Hey Gabs,

>>First of all yay Legion! I love the legion! Will we be seeing them in other chapter installments in the future?

I don't know. LOL This is just a scene from the future. it's supposed to be a teaser, mostly to show how things work out down the road, but I haven't decided on many of the details. I don't know how the Legion plays into things exactly, but if I get to write this part of the timeline in continuity, they have a big role to play in enabling Bruce and Clark to go on past their natural span.

>>And I love the fact that they have kids, but their son mentioned brothers and sisters...How many did they have?

I haven't decided, LOL. It depends upon whether I'm going to write the actual Bat-family in this continuity, or whether I'm going to ignore the Robins. I might write Tim *or* Dick but ignore all the others. I don't know. If I write Dick, I'd write him much younger, where Bruce picks him up after at least ten years of being Batman. I might have the older brother be Dick -- I don't know.

Generally, I was thinking four boys and a girl. Birthing matrix. But no less than three boys and a girl. Two have to take up the mantles, one girl just because, and at least one other boy has to be the family black sheep.

>>That sucks...I just hope it's just Jr (or whatever his name is lol) thinking that and not being entirely true.

Like how I didn't name him. LOL Leave my options open. :)

Actually, Jr is right on the money, and I don't think it's sad, really. I think some of the best family environments are when the parents are madly in love. Of course, you need to love your kids, LOL, preferably a lot, but if you are with someone that you consider to be a soulmate, you can't live without the other person. It's like that classic problem of the pregnant wife who has complications during the birth of a baby, and the doctor tells the husband: "You can save the baby or you can save your wife." And the husband chooses the wife. Of course, neither Bruce nor Clark here would choose the life of the other over the life of their child, but I could easily see them making the sacrifice, saving the child, and then following the other into death. That's sort of what I meant.

Thanks for reading, dearest. I really do appreciate it. :hugs:
