Checking In
It occurred to Diana that Bruce probably wouldn't be completely thrilled with her for this, but Diana needed to speak with Hal. It was a complicated situation. The man had been her friend and it wasn't something she was easily going to set aside. However, she had heard Bruce's story and she remembered for herself just how deadly things had been when Hal was a man possessed. She had her reservations and while she was going to be keeping particular watch on Hal Jordan since the League (herself included) had voted to welcome him back, she also wanted to sit down with the man herself. Diana called up Hal and arranged to meet him on his home turf and then arrived early. She hoped this went well.

"So, basically you spoke and he just grunted a lot." Hal simplifies.

"I have no idea why you bother, sometimes, Diana. Bruce does what he wants and expects the rest of the world to follow. If you don't you're a bad guy. Look at how he treated Dick for trying to become his own man." Hal says.

"I know a different Bruce than the rest of you know."

Diana had ordered coffee and she picked up the warm mug, taking a delicate sip."

"I hope you do, Diana. The Bruces I already know aren't on my list of favorite people." Hal says, receiving his danish and iced tea.

He takes a sip and sighs.

"Okay, new subject. How is everything else in your life?" he asks.

"My life's good, Hal. I've been working hard, dealing with some drug issues in the city. You know how things are; very little ever changes."

Though she seems happier.

"That's good to hear." Hal says, smiling at his friend.

"Things change in ways you never expect, Diana, when you least expect it. I asked Carol to marry me. She basically said yes, but she wants a long engagement. It'll give me time to settle back into my life and get things in place.

I hope you'll come and share the day with us next year." he says.

"Congratulations, then. I will gladly be there. I might even consider bringing a date."

"That date will be one lucky man." Hal grins.

"Carol saved my life that night, Diana. She came for me when I didn't think I could count on anyone else." Hal says, sipping his iced tea again.

"I wasn't exactly...selective about who I was the last time around. I didn't treat her well. Now, I know what I want and who and that's her. I just have to prove it to her." he says.

"You're lucky to have the second chance. I'm confident that you and Carol will work out. You've always fit well together."

"Yeah, we have. It just took me awhile to get the message." Hal smiles, looking down at his lap.

"So, are you seeing anyone, Diana? I always thought you and J'onn were pretty close, but you two never seem to do anything about it." he says.

"J'onn and I are quite close, but not like that. We're very good friends. I don't know that he and I would ever think to cross the line."

She takes a drink, clearly having not answered his question.

Hal takes the non-answer as an answer.

"Hey, no problem. But if you ever need someone to fix you up, I've got your back, Princess." he smiles.

"What direction do you think the League should go in now that the band is all back together?" he asks.

"I'm fine on the date department, Hal," she smiled. "I'm almost afraid of who you'd set me up with. As for the League...I don't know that we should choose a direction. Duty will lead us. Anything else is almost like agenda-setting."

"Well, without a plan, we're all going to be pulling in different directions. I just think it would be better if we all knew where we were going rather than driving without a map, so to speak." Hal says.

"Do you really think so?" It wasn't a bad idea, just that there was already enough tension...Diana wasn't certain the newly reunited scene was quite ready for things to go to plan.

"We've all been doing our own things for some time, Hal. We might have some issues folding back in as one."

"Well, there's no better time to get back into the team groove than the present, I say. We all need to make sure we've got the same ideas on what the League is about before we end up divided on another issue." Hal says.

"I know I'd like to know what everyone thinks our focus should be as soon as possible." he says.

"Hal. We're the JLA. We're the most functional dysfunctional group in the world save for the UN. We're going to end up divided over something, the duration of the divide is what is in question.

"Have you talked about direction with Clark yet?"

"No, I haven't, but I plan to. I'm hoping he's got some ideas in mind as well." Hal says.

"It's Clark. I'm sure he has more than a few ideas in mind. Might considering J'onn as well. Getting the band back together has been a pet idea of his for some time."

"Well, I want everyone involved if we can manage it. I've got my own job around here, but I understand that I'm not the only guy on Earth looking to make it safe." Hal says.

"I'll talk things over with everyone and see where they stand." Hal says.
