Centennia was calm and business-like in the face of danger, largely because very few things could be actual threats to her safety. Nevertheless, she felt bored and listless in the absence of supervillains to fight or mysteries to solve. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Sausage-Fest! (comic story)|Sausage-Fest!]]'') She displayed interest both in men ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Interview With A Superhero (comic story)|Interview With A Superhero]]'') and women. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Tales To Behold Halloween Cameo Caper 2014 (comic story)|Tales To Behold Halloween Cameo Caper 2014]]'') Relentlessly duty-oriented, she had difficulty grasping the concept of an actual vacation, continually asking what the point of it was.

She was capable of being charming and seductive for the sake of extracting information covertly, despite almost never smiling in her own time. She was also an expert at rope-skipping. Centennia seemed to have some kind of [[Fourth Wall Awareness]], as she sometimes winked at “no one” when she made a joke that only she or someone familiar with her recent adventures could have been able to get.

[[File:Full-body Centennia in Meanwhile, On Earth.png|thumb|right|Centennia interrogates the pilots of “[[Ultimatron]]”. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Meanwhile, On Earth (comic story)|Meanwhile, On Earth]]'')]]A different superheroic Captain, [[Captain Evening#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Captain Evening]], attempted to reach her around the same time to get her to accompany [[the Odds]] on a mission to [[England]] to halt [[Insecto]]'s attempted invasion of a town, but he didn't manage to get in touch with her. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Battle of Britain (comic story)|Battle of Britain]]'') Centennia was not present at the ceremony where Captain Perfect was to be given the Keys to the City by [[Mayor Wilson|the Mayor]] as part of his public come-back. However, after a robot called [[Ultimatron]] attacked and knocking out Captain Perfect — with [[the Odds]], despite their best efforts, proving unable to defeat it —, Centennia flew out of the sky and down at the robot like a missile, destroying it in a single stroke. She then got the three henchfolk piloting it from inside to confess who they were working for. | [[File:Full-body Centennia in Meanwhile, On Earth.png|thumb|right|Centennia interrogates the pilots of “[[Ultimatron]]”.

To her surprise, it was actually Captain Perfect himself, with the entire attack staged with the intent of providing the Captain with an easy, live-televised win. The Odds' unexpected interference had thrown events off-script, leading to Ultimatron quite accidentally knocking out the purported star of the show. With her sense of betrayal compounded by Perfect weakly attempting to convince her that the henchpeople were lying, she memorably broke up with him by punching him off into the distance. When Captain Evening expressed his sympathies and thanked her for the save, he took the opportunity to ask her if she wanted to officially join the Odds, and she agreed. Evening threw a party at the [[Fortress of Evening]] to celebrate, inviting all of his superhero acquaintances; among others, Centennia was seen hanging out with [[Jenkins]], who confessed that he had long been “a huge fan” of hers.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Meanwhile, On Earth (comic story)|Meanwhile, On Earth]]'') She and British metahuman [[Kate Five]] also met for the first time, forming a mutual fascination which neither acted on yet at the time.

[[File:Centennia versus Captain Perfect.png|thumb|left|275px|Centennia faces [[Captain Perfect]] in battle. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Meanwhile, In Queens (comic story)|Meanwhile, In Queens]]'')]]Soon after, the Odds were lured to a building in Queens by [[Armagedda]] to face an alliance of villains assembled by [[Evil Cloak]], alias [[Jenny Nowhere#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Jenny Nowhere]] — which included Captain Perfect. When Nowhere ordered her villains to attack the Odds, Centennia soon found herself facing Perfect, but with them seeming evenly-matched, Captain Evening soon directed Centennia to instead take on [[Jesse Brain]] while [[Merv the Griffin]] handled Perfect. The battle was ultimately cut short when Nowhere was eaten alive without fanfare by [[Gazoom]], the demonic entity she had summoned as the final phase of her master-plan — with both heroes and villains feeling the loss (since Jenny had previously been posing as Jenny Everywhere with the Odds), they agreed to call the battle a tie and go their separate ways for the night. Back at the Fortress, Centennia admitted to the rest of the team that she did not, after all, feel up to being part of a team full-time, something they graciously accepted.

She returned to New York around the same time as the Odds, in order to help [[Professor Madison]] with the work of repairing the damage dealt to [[New York City#In Reality Z-25 31-H|New York]] by the battle against the [[Cosmic Solution|Solution]].

=== The Kate Five debacle === | |||
[[File:Kate Five kisses Centennia.png|thumb|right|300px|[[Kate Five]] kisses Centennia for the first time. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Symbiote Surprise (comic story)|Symbiote Surprise]]'')]]Some time later, Centennia rejoined [[the Odds]]. Like the others (save [[Armstrong Fatbuckle|Armstrong]]), she was lounging on the roof, preparing to play a game of strip poker with her friends, when [[Kate Five]] arrived at the [[Fortress of Evening]]. Kate, who was under the control of her evil [[symbiote]] at the time, persuaded them to play a drinking game instead, using a bottle of alcohol that she'd secretly drugged. With all the other teammembers unconscious, it fell to [[Centennia]] to defeat Kate Five with the help of Armstrong's disembodied arm. After she did so and all the other Odds were awoken, they cared for the unconscious Kate until she woke up. After she did, they all reassured her that they did not blame her for what she'd done under the symbiote's influence, and Centennia finally kissed her.
