With Blood and Rage of Crimson Red.
Jessica: We made such a great team Jaune.
Jaune: Yeah we sure did. And, uh. I'm sorry if I did anything wrong. I know I'm not exactly anyone's first choice for a teammate.
Jessica: Oh no. *grabs Jaune's hand* In fact you were great. Without your support, my anxiety would have overtaken me and we would have been in a lot more trouble.
Jaune: R-really. Am I really that useful to you? *looks longingly at Jessica's eyes*
Jessica: Yes of course. You have been so kind and patient with me. Without you I don't think I'll... *their faces inches away from each others*
Jaune: Jess...
Jessica: Jaune...
Tumblr media
Yang: Don't look rubes but I think the new girl are NTRing Jaune away from you...
Ruby:
Tumblr media
*portal opening through time and space*
Razer: Ruby Rose. You have shown to posses great rage. This red ring of rage calls out to you. Say the Red Lantern Oath and all its power will belong to you.
Ruby: WITH BLOOD AND RAGE OF CRIMSON RED!
Jessica: W-wait someone should stop her!
Jaune: What's going on?
Ruby: RIPPED FROM A CORPSE SO FRESHLY DEAD!
Jessica: Oh no. If she finish saying the oath the transformation will then be complete and she will become a Red Lantern.
Jaune: Is that a bad thing?
Jessica: Muy Malo!!!
Jaune: I take it's no bueno, then?
Jessica: We need to stop her from putting on that ring. Regular Ruby is already powerful enough but if she put on the Red Ring then no force in the universe will be powerful enough to stop her.
Yang: Don't have to tell me twice. I'm on it!
*zap*
Tumblr media
Hey what's the Big idea!?
Razer: If you think I would allow you to harm another fellow corps. Member then you have another thing coming blondie.
Yang: Bring it pointy!
Ruby: TOGETHER WITH OUR HELLISH HATE!
Jessica: Jaune! Me and Yang will try to get the attention of the Red Lantern. Meanwhile you should try to stop Ruby from putting on the red ring.
Jaune: Wait how am I supposed to stop her?!
Yang: Adapt! Improvise!
Jaune: That still doesnt tell me how to stop her.
Ruby: WE WILL BURN YOU ALL THAT IS YOUR FATE!
Jessica: Quick, Jaune do something! Ruby just finished with the oath.
Jaune: Oh no what do I do, what do I do?... That's it. Desperate times calls for desperate measure... I'm sorry Ruby. *kiss*
Tumblr media
Ruby: *kiss Jaune back*
Tumblr media
Yang: Damn....
Jessica: 😢
Razer: What the F...
Jaune: So are you okay now Ruby. No getting angry, no more going red?
Ruby: Hmmm... I maybe need another kiss to help me from going angry again. 😘
Jaune: Ha, ha. I think you're fine now.
Ruby: *giggle* Oh Jaune I'm not joking when I said I needed another kiss. 😌
Jaune: You're such a kidder Ruby.
Ruby: WITH BLOOD AND RAGE OF CRIMSON RED!
Jaune: N-no, no wait! Damn it you win Rubes. *kiss Ruby passionately*
Ruby: Oh baby that's the stuff. 🥴
Jaune: S-so Ruby I kissed you just as you wanted so please promise me you will not turn into a red lantern.
Ruby: *sensually whisper in Jaune's ears* Then we should continue this in bed❤~
Jaune: W-wait Ruby don't I at least have a say in this?
Ruby: Yes. You got to say my name over and over again. Now come here lover boy. *picks up Jaune*
Jessica: W-what are you doing to Jaune? Please don't hurt him...
Ruby: Oh don't you worry about him. 😉
Jessica can only watch in silence as the tiny red reaper took the boy she have a crush on her shoulder like he is some sort of a prize stuffed animal into her room. After a few minutes the sounds of Jaune's screaming and moaning soon follows.
Yang: Uhhh I don't think what happened inside is entirely consentual.
Jessica: *staring intensely at the door* 😳
Razer: Uh.. I will try to take back the ring the first chance I have. *sigh* Atrocitus will not like this one bit.

Lantern oaths. What’s your favorite?
I added the different version of the red lantern one that Razer says. I didn’t add Aya’s cause hers didn’t actually work :(
Sorry I also didn’t add the black or white lantern oath. Maybe I’ll do a separate post for those.
And here’s the English version (or a version so to speak) of the indigo lantern oath.
Tumblr media
I think my favorites are the red and green lantern oaths. :D

Hope Shines Bright: Dark Matter Alt. Ending #2
[Takes place during Razer’s memorial service on Odym]
Somewhere in the afterlife, Razer is joined by his long dead wife. “Ilana, c-can it really be you?” Ilana smiles warmly as she gently brushes his cheek. “Yes beloved, it’s me.” Razer, practically in tears, embraces her for the first time in what felt like a millennia. “I told you I came back for you.” He said, forcing a half smile. Ilana chuckled, “And you most certainly did.” Razer’s half smile falls and he immediately recalls the events prior to her death. “I am so sorry for not listening to you on Volkreig. You were right about everything.” Ilana reciprocates the hug and quietly shushes him. “It’s okay Razer, I know your heart was in the right place.” “No Ilana, it wasn’t. I was so obsessed with protecting you that I didn’t stop to consider the consequences for my actions.” Ilana’s face fell as well. “No you didn’t and for that alone, I would’ve been very disappointed in you.” Razer hung his head in shame; his self-loathing beginning to emerge.
“But…” Ilana started, causing him to perk up a bit. “I’ve seen how far you’ve come since our time on Volkreig. Granted you’ve made some mistakes…” Razer knew exactly what she meant. He could well remember receiving that dreaded Red Lantern ring seconds after Ilana’s death. “However…” She went on, “that’s not to say you’ve done everything in your power to right the wrongs you’ve caused. I’ve witnessed your personal growth from afar and I cannot be more proud of you.” For the first time in a long while, Razer genuinely smiled. “But…” Ilana stated. This caused Razer’s smile to fade. ���Your time has not yet come.” “W-What?!” “I’m afraid you cannot join me here beloved.” “Why? Have I not changed for the better?” He asked, desperate for an answer. “You have beloved. But I’m afraid that you are needed elsewhere.” Razer looked at his late wife in disbelief. “More specifically, someone else needs you now more than ever.” She pulls back the veil to reveal a grieving Aya. Razer’s heart sinks at the sight of his true love in tears. “She is mourning you Razer and it is clear that you still love her.” Razer was worried that Ilana would become jealous. But to his surprise, she wasn’t. “Go to her Razer. Be with her.” “Are you certain Ilana?” “I am, beloved. But do not worry; when your time does come, I will always be with you.” Razer nodded knowingly as he slowly faded from the afterlife.
Back on Odym, as the funeral drudged on, something unexpected started to happen. A hand from Razer’s supposedly-lifeless corpse started twitching. Rapidly at first, but then it stayed perfectly upright. No-one noticed this, at first, until they could hear something from within the casket. It started in low and then began to grow:
“In fearful day…”
Upon sensing the creation of a new candidate, a rogue blue lantern levitates from Battery Temple and begins its descent down the mountainside.
“In raging night”
The ring hurdles past various flora and fauna surrounding the area at Mach-speed as it continues its autonomous pursuit.
“With strong hearts full as souls ignite”
Suddenly, with a whoosh and a zip, the ring rockets past the waning crowd of mourners. “Hey what’s that?!” One of them called out, pointing to the streak of blue light left in the ring’s wake. Everyone stopped what they were doing and watched in bewilderment as the blue lantern ring slipped effortlessly onto Razer’s finger.
“When all seems lost in the war of light”
Then, as if by magic, the former Red Lantern rose from his casket and ascended toward the heavens; only to stop halfway.
“Look to the stars where Hope shines Bright!”
As soon as that last line was uttered, Razer: the once fallen son of Volkreig, opened his eyes. Upon doing so, the entire area was immersed in an ethereal bluish-white glow; blinding nearly everybody in its proximity. “What’s going on Hal?” asked Carol, a slight tremble of fear in her voice. “We’re about to find out. Look!” Once the cascading light died down, all those in attendance stared in shock to discover whom it was. Razer slowly descended down until his feet touched the surface. The outfit he was currently wearing no longer had the Red Lantern symbol adorned on his chest, but instead it was the symbol of the Blue Lantern Corps. His original uniform had been fully bathed in a diamond bluish-white color scheme that radiated holy righteousness.
Razer stared down at his hands, contemplating his current situation. Everyone had crowded around to this miracle for themselves. But none were more taken aback than Aya. She carefully pushed herself to the front of the crowd and found herself struggling to comprehend what was transpiring. Then, without thinking, Aya cautiously edged herself toward the man whom was once thought dead. “R-Razer?” She asked, her voice barely a whisper. She reached out to touch him when suddenly he whipped around and glared at her. Tensions were understandably high and no-one said a word. Just then, Razer spoke up, “Aya…it’s me.” The surprising amount of warmth in his voice was almost inhuman. Aya didn’t know what to think. Could this possibly be the man whom she loved with all her heart?
The newly christened Blue Lantern sensed this and with a wave of his hand, he summoned a construct to bring over a blueish-purple lily that had been placed near his casket. He gently floated it into the palms of her hands; not a single petal out of place. Aya gazed at this very peculiar flower and thought, “Why would he choose this one?” Then she remembered how Razer had given her this particular flower when they had visited the ruins of his home back on Volkreig. It had become a symbol of new life taking root amidst the devastation that lay around it. This realization made her eyes light up as brightly as his new uniform. “I-It is you!” She managed to blurt out, her voice choked up with accompanying tears. Razer extends his hand and gentle caresses Aya’s cheek. The former crestfallen android takes hold of his hand and nestles into it; internally promising herself that she will never let him go.
No sooner had their fingers intertwined that the reality of this moment washed over them, overwhelming in its sheer intensity. Their eyes, pools of longing and love, spoke volumes of the trials they endured and the unyielding hope that sustained them through the darkest of nights. Each touch, each glance, ignited a flame that defied the constraints of mortality, burning brighter with every heartbeat. With trembling lips, they drew closer, their breaths mingling in the air, a silent symphony of anticipation and desire. In that moment, Odym faded away, leaving only the echo of their hearts, beating in unison; a rhythm that echoes through time itself. And then, as if drawn by an invisible force, their lips meet in a kiss that transcended the boundaries of life and death.
While they were kissing, the energy from Razer’s Blue Lantern ring starts to swirl around them before culminating into a glorious fireworks display that explodes around them. Everyone gasps in amazement as this wondrous spectacle illuminates, even in broad daylight. Once it concludes, everyone claps and cheers; even the Red Lanterns were shown to be impressed. Amidst the cheering, Razer whispers to Aya, “I am truly sorry for all that I put you through. I wasn’t lying when I said you have more of a soul than I ever had.” Aya smiles meekly. “For what it’s worth…” Razer continued, “You had every right to be angry. I dismissed your affections and kept you at arm’s length because of this.” Aya gazed up at her now revitalized lover. “Razer, while what you said is true, I have come to understand how multifaceted the concept of love truly is. It is an emotion that must understood in both its light and darkest forms.” “Be that as it may; the reason I said those things to you prior to your transformation is because I was confused and afraid.” “Afraid?” asked Aya, “Why?” “I had been in love with Ilana for so long that I become afraid of betraying her memory.” Aya bowed her head with solemn understanding. “As I said before, I saw your memories and felt your pain. But even in death, I would assume Ilana would want you to be happy.” Razer smirked, “Indeed she would have.”
There was a pregnant pause between the two. “Did you really mean what you said?” Aya asked, a twinge of doubt in her voice. Razer looked puzzled, “What did I say?” “That the reason you couldn’t kill me was because you had no hate in your heart for me. Only love.” Razer nodded. ‘Yes Aya, I meant every word of it. I could never hurt you; nor would I want to.” A small tear trickled down Aya’s cheek as the confirmation of her lover’s words resonated in her mind. “Which brings me to another query.” “What might that be?” asked Razer. “Can you ever forgive me?” Aya whimpered, her eyes shimmering with vulnerability and remorse. Razer, though taken aback by her words, held her close to his chest. “Aya, there is nothing to forgive. As I said, you had every right to attack me after the way I hurt you. If anything, I should be asking you for such a boon.” Now it was Aya’s turn to be taken aback. She had not expected Razer to be so even-tempered and calm. But seeing as though he was a changed man, Aya couldn’t stay mad at him. Instead, she stared up at the man whom she had fallen deeply in love with and said, “Of course I forgive you Razer.” “Then I guess you know me better than I thought.” Razer remarked. Aya let out a soft giggle before embracing her beloved in another passionate kiss.
It wasn’t long before the two lovers were greeted by a pair of familiar faces. It was Hal and Kilowog, accompanied by Carol who was too transfixed by the whole ordeal not to join them. “I’m glad to see you all have survived.” Razer said calmly. To his surprise, Kilowog said nothing. Instead, he pulled the young Blue Lantern into one of his famous bear hugs, to which he wholeheartedly reciprocated. “That was some display you put on just now kid.” Hal remarked. Razer rolled his eyes. “But…I sure am glad to have you back.” Hal said, holding out his hand. The new Blue Lantern smiled warmly as he firmly shook his leader’s hand with pride. As he did so, Razer glanced over at Carol with a perplexed look about him. “Who’s she Hal?” He asked, “Another of your earthling mates?” “That’s one way of putting it.” Said Carol. Hal commenced the introductions. “Razer, this is Carol Ferris: my former boss back on earth. Carol, this is Razer: a trusted member of my crew and one I’m glad to call…my friend.”
With this being said, both lanterns kindly shook hands. “Glad to finally meet the man who just came back from the dead.” Carol quipped. Razer chuckled, “It was…life changing to say the least.” “I’ll say.” Carol muttered. “So you must be the woman that Hal aimlessly drones on about.” “Yeah, I guess I am.” “I will never understand the appeal of getting into an intimate relationship with one’s superiors.” Razer remarked. “It’s complicated.” Hal called over. “What he means to say is, we’ve always had an unspoken bond between us. One made even more difficult when I became the head of my father’s company back home.” “And this made you want her even more?” Razer called over to Hal, trying to piece it all together. “Well…that was just a small perk that came with it.” Hal explained. “Oh yeah.” chortled Kilowog, “Hal’s always been a flirt when it comes to women...especially the high-ranking sort.” “Yeah, I got a glimpse of that back on Zamaron.” Carol huffed, remembering her first encounter with the Star Sapphires. “And as I told you, she was just a friend.” Hal retorted indignantly. “A friend who was trying to drug and/or imprison you.” Razer added. “True, but what woman wouldn’t want to imprison all this?” Hal boasted. “Oh boy.” Kilowog groaned as he face palmed himself. “Has he always been this vain?” Razer asked, eying Carol for information. “No.” She sighed dejectedly, “Sometimes, he’s much worse.” Both Razer and Kilowog looked at each other knowingly.
Hal, finally having enough of this mini ‘roast-fest’, decided to cut in. “Alright that’s enough out of you.” He said, briefly pushing Carol off to the side. “Guess it’s true what they say, ‘if you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the engine room.” Kilowog chimed in, looking very amused with Hal’s antics toward Carol. “It’s out of the kitchen actually.” Hal said, quickly correcting his sergeant. “Is she always like this?” asked Razer. “She can be quite determined when she wants to be.” Said Hal loftily. “But anyway, I think I can speak for both of us when I say it’s great to have you back Razer.” “It’s endearing to be back Hal and needless to say, I feel a lot better than how Kilowog looks.” The Green Lantern sergeant chuckled as he shook his head. “Always with the smart mouth.” “Hey, that’s Razer for you.” Hal shrugged.
For the rest of the day, the Interceptor crew mingled among the many Lantern factions that were present. When Razer encountered Bleez; Atrocitus’ former lieutenant, amidst the crowd, she had nothing but a look of restrained admiration upon her face. “I never thought I’d say this to an enemy of the Red Lanterns but…great to see alive Razer.” “Thank you Bleez. It must’ve been hard for you to say such a thing.” “Yeah well, don’t get used to it!” She snapped. Razer rolled his eyes, “Some things never change.” He thought as he continued his rounds. The young Blue Lantern met all sorts of people; many of them congratulated him for his phenomenal return while others asked him how it was possible. But Razer had the same answer: “I just…never lost hope.” Two faces stood back amidst the hectic crowd; both sporting grins and a warm sense of pride: Saint Walker and Ganthet. “Now do you see Saint Walker? How hope never truly dies.” “Indeed I do. The beauty of hope is life-everlasting and I do believe that brother Razer has finally found new purpose after all.”

Darrin Guy Gardner, The Blue Warrior of Vuldar
Son of the Vuldar warrior Shiryalla Tome--living under the human identity of Gillian--and Roland Ebenezer Gardner. Shiryalla returned to her role as Green Lantern in a distant sector, leaving Guy and his siblings to be raised by Roland and his second wife, Peggy Louise.
Guy’s older brothers, Mace and Gerard, and younger sister Gloria, all followed their father into law enforcement, with only Guy choosing to go into special education instead. Guy coming out as a trans man drove a further wedge between him and his father and religious step-mother that lasted until their deaths. During this period of being estranged from his family, Guy received the first of what would turn out to be several power rings: a Green Oan ring, provided so Guy could serve as a back-up Lantern for either John Stewart or Hal Jordan should they be indisposed.
Unbeknownst to Guy, all of his siblings had become wrapped up Quorum, the metahuman military unit led by Major Force, their Vuldar genetics becoming dominate. It would take the near-death of Alex DeWitt and her transformation into the Yellow Lantern Nero to bring Guy back in contact with his siblings, all of whom left Quorum in protest of Alex’s death at Zmeck’s hands, though Guy’s relationship with them would remain tense.
After the death of his father and learning that the green ring he had owned all this time had been his biological mother’s up until her own death years ago--a fact the Guardians hid from him all that time--Guy was consumed in the Red Light of Atros and remade as a Red Lantern. While Brother Blood and Rankorr were also operating this time, Guy had abandoned Earth for deep space as his contemporaries had, so they rarely interacted.
Encountering Jean Loring--reunited with the Black Diamond of Eclipso despite her supposed immersion into the role of Indigo-1--and the still vengeful Nero, Guy began the long process of breaking the Red Lantern programming others like Razer and Bleez had already gone through.
By the end of the process, Guy didn’t have the rage in his heart to use the ring, but he was too way of the Guardians to go back to Green. Instead, the Blue Lanterns drew him in, Guy becoming a warrior of hope, the healing powers of the blue light meshing with the raw power of the Vuldar.
It was around this time that Guy and Nero would discover that he had been cloned by a species called the Draal. Adopting the child, Joseph Gardner settled in the Oan Mosiac with his father, his uncle John, and an extended family of lanterns that Guy had made for himself out in space.

Soak up that blue light!
Aw man, Blue Lantern Razer makes me really, really wanna see him supercharge Hal and Kilowog.
And if it’s too OP to have Razer on hand to always supercharge them, maybe the story could be about Razer’s struggle mastering the blue ring because he’s switching from his Red Lantern way of fighting and thinking. Big emotional payoff moment can be Razer finally supercharging them for awhile.
But yessss, can’t get enough of Blue Lantern Razer 👀

Razor so handsome, but I was biting my nails to have yj not fuck over his character development.
I also love that rainbow reference because like…that’s Kyle. That’s Kyle white lantern bullshit. I love him (but also yj can’t touch my 90’s boys after the shit they pulled with Wally don’t even breathe in Connor and Kyle’s direction I swear to Christ /hj)
Also the cosmic treadmill got me all up in my feelies, don’t know how I feel about them using flash lore…don’t know how I feel about all that. But overall, I legit just love Razor with all my heart and like…I love green lantern animated so much, i always felt sorta bitter that it never got a reboot like yj did but for now, this is enough. However, like I need the new popsicle boy to meet up with Hal and Walker after all this and go “heeeeyyyy”. It’s just nice to hear his voice, I know that’s kind of silly but idk I like razor’s voice, and him and kilawog fuckK ME…the BOYS
Also this means Carol is a star sapphire in yj, so girlboss win.
I honestly would not have cared if they had messed with his character development because i never expected them to stick so close to the GLTAS story like they did. Even if they had just straight up made him an evil red lantern working with the light, I still would be happy to know he exists on earth 16 at all.
Rainbow Razer would be the ultimate power move for grandon to pull. God, imagine he shows back up later, not only a white lantern, but also having Aya with him to help in the final battle.
I assume by Connor you mean Connor Hawke. The only way I can see them bringing him in is if they did another big time skip (which I really don’t want them to do). Though “hey you have a kid you didn’t know about” stories always crack me up. I’m still curious to see if they ever actually show that Bruce is Damian’s father or not.
Not sure how I feel about the cosmic treadmill either, though it is always nice to see Bart do something.
Yaaaaaas bring in Saint Walker! He was one of my favorites in GLTAS (though Razer is always THE fav). I feel ya on the voice thing. That is how a lot of the fandom seems to feel about Wally whenever he shows up as a hallucination.

A Lantern’s Rage PART 3
Prev Beginning  Next
Based on @cornholio4 ‘s Red Lantern Prompt
______________________________________________________________
The view of the Earth from the watchtower was always a sight to see. Hal sighed as he looked down on the big blue planet. “You were right when you said your home planet was beautiful.”
Hal looked over at his shoulder to see his friend, Blue Lantern Razer slowly walking toward him , he chuckled, “Do I ever lie?” He turned his head to look back at Earth. “Sometimes when I’m here, I take a moment to just take it all in. To remind myself what I'm fighting for.” 
“I understand.”, Razer said coolly, as he walked over and stood next to Hal. “It’s difficult to believe you came from such a planet.” Hal snorted, and lightly punched Razer’s shoulder.
“Yeah. I guess it is hard to believe such a handsome specimen like myself came from little old Earth.”, Hal joked.
Suddenly, the sound of an alarm filled Hal’s ears, recognizing it as the alarm for the Situation Room he looked at Razer. “Follow me!”, he shouted, Razer nodded and together they flew to the Situation Room in the center of the Watchtower.  The Situation room was where the core members of the Justice League discussed threats and held meetings about plans to further ensure the safety of Earth and its citizens. 
Once the doors opened, Hal immediately got to work, “What’s going on!”he asked, plopping down into his designated seat. Razer stood behind him, silent and listening. He saw Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman sitting at the table in the middle of the room. “The scanners picked up red lantern energy on Earth.”, Bruce explained as he pressed a few buttons and a hologram appeared.  It was Earth, with a little blinking red dot covering Europe, “Computer, pinpoint location of the red lantern energy.”, The Batman said.
The hologram shifted and turned into a 3-D model of a city, the word “Paris” underneath it. “There is a red lantern in Par-isss”?, Razer asked, Diana nodded her head. “Hal, will you and your companion be able to detain the threat? Or will you need assistance?”, she asked.  
Hal waved his hand dismissively, “It won't be necessary. Razer’s blue lantern energy not only boosts mine, it neutralizes Red Lantern energy. As soon as Razer gets close enough that Red Lantern will be powerless.” He grinned at the Amazonian warrior, and looked at Razer, “Ready?”
“Ready.”, Razer replied. Together they left the situation room, to fly to Paris.
When they arrived in Paris, they were greeted by the sight of a giant cloud of smoke, he and Razer shared a look. That’s where they’ll find the red lantern, they flew closer and ended up above what may have been a school. Parts of the building were on fire, there were destroyed parts that encased a big courtyard full of trembling teens. That’s most likely where they’ll find the red lantern. They flew closer and hid behind some debris waiting for something to prove their suspicions correct. 
Hal looked over the students, all of them were terrified and there were a handful of adults trying to keep them calm. But there was a small group in the middle of the courtyard that was separated from the rest of the students with no adults watching over them. Why wasn’t anyone checking  on them, wait was that an unconscious adult in one kid's arms? A red haired woman in a white suit was asleep in a tall asian boy’s arms. He noticed that almost everyone kept away from that one group in the middle, just what was going on? In fact, it looked like everyone was scared to just look at them.
Suddenly, there was a giant gust of wind and there was a glowing red figure hovering above the middle group. There’s their red lantern. Hal gasped, it was just a kid, a teenage girl. Her most notable feature was the set of red devil horns resting on her head.  They flew closer and saw that the group  huddled together behind a girl with glasses and ombre hair and a boy with glasses and a red cap. “Marinette! Please you have to fight him.”, the girl begged. 
The red lantern, or rather Marinette laughed, not a light hearted giggle, it was a hearty laugh. Like she heard someone tell her a really funny joke. “Fight who exactly? Hawkmoth?”, she cackled, “Hawkmoth would kill for the power I have.” Her ring glowed brighter. “And I’d kill him to keep this power to myself.” A wicked smirk came over the girl’s face. 
“Is this Hawkmoth one of Earth’s villains?”, Razer asked, Hal didn’t know how to answer. This is the first time he’s even heard of Paris having a supervillain, he and the other league members prided themselves on knowing almost every bad guy, every hero, and every vigilante. How was he supposed to say, that there was something like this going on in a city on Earth that he and he’s guessing the other league members don’t know about? 
Then a giant red arm stretched out and wrapped around a girl with long brunette hair. The girl then started screaming as she was brought closer to the red lantern girl. “Well Lila, looks like you’re in trouble...Maybe you should call your best friend to come help you...Go on Lila, call Ladybug.I’ll wait.”, Marinette said in a cold menacing voice. 
‘Ladybug?’, Hal thought, ‘She’s gotta be their hero. Why did she never reach out to the League?’ He observed everyone of the kids, all of them were terrified, but they seemed almost used to it. If something like this was a regular occurrence, then he’s been doing his job wrong. He looked back at the brunette girl being held hostage, she looked annoyed?
Then she said, “Ladybug will come and save me, just wait.” Marinette laughed and flew closer to the girl, their faces centimeters apart. “Oh Lila, it’s pathetic that you think that. Because I know for a fact, Ladybug isn’t coming.” She then dropped Lila, only to catch her by the arm with her construct. Marinette’s grin turned bloodthirsty and there was a sickening snap. Lila landed on the ground, clutching her arm and sobbing. He saw at least two bends in her arm, one was definitely her elbow, the other was in her forearm. She was then pulled into the center of the group of teens, forming a shield to protect her from the red lantern. 
“What makes you so sure that Ladybug’s not coming?”, a femine voice yelled, all eyes turned to a red haired girl with big glasses. “Ladybug always comes to save us! She’ll stop you, you big bully!”, the girl shouted. Some of the teens looked emboldened by her words, others looked like they wanted her to shut her mouth. Hal watched as this red lantern girl began laughing, a long and hearty laugh. 
“Oh wow Sabrina!”, Marinette laughed. “ You’re speaking up to me! But not to Chloe? Why?” The laughter stopped. “Because you think Ladybug’s coming? Big, strong Ladybug’s coming to save the day? Newsflash! The only thing that’s being saved is me savoring the sounds of your suffering. As I get my revenge for all the suffering you and everyone else has put me through for the past few years of my life!” Marinette began to glow bright red.
“Marinette!”, a male voice yelled out, all eyes turned to see a teenage boy in a catsuit standing on the roof of the school. All the students began cheering and there were multiple yells of “It’s Chat Noir!” “Chat Noir’s come to save us!” “Go Chat Noir!” 
This Chat Noir pulled a staff from his belt and then used it to jump down to get on the ground level with the rest of the teens.
“W-what happened?”, he asked, he looked at the middle group of teens, “Why is she an akuma?” None of them looked like they could answer, most of them looked ashamed, Alya and a boy in a red cap looked angry, while the brunette just had an annoyed look in her eyes as she cried about her arm. 
“You really want to know?”, Marinette growled, she pointed a finger at the teens, “My so called friends decided that I needed to be punished!” she made air quotes, “ After I punched Lila for making fun of my parents death! Not only that she basically told me to kill myself so I could see them again!” Hal tossed a disgusted look at the brunette girl, then Marinette started to laugh, “After I gave that bitch what she deserved, my classmates threw me into a janitor’s closet and locked me in there!” Her laughter turned into cackles and Hal felt an uneasy feeling in his gut.
“Then this glorious power came to me in a blazing red ball of light”, she smiled so sweetly, as if she was talking about a happy memory. She clenched her fist and brought it close to her heart, “The power to get my revenge on everyone who’s ever wronged me.” She stopped laughing and stared into Chat Noir’s eyes, “like you.”
Hal heard a couple of gasps, the blonde boy took a step back, “Me? How have I ever wronged you?”, he yelled. Marinette scoffed, her ring began glowing and she glared at him, “How you ask? Every time you goof off on the job. Everytime you flirt with Ladybug, instead of focusing on the battle. Everytime you do anything else other than your fucking job!” 
She flew closer and closer to him, then started poking him in the chest, “because of you, I’ve had to watch my family and friends die over and over again! And now, my parents are dead and they’re never coming back! And you weren’t there! You want to say you’re a hero but you’re never there!”, she was yelling in his face now. 
“You want the fame and glory that comes with being a hero without doing any of the damn work! People die, and you don’t even care!”,she pulled her fist back and Chat Noir couldn’t block her punch in time. He was sent flying backwards, then he flipped his body around and landed on his feet. 
“You can’t blame me for your parents death! If I was there I would’ve helped save them!”, he ran over to where some rubble was, grabbing a few decent sized pieces he threw them up in the air and hit them with his staff like a baseball. The pieces flew at her, she crossed her arms over her chest and made a shield. 
Behind her shield she yelled back, “You’re not listening to me!” He kept hitting pieces of rubble and launching them at her, not leaving her a chance to attack. Hal then noticed that he was using the rubble as a distraction, she was too busy using her shield to protect herself to realize that Chat was getting closer.
By the time she noticed, Chat Noir was right in front of her with his staff, he jumped into the air, staff raised and slammed it down on her head. Her shield broke and she fell to the ground clenching her head with both hands. She yelled in pain and took in a deep breath of air, she let her head go and cracked her neck. She smirked at Chat Noir, “Is that all you got?” 
Chat Noir glared and then charged at her with his staff, “Hal, shouldn’t we be doing something?”, Razer’s voice snapped Hal back to reality. “You’re right.” Hal looked at the numerous teenagers watching the fight, “We have to get the kids out of there, we’ll have to get the middle group after everyone else, it’s too risky to the rest of the kids.” He said, Razer nodded his head, “You’re right. You get one group while I get another?” The green lantern gave his friend a thumbs up and then they split up.
Hal flew close to a small group of kids, a blonde pigtailed girl noticed them, and let out a sigh of relief. “Thank god, the Justice League is here.”, she whispered loud enough for Hal and her friends to hear. Hal nodded at them and put a finger to his lips, they got the memo and were silent. “I’m going to get you all out of here while she’s distracted, in order for me to do that I need you all to be very quiet. Give me a thumbs up if you understand.”, he said. They all gave him a thumbs up. He looked back over at the red lantern, she was still fighting Chat Noir, looks like he was trying to lure her out of the school, but she wasn’t taking the bait.
Looking back at the teens, he gave them the follow me gesture and led them to the entrance he came through. “Ok, all of you are going to run home to safety.”, he said, they all nodded and began rushing through the entrance, Hal turned around and was about to go back into the school when he felt a hand grab his wrist. He looked over his shoulder and saw the blonde girl was grabbing him, “Please...Please help Marinette! I think her akuma is in her ring, or her earrings! She never takes those off!, she pleaded. 
“I-I will do my best to help your friend.”, he said. ‘What’s an akuma?’, he thought. She nodded and walked out the school, giving him one last look before she was gone. Hal turned around, “Razer, if we’re gonna take her down we gotta do it now.”, he said into his ring. 
Razer’s voice came through, “I agree, I managed to sneak a lot of the children to safety.” Hal looked up, he was right, it looked like there were only a handful of students that weren’t in the middle group left. “Ok, what do we do when we get all of them out? Like how do we take her out?”, Hal said aloud, he thought back to his adventures when he first met Razer.
Razer had been a formidable opponent, strong, cunning, and he had been able to break through his constructs easily. But he was still vulnerable to physical attacks! But it still took him a while to get the best of the then red lantern. Hal groaned, he really didn’t want to fight a little girl. “Ok, we’ll focus on the rest of the kids, then we get the middle group of kids. After that...I’ll draw her fire and serve as a distraction helping Chat Noir, then you get her in a bubble!” 
Razer nodded his head and was about to say something, when Hal felt two hands push him away from where he was hidden. After landing on his behind, he looked up to see a bright red car where he once was. The car disappeared into thin air and he heard a demented laugh. He looked over at the red lantern, her eyes glowing bright red as she smirked and constructed a crown of crimson light, hovering above her head. 
“Well looky here.”, she grinned, “another fake hero’s come to play!” Her crown dissipated, a manic gleam shown in her eyes. “I’ll play with you later, right now I have a cat to skin.” 
She looked over her shoulder, Hal followed her gaze. Cat boy wasn’t doing so well, he was heaving and looked like he was going to fall over at any minute. Using his baton to support him, a brave look on his face, he stared his opponent down. “Come and get me….Purrincess.”, he breathed out. 
“Aww, look at that! Kitty thinks he has claws!”, Marinette cooed. She summoned a morning star with a giant head of spikes. Then she said with an expressionless look on her face. “How cute.” Her entire body started to glow like a light bulb. 
“Marinette! What the class did was horrible, but this isn’t you ”, The ombre haired girl with glasses spoke up. Marinette’s glow seemed to flicker, but only slightly. This time coming back brighter. “Alya, you and Nino are free to leave and I won’t hunt you down. But if you try and stop me, you’ll burn where you stand.” 
The girl, Alya, didn’t move, she stood her ground and stared Marinette down. “Fine then.”, Marinette growled. Her eyes glow so bright that Hal could barely make out her face, he narrowed his eyes and formed a barrier around the teens. 
Hal looked at Razer, “New plan, I’ll get her attention and you rescue the kids.  Razer nodded, and flew away from Hal. The green lantern turned his head to look back at the teens, Marinette was still glowing red and was now swinging the Morningstar up and around her head. He flew over immediately, yelling “Hey little red!” 
Marinette whipped her head around and Hal was stunned. Her eyes...they were pitch black with glowing red irises. He’s only seen that look on a red lantern once before. Back when Aya had been attacked by a manhunter. Razer’s rage had become so strong that he was able to use his powers in front of two blue lanterns and then went on to destroy the manhunter. Almost nothing had been left of that robot. Hal made a shield and whispered into his ring.  “Razer, you ready?”
“I am ready, just tell me when.”, Razer’s voice said coolly. Then Marinette stopped moving, her morning star vanished, her ring began to glow ominously. The glow engulfed her hand and she made another  a construct. 
“Wait, what is th-”, Hal’s question was cut off by a yo-yo construct hitting him in his face. He groaned and held his poor aching forehead, then shouted, “Who uses a yo-yo in a fight!” 
His only response was a death glare from the little lantern, ‘Why does it feel like Diana is glaring at me.’, was all he had time to think before Marinette began spinning the yo-yo until it became nothing but a whirring blur at her side. Hal turned his shield into a bubble surrounding himself in the green construct. Marinette then threw the yo-yo at him and it immediately wrapped itself around the bubble. The bubble started to crack only to disappear and the yo-yo had him. He winced as his arms were tucked tightly against his sides. “Aw come on!”, he groaned. Then she smirked at him, a sinister evil smirk...Who taught this kid how to be scary?!
 She then pulled the yo-yo’s string, pulling him along with it. Then she began spinning as she pulled him. Suddenly he was being spun around like a toy, then she finally let the yo-yo go. Why was he still tied up and flying through the air? How did she have this much control over her constructs? And why did he feel proud? Oh god was he turning into Batman? 
He struggled to free himself from the yo-yo, but it wouldn’t budge. Then he landed in a building. He felt his body crash through a window and heard screams, after a rough landing into an office cubicle  he felt the tightness of his binding disappear. He was free. He sat up and groaned, “That’s going to leave a mark.”
He felt a giant tremor rip through the building he was in and instinctively made a bubble to surround him. Just in time to see Marinette glaring at him, a big red automatic gun resting on her shoulder. She had a wicked look on her face as she aimed the gun at him and began letting out a barrage of red bullets.
“Look, you’re hurting I get it, but this is not the way to deal with that pain.”, Hal said calmly, staring at the small lantern girl in the eye. He saw the pure rage falter and a scared child was looking at him.  
“Princess please listen to him!”, Cat Boy pleaded as he limped over to them, the scared child looked so horrified at the sight of the boy...she was going to run. Hal immediately dropped his bubble and summoned a lasso, he threw it and caught her. She yelled and began thrashing around, trying to get the rope off of her. Then she broke free in a bright flash of crimson light. Only for her red glow to disappear completely and she began to fall to the ground.
Hal immediately summoned a platform to try and catch her, but he was too late. A blue bubble surrounded her and stopped her from falling.
Hal’s eyes trailed upward, an apologetic Razer was descending down to the floor he was on. “Took you long enough.”, Hal laughed, only to wince as his lungs stretched against his ribs. Razer landed on the ground next to him and helped him up.
“My apologies, there were innocents in need.” Razer wrapped Hal’s arm around his shoulder and the green lantern winced. Hal looked to a few feet in front of him and saw the tiny red lantern kicking and pounding against the sides of the blue bubble holding her. “Let me out!”, she screamed. “Let me out!” She slumped down to her knees and leaned against the bubble, she  punched it once more. Her shoulders started to shake and he heard soft sniffles and whimpers. “Let me out.”, she cried softly as  she banged on the bubble.

Reunited (Razaya Week Day 1)
(Here, have this little fic. May it bring some joy to some Fanterns.)
She is alone in a field of stark whiteness, little shards of moving images snowing down around her like ripped-up paper.
“Where am I?” she asks, trying to look down at herself. She is a ghostly imprint on the landscape, one that takes the form of a foreign-yet-familiar body. “Who am I?” No one is there to answer.
She is dead, erased from existence.
Is she?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A vividly red shooting star tumbles into the atmosphere, streaking across the sky with what would have been a dramatic screech. Had there been anyone there to witness it, they would have been shocked by the impressive variety and vitriol of Razer's curse words. He had, after all, been two years with the less-than-polite Red Lanterns. 
Normally, the flare of anger would have given him a power boost for a moment. But the red energy making up his shields is flickering and fading in patches. He can feel it bleeding out of him, leaving him chilled to the bone. There is little heat to warm him this high in the atmosphere. And barely enough oxygen to breathe.
Zamaron, spread out beneath him, is a fantasia in violet crystal. He can almost appreciate the beauty of it. Except, of course, for the fact that he's more falling than flying and landing is going to hurt.
"Oh, Grotz." he mumbles as he hits the ground.
The last thing his eyes register is a Star Sapphire leaning over him before he passes out.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Someone is there in this dream-plane, someone who glows with shifting reddish colours. She floats over to the newcomer, a man far taller than her in angular red armour. His eyes are closed with pain, face inscribed with lines of grief and sorrow as well as the bold black marks that slash his cheeks.
Unlike her, he looks solid. Defined. Real. And she remembers his face from somewhere.
"Aya," he whispers, staring down at the image in his hand. It holds an image that matches her shape - a green-and-white android with determined blue eyes. She watches the memory play out (this one must be his - it is complete and clear, unlike her shattered glimpses). 
Aya. That was her name once. 
'new designation accepted' echoes in the endless emptiness. A shard is at her feet and she picks it up, pressing it close to her as the man does with his own. Green Lantern Hal Jordan gave her that name. 
She is a nav-computer, installed on the craft The Interceptor.
Is she?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
His eyelids slowly blink open, shutting again at the bright glare of the lights above him. "Take it easy." a familiar voice admonishes. "You fell from quite the height."
Now fully conscious, he slowly pushes up to a sitting position. This must be Zamaron's infirmary - all around him is crystalline violet and sterile white. He himself is sitting on a bed, armour gone along with his power. It lies in pieces on the ground as he had expected. Rage can fuel him no longer. "Queen Aga'po."
Reluctantly, he looks up to meet the solid navy-blue eyes of the Star Sapphires' queen. There is no anger in them, nor anything but calm questioning. "Razer. Why have you returned to this kingdom? As I understand it, the universe-ending threats have all been eliminated."
A touch of worry laces her tone. Atrocitus had never made it here, but the Aya-Monitor... He winces at the memory. Ghia'ta had saved Hal and paid with her life. All because of a battle Aya had instigated. Because he had hurt her. Because her pain had driven her to madness.
Aga'po is more perceptive than he had assumed. Or perhaps the 'untold power' that the Guardians' race had possessed still left traces in her. They had been one once, she had said so.
"Ghia'ta's death was not your fault. Any more than it was the Aya creature's, or Hal Jordan's, or Carol Ferris'." The Star Sapphire sighed. "She died for love, as she would have wanted. And her spirit lives on within all of us. Hating you, her or anyone else for it would not bring her back."
That is enough to break him.
He buries his face in his hands, tears falling from his crystal-blue eyes. "Then you are far wiser than I ever was." he whispers in a voice thick with pain and sorrow. 
Ilana's death had driven him to rage and hate, and that had only ended in a self-destructive path that had blown a world to dust and killed many Lanterns. Aya's 'death' had sent him into a cold numbness, and he had lied through his teeth to her. "I do not love you." But his rage burns no longer. His ring is dull and quiescent on his hand, a mere ornament.
Aga'po places one delicate hand on his head. "And I know why you are here. Tell me - why do you believe she still lives?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He appears again in her dreamscape, this time sitting cross-legged on the ground. Another memory is cradled like a precious jewel in his hands. She still cannot remember who he is, but she recognises the image he holds. A Manhunter.
'emotions detected' and another shard falls at her feet. She had tried to teach one but it had refused to learn. She knew she could learn, grow, reach beyond her shell of 'wires and scrap metal'. Who had said that to her? She remembers it hurting, but the pain later smoothed over.
She fits the jagged edge of the shard into the other one, one still in her hand. Time does not exist in this void, but she feels that it has not been long since it came to her. Again he has sparked knowledge of a part of her.
She is an artificial intelligence, a computer programmed to think like a person.
Is she?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"No being as resourceful as she could truly have been destroyed by something as simple as a computer virus." Aga'po looks sceptical - to her it must seem that he is grasping at straws. "She is a living creature!" he says desperately. "Hal proved it! She was created from a spark of the Will entity - she has a soul!"
That catches the queen's attention. "Truly?" Razer nods, head bowed. "She is a being merely housed within circuits and programming. A computer virus deletes code, but it could not possibly have deleted Aya."
The Zamaronian sighs. “As much as I wish to believe that such a thing could happen, it seems to me like only wishful thinking.”
“It is all I have.” Razer whispers, eyes icy with resolve. “And I will hunt from here to Oa and the forgotten reaches of the universe if I must. But I will find her. She is out there, I know it. Because I have hope.” Aga’po’s eyes widen as her throne room flares up with brilliant blue light. “Razer of Volkreg, you have great hope within you.”
“Welcome to the Blue Lantern Corps.” 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He has not returned for what feels like years although, in reality, little time has passed. She holds the memory pieces closer to her, trying to warm herself. It is so terribly cold out here in this void.
She wants him to come back. She wants more pieces of the puzzle that is herself. And she wants to be more than a disembodied consciousness.
‘a body like this?’ whispers from the silence, another piece falling into place as her components had. She remembers standing on the table as Hal and Kilowog stare open-mouthed at her. And he is there in her memory. She still cannot remember his name, but she feels his importance.
It was what she had become because she had wanted to be one of them. To save lives, to be a hero and to make the universe better.
She is a Green Lantern, even if she is ringless and not truly alive.
Is she?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“I didn’t know that the Blue Lanterns existed.” comments a Star Sapphire, shocked. He does not really listen, too busy staring open-mouthed at the blue ring - blue like Saint Walker’s - that has chosen him.
Can he really be one of them? He is a killer, a truly hateful creature as Atrocitus had made him. But he is not the man he was. And he does have hope, hope like a bonfire in his heart that keeps him warm. He knows she is out there waiting.
He looks up at the queen. “The ring knows it too.”
Aga’po smiles. “I am glad.” she comments cryptically. But he understands.  She takes his hand, holding it up as she examines the ring. “And blue rather suits you. But you look tired. Tomorrow we will see what we can do. Now you must rest.”
He wants to fight it. But Aya will not appreciate it if he kills himself in his desperate search. Who will find her if he cannot? So he lets the Sapphires lead him away to a room, lets exhaustion catch up with him. And despite the tortured dreams he knows to await him, he sleeps.
He does not wake until days later.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He has returned again, this time glowing a soft blue. But the memory he holds now causes him pain. She doesn’t like it.
It is her, only tar-blue and with a poisonous buzz in her voice. She sees herself destroying planets. Sees herself summoning Atrocitus and setting him against poor Carol. Sees Ghia’ta dying. And worst of all, his mangled body in her arms.
Another piece, this one far more intense and alive. ‘i have eliminated all emotion’ and she knows what she has done with a shock of intense horror. Making herself a soulless killer who melded with the Anti-Monitor. She destroyed so many worlds. Likely murdered so many people.
She is a monster and she is unforgivable.
Is she?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The portal opens, as he knew it would. 
Aga’po shoves him through, face drawn with the effort of keeping it open. “Go to her.” she gasps and suddenly he is alone in a black void. He is near the site of the Aya-Monitor’s last stand, space empty around him. She must be somewhere here. Else the portal wouldn’t have come through at all.
Beside him is the decapitated head of a Manhunter - the last remnants of the formidable force that the Guardians had created. This one must have been missed in the cleanup. It is dull and lifeless now.
He remembers all too well how she had returned in a Manhunter body. Its circuits had been compatible with her and she had used it as a last-ditch effort to survive. 
He takes the head, tucking it under his arm. What worked once might just work again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who am I? What am I? She grapples with questions far bigger than she can answer, desperate to know the truth. If only the last parts would fall into place, but she needs HIS help. 
And as if she had summoned him, he is here again. “Aya!” he yells, voice raw with desperation. “Aya, come back to me.” With a sudden outburst of colour, her world explodes. falling and falling and flying and she is
ALIVE
She is Aya. She is all of them and none of them - devil and angel, destroyer and creator. She is not mere programming, circuits and wire. She has a soul and emotions and she loves. She knows his name now, knows him better than she knows herself. And he calls and now she is real...
she answers.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Razer. Razer!”
Her voice emanates from the damaged ball of circuitry in his hands. “You came back for me.” she whispers in wonder. And he does not care that she is housed in wires and scrap metal, because she is Aya and she is here and she is his.
“Always.”

headverse update with a bunch of Lantern stuff and a little bonus Mystik U/Dark Universe/Hellblazers stuff
so uh, spoilers for GLTAS and YJ:Phantoms, but I really, really love Razer, and he’s really only got the one storyline, so I’m bringing that in mostly intact since the broad strokes actually fit pretty well with the broad strokes of the headverse’s War of Light. I think Razer and other Lanterns using two simultaneous rings might go by “Mosaic Lanterns” in this canon to tie them in with John’s leader role after Oa is abandoned by the Guardians. Razer is of course a Red-Blue Lantern (Guy’s Red-Green, a “Christmas Lantern” though pretty much everyone he meets during this period has no idea what Christmas is.)
As for the rest, I want to do the original New Guardians eventually, but these are the New Guardians as hosts to the various Lantern Entities that power each Corp as manifestations of their core emotion. Aya’s also pretty much a straight port from GLTAS, with the addition of my headcanon which I think the show was headed towards before it got cancelled that she’s actually Ion itself, rendered amnesiac or otherwise disconnected from her true nature as an entity by whatever the Scarred Guardian did to transform her into an A.I. My only major additions are her leading the New Guardians (as much as she can, they’re a rowdy bunch) and having a fully Ion form and a hybrid Ion-Aya form that looks like a mermaid because, idk, I think it’s cute, who doesn’t like robot mermaids? I should draw Lori Lemaris
Everyone else is pretty quick to go through: Sinestro isn’t pictured here, but he and later [redacted] are incredibly attuned to Parallax, wielding the full power of their entity with little or no loss of base personality.
Kim Jeong-Ho or James Kim is a Korean-Canadian man whose daughter Lizzie was murdered by William Hayes, the supervillain known as Harm and an acolyte of the Church of Blood. While Rankorr received the blessing of Atros in the form of a Red Ring, Kim’s “baptism” is a point of contention with the Brothers of Blood, and despite all drawing from the same source of power, Kim fucking hates those guys.
Nicole Morrison is an Ethiopian-American transwoman, raised in Livonia, Michigan, bonded to Adara while being held captive by Winston Woods, a serial killer who target young trans women of color. She and Blanca are quite close, often partnering up on missions, bringing out the best of hope and willpower. Nicole also allows Aya to more easily access her full powers as Ion.
Abraham Pointe is an incel and a host of The Predator, half of the Star Sapphire’s Violet Entity. He spent two years stalking Lisa, a casino worker he’d never actually talked to, his possession by Predator causing a massive incident as he destroyed a portion of the casino and attached hotel trying to find and profess his love to her. Being talked down by Carol Ferris and Jill Pearlman, two of Earth’s Star Sapphires, Abe broke from The Predator’s influence and apologized to Lisa. He wanted to be exorcised of the entity entirely, but the Predator seemed to need him. It wanted to find someone...the Violet Light’s other entity, The Lovebird, itself living in a mysterious host deep in Thanagarian space, Khea Taram-Ka...Chay-Ara’s estranged mother.
Ophidian, greedy as ever, has a couple hosts over the years: Hector Hammond was the first, with his entity hiding out as “brain tumor” that was supposedly giving him psychic powers and driving him to attack Green Lanterns, specifically Hal Jordan. Years down the line, after Hector’s many encounters with Larfleeze, both of them were disappointed to find Ophidian drawn to another candidate entirely: Alexander Luthor Jr.
The Proselyte is Tahmaseb Shirazi, living in Corto Maltese under the named “Shane Thompson” and working as medic despite having several medical degrees. Encountering a Starro drone trapped alive in a jar, years after the nascent Justice League fought its progenitor in the same area, Shane freed Jarro. This act of compassion caused the Proselyte to latch onto them, their entire personality being subsumed in the needs of the entity. Jean Loring appeared and teleported Shane away, as this Entity was necessary to the Tribe’s survival in the days to come...
and then up in the corner a few quick sketches: Tim Hunter, Misty Kilgore, and Lucius Reynolds, the future leaders of Earth’s Homo Magi.

A Lantern’s Rage PART 4
Prev Beginning
Based on @cornholio4 ‘s Red Lantern Prompt
______________________________________________________________
When Razer stared into the young girl’s eyes, he looked beyond the anger. What he found was heartbreak, despair, and he saw heartbreak, grief, and hopelessness. He recognized all those feelings, and then for a moment a face flickered over hers...his face. His glare. It was like looking into his past. 
“Oh man. What am I going to do with you kid?”, Razer heard Hal groan. “Do I take you to Oa for your crimes  as a Red Lantern? Turn you over to Earth authorities? Or to the League?” He looked over at the Green Lantern who was running his fingers through his hair. He looked back at the Red Lantern, she looked so defeated and still so angry. 
“Hal”, Razer spoke, the human turned to look at him, “I believe I have a solution. What if I take her to Odym, help her overcome her rage and repent for her actions.” Hal looked like he was thinking it over, he sighed.
“We’ll have to check with the guardians, and the league.”, he said, his ring started glowing and he lifted his hand close to his face. “Hey Big S, turns out the red lantern was a teenage girl.” He walked away from Razer to continue with his conversation. Razer looked back at her,  she was still sitting down in the bubble construct he made. 
He sighed, aimed his ring at the bubble and unclenched his fist, the blue bubble disappeared into thin air. Immediately, the tiny human girl threw herself at him, he jumped out of the way. She growled at him, “You aren’t taking me anywhere! Not until I make those heartless idiots pay!” 
Razer rose his hands up, showing her he meant no harm, her glare faltered for a split second before hardening again. “I am Razer of the Blue Lantern Corp, I am here to help. What is your name?”, he asked, extending his hand in the way Hal used when introducing himself to others. He assumed it was an earth custom, then she slowly began to extend her hand out towards him. When she grabbed his hand, her glare disappeared, and was replaced by an almost blank stare. He still saw anger, cautiousness, and a touch of fear. 
“I’m Marinette Dupain-Cheng...of the Red Lantern Corp.”, she said a little too roughly. 
Razer smiled gently at her and knelt down in front of her, “It’s nice to meet you.” 
________
Marinette stared numbly at her ringless left hand, it had been a week since the ring was removed from her hand. The so-called Guardians had it taken from her but she was to stay on Odym to train under Razer. The ring never left her side though, no matter how far it was taken it came right back to her. Razer said it was because she still had a great rage in her, and until she could let go of this rage the ring would keep coming back. 
Despite the meaning behind the ring, she missed it. She missed it’s warmth, it’s light, the feeling of not being alone...she missed it just as much as she missed Tikki. She frowned and rubbed her bare earlobes, a new habit she developed recently. Tikki couldn’t come with her, so she had to give up being Ladybug. “Give up?”, she muttered, “Not like I had a choice.” Tikki made the decision to leave. 
“Your entire life has been changed, you need time to heal from this change. And as much as I want to be with you.”, Tikki said as she hugged Marinette’s cheek. “I can’t go with you. But I can guarantee that when you come back, I’ll be here.”
Marinette started to cry only for the door to burst open and a stunned Razer was pointing his ring at the scared Kwami.  Marinette immediately hid Tikki behind her,but then Tikk flew out towards the blue lantern. 
“Thank you for helping my Marinette”, she could hear the smile in Tikki’s voice. “Please protect her while I’m gone.” She bowed her head and Razer bowed his head. 
“I swear on my honor as a blue lantern that I will protect her.”, Razer vowed. Tikki then flew over to Marinette and hugged her cheek tight. Then kissed Marinette’s forehead.  Marinette started to tear up as she removed the earrings from her ears, and handed them to the Kwami.
Tikki took them and gave one final smile to Marinette before flying off into the night. 
Her eyes began to water and she clenched her fists, then threw herself on her bed. She grabbed her pillow and shoved it into her face, “AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!”, she screamed into the soft mass. She removed the pillow and sat up straight in the bed. Her eyes stinging from the unshed tears and she quickly blinked any would be tears away. Pulling the pillow close to her chest, she rose up out of her bed and walked over to a window that overlooked the Blue Lantern Corp’s home base. 
She sighed and her shoulders slumped, “If I wasn’t stuck on this planet, I might actually enjoy the view.” One and reached up and rubbed an earlobe, “You would’ve liked this place, Tikki.” 
She hated that she was here. She missed Paris. She missed Tikki. She missed Alya and Nino. She missed Adrien and Luka. She missed Nadja and Manon. She even missed Chloe. Sighing, she looked at a small glowing device that rested on a table in the middle of the room. She could talk to anyone of them if she wanted to, but what was she supposed to say exactly? That she’s sorry for destroying half the city? She’s sorry for traumatizing everyone? Or how about that she’s sorry that she was so upset that she literally became a mini rage god hell bent on killing their entire class? That would definitely go well. Oh and how could she forget, “I’m sorry for becoming a monster and then leaving without so much as a word because some alien police force wants me to repent for my sins!”
Then she heard a loud beep, oh great her “mentor” was here for their daily walk around the grounds. Groaning, she walked over to her door and opened it. Aaaand there he was, Razer, she gave an obviously fake smile and said, “Well isn’t this a surprise! Razer! How nice to see you!” She then gave him a deadpan look and attempted to close the door slightly, “Thanks for stopping by but I really don’t feel like talking to anyone right now. Bye-bye!”
A bright blue hand construct stopped the door from closing, she glared at it and it’s owner. Razer smiled at her and she found it a bit hard to keep glaring at him. She groaned and stepped outside her room, “Let’s get this over with.”
“I won’t take up much time, today we are expecting some visitors.”, he smiled at her, then started to walk away. Then he stopped, looked at her expectedly and she begrudgingly walked beside him. They walked in silence for a while before she asked, “These visitors...are they from Earth?”
“Yes.”, was the only response she got. 
“Are they here for me?”, she asked, this time looking up at him as they strolled in a hallway. Razer looked like he was contemplating how to respond.
“They are here to discuss what happened and the situation in Paris with the miraculous.”, her eyes widened and she stopped walking. Razer stopped a few steps ahead of her.
“They know I’m- I was Ladybug?”, she asked. Razer shook his head, “No, but they believe you know how to contact her. Your friend, Alya, and partner, Chat Noir, both said that if anyone knew how to “reach” Ladybug, it would be you.” 
She breathed out a sigh of relief, before staring Razer in the eye, You didn’t tell them?” Razer shook his head again, “It is not my secret to share. And I swore to your friend that I would protect you during your time here. I assumed that me sharing this information would be me breaking my promise.” She nodded her head as a show of gratitude.
“Thank you Razer.”, she said softly. Razer smiled at her and together they walked further down the hallway.
