Heyooo! Happy holidays!!! This is part of LOSH holiday gift exchange and is for @spandexinspace!!! I had to go with querllyle, of course. I hope I did them some justice~~

Back Where we Belong

He remembered the flames flickering in his field of vision, the sounds of the outpost breaking, screens shattering and the shouts piercing through his ears. His own voice, panicked, looking for those that hadn’t made it to the vent.

Most of all, he remembered Brainy - feet still planted firmly on the ground, shield up, protecting the rest of them from the fire. But he didn’t know what expression Brainy held as the almost-blinding explosion went off.

He just knew that the flames never came close enough to the vent and that Brainy’s back was the last thing he saw.

xxxxx

Calling it Legion World, in Lyle’s opinion, made it sound more like an attraction than a base. Rumours had it that there were, in fact, plans to welcome tourists aboard at some point. The Legion had many fans, after all. A man as resourceful as Brande wouldn't miss out on this opportunity. Lyle didn't mind the idea; he wasn't one of the more marketable Legionnaires anyway and honestly he would prefer to keep it like that. Not because it would be more difficult for him to do his job - his espionage tactics relied on him not being seen at all, of course - but he wasn't a fan of being in the media spotlight as some of the others did.

"As long as it doesn't interrupt our work, I'm indifferent to it," Brainy said, after Lyle asked for his opinion. The places they both most frequented, such as the more advanced labs, wouldn't be open to the public.

It was as much as Lyle expected. If his work were to be interrupted, he was sure that Brainy would kick up more of a fuss about it. He might be a bit more accommodating than when Lyle first met him but he still had bite when it came to making sure that only competent people were present in the labs.

While Lyle had never needed Brainy's approval to work in the same vicinity - he had earned his own place there, thank you very much -  it did feel good to know that he was actively wanted there. Some might argue that it was simply that Brainy didn't mind anymore but Lyle knew better. There was a difference between Brainy working around you, maneuvering past you as if you were just another object that happened to be in his path, and actually making eye contact and asking for your opinion. "You don't think it will impact efficiency, do you Lyle?"

"It shouldn't. You know, unless one of your rabid fans manages to sneak in here." Lyle gave a sweeping gesture, towards the lab's benches and screens. "You know how they can be."

"Don't be ridiculous," said Brainy, turning back to his current project. Before his face was obscured, Lyle could swear that he saw Brainy's lips curl up for a fraction of a second. "I don't have 'rabid' fans."

"What, you didn't see the interviews?"

"No and I'm not interested in watching them." Wait for it…"Although I have had extracts of what they've said quoted to me. I don't think calling me a genius is an indicator of being a 'rabid' fan. It's factual." 

The casual confidence used to be a source of exasperation for Lyle but instead, somewhere along the line it turned into something endearing. Grife, he really had missed Brainy, hadn't he?

"Ah," said Brainy, stopping his tinkering  all of a sudden. "Might want to step back Lyle."

"Step back - ?"

There was a loud bang and flames erupted from the contraption Brainy had been trying to reconfigure. There was no delay with Brainy's shield coming up, so the Coluan stood there unphased, head tilted to the side.

Lyle could tell that Brainy was muttering to himself but he couldn't hear it. 

His ears were ringing. And the fire, the fire was all around him once again. Licking at Brainy's feet, wrapping its tendrils around them and pulling him in, right into the bright light. Out of Lyle's reach, out of reach from the barred up vent, its walls closing in -

"Lyle!" 

He blinked. There was a weight on both his shoulders...Brainy's hands were on them. He felt pressure on his knees too. When had Lyle gotten to the ground?

"Lyle?" 

"Oh...you're still here." He regretted saying the words almost immediately after they left his mouth. 

Brainy had looked mildly concerned before but now his expression grew more grim. His eyes searched at Lyle's own, like he was probing him. He could tell that Brainy had immediately jumped into problem-finding mode. 

"No, I mean I know you're here, Brainy," Lyle said, trying to course correct. "I know that you're back. Just...hard to believe sometimes."

And it was. Especially when not everyone had made it back. Not Candi, not Garth, not Jan. 

Brainy had made it though. Lyle had to focus on the real sensation of the hands on his shoulders. He had done the same thing when Brainy first returned.

Lyle was glad for it. He didn't know when Brainy became more comfortable with physical contact but each time he did it came both as a surprise and a comfort.

"It would be best if you got used to believing it soon," said Brainy. "Evidently, the Legion can't function to full capacity without me, so I won't be going anywhere again soon." He smiled. "I'll leave the disappearing acts to you, Norg." 

Letting out a breath, Lyle leaned forward until his forehead touched Brainy's own. He closed his eyes. Yes, this felt real, indeed. It would take a bit of time for those old nightmares to completely dissipate but he has a feeling he would get there.

"True. I'm sure I'll need it to dodge your fans. They wouldn't be happy if they saw us like this."

He felt Brainy stiffen and the Coluan drew back, cheeks flushed a darker green. "Ahem. Seems like you are well enough." He helped Lyle up, though he quickly averted his eyes and turned his attention to the partially damaged workspace. "As that is the case, I'd appreciate it if you could help me with this." 

Lyle stared at Brainy's back for a moment before stepping forward to stand beside him.

"Sure thing. Now let's see what you blew up this time..."

“Did you see what the city looked like today, Green-Legion?” Shikari said, looking down at him from where she has perched herself on the edge of the lab table despite being offered a perfectly serviceable chair.

“Yes, I saw Metropolis today, as I’ve done many times before.” They had been called out on a mission in the early morning hours and had spent almost an hour high above the city in the frigid darkness, waiting for what turned out to be a very short stand-off with a so-called ‘Jetpack Jacker’. Who had apparently convinced himself that the Science Police couldn’t track him if he tried to escape a crime scene via jetpack. The fool had been lucky that they showed up before his utterly rudimentary oxygen supply system sentenced him to a much worse fate than a stay in a science cell.

“But it was different today. It was so bright and shiny.” Querl glanced up at Shikari. She was smiling softly, eyes half-lidded and gaze fixed somewhere in the distance behind him. Between the suicidal criminal and the biting cold he hadn’t paid much attention to the scenery, but he had noticed the way Shikari seemed almost transfixed by it. Which made sense, she’d after all barely been with them for a year and had had very few opportunities to take in Metropolis electrified nightscape. It was gaudy and cluttered by billboards and light displays under normal circumstances, but during this time of year the number of colourful lights seemed to increase in direct relation to how the number of daylight hours decreased.

“Humans like to put up lights to compensate for a lack of daylight,” he offered, looking back down to the readings in front of him without really reading them. There was something very human about the entire display, something far removed from both the cold pragmatism of Colu and the nomadic way of the Kwai.

“Oh. I wish I had been able to see them up close.” However, the Kwai did navigate by the stars, so perhaps that could explain her particular fascination with the lights.

“I’m sure Kid Quantum would allow you to sign out for the afternoon to go view them if you asked,“ he said, motioning in the general direction of Jazmin’s quarters with one hand.

“I will zeezee her in a flash then. Will you come with me?” Shikari asked.

“Please stop talking to Wildfire. And no, I still have to analyse these samples for the team on Dryad, and…” The table shifted and Querl looked up to find Shikari leaning towards him, her golden eyes staring straight into his own and her face so close he could almost feel her breath against his cheek. She was still smiling shyly. His breath hitched in his throat.

“Please?” she said. It was not pleading, despite the soft expression. It was barely a question at all, her tone as matter of fact as if a denial had never been an option in the first place.

“I suppose I could set the samples to auto-analyse,” he said, his mouth dry. He swallowed, but it did little to alleviate the issue. The lights were of little interest to him, but the way Shikari looked at him, they way she had looked when they stalled above the city in the early morning, the idea of seeing that again seemed much more appealing. Her enthusiasm was bright in its own right, and sometimes he couldn't help but be drawn in by it.

“Great, I will inform Purple-Legion,” Shikari said, sliding off the table and landing on the floor as lithe as a cat. Querl nodded, his brain stalling for words for so long that he could only watch her retreating form leave the room.

#AHHHH!?!!?! #THIS IS AMAZING #this is so good i love their interaction sm #also your writing feels so aesthetiic in a way #IM IN LOVE WITH THIS #thank you so much #brainiac 5 #shikari #querl dox #querl x shikari

Dina, how do you feel about what's going on with the English dub for the TWEWY anime?

Ooops and also only just saw this. TBH I know they changed voice actors due to funi usually using in-house people but I haven't watched the dub. Maybe I will at some point...like when the dub is over? Then I can binge it in one go perhaps. But I'm not too fussed about it, like I already watched the anime with the japanese VAs so I don't think I'm missing out on too much rn.

#i prefer subs anyway for anime #i've watched very very few things dubbed #imo vid game voiceovers are better than anime voiceovers in general from what I see

[thestormfall]

ANYWAY.

I ammmm. I was once watching a new anime with my friend (Gatchaman Crowds) and someone screamed off screen and I said "OMG MAMORU MIYANO IS IN THIS" and my friend was like "that was a single scream??? Are you sure" me: check it. Google it now. Friend:...you were correct Me: dont ever doubt it.

But yes that's very very cool! Amazing that you managed to win that prize~

Dina... I may have heard wrong, but I think I heard the The Podcast Ends With You people ask Paul Castro Jr. a question from a "thestormfall". Was it you who asked it?:) If so, that's so totally awesome, and you must be so happy! I can't even imagine!=)

Yes it was, indeed! I was super super honoured that they asked my question...I indirectly talked to Rindo...yes that is how I’m taking it hahaha

#tbf he has quite an identifiable voice #so recognising his yells isnt that wild #he's got range for days

[thestormfall]

YO WHAT SHANNA. Okay I mean I was hyped and yes Paul Castro Jr is very cool but I'd trade 10 questions from him for one question from Mamoru Miyano. He's my fave VA ajdjfjf and saying 10 is underselling it by a lot 😂😂😂 how does it feel to be favoured by god 😂😂😂

#if mamoru miyano answered my question id simply cease to exist
