Lyle’s got a question for Querl.

( Lyle was on the prowl, running down his elusive prey. …Well, not really. 99.97% of the time during daylight hours, Brainiac 5 could be found in his lab, so there was no need to search for him. )

Twenty random facts about Querl Dox. For added fun, try to see how many Lyle/Brainy stories (both mine and not) I reference.
Notes: Written for quirky_circe's DC Random Facts Fest.

( Science was the be-all and end-all of his existence. )

Lyle’s got a present for Brainy. It isn’t for a winter holiday, however.

( While Querl had never known that Gim Allon was Jewish, he had also never received a present from Lyle Norg in person. )

Brainy decides it’s high time he passed on his genetic genius. He probably should have talked to Lyle about it first, and he definitely shouldn’t have mixed up the Petri dishes.

( “You knocked me up, you sprocking bastard!” )

Some things Brainy can use a computer to figure out. Lyle isn’t one of those things.

( Brainy’s eyes narrowed at the blinking box on his computer screen that displayed the sum of his calculations. “This makes no logical sense,” he muttered. )

Brainy kissed Lyle. And that means more than anyone besides Lyle thinks it does.

( Coluans had very particular customs regarding kissing, or, in fact, physical contact of any kind. )

Minor Tenchi Muyo crossover. Brainy gets ambushed by proper Coluan courtship procedure.

( “It’s a cabbit, from the planet Jurai,” Lyle responded promptly. )

Lyle likes being invisible. But he never has been to Brainy.

( He’s never fit in, not ever. Too smart, too outgoing, too weird, too free with his feelings and emotions…too much of a rebel. )

Post Legion Lost. Perhaps Jazmin can convince Brainy to forgo his honeymoon. Perhaps not.

( “If she was smart, she’d give up right now,” Zoe said with an amused smirk. )

Love is like pi: natural, irrational, and very important. It’s also completely unpredictable, as Querl Dox has found out.

( Brainy has conducted an almost immeasurable number of experiments in his life. )
