Also known as after "Doppelgänger" and what this poor music major has had time to write these last few weeks!

***

smoakandmirrors: I feel obliged to inform everyone Thea will most likely not be on the chat tonight

frostbite: OK

lancelot: Why

gumballintherain: She's allowed to do that

timedetectivepretty: So no second Merlyn being savage?

angelpuppydanvers: And I'm sitting over here laughing at everyone's priorities

merlynthemagician: My daughter's happiness is mine thank you very much

goodvibes: Did Malcolm just have feelings

backinaflash: I think he's sick

youreawizardharry: He's a dad he's allowed to have feelings about his children

merlynthemagician: He can also see all of your messages

merlynthemagician: He would also like to inform you his sword is right next to him

promiseskept: He also killed several thugs for taking Laurel

promiseskept: So he's most likely in a mood

merlynthemagician: Excuse you he took a teammate

merlynthemagician: How could I not be upset by that

promiseskept: A teammate

promiseskept: Sure

secondisthebest: You're the worst Slade

promiseskept: Is that any way to speak to someone who rescued you

secondisthebest: Kara rescued me thank you very much

angelpuppydanvers: *angel emoji*

merlynthemagician: Damnit almas I can't argue when you do that

angelpuppydanvers: That's exactly what I do that

merlynthemagician: Great I'm outnumbered

merlynthemagician: Someone help

aresthegodofwar: Why did Laurel need rescuing

secondisthebest: Diaz likes making Oliver's life miserable

oliverking: If this year had a book title that would absolutely be it

penn&telle: "Making Oliver Queen's Life Miserable" – a memoir by Ricardo Diaz

supersfriend: Read by supervillains everywhere

merlynthemagician: We get a little bit of credit for this right?

promiseskept: Does it count if we're no longer villains?

timetravelsabitch: Says the two members of the redeemed villains club

merlynthemagician: Exactly

merlynthemagician: Redeemed

merlynthemagician: We were still villains

bigbadwolf: I never knew someone could sound so smug over a group message

bigbadwolf: Congratulations Malcolm

merlynthemagician: I do my humble best

promiseskept: Humble

merlynthemagician: I will stab you

promiseskept: No you won't

smoakandmirrors: I still say just Ricardo Diaz wrote the book

smoakandmirrors: He isn't going for the "I want to kill you Oliver Queen" route

smoakandmirrors: He's going the "I'm going to take your entire city away from you" route

smoakandmirrors: It's failing miserably

smoakandmirrors: But that's where he's going

moralcompass: Ruvé Darhk tried to become the mayor though

smoakandmirrors: Hm

mammamia: Hey wanna bet Damien Darhk has that book

dreadpiratejiwe: Zari

mammamia: They started it!

lancelot: No

lancelot: He'd write his own memoir

lancelot: "Making The Legends' Lives Miserable" – a memoir by Damien Darhk

lightemup: Co-authored by little Darhk

lifeinthefastlane: Little Darhk

lightemup: Shut up

timedetectivepretty: And Kuasa

athenathegoddessofwisdom: And Gorilla Grodd

aresthegodofwar: Don't forget the time demon

athenathegoddessofwisdom: Ah yes the one behind all this trouble to begin with

athenathegoddessofwisdom: Must never forget him

lancelot: The Firestorm bond at its finest ladies and gentlemen

aresthegodofwar: Nah

athenathegoddessofwisdom: We're just sitting right next to each other

aresthegodofwar: [image attached]

athenathegoddessofwisdom: Easy to coordinate that way

lancelot: "Making The Legends' Lives Miserable" – a memoir by too many anachronisms to name

timedetectivepretty: And Beebo

gumballintherain: Seriously

aresthegodofwar: Beebo was an anachronism

lifeinthefastlane: Who's Beebo

spartacus: Don't get them started

goodvibes: Apparently all the supervillains are teaming up to write a series

secondisthebest: "Making Superhero Lives Miserable" – a series by supervillains everywhere

merlynthemagician: This is why she's my favorite Lance

lancelot: Go to hell Merlyn

merlynthemagician: Does Purgatory count

goodvibes: "Making Barry Allen's Life Miserable" – a memoir by Clifford DeVoe

backinaflash: You know

backinaflash: It really wouldn't surprise me if DeVoe was actually writing a book about that

frostbite: Does he have a doctorate?

easteriris: Could he get a doctorate in making my husband's life miserable?

youreawizardharry: Doubtful

easteriris: Oh good

youreawizard: At least not on this Earth

easteriris: What

backinaflash: Oh joy

thecollector: There's an Earth for that?

youreawizardharry: There's an Earth for everything

penn&telle: I understood that reference

youreawizardharry: Congratulations Schott you get an imaginary cookie

penn&telle: Better than no cookie at all

smoakandmirrors: This is the positivity the rest of you should have

bigbadwolf: Sorry, my unrelenting seriousness is one of my best qualities

spacepapabear: Alex

bigbadwolf: J'onn

angelpuppydanvers: Oliver

oliverking: Angel

youreawizardharry: Frosty

frostbite: Harry

lightemup: Pretty

timedetectivepretty: Mick

aresthegodofwar: Sister

athenathegoddessofwisdom: Brother

promiseskept: Wizard

merlynthemagician: Magician

lancelot: And without fail Merlyn ruins everything

merlynthemagician: Go to hell Lance

lancelot: Pretty sure that's where I ended up when we met Beebo the God of War

lifeinthefastlane: The what

mammamia: And we're back to that blue bastard

dreadpiratejiwe: It was funnier when there was eggnog

lifeinthefastlane: That makes so much sense now

lifeinthefastlane: With alcohol?

secondisthebest: You bet

lifeinthefastlane: Much more sense now

gumballintherain: We were not drunk

lightemup: Eh

gumballintherain: OK Mick may have been drunk

lightemup: Eh

gumballintherain: . . .

gumballintherain: Mick was definitely drunk

lightemup: There you go Pretty

lifeinthefastlane: I have so many questions for the Legends

lancelot: And I so want to meet you

supersfriend: Oh God

penn&telle: Oh man

spacepapabear: That would be

angelpuppydanvers: Please no

bigbadwolf: I object to this

spacepapabear: Interesting

matilda: I'm confused?

timetravelsabitch: Same

bigbadwolf: I move for Sara Lance to not meet Lucy Lane

angelpuppydanvers: I second this motion!

lifeinthefastlane: ???

lifeinthefastlane: Betrayal???

bigbadwolf: More like keeping National City intact

penn&telle: More like the planet

supersfriend: More like the universe

angelpuppydanvers: How about the multiverse

lifeinthefastlane: I am not that bad!

bigbadwolf: Fair

lifeinthefastlane: Thank you

angelpuppydanvers: Sara is

lancelot: Excuse you

oliverking: Eh

backinaflash: I've met Lucy

backinaflash: That would definitely be something

merlynthemagician: You know what

merlynthemagician: I'd want to see how bad they could get

lancelot: I can't believe I'm saying this

lancelot: Thank you for your support Merlyn

promiseskept: What the hell

promiseskept: I like chaos

spartacus: That explains so much

lancleot: Did I just get support from both of them

angelpuppydanvers: I will find the two of you and pout

merlynthemagician: You know what

merlynthemagician: I'm more scared of that than Sara

lancelot: The super puppy is scary?

merlynthemagician: The Kryptonian I saw break every bone in Chase's body is scary

promiseskept: ^^^

lancelot: . . .

lancelot: Fine

lancelot: Lucy we'll cause chaos another time

lifeinthefastlane: Noted

backinaflash: Kara can you let me know when that is

angelpuppydanvers: Sure

angelpuppydanvers: Why

backinaflash: Just to know when we should prepare for the apocalypse

lancelot: And I thought you loved me Barry

backinaflash: You're amazing Sara

backinaflash: But I don't want to die because you meet Lucy Lane

backinaflash: Please don't kill me now

lancelot: Barry is my new favorite team leader

angelpuppydanvers: I will pout at you too

backinaflash: I didn't tell her to do that!

oliverking: At this rate I'll be the only team leader left standing

promiseskept: And you just got yourself killed kid

goodvibes: RIP Oliver Queen

goodvibes: Please pay your respects

matilda: Why am I still in this

timetravelsabitch: Because we both get more amusement from this when we watch and don't comment

matilda: True

moralcompass: Welcome to my life

***

For real, these "Crisis on Infinite Earths" trailers, though . . . I was so happy with seeing the "Black Widow" trailer this morning, and then I saw there was a new Crisis one.

For the record, none of you are allowed in my bunker during this crossover because I predict you will want to stay there and then you will all murder me no doubt for whatever angsty feels I write in the future.
