Welcome
It all started when a crystal dropped into existence, punched a hole in time and space and landed into the lap of one the most insane men to ever walk the Earth.
At first, the clown didn't know what he had been gifted with, stuck in his cell in Arkham, staring at the reddish purple crystal laying innocently on the dirty stone floor.
And then the voices started, telling him of another universe, talking of power and chaos beyond what he could have ever dreamed.

It was true- Sora was young. Under his influence, she could end up being quite a sour kitty after all. But he wasn’t sure she needed to be- he liked her the way she was at that moment, playful and unlike him in every way. He didn’t want to mold her, as he might a student. Let her be a cat. Maybe he was thinking of her too much as his own daughter. Soranik was not someone he wanted ending up like him, either. While he wanted to guide her a be a part of her life, he did not want to change who she was. He was proud of the defiant, proud korugaran she had become.
And he hadn’t hand any part in it, really.
Sinestro ate quietly and thought about the things she had said. He supposed, of the two evils, being in love with someone was a bit worse than considering everyone around you family. They were probably close, but he still couldn’t see that being a good thing. Either way, really. Love was nothing but trouble in general. If Arin had ever been in the battlefield, as a warrior, he probably would have been looking to protect her all the time. She had meant so much to him. In the end, she had been on the battlefield, and he hadn’t been able to protect her.
But love hadn’t been a distraction for him. It had simply informed him of its own weakness and gave him good reason to shove it from his life. Would it have been different if she had been his sister? Or someone he thought of as a sister?
Loving a partner. Loving a family. In the end, if love was in the picture, it was going to end poorly.
“Well, if it helps you control your emotions, I suppose it can’t all be bad. I still don’t see it as the best idea out there, but it’s not the worst you could do.” He imagined there were worse things out there then being close to your friends, though for the life of him he couldn’t think of anything.
Maybe in time things would come to mind.
"What about your daily life? Are you one of those who believes in having a secret identity? Going to school? Living as a normal student or... something?" He didn't really know how humans spent their normal non-hero hours.

Young superheros were not as bad as some might think, they had stopped her father. The Titan closed her eyes briefly as she remembered that time. But it was gone now and her indigo eyes returned to the food as she delicately took another mouthful. The food was also better than what Raven usually had. When travelling in search for Titans it left little time for cooking and the teenager generally had to resort to take-aways.
Again, Raven paused in her eating to stroke Sora again, the Titan was attached to the bundle of fur. Tickiling the kitten under the stomach, Raven noticed the calming effect that playing with the kitten had. Although it was rather impolite to play with a kitten when eating diner. So Raven turned back to eating. "I don't suppose you have any recipies that are quick and cheap?" [/b] Raven asked. The Titan herself didn't get to do much cooking but certainly wanted to improve if she did manage to find the Titans. Helping them was something that Raven found pleasant. It was a way to try and escape from her heritage, to try and be like them. “Well, if it helps you control your emotions, I suppose it can’t all be bad. I still don’t see it as the best idea out there, but it’s not the worst you could do.” Controlling her emotions were important, although Raven often wished that she didn't have to. It was hard, knowing and feeling what everyone else felt but being forbidden to feel yourself. But as well as wanting to feel emotion, Raven wanted to remain apart from her emotions. If she felt she became vulnerable to manipulation from her demonic family and thus a danger to the world. That was something to avoid. "I've never had a real family. The emotional security is what helps, I believe."[/b] Raven said, briefly explaining why it helped keep her emotions in check. "What about your daily life? Are you one of those who believes in having a secret identity? Going to school? Living as a normal student or... something?" Raven put down her fork after taking another bite from the food. "I try to live a normal life, or tried. Currently I'm directing more of my attention to finding the Titans. But I was enrolled at a school as Rachel Roth. I didn't get to complete it. My brothers tried to kill me with a demon and the school didn't fare too well."[/b] Raven spoke about her brothers sending in a demon to kill her with no emotion, as if it happened often. "I would like to be able to be in school, to lead a normal life. But that isn't that easy. What about you? How do you lead life when you are not a Green Lantern? It can't be too easy when on an alien planet."[/b] Raven asked, taking another bite from the food. There was a lot that she didn't know about Sinestro and the teenager was curious, although she would not press her point if Sinestro did not want to speak about it. Still, Raven was trying to be open. [/blockquote][/div] [/style]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,426,true] | [atrb=background,http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x126/Gotta_love_gits/Sinestro/random%20images/greenmiddle.png] She mentioned her life and he nodded. It wasn’t like he wasn’t used to sob stories- he’d had more than his fair share of hardship growing up. Still, she seemed to have particularly strange memories. Her life was something of a mash up of weird and terrible, that was for sure.
Sinestro looked thoughtful for a moment. “I don’t,” he replied after a moment, “I don’t really live life as anything other than a Green Lantern. Being a Lantern has been a part of my life for a very long time, and after a certain point, I no longer thought I needed to have a life separate from it. There was… nothing left.” He shrugged his shoulders. For him, work was more important than relaxing or keeping himself happy. As long as he was doing something for the good of the universe, that was fulfilling enough. Why did he need to have a personal life, with friends and people he loved? Last time he had allowed for that, he had been left with nothing but pain and a daughter who wanted to murder him.
Not exactly points in the favor of two lives.
“Still, I suppose it works for me because I do not need things like time off or entertainment- I am fine to keep working and doing what I need to do. There is nothing else that makes me content, anyway.” He smiled faintly, wondering if it made him sound like a bit boring. Not that it mattered- he hardly cared what someone else thought of him. If he took time to worry about things like that, he never would have made half the choices he had in his life. Whether that was a good thing or not, though, he was starting to wonder about. Oh well. There was nothing he could really say about it to a young girl who hadn’t had half the life experiences he had.
“For you, though, I think it might be good to give school another chance. Young ones like you have a tendency to struggle when you bury yourselves in work- you’re not prepared for it. Having time for fun and whatever else you kids do isn’t a bad idea.” He couldn’t sound completely convincing as he said it, but the thought was there. In reality, he did think it was better for kids to have their lives separate from their powers. If he had it his way, kids wouldn’t be running around trying to be heroes at all. They needed to be young and have their time to grow up. Forcing them to grow up too fast, well, it seemed to be the best way to create villains.
And the world didn’t need any more of them.
“Maybe you’re right,” he said after a moment, “if I did want to live a little more comfortably, I guess it would be difficult on this planet. I don’t know what humans do to entertain themselves. I barely remember what Korugarans do for fun, if I’m completely honest.” He couldn’t remember the last time he had done something just because he had some free time and wanted to chill.

She wondered whether he had ever had any moments in his life when his job put everyone else into danger. “I don’t,” Raven looked up at him curiously and waited for the alien to finish talking. “I don’t really live life as anything other than a Green Lantern. Being a Lantern has been a part of my life for a very long time, and after a certain point, I no longer thought I needed to have a life separate from it. There was… nothing left.”
The teenager looked at her plate thoughtfully as she took in his words. "There is always something. It just isn't easy to know it. I used to be unaware that I could lead a normal life but I have found it and have tried." [/b] After all, Raven had been raised with no emotions; no one had been allowed to feel for her, to care for her. The only emotion that she had been allowed was a hatred for her father. When she came to earth to protect it, she had found a range of emotions, various climates that could surround her. She had been given the opportunity to get an education, to live like every other human. “Still, I suppose it works for me because I do not need things like time off or entertainment- I am fine to keep working and doing what I need to do. There is nothing else that makes me content, anyway.” Raven thought about that as she took another bite of the meal and then started to stroke the kitten again. "Was there once other things that made you content?"[/b] Raven wondered if there had been things and whether Sinestro had grown out of them. Or whether he simply didn't try them again as he decided he preferred work. “For you, though, I think it might be good to give school another chance. Young ones like you have a tendency to struggle when you bury yourselves in work- you’re not prepared for it. Having time for fun and whatever else you kids do isn’t a bad idea.” School had never seemed to work for Raven, she just attracted the wrong sort of attention. But the teenager wanted to go, to lead a normal life. "When things calm down I will try going back to school. I do enjoy education."[/b] Just as long as the students weren't getting possessed or demons were tearing down the school trying to kill her. “Maybe you’re right, if I did want to live a little more comfortably, I guess it would be difficult on this planet. I don’t know what humans do to entertain themselves. I barely remember what Korugarans do for fun, if I’m completely honest.” Raven frowned as she tried to think about what humans did for fun. It was really a large topic. "I believe that a lot of people watch movies, or play games. Ping Pong is one of the games that some of the Titans liked to play; I think some also enjoyed video games. I like reading books, personally."[/b] Raven asked. She doubted that her recreational activities were some of the normal human ones. Visiting museums and libraries were rarely on a teenagers list of fun recreational things to do, for Raven it was at the top. [/blockquote][/div] [/style]
