* I think meeting Shiva-Ranma would be pretty emasculating for the Titans. Their counterpart in the other universes while significantly stronger then them would be so in a way they could handle. Siren is an archmage, in Nabiki ½ you futuristic martial arts style eluni would be the equivalent of ancient atlanteans, wizard, ect ATOTW Nabiki is a mystic, demi gods, ect. But Time Cop Ranma and Ryoga’s strength is purely the result of training. They will see first hand exactly how strong a regular human can become.

*** Yeah, I am sure the best you can say would be tentative to dubious. In part I would think, because when they have to show up it’s because the heroes have failed, badly. Luckily most of what time cops do is behind the scenes, so much so that few heroes would even be aware of them. And it does help that the TC rarely ever have to go to the same world more than once, so if the heroes are not the kind who are in touch with other realities or times it is far less likely they will have met them.

** Frankly I don’t think the time cops and superheroes have a very loving relationship with each other. Chronos while intelligent was just some loser going around stealing trash. it would be the equivalent of writing a parking ticket to who ever was assigned to stop him. Then enter batman wonder woman and green lantern and cronos becomes this megalomaniacal maniac who destroys three universes. And in the end they leave that particular universe in somekind of temporal loop. You know someone was pissed.

* What if they meet the counterparts of their parents. In the Baderverse Ranma and Ryoga are brothers (imagine their reaction) though Mitsuko and Tetsuya could still exist as one of the other countless Hibiki’s sired by Razor. Ho instead of Cologne’s father could be Elder Lotion’s grandfather and Happosai’s brother. They could remain the same in the universes where the characters aren’t related. Or instead of elder Sink you have a woman who looks remarkably like Kimiko Tendo.

** I found it kind of disappointed when they were confirmed to be fictional. As Supermans famous word of cardboard speech earth is insignificant in the DC Universe and Humans more so. Being with god like powers, advanced aliens civilizations. Even in this fic the Titan’s brag about how the XCOM aliens simply don’t match up. How would they react if they found out that Earth is actually a Jurian colony, that the Oni had taken over the planet just because and the Justice League were none the wiser. They’ve met greek gods and alien gods but what about gods and demons that are still in power Hild, Kami Sama. How would they react if when they didscover that not just the universe but earth itself is far bigger then they could ever imagine.

** That has the same problem the Solnoids and the Musk would definitely be able to defeat the Visitors. Quite easily in fact but then the XCOM Universe would come to their attention and either all the men and all the woman would be enslaved. While Ryo Muhoshin is the opposite depending on when they are meeting him (considering they are traveling dimensions) he wouldn’t hesitate to kill them especially the Ryoga’s. it would be like Zombie Slade again only one who can control time and space.

** Both have mentioned being fans of Paradise Lost so that seems to be the most likely universe the characters would go. Or the Most Unlikely of Friends and have Soon Li teach them elemental combat techniques that don’t have consequences.

* Them going to an Altered Destinies Universe wouldn’t be a good idea if they are meeting their adult selves then they will be insanely powerful. While its obvious an adult version of them in any universe would be stronger the ADU’s take it to another level. Especially the universes you mentioned. That could be over looked (especially since even if they were the same age they would still be stronger) what can’t is the likes of Siren and Elder Lotion who could solve all of the Titan’s problems with a snap of their fingers. Siren or Lotion could send the Titan’s home, she could give Raven advice on exactly how to stop Trigon or even train her. Kasumi could tell her exactly who would make Trigon wet his pants. Depending on how powerful a wizard he Ranma might be able to send them back

[[WMG: Yankee Juliet and India will end up in one of [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/6460847/The-Altered-Destinies The Altered Destinies Universes]].]]
While older the XCOM Charecters are still in the process of maturing. This is the main cause of conflict between them and the Titan’s, because while XCOM are more sensible and aware of their faults there are still too many similarities that preventing a clash of ego’s is incredibly unlikely. This is why I think the before they get home the heroes are going to end up in a world where they meet their adult selves. As adults they will be older and wiser with kids of their own and would no longer be willing to put up with put up with the shenanigans of their younger selves. I think one of The Altered Destinies universes would be the best one. While the Works of Jim Bader are my favorite but any world would do and there is already president in this fic that shows that it would work.

Nabiki mentioned that when Kasumi is a prodigy who manifested her first aura at six. The day after she manifested it they got a visit from three shrine keepers and a Buddhist monk. Now imagine her reaction as well as the others if they meet the Kasumi from [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3146479/1/A-Scary-Thought A Scary Thought]]

[[WMG: The ending battle is about to start]]
My guess is that it concludes with Yankee, Juliet, and India frantically fighting their way through a HUGE battle already in progress in an alternate dimension between the Cydonia aliens and the Micronoid aliens to reach the 26-dimensional hypergriffin, with some of the revamped aliens and tech from the new XCOM game (Giant sectopods! Chryssalids that can jump 2 stories! Cyborg with a jet pack!) showing up along with a cadre of Trenchard Cologne's own alien creations/trainees to lay some groundwork for Cap'n's take on the Cydonia invasion.

However, Juliet and India have secret orders to destroy the hypergriffin because extracting it is impossible with the surrounding battle and XCOM has deemed it too dangerous to remain in alien hands, Yankee secretly knows about these secret orders, and Juliet and India suspect Yankee secretly knows about their secret orders, thus resurrecting the trust and morality issues again! Is it justifiable to eliminate an alien who's guilty of no crime of its own but whose powers can (and already have) unleashed malevolent alien horrors upon multiple worlds? Can Yankee, Juliet, and India trust each other enough to work together and do the right thing? What is the "right" thing in this scenario? Yadda yadda yadda.

But wait, in true TV Tropes fashion the protagonists Take a Third Option when the critical moment of choice is upon them! T-Ryouga and X-Ryouga gain mutual respect for each other as they fight side by side to reach the hypergriffin and choose the riskier option of freeing the 26-dimensional creature instead of killing or capturing it even though this means Yankee might never have the means to return home. Fortunately, the hypergriffin uses its hypergriffin powers to A) show the aliens why you don't chain up anything that exists in 26-dimensions and B) send Yankee and Juliet and India back to their respective universes.

The story ends with the protagonists reflecting on their experiences and interactions with each other and the two Hibikis deciding that – even though they still don't like each other – the other wasn't such a bad guy after all and that, all in all, they've learned some very important lessons from this adventure and from each other and can become better people because of it. After all, if Gen "Urobutcher" Urobuchi can write a happy ending then I have faith that Lathis and Cap'n can too! ...At least until Trigon arrives/XCOM invades Cydonia and all bets are off.
