I feel like we need to talk more about certain *moments* from the game...

He can kill me, revive me, then kill me again and I would THANK HIM

Fic idea: A world where Clark and Bruce both get put under Black Mercy’s spell and see their alternate “ideal” dream realities. These realities are identical, though they don’t realize that — a world where they finally give into the pining and realize the other cares about them just as much.

They get married, raise kids, and build the League. Years pass in domestic bliss.

Cut to them waking up. Both are devastated that their marriage/lives weren’t real and resign themselves to a miserable world with a partner who doesn’t remember them.

They both think the other saw something else — Clark mumbles something about Lois and Bruce lies that he saw his parents alive again (they were in his dream, but that wasn’t the focus? hmm)

But. As they try moving on from the years-in-a-second bliss they shared, odd moments keep cropping up.

Bruce says something Clark only ever heard in the dream world. They know things about each other they shouldn’t. Clark slips up and reaches for Bruce’s body in a way that’s too achingly familiar. They’re both choked with denial and grief.

Cue the most aggravating dual pining ever.

Look, when the thirst calls, you just have to draw :P ANYWAY I kind of gasped when I saw MAWS Brainiac just strutting with this outfit in My Adventures with Superman and ran to my drawing tablet.

regulus catching peter and sending his body to the rest of the marauders with the note “caught a rat. RAB.” is honestly one of the sexiest things i’ve ever read…

regulus black the man that you are…

I love everything about the MAWS version of Black Mercy and Brainiac’s gaslighting. Altering Clark’s memories to have Lois say what he most feared she would say in his most vulnerable moments, and undermining his conviction that they’re false by showing him completely real memories that provoke the same feelings of rejection, heartbreak and betrayal? Then letting him believe that he wins and there’s no longer a threat to resist? And pacifying him with a perfect Kryptonian life as an innocent child with a whole, happy family? It’s all so well done and genuinely terrifying.

The original Black Mercy is a vaguely sentient parasitic plant that constructs its victim’s dream world on its own. The villain who trapped Clark with it in the comics didn’t even know what he was seeing. But I think Brainiac having direct control is even more effective with how masterful and insidious his manipulation is. Of course he makes Clark identify only as Kal-El. That’s the one part of him Brainiac deems worth existing in any capacity, even unseen, imaginary and entirely inside the mind. The Earthling Clark Kent he considers inferior, the defender Superman is a stubborn enemy; but the last time Clark was just Kal-El, he was a baby, a blank slate… a helpless blank slate. Exactly like Brainiac found Kara. And like Kara did until now, Kal-El belongs to Brainiac.

no wonder Nora never took her jacket off; RNJR would have never gotten anything done.

i like to think this happens in v4 because Ruby makes an offhand comment about Nora and Jaune not having guns as part of their kits. and Nora whips off her jacket and cries "guns? oh i've got guns! 😏" cue Jaune and Ren having a crisis. Ren is, to quote a friend, "experiencing emotions previously unknown, possibly shrimp ones".

redraw of this meme, because i wanted to draw best girl flexing and being admired, as she deserves.

i don't have a twitter, so if you're inclined to share, please link back to this post rather than reposting it, thank you :')
