The Four Core Starmen: Gavyn, Jack, Mikaal, and Will, defenders of Earth’s near-space and, oddly, Jack’s hometown of Opal City. Occasionally they’ll assist other teams, Jack gravitating to the modern Justice Society while Mikaal and Will tend towards the Justice League.

Gavyn is popular in Japan, even having toys and anime adaptations of their life, something the other didn’t know until Jack was looking for cartoons to watch with his son.

Finally someone in comics acknowledges how weirdly common despotic absolute monarchies are, headed by our HEROES! The Shi’ar, The Inhumans, Wakanda, Atlantis (both kinds), Paradise Island. For such a socially liberal medium you’d think that some democratic systems would be shown in place for these sorts of things

Thanks for the ask! Lol, it took a while to get to, but I eventually picked something. I am going to gush about Rhea Royce (my beloved) here because with her not having any POVs & all her actions being filtered through her kids' eyes is forcing me to not put a lot of her stuff that's harder to infer on page.

This will be wordy, I apologize in advance. This opened a flood gate I was unaware of.

Starting at the beginning, the opening was originally going to be way different. Before I figured out how I wanted to structure the fic, I had wanted to put a little...idk context? on the relationship with Rhea & Daemon & actually open up way earlier. What we have is a cold open, set a year after the death of Lord Yorbert Royce, where Daemon has been living permanently in King’s Landing for 3 years & its well-established the twins still like him & so Rhea brings them to see him sometimes. The OG opening, however, was going to be The Targaryen Visit after the twins' birth that I reference a few times.

Yorick did not know what that argument had been about, he did not want to burden mother with asking during her visits, but apparently Grandfather Yorbert had slapped Prince Daemon with the back of his hand before both men were wrestling on the high table until they had to be dragged apart. The prince had gone back to King’s Landing, tail between his legs, and only returned after the twins were born: the Targaryen trip to Runestone serving as both King Jaehaerys’s wish to see his great-grandchildren before his death and a way to force the apology of the Lord of Runestone. -- Yorick 3: Black and Bronze

"Now, you said yourself that Owen wasn't opposed to the next child being named for mother, none of that is as awkward as the old king looking you in the eye after you've explained wanting your fist son to have a Royce name, fully knowing he does not understand it, and then saying 'why are you all named like this?' Father told me he practically bit his tongue off to keep from asking why every third Targaryen is named Aegon." Aunt Rina descended into a fit of giggles before snorting, and then starting to laugh harder. A septa came and took Gavyn, letting her fully fold over to keep snickering at the unburied memory. "Oh Seven," she barely managed to get the words out between laughs, "I forgot it was King Jaehaerys!" Ella leaned forward in her chair, her arms rested on her knees. She had not heard the story of this first visit, at least not like this. She knew that Great-Grandfather Jaehaerys and Grandfather Baelon and Uncle Viserys and Aunt Aemma had come to visit when she and Yorick were born, and that all the men had fawned over Yorick…no one had ever said anything about this though. She furrowed her brows, listening quietly as her mother and aunt continued talking. "'What kind of name is Yorick Targaryen?'" Mother said, mocking whichever of father’s relatives had asked the question, "the one I picked." -- Rhaella 2: Family Ties

Ultimately, I am glad I didn't go with that, because a lot of finer details surrounding it have changed since I wrote chapter 1, but it makes some things get lost in the shuffle.

So the marriage.

I kind of make reference to it in the summary, but it's maybe not clear. At the start of things, Rhea was actually totally into the match. Because think about it: he's the grandson of a well-liked monarch, his grandmother was friends with her great-aunt, his dad was set to be heir to the throne (& his brother inheriting after that), his brother is married to their shared cousin who she has a great relationship with, he's her age (which, given Westeros, is kind of a miracle), he poses zero threat to her inheritance, & he's charismatic as all hell. They hadn't met before this, so she was jazzed, honestly! Then the wedding comes & she finds out he had to get drunk to want to sleep with her, he makes it clear the next day he regrets "getting it up and thinking of Westeros," & he resents her for the crime of *checks notes* not being Valyrian.

She did, initially, try to make Daemon like her, but it wasn't going anywhere, even after she obviously got pregnant from ther wedding night. So she abandoned delusion & just decided to match energies, because that's what she's good at. If at first you don't succeed in making your weird, inbred, nepo-baby husband like you...clap back. As soon as she didn't roll over & try even harder to make him like her/appease him, they mostly just fought or ignored each other, & things didn't really start deteriorating to the point we see in fic (and in 5 minutes of episode 5) until 1: a physical fight with Yorbert & 2: the twins were born not exactly how Daemon envisioned (see: both male & Distinctly Only Valyrian Looking).

Rhea has, pretty much, made peace with having a marriage of Mutual Resentment, but she still struggles with wanting more/better on occasion. Which, y'know, fair. She's been put in an incredibly exhausting situation of being a married single mom to 2 kids, & yet she really only gets to spend time with 1 because her selfish prick of a husband only sees their son as a tool to get what he wants.

“He insists on taking our son and doesn’t even spend enough time with him to know that’s horse shit?! Seven hells, why am I surprised? Why am I surprised?” Mother put her forehead in her hand, rubbing her temples with her fingers and thumb.

“The same reason everyone always is, the want for something better to be in him.” -- Rhealla 3: Bronze Fury

She isn't heartless or infallible, she wants, at the very least, partnership. She's not carrying any torches for him, but just the smallest crumb of (casual) intimacy & care would be nice. She still wants better than what she has.

There's also some projection issues. They're mostly minor (nothing as delusional as what Viserys has going on within my fic), & she's willing to listen to reason in regard to them, but they're there. Making peace does not mean coming out unscathed. 🤷🏻‍♀️

"With this kiss, I pledge my love, and take you for my lady wife."

While Elenda echoed Borros’s vow, Yorick glanced at his mother as she mumbled something under her breath. Her eyes were down, although he was not sure if they were on his brother in her lap or the floor, and her tight lips were curled ever so slightly.

"I think he will be good to her," Yorick whispered, "knowing Borros has been a comfort.” Lady Rhea looked at him, her face relaxing into a sad, gentle smile. As she looked back at Borros and Elenda, their lips parting with her focus finally returning to the ceremony, she squeezed Yorick’s hand. -- Yorick 4: Toppled Tower

Stuff like this is totally chill. Get reassured that "hey, this guy is fucking normal, he'll probably be at least friends with his wife" & just relax into knowing they'll be happy at least. It's all copacetic. She's a little less chill later...

"I had not intended for the confrontation to take quite that direction, regardless, there are still things we must discuss," Uncle Viserys walked towards them as he spoke, "in an effort to keep Daemon away from the throne, I will be naming Rhaenyra as my heir."

"And I will swear fealty to her, of course. You've no need to worry about my loyalties." Mother replied.

"Of course I have no reason to worry! And I suppose formalities must not be overlooked, even in the face of a betrothal. How would it look to the other Lords of The Realm if you were exempt, after all?" He said with a chuckle, good humor returning with each word he spoke.

"Betrothal?"

"Between Yorick and Rhaenyra."

"Oh!" Something akin to panic entered Lady Rhea’s amber eyes, and she faltered over her words for a moment before continuing. "Apologies, Your Grace, I thought Lord Boremund already told you."

"Told me what?"

"Last year we spoke of betrothing Yorick and Shireen. He spent so much time with you that I assumed he must have mentioned it. I would have said something before now had I known he left the matter to me." Ella fought to keep her face neutral as her mother lied. Why was she telling him this? She and Yorick were not going to have to get married, things like this could wait. -- Rhaella 5: First Blood

She basically sees a genderswapped version of her life flash before her eyes & voluntarily goes down into the trenches in order to fight for Yorick not to marry Rhaenyra. It's a baseless (if successful) attempt to save him from what she got saddled with: a marriage of mutual resentment. He and Rhaenyra are friends, they've only ever liked each other, but the fear was still there because "this is what happens when a Targaryen marries An Outsider," & mom instinct takes over. Imo: she did save him because a Yornyra marriage would be toxic as hell, but in universe no one fucking knows that. She just politically shot herself in the foot for zero reason.

Y e a h.

Rhea Royce, my beloved. She is the more functional parent who cares for her kids & tries to set healthy boundaries & give them functional relationships to people (& their dragons), but she has layers. Layers of resentment & complex love & long dead pining & irrevocably screwed up perceptions of things. She loves her family, she hates her husband, she wants something from him but she doesn't even know what that is anymore.

Your honor, I love her.

first batch update in awhile bc they’ve been building up on me:

Sahar and Lara, shortly after Sahar got her powers and came into conflict with Lara over the “Captain Comet situation”

Prince Gavyn, one of the two alien Starman, along with Mikaal, with Jack and Will being (mostly) from Earth.

Honor Guest, the Silencer. I wanted to play with her overall look and exact powerset a bit, but consider this mock dubiously canon

and ULTRA THE HUNTER, the only one sapient thing to appear in the Garden of Eternity other than Perpetua, and fellow parent to her child--Alpheus, Mobius, and Novus--in the endless early hypertime abyss in which archetype lack prototype and image lives as myth, myth as absolute reality. Tragedy would come into their lives as Perpetua erases Ultra from existence in a fit of rage. Only then realizing her absolute control over this newborn reality, she struggled to wish Ultra back into existence, each possibility and variant split between infinite possible worlds, this sudden burst of new universe not matter or anti-matter, dark matter or the stuff of dream, but all those things simultaneously, a primordial ocean screaming in pain, skies as red as blood...a single, floating tear from Perpetua’s weeping eye, soaking all that in.

It was into this that their children--the World Forger, the Anti-Monitor, and the Over-Monitor--would carve order out of chaos, at whatever cost necessary.

As for Perpetua, she lives beneath Paradise now, and only the truth of this reality will let those tears flow again....

The starman legacy is gigantic.

I always knew that the starman legacy was big but never really sat down to just count it you know? So today I did and holy shit it's fucking infinite, like it's not just a bunch of dudes going by starman and associates.

It's more like starman + phantom lady + star-spangled kid + girl of 1000 gimmicks/gimmic girl/gimmix?? + Manhuter + martian manhunter + brainwave + mist.

Here's the list of superheroes and btw this is by legacy and not family ties:

1) Ted knight - starman I

2) Sylvester Pemberton - star-spangled kid I, skyman I

3) Sandra Knight - phantom lady I

4) Dan Richards - manhunter I

5) Paul Kirk - manhuter II

6) Roh Kar - martian manhunter I

7) Arnold Munro - iron Munro I, gladiator one

8) Pat Dugan - Stripesy I , S.T.R.I.P.E I

9) Merry Pemberton - girl of 1000 gimmicks I

10) Doris Lee - starman II

11) The starman of 1951 - starman III

12) Mikaal Tomas - starman IV

13) Prince Gavyn - starman V

14) Henry King Jr - brainwave jr, brainwave II

15) Mark Shaw - manhuter III

16) Will Payton - starman VI

17) David knight - starman VII

18) Dee Tyler - phantom lady II

19) Jack Knight - starman VIII

20) Chase Lawer - manhunter VI

21) J'onn j'onzz - martian manhunter II

22) Courtney Whitemore - star-spangled kid II, star girl I, starwoman I (IX)

23) Stormy Knight - Phantom lady III

24) Jacqueline Pemberton - Gimmic girl, gimmix

25) Jennifer knight - phantom lady IV

26) Kirk DePaul - manhuter V

27) Kate Spencer - manhuter VI

28) M'gann M'orzz - miss martian, martian manhunter III

29) Jacob Colby - skyman II

30) Mike Dugan - Stripesy II, S.T.R.I.P.E II

31) Sophia Becker - Phantom lady V

32) Patricia Dugan - starwoman II (X)

33) Ramsey Robinson - manhuter VII

34) Kyle knight - mist III

35) Thom Kallor - Starboy - starman XI

36) Farris Knight - starman XII

12 starmans, 7 manhunters, 5 phantom ladies, 3 martian manhunters, 2 gimmic girls, 2 S.T.R.I.P.ES, 2 skymans, 2 star-spangled kids, 1 brainwave, 1 iron Munro and 1 mist.

I say only superheroes because a lot of these people have supervillain relatives, it's also interesting to note that this the oldest super powered lineage in DC because Ramsey Robinson is the great-great-grandson of Hugo Munro the protagonist of the 1930 novel called Gladiator (one of the inspirations for superman) by Philip Wylie.
