Goodbye Log

Where| Legion's Briefing Hall
When| After an award's ceremony at the temporary UPgov building on Earth
Warnings/Notes| N/A

Legion World has been restored, thanks to the Miracle Machine. The Miracle Machine itself has popped off to a new dimension, possibly to the hands of a new Metron. Chronoblivion is dead and so are Its eyes and the remaining Heralds, who exploded to dust in prison once their master was gone.

The awards have been given by Madame President and yes there was a parade.

Time to go home. The Time Trapper left them all with a gift, however, that'll let them return. Strange glowing brands on their bodies that will let them access different dimensions, using T-gates in the Legion's universe as travel hubs, for those that want to want to keep in touch. For those that don't, like the ones that want to run off and make a new criminal life somewhere, they have a chance to grab a T-gate and split before anyone has a chance to stop them, but they'll have to make any goodbyes fast.

Once the Legionnaires walk through the gates to their home universes, their timelines will be locked to the time of the latest person from a particular world -- except for those that are from subtly alternate worlds from each other; they can go home and change the timeline without worrying about changing the past for others. Those walking home to certain death aren't out of luck, either, as the Legionnaires have their ways of faking a death - with fake hologram-disguised bodies, even.

Most of them have retained their powers, though that situation is finicky and strange. In some universes, they'll retain their Legion powers, in some they'll have no powers at all, and for those who had powers back home, they may find they're back to their full powers whenever they're in their home universe.

The native Legionnaires are grateful as anyone could be, especially those trapped for seemingly timeless months in the crystal dimension, who watched the displacees on its crystal walls and actually had hope because of everything they did.

All the displacees have been granted the statue of honorary Legionnaire, and any that feel like they'd like to stay on the team, well...it certainly wouldn't be unwelcome. The Legion needs to get on its feet and the crystal dimension Legionnaires are out of practice and need time to recover. Those that don't want to be Legionnaires but want to settle in the United Planets are welcome to stay as well, and the entire team is to be granted full UP citizenship so that they have dual citizenship with countries in their homeworlds.

Also, surprisingly, the last anon meme that some of them will see went up and instead of cattiness or people judging their coolness, it was filled with one very simple thing: close to thousands of pages of people saying "Thank you, Legionnaires," and giving their heartfelt goodbyes to those that don't intend to stay.

Shock. Awe.

It's the happiest ending they could've asked for. But it is an ending. And now it's time to say goodbye.

"You say that but I still have three tracks of consciousness currently dedicated to solving several problems that need solving."

Haha, you can't make him lazy in his head, Grif.

"That said, most of the other tracks are currently present.
He smiles a very genuine smile. "Even if I'm perhaps feeling somewhat...conflicted about having to see you all go."

He breathes out a huffy little breath.

"I'd say that I've never been one for goodbyes, but other than my teammates from home -- who I seem to be thoroughly stuck to - it's been exceptionally rare that there have been people I'd actually miss."

Grif shrugs in a gesture of faux-modesty.

"I mean, I am pretty awesome," he admits. "I got an award and everything."

Haha, Brainy. Haha. Grif still loves that and, once he's figured out where he wants to be home? It's going on the wall.

"You were pretty cool too, though."

The mention of the award actually makes Brainy laugh, which, even now, is a relatively rare thing. It's only one little laugh but still.

The mention of Brainy being pretty cool too keeps the smile on his face.

"What do you plan to do next? I'll admit that I'm curious."

Grif has grown. And Brainy's feeling a little wistful about not being there to witness more of it.

Grif's proud to make Brainy laugh. The dude's been through some shit. He deserves to be able to laugh.

"I gotta go home. Pull some friends' asses out of fires. Make sure my sister's not doing anything stupid. Eat a bunch of things that would cause a scandal here. Business as usual."

He's going to have to go out of his way on the last one, though. Living on Chorus's moon means it's hard to get good stuff sometimes.

"Gonna hang out with Rich some after that."

No further commentary on that.

"...I guess you're gonna be fixing a lot of stuff?"
