Go To

1[[WMG: Ensign Sue was a Puella Magi at some point]]
2Because it will be obvious for her to [[spoiler: go for the God route like Madoka. This also explains why there was that last bit in the comic. It's like Madokami.]] The 'God Sue' at the end of the webcomic was in fact, Future!Ensign Sue, who'd done an AbstractApotheosis, thus becoming a godlike figure, like Madoka in Puella Magi Madoka Magica, who uses the wish that will make her a Puella Magi into becoming the concept of hope. Sue did something similar, thus becoming God-Sue from the end.
3* [[spoiler: Jossed. Ensign Sue is a piece of God-Sue/Sue Prime]]
4
5[[WMG:Ensign Sue is really [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Q]]]]
6Think about it. Which character in ''Franchise/StarTrek'' is both a {{reality warper}} and a ''huge'' pain in the ass?
7* Anne May is ''claiming'' to be half-Q.
8
9[[WMG: This series is a self-insert fanfic]]
10That's why God is Sue.
11** Confirmed as of the finale of Ensign 2: The Wrath of Sue. She's also the real BigBad.
12
13[[WMG: Ensign Sue will become a normal person]]
14She's already lost her RealityWarper powers, but is still an annoying, Sue-like person. Without her powers, the universe won't warp to conform to her view of the world, meaning she will have to change to suit it.
15* Or she could go full on Sue and die in HeroicSacrifice to [[MessianicArchetype save us all]] and we all will mourn the loss of this TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth ''[[PuritySue angel]]''.
16** [[spoiler:Doesn't happen. She just quietly fades into nonexistence after the big battle is over. She even implicitly acknowledges that if she were to try to get their attention and stay, she would indeed still be a Sue. She chooses to exit reality in a way uncharacteristic of a Sue, so her Sueish traits don't come full circle as previously suggested.]]
17* Confirmed -- she is now human.
18
19[[WMG: Kirk is not a Sue]]
20* The comic will have an in-depth look as to what equals a sue and what equals just another character, such as Chekov's new girlfriend or even Kirk himself and contrast them against Wolverine and Wesley for reasons. We might even get all philosophical with "all characters have the potential to be Sues" but that it's all in the execution.
21* Example, no true Sue would lose as many fights as reboot!Kirk does, or get so much shit thrown at them and only barely survive like in Into Darkness.
22* Another example: One of the key points of a Mary Sue character is that he/she is perfect, and so Sue is never wrong. No Mary-Sue ever doubts herself. In order to [[spoiler: go into the HeroicBSOD at the end of comic 2]], ''Kirk would have had to have doubted himself''. And no Mary Sue ever does that.
23* Chekov's girlfriend will be used an example of a good original character, she doesn't overly interfere with the stories of the others and usually only shows up when needed, unlike say Wesley who was seemingly always needed.
24* And the person pointing all this out will be the original Sue.
25** This part got {{Jossed}}. It wasn't God Sue or Ensign Sue who pointed this out, but Denny Crane.
26
27[[WMG: Canon!Logan is not Woverine-Sue]]
28The sue appearing in the comic is a Copycat Sue, mimicking all of Logan's powers and personality, but being "better" than him. Canon Logan has character flaws, and had black hair, whereas Wolvie-Sue probably has no flaws, and has blonde hair. (Also, Canon!Logan would spit take on seeing what he looks like in Ensign Two)
29* [[spoiler: Confirmed- Wolvie-Sue is brainwashed Canon!Logan.]]
30
31[[WMG: God!Sue is the spirit of [[FanFic/ATrekkiesTale Lt. Mary Sue]]]]
32* She talks about ''returning'' to "their" world--presumably the Trekverse and specifically, the Enterprise, which although her origins lie in fanfiction is still ''technically'' her home canon. She is also the first character to refer to "''Mary'' Sue" as opposed to simply "Sue". Admittedly, Ensign Sue herself is named Mary, but maybe she's just the reboot version of the original Lt. Mary Sue? She ''did'' seem pretty eager to think Kirk was ill and try to take command of the Enterprise... Perhaps God!Sue/Lt. Sue is bitter about her death in [[FanFic/ATrekkiesTale A Trekkie's Tale]] or that Ensign Sue isn't being accepted like she was. It would also fit the God motif--Lt. Sue was, after all, the [[TropeNamer original Mary Sue]], initially a pastiche of annoying female self-inserts everywhere but ultimately the progenitor of an entire literary race: the Sues. Which basically makes Lt. Sue the Creator and God (Goddess?) of all Mary Sues.
33** [[http://www.claremoseley.com/ensign-cubed-crisis-of-infinite-sues/ensign-cubed-crisis-of-infinite-sues-40/ Confirmed]].
34
35[[WMG: Kirk and Spock will be able to shake off their Sue status.]]
36* The third volume will depict their slow realization that it isn't certain idealized traits and unlikely events that make one a Sue, but poorly handled characterization and writing. Kirk, Spock, Wolverine and the Doctor will acknowledge that they carry many warning signs for potential sues with their traits and backstories, and accepting this will give them the strength to challenge the Sue menace who lack their strong characterization. Perhaps even Ensign Sue will properly redeem herself after gaining some legitimate character development.
37** Spock gets through with a little help from Ensign Sue.
38
39[[WMG: Ensign Sue is the daughter of God Sue.]]
40* God Sue “blessed” a mortal woman with her child, who happens to be Ensign Sue, much like how the Virgin Mary was blessed with a child of God (Jesus) in the Bible. Ensign Sue inherits her looks and psychic powers from her mother, who secretly takes away the latter when she’s brought back to the ''Enterprise'' from the Harry Potter universe. Plus, this would make a great LukeIAmYourFather moment in ''Ensign 3''.
41** Empress Sue addresses God Sue as "Mother". she means "Mother" like in "MotherOfAThousandYoung" since all the Sues are {{Pieces Of|God}} GodModeSue.
42
43[[WMG: Only one Sue can affect the universe at a time without being noticed.]]
44That's why the ''Enterprise'' crew didn't fall for her charms: they already had [[spoiler:Kirk as]] a "resident" Sue. The future crew was able to boot Anna Mae because Wesley occupied their universe's Sue slot. It's been speculated that the longer a Sue remains in a universe, the more they warp the characters' minds, but when the original landed in ''Harry Potter'', her power was in full effect the moment she arrived, so that can't be it. Picard's...mannerisms...have some other explanation (maybe because Anna Mae, unlike Mary, seems to be malevolent instead of ObliviouslyEvil).
45
46[[WMG: Sue!Spock is TheMole to the sues.]]
47That's why he tried to get them to tell him their full plans. And if he were truly converted, wouldn't he be more enthusiastic about marrying Wolverine!Sue?
48
49[[WMG: Ensign Sue would be the only able to defeat God Sue.]]
50Ensign has started to go through a painful but necessary CharacterDevelopment and has been gradually losing her [[BuffySpeak Sue-ish-ness]], but she's still the prototype God Sue created so she's the only one who can face the Sues' reality warping/mind alterning powers. Thanks to CharacterDevelopment and discovering real empathy, she'll because an actual ChosenOne.
51
52[[WMG: Denny Crane is actually Prime!Kirk.]]
53With [[spoiler:Prime!Spock subdued and frozen in carbonite]], Captain James T. Kirk attempts to reach his alternate counterpart without attracting the attention of the Sues. After all, who is more likely to be noticed? The famous prime counterpart of James Kirk,[[spoiler: a possible Sue,]] or an attorney agent from Boston in the early stages of Alzheimer's?
54
55Alternatively, it's [[Creator/WilliamShatner the man himself]], using an alias from one of his previous roles.
56
57[[WMG: Prime!Kirk will appear at some point.]]
58* Yep, it's very brief but he shows up in a flashback sequence. You probably meant in the same capacity as Prime!Spock, though, which doesn't happen.
59
60[[WMG: God Sue is the spirit of Prime!Ensign Sue]]
61She's always constantly saying that she will return to Star Trekk universe and will make everybody love her this time. Probably she was first in the Prime timeline, where they managed to kill her with the RedShirt. But being the MarySue she was, she didn't died but turned into GodModeSue. She created Ensign and put her into the crew again, knowing that Prime!Spock will tell his younger self how to kill her, allowing Ensign to met her and spread the Sue virus all over The Multiuniverse. In Ensign3, she finally arrived to the material plane, being her first words "I'm home".
62** It have been confirmed that [[http://www.claremoseley.com/ensign-cubed-crisis-of-infinite-sues/ensign-cubed-crisis-of-infinite-sues-30/ she's from the Prime timeline]].
63
64[[WMG: The story will end on a bittersweet note]]
65Ensign Sue was never meant to be part of the time-line or at least not stand out from it. If all the Sues are being undone, even the Ensign would probably end up having to go in order to maintain the state of the timeline. Perhaps the crew would end up having their memories of her being taken...
66** Played with. [[spoiler: Ensign Sue does disappear, as there's no place for her now, but she has no regrets. The timeline returns to normal and Spock speculates that eventually they'll forget everything that happened, but then a SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute in Ensign Mary Smith appears, implying that some part of Ensign Sue survived and is now living as a normal human in the Star Trek universe.]]
67
68[[WMG: Super Spock is the result of the original Sue's Powers going out of control.]]
69Naturally, she couldn't handle the thought of killing Spock herself, so she subconsciously resurrected him in his current state. Of course, whatever powers Spock has gained from this are irrelevant. The important thing is that she cannot stop him from [[TalkingTheMonsterToDeath talking her to death]] anymore.
