JLA Meeting

[amazon-diana.livejournal.com]

The call has gone out to all members of the League, active and reserve, and those on the Watchtower are already filing into the meeting room. There will be those who cannot attend but there should be as many people here as possible.

Things have been stagnant since the Tribunal last year, the League is ever more reactionary and less proactive. Dr. Light and Slade are running their own organizations and how has it come so far that the other side is organized and the League is drifting?

It doesn't matter, today they will brief the League on what has happened and they will move on. It's time to finish the healing begun a year ago.

"I three the sandbox."

"Move to bring the nomination to a vote."

The voice from the back is unmistakable. How he got there without being seen, and when, who knows. He's the night, after all.

Ralph, for his part, looks kind of surprised. He's always been the comic relief, or the background player. Then there was years on reserve. He doesn't make any attempt to turn it down though.

Katar wastes no time voting.

"Aye."

"Aye," says the Atom, barely looking up, his countenance stone.

"He's got my vote."

She raises her hand. Like there was a question on this.

Okay, so at one time there would have been...

Todd raises his hand as well.

"Definitely."

[martian-manhunt.livejournal.com]

"Aye."

"No one I can think of who would fill the role better."

That just leaves one of the original five: J'onn. Superman took Barry's place. Batman took his. And Wonder Woman took Dinah's.

He casts his gaze towards Batman. Still a lot of unresolved issues between them. Knowing Bruce, there might always be. Still, he's the one who called for the vote. And if even Batman's satisfied...

"Are there any objections?"

[hawk-shay.livejournal.com]

"None here."

And she really couldn't care less if Batman has a problem.

Silence from the brooding blackness in the room's corner.

"No objections here."

"None here either."

"Aye."

He nods to Ralph. Under that humor is a sharp mind. That, and a steady temper. This League will need those traits above all.

What splintered us was listening to our passions. Dr. Light's mindwipe was a decision made in the heat of the moment, with everyone listening to their fears and their panic. From there, Batman saw us all as potential foes and cooked up Brother I. From there, all the facts came to light and the tribunal kicked us in the gut. The only silver lining in that madman's plague was that it forced the League to work together, rather than simply imploding.
