OH MY FUCKING GOD M'GANN. IT HAPPENED. MY PRECIOUS BB REALIZED THE LINE SHE'S JUST CROSSED. OH PERFECTION. AND THAT LOOK CONNER GIVES HER - WHEN L'GANN AND GAR ARE TOTALLY OBLIVIOUS TO WHAT'S REALLY HAPPENING BUT CONNER - HE KNOWS.
Okay confession time: I may have read this BEFORE I even watched the episode, so I had an inkling of what was going to happen, but nothing could have prepared me for how it ACTUALLY occurred. The look on her face was one of someone whose spirit had just been broken; she realized that she had gone too far. She had essentially "raped" (and not really, but you get what I mean) someone who she had thought was a traitor, and prior to that moment, he had done everything possible to paint himself as one in her eyes per his plan with Nightwing, Wally and Artemis. She invaded his mind, the mind that belonged to someone who she used to call comrade, roommate, friend; she did that, and found out that not only was her "sister" and friend Artemis actually alive, but that Kaldur wasn't actually a traitor. Then she realized that BECAUSE she didn't care and had no problem with doing something like that, that THAT was why Superboy broke up with her; because she had no compunction over doing something that heinous. And she UNDERSTOOD why he left. After Artemis left, M'Gann was too afraid to even do something as simple to her as breathing by going through the locked door, and it's because she was afraid that she'd lose control and do something that terrible all over again.
Gods, do I want fanfic now where she and Superboy talk about the mission and what happened to her and everything.
no subject
