@rocketrobie2 How bout that avatar? Maaaan I hate that dude and his dumb hair.... LOL


I was just watching Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives a moment ago while eating a late night dinner. Truthfully I can get why people wouldn't like him, but I've never had an issue with Guy. I've genuinely enjoyed recipes he's done in the past, and I did really enjoy the few places I've visited that he had on his show.

Really though, at the end of the day, I think I've just reached a time in my life where I'd rather put the effort into hating someone more if they're a genuinely clearly horrible person. Not someone who can just be kind of obnoxious sometimes.

EDIT: ...Okay fine I'll make light of this... HAPPY NOW?!

As Dai took a seat in the kitchen next to the breakfast counter. He looked over his mass bounty of cuisine for the afternoon. A collection of a roasted chicken, couple pieces of garlic bread, fried green beans, and a quite large glass of lemon lime soda. Some of which, like the chicken, were pre-cooked and waiting. The rest he made himself, a point of pride for Dai. After all, any Gluconian worth their grain of salt knows not only how to cook, but to make meals that can rival any planet’s professional chefs. Its why Glucona is considered the premiere planet in any solar system for gourmet cuisine.

As Dai dove into the meal, it didn’t take long for the fat, calories, and other assorted nutrients to take effect on his body. Like some kind of fat balloon Dai’s body seemingly expanded bigger and bigger. His stomach going from flat and toned but bloated further and further. Reaching a point it started to rest on his sitting legs, and eventually covering the legs from his own sight even when he stood up. Meanwhile the rest of his body grew with his girth, his arms and legs properly gaining mass until his legs looked more tree trunks than normal.

As he ate, Dai’s mind started to drift slightly, going back to the last week since Cosmic Boy visited him. It had been crazy, exciting, stressful, all seemingly at the same time. Having to give up on his hypersu career was difficult. Not just from having to say goodbye to what seemingly was the only thing he’ll ever be good at. His sponsors weren’t super happy to hear the news either, even with the reason being important. He had to work to get out of the contract but even still Dai still has to return to Glucona at least once a year for the next few years for commercials and such. Cosmic Boy though noted he knew what Dai was going through, when Cosmic Boy had to leave his Magnoball career his sponsors asked about the same thing of him. It didn’t last too long, and thankfully they didn’t ask a lot of him. Dai could only hope the same thing with his sponsors. Even though his planet’s people were all thrilled he was being brought into the returning Legion of Superheroes. It was a very big deal for one of their own to be recognized in such a manner.

After the meal, Dai stuffed the chicken's two drumsticks into his mouth and held them there, the both of them sticking weirdly out of his stretched out mouth. He was planning on returning to his room to take some time to finish setting up his room when he heard "Hey, big guy, come see me when you are done with what you are doing." Pausing awkwardly Dai glanced around before pointing to himself. Muffling out a “Mefh?” from his stuffed mouth. Only to pause, and with one hand quickly stuffed down both chicken drumsticks down his gullet, bones and everything. It was all a nice side effect of his ability to digest normally inedible stuff. His stomach giggled as after a moment it grew just ever so slightly bigger from the extra food. “Uh sure uh...” Dai let out a sudden belch which threw even him off. Quickly covering his mouth with a massive fist. His cheeks rapidly developing a deep pink hue. The last thing he wanted to do around his new teammates was give them the impression of the old stereotypes of Gluconians being pigs and impolite. “My apologies, uh sure I’m available.” Walking in, his massive girth making small shakes in the ground. “So what are we doing?”
@knighthawk I'm assuming the behemoth in question is Bulk Lad, if so give me a moment and I'll respond.
Imma try to get a quick post up for Momentum.


Get out. #Punpolice
- One week ago -


The roar Dai Suwind let out was only second to the powerful quake left as he grasped his opponent's trunks. Slamming the seemingly 900 pounder to the mat with his frame that was over double. Which he pressed all of onto his laid out opponent. Fattened feet left dangling in the air as Dai got a three count and won the match. The crowd roared as Dai quickly rose back to his feet. Grinning as he adjusted his severely tiny in comparison glasses with one hand while making a peace gesture with his other.

While the match, and the fury that came with it, were all a thrill to Dai. It was everything afterwards that was difficult. Sitting in the heavy duty chair that wasn't comfortable, numbing his massive butt. Seeing a sea of reporters ask question after question. Trying to answer them all in a way that would make everyone happy when such a thing was impossible. Dai finally let out a sigh when he left the press room. His 6'6 gigantic frame jiggling under the clothes he had on.

Preparing to head back to his hotel room for the night. The fans willing to stick around all surrounding the superstar. Wanting pictures, autographs, Dai normally would be thrilled to do it but tonight something in it just couldn't let him. Instead quietly but politely asking people to step aside. Suddenly though from in front of him, the crowd in a strange moment of even bigger awe, started to separate as someone approached him in a wheel chair. The haze of all the bright lights around him clouding who it was before Dai became frozen in stunned silence.

"You're pretty good kid, but I think you can do more with it. I played magnoball on Braal for six years before founding the Legion five years ago. I could use a guy with your talents..." Cosmic Boy said from his shining chair among the rest of the crowd gathered around the hypersu celebrity.

"I'm putting another team together, it's only a matter of time before Brainiac Five returns to this space sector..." Cosmic Boy continued pulling a ring from the compartment in his chair.

Dumbfounded Dai watched as Cosmic Boy, his idol, the man who's pain caused him to cry when he was little. Now standing in front of him, complimenting him on his hypersu skills! But then it was the ring, the unmistakable nth metal ring coming out of Cosmic Boy's wheel chair and with a casual flick, was tossed to Dai who caught it easily.

The crowd around the two were gasping in shock. But it was all nothing to what Dai was feeling, staring down at the ring in his massive hands. He could recall a time he would play when he was little, pretending he was in the Legion of Superheroes. It was his dream, and the closest he thought he'd ever get was imagining such a thing. This though, this was real, Cosmic Boy was right there. Finally Dai started to crack a smile, one which grew fast as Dai approached Cosmic Boy very quickly. "OHMYGODYESYESYESYESYESYES!" Dai proclaimed loudly and proudly, impressively albeit absent mindedly picking up Rokk wheelchair and all in a hug. Only to quickly realize what he was doing and put him back down. "Oh uh sorry! Got a bit carried away there..."

- One week later -


Dai Suwind was still not sure if he was living in some kind of dream. Sure, he had absolutely crushed the bed in his living quarters on the day he got there. Sure, he ate everything in the kitchen which led to said bed destruction. He had sworn to himself as he was traveling to Earth to be on his best behavior. But Dai was nervous as all can be. He was in the Legion of Superheroes!

Still Rokk clearly understood Dai meant well, he made sure the kitchen was restocked by day’s end. Plus Rokk had a new Gluconian bed brought in the next day. It was awesome and instantly made Dai feel a bit more comfortable in the role. Speaking of comfortable, Dai was in his quarters, checking himself out in the neat red suit Rokk outfitted him with. It was made out of the same material most Gluconian clothes were made out of. Meaning it would stretch comfortably and breathe nicely.

Dai was at his normal small frame at the moment, he hadn’t eaten at all that day as he had been too busy exploring his new home. Meeting teammates, geeking out with Momentum on being on the team, as well as Momentum’s awesome action figures and memorabilia. When Rokk came over the intercoms with the call Dai had to stop himself from immediately responding and getting in on the action. After all, he realized looking down at himself. If he went into battle as is he’d be dead meat. Mmm, meat, Dai needed to go eat something. Sure it doesn’t take long for a Gluconian to gain more than enough weight to put up a fight. But by the sound of things Dai didn’t even have that much time. He sighed wistful, “You guys go ahead, I need to get in shape first.” He responded over the comms. rubbing his tiny stomach as he made his way to the kitchen.
So I guess the question that should be asked is who wants to be in the four that goes out. Bulk Lad could certainly go for the power unless others do more.
@DrewVonAwesome Lyle Norg probably won't be around since Cosmic Boy had to take the rings to a repair shop rather than one of his old friends. In the original continuity Invisible Kid was one of the first to die and was replaced with the more French Invisible Kid II, Jacques.


Wait a second...

*Reads how Lyle couldn't be in this since he died.*

*Looks at how Ferro Lad is in RP.*

...
In.

LET ME DREAM DAMMIT!
@rocketrobie2 Something I was wanting to say last night but I liked Momentum, I think considering both of there profiles they're going to be totally nerdy fan dorks for being in the Legion. I do want to have Bulk Lad have a nerdgasm over being invited in by Cosmic Boy.

But going back to maybe a reason why another idea I was going on, and can still be possibly used by someone looking at this but undecided. I was thinking Lyle Norg aka Invisible Kid would have a serious investment in this story. As he would naturally have worked a ton with Brainiac 5 being a fellow super genius but in a much more creative and not calculating sense.

But essentially for Lyle seeing everything happen to Brainiac 5 is a sort of feeling of helplessly watching your friend betray everyone. I was picturing him just making a decent life for himself after everything but it's clearly still eating at him. So with Cosmic Boy coming back and bringing the team back together. Lyle joins because he feels like he has to be the one to 'put Brainiac 5 out of his misery' so to speak.
