Thanks, Ibby. I'm quite proud of that twist. It was the prospect of having to write characters I don't like such as the Earth-Infinity Huntress that made me decide not to write it. I would have enjoyed having Cyborg and Steel compare notes, though.

The next story's cast is actually a quintet -- Dolphin's along for the trip to Themiscyra, too.

Oh, I forgot that you had Dolphin (and some others) join up by that time, my bad. That sounds like a very fun quintet!

Steel and Cyborg does sound like fun. Maybe this JLA's version of John Henry Irons can guest star one day.

I'd like to write him, but I'd have to give him a different origin, as there is no Death of Superman in this universe.

Yes, I thought about that as well. His high regard for Superman could still remain though.

Oh, definitely. What better role model for men than Superman (when Superman is written right, that is, which is not nearly often enough?)

Update: I've finished work on Part 1 of the JLA in Themiscyra story, and am more than halfway through Part 2. There will be 5 parts in all, and I'll start posting them as soon as they're finished.

I agree, Superman is incredibly hard to write correctly. He's just so powerful. I have a similar issue with Mon-El.

How wonderful! I'm looking forward to your Themyscira story.

Thanks, Ibby. I just finished Part 2.

And I feel the same way as you about Mon-El.

Wonderful, Fanfie! 3 parts to go!

I actually find Laurel Gand / Andromeda a bit easier to write than Mon-El. Laurel is much more like a regular teen, whereas Mon has the whole Phantom Zone imprisonment and the Seeder of Worlds thing.

A heads-up for Ibby, Harbi, and anyone else following this thread: I'm still working on the JLA-in-Themyscira story, and will hopefully have it finished and ready to post within the next few weeks.

Bittersweet news for Ibby, Harbi, and anyone else following this thread. I've decided to indefinitely shelve the still-incomplete JLA-on-Paradise-Island story until a later date. There is a non-DCU project which I'm currently feeling a near-supernatural urge to get to work on, and that's going to consume all my creativity until it's finished.

Sorry about this development, but once I resume work on the JLA story I'll inform you.

Oh of course Fanfie, I know as well as anyone how hard it can be to focus on writing when your creativity is tied up elsewhere. Creativity's a finite resource too, like time and willpower and tequila and chocolate!

Yes. Now if only my finite creativity, willpower and energy would combine to invent a machine that will keep me trim and fit and earn me lots of money tongue

You have follow your muse FL and whether or not you get back to your proposed JLA story is irrelevant as you're being honest to yourself. Don't worry about us. Have fun and keep being creative, in whatever form makes you happiest.

Thank you, Harbi. What you said is so right.

I have a thread in this forum where I post links to my non-DCU fanfics. I'll post a link to the one I'm working on once it's finished.

At this point, I'm not sure if I'll ever finish that JLA on Paradise Island story, so I'm planning to post a plot summary of it in this thread. But in the meantime, I wanted to share the scene of which I'm proudest, with some nice character moments:

The aircraft landed, and the five women disembarked to a lavish welcome from the Amazons.

"Ooh," cooed Gypsy, "the red carpet treatment!"

"Must you always be so gauche?" hissed Dr. Light.

"Jeez Louise, Kimiyo. Get that bug out of your butt already." snapped Gypsy in response.

"Ladies, please," said Vixen, "now is not the time for such pettiness. We are here to partake of sisterly communion."

"Thank you, Mari." said Wonder Woman, striding out of the aircraft.

At this precise moment, the assembled Amazon army parted to make way for Queen Hippolyta to advance toward Wonder Woman and her guests.

"Hola, daughter of my heart." her voice rang clear as a bell across the courtyard.

"Hola, mother." replied Wonder Woman semi-hesitantly.

"And who are these sister warriors I have the pleasure of meeting?"

"This is Mari, Cynthia, Kimiyo, and...uh...Dolphin? Sorry, but we still haven't learned her real name."

"But that is my real name." said Dolphin softly. "At least I think it is."

"Why don't we just call you Dolly?" asked Gypsy half-jokingly. Dr. Light rolled her eyes but said nothing.

Hippolyta laughed melodically. "Names are not of great importance." she said, "Any friend of Donna's is a friend of the Amazons. Come, let us feast."

Nice scene with nice conflict Fanfie. Kimiyo is definitely the type to call someone out harshly if she feels it is needed

Thanks, Ibby. I think that's an interesting perspective, because the way I saw it, Cynthia was just being her usual adorable self, and Kimiyo was being insensitive and mean.

I agree Kimiyo was being mean. But I noted, "if she feels it is needed". My take on Kimiyo is she holds herself and her teammates to very high standards and takes their status as superheroes very seriously. She would be embarrassed by such playful behavior especially in public.

To add, I see nothing wrong with Gypsy either. Kimiyo just needs to relax a little smile but that is how she thinks IMO
