Hellooooo Milliways! We've made it to Friday.

In the Arrowverse Crisis on Infinite Earths there were 7 paragons representing different virtues:

Hope
Destiny
Truth
Honor
Love
Humanity
Courage

Which paragon would your pup represent and why? If none of these apply what is the virtue your pup embodies?

Zuko is H O N O R no joke.

Lan Zhan is all about Love, because lbr everything he did he did for love (and everyone would be shocked that the cold fish is all about love.)

Vex wouldn't get any of these; he'd be Preserverance. Last of his kind and surviving at any cost, Vex endures terrible things but makes sure he comes out alive if he often did heinous things to do it.

Zenigata is JUSTICE! Real justice, tempered with compasion.

Oh, I like this...
Ahsoka...I am at a loss. Hope fits, as does Truth and Courage. Can she be the Avatar of Virtues?

Sabine is Courage, for it was her courage to speak out that got her exiled from Mandalore and it is her courage to change that makes her a better person.

Jessica is Humanity, for it was her humanity that saved her and broke her from HYDRA.

Tybalt is Love, for love defines so much of what he does in canon. And by love, I mean both romantic, platonic, and regal(?). He literally exiled himself from England to save his people, not to mention all the trouble he gets into because he is right there by Toby's side no matter what.

Alustin is Truth. The seeking and saving of it.

Ben is love also. Klaus's powers brought him back but he stays because he loves his brother and knows Klaus would have no one without him.

Wen Qing so any apply here, but I will go with Love. Her love for her family drove so much of her plot. Duty would be more specific, which I guess could be part of Honor, but I will stick with Love.

Loki has no idea what any of these words mean.

Right now, at the precise moment he is in his current EP, probably Truth ironically. Given that he's come into possession of a sword of great power and distilled truth, with the mission of returning Thor to his true self.

This answer will change every few issues for the rest of his life.

Sunshine could fit for either Hope or Humanity, easily.

Max would not understand why, at this point, but would do her best to represent Courage.

Yrael is looking askance at all of these. He'll be over here representing Curiosity as its own virtue.

Barry - Prior to Crisis I always assigned Barry with Hope, which is still true, he carries hope like a banner, but I cannot argue him being named the Paragon of Love at all. Barry definitely runs with his heart. It is his guiding force and his greatest attribute. It's what makes him a hero.

Cisco - I'm gonna go with Courage. While it can be good times when Cisco is in trouble and there is much screaming, he is actually pretty damn courageous. He stood up to his family who didn't understand his aspirations or intellect and he became an engineer. He acted heroically the night the Particle Accelerator exploded and helped save countless lives. He stayed by the side of Dr. Wells afterwards when almost no one else did, despite it having the chance to ruin the career he worked so hard for. And then of course as a member of Team Flash he's done courageous acts as well. He's stood up to a villain with a vacuum cleaner. He manages to operate under pressure when lives (and sometimes even the world/multiverse) are on the line. And he stays true to himself which isn't always easy.

Matt - Oof, I'm kind of stuck on Matt. I first leaned towards Truth because that sort of ties in with Justice, but he lies or keeps things from so many people, including himself, so I can't really give it to him. Honor, maybe? He definitely tries to do what's right.

Logan - Logan is honor. As bloody and violent as his life has been, it's that kernel of being a good man inside of him that has carried him through.

Bill - Humanity. He's just a guy who has crazy shit happen to him and he manages to make it through. Not with any aspirations of being a hero or anything, but because people are in trouble. He cares about his town and the people there, his friends and family, and he steps up when the call comes, but he'd also be content living the quiet life as a small town sheriff.

[angry_friendship_wolf]

While in his own canon's line-up of virtues, Yamato's obvs Friendship, in this line-up he's definitely Honour. Even beyond his kind of obsessive commitment to never breaking his word and conducting himself according to an (admittedly somewhat arcane) personal code of honour, he's also driven to protect people by the idea that having the power to protect people constitutes a duty to do so.

[magic_by_accident]

Sherlock thinks he is Truth, but he's actually Love. He has a huge heart, which he disguises behind the mask of pure intellect.

John is Humanity. He's a humanist through and through, and does what he does to protect humanity from anything that would affect their free will or otherwise endanger their safety.

... sometimes this requires sacrifice. Of a human. Usually a human he cares about.

He's aware of the irony.

[chanter1944]

There's a case to be made for Sariel as either hope or humanity. This is a very difficult call, but hope miiiiight just win out.

(Sara is just over here in her corner pretending she's not absolutely 0% surprised no one else in here asked to be a Paragon on Destiny either. Destiny. Destiny. Destiny. When you know, you know, and you never asked for it to begin with.)
