Why is Rook here

THIS IS LITERALLY LEONA

RUGGIE <-

It was supposed to be a normal Justice League meeting.

They had just wrapped up after a global catastrophe, moved on to budget proposals, updated training rotations, and were half-listening to Batman attempt to force “official business” while everyone else mentally checked out.

Then a portal opened.

Not dramatically. Not threateningly. Just—fwip. Like someone opening the wrong bathroom stall.

Every hero in the room froze, shifting instantly into combat stance. Was it an attack? A cry for help? Both? Neither? With their luck—probably all of the above.

A pale head with snow-white hair and glowing neon green eyes poked through. The floating head was clearly speaking to someone offscreen.

Then they noticed the Justice League.

The Justice League noticed them.

They stared.

The Justice League stared.

They continued staring.

The Justice League continued staring.

Finally, the stranger blinked. “Hold on a second, Sam.”

Then, with the tone of someone who has walked into the wrong Zoom meeting:

“Whoops. Wrong dimension. Sorry about that.”

Batman’s eye twitched.

The being continued cheerfully, as if they hadn’t just violated several multiversal treaties:

“Seems like your dimensional walls are a little thin. I’ll fix that while I’m here—y’know, apology for trespassing. That should slow down transdimensional visitors, maybe stop the weaker ones outright. Oh, and prevent excess energy leakage. And help with causality loop stabilization.”

Several members of the League silently panicked at the phrase causality loop.

The being casually pointed at a hero in the back. “One of you is stuck in one, btw. That sucks. I’ll sort that out. Sorry again, y’all.”

Then they pulled their head back through the portal, still chatting with Sam.

The portal snapped shut.

Silence.

Superman slowly lowered his hands. Flash mouthed “what.” three times. Constantine stared at nothing and immediately reconsidered alcohol. Batman was already pulling up seventeen contingency plans.

And somewhere, in the Infinite Realms, Danny Fenton was telling Sam, “See? That time I accidentally rewrote causality? Totally not my fault.”

Then later someone told me that they had called her Anastacia in honor of the original Dark Souls 1 firekeeper. I was shooketh.

To this day, I call her that because Anastacia means “resurrection” and that’s exactly what we do in DS1 for Anastacia. We resurrect her with the soul Lautrec took from her and she lives for the rest of the game. In a sense, she is also resurrected in the parallel timeline of Dark Souls 3. The name fits! Her name is Anastacia!!

Happy thanksgiving to those who celebrate!
