#(JFC KARA)

[pekodayz]

i just thought of some oc and kara interaction thing i need to document since im prob gonna forget.

[suzukiblu]

Some assorted Smallville headcanons from some of my assorted WIPs for Plot Bunny. They did not specify which WIP they preferred, so I just picked a bunch of different ones and went from there! 

Smallville does not approve of Clark Kent’s parenting style: Smallville is a tight-knit, proud little community where everyone looks out for each other that is full of people who want to continue living in a tight-knit, proud little community where everyone looks out for each other. The population at large still considers Clark one of their temporarily-displaced own and were therefore very willing to pretend to believe the “cousin” story when “Conner” showed up–right up until they found out it was NOT a story meant to help Clark’s displaced kid he’d just found out about settle into the Kent family in a low-pressure environment while he got over whatever obvious trauma had happened to him. Now? Now there are pitchforks being sharpened and torches being lit. CLARK JOSEPH KENT, YOUR HOMETOWN IS NOT MAD, JUST DISAPPOINTED. 

Kara gets to Earth on time and the Kents get a two-for-one special on free kids: Smallville is pretty sure Jonathan and Martha did NOT get this emotionally-fraught teen mom and her weird but adorable little baby from any actual adoption agency, Norwegian or not, but what’s a little illegal immigration and identity fraud between neighbors? None of THEIR business, no sir. Especially not if any strangers ever show up in town asking QUESTIONS. 

Jon and Martha, professional soulparents: Oh Jon and Martha absolutely will be clearing out the attic to make Conner a bedroom the absolute SECOND they get back to Smallville. And also being heartbroken about Clark, obviously. Everyone in Smallville is going to cry on them when they hear about Conner and be both very sad and very happy for them. And then they’re all gonna be Weird About Conner, who isn’t gonna know how to talk to ANY of them. He’s gonna get his cheek pinched by so, so many old ladies and SO many manly back-claps and it’s gonna be a pain controlling his TTK enough to actually let people do it. Meanwhile, everyone in Smallville, internally: oh he’s exactly as weird as Clark was when he first showed up, noted. Jfc, Jon and Martha, AGAIN?? WHERE DO YOU EVEN FIND THESE KIDS. 

Kon is too trans for this pregnancy shit: No one in Smallville knew a thing about Kon’s physical sex, so they’re all gonna be VERY surprised very soon, but also Smallville in general is gonna take that whole reveal like CHAMPS and just roll with it, even if it might require some people having some Talks With Their Kids And/Or Slightly Bigoted Relatives. Like, there will be a few assholes and a few over-inquisitive weirdos around, because nowhere is a monolith, but overall Smallville is gonna roll with it and be chill about it while ALSO being incredibly out of touch with the up-to-date terminology/language and having very little grasp of the minutiae of queerness in general ( aside from a couple of very quiet people who are gonna feel a WAY about finding out that Conner Kent is trans and went completely unclocked all this time, and seeing how most of the town’s taking finding out really well, and does that maybe mean . . . ). 

the one where Kon isn’t the father: Smallville has politely not asked any questions about Tim aside from if he wanted a baby shower or not, but also ALL of Smallville knows Tim was Conner’s “boyfriend” and Kyra is “his” daughter. That’s just gossip-by-osmosis that all of Smallville knows. A lot of casseroles and crocheted things and quilts have happened to the Kent household since Tim showed up pregnant and traumatized. And baby stuff donations. And babysitting offers. And general helpfulness in general. People weren’t necessarily close to Kon, but a lot of people felt very bad about what HAPPENED to Kon, especially after finding out about Kyra. Not that any of them actually KNOW what actually happened to Kon or the truth about Kyra, but that’s a clone of a different gene donor, okay?? OKAY.

Things I would keep

Tomboy Lucy Lane and her sideways snapback

The dance flying bit (you wouldn't see it in a fic nevertheless it's important)

The... witch nonsense (idw write a new plot)

The random ass third act castle. I think more superhero movies should have inexplicable castles actually.

Superman being offworld

Things I would add

Better explanation of Superman being offworld

Better explanations of everything else really

Argo City destruction (sry Kara it's gotta go. For the lore. On second thought I might move the dance flying)

Lois Lane

Things I would get rid of

Creepy heterosexual "romance" in particular whatever the hell they were trying to pass off as a love triangle

Filled with the insane urge to rewrite Supergirl (1984) i should not do this thing nevertheless I want to

[jasontoddsguns]

I read every. single. Injustice. comic. for a project, and jfc never let Tom Taylor write some of these characters again.

To balance out the hate, here are the only parts of the whole thing I liked:

Harley beating the crap out of the Joker

Shazam

(Injustice 2) Jaime, Kara, and Damian, surprisingly

Why would you do that to yourself. What was the project? Was it “read something that everyone has recommend you not to read”?

[gainesha]

BSG rewatch notes, cont'd and ended (spoilers, obviously):

it was so nice to watch the whole thing again, once again being reminded why I fell in love with these characters

the second half of Season 4 is much stronger overall as the first one, but the Tigh-Six baby plotline is awful. dumb and ludicrous. gave lots of fantastic acting moments for Hogan and Helfer, at least

Michael Nankin was the GOAT for directing Sometimes a Great Notion

I had loved the piano man story from Someone to Watch Over Me, so I was looking forward to rewatch that, but I completely forgot that the other main plot of the episode is going to be Boomer kidnapping Hera, and jfc, the locker room sequence with Helo and Boomer as Athena and Athena watching them is probably the most horrifying scene of the whole show, genuinely disturbing

I really like the finale. the flashback structure works very well for showing us how far all these characters came, and also crystallizing their story arcs, the stakes of their present-day choices. the last mission is intense and satisfying. the big showdown between Cavil and the Final Five / colonials and the Opera House reveal is a bit bumpy, but I still love the anticlimax of Cavil just saying ah fuck this shit. the ending always made emotional sense for me, and because the emotional farewell was the more important expectation for me (rather than getting a wholly satisfying mythology and precisely worked out plot machinery), and I feel good about the exodus part, too, I can more easily let go of my quibbles of explaining how the people of the fleet actually went along with throwing all their technology into the sun and going into the wild which would realistically mean quite a low life expectancy for them - like, I would not last outside modern civilization at all, but considering the rate with which we have been destroying our planet in the years since the show ended, their choice to have a clean slate is all the more wishful and heartfelt. (also a nice sentiment to forego colonizing the natives of Earth). Kara's "poof" is jarring, but I find her narrative arc complete and wonderful. I don't need to know exactly what she was after she returned from Earth-1. I even didn't mind the epilogue! like, the dancing robots would probably be AI if they remade the show today, but otherwise, the all of this has happened before... message of the show, with all its cheesy directness, still stands. except maybe it's more difficult to share HeadSix's optimistic prognosis

"You know, I know about farming" is the best line reading of the whole show

I wish we got at least one more Leoben-Kara scene after the one in Sometimes a Great Notion. that was a huge turning point in their relationship, but it should have been followed up, and I am sure it would have if not for the unavailability of Callum Keith Rennie. that is the only part of the show that feels incomplete.

I was ranking all the episodes for myself alongside the rewatch, so here's my bottom 5 and my top 10. I still need to rewatch The Plan, which in my memory is barely more than a glorified clipshow with some nice acting, so that could possibly be in the bottom five as well. and yes, that is a 7-parter in the second place, sue me.

Black Market (2x14)

The Woman King (3x14)

Total number of completed works/fandoms written in: fifteen completed works in 2023 for a total of just over 32k words; six LOTR, two SPN, two Narnia, the rest sundry & various.

OVERALL THOUGHTS: ::taps the top of this car:: you can put so much monsterfucking in this bad boy, jfc.

PERSONAL FAVORITE: Getting unblocked by the most unlikeliest of sources and FINISHING MY SUPERCORP HATESEX. uncharted territory finished FIVE YEARS LATER. This has been a weight on my shoulders for years; I always knew it ended with a sadistic Lex Luthor torturing Kara (oop), but it was time passing and The Flash (2023) that got me where I needed to be to get that banged out. I’m really really pleased how that ended, and that I actually can finish a WIP.

MOST UNDERAPPRECIATED: Bound is really exceptional. It was part of my WIP amnesty week, and a revisitation and remix of a meg masters fic I wrote in 2013 after I had a terrible life-altering accident. My favorite 2023 additions are how she can only speak in the language of Sodom at the end. It’s not a GREAT fic, but I really love Meg and I love Meg & Castiel.

MOST POPULAR: Definitely Nimona (nothing can go wrong when you're in love) with 1,200+ kudos. Y’all, the teen/gen fic in younger fandoms hits hard. OOPS. re: my deeply funny stats for the little mermaid tentacles fic with over 3k hits and 86 kudos. AHAHHAHAH. welp.

STORY WITH THE SEXIEST MOMENT: OKAY, so this is sexy specific to me: in Crave, Galadriel taunts Sauron about how he has to fuck Ar-Pharazôn (a mini love letter to my beloved 5ummit!) and this, to me, is everything: “And you’ll never enjoy Ar-Pharazôn’s little prick again,” she says, drinking in the horror of his recent memories, a soured scheme. “Your play at feigned pleasure in service to a base creature will be ash in your mouth now. You will only think of the taste of my cunt with his cock shoved in your whore mouth.” The crass words burn on her lips but she can sense how he trembles, even in this form. “You’ll hunger for the taste of me. And when he’s dead, when you’ve sucked the miserable mortal life out of him, you’ll never take a lover again for the rest of your unnatural life,” she says. “You know where your dick should be sheathed. In me and no where else.”

MOST FUN STORY TO WRITE: Okay, I traveled for work a LOT this year and one night I was feeling down and angry about the world and asked on twitter that for every like, I’d write a soft haladriel headcanon and by the end of the night, i had the bulk of a little touch in the night and I was such a happy delighted lil soul. Such a highlight of the year.

HARDEST: A tie between Crave, which was writing on hard mode since I’m violently anti dominant Sauron (oop), and uncharted territory since I had been blocked for years.

BIGGEST SURPRISE: The delicious lush connection of Celeborn/Sauron in somewhere in the haze that STARTED AS A JOKE and now I’m full rarepair conspiracy theory into it.

DID YOU TAKE ANY RISKS IN WRITING THIS YEAR? Posting SPN in 2023, lol what was that. And neither of them explicitly destiel. Girl. Both tanked but I love those two fics.

MOST UNINTENTIONALLY TELLING STORY: Okay, one of my yuletides this year is really too close to something I’m working through in therapy. Oop.

FAVORITE LINES/SCENES: Okay literally everything in atomic blonde, that fic is nonstop bangers imho. I love this especially:

“Ah, there it is,” he replies. Stops, and turns to look into her eyes. To drink in her fury. “This isn’t your world, Daughter of Eve. Take your cursed horn and your beautiful face and take the little shieldmaiden too for all I care and leave Middle Earth to me. Grow old and find joy in women’s work.” He blinks, nonsense words emerging out of him: “In Christian Dior dresses and Chanel lipstick, in Italian leather handbags and silk nylons, in handsome British officers and those American boys who offer more than kisses, in the rumble of a Jaguar and the cries of healthy babies who do not fear war. Live and die on an island far, far away.” He blinks again. “I do not want you here.”

MY FAVE PART OF FANDOM IN 2023: Repeatedly saying “you hear me, baby? hold together” at the haladriel fandom like Han Solo does to the Millennium Falcon and we did! We made it another year!!! Let’s go, 2024!!!! (YOU HEAR ME, BABY. HOLD TOGETHER.)

2024 WRITING AMBITIONS: same as last year’s: Write more steadily and consistently. Get back into the drabble mode. Make time, take time, just do it. It doesn’t have to be groundbreaking, it just has to be creating something. The joy of creation is like nothing else. Chase that high.

2024 FICS ON THE IMMEDIATE HORIZON: Jan 1 - htp trash fic exchange Feb 3 - rffa exchange March - haladriel exchange!

[shame-kink]

new criticisms of the kara portion of that "cohost bad" post showing up and good golly! golly gosh! i know this language is trivializing but i'm struggling to keep up with this shit without falling to pieces! (not in a laughing way for the record!!! shits bad on my end! not as bad as other people rn probably but still bad!) and just. drama youtubers will never not casually misgender trans people getting called out for shit huh. good luck seeming true and just and righteous when you can't even fucking keep track of a pronoun, fucker.

i also can't believe i have the internal thought of "well, that WAS two links deep, the person who made the video the person who made the ORIGINAL post and then the person who made the 'cohost isn't good actually' post which we're* taking more direct issue with. Like do I REALLY expect the OP of the cohost post (copost....) to check the SOURCES' SOURCES?" because like. yes actually you should check your sources' sources. so either its negligence, didn't-notice-the-he/himmage, or malice. And given the present as-of-typing silence FROM the person who made that fuckin post I don't feel terribly charitable.

*WE, i have turned on it fully, jfc the eevee shit is one thing but if you are going to brandish about pedo-condonement accusations NOW, at a TMA person SPECIFICALLY *NOW*, at the VERY FUCKING LEAST DON'T CITE BULLSHIT. I TAKE THIS STUFF SERIOUSLY AND *PERSONALLY* WHEN ITS A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY to the point that when the accusations are real and people continue to deny it i get fucking ravenous AND I DON'T TAKE KINDLY TO BEING FUCKED AROUND WITH.

That said i do still think the TOS for cohost is maybe a touch too loose with what it considers dangerous enough to moderate cse...f-wise (f stands for fiction. if proponents of the stuff get to hide behind the legalese of "real" child porn - which to be fully clear i am in favor of having its own label theres a world of difference between recordings of the harm of IRL kids and ficticitious shit i just don't think that the fictitious shit is harmless or sterile either. clearly different albeit related monsters in that sense- why don't I just vomit out a neologism. maybe i can get my name in the history books for coining it. kill me.) putting it lightly. But also coming up with foolproof moderation rules for that kind of site in terms of what "creative" content is or is not acceptable to host does sound impossible so what do I know. Cohost the web site is not off "the hook" (which hook????) but i think the case should be thrown out and at *most* re-researched and reconsidered on Kara specifically. fuckers...* *referring to the person/people who made the posts i'm referencing. not You, the audience of this post right now.

[flyingspicerack]

[lena-in-a-red-dress]

You know I can’t even fathom why anyone would think that Kara was right I can see the whole kara doesn’t owe anyone her identity thats fair but everyone else knowing before Lena? it just became soooo ridiculous, their friends, her mother, her brother i know there was a retcon but the way they all acted at the deo even the janitor probably knew that Kara was supergirl and second it was how supergirl and kara treated her, that was messed up.

I can imagine lena remembering wait *kara* asked my bf to lie and to break in?? kara was the one who said that a ~~Luthor~~ asking her identity wasn’t done and then she would bring me food and say that she was always on her side and they were bff and family?! Wtf!? And jfc kara knew lex knew!! it was stupid enough when lillian knew and she still didn’t think that it was worth the risk of telling lena but really lex?!?

(And not mentioning that bizarre deleted scene where kara says that she never told lena because she never truly trusted her, like lena had all the right in the world to be mad, angry and heartbroken)

Wait what deleted scene??

[suzukiblu]

/stares in hyperfixation

Let's see, we've got . . . Kon, Match, Tim, Kara, Billy, Damian, Serling, Greta, Jason, Black Zero, Jazz, Dani, Tucker, Val, MANY AUs/fic-related arts, random rarepairs and wildly niche concepts, and every possible excuse to show off Kon's tits and fluster Tim, not necessarily simultaneously but not necessarily NOT simultaneously.

I have . . . so many unfinished art WIPs right now. So, so many. Behold my works, ye mighty, and despair.

I JUST WANNA ACTUALLY FINISH THINGS, BUT JFC HOW AM I EVEN SUPPOSED TO FRIGGIN' PICK. 😂

Edible Delectables chapters 9 & 10

Click to see the rest of the snark & image descriptions

Chapter 9

"They cost over two hundred dollars, woman! Find those sheets!"

JFC what the goddamned fucking hell are they made out of, unicorn hair? I got a new sheet set the other week, and they cost me FORTY DOLLARS. 

He was suddenly acutely aware that his life was going to be drastically changed by this woman. And he couldn't be more excited about it.

They literally went on one date. YESTERDAY. Calm the fuck down, buddy. 

Jason was currently sitting in her living room, instead of burning rubber to get the hell away from the crazy girl he slept with the night before. This was going to take more than cupcakes to atone for; oral was definitely in his future. 

No, Jason is still at fault here. He still could have and should have sent her a text or literally anything other than to assume that her incoherent “mm-hmm” was an indication that she was awake and coherent enough to understand. 

The fact that Kara feels like apologising is super gross. 

Thankfully, he didn’t get called back into work that night.

Chapter 9 summary: Eva continues to yell at Kara as she wades through the dumpster, screaming at her that the sheets cost $200. As the two of them are going in, Jason pulls up and wants to know what’s going on. 

He tells Kara that he got called away to tend to a patient (you know, seeing as how he’s a goddamned hospital doctor and everything), and when Kara “responded” to him, he thought that leaving a note wasn’t necessary. 

They go inside, but Jason waits while Kara showers to rid herself of the stench of the dumpster. As she’s doing this, she thinks that she owes Jason an apology, rather than the dude who left without leaving a fucking note or even bothering to send her a goddamned text. 

She gets out, apologises for her behaviour, and then goes down on him. After this is finished, the narration glosses over them having sex, like the author is already bored with her own work. I know I am; there’s literally no actual problem in this novel. 

Chapter 10

 Jason just smiled silently, and slipped his arm around her shoulder as they walked to the parking lot.

Chapter 10 summary: The next morning, Kara makes plans to spend the evening together with Jason. But once she’s in the bakery, she realises that she has too much work, and cancels on him. 

Jason meanwhile decides to go to the gym since he doesn’t have anything better to do on his day off. While he’s there, his sister comes over and says that she’s meeting up with some guy. Jason then rehashes the miscommunication between Kara, as if we hadn’t spent the past three fucking chapters going over this! But there’s literally no plot, so I guess the author wanted to hammer in the only actual problem in the book. 

After Jamie leaves with her date, Jason then is despondent over not getting to see Kara that night. So he decides to bring roses to her bakery, which Kara is obviously pleased about. She lets him into the kitchen for a baking lesson, and the two of them leave together.

Plot? What plot? Everything has been resolved by chapter 9. There is nothing keeping them apart from each other, no petty mean girl driving a wedge into their relationship, no miscommunication, etc etc. Why the fuck are there 23 chapters in this book if 14 of them are the “and they lived happily ever after”?

She Hulk Episode 1 | Hulk saves the men from She Hulk

Those women dressing her up was the only way for this to happen, if she was fucked up & bloody like before, the m8s would've helped her. 

 We can’t have helpful useful mens, XY Vessels are bad, must be rapists or assholes. 

Unless they’re attractive to Jen, like Matt, then they’re good.

Or non-threatening like Pug

Or neutral like her pops

Wouldn't surprise me if the entire show was an elaborate wet dream and Jen wakes up from being asleep in her original office. Same loser she was 5min ago.

Bruce’ Father killed his mum in front of him, abused him for being born because Brian was convinced that Bruce was a demon monster child spawned from Gamma itself.

Nothing Bruce did was good enough, not even a baby. And his only protection was his mother, until her life ended in their home/on the driveway of their home. (Depending on universe)

Hulk, like Batman, is a coping mechanism of a scared vulnerable child that was desperate for a Guardian/Father to protect him so one was born inside his head and came to life through a freak event, that we now know (IMMORTAL HULK) opened a door into another Universe.

Green Door. Gammaverse.

And that man became one of the most powerful beings in comic fiction. Because his father was an abusive pos.

THAT’s the goddamn HULK.

Jen’s height of stress: Guys finding her attractive on the street, or being called “difficult”, or men explaining her expertise to her (Let a man have this energy, he’d be sexist that thinks Women can’t teach him anything)

Or swiping left or right on a dating app.

Poor Jen. 

Now I’ve seen some She-Hulk stuff in the lore, she’s OK. I find her to be better when she’s with the F4, to bounce off of them. 

She’s been on many teams, but she works really well with the Four.

Otherwise this is why i can’t stand knockoff’s, like Supertoken. Kara Bore-El

They almost always lack the authenticity of the original.

Very rarely do you get versions of the heroes that match the energy of the original in a different way, it works., and tell the same/similar story but different in some way

I criticize mainly the one’s that don’t work (Conceptual, Writing, Creative, Execution) reasons, but there are many that do work:.

I recommend those reads (Except My Hero, only cause Yagi isn’t the MC technically), the only one I didn’t get to yet is The Dark Knight Returns Sequel.

That shit has got New Krypton invasion arc x Invincible Viltrum invasion Arc vibes. 

Kryptonite Rain, and Supes’ Daughter joining Terrorist Kryptonians jfc.. I can’t wait to read it.

[skittlebits]

Lena should take Kara to Ireland with her. Kara needs some healing time and Lena is a touch-starved baby. They could comfort each other and have a break.

[loptrcoptr]

Camping for a couple days has not given me much time to post about bsg, but it has given me a lot of time to overthink a lot of bsg details

And I need someone to explain the function of “angels” to me. Because I’m not clear on the overall message that their existence is meant to convey.

Cylons clearly know about the angels (eg: hybrids and Sam prophesying Kara’s future), but is that because God is real and the angels are his tools, so the Cylons built their religion around them? Because at the same time... Leoben, who is the one most obsessed with Kara as some kind of magical girl, is visibly horrified when they find Kara’s ship and body on Earth the First, and after that he avoids her, like his whole plan/dream/whatever is crushed by this new reality. So... did he not know she was an angel, and instead thought she was a cylon? Or did he think she was an angel but wasn’t really able to fully comprehend what that meant?

As for these angels themselves, they don’t seem to be aware that they aren’t the “real” or “original” versions of themselves (or maybe they are and I just didn’t get that vibe?). So if they are real beings operating on some real, legitimate cosmic mission from the genuine defining power in the cosmos, what purpose does cluelessness serve? It certainly doesn’t help any of them cope with their eventual realizations (except for the baltar and six who were hallucinations, they seem to have known who they were all along?) I mean Kara is obviously rather fucked up by not knowing who she is or why she had to find her own body. She was fucked up prior to that, just from having the ability to find earth without knowing why or how. So not only does the not knowing do humanity and the cylons a disservice, it does the angel a disservice to, and all the people in their life, because at some point Kara seems to kind of “get it” on some level (which is what allows her to go poof in the end?) and if she gets it then she must, by token, understand that she isn’t really Kara Thrace at all, and that her emotions and motivations are copies of Kara’s. And that, yknow, for the entire year and a half or whatever of her living as Kara, all the people she cared about didn’t know any better either. So... are we as viewers really supposed to view the bsg angels as, like, Great Good Agents of Cosmic Unity or some shit when really they’re just fake versions of people, wreaking havoc on their “own” lives, essentially tricking everyone (and themselves)? I don’t see where the justification for that is written into any of the episodes.

I mean seriously, for fucks sake, the whole “harbinger of death” thing didn’t even happen!!! (Unless you count us humans repeating the cycle a million years later or whatever, which is entirely too big of a stretch to trace back to Kara). And that was angel-Kara’s whole thing, that was the whole point of her: guide everyone to earth and be this harbinger of death. But the fleet survived? And she started getting this prophecy crap (or we started hearing about it, at least) before she was “replaced” by an angel, so if the angels are copies of people, but not the originals, then why would the prophecy be connected early on to Kara “human bitch” Thrace, and not idk Kara “the angel formerly known as Moroni” Thrace or something???
