[lena-in-a-red-dress]

Supergirl Radio is discussing some of the recent episodes of My Adventures with Superman, and they're kind of musing about the implications of Brainiac being able to wipe/alter Kara's memories.

Which means I am 100% besotted with the idea of this Kara meeting a version of Lena. Not sure which version, but one who'd be able to commiserate with the manipulation and unraveling of their familial reality and having to recondition themselves to the real world, in all its painful glory.

So clearly a world where Lena is a Luthor. Lex is pretty young in My Adventures with Superman, which would imply that Lena would be younger, but I want her to be of an age with Kara, so maybe Lena and Lex are twins in this universe? Equally brilliant but polar opposite personalities.

Lex wants more and more of the spotlight, which ultimately makes him unreliable, to the point that Lena kind of becomes the dependable one by default? Who seemingly gets all of their father's approval, which pisses Lex off to no end, but she's still left walking a razor's edge?

All Lena wants is to do good and belong. Which, funnily, is what Kara aches for too. Maybe they meet in the park one day, choosing the same bench to be miserable and dour on as they watch the rest of the world be happy and playful.

Maybe Kara asks Lena a question about the meaning of life on Earth, which startles Lena but it shakes them both out of their misery long enough to notice-- oh no, she's hot.

And then they become friends, and Kara introduces Lena to Clark, who's thrilled Kara has found a new friend on Earth, but no one knows she's Lex's sister. When she's eventually outed (how, idk), they're automatically suspicious, despite the fact that Lena has given no indication she shares her brother's beliefs.

It breaks her heart, and Kara can't stand to see her sad, so she seeks Lena out so Lena can explain how all her life she's been compared to and associated with Lex. As though the minute she refuses to be part of the Lena and Lex duo, she just ceases to exist. How maybe early on she adored her brother and took his word as gospel, until she started to think for herself-- and completely lost her brother as a result.

And in losing her brother she lost herself, and ever since she's been trying to put herself back together, into a complete person who can exist without Lex. But for all her hard work, the moment her identity as his twin is revealed it all unravels again. But she doesn't blame them, not really. She'd probably think the same, in their shoes--

Until Kara wraps her up in a big hug and simply clings to her, until a surprised Lena finally relaxes into the embrace and returns it. Kara trusts her, no matter what Clark or his friends say. For the first time, she has the choice to believe in who and what she wants.

She chooses Lena.

in all my feelings again about publicity n overwatch. the sheer marketing aspect of it. covers of magazines, cartoons, interviews, random civilians grilling them. they're heroes, they're not politicians or bureaucrats. leaders in their fields and dressed in the overwatch blues.

[ekingston]

this is THE. MOST AMAZING THING I’VE EVER SEEN

Someone should put a supercorp fan fic recipe book together with all the delicious food Kara and Lena have made in the fics that have made us both horny //and/ hungry 🤤 🔥

yes can we PLEASE make this a thing you know i have mine locked & loaded

[dilfl0v3rss]

mouthful

“please…please no more i can’t take it” you whimpered, your hands shielding your aching pussy from the lips of your hungry girlfriend. her dark grey eyes instantly shot up toward your face, giving you a deadly stare as her hands tightened around the fat of your thighs. “move”

a quiver was immediately brought to your lip as you slowly shook your head no. yelena just smiled, sitting back on her knees before moving towards her dresser. your eyes widened, the defiance in your body quickly disappearing as you moved your hands from your center. “n-no! i moved them…..please baby i moved themmm” you whined, sitting up on your elbows as you watched her turn around.

yelena gave you a small smirk, moving her hands back towards your thighs before pushing them towards your chest. “s’what i thought” she mumbled before getting back to work. her tongue traveled from your entrance to your clit, lightly sucking the bud before swirling her pink muscle all over it. “mmm you gonna cum?” she spoke into your pussy, letting the vibrations aid you to your orgasm.

“y-yea!” you screamed, your hands slowly traveling to her hair as your bottom half bucked against her big hands. she pushed her face deeper into you, licking and sucking rougher as she brought you to your fourth release. “mhmm” she hummed as you shook below her, the feeling of your wet orgasm caressing her chin. “one more mama. gimme one more and i’ll le-” the sound of her phone ringing drew your attention away from her, the sound of her annoyed groan already telling you that she was going to answer it, but you didn’t dare say anything.

your eyes followed her hand, watching it move from your thigh to the smaller device in her pocket. “yo” she mumbled, not taking her face from between your thighs as she continued to give you soft licks on your sensitive bud. by the small sound of the voice coming from the phone you could tell it was her best friend. “m’at the store. hot ashit out here by the way, but what you doing right now?” ymir said, the sound of chip bags moving around booming through the speaker into lena’s ear. a smirk crept onto her face, her other hand leaving your thigh to lift a finger to her pink lips. “shhh” she mouthed before outstretching her tongue to your clit, continuing to eat you out quietly.

“m’eating” she mumbled, grey eyes taking in the silent scream you released as your back arched off the bed. “aight well historia wants you and suge to stop by the house tonight f’some ‘family dinner’ she tryna have. i already called con and them. ion know why she tryna do all this but-” as she spoke, yelena put herself on mute before burying her face deep into your pussy, sloppily eating you out as she crept two long fingers towards your entrance. “o-oh my goddd” you moaned, your hands gripping the pillow behind your head as you felt another orgasm creeping down your spine. “lena m’gonna cum! baby please make me cum”

“ima get you there mama don’t worry, jus stay quiet f’me okay? this is important” yelena lied as she quickly unmuted herself so she could speak. “we’ll be there” she mumbled, letting her friend ramble on about her day as she obliviously wondered around the store. “what you eating man, m’hungry as hell and ion know what to get from this damn store” a smirk crept on your girlfriend’s face as she deepened the stroke of her fingers, curling them upwards to draw a sinful moan from your lips. “is that?”

“m’eating pie. we’ll be right back aight?”

a knowing smirk made its way to ymir’s face as well, her feet immediately stopping their movements as she listened deeper into her phone.

“you two are so disgusting i love it. ima hit you later tho m’finna call historia, think m’craving some pie too”

[riveracheron]

eh. might as well post this now. a few of these are wish fulfillment rather than actual theorizing but explanations under the cut

i have an alchemy hyperfixation and all the alchemy stuff in tmagp makes me very excited so a lot of my theories are related to that

spoilers for the pilot btw

main character gets an eye injury - the image will not leave my head. in the magnus institute ruins statement there was this whole thing about redcanary having some kind of encounter with or experience with eye trauma and that feels like something thats just. gonna come up again

another mechanisms va - self explanatory, we need to complete the set. would love to hear kofi or rachel.

gwen has trauma related to something that happened with elias - this is going on the theory that she’s not elias’ counterpart, but a relative of some kind. something spooky happens to him and that pushes gwen to research the paranormal.

character referencing nicholas flamel - all the main characters have names that reference alchemists, and nicholas flamel is probably the most famous alchemist of all time. i doubt he’ll be given the smirke treatment because that kinda already happened with the transphobic wizard books, but someone could be sharing his name.

mag 114 statement is relevant - thats the. hill top road statement that deals with other realities, and anya (the statement giver) could be from the protocol verse. we could totally hear about the aftermath of her departure

alice/sam/gwen = three primes - the three main alchemical symbols on the OIAR crest, and a good sort of symbolic trio sorter. the three peimes are salt, sulphur and mercury, and are the basis for alchemy. the down to earth, reliable salt, the firey, unpredictable sulfur, and the adaptable, easygoing mercury. i think these could apply i just want to have it called out in universe

lena is a good person - i don’t think they’d pull the evil boss thing twice. i just think lena’s weird mannerisms are from her autistic swag

celia is related to or is agnes - (related to as in. her story involves agnes, not that shes like. a sister.) this comes from a theory by @/pinklotjeart, i think. basically: through the way her death was described (spark returned to the lightless flame) and some timeline discrepancies and general avatarness making it weird, agnes might not be Dead dead. and celia’s counterpart, lynne - well, she saw a fire ghost. also, both her and agnes are the only non one-off characters who have shakespeare names afaik. agnes MONTAGUE, celia from as you like it…

annabelle cane is related somehow - self explanatory, she was at hilltop road when everything went down. might have been pulled in.

a famous alchemist is robert smirke’d - self explaining, give me more canon historical figures jonny

another kitty cat - i want more kitty in podcast is that a crime

augustus is not jonah - we hear jonah’s voice as ben meredith in 193, so im skeptical that tim fearon’s character is jonah for that reason.

oiar group has a messy moment that devolves into actual physical violence - mmm angst i think they deserve to smack eachother around a bit

bonzo cult - yeah.

oiar found family - we got the group of coworkers that hate each other angst last time gimme the “hurting one to get to the others” and self sacrifice angst this time

colin dies early - mmmm i cant say much about this bc its based on one throwaway line at the MCM panel where jonny doesn’t mention colin in the main character group. so . death flags.

oiar is containing the entities scp style - this was a super early theory of mine, either this or theyre using them for power or energy in some way. even more heavy handed capitalism metaphors yay

someone gets ushanka’d - its computer horror: the podcast. that’s all

cookbook statement - a few clues in the ARG had to do with cookbooks, and alex and jonny have already said they’re getting weird with the statement formats (they mentioned an insurance report!) so. cookbook doesn’t seem too far-fetched

tiktoker/influencer character - archives was 2010s and they had a podcaster and youtuber, which were like. the big things. whats the hip trend now??? instagram and tiktok baybee

protocol editors va a small role a la mag 100 or the wtgfs cult - those characters were voiced by other rq team members (ie helen as laverne and martyn as robin) and the team has since expanded!! some editors dis stuff for cry havoc, so im guessing nico, annie, april and others will get a small role!

a villain’s goal is creating the philosopher’s stone or other alchemical thing - tmagp is heavily inspired by alchemy, and the philosopher’s stone was the main goal of alchemy!! it would grant you eternal knowledge snd the ability to turn lead into gold- which seems like a good. evil dude’s ambition

the desolation gets more focus - the institute burned down, the oiar crest has a lot of sulfur symbols (the fire element), alchemy as a whole having to do with fire, celia and her connection- it paints a very. lightless flame picture

trip to germany - a lot of the arg was set in and around berlin, and there was that exchange between sam and colin about german in the pilot! i could see a germany trip happening in the same way jon took a trip to china and america.

[thecorruption-thespiralsversion]

The following is an analysis of Gwendolyn Bouchard from The Magnus Protocol through the lense of the song Making Love to the Dead by BEGGINERS.

For context, Anusia Battersby, the voice actress to Gwen (as well as the other actors for their respective Characters) created a non Canon Playlist on Spotify for Gwen. This song was included in Gwen's playlist.

This is not an academic analysis of the character by any means. Just one interpretation. Of the more than anything.

Making Love to the Dead - BEGGINERS

Come round bring me down like the old days (This part sounds almost like a plead to go back to old times. The bring me down could reference Alice's teasing, Gwen's voice)

And it's sexy, oh, the color of the cocaine (in reference to her ambition being her addiction. Like Jon, she is not brave, but is stubborn)

Deep in five my desire and I took the bait(I have two possible interpretations here. "I've got five on it" is a phrase referencing one's willingness to contribute so a group can buy drugs, or five hits of cocaine. Point being that she gave into her ambition, blackmailed Lena, and well, took the bait. Got roped into something she wasn't fully aware of.)

I wanted go but I know that's too late (kinda see above, it would have to do with wanting out but know that out isn't an option)

Darling go, watch your head (The chorus almost sounds like it's in Lena's voice, but the larger point is that it sounds external to "Gwen's inner voice". A command and a warning)

Don't look down baby under the bed (I could twist this to be a conversation -Lena *don't look down*

- Gwen *where?*

- Lena *Baby, under the bed*

If so, it's the warning. Don't get too curious)

Let it show, what you read (reminds me of how Lena told her to scream. That she knew.)

Underground making love to the dead (she learned it there. A place of secrets and tempting death)

De, de, de, de, dead (🙌)

I read the crowd like a clown on the prominence (Gwen, you trying to make yourself the center of attention and work the crowd, only to make yourself the clown of your own show.)

Dripping wet with regret and some hot cake (This is the scene with the Mocha, Dripping wet with regret, and a mocha consolation price.)

Strip down back abound would you like a taste (it did strip her down, but she seems to not want to be and put up her walls right back up. That final bit, would you like a taste, signaling how much she liked the gesture. A call to share)

On the floor gimme more don't you hesitate (and she went back for more, we know more or less why.)

Darling go, watch your head(...)

Don't look down baby under the bed(...)

Let it show, what you read(...)

Underground making love to the dead(...)

De, de, de, de, dead(...)

Darling go, watch your head (the chorus repeats, like echos of those warning taunt her. A sort of "you did this to yourself")

Don't look down baby under the bed

Let it show, what you read

Underground making love to the dead

De, de, de, de, dead (I like how there isn't this 3rd body of lyrics, the chorus repeats through the bridge of the song. There is not 3rd times the charm. You don't get good at this job, you get used to it)

Of course a lot of this is mental gymnastics. But I had fun.

[xiaomusmash14]

If there was ever a time Sanemi would not be getting sleep, it’d be whenever Mitsuri keeps reacting to anything even remotely associated with Just Dance

Just think: Mitsuri would be into pop music, and from what I learned growing up, Just Dance is literally the gateway to learning all the popular music and some underground gems. Example: I recall Satellite by Lena Meyer-Landrut to be from Eurovision because I vaguely remember Just Dance 3 (I didn’t have it growing up, I skipped to 4) having it, and that was before I even knew what Eurovision was!

Bonus, Toy by Netta is also a Eurovision song, and was, in fact, the 2018 Eurovision winner.

Bonus 2: Oops (Hit ‘Em Upstyle) by Blu Cantrell, an early 2000s song that ended up trending some time ago, is a huge favorite of mine. I got in on the audio trend at one point and I got asked what the name of the song was by a commenter, so I immediately gave them the name of the song without looking it up (that’s how well I know the song)

(Okay, enough about me rambling, I’m getting back on track)

No matter what game in the series, there’s always a good amount of well known songs (for better or worse) that get thrown into the mix, so there will be some rock dwellers out there that know of this franchise. It’s been going on for 15 years now, and so much has changed since 2009. There’s so many songs that got put into the series at this point (and some cut, RIP Mamaoo’s HIP and Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This), SCREW YOU, SELFISH LEAKER THAT CAUSED IT! (● ˃̶͈̀ロ˂̶͈́)੭ꠥ⁾⁾), so there’s gotta be at least one that will catch someone’s eye. It’s only a little less than a year older than My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, which debuted in October 10th, 2010, and we know damn well how much of a culture shock that was!

Even I’m not immune to it, I straight up made about 50 of the Demon Slayer characters into MLP ones (yes, 50, I’m not even joking), and I put down about 200 of them to be done like that. It was my chokehold before Demon Slayer attached itself to me! Hell, my OC is based on MLP G4!

If there’s ever a contest on what franchise got me stuck in it, Just Dance would take the bronze (and silver if KNY and MLP are tying) simply for sticking around and managing to be present in my life since 2009. Even if I don’t have the game, I still look up songs in any installment of the franchise just to listen to it for the heck of it. Hot ‘N Cold, Maps, Mi Gente, Soy Yo, you name it!

(This literally went from talking about how Sanemi is not gonna sleep once Mitsuri gets into Just Dance to me rambling about the impact it had on my life XD)

Mitsuri would, of course, be into the dancing because what else is this woman gonna do, watch the pretty colors? Hell no, her ass is gonna obliterate anyone who challenges her to a game of Just Dance (unless you’re Tengen or Kyojuro because both have enough energy to compete with her for longer than what’s considered normal exhaustion) and will memorize the routines up the wazoo.

“Hey, does anyone wanna play Just Dance-”

“GIMME THE FRICKING CONTROLLER!”

And it’s not just gonna be her dancing to the songs in the game, she’s gonna be belting her heart out too at all hours whenever she’s playing. Tribal Dance? Easy. Love You Like A Love Song? Top 20 on her playlist. Dancing Queen, Waterloo, The Winner Takes It All? ABBA will be a cinch in a Peloponnesian Super Speedy Cider Squeezy Sundae second (do not ask how I came up with that) within an hour!

And don’t even get me started on how she’ll go the whole ‘round of the world on the cosplays of the coaches! Don’t ask her to not get so much up-cycling material because she’ll insist that it won’t be as fun if she doesn’t get into character and wants to be as accurate as possible to them. This will include roping the other Hashira into doing the routines if more than one coach is in it and involves lifting the other person up (like the OG I’ve Had The Time Of My Life, not the Dirty Bit version), and yes, Obanai will comply. It ends up with him getting into the video game series as well at some point because god forbid, Tengen mocks him for being a “buzzkill” and Obanai will want to humiliate the Sound Hashira at his own craft for that slander just because he wants to pop that ego for once. And he’ll proceed to risk breaking his ankles in the process because he only picked the extremes and the super hard routines that require some sort of willpower to not collapse and crash afterwards.

Sanemi will be at his limit with the shenanigans, but does not fancy having the Grim Reaper be 5’3 and have a danger noodle.

Okay, back on Disco Elysium. (spoilers)

Basically, I played through Wednesday/Day 3 today.

I got across the canal and, through a bit of persuasive running around, got Soona to let the speedfreaks into the church. Kim thinks this is a waste of time, but I don't, for two reasons: 1) the name of the club is the title of the game, and 2) when I was chatting with Noid about the big stained glass Dolores Dei thing, he says this: "She did not live the life of a human. She lived like someone who is playing a game. The life of an operator." Like, he's talking about me, there, isn't he? Playing this game, imposing my will, that sort of thing. I'm not sure what we're doing with that yet, but something very important.

Let's see... what else. So I met Idiot Doom Spiral, which is a pretty great moniker. Guy's got a vibe. What's up with this headless horseman story, though? Like that makes something in my brain tingle, something's going on there too, but I don't know what yet.

I chose to have the drunks sign Evrart's thing re: the youth center. Like, maybe that wasn't the right thing to do? I dunno. But also, fuck you, gimme my gun, I'm not your errand boy. I can't decide if he's actively malicious or just kind of a dick, but either way I don't really trust him.

Oh, I also found the Cryptozoologist and his little fascist friend (whose apartment I broke into, it turns out) and got the armor off him (and the gloves from the girl's sandcastle). That guy seems like kind of a creep, but Morrell or whatever his name is seems pretty nice. Sort of. I got him and Lena talking and they got into some like... let's call it sketchy territory about ethnicity. Which has been pretty par for the course for people in this town, but y'know, still.

I dunno, I was talking about this game with a friend of mine last night. He started it a while ago and hadn't gotten back to it cos it didn't grab him, like it was kind of slow and confusing and overwhelming, but hearing I was having a similar experience, we sort of agreed that's the point. Like I still have no idea how all this fits together--what the murder has to do with the "game reality" thing (and the apparent hole in it? Like WTF is going on with Tiago?) and what any of that has to do with the apparent breakup in Harry's past that is obviously some sort of engine for all this. But there are enough patterns swirling around in all the chaos that the further I go, the more I trust it does all fit, at least somehow.

[thepaintedlady00]

Summary:

My name is Izzy, and I'm Donald Duck's niece. I'm 6 years older than my brothers Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and we all grew up together on the houseboat. My brothers are incredibly mischevious and are always causing trouble, so they can never be left alone, but Uncle Donald almost never lets me babysit them. One day, he brings us to meet our Uncle Scrooge, the richest duck in the world! He seems vaguely familiar, almost like I've seen him before, but that can't be possible. I've never seen him on TV, so where could I have possibly seen him before?

**AO3 & Wattpad links in masterpost pinned to the top of the blog**

I yawn while standing next to Uncle Donald and Huey, who are talking to the bank teller. It's been around a week and a half since I've been to the doctor's office, and I'm only on one crutch now, on the opposite side as my hurt knee. The pain isn't that bad right now, but I'm starting to get sore from standing in line for so long. Dr. Patel prescribed me some pain meds and I'm only taking them twice a day for a few more weeks. I keep trying to bring up that I want to go back to the car to sit down and rest my leg, but I keep getting interrupted before I can even say anything because Uncle Donald is in a heated discussion with the bank teller over getting a loan to help fix up the houseboat again.

He squawks, "What?! Whaddya mean no?!"

He grumbles under his breath while scribbling over the 'declined' stamp, and I say, "Can I just-"

Huey interrupts me, "I'll do the talking, Iz. I understand our uncle is a financial risk, but his houseboat is also his workplace, so fixing it qualifies for a small business loan. Are there any plans you can offer to the accident prone?"

The bank teller starts clacking keys on the computer's keyboard, an annoyed expression on his face, and Big Time Beagle and two of his brothers, Bouncer and Burger, slam opem the bank's doors, wearing costume masks over their face masks.

Big Time yells, "This is a robbery!"

Bouncer is facing the wrong way, and Big Time sighs before turning him around.

Bouncer asks something I can't hear, but Big Time doesn't answer, ordering the bank tellers, "Gimme all your money!"

He looks around before spottingaking direct eye contact with Huey, making his way over as he says lowly, "Hi, Huey. I see your big sister isn't gonna be able to protect you this time."

I growl at him, and Uncle Donald, his arms tied up in the chain holding the pen to the table, exclaims, "You? Stay away!"

I spot Fenton trying to pull a huge duffle bag through a bank teller's window, and facepalm as Burger pokes the bag and there's a large flash of light before Gizmoduck appears.

He nervously says, "Uh, hi!"

Big Time asks, "What the-"

He gets punched by Gizmoduck's robo-arm and it flails around for a bit, nearly hitting other bank patrons, Gizmoduck saying, "Oof, that's mine." He finally gets his arm back, saying, "Everyone stay down, I'm wearing an unstable nuclear accelatron, so we may have a tiny situation here."

Big Time grabs me and Huey and takes my crutch, holding it against our throats as I struggle to keep standing.

He says, "Stay back, robo-nerd, or the normal nerds get it."

Gizmoduck says, "Oh, well then, um, engage combat mode."

He suddenly gets fully decked out in weapons and missiles and he starts spinning wildly, missles firing all over the place and blowing holes in the walls and one in the ceiling.

Bouncer exclaims while running out of the bank, "He's out of control!"

Big Time let's go of Huey and I, throwing my crutch back at me and it hits my back, making me painfully fall to my knees. One of Gizmoduck's arm smacks me and I faceplant onto the ground, luckily dodging a missile that would've hit me. Uncle Donald bites down on the chain for the pen and frees himself, rushing over to me and helping me stand up by the wall, handing me my crutch while Huey just watches Gizmoduck.

Gizmoduck's suit says, "Hey, it sounds like your processor core is overloading. Would you like to vent excess energy?"

Gizmoduck exclaims, "Yes, do that thing! That sounds helpful!"

The suit says enthusiastically, "Great! Initiating self-detonation."

Gizmoduck says, "What? No, stop! Reboot! Cancel!"

He stops spinning as the suit says, "Okay, canceling and extracating."

His helmet gains a mini helicopter propeller at the top and he starts flying up to the hole in the ceiling, Gizmoduck exclaiming quickly, "I guess this is happening now, bye!"

Huey says in awe, "Wow!"

The bank manager lady runs out of the vault and rolls around on the ground to put out the fire on her clothes, yelling, "The money's on fire! All the money's on fire!"

A few minutes later, the news team showed up while the fires were still being put out, and a news announcer guy says, "Breaking News with Roxanne Featherly."

Roxanne says, Huey and I standing next to her, "We're live at Duckburg National Bank, where a robotic menace tore up the building, leaving patrons traumatized." She turns to Huey first, saying, "You were there, young man. Could you see the pure evil in his cold, robotic eyes?"

Huey responds, confused, "What? He was wearing a visor."

Roxanne says, "I see. So what's he trying to hide?"

I say, "Nothing. He's just a good-hearted guy who stopped the Beagle Boys from robbing the bank. Yes, his methods may have been unorthodox and he caused tons of damage, but it's not his fault the suit went haywire."

Roxanne says, "Hm. So you're saying it would've been better to let the Beagle Boys rob the bank than let him destroy it?"

I ask, "What? No! You're twisting my words!"

Huey adds, "He saved us! He was smart, and noble, and made of metal. Everything I've always wanted to be, almost! Where did he come from? Will I see him again? Will he sign this commemorative dollar bill?"

He holds up a dollar bill that's still on fire, and Uncle Donald frantically yanks it out of his hand, tossing it to the concrete sidewalk and using a fire extinguisher on it.

Roxanne says, "Be sure to vote in our online poll. Robo-crook; incompetently dangerous, or dangerously incompetent?"

Huey exclaims, "Neither! He's a hero!"

I add, "And you're just a lame clout-chaser, like Mark Beaks!"

Roxanne's beak tightens in frustration, and she says to the camera, "This has been Roxanne Featherly." She then whispers to her cameraman, "And cut."

Not long after the camera crew and Roxanne left, Huey found some tread marks inside the bank and searches online for something to match it, finding a type of tire patented by Gyro Gearloose. Uncle Donald reluctantly drops us off at the Bin, and Huey and I almost immediately find Gyro.

He has his hand in the bottom of the soda machine, angrily saying, "Don't you start with me today!"

Huey asks, "Dr. Gearloose?"

Gyro lazily greets, "Some kid."

I say, "Two actually. You should remember me; we met when your invention went haywire in the Bin."

Gyro grumbles, "You're going to have to be more specific, orange girl."

I say, "Lil' Bulb nearly sucked up Uncle Scrooge's dime a couple months ago."

Gyro rolls his eyes, obviously lying as he says, "Not ringing a bell. I don't remember anything about a dime."

I growl under my breath, and Huey says, "Um, can we get this conversion back on track?"

I sigh, muttering, "Fine. Continue."

Huey clears his throat, saying tos a Junior Woodchuck Robotics Badge candidate, I was able to trace the wheel tread of the bank robbery to one of your patents."

Gyro looks nervous as he looks around frantically as he asks, "Uh wait, bababababa bah! What bank robbery!"

I show him recordings of Gizmoduck on Huey's tablet and ask, "Do you really not watch the news? Gizmoduck's been all over TV and the Internet the last couple hours."

Gyro raises his eyebrow, asking, "Who?"

Huey adds, "The armored avenger who stopped the bank robbery? You created a superhero for Duckburg, didn't you? I had some ideas that could-"

Gyro gasps, interrupting Huey as he angrily asks, "I did what?! Agh, that subhuman, interning, piece of- Gah!"

I flinch as he punches the soda machine, his soda finally exiting and opening on it own, spilling all over the ground.

He snatches Huey's tablet out of my hands and types something into it to track the suit, grumbling lowly, "I'll show him not to meddle with my darlings."

Huey and I follow him as he stalks around town, face buried close to the tablet.

After a while of wandering he stops, saying, "He's somewhere close by. But, where?"

We suddenly see Gizmoduck extend his abdomen about a mile up, exclaiming, "Hip flexor extendo-abs!"

Gyro and Huey say the same thing in different tones of voice, Gyro angry and Huey excited, "Oh my gosh, it's him!"

Gizmoduck nervously says, "Oh, uh, hi Dr. Gearloose."

Gyro demands, "Get down here this instant! The extendo-abs are for putting boxes on high shelves, not for... whatever it is you're doing!"

Huey starts climbing up Gizmoduck, saying, "Hey, remember me? Huey, from the bank? You saved me and my sister! I cherished it! I have some questions about your gear, possibly some upgrades!"

Gyro exclaims, "You're going to overload the core processor and kill us all!"

Gizmoduck says, "Oh, I'd say that's overkill."

The suit opens it's chest and makes him arch his back, saying, "Initiating overkill."

Gizmoduck frustratedly exclaims, "Oh sure, that couldn't be a pie?!"

He takes off into the sky after the missile that's moving toward a helicopter, Huey hanging onto his suit for a short while before the extendo-abs return to normal, Huey landing on a roof. I make my way to the building Huey landed on, and he climbs down the fire escape toward me. He and I go home for the night, and I ice my sore knee finally, falling asleep watching cartoons on the living room couch with Dewey.

I wake up the next morning and check Chatter and find the internet buzzing about Gizmoduck, but this time in a more positive light. He's apparently joined Waddle Tech last night and is now 'helping' people with the new Hero On Demand app as Waddleduck. I can't believe Fenton would do that to himself! I can't believe anyone would work for Mark Beaks willingly.

Huey said he tried talking to Gizmoduck again last night, but he was being really dismissive of him, and now that he's found out about the app, he's lost all faith in Fenton's alter ego. Even Louie is abusing the app for snacks and to get the TV remote for him while I'm right next to him on the couch. I raise my eyebrow at 'Waddleduck', trying to convey my frustration at him selling out, but he just avoids looking at me and leaves as quickly as he can.

After a couple days of the app, Huey starts a protest outside the Waddle Tech Headquarters, and I join him to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid.

He chants, "Hey, hey! Ho, ho! Waddleduck has got to go! Hey, hey! Ho, ho! Waddleduck has got to go!"

Fenton is dragged out of the building by guards, not in his armor, and shouts, "Listen to me, Beaks has no idea what he's doing! He'll kill us all!"

His mom, Officer Cabrera, asks, "Pollito?"

Fenton is still being dragged further from the building while still voicing his protests as Beaks announces through the speakers as he appears in the Waddleduck armor, "Welcome to Waddle, and I am Waddleduck! Or should I say, Mark Beaks! Your favorite billionaire is now your favorite superhero, y'all!"

I shout, "Nobody likes you anymore, Beaks! Have you seen all these protestors? You're just a fraud, not a hero!

Beaks asks, "Say what now?"

Huey adds to what I said, "I mean, how could you be him? You were rescued by Gizmoduck, and did you really think we wouldn't notice your whole faces are different?!"

Roxanne Featherly shoves past Huey and I and almost makes me fall, and I growl at her, shaking my crutch at her before Huey holds me back.

She asks Beaks, "So you'll be responding personally to all help requests?"

Beaks responds calmly, "Eh, for the sake of efficiency, I'm placing myself in charge of who gets saved and who doesn't, for I am Waddleduck!"

Fenton shouts, holding onto a lamp post for dear life as the guards tug at his legs, "Beaks, stop! Somebody stop him!"

Beaks starts doing his signature finger guns, but the suit turns them into laser blasts as he says, "Pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew!"

He chuckles, then lifts the visor, a shocked expression on his face before he starts spinning around and shooting lasers uncontrollably like Gizmoduck did yesterday at the bank, and most people run away, the guards yanking at Fenton letting him go and also running.

The suit says, "Bulby here. Looks like there is a core overload."

Beaks shouts, "Get it off of me! Get it off of me!"

The suit asks, "Would you like to vent excess energy with self-detonation?"

Beaks annoyedly says, "Yes, yes, yes, whatever!"

The suit says enthusiastically, "Great! Initiating self-detonation."

Beaks asks, "What?!"

Fenton shouts, "Cancel the order! It'll explode!"

Beaks exclaims, "Too panicked to process! Save me, amigo!"

Of course Beaks uses micro-aggressions. Why doesn't that surprise me?

A large billboard breaks off it's beams from the lasers awakening them, coming right toward me, but I wouldn't be able to move quick enough to get out of the way. Huey and Officer Cabrera runs toward me and shove me out of the way, but they just end up getting themselves into danger.

Fenton says while running toward us, "I'm not your amigo. I'm not a mascot, or an intern, or a fancy tool." Just before the billboard could land on my brother or his mom, he shouts, "Blathering blatherskite!"

I close my eyes to not have to watch anyone die in front of me, but I peek one open when I don't hear any screams or a thud, seeing Fenton in the Gizmoduck armor holding the billboard in the air.

He says triumphantly, "I am Gizmoduck!"

He tosses the billboard away, and Huey and Officer Cabrera just stare at him in awe before Huey jumps up excitedly, shouting, "Haha! Faith restored!"

The suit says, "Heads up. Venting excess energy with processor core detonation."

I mutter, "Why did Gyro add that as a feature?"

Huey exclaims, "Just rip out the processor core!"

Gizmoduck says frantically, "I can't; it'll explode! I need the suit to get rid of the processor, but the suit won't run with the processor!"

Huey climbs onto his shoulder, saying, "You don't need it!"

Gizmoduck asks, "Where am I going to find a complex system that can handle many things at once?"

Huey knocks on the helmet, saying, "Right here. Your brain is the perfect processor! It's like I've been trying to tell you! You can do more."

Gizmoduck says, "You're right! You've been right!"

Huey starts messing around with the wires on the back of the suit helmet, and Fenton convulses a few times and Huey gets shocked, launching off of the suit and into Officer Cabrera's arms. Fenton's head slumps over for a moment and a bit of drool drips out of his mouth before he snaps awake and the processor core pops out of the suit into his hands.

He says, "It's all me. I'm in control!'

The suit, Bulby, says, "Core meltdown in 10, 9, 8..."

Gizmoduck exclaims, "Oh no, I'm in control! Scatter! This thing is gonna blow!"

He takes to the skies, flying over the ocean as fast and far as he can before exploding, his mother falling to her knees and staring at where he just was in the sky. Hours later, the camera crew finally arrive after the police fail to find Gizmoduck or any sign of him, and Officer Cabrera is still staring blankly out at the ocean, a blanket that another officer offered her draped over her shoulders.

Huey grabs Roxanne's microphone, saying to the camera, "Tonight, we watched someone make the ultimate sacrifice for this city. Despite the fact that we doubted him, he was our hero."

Roxanne exclaims, "Hey! That- Get away from my camera!"

They start fighting over the microphone, and I notice someone weakly climbing onto the dock.

I ask, "Is that... Fenton?"

Officer Cabrera's eyes widen and she finally stands up, helping him to the ambulance. They drive off to the hospital, and Roxanne continues her broadcast, Huey glaring at her. The two of us decide to go home and hope for the best, and Chatter is buzzing the next day with news that Waddleduck is no more, and Gizmoduck is back, now partnered up with Uncle Scrooge to actually save lives once again. Good for him.

[chronal-anomaly]

@spllledwlne asked:

‘ i thought you’d have more fight in you. ’ ( gabriel ) || Injury (selectively accepting)

Lena was absolutely not a woman to back down from a fight. Especially, of course, one that was presented to her competitive side, a real life fight against Gabriel Reyes. Sure, he was older, taller, stronger, not to mention an enhanced super soldier with almost a guaranteed victory over the plucky ex-pilot.

And yet, she still agreed to the match.

Lena had run herself ragged, blinking in and out and back in again, to the lack of a timeline that gave her the freedom to move and fight around Gabe unlike anyone he's really fought before. One second Lena existed, and the next, she was gone, landing behind him only for the cycle to continue.

Still, even the quick movements were no match for Gabe, who eventually pinned her with a well-planned grapple out of her Recall. It was there he held her, pinned against the mats.

"Not ready t' give up just yet!" The accelerator was already taxed, rejecting the idea of another dip into the expansive time, but that didn't stop Lena from struggling against his hold. "Gimme one more good shot!"

[ilovetragedies]

The amount of Supercorp kissing fanart is making me blush 😳

[lena-in-a-red-dress]

@occidentaltourist & @cyclone-rachel your nanite-Jack post made me think of a potential episode idea where it starts off with Lena sensing someone watching her in her daily life.... in her office, getting coffee, in her car, what have you.

She's suspicious af and decides to deal with it in-house because she's still split from the Superfriends at this point, and obvs has trust issues.

But when she fails and is abducted anyway, Supergirl steps in. Not that Kara's particularly successful, though. Not until a cloud of nanites comes swarming into the DEO, panicking all but Brainy, who listens intently.

"Interesting," he says after a moment, turning to the others. "The nanites have been watching Miss Luthor for some time. I will educate them on the human concept of privacy later, but for now they have data they believe will help locate Lena."

Their data does in fact help identify who took Lena and why, but not where she might be. The nanites disperse to scour the city for her, and the rest of the Superfriends just stare at Brainy.

"That's.... weird, Brainy," Alex says.

Brainy agrees. "It is peculiar, given the current level of AI sentience in this era. However I believed it best to use the resources at our disposal, however they arise. I believe this era has a saying about gifted horses that would apply to this scenario?"

Meanwhile, in an abandoned warehouse somewhere in the city, Lena sits bound to a chair for hours, struggling to find a way to either get these people what they want or to escape. It ends up being the latter, in the form of nanites drifting in through the air vents and slowly eating away at the zipties binding her.

She's almost escaped when guards come bursting in, having seen her release on the security feed. Lena barely has time to flinch before the nanites slam into the guards, incapacitating them in moments while a portion remains behind to shield Lena from any wayward bullets.

When Lena is the only one left standing, the swarm reintegrates into a single mass. With sharp eyes Lena regards the undulating cloud of nanites hovering nearby, watching her.

As she stares, they slowly compress, shaping into the vague yet recognizable silhouette of a human. Slowly, things start to piece together in her mind.

The odd behavior of the nanites. The eerily familiar stance of the silhouette. The last time she saw those nanites in the shape of a man.

"Jack?"

The cloud nods, and somehow she recognizes a smile in the shifting glint of the metal nanites. Relief and regret pour into her at once, pulling tears to her eyes.

"You were the one watching me, weren't you?"

It nods again, and she almost laughs. She does smile, even though she knows it's not him. Not really.

"I've missed you."

The silhouette steps towards her. Lena doesn't flinch, not even when a portion of the cloud splits and pulls away from the mass, extending a facsimile of an arm. Lena reaches out, and lets her fingers submerge into the cloud. It's not the warm, tangible contact she wishes for, and yet the peculiar itch of nanites moving against her skin fills her with comfort all the same.

"I'm sorry," she says. "I'm sorry I couldn't save you, Jack."

The swarm around her hand constricts, and it almost feels like a true touch.

"Thank you for saving me."
