AND ACESPEC!! 🖤 🩶 🤍 💜

Hiya, and welcome to my tumblr, where I mostly reblog gay or ace things and post updates for my fics. Please see beyond the cut for a list of my works in progress, as well as completed works. Thanks for stopping by, and feel free to say hi or ask a question/make a request.

Works In Progress

Arcane -- Caitvi/Violyn pairing

-> the lights go on, the music dies (i’m not the girl you’re taking home) - rated E

Resident Evil (Village) -- Lady Alcina Dimitrescu x Reader

-> the duke’s apprentice - rated E

Summary: After completing an apprenticeship with The Duke and proving to be a hard and reliable worker, you find yourself in the running for taking over the business when he finally retires. But there is one matter that needs to be addressed first, and that’s the coveted route to Castle Dimitrescu, where The Duke’s wealthiest but also most reclusive and dangerous client resides. The Duke has not entrusted anyone else with this task other than himself. Until now. With the exception of a mishap in the cellars on the first night, the rest of your trips to Castle Dimitrescu go smoothly and you end up fitting in quite well, with The Lady herself taking a liking to you. Which works out well, because her interest in you allows you to get closer to Lady Dimitrescu. Close enough to make it incredibly easy to complete your objective as an undercover BSAA agent when the time comes. The objective: Assassinate Lady Dimitrescu. There’s just one tiny problem. You end up falling in love with your target.

Super Girl -- Supercorp pairing

-> checking in, and checking out - rated M

Summary: Lena’s on an extended business trip and is staying at a swanky hotel. Kara just so happens to work as the evening manager at the same swanky hotel. They get off to a bit of a rocky start.

-> all my mornings are mondays stuck in an endless february - rated M

Summary: Kara has to relive the same day over and over again, until she gets it right. The trouble is, she can’t figure out what “it” is. OR Groundhog Day, Supercorp edition!

Fallout -- Lucy MacLean x Piper Wright x Female Sole Survivor

-> your lips, my lips; (nuclear) apocalypse - rated E

Completed Works

Agent Carter — Carterwood pairing

you committed, i’m your crime (push my button anytime) — rated E; 42,316 words

Summary: Peggy Carter is roped into becoming the deadly assassin’s handler by the SSR. OR The title kind of says it all. There’s an actual button, and Dottie really doesn’t mind Peggy pushing it while she pushes all of her figurative buttons. ;)

Bly Manor — Damie pairing

now, do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hands? (and would you get them if i did?) — rated E; 7399 words

Summary: Older Jamie misses Dani and can’t bring herself to move on, following a ritualistic routine every night in hopes of catching a glimpse of her lost love. She doesn’t realize (and never remembers) that she gets to spend every sleeping moment with her.

Super Girl — Supercorp pairing

keep me company — rated E; 27,395 words

Summary: Lena Luthor has been at the center of several assassination attempts, orchestrated by her now imprisoned brother, and all of which have been thwarted by the DEO and Supergirl. But Lena is getting more and more frustrated by the secrets the DEO (and Supergirl by extension) is keeping from her. She vents her frustration to Kara, who against her better judgement agrees to go with Lena on a non DEO sanctioned outing to one of Lex’s abandoned buildings. There they discover a secret lab, which becomes their prison when they fall victim to a trap Lex has set for Lena and Supergirl, in the form of red kryptonite. Lena’s not worried, because for the first time in weeks she’s finally dodged her super hero shadow. It’s just her and Kara, so of course the red k shouldn’t have any effect on them. She’s not worried, until she sees the look of absolute panic in her friends eyes.

the best-laid plans (of mice and lena luthors) often go awry — rated M; 33,907 words

Summary: Events that happen between Lena and redk-infected Supergirl have serious repercussions. OR Lena tries to use science to save the world from any future red-k Supergirl encounters. But her plan backfires and she ends up infected with a whole new kind of kryptonite, which affects her AND Supergirl, in different ways.

how does it feel, to be an expert in a dying field? — rated M; 12,053 words

Summary: Lena has forgotten who Kara Danvers and Supergirl are. The reality that she knows comes crashing down when she has a chance encounter with Supergirl, who for some reason doesn’t seem to like her very much, for not knowing her. So why does she seem so familiar to her? And then she meets Kara Danvers, and she knows for sure something is amiss. Her memories have been tampered with, and she is determined to figure out why, and by who, at any cost.

the luthor who cried ‘supergirl!’ — rated M; 4,867 words

Summary: Lena figures out that Kara and Supergirl are one and the same and decides to mess with “both” of them.

make you mine this season — rated T; 7,438 words

Summary: Lena brings her new girlfriend to the super friends’ annual holiday party. Kara pines for Lena, but tries to keep it together and be discreet. She sort of fails miserably. Lena finds it endearing, of course, and finally figures it out. OR Smart people, but oblivious lesbians.

i think we’re alone now (the beating of our hearts is the only sound) — rated E; 4,498 words

Summary: Chapter 1–Lena tries to tell Kara how she feels, but keeps failing miserably. And then Kara kind of beats her to it. Overall PG rating Chapter 2–Then they watch Jeopardy, and Kara resorts to desperate measures to break Lena’s winning streak. Oh, a solid M, maybe E rating. Smut, but somewhat educational smut, what with the Jeopardy sprinkled in.

[favorite hiding place (i will keep it safe) —rated E; 5,192 words

Summary: I felt the tiny changes in water pressure each time Kara turned on the sink to rinse her toothbrush. She always rinsed three times, three rounds of brushing. So far there’d been two. I waited for the third. And waited. Suddenly I felt warm hands brush against my sides and I yelped in surprise and spun back around. “Hi.” Kara greeted me happily, gently grabbing me by the waist and preventing me from slipping. She wore an amused expression, and nothing else. God, she was beautiful. I realized I was staring, and also that I wasn’t breathing. I inhaled quickly. “Oh, yes. Hello.” She gazed at me, eyes intense and burning, as she stepped a little closer—almost predatory—and I shivered a little in anticipation. “Wait, aren’t you supposed to be at a DEO briefing?” She shrugged. “They can start without me. Besides, I’ve been meaning to ask you. This shower head, it looks really nice. Good water pressure.” I gave her a confused look and she smiled mischievously. Still not putting it together, I nonchalantly replied something to the effect of “Only the best for Lena Luthor.” And laughed nervously. “Mhmm. It um, it looks like it’s detachable.”

you know you’re good when you can even do it with a broken heart — rated G; 5,387 words

Summary: Lena and Kara ignore their broken hearts by throwing themselves into their work. Then the two are thrown into a situation where they can’t ignore them anymore. OR (As a reader pointed out) The DEO provides some long overdue lesbian reparations!

‘til you sizzle, what a lovely way to burn — rated T; 2,347 words

Summary: Kara’s really sick from a Kryptonian virus she was exposed to, and decides to self-quarantine to protect others from catching the unknown illness. Lena doesn’t think Kara should have to weather her sickness all alone, and comes by to keep her company.

quit tapping on my window — rated E; 4,651 words

Summary: Kara’s secret is revealed, and they both deal with the fallout. OR Kara tries to give Lena some space, but can only go so long before taking matters into her own hands. OR Lena works toward forgiveness while also enacting some revenge. It’s probably not the healthiest way of going about it.

you kicked out the stage lights, but you’re still performing — rated T; 2344 words

Summary: It’s hard to be yourself, when it’s so ingrained in you to hide part of who you are away. OR An imagining of a fight Kara and Lena would probably have as a couple.

heaven isn’t too far away (closer to it everyday) — rated T; 3,339 words

Summary: Lena meets up with the super gang at the dive bar for what she thinks will be a night of drinks, conversation, and chill vibes. Instead, it’s karaoke night, and Lena gets roped into performing. Several drinks are quickly consumed, providing much needed liquid courage for singing…among other things.

you'd have to stop the world just to stop the feeling (well, good luck, babe!) — rated G; 1754 words

Summary: Lena tries to freeze time to give herself more time to figure out what she's going to do. Of course, it doesn't go as planned, because the spell doesn't work on the one person she really wanted it to work on.

Why are teens climbing into bedroom windows?

A video essay I made on the trope of teens climbing into bedroom windows in film and tv! Here’s the hyperlink! While I think there can be positives to the trope, in this video essay, I discuss how the trope can perpetuate some problematic myths about romance and consent.

[ceridwyn3]

Once again trying to find a specific fic I remembered, this time for Supergirl CW

It featured the reader being a hero and forming a friendship/relationship with Kara, James being jealous of the reader.

Later on Lucy Lane also shows up, with James getting more jealous.

I've tried to find it through different tags but can't seem to, any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Fandom: Supergirl (TV 2015) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Alex Danvers/Lena Luthor Characters: Alex Danvers, Lena Luthor, Kara Danvers, Eliza Danvers, Lucy Lane (DCU), Samantha "Sam" Arias, Agent Vasquez (Supergirl TV 2015), Kelly Olsen (Supergirl TV 2015) Additional Tags: AgentCorp, Whumptober 2022, Day 8 head trauma, alt prompt 1 ringing ears, alt prompt 3 dazed and confused, Established Relationship, Head Injury, Memory Loss, Slow Burn Ish, Hearing Loss, Vertigo - Freeform, Established Agentcorp, Past Relationship(s), Past Alex Danvers/Lucy Lane, Whump, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Physical Disability, BAMF Alex Danvers, BAMF Lucy Lane, Not Canon Compliant, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Not Beta Read, mention of suicide, References to Depression Summary:

If we are the sum total of all our memories and experiences, who would we be without them? After Alex is involved in an incident on her way home, she is about to find out.

When she wakes up to a whole life she has no memory of, and which has now been altered irrevocably, a lot of work is needed to deal with the fallout. As someone who has never been known for healthy coping mechanisms, this is a big ask. But…if you don’t remember who you were, can you learn to be someone different?

Pretty much AU as while this draws from the main beats of cannon, Alex’s history gets a hefty rewrite.

Chapter 22

Summary: Alex is as much of a hero as her sister, if not more so, as a mere human. So why is that word so hard for her to say?

[toxinoire]

Wait holy shit I love this idea

Ooooo okay

So inspired by your runaway dancers fic (so good) but BD didn't run away just kind off suffered in silence faded into the background

But like BD is just feeling left out cause Alex and Kara are like a team both work for the DEO and constantly have sister nights and are just really close

And like Lucy Lane and Lena Luthor both know what it's like to be the black sheep (so do Alex and Kara they just don't notice it) and like BD isn't invited to sister night so Lucy and Lena take BD to go have fun and take BDs mind off of it

And then the sisters realise (somehow maybe they overhear or they get confronted) they have left out BD and apologise and all make up

So like angst and fluff for BD (you can change any off the plot this is just something to help spark ideas)

You're On Your Own, Kid.

Supergirl. Baby Danvers. Kara Danvers x BabyDanvers!Reader, Alex Danvers x BabyDanvers!Reader, Lena Luthor, Lucy Lane.

Word count: 1900

They are everywhere. Everywhere you look, the heroes of National City catch your eye, and you're left swallowing the lump in your throat. They're your sisters. There shouldn’t be a lump in your throat at the sight of them. But recently, things have been taking a hard turn for you.

You love your job. Really, you do. Taking care of little animals and being a veterinarian brings you joy. But sometimes, you wish you had chosen something more impactful—not just for the world, but for your sisters.

Alex is an agent. A badass one, armed with alien tech, and she’s an incredible doctor, skilled in both human and Kryptonian anatomy. Kara has just become a prominent reporter at one of the biggest media empires in National City and, of course, she’s also one of the planet's greatest superheroes. 

And here you are, examining dog feces for worms.

You don’t mind. There’s no way to express this without sounding jealous, which you’re really not. Your heart swells with pride when Kara saves the world. When you see Alex doing something extremely dangerous yet incredibly badass, you want to shout from the rooftops that she’s your sister.

But lately, you’ve been feeling lonely and a bit left out. They have so much in common and spend so much time together that, little by little, you're left on the sidelines. It started with conversations about things you knew nothing about, then inside jokes you weren’t part of, then secrets. Now, spending time with them is emotionally draining, but not being around them feels even worse.

“Did you see this?” A technician shoves her phone in your face. You smile at Supergirl’s picture and the headline, though she can’t see it because you're wearing a mask.

“Chichi doesn’t have worms.” You remove your gloves, organize the space, and reach for her phone to read the entire news. “Whoa, Supergirl saved the world today!” You look up. “Isn’t it crazy to think we could’ve died analyzing feces if it wasn’t for her?”

“I know! I wish I knew her. I’d make sure she knew she saved us from the most embarrassing death ever.”

You think to yourself that you’ll let Kara know this as soon as you’re out of the clinic. It might have been a while since you two last talked, but you think your sister would appreciate hearing about her heroics. Everyone likes compliments, after all.

“We should go out to celebrate.”

“Not being dead?”

She nods enthusiastically. You almost take her up on it but think better of it. You want to celebrate, but you’d rather do it with Supergirl herself. Buy her potstickers and thank her in person.

You can’t buy Kara potstickers every time she saves the world—you’d go bankrupt in a few months. But not dying an embarrassing death calls for it, honestly.

You leave work and head to her favorite restaurant, and soon you're on your way to her apartment. As you’re about to knock, you hear Alex’s voice inside.

“Ayy!” she exclaims in an uncharacteristic manner. “Sisters’ night with cold beer after you saved the world and I saved your butt at CatCo was an awesome idea.”

Sisters’ night?

You check your phone to make sure you haven’t missed a text. No, you definitely weren’t invited to this impromptu sisters’ night. You try to muster the courage to knock anyway. They weren’t expecting you, but Kara wouldn’t—

“Golly, eating potstickers after saving the world with my family is the best feeling in the universe.”

You turn around without a second thought. It’s awfully sad how unsurprising this is to you. It doesn’t take you off guard, it doesn’t even make your stomach drop. It’s nothing new.

Sure, you’ve been almost out of their lives. Haven’t hung out in a month, Kara hasn’t visited you at work in months, and the last time someone said anything in the text chain was when you asked if they’d heard from Mom that day. Alex simply said no. And that was two weeks ago.

But still, not being invited to a sisters’ night? It literally has that name because it’s a celebration of sisters! You’re a sister. Even if you are the least favorite one.

Great, you’re back at it again. Feeling like you always did back in Midvale. Feeling jealous of Kara and her friendship with Alex. Wanting what they have so badly. The understanding, the support, the “I’ll die for you” love that you only ever got little tastes of.

Ugh. You roll in your bed, trying to go to sleep and praying you wake up invisible.

It's been a week since you realized your sisters want you out of their lives, so you've been keeping to yourself. They haven't come looking for you, not even when you didn't make it to games' night and said nothing on the group chat.

You hear the doorbell and go answer it. It's been a while since anyone visited and you have no idea who could be behind that door. "Lena?"

"So you are alive!" 

"I guess?" You're puzzled by her visit. She's friends with your sisters. Sure, you've talked before, but she's Kara's best friend, not yours.

"Well, I wouldn't know. I haven't seen you in weeks." Lena glances inside your apartment and you finally realize you haven't invited her in yet. So you make space and she takes the chance to walk in. "You haven't been to any game's night, and haven't added anything to the group chat."

"Has —" The question burns in your throat and it needs to be asked. "Anyone else noticed?"

Lena stops, understanding your implication, and turns around slowly.

"Should anyone in specific notice it?"

You don't answer, and her expression demands more. You want to confide in her, but you can't. Lena is Kara's best friend. It wouldn't be fair to share something about your sister with her. So you bite your tongue and shrug. You're on your own. You always have been.

"Oh, no. No. Just curious."

"Well, I came to drag you to game night with me today and you can't say no!"

"No." Lena's face falls and you smile apologetically. "Sorry, I'm going out with some friends from vet school."

"But we're your family!" Lena tries again. Some family! They don't even notice you haven't been around in weeks. "Just come with me today and I'll stop bugging you." Before you open your mouth she adds, "Don't say no."

"No."

"See, you did it again." She pretends to be annoyed and you laugh.

"Sorry Lena, next one, maybe. This one is not gonna happen."

You don't make it to the next one, no matter how many times Lena texts you or tries to bribe you with your favorite food. You can’t go. How many sisters’ nights have they had that you weren’t a part of? How many times was it just them, never realizing something was missing? And worst of all, what if there isn't something missing to them? What if you're someone that people can't even miss?

You think you finally get Lena off your back. She stops texting you, so you're sure you won't have to explain yourself anymore or come up with lazy excuses.

“Y/N.” Your technician calls, and you raise your head from your computer. There were no emergencies today, so you've been just going over some patients' charts while you wait for the next one. “Some women outside are asking for you.”

You look at her with puzzled eyes.

“They don't even own a pet.” You furrow your brows harder and make your way to the front of the clinic.

“Lena? Lucy? What are you guys doing here?”

“We're taking you out for a drink,” Lena says, then adds in a more severe tone, “and seriously, I won't accept no for an answer this time.”

“I'm working and I have a patient.” You look at your schedule. “A cat named…” You raise your head at her, with an eyebrow raised. “Lex.”

“One of those bald ones that looks like it's inside out. Oh, be careful 'cause he bites.” She adds with a smirk.

You look back at the schedule to see that the last patient of the day also seems to be a prank from them. “And next, there is a dog named Clark.”

“He's a golden retriever! The sweetest, but super strong!” Lucy jokes, and you roll your eyes at their shenanigans.

“Can't believe you weirdos paid to hang out with me.”

“Oh, it was all Lena.” You chuckle, of course, it was Lena. Who else would literally throw money at your face so she could talk to you?

There's nothing you can say; you have to join them. You really like them both, but you know they are mostly your sisters' friends, so you can't tell them the real reason why you've been so MIA.

You've been more of a listener throughout the entire hangout. It's weird getting information about your sisters from Lena and Lucy instead of directly from them, but hey, it was their choice. You're just giving them the space they seem to want.

“So, when are you going to tell us about what's going on with you and why you've completely disappeared from our lives lately?”

“Nothing's happening,” you slur, not because you're drunk but because you don't want to talk.

“My bet was that you're in a new relationship,” Lucy says, and you wish she was right. It would make the loneliness you're feeling less prominent.

“I guess you lost the bet.”

Lena looks straight into your eyes. “Well, I think it has something to do with family.”

You don't answer, but the fact that you don’t is what makes them understand right away. Lena reaches for your hand on the other side of the table, and you swallow the lump in your throat and the tears coming.

“It's okay, darling.” She almost whispers in this packed bar full of drunk people. You still hear her perfectly and can hear the sweetness of her tone as well. “We both have been there too.”

“You have?”

Lucy smiles at Lena before turning to you. “Dude, we're the black sheep of our families. Of course we know what it's like not to belong with your family.”

“Yeah.” The tears threaten to leave your eyes again, and you do your best to swallow them down. “It's been hard. They're hanging out together so much, and they have so much in common.”

“Yeah, but that doesn't mean they don't miss you.” Lena tries, and you give her a watery chuckle.

“Trust me, they don't. You've reached out to me a lot more than they have in the past month. I don't think they even noticed I haven't been around.”

“That's crazy! Of course they noticed it!” It's Lucy who tries again.

“They had a sisters' night without me. They haven't texted me in a month, and I haven't been to so many game nights that I'd expect them to at least realize the counting of people has been wrong.”

“Oh, we haven't been playing group games these days.”

You just stare at them, not much left to say. They know where you're coming from, and there's no more excuses they can give for your sisters' behavior. Though, they aren't the ones supposed to be making excuses anyway.

After you get this confession out of the way, you can enjoy the night without having to tiptoe around the subject. Both Lena and Lucy are very understanding of your situation, and though you can feel they pity you, the overall feeling is warmth.

Because sisters' night is basically out of your vocabulary already, Lena and Lucy have turned the usual Thursday night into girls' night. It's the second one, and Lucy wanted to karaoke so you all ended up at the alien bar everyone usually frequents. 

You weren't thinking about your sisters at all when you agreed to meet them there. And you also forgot they could waltz in at any moment after three beers and one shot. You're at the bar waiting for another beer, when Lena next to you whispers, "o-oh."

"Hm?" You turn to her and automatically you follow her line of sight and see Kara and Alex entering the bar. "Oh, shit." The bartender places your beer in front of you and you turn around gulping in. "I have to go."

"What?" Kara comes closer before you have the chance to run out. "I thought you said you'd be working."

"Yeah, I finished up and —" Lena gets interrupted by Lucy who fails to read the situation and comes in yelling, 

"YAY, girls night!"

"Girls' night?" She raises one eyebrow to Lena. "Why was I not invited?"

"It hurts, aye." You can't help the grumble that leaves your mouth. Alex furrows her brows at you, hands finally out of her pockets. They share a look, before turning to you again.

"Sorry?"

Lena and Lucy quickly make their way to the karaoke claiming they're going to pick a song and you're left face-to-face with your biggest problem. You can't face them. Don't want to. It all feels unnecessary and you know you're the one who's going to get hurt in the end.

"I'll go help the girls." You point out and Alex stands in the way for you to leave.

"How about you stay and talk to us, instead? We haven't seen you in a while."

"And whose fault is that?" You widen your eyes to the words that just left your mouth. You can't believe you just said this. 

Alex and Kara's surprised faces aren't far behind, and so you breathe deep before you say something else to turn this into an argument.

"I'm gonna go." You repeat.

"No, you're not. Not when it seems like you have a bunch of things stuck on your throat."

And they are right, you do have so many things you'd like to tell them. You take a deep breath, trying to gather your thoughts and the courage to speak up. The bar suddenly feels too loud, too crowded, but you know this conversation can't wait any longer.

"Fine," you say, finally feeling brave enough to meet their eyes. "Let's talk."

Kara and Alex exchange a glance, then nod. Kara motions to a quieter corner of the bar, and you all move there. Once seated, you take another deep breath and start.

"It's just… I've been feeling left out. You two have been spending so much time together, and I feel like I'm just on the sidelines. Like I don't belong."

Alex's eyes soften, and Kara looks stricken. "Y/N, we had no idea you felt this way," Alex says gently. "Why didn't you tell us sooner?"

"I didn't want to seem jealous or needy," you admit. "But it hurts when you have sisters' nights and don't invite me. Or when you have inside jokes that I'm not part of."

"Oh, baby. We never meant to exclude you," Kara says, her voice full of regret. "We thought you were busy with work or just needed space. We didn't realize you felt this way."

"Well, I do," you say, your voice trembling slightly while you try to hold back the tears. "And it sucks. I miss you both. I miss being part of your lives."

Kara reaches out and takes your hand. "We're so sorry. We love you and we want you to feel included. We'll do better, I promise."

Alex nods in agreement. "Absolutely. You're our sister, and we want you with us. Always."

Their words bring a rush of relief and you can't keep your tears in check anymore. "I just want to feel like I matter," you say, your voice breaking.

"You do matter," Kara insists. "More than you know. We're a team, and we need you."

Alex squeezes your other hand. "We'll make it right. No more sisters' nights without you. From now on, we do everything together."

You feel a weight lift off your shoulders. "Really?" You ask, heart daring to hope. They both agree so vividly with their heads, you can't not believe them fully. "That's all I wanted. I just want my sisters back."

Lena and Lucy return from the karaoke machine, eyeing the three of you with curiosity but giving you space. You share a small, relieved smile with your sisters. For the first time in a long while, you feel hopeful that things will get better.

Kara is the first to get up from her seat and pull you into a hug. Alex joins right after and soon you're sandwiched between your sisters and it's so nice you even forget you're in a bar.

But it's only for a brief second, until your friends come closer and join the hug. Soon after Kara runs to the karaoke machine to pick a song for you three to sing together, and Alex pays you another beer.

You can't believe you were away from your sisters for over a month, because nothing is good enough that it doesn’t get a hundred times better when they're around. You hope they are always around.

[unknownbard]

Since I'm nearly finished with the vampire AU, my brain decided to immeditately brainstorm another fucking story, because of course it can't give me a break for a second.

I really want to explore a more doom and gloom Kara, who has a shitty relationship with Alex and all her friends VS Lena who's in a better place and is super flirty and lighthearted.

With that in mind, I present: the X-Men AU.

The set-up is simple (well, actually, I wrote that before I decided to write all my outline and now I realize it isn't that simple lmfao):

Kara left the team and is living in isolation after Lucy Lane (Pheonix) died. She was in love with her, but Alex was dating her at the time. Alex who is Cyclops of course. So, she's a little bit of a broody and drunk hermit living in her cabin in Canada.

Lena, on the other hand, cleared her name after her brother Lex (Magneto), became the biggest mutant threat that earth's ever seen. She's now working with Stark industries with Sam to make weapons for the suits, so of course, she's got a nice shiny suit from Mr. Stark (still not sold on the color of it, I'm open to suggestions, but my first thought was blue and yellow).

Lilian is the Xavier in this story, and Lena has always wanted to join her mother's X-men team, but because she doesn't have powers on account of being adopted, she never made the cut. Lilian didn't want to show preferential treatment blah blah, so Lena got into engineering to make herself a super stronc suit.

Cool, we got everyone's motives down now. So, how do our two idiots meet?

Lilian gives Lena a mission: she says if she can get Kara Danvers, A.K.A Wolverine back on the team, then Lena can join too.

Does this sound interesting to anyone else but my dumbass? lmao

Like, for the record, I know I have an unfinished Spidey AU fic, but I just want to write a completely different dynamic from those two to challenge myself mostly, but because I think it could be really interesting.

Top 10 Ships Including POC in 10 Different Fandoms

Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4

I was actually not tagged this time, but I am in desperate need of distraction from life and think about this particular tag chain a lot. SO…Round 5! In no particular order/ranking:

1) Eligia (Gia x Elijah Mikaelson) - The Originals

It’s about the chemistry! It’s about her encouraging him to take care of himself for once and have his own life and desires! It’s about him helping her adjust to a new life and re-engage with her passions! Wasted potential all around!

2) Fayanalissa (Melissa Glaser x Faye Chamberlain x Diana Meade) - The Secret Circle

Girls! Having fun! Supporting each other! The show should have let them all lean into their gayness.

3) Vandermarin (Mona Vanderwhaal x Hanna Marin) - Pretty Little Liars

I couldn’t find a single gif with all three of them so I stuck with just Mona/Hanna, which is fantastic, but imho the best iteration of them involves Spencer too. Then you get the friends-to-lovers, rivals/enemies-to-lovers, and friends-to-enemies-to-friends-to-lovers dynamics!

4) Karolsen (James Olsen x Kara Danvers) - Supergirl

Wasted potential. A whole season of great buildup and for what?? Also a great ship with Lucy thrown in the mix.

5) Forwood (Tyler Lockwood x Caroline Forbes) - The Vampire Diaries

Have I mentioned: Wasted! Potential! And buildup/development! They became everything to me and I’ll never forgive the show or Julie for how dirty they did Tyler and Forwood in the name of a certain Mikaelson sibling.

6) Arisagi (Arisu Riyōhei x Usagi Yuzuah) - Alice in Borderland

If this show and this ship taught me anything, it’ s that the little, seemingly insignificant parts of life mean everything.

7) Gwiles (Miles Morales x Gwen Staci) - Spiderverse

They’re just so CUTE. I need to rewatch these movies post haste.

8) PeterMJ/Spideychelle (Michelle Jones “MJ” x Peter Parker) - MCU Spider-Man

again, they’re so CUTE!! Still devastated about No Way Home.

9) Herongraystairs (Jem Carstairs x Tessa Gray x Will Herondale) - The Infernal Devices

No gif bc no screen adaptation yet, which is crimes. But Ot3 of all time. They all love each other so much it doesn’t even matter how it’s framed in the explicit text, they simply transcend early 2010’s monogamist-heteronormative standards. If Cassandra Clare was braver they’d be even more canon.

10) Everlark (Katniss Everdeen x Peeta Mellark) - The Hunger Games

Everlark has everything, ok? Ship of all time.

Can’t include a gif from the movies for obvious reasons, but I’m a big POC Katniss Truther. I know Suzanne doesn’t talk very explicitly in the books about race for the most part, but the Seam folk are so POC-coded. Given geography, social division & treatment, features, etc. likely of Appalachian Native American heritage.

Absolutely no pressure to play, but in case anyone else is in need of distraction I’ll tag a few people (and encourage anyone who sees this to play too, if you want!) ♥️ @welldressedllama @blairwaldcrf @doyelikehaggis @scribeoffate @letthestorieslive
