an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Cass and Cassie isn't as bad as Connor and Connor. Didn't the DC writers have a baby-name book?

I think Superboy spells his differently-- with a K, and possibly an e. Also, don't forget Arrowette, whose name is Cissie.

The DC writers apparently *have* a baby name book, but it's from the 1950s and someone's taped all the pages outside the Cs together.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Kon is Conner with an e.

Connor Hawke, Ollie's son and Roy's sort-of brother, is Connor with an o.

Aha! The E--O factor! And I didn't even catch the O. Mostly because I didn't know of Connor-with-an-O's existence.

No, it's the nocturnal hanging around on rooftops lifestyle, I think -- back in the ashram he was both veggie and ethnically-nonspecific.

But maybe Star City doesn't have anywhere for healthy veggie foodstuffs, so he's been living on iceburg and Minute Rice.

Though your wank works, too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hee hee. Hi, Holli!

Holy alliteration, Batman!

Connor with an O rocks hard.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

They would. They really, really would.

Wasn't Superboy concerned a few months back about having Luthor DNA as if evil were a congenital defect?

Yep, he sure was.

Knowing Kon, he was more concerned about the male pattern baldness.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

He's worried about evil and not baldness? Where are the boy's priorities?

Yeah. I know. Had to go for the snark anyway. Don't mind me.

edit: Ha! Fabulous x-post. Also, the gods have decreed that New Comics Day = Amy Walks Home In The Rain Day. Amy will foil the gods (and stun her boss!) by staying to do more work.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because then DC could act as if martial arts skill, like archery skill, is genetic.

Don't they? I thought just about everything was genetic unless you have to make a mundane special ... and then it's incredibly heritable from there on in.

Thanks, Steph -- I kinda figured those were of her. But with all the name confusion, questioned everything.
