There's really only one person here who will think this one's funny, but what's an LJ for if you can't have incomprehensible silliness?

Anyway, I was wanting a copy of ACTION COMICS #591, because it's got the Legion of Super-Heroes in it, so I looked it up on MileHigh, and then I got a look at the cover.

Anybody else looking at that picture would, I'm sure, be focusing on the Superboy/Superman punchup. Me? I'm down there on the left going "Brainiac 5 is hugging Sun Boy!!"

(Non-Legion fans: Brainy is the Legion's emotionally distant genius. Sun Boy is the Legion's cheerful slut. So: lots of gaping at this image. Also giggling.)

I'm just trying to envision this. Was it: "Brainy, I'm frightened by this sudden and inexplicable violence! Hold me!" Or: "My understanding of reality is unraveling! I must embrace Sun Boy and take comfort in his solidity!" Or maybe: "No, Sun Boy, you mustn't try to stop them! >choke< I couldn't bear to lose you too!" "Oh, Brainy, I never knew you cared..."

(Okay, yeah, it's time to lay off the bad romance novels.)

And what happened after the fight was over? Did Brainy carry Sun Boy back to his laboratory, where they made tender love in amongst the forcefield generators and sentient computers? Or did Sun Boy scandalize Smallville by tearing off Brainy's eggplant jumpsuit right there in the street? I want to know these things, dammit!

Of course, you could write it and make it work. Please?

Because yum, pretty.... :D

It would be awfully pretty, wouldn't it? And I have action figure props...

*considers* I seem to vaguely recall having an idea about Dirk trying to seduce Brainy as a challenge, although I think my imagination failed before I produced a reason why Brainy would say yes...

Intellectual curiousity? ;)

[greenygal.livejournal.com]

*starts to laugh* It would never do for him not to know everything, after all--although Dirk might live to regret that particular line of thought, as Brainy no doubt researches...exhaustively. ;)

(Also, Brainy's line about how he should never listen to Dirk outside a lab means that I cannot get it out of my head that that's where it happens...)

lmao

the images!!!

writing that fic would definitely be somethign you should do...ponders offering you a copy of the actual comic to sway you...hmmms

[greenygal.livejournal.com]

Ooh, bribes! ;-> Nah, somehow I doubt that anything that's actually in the comic would be nearly as interesting as my fevered imaginings...

*sporfle*

I have... very few words.

Excellent. It's my goal to reduce as many people as possible to a nonverbal state, unless of course they're writing fic.

Best life purpose ever. You're my new hero.
