Myrmidon

Setting: Teen Titans AU (of the possible-future kind)

"Well what's wrong with it?" Josh Jackam cut his wind and landed back on the ground, the lightning flashes leaving his eyes.

"It's hard to say, for one," Jai said. "I mean, my hero-name's Tech. That's easy. And people can tell right from hearing it what I do. No one knows what a Mermiman is."

"Myrmidon. I tell you, it fits me at this stage in my super villain career."

"Unintelligible?" Jai pressed.

The lightning came back to Josh's eyes. "I'm plenty intelligible, you're just an uncultured slob!"

"Yeah, and I'm better read than a good chunk of the caped community, let alone the villains you'll be trying to network with."

"Hm. You know, I'm starting to see your point." Josh sat down across from his hostage. "Do you have any suggestions then? I need something memorable, something that pops."

Jai fixed a strained smile on his face and hoped his friends hurried up and figured out where he'd been taken hostage. "Um...Weather Mage? It follows kinda naturally from Weather Wizard."

"I don't want to be that connected to my father. He didn't make much of a name for himself with the Rogues."

True enough. But this from the kid that was gonna go with Myrmidon. He wanted to suggest Obtuse, but luckily enough Jai's friends and family finally showed up to rescue him. His father and sister had a brief battle with Jackam while Piper cut him free and snuck him from the hideout.

"How're you holding out Little Maestro?" Piper asked.

Jai smiled at him. "It wasn't so bad. Thanks for teaching me how to misdirect super villains."
