Randomness...

[caiusbackup]

Well, greenygal mentioned to me the other night the possibility of a pairing generator that would give random pairings of people in the Lantern, Flash, and Arrow families.

So, I wake up this morning, steal some coding, and this was the result. Advice on further inclusions, exclusions, etc. is greatly appreciated.

As is fic based on any of the pairings so created, although many--perhaps most--of these pairings should *really, really* be interpreted as gen.

::spork:: I just got Jay Garrick/Lian Harper! Um, yes, genfic is good :) This is certainly good for a chuckle, if nothing else.

hee! my first try got me Carol Ferris / Dinah Drake Lance. Innnnteresting. :)

So how does a girl go about stealing this coding? There just absolutely *must* be a Batfamily version.

My first try got me "John Stewart/Wally West". I can live with that, especially in the toons. My second was "The Old Timer/Eobard Thawne". So who's The Old Timer? And my third was "Gorilla Grodd/Joan Garrick" which makes me think "really disturbing non-con scenario."

*jaw drops* This is so cool! You utterly rock.

Comments:

Without seeing the character list it's hard to tell what's already there, but I'd suggest Shado and Marianne if you don't have them already. Also, there are dozens of Flash supporting characters. (GL too, of course, especially if you bring in all the random Corps members, but I have a much longer acquaintance with Flash.) I am torn between suggesting every last one of them and being aware that most of the people using this are really not gonna know who Mason Trollbridge is. Must...restrain...Flash geekiness! *g* I think Jenni Ognats--Barry's granddaughter, of the 30th-century Legion of Superheroes--should be on the list, though.

(Oh, and minor spelling nitpick: it's "Kari Limbo" and "Johnny Chambers.")

And my first hit was for Roy Harper/Molly Scott. Hmm. And there's an easy link to get to that one, too... (As a gen piece. Honest.)

I really love this.

Oh God. My brain...

*AHAHAHA*

Kilowog/Carol Ferris!

...or possibly not.

Man, the GLs and speedsters have like seven thousand minor characters. I don't know who any of these people are. Clearly I need more COMICS.

*coughs and sputters a lot*

Iris Allen / Bart Allen

I'm using this specific icon because I can't use my other two - Impulse and Lionel, both make me wince when I think about them in relation to this comment.

*hides* ;)

The Oldtimer/Mia

Er..hmm. Being dead presents difficulties. Maybe back when he was alive? Most of the Guardians seem to have explored other planets at some point. Maybe Mia was in one of those Mosaic cities that got kidnapped to Oa? All those people got evacuated by the Darkstars, supposedly. Not sure how much of her background they've revealed.

I got Bart Allen/Kilowog. *scrubs out brain*

But then I refreshed and got Hal/Ollie. So it doesn't always lead to badness. Just most of the time.

I dunno..I'm still trying to work out...uh, erm...what was that name *goes to look* Jenni Ognats...and Mogo.

I miss Mogo. Though, this thing does really seem to be fond of Flash/GL pairings. Hmmmm, maybe it's time to read those inherited Flash comics.

Joan Garrick / Iris Allen shouldn't be so much more ...off than Jay/Barry, and yet? It really IS.

Yeah, I know, I should think gen. I'm trying. It's not working.

See, I thought I'd have a look and see if I could get one with Piper. First one that comes up?

Hartley Rathaway/G'nort

Errr....
