In Neverland with Spider-man...

What do you think of when you hear the name "Spider-Man"? 

 Personally, I think of spiders and men, two things I'm not fond of...

(P.S NEVER been fond of spiders, but the men thing is a bitterness phase that comes and goes with being single about midway to your 30's.)

Anyway, I finally braved my fear of both and met this Spider-Man I've heard so much about.........

.............What can I say? He's adorable! He's a blooming 15 year old which, you know, I did not expect-- I was ten years old when he was born! But I love him. He's so stinking adorable and fun in every sense of the word. Meeting him made me feel very, VERY old because it reminded me about all the up-and-coming super heroes and villains popping out of the wood work; all of which are younger than the contents of my pantry. 

I think I need to go shopping...

Can You Believe Some Alternate Dimensions?

This is my dimension, right? The one I originally came from?
I think it is, but I've been jumping around alternate dimensions for so long, I can't honestly tell anymore. I've got a super weird friends now, not just Robyn. I'm planning on making a series of posts to introduce them all to you-- Assuming I don't get swept back into another alternate dimension.

Some of those things are just plain sorry, you know? Like, really really really really REALLY--

And there's so many versions of how sorry, borderline crazy-sorry, they can be. Like the ones where you meet your exact-opposite self who is you, but a mass-murdering villain kind of you rather than a life-saving hero kind of you.

Yeah, that's the look you give them..

But then you jump back into the portal and you find the dimension where you died, and all the repercussions that come with that; like where your friends ended up, what never happened because you weren't there-- It's A Wonderful Life kind of stuff. Even those carefully advised individuals who were never given that careful advice to correct their lives and now they live in jail and its YOUR fault for being dead. 

I know. The guilt is killing me.

Or those dimensions like the one I just visited where everyone gets dead. Yeah. The Avengers, Geeks of the Galaxy, Doctor Who-Was-He-Again, Nick Furry-- All of them. Everyone gets dead. Killed by some purple faced alien guy with a bulky jaw who just wanted to, I dunno, kill everybody I guess-- Because that's what he did. Everyone was dead.. He killed them with his Magic Glove Of Shiny Death! It wasn't even fair! I've never fully understood the word "Power-playing" until I met that guy. He was like the BIGGERST power-player in the world. 

And he wasn't even nice about it, he was a jerk!

The dude even had The Hulk shivering, THE HULK!!! Who does that? He defeated the undefeatable, killed the unkillable, and nobody could do anything about it-- Because when they did, he just undid it with his stupid glove! That stupid two-eye'd-brain-dead-flying-purple-people-eater! I'm sure he had his reasons, but I don't even care what they were. I'm all like:

So yeah, everyone in that dimension is dead. You know, when I say "everyone" I don't mean EVERYONE. Of course not! I bet you knew I was exaggerating when I said it. So, not everyone.. Just, you know, the most annoying Avengers and me.. Because it was disintegration that killed everyone, and since I heal instantly, that's like....

And that's the look I give the vast nothingness all around me.

...Because everyone else is dead.

I don't even know how that all ended. I jumped back in the portal and went home to my own dimension where nobody is dead, not even Phil Coulson because of some quote-unquote "Blue Healing Alien", or Nick Fury who is a big faker! So nobody is dead in my dimension.. But everybody, EVERYBODY, is dead in another alternate dimension. 

Alternate dimensions are weird.

I have a load to tell Batman about this little chip in my neck now, if I ever decide to get back to him on it. He contacted me while I was gone demanding I get back to him on it, and I'm just like "I have a life outside of my crossovers with you, you know." ... I'd never actually say that to him though because he's never been to the freaky dimension where I'm just a regular girl and he's a fictional character in a comic book... Oi! That was an interesting experience.

Super Weird Friends: Robin... Uhhh..

So, I was thinking about my last post. It was a tease. I bring up "super friends" like I'm going to say something important, then I don't say anything at all. I thought I should come back introduce you to at least one of those friends... Maybe more if I feel like it later.

Since I know there are a fair bit of unfriendly people who read my blog, I'm not going to introduce you to anyone from the future per say-- Because this world we live in is full of a bunch of super-powered idiots who will turn on each other in a heartbeat just because some weirdo professes to have a vision of the future in which one of those friends go bad DESPITE the fact that nothing of the sort has happened yet!

*grump grump*

ANYWAY! This kid is relatively safe I think because she comes from both the future AND an alternate dimension.. In fact, she's from the future of an alternate dimension. 8D

...Plus she's a foundling, so we don't know who her parents are. No danger there!

Anywhoo, Everyone meet Robin!

Cute, isn't she? 

She's got indecisive flare to be sure. 

She's called Robin because, you know, she's the current Robin of her world. What's her real name? I have no idea.. Neither does she. In fact, she changes her name everyday. In that way you could say "Robin" IS her real name, and everything else like "Naomi Gloom", "Rebecca Lyn", or "Sarah Glint" are aliases.

Unlike the previous *cough*or current*cough* Robins of our world, this Robin actually has a super power: Have you ever seen Monsters Inc? Robin is very much like Boo. Her laughter has a revitalizing effect on the energy crystals they use to power everything there. When the crystals run out of power, her laughter can bring that power back tenfold. Good for them... But while we were hanging out, I also discovered her laughter has the same effect of technology and stuff from my dimension. She can recharge batteries by chuckling!

Robin is a lot of fun to be around. Though she has a magic laugh, she likes making others laugh even more. She's perky, energetic, and I don't think I have ever seen her in a bad mood...

So how did I meet her?

The chip thingy with this friendly Hug-Me symbol on the back of my neck..

Turns out it's a dimension jumper... Or something. I don't know what it does exactly or how, or why, but I know it is solely responsible for my newfound ability to jump into different dimensions. It beeps insistently whenever I'm close to an invisible rift that will allow me to jump. Then, all I have to do, is---

---But I discovered that completely by accident.
The reason it was beeping when I was in bed that one time was because the invisible rifts do not stand still. They move, circulate, orbit, disappear, and change.. So, as you can imagine, finding the same door twice is highly unlikely. But the good news is that once I'm in a different dimension, the invisible rift that takes me back home stands perfectly still and is the only invisible rift there is. Also, once I go through a rift, it also stands still until I come back out of it again... Fun right?

I dunno who made this thing or how they lost it in a rich-and-fancy-high-tech-museum, but this little thing is what I have to thank for all the new adventures and friends. And no, Nick, YOU CAN NEVER HAVE IT BACK!!!!!!!

I like it! It's fun! I'm really getting the hang of it! 

IT MINE FOREVER!!!

...Perhaps I should divvy this post up and introduce Robin and our adventure in another post... Hmm, sounds good to me. Stay tuned!

~I Got Super Friends in Super Weird Places!~

I need to stop putting my holographic Blogger ball in places where I can't find it-- Especially considering I can only access this blog from it. It's got this really high-tech, in-depth cloaking, anti-hacking system thing that keeps mischievous people *coughvillians&nosyagencies-- ExtracoughNickFury--cough* out of my business... It's hard to explain.

Anyway, I've missed ya'll! I know it's been a while, so update on my life: I'm doing fine.
I'm currently just chilling at home in my pajamas, hugging my favorite rainbow teddy bear and watching TV.

Lavender has been straightening out her family life and hanging with Pegasus more now. It's fills me with so much happy to see how far the two of them have come; from bitter enemies to best friends. It's great!

Genovia is finally back from medical school as a full blown doctor! She's rooming with Fairy, who has her own apartment and a job as a fashion designer. Phoenix rooms with them too, but she works full time undercover, training kids with super powers. Griffin is in a new super team, and Dragon is still on her home planet living life--- She's been dating different guys, but last I heard, she met someone and they've been getting along really well, so there might be extraterrestrial wedding bells in the near future. =3

..No, I'm just kidding. More power to her.

You know, I should clarify that the Mythical Gang didn't abandon me as I made it appear in past posts. They've just gotten on with their lives, which apparently has taken a few of them in different directions. We still see each other from time to time, we hang out, and they're always on call when I need them... But, they've grown up.

It's kinda strange that my fellow superheroes have outgrown me. Not just the Mythical Gang and the MGAP kids *coughTeenagerscough*, but the X-Men, Justice League, and the Avengers too.

I used to hang out with them all the time and help them with their problems, but now I don't do it so much anymore--- This is not to say that I'm too consumed with my own problems, because I'm not-- And I don't mean I don't have any problems, because I do-- It's just that I'm not hanging with buddies like Batman and everybody as much as I used to. I honestly feel like I've just stopped growing up somehow.

...I'm hoping it's a state of mind and not my powers evolving to keep me this age forever.

So anyway, with my old friends and my older-than-me friends moving on, I've started making new friends with the younger generation. You know, the crazy kids who only just figured out they have powers and are making names for themselves by kicking badguys and talking too much? Yeah! I'm having a lot of fun with them. It reminds me of the good old days when I had the MGAP kids to look after, and the good older days when the Mythical Gang and I were constantly in the action, together side-by-side, doing awesome!

I've yet to join any actual group or make any bosom friends, but I'm still having fun with them-- And I'm expanding my pallet beyond the cosmos! See, I used to have a bunch of alien friends, now I'm making friends in different dimensions and even different times! Yeah, you read that right, I'm a time-traveler!

.... Okay, it was a once-in-a-lifetime accident, but I still have yet-to-be-born friends in the future and it's going to be awesome! But anywhoo, I have some new friends here in the present too and I like them! It's relatively easy to make friends with kids because they don't know I'm older than them, so I fit right in. I feel a little bit like an immortal elf, or actually like the real Peter Pan: I never grow up, so my friends are always technically younger than me, and it doesn't matter. 

I'm not going to list their names here just yet for plenty of good reasons: The biggest of which being I don't want Nick or other big names learning about them yet and ruining their childhoods forever as Nick and other big names are prone to doing. 

You know me, I always have a problem with someone. ;)

Reflecting On Lookee...

X's and O's.... To Loki!

Assuming X's are hugs and O's are kissed, then I might give him an X... Maybe.. But never an O.. NEVER an O!

"But Lloyd!" I hear you say, "You have healing kisses. What if he was dying?"

I don't trust that twerp to be 'dying', he's either dead or he's not! Granted, my kisses don't have to be on the lips in order to heal. I can kiss them on the cheek, nose, forehead, or even the hand and it'll work-- But that is not the point. It's the principle of the thing!

NO "O"s FOR LOKI!!!

A Villain, By Definition

So, I was mixing up a crockpot of stew today-- Carefully following the instructions my dad texted me over the phone, in hopes that my cooking-failure karma would be overpowered by his cooking-supremacy--- When suddenly my ex arch-nemesis and current arch-friendisis, Lavender, came skipping into the kitchen.

"Hey Lloyd, the government is releasing a documentary about what happens to incarcerated villains. They're calling it "Suicide Squad". Want to go see it?" She asked.

I smiled and politely answered; "No thanks."

"Why not?" Lavender asked.

"Because it features two things I'm not fond of: The government and villains. It also has a little Joker shaped cherry on top, which kicks my 'No' up to a 'Speck No'... Why? Is Jingles taking you to see it?"

(Oh, I forgot to mention that Lavender is still dating that Prankster fellow I mentioned earlier.)

Good natured Lavender only laughed at my comment and replied with a smile: "His name is not Jingles, and yes, he's actually very excited to see it.. ("Because it's his future" thought I.) He said he could get an extra ticket for you if you were interested."

"Tell Trick-Or-Treat thanks for thinking of me, but you two have fun. It's strange that he offered, he knows I don't like him."

"Maybe that's exactly why he offered. When you don't like somebody, you tend to make it fun for people to interact with you." Lavender laughed, seating herself on the counter top to watch me work.

"Do I really?"

"You did for me." She said casually.

"Well, I sort of liked you."

"You sort of like Trickster too." She returned.

"Like is too strong a word for the current situation. I pity the mislead waif." 
And he is, okay? By definition, a 'waif' is a homeless and helpless person, especially a neglected or abandoned child. I understand that Prankster is an orphan from Gotham City who escaped the children's home at a young age and has lived on the streets ever since. He got into the typical kind of trouble by robbing corner-stores in order to feed himself, but eventually got involved in gangs due to his unique gadgetry-creating talents and un-catch-ability. Then he hit the big-time by attracting the attention of super villains. His alias 'Prankster' comes from his idolizing The Joker.

Which brings us to today's topic: Our world today is very fond of villains-- They're so fond of villains that heroes are fighting each other just to get a little attention. This is a problem.

Villains are the embodiment of evil and darkness.
By definition, Villains are: a character whose evil actions or motives are important to the plot.

synonyms:

criminal, lawbreaker, offender, felon, convict, malefactor, wrongdoer;  gangster, gunman, thief, robber;  rogue, reprobate, ruffian, hoodlum;  miscreant, scoundrel;

Heroes are supposed to embody goodness and light.
By definition, Heroes are: a person, typically a man, who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.

synonyms:

brave person, brave man/woman, man/woman of courage, man/woman of the hour, lionheart, warrior, knight;  champion, victor, conqueror

Read those synonyms very carefully. A "Synonym" is a word or phrase that means exactly or nearly the same as another word or phrase in the same language.

So if our society has become so fond of villains, they are technically fond of criminals, lawbreakers, offenders, felons, convict, wrongdoers, gangsters, gunmen,robbers, and terrorists. If someone likes something, they delve into it, they obsess over it and absorb it until it is part of them. Bearing that in mind, is it any wonder we have so many terrorist attacks going on? And so many people getting shot in mass numbers? ... Not everyone watches a movie or reads a book just for fun. Some people, eventually, want things to be real. And if the bad guy is depicted as the coolest, the bad guy is what becomes real.

This problem is going to get worse if people don't start distinguishing the difference between a person who has a hard past, and a villain.

Sorry for the limited amount of funny in the post, the next one will be better.

Batman Did It?!

Batman, how could you?! 

No wonder it's taking you forever to figure out what this Hydra chip thing does- You're not really working on figuring it out at all. You're too busy drawing on poor Mommy mirrors.

 I bet you thought you got away with it too, didn't you? Well, you didn't! This little kid saw you. No, don't try to deny it. It's your word against his, and everybody knows a 2 year old never lies! Tsk. Tsk. Be ashamed of yourself, Bat-Buddy. Be ashamed...

Okay, I'll stop trolling now.
