For the ones who fought the enemies before their death.

And for those who fight the good fight even after, we salute you.

Thanks. Shoulda made poppies for today but it kinda crept up on me.

... (moment of silence)

I want to see you again Grandma, but...I'm glad you're okay.

[x_ms_patroller]

You really love your grandma huh? Can't say I have memories of my own. Was too small.

[guardian_haylin]

Yeah...a lot. Her war was fought on a different battlefield, but I still try and remember the road she paved so I could grow up in a different world than she did.

[x_ms_patroller]

My granddaddy was a vet, died a few years before I got old enough to remember him. But I still remember the stories my dad told me, about being the only black man in his regiment.

If you need someone to talk to, the Bullpen's always open after hours.

Batman's world has Superman and the Justice League; my world's got Batman, Superman, the Justice League, Nightwing and everyone else watching over it. Still, he's got a point.

[x_ms_patroller]

They sound important. Back in my world none of those names sound familiar and I read a lot of comic books. Probably different media stuff too.

I guess heroes come in all shapes and sizes.

[boy_wonder_2]

Yeah...they're real important to me. I'm pretty sure that's different too, unless you've heard of The Gray Ghost. My old man watched it before he chose a different path of life.

Yeah-we come in different shapes, sizes, even different zip codes. XD

[x_ms_patroller]

Heh, man it's so cool that I get to talk to people who could be considered superheroes back home here in the digital world. You ever get that feeling Tim even out of the tights? I mean, looking up to someone in a different light.

[Silence]

...So you humans have a few of these. It's-...thank you.

I pray to StarClan that You haven't claimed more of my brave Clanmates in the last seven moons.

[x_ms_patroller]

Remembering the fallen has always been something I hold dear. I guess in a way, I like to keep remembering everything and keep things in perspective.

[thunderleader]

That's a very good belief, boy. The fallen...they like to be remembered.

[x_ms_patroller]

Yeah, I like to think so. Every star up there is someone looking down. At least that's how I like to think about it.
