease in the orbiting hospital! Pick 4 Legionnaires who can find the thieves and would best cope with being the opposite gender for a few days!

Sun Boy - he's comfortable with the body of the opposite gender... Live Wire and Spark - being twins, they'll be pretty OK with it Quislet - does it even have a gender? It's poker time! Pick four Legionnaires to infiltrate the casinos on Ventura and break up a black market ring. They have to be pretty good gamblers to not get noticed...

Dreamy - She enjoys the casinos. She might not do terribly well if her mind's on something else, but she's rich enough that it doesn't matter.
Tenzil - politician in gambling comedy shocker! Just want to see the Bond spoof.
Ayla - wiped the floor with the guys in 5YG
Jo - Rimborian background always handy for this sort of thing.
An Orion Mockery has been sent to destroy the UP by Darkseid! Pick 3 Legionnaires to conduct anger management classes for Orion, so that he reverts to his true humanish form.

Bouncing Boy has always been good at pep talks. XS is another who's good at relating to people. And Magno has always been one of the most cheerful. The Legionnaires are stuck on an island, which they have to escape without using their powers - doing so would trigger bombs everywhere. Which 5 Legionnaires can best operate without their powers?

Val Armorr - trained in his mastery, presumably including lots in environmental extremes.
Biron the Bowman - uses archery to get food for the others.
Dawnstar - as a tracker on tracking game, she presumably had to rough it a bit.
Ayla Ranzz - handy at fixing things and putting jury-rigging. Handy in a down to earth environment too.
Postboot Chuck Taine - handy for putting something together.
Roxxas has put Blok into the postal system in pieces again. Which 3 Legionnaires are best at jigsaws and can put Blok back together again?

Kinetix - handy with inanimate objects, remember? White Witch - can cast a spell to put her friend back together Element Lad - in case they miss some parts, can supply more material A massive typhoon has devastated large portions of Southeast Asia. Pick 7 Legionnaires to lead relief operations.

Relief operations? Sounds like something right up my alley! Me - Because I'm too pure too allow suffering to exist and my powers can help repair infrastructure, do search and rescue and stuff like that Saturn Girl - she always knows what to say and would be good for providing psychological counseling Element Lad - can help rebuild structures, improve the soil for agriculture, etc. etc. Brainiac 5 - to tell the rest of us what to do, but this time we'll actually listen Chameleon - for search and rescue Shikari - ditto, plus she can help identify the spots most in need of help Andromeda - an all-around powerhouse is just what we need Christmas is coming! But global warming is making sure we don't get the snow we need. Uh-oh! Pick 5 Legionnaires to help combat global warming.
Why must power be so elusive?

Element Lad - to help change the atmosphere back into what it should be composed of.
Mentalla (hey, she got a statue) - To control the minds of corporations and the public to instil environmental concerns.
Gates - Hopefully his idealism will spark a crusade against such terrible industrial practices.
Chameleon Boy - To impersonate anyone immune to Mentalla.
Laurel Gand - To slap around anyone who still doesn't get it, or drop kick them into orbit.
Extra dimensional children are putting on a performance on the Puppet Planetoid - Pick 3 Legionnaires best suited to dealing with children, and convincingly seem to enjoy the performance.
Then pick 2 Legionnaires best suited to finding and clearing up the remains of Blok that the first three Legionnaires came across.

Tenzil Kem - The good senator knows what's going on. He has an appetite for stopping corruption. And you don't want to give him an appetite.
Jacques Foccart - Following the 5YG this is where I see his future. His powers are also handy.
Projectra - Her royal status gives her a voice in the UP. She will certainly be able to push through any investigation.
Lar Gand - To stop anyone evading the investigation and no one is going to make too strong a stand against an impassioned a stand against the seeder of worlds.
Querl Dox - The prosecution use a slightly out of phase time bubble to go back and monitor the dirty deals.
So no Imra as all politicians (except Tenzil) are corrupt to varying degrees anyway. Likewise for Tellus. No Reep as everyone will complain that the Durlans did it all. No Gates as he'd want to pull down the whole of the UP anyway.
I really wanted to have Camera Kid in there from Adv 307, but he can only record events he has seen. Perhaps he could travel with Querl in the time bubble?
The Legion need to go back in time to retrieve a mystic jewel to save the people of Bgtzl. But the jewel is now around the neck of a member of a 1970 hippy commune. Which 5 wholesome Legionnaires would fit in best in such an environment?

Phantom Girl - her homeworld, plus the bell bottom pants are so fashionable. And she can just phase through the crowd to get the jewel.
Dawnstar - the wings might be a problem but at least she can tell everyone where to go.
Projectra - oh look, those wings won't be a problem anymore.
Ultra Boy - Preboot one was a very good actor.
Invisible Kid - because.
Ice Age! Freak blizzard hits Northern Europe. Send 5 Legionnaires to help out.

Sun Boy - the power of a sun, warms things up nicely.
Element Lad - large scale alchemy.
Brainiac 5 - puts the new weather control system in place in place.
Superboy - rascues people, uses flash vision, whirls around at super speed creating friction and so on.
Glorith - a little cheat to give science a helping hand.
Ontirr you traitor! The Dark Circle infiltrator has destroyed an intricate piece of metal art work intended as a gift to the Dominators. Without it, the Dominators will feel snubbed and start a galactic war. Pick the three artiest Legionnaires who are hopefully good at metalwork to help save both races from needless bloodshed.

Right, if I just freeze the entire universe down, everyone can wait it out until the next reboot - Polar Boy
I have studied the cosmology of this universe. I predict the following locations as likely singularity exit points. Querl will have similar thoughts. - Babbage.
It turns out my jewel has a mystic link with my daughter's. Finding them will be easy. Then we can be free them and then I will ground you all! - Winema Wazzo.
Sorry? You want them back? >Whoosh< There you go - Lady Mysa.
I've got a link with the speed force. In any universe. And the speed force is linked to everything. Sooooooo... - Kent Shakespeare.
That can't be the UP council coming for a visit? They'll want to pass the statues of the fallen and they're all at the polishers. Pick 5 Legionnaires best at pretending to be a statue.

Beverage Boy - oh darn, wrong universe.
Chemical Kid - altering metabolisms and chemical reactions. Kono - Anyone named after a drink surely? whaddaya mean "underage" Chameleon Boy - simply changes his insides to prevent any alcohol being absorbed.
Emergency! The Legion has only moments to fly the five people carrying shuttles through the meteor storm that's about to engulf their planet. The top five people able to pilot the craft race forward. But who are they?
