Board room. Debriefing.<br/><br/>Oracle<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Arthur..."</span>She was about to correct Aquaman when John said his piece.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Precisely! THANK you, John! That's exactly my reasoning behind having Ravager speak to us..."</span>Nightstar's anger, some of it misdirected in Barbara's opinion, other parts of it directed rightly at where it should be, came in.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Young lady. Your hand... And I cannot fathom how or why you think this is entirely on you."</span>She waved over so Nightstar would see her dad sitting where her Grandpa would normally.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"You can thank Aquaman who motioned for Batman not to be here so that we can get through this debriefing without interruption. You can thank PowerGirl and Cyborg for calling 'I second it'. Stopping him from grilling you."</span>She took a deep breath.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Now. Let's back up to the beginning of the battle itself, and tell us what moves you made to place your people. We will deal with Zatanna and Freya. But first... What led up to their behavior for why they are on report? Who's idea was it for the speedsters to attempt the risky move, which Barry thought was the only real alternative to possibly stopping that witch? Most important: What caused everything to spiral out of control so quickly, the description even from Artemis was 'blinded'? How did Loki manage to blind ALL of you? Even if it was temporarily? Not even the most seasoned veteran leader would've stood a chance if we're to believe Artemis' account, so training, or lack of, is a non factor."</span><br/><br/>"Artemis is in hot water as is. She'd have no reason to stretch the truth, considering it would actually be Nightstar's skin she's saving." Ollie pointed out, cause Hal Jordan to nod.<br/><br/>Dr. Quincy<br/><br/>Emilia was fit to be tied. This many injuries, so many severe, and the blame would fall on Nightstar or the villain. Those were the only two that could be blamed. She had no idea that that Loki was exactly who Artemis HAD blamed for the disaster. In fact, it was so compelling, many of the leaders around the crescent moon table facing Nightstar WERE blaming Loki, but Oracle still wanted Nightstar's full report on the battle and moves she made.<br/><br/>Injured parties<br/><br/>Amethyst stirred with a moan, but she'd be under observation a few days at least. Ember and Elsa's ears popped and they could hear again. Velocity and Atalanta had pretty much healed their physical injuries themselves through the power of the speed force.<br/><br/>Elsa<br/><br/>Elsa, who didn't get a chance to mother Nightstar correctly was out the door as soon as her ears popped and sat next to Atalanta and rubbed her back.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:teal">"Want to talk about it?"</span>She had come after the final blinding light that dispelled the Frost Giants illusion. All she really knew was about Freya's bloodlust. And Nightstar's decision. She was beginning to understand the hard choices that the leader had, and how even her daughter knew what it was going to take to save lives.<br/><br/>Artemis<br/><br/>Artemis paced outside the room as she awaited her turn to appear before the Justice League to go over her report. She had overheard what Lady Shazam had said to Ravager. Her reasoning made sense.  It was just her choice of how she acted upon it, that lacked wisdom.
