Added DiffLines:

* After Future OL brings up the possibility of Korra giving non-benders the ability to bend using energybending, she tells Mako and Bolin (and Azula, who's accompanying them), and she's put off at how [[FantasticallyIndifferent indifferent they are about it]].
* Future OL decides to show Korra that there is always more for her to learn by bending the four elements right in front of her, to her [[BigWhat complete shock]].
--> "How did-!?" She gesticulates, apparently at random. "What-?! What?!"\\
I relax my pose. "So anchored in your preconceptions of what is and isn't possible, Avatar Korra. You already know enough to work out ''what'' and ''how''. Try and work it out over breakfast."

* Future OL decides to {{troll}} Tenzin by making it appear as though he can airbend, when in actuality, he just used a mundane trick. He tells Korra that it's a lesson in making assumptions.
--> "It it always wise to consider one's own assumptions. Master Tenzin has assumed something about me; he saw me making air bending gestures and the air changed, '''therefore''' the change must have been from bending. That is not so."

Added DiffLines:

* When Future OL accompanies Azula during the latter's visit to her homeworld, one of the locals mistakes her for Future OL's girlfriend, much to the former's amusement and the latter's annoyance.
--> Azula has similar attitudes towards personal decay that ''I'' do, her eighty-five year old body looking perhaps a third of that. She only started allowing her hair to grey in places when people assuming that she was a lot younger than her true age began to irritate her. I on the other hand have far more experience with looking like the old man I have allowed myself to become; a slightly more withered version of the face I wore when I first met her.

--> She dips her right index finger into the icing and then pulls it away, a small white blob remaining on the tip. She looks at it for a moment, head slightly tilted to the side. Then she puckers her lips and slowly slides her finger into her mouth. There's a very quiet sucking sound and then she slides the saliva-slicked finger out again, her tongue following it a short way out and giving the tip a farewell lick.

Added DiffLines:

* The juxtaposition of Paul's usual pragmatism and the goofiness of ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' setting is worth a few laughs.
** When he first appears, Rita's minions ask him whether he's evil, and Paul goes on a tangent regarding what actually defines "evil". Then they tell him they need his help to conquer Earth, and Paul asks for some proof they're actually capable of ruling it properly first, including asking for their ''Curriculum Vitae''.
** After seeing the ranger's base of operations, Paul wonders why their enemies never discovered something so obvious. Then he remembers what kind of idiotic minions usually work for Rita and immediately withdraws the question.
** Paul asks the rangers why they never attacked Rita's base directly. After getting a reasonable explanation (if they did, they would be stuck in enemy territory, surrounded by monsters and all kinds of traps and defenses), Paul suggests using ''nukes''.
** Paul's reaction when he first realizes that he's dealing with ''Power Rangers'', of all things, is a very eloquent "The... ''Fuck''...?"

* On the ''Fallout'' Earth, Krono has to deal with an AI (originally designed for a dating sim AI and matchmaking contests, left running since the Great War) who leads a robot army finding out that he's single. She has her robot followers kidnap various women to compete in a gameshow to be his girlfriend. Even worse, she has it televised.


Added DiffLines:

** The winner ends up being Tears-In-Rain, who has to explain to her father, Chief Balm-Upon-Wounds (he and most of the tribals of Utah are nominally Mormons) that she is not married, Krono didn't so much as touch her, and ARGOS had no matchmaking authority at all. How did her tribe even know about it? New Canaan still had some old television sets (still working after 200 years) that picked up the broadcast.
** Balm-Upon-Wounds quickly picks up on the fact that, while his daughter might not be married to Krono, she very much ''wants'' to be.
* Paul and Superman are forced to deal with the first real consequences of Themiscyra rejoining the rest of the world - Medina, an Amazon who's been part of a lesbian polycule for literal milennia, went to New York and hooked up with a man so she could carry a child, but didn't think to ''tell the guy about it'', as she was still doing things the way they did things back on Old Themiscyra when they still had men, and didn't think this guy might want to do more than pump and dumb. He thought they were dating, and didn't realize he was a glorified sperm donor.
** Tryphene, one of Medina's lovers, is rather captivated by Superman, and asks if she can pick him when it's "her turn", impressed by his ability to fly.
