[3rd POV]
After Carol had left, Gwen had decided to spend some time with the girls, as they all sat upon her large couch, cuddled up against her as they watched a horror movie. Which she found more amusing than anything, Raven enjoyed it, Artemis tried not to get scared, M'gann was positively shaking, and Korra was acting just like Artemis.
"And here I thought you girls said you wouldn't be scared of a mere horror movie" Gwen teased, upon noticing the reactions of Artemis and Korra, while M'gann just cuddled against her warmth, which she allowed as she saw how terrified the adorable Martian was.
"Yeah well-you didn't tell us it would be this scary!" Korra replied with a huff, as Gwen giggled, and Raven tried not to smirk at the situation.
"It's conjuring, babe, not exactly the scariest movie in the world. Although if it was paranormal activity or one of the found footage films, then I'd understand the fear" Gwen replied, as she remembered being terrified of Paranormal Activity back in her first life.
That movie scared the piss out of her back in the day.
"You-you-stop messing with us!" Korra replied, a huge pout forming on her face as Gwen just giggled, pecking her on the lips as the tomboy just blushed, and huffed, leaning back down in the sofa and continuing to watch the movie, but leaning a bit closer to Gwen this time.
"How do you think SHIELD is going to react, now that they know where we live, and about Galactus?" Raven couldn't help but ask, as they watched the more mundane parts of the movie, which was a lot of talking that was kind of boring.
"About how you'd expect a government organization run by people who heavily distrust anything that's not human, or not from their world. It's likely they'll try to blackmail technology out of us, or even threaten us with force. None of that would work or do anything, but I'm sure they'll try it. And that is the council, by the way, not Fury. That man might be distrustful of others, but even he's not dumb enough to do anything against us, not with Galactus" Gwen replied, as the girls nodded in understanding.
"And what about them actually believing you about Galactus?"
"Fury will believe us, and that's all that matters. And he will only believe us thanks to Carol understanding just how dangerous Galactus is, and what him coming here actually means for Earth" Gwen replied with a shrug, not fearing for his reaction or anything.
"But onto better things, how have you girls been progressing in your cultivation? I've been neglecting my own because I've been so busy, but I hope you've all at least progressed somewhat" Gwena asked, as she hadn't actually been progressing much in cultivation, focusing more so on growing the city, and mastering her other powers.
Clones only went so far, and some things needed to personally be trained and practiced by her. Especially the techniques she was building in order to battle it out with Galactus.
"Great! I broke through into Sky Profound a few days ago. Korra's at the peak of 2nd level Emperor Profound, Artemis is at the peak of Sky Profound, and Raven with that incredible talent of hers, is at the 1st level Tyrant Profound. For the other cultivation systems, we're all at the first rank still, as we want to focus on the Primal Chaos dimensions cultivation system" M'gann said as she looked up at Gwen, who nodded, impressed.
"Good, the stronger you girls are, the safer you become, and the safer you guys are, the happier I am" Gwen replied, pressing a kiss against each of the girls lips, causing each of them to look at her with either small smiles, or small blushes, it was always one of the two when she kissed them, something she loved every single time.
The girls beamed at the praise, as it was something they all enjoyed, to be praised by Gwen. It was a bit of a...kink of theirs, really.
"Now that you have recruited Inhumans and Mutants, who do you plan on recruiting next?" Artemis asked, as Gwen had long since explained her recruitment plans to the girls, mostly because it involves them and the entire planet.
"Well first I'll be heading back to the other multiverse, and seeing about the Spider Society, and whether or not I can connect it to this universe, and this planet. After that? I'll be recruiting humans and other species from around the multiverse for the third city, probably mostly spider people like me, well that, and heroes from around the multiverse, and the geniuses of the multiverse. A lot of apocalypse-ridden worlds will be visited soon" Gwen replied after a few moments of thought, as she did need to work on the last of the three "Start" cities that she had created so far.
She planned on making at least 7 more cities, maybe more. The 3 she had made so far were basically just the "Starter" cities, and the most important ones to start out with. And eventually she planned on making cities for Skrulls, a city for Eternals (like the third city was originally going to be used for, before she had changed her mind in that area), Asgardians, and a couple of other major species.
She already had her clones working on another two cities for the Eternals and Asgardians, and once one of them was finished, she was going to start on the city for Skrulls. The Asgardians were the most important of the three, with their power levels going far higher than any normal Eternal could ever hope to achieve, except for the best of Eternals like Thanos, who was technically an Eternal.
She hoped to recruit a few Thors from around the multiverse, and maybe even an Odin or two. If she could manage that much, then her planet truly would be safe, even from Galactus. As having several Odins and Thors all fighting Galactus should be more than enough to battle with him, maybe not beat him, but to stall at the very least.
"Is that allowed? Wouldn't the higher cosmic entities not...be fond of such a thing? Connecting multiverses to one another sounds...rather impossible under normal circumstances" Korra asked, as it was a genuinely good question, one that Gwen had been contemplating over the past few days.
"Honestly? Not sure. But I think that if it was a problem, then one of them would have already stepped in before I had even tried to do this. And it wouldn't have been a weaker one, but one of the big guys, like the three faced one" Gwen replied, not saying the name of who she was speaking of, as names had power, especially with beings as strong as it was.
"...Sounds dangerous, but not surprising coming from you" Artemis said with a snort, shaking her head in a mixture of amusement and disbelief. Even after the years of being with Gwen, the girls couldn't help but be shocked with some of the things she said and did.
And it was exactly that same oddity about her that made them love her so very much. Even with her being so busy in the last few months.
"Thanks, I take that as a compliment. Now, what do you girls wanna do for the next few days? My schedule is clear, and I think we deserve some fun times, just the five of us" Gwen asked, as they all looked at one another, before Raven asked the question they had all been having.
"And what about Jean? It's pretty obvious she is in love with you, babe. Maybe we can invite her along? It's been long enough, no need to push off the inevitable much longer" Raven replied, as she and the rest of the girls had seen the lingering looks that Jean would give Gwen, and the way she would look at her longingly.
And with their regular training sessions still happening, even though they weren't really needed, the two had grown very close, and it was pretty obvious that Gwen had caught some feelings for the host of the Phoenix.
"...Are you four okay with that?"
"Of course. We already expected her to become "One of us" It was only a matter of time. That, and she's really fun to hang out with, so it's not a problem" M'gann said with a bright smile on her face, Artemis, Raven, and Korra all nodding, agreeing with M'gann on that matter.
"Well then...I guess Jean will be joining us tomorrow" Gwen replied, as they all nodded with smiles, before soon returning their attention back to the movie. All the while, Gwen had one thought on her mind.
'...Time to get a Phoenix~'
