Fuck it, I felt like writing and this idea is too funny to pass up.

Omake Time: Red Lantern Paul

Paul looked out at the city before him, eyes widened with fear. He recognized this place, and it scared him. Everything looked as if it was animated in Flash, and everybody's proportions were cartoony to say the least.

"No...." He whispered, backing into an alleyway.

He couldn't be here. ANYWHERE, but here would be better.

"No." he clenched his fist as the object within began glowing.

"No." Paul would not stand for this insult.

"NO!" the man opened his hand, allowing the red ring within to glow to it's fullest potential.

<Paul of Earth, you have great rage in you hear->

"SAVE IT!" he shouted, grabbing the ring and placing it on his finger.

<You belong to the Red Lantern Corps>

Fuck the consequences! He refused to be in this universe for any longer than necessary. Maybe he could go to New Genesis and steal a Mother Box? The New Gods of this dimension can't be as strong as their comic book counterpoints, right?

"But first, I have to see if the Red Lantern Corps even exists in this pitiful place." he growled. He had to get a Power Battery after all.

Paul looked to the sky, and imagined all the things he hated about this universe. The stupidity, the bad humor, the insulting of the fanbase, etc.... All of this fueled the fire of his rage.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGHHHH!" he shot off like a red rocket, blasting into space.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, five teens were goofing off in their tower.

"Hey Cyborg, what's that?" Beast Boy asked, pointing out the window at the rapidly ascending red light.

"I dunno." the teen shrugged.

"It could be trouble. Let's follow it! TITANS, GO!" Robin shouted, pointing dramatically.

"Ugh... Do we have to?" Raven asked, playing with her Pretty Pretty Pegasus dolls.

"Yes we do! To the spaceship!" Robin replied, heading down the elevator.

The other four members of the Teen Titans groaned, but followed him anyway.

They would soon regret this decision with every fiber of their being.

His one effective ability no longer works.
You know, that reminds me of something I read about the original Transformers film. The writer pointed out that somewhere between the series and the film Decepticons had learned to shoot straight only to discover that their weapons weren't actually very good against other Transformers. Therefore they had a choice: conquer anywhere else in the universe with their superior technology or continue to scrap with the Autobots.

Truggs is not Megatron.

Heh. Grayven actually gets to meet them.
 
Does Grayven just go on a trip around the multiverse or something? You've already told us that he's going to Earth -14
Did I? I know I said that the SI is going to -14. I may have said that Grayven is going to -12 but I don't think I said that he would be joining his more noble counterpart. Grayven initially meets the Titans as a result of one of many misfires at Project X'Hal.

I forget which version of the SI it was, only that they'd be going to Earth -14 and/or Earth -12.

The universe with The Authority, Gen13, the Liberty Squad, and the WildCATS. Though it really does depend what iteration of the multiverse we're going with here. The latest version from Multiversity has Earth 50 as Justice Lords Earth so who even knows anymore.
 
Wait, which universe is Earth 50?
I didn't realise that the Justice Lords universe had an actual number.
Also what is Project X'Hal?
X'Hal was a Okaaran woman made a into goddess by the Psions, an experiment they were attempting to repeat when they got hold of Blackfire and Starfire. Humans have an easy time of Awakening. Tamaranians, not so much.
Do it! Keep in mind I imagine this Paul to look more like Zoat does in real life. He hasn't used his ring to make himself in-shape yet.
There is no Teen Titans SI. Grayven just has to deal with them.

I know that. I thought FireWithinMidnight was just drawing the Paul from my omake.

Fun fact: This version of the Teen Titans made it into the Villain Wiki.

Sure, it's a wiki and anyone can edit it. But still, it just says so much that this version of the Teen Titans can be considered villains.
That doesn't surprise me at all.
Please tell me he 'deals with' Starfire first.

I know she's more nuanced and interesting in the comics, I don't care, animated Starfire is terrible.
Um... I hope you mean Teen Titans Go! Starfire and not the Starfire from the original show?

Pleased at stealing Odin's Advent Deck

That's the one where they just bombarded the two girls with a lot of solar energy, right?

Nope. Never seen Teen Titans Go! Just instinctively hate that character type. Same reason I don't like Harley Quinn or Tiffania from Zero no Tsukaima, and the main reason I only really liked Honey from Ouran High School Host Club after he got character development.

So you hate the overly perky character type? I admit it can get annoying sometimes, so I respect your opinion even though I disagree with it.

Tamaranians actually respond fairly well to that sort of treatment, same way Kryptonians do. They were doing it on very particular wavelengths and monitoring them very carefully. Obviously they didn't care if they died or anything, but there was a serious purpose there.
Oh look, a reason to draw in Teen Titans Go! style!
Ah, missed the subtle distinction there. Grayven encounters the Teen Titans version, not the Teen Titans Go! versions. Titanverse Starfire obviously has some fairly strong feelings about the project which her 16verse alter ego doesn't share, having never gone through it.

What exactly is an Awakening? Is it something you made up for this fic or an actual thing in DC?

I dunno if there is a formal name for it in the DC verse, but in this fic it is the process by which humans' soul structure is altered to allow them to become New God-like.

Or to quote directly from the fic:
"If any of you who have not been Awakened wish to undergo the process now is an excellent time to speak up." Richard evades my eyes, shaking his head. After a moment's hesitation Wallace and Kaldur both nod. I reach out and tap each of them on the forehead. "I don't know how much it will help but it certainly won't hurt."

"Aaawa-kened what?" Miss Ervin looks around as if she has no idea what just happened. Which she probably doesn't. I hadn't got around to talking to her about it yet.

"Spiritual augmentation. Improving your theoretical peak capacities. If you're interested no one who's gone through the process have reported any adverse side affects but it really only produces rapid effects when combined with magic use."
