Happy Halloween!
17 years ago, a zombie invasion of New York City led to Hal Jordan to find an abandoned infant. Eventually, this infant was adopted by Jordan.

While Henry's exact birthdate is believed to be October 24th, he generally celebrates on the day his father found him... and this means he doesn't hold back when he throws his Halloween parties.

He's dressed as a zombie Hugh Hefner as he carefully checks over the snacks and drinks. People should be arriving soon. The decorations are all in place: black walls, different colored lights in each room, a strobelight by the dance floor, balloons and streamers, corpses and skeletons...

People should be arriving soon, and Henry is thrilled. He's got some cute people coming, both superhero-kid and civilian, and he's looking forward to seeing people mingle.

"I was away last week, you might remember... I was fighting Malvolio, who stole my original ring year ago. And I got it back. But I can't use two rings, Henry. So yesterday, I was on Oa, explaining who I thought should have the ring that used to belong to me... that used to belong to Abin Sur. And I told them about how my current ring was borrowed to save the lives of every hero on Earth recently."

He places a firm hand on Henry's shoulder, even as the young man stares into the open box, a look of complete astonishment on his face, a green light emitting from the inside and illuminating his face. "The Guardians agreed."

He squeezes his son's shoulder. "Welcome to the Green Lantern Corps, Henry Jordan of Earth."

	Henry turns wordlessly to his father and throws his arms around him, embracing him tightly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hal embraces his son tightly for a long moment before he releases him. "You're expected to report for boot camp next week," Hal explains. "Kilowog's looking forward to seeing you there. But for now... you've got guests coming, and I need to get out of your hair." He smiles at his son. "Now go have a great birthday." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry stares, his brain still not engaging, as Hal steps to the balcony and vanishes in a glow of green energy. It's not until a doorbell rings that Henry's mind jumpstarts again, and he slips the ring onto his finger, then wills it to be invisible. Then he runs to the door to answer it.
