 "...What is all this?" she asked. She knew the last one wasn't Hermes's helmet- he never left Mount Olympus without it and none of them here could catch him. |

 "That belongs to a friend of mine. A speedster, named Jay Garrick, who called himself the Flash....the first one. All of this are mementos from my old team." |

"...What happened to all of them? Were they killed in battle like your friend in London?" asked Diana, though with the look on her face, that question was born more out of sympathy than anything. |

"...no...besides my husband..." she gritted at the memory, trying not to cripple from the sorrow of it. "We....protected the world in secret until the government caught wind of our...'extra-curricular activities'. They wanted us to work for them...they wanted us to unmask. But we refused to play ball, so they came at us hard. They came at us, one by one, uncovered our identities, and arrested us for 'vigilantism'." |

Convo clause, and I've done a lot of skipping!"...I suppose that they have their reasons, though," she said, frowning, "If...if those are the laws of the land...how can we be expected to uphold them if we ourselves do not follow them? ...Even if I doubt that there would be any way they could hold or discipline us..."

"Yeah...." she grimly said, still thinking about Jack. Speaking of which, "I'm gonna set his staff here, if that's okay with you, Pat." |

"Yeah, that's fine. I wasn't bluffin Barbara, if you want to go for drinks that's fine by me...if not, I hate to say it, but I'll need to get going. Nebraska isn't just around the corner." As much as he wanted to help, he had his son and new wife and daughter to think about, he couldn't run off after a murderer.

Diana shook her head. "It seems that this is something personal that would best be left to you. I have no business involving myself in it...though I do wish you comfort and joy in these times," she said, trying to smile for them. |

Pat, always the gentleman, gave a slight bow to Diana. "It was an honor to meet you, your highness."

Guess it's up to me to answer...Diana smiled back to him. "Nice to meet you as well. And you, Shiera." |
