Annals of Anaya the Atlantean

Back to Princess Anaya, aka The Atlantean.

These are short journal entries Atlantean writes on the back of watercolour paintings she makes to illustrate recent events. She's still learning the art, and it's a little harder because she's naturally a little moist, so colours often run a lot more, but she's slowly getting there.

## S4E8 - All Risk, No Reward

2020, February 22nd, Saturday

Went out for food with Boon. Got harassed by seagulls. Then man showed up, said he's part of Villain Rehabilitation Program. Said I have to be there, because I was in Gambite. I don't want trouble. I want to be good. I go there. Boon comes with. Also Phalanx and Focus.

Help out Nursemaster with people who suffered from "radiation". Sounds like old stories father told about "nukes". Found that radiation came from a ghost following Lightshow. Old acquaintance through Gambite. I got magic box from Yamato's weapons stash to imprison the ghost. Turns out it's Lightshow's father. I understand. We let her go.

Boon was a big demon for a while. May have torn Lightshow's eye out. She made her better however. Making amends. Undoing damage you've done. That's a hero thing. I shall do that too.

## Time Passes - Jack of Clubs

2020, February 26th
Visited Big High's Big Team fan club today. Talk to Faith and Toni. Saw Kurt again. Asked them about what heroes act like. Thought people with knowledge of heroes with some distance to the position might have solid ideas. They talked a lot. Faith was "fangirling" for a bit. I don't understand this, but it seems similar to how some subjects of my late grandfather became ecstatic in the presence of my father and uncles.

## Hangout - Jack of Hearts

2020, March 21st
This was a fun Saturday. I learned how to make cupcakes with Verve. I battled Herald Aman in the Danger Room with The Jackal, and have promise of a true duel with Boon. I also learned I cannot just ask "random people" to kiss me, which I only did as part of an experiment. I do not know what it is like to be kissed, or what it is like to be the one doing the kissing. Either way, Frankie and Bolt gave me the rules that should be abided by before even considering asking someone if they would kiss me. This saddens me, as it means the entire team is excluded from my options. I understand that I cannot expect everyone to want to kiss me, that is obvious. However, if I must expect others to be comfortable with me... or for me to understand them well enough to get to know them well... I fear I must be content with never knowing what a kiss feels like.

## S4E67 - Monday Night's Alright For Fightin'

2020, May 11th, Monday
Received call from Anomaly. He's the one with the beard. Got word from the future of an attack on the Halcyon City Museum of Culture and History starting soon. Went there with Anomaly and Phalanx. Found Rewind already present. I was happy to work with them again.
Encountered mirror-masked villain named Tempus Fuckit Tempus Fugit (pardon my language). They have a history with Rewind. In attempt to steal a magic circlet of an Egyptian deity, Tempus Fugit sent us to the past. I think. We were in Zodiac City and felt ourselves falling. There was chaos around us. I took note of a flying figure whom I recognized as The Destroyer. Anomaly and Rewind made me aware that we were well and truly in the past, at the very event where Zodiac City ceased to be a flying island in the sky and plummeted down, only to be caught by the tree that she would create then.
I was frozen. Did I here receive a chance to stop the tree from being created? Montreal is in a much better location in our present, but... if I were to change the course of history, my father might yet be alive. Our family wouldn't have been rent apart. I wouldn't have become a disgrace. These are all things I could prevent!
But how? I had summoned great power defending that very same tree just the week prior. I did not think I had it in me to summon such power again on such short notice. Would I fall to murder? I'd looked to my trident, recalling how my uncle's spirit had whispered to me before about such vile actions, insidiously spurring me to violence against others. No, I couldn't. In spite of how much I'd hated the Big Team in the past for my father's fate, I've come to accept that each of their actions had been with the intent to do good. None here possess the gift to see the future. Yet if there were, no doubt acting on such visions would produce other, greater challenges and tragedies.
I have come to terms with the tragedies that have befallen me. I am trying to come to terms with the tragedies I have inflicted on others making reparations for the tragedies I have inflicted on others. I have seen good examples of how to do so. I must yet learn how to properly act as such.
Rewind now has to come to terms with the discovery that Tempus Fugit is their sister, Emmy. Some version of her, that is. There is another Emmy, Rewind's Emmy, who appears to be one of the Zodiac Transformed. They also have a mother who is lost (but not dead). I feel in them a kindred spirit. I hope I can help them find their mother again and to protect their younger sibling.
Older siblings have to protect their younger siblings, after all.
