. . . but we already knew that, didn't we?

Otherwise known as after "Far From The Tree!"

***

angelpuppydanvers: So Mars was fun

angelpuppydanvers: You know, even with fighting off White Martians

angelpuppydanvers: Also, J'onn, your father is a really nice guy

angelpuppydanvers: Of course, once he knew it was actually you

smoakandmirrors: Um

fast&furious: Context, please?

fast&furious: For us humans who would have died in space?

spacepapabear: The reason M'gann called me to Mars was because they found my father

allfairplay: Good for you!

spacepapabear: Except when he saw me, he thought the White Martians were trying to break him further

allfairplay: Oh

allfairplay: Not so good

oliverking: I sense a but coming

angelpuppydanvers: You sense correctly

spacepapabear: I was able to prove to my father that I was, in fact, his son

angelpuppydanvers: And then we saved the planet!

barkandbite: So Team Supergirl wins again?

alwaysawinner: Is that surprise I sense from you, Rene?

barkandbite: Absolutely not

barkandbite: It's just that Kara has now saved two different planets now

merlynthemagician: I value my ability to breathe, thank you very much

queenoftheboard: I'm starting to wonder if Merlyns have an off button for savagery

fast&furious: I haven't found mine

smoakandmirrors: It wouldn't surprise me if they don't have one

secondisthebest: It wouldn't surprise me, either

secondisthebest: And I live with one of them, for God's sake

barkandbite: How's that working out, by the way?

secondisthebest: Quiet, actually, believe it or not

moralcompass: And how much quietness is because he's moping because Slade's gone?

secondisthebest: Accurate

merlynthemagician: I'm right here

secondisthebest: You still miss Slade

secondisthebest: It's weird being around and not hearing the constant wizard/magician bickering going back and forth

merlynthemagician: I hate you

secondisthebest: No, you don't

oliverking: It's weird watching the two of you converse without Slade

supersfriend: How's he doing, by the way?

oliverking: No idea, actually

oliverking: Once he goes off the grid, he goes completely off the grid

oliverking: So when he comes back on, I probably won't even know until he does

angelpuppydanvers: I'll punch him in the face if he pulls a stunt like that

oliverking: I love you so much, have I told you that recently?

angelpuppydanvers: Naw <3

barkandbite: Whipped

oliverking: Do you have any idea how quickly I can fire you, Rene?

barkandbite: I didn't say anything

thirdtimesthecharm: #thinkbeforeyoutype

queenoftheboard: Truer words have never been spoken

alwaysawinner: *typed

queenoftheboard: Whatever

moralcompass: Speaking of missing people

moralcompass: Are Alex and Maggie all right?

alwaysawinner: They're, ah . . .

supersfriend: It's probably not a good idea to bug them to come on

thirdtimesthecharm: Nah

smoakandmirrors: I'm not that suicidal

fast&furious: All in favor of tracking down Maggie's father and butchering him?

oliverking: Thea

fast&furious: What?

fast&furious: I can't be the only one thinking about it

secondisthebest: Nope

thirdtimesthecharm: I'd help

oliverking: William would probably want to be involved somehow

oliverking: And that's saying something

merlynthemagician: Good for him

oliverking: No, you are not training him to somehow hurt Maggie's father

merlynthemagician: You're no fun

oliverking: He may agree to cause a distraction, though

oliverking: And then you could do the hurting

merlynthemagician: Suddenly you became much more fun

oliverking: . . . thanks?

oliverking: I think?

angelpuppydanvers: So it was really that bad?

allfairplay: It was very bad

queenoftheboard: It really was

barkandbite: Preach

queenoftheboard: That's not something I really want to preach, Rene

smoakandmirrors: We have no love for Maggie's padre

smoakandmirrors: Let's just leave it at that

spartacus: And let the Merlyns decide on a plan to hurt him

spacepapabear: Should I be concerned about this?

moralcompass: Well, Thea's my assistant

moralcompass: And she's in a private conversation with her father right now

supersfriend: So we should be expecting the Merlyns to arrive and find Maggie's father

alwaysawinner: I don't know whether I should be cheering them on or being scared to death of them

smoakandmirrors: Knowing Merlyn

smoakandmirrors: All of the above

spacepapabear: So be concerned

oliverking: Definitely

angelpuppydanvers: Oh, Rao

alwaysawinner: I'll go prepare for the Merlyn apocalypse

supersfriend: *Merlyn savage apocalypse

alwaysawinner: That's even more terrifying

queenoftheboard: I'll help with the cleanup

spacepapabear: And I'll inform my father the Merlyns are not typical humans

spartacus: Merlyns are anything but typical

oliverking: Ain't that the truth

Huh . . . so this is what happens when I'm exhausted. Good to know.

Also, special announcement, guys - I'm going back to The Unmatched Records! :D Supergirl is in far enough that I feel confident going back to writing To Life Being Full again. So . . . keep an eye out for "Legion of Super-Heroes!"
