Looks like a good idea!

From poisonivory: Give me two female characters in a fandom (or fandoms) I know and I'll attempt to write a conversation between them.

How about Michelle Carter and Rose Levin from Booster Gold?

Yep.

"Okay," Rose said, gripping her coffee mug in a completely unconscious mirror of her attempt to get a grip on this situation. She eyed the tall blonde woman sitting across from her at the table. "So that makes you my however-many-times great granddaughter?"

"Yup." Michelle crunched through another carrot stick. "You can say 'descendant' if you'd rather," she offered. Rose waved this aside as irrelevant.

"But what if I don't get together with Danny? Will you just disappear?"

Michelle shifted uncomfortably. "I'm still trying to work that out. Rip and Booster are really more experienced with this time travel stuff than me. The short answer is 'no.' I think."

"You think?" Rose's voice went up an octave with the question. She didn't want this responsibility. She barely knew Danny! The idea that something she could do or not do would cause Michelle and all the generations between them to not exist made her feel like the walls were closing in

Very cool, thank you!

You're welcome! And thanks for a good prompt!

It's something I'm meaning to play with in fic...or meta at least. Rose might not exactly be thrilled with 'coming for an interview and getting an arranged marriage' but really, meeting Booster and Shel and getting to know them a little better would stir up some interesting emotions about her fate with Daniel.

Also, I haven't seen the issues yet, but I think we get cheated out of Michelle's introduction to Daniel at least, it happens offpanel.

I can see that. I think Michelle would be happy to reach out to Rose, because as much as she loves her brother (and Skeets), Rip and Danny are probably getting on her nerves and it's nice to have another woman around. That she can potentially help Michelle see her dad's side of the family in a better light is a bonus.

I'm pretty sure you're right. I betcha Booster took Danny aside about 3 seconds before those two met and gave him a very stern/scary, "You are about to meet my twin sister. She is your relative. DO NOT HIT ON HER." The "or I will break your many bones" was totally implied.
