is there a word for something that’s so wildly and obviously offensive that it circles back around to just be camp?
#was talking with the husband about the pink kryptonite that makes superman gay#for reference#i suppose it’s partly that it has to have become a bit toothless in the obviousness of the offense#like it’s become a parody of itself

been slowing down a bit on my collecting recently (I no longer work at the thrift store + school has been keeping me from going out webkinz hunting) but my friend got me this lovely fellow !!! He's the Ribbon Iguana, released in 2014, and I love him. Unfortunately his previous owner cut his tush tag off but that doesn't make him any less special <3
His name is Kryptonite :3
#sorry for the clowns in the background yall theyre in the same corner i keep my kinz#his name is a reference to the pink kryptonite from hit supergirl comic volume 79 many happy returns released in 2003 in which the pink#kryptonite seemed to make the kryptonians (so like superman and supergirl) gay. a distasteful satire piece but also funny as shit#bartsbabes

Love how literally everything Gerard Way has ever done has had some level of queerness in it somewhere, be it their music or their comics. Like this guy literally said "I am going to throw gay people and gender-based fuckery at you and y'all are gonna fucking LIKE IT." Even back in the days of Bullets and Revenge (when, to give context to my fellow zoomers, homophobia and commodification of queerness was so fucking rampant that the Superman issue with Pink Kryptonite was released in 2003), this guy was out there, screaming about sucking dick and actively kissing his homies on stage as a specific political statement.
And then later on he goes off and actually does comics, one based off Danger Days, and yeah the villain from the music videos just. Has a male love interest. Whose death causes him to finally rebel against the fascistic corporation that actively works to destroy otherness. And then Doom Patrol (which btw has always had queer subtext, severely underrated superhero line imo) and Umbrella Academy. I'm not sure what else I can say on that.
They've also been loud and proud about their own queerness, even if he doesn't use labels. Like this is not an ally thing my dudes this is a queer person making queer content for queer people, and was literally doing it before it was cool. Like shit dude. That's fucking praxis.
And then. When he started performing with their buddies again. In the years of our lord 2022 and 2023. In the middle of a worldwide effort to erase trans people from existence. At a time where people could reasonably be like "yea he's campy but he's still just a cis band dude." This bitch. Gets on stage. In not just any dresses. But dresses in references to women who are both victims of great tragedy and pain but are also icons of sociopolitical power. And never ONCE letting up on ANYTHING. Sometimes it's a dress, sometimes it's a weird Party City thing, sometimes it's literally Piss and Vinegar shirts. But never once does the genderfuckery stop.
"In the face of extermination, say fuck you."
The respect I have for this guy is off the fucking charts, and the inspiration I feel in seeing this shit happen is other-fuckin-worldly.
#gerard way#mcr#my chemical romance#doom patrol#umbrella academy#btw sorry to my followers ik this is outta left field but like. i have a new hyperfixation ok.

Winchester - (Supernatural / Smallville Crossover AU) - Chapter 3
They’ve gotten quite accustomed to the fact that you always have your nose in a book.
Sitting in the Talon with Clark and his friends, you flip another page as they converse back and forth.
“Are you kidding me, Jaws was awesome!” Pete argues.
“Come on, I mean I was gullible enough as a child, but sharks aren’t as man eating as the stories portray. They just assume that we’re seals.” Chloe inputs.
“I’ll remember that the next time I hear about a shark attack.” Pete snarks. Lana and Clark are laughing. Lex is smiling.
They’ve been comparing movies for a while now.
“What about you (Y/N), what’s your favorite movie?”
“Beauty and the Beast.” You reply before you even realize.
For a moment your eyes are still running over sentences, that’s until you process the quiet. Looking up, all eyes are trained on you. Clark looks a bit surprised and Lana as well as Chloe look about ready to gush. Your cheeks flush.
“I-I mean Die Hard. I-I just love all those explosions.” You cover, you know they don’t believe a word, you just dive back into your book in hopes that the topic will change.
Another hour or so of movie references and recommendations and the group is dispersing. Clark has offered to give you a ride back which you accept happily. Jumping into the truck, you buckle up as Clark pulls out down the street.
“So Beauty and the Beast huh?”
“I-I was just joking! I’m hardcore n-not some princess! I slay monsters!!”
You’re trying really hard to defend it, but Clark suddenly becomes aware of some of your more delicate traits. Like the fact that your laptop has a pretty little floral casing, or some of your clothes are an assortment of pink or purple.
Maybe it’s the creative jewelry that you tend to wear. You do have a tough exterior for obvious reasons, but there are more feminine sides that you apparently don’t want others to see. It might have something to do with the fact that you grew up with two brothers. It might just be ingrained into you.
He knows one thing, he’d like to get closer, learn more.
“I was gonna set up my projector in the loft, do you want to come over to watch a movie?”
“I guess it depends on the movie.” You mutter.
He smiles to himself.
“I’ll make sure to get something that you like.”
You hum, still a bit skeptical, but you agree.
“Alright then, make sure you have popcorn, and gummy bears.”
“I’ll be sure to grab some.”
You look very content and he makes a mental note not to forget anything.
After you’ve returned to your place and secured your books and computer, you relax. Sam and Dean haven’t called with any tragic news, so you can guess that everything is going smoothly.
Moving to the kitchen, you intend to make yourself a snack, but the familiar flapping of wings catches your attention. You peek into the living room, not very surprised. Gabriel is seated on your couch with a bag of gummies in his lap and your remote in his hand. He leans back when he spots you.
“Hey squirt.”
You giggle, racing over and dropping on the couch next to him.
“Gabriel I missed you!” You hug him and he laughs, ruffling your hair.
“Me too, Castiel was a pain in the ass. He says I need to stop messing with the two stooges.” You playfully hit his arm.
“Hey, give them some slack.”
“Fine, fine.”
You both relax on the couch.
“So what have you been up to, bubble gum? Bust any monsters lately?”
“Nope, but I did find an alien?”
“An alien, nice. Korugarians, Coluans, Cathexis or Kryptonian?”
“Hmm, actually I’m not sure. I never even asked. I’ll be sure to do that next time.”
There has been frequent mention of Kryptonite, so it’s possible that he’s Kryptonian.
“Sounds like you’re having fun.”
“Lots of fun. I’m gonna watch a movie tonight.”
“Oooo, with who?”
“Just a guy I know.”
Gabriel smirks and your cheeks get red.
“N-Not like that we’re just friends!!”
“Whatever you say.” He’s wiggling his brows and you huff, grabbing the pack of gummies from his lap as you take off running.
“Hey!! Those are mine!!”
Gabriel’s visits are definitely entertaining to say the least.
A few more hours of messing around with him and you’re heading over to Clark’s place. Gabriel had been nice enough to give you a ride. Now standing outside of the barn you wave at him.
“Thanks Gabriel.”
He salutes.
“Anytime. Now don’t you go staying out late young lady, you have a curfew.”
You laugh and he winks, disappearing.
Sliding your hands into your pocket, you head to the loft. As you walk into the barn you call for Clark. He leans over the railing.
“You made it.”
“Sure did.” You hoof it up the stairs, watching his little set up.
“I have to admit this is cool. It must be nice to have all this space.”
Clark nods.
“It comes in handy.”
He gestures to the couch, and you take notice of the blankets and cushions as well as the snacks. You immediately head for the sweets, not that he’s surprised. Once you make yourself comfortable, Clark follows, his remote in hand as he plays the movie. You’re already digging into your snack. When you see the title you’re blushing again.
“Beauty and the Beast..”
He nods.
“I was feeling a bit nostalgic, figured I’d brush up.”
It’s a poorly constructed lie. You pout and he smiles.
“Let’s enjoy the movie.”
You don’t have the nerve to complain. The second it starts you’re already glued in. The introduction of characters feels like the very first time that you saw it. The melodies and interactions are just as beautiful as ever. You’ll never get tired of it, their voices, that love story.
Clark knows he should be paying attention to the film rather than shameless gawking at all your cute expressions but he can’t help himself. When he first met you, you were headstrong, put together. Almost fearless. He supposed he just assumed that you had no interest in anything cute or romantic. But he was wrong. It’s clear that he has a lot to learn.
It takes him a moment to realize the movie is over. You look so content and he can’t help but ask.
“Why do you love this movie so much?”
Your expression changes to something more thoughtful, and a bit shy.
“I can’t fool you, can I?”
“Nope.”
You smile.
“I just really like her character. She’s a bookworm too.”
Clark smiles at the comparison.
For a while you wear such a light expression, but then your eyes seem to fall.
“The story of her falling for a beast, I guess in a way I’ve always wanted it to be possible. Having someone love you like that despite knowing the scariest sides of you. Unconditional love like that has always been sort of out of my reach.”
You grip at the covers.
“I’m a bit of a hopeless romantic.” You mumble.
Love given your job description has always been somewhat impossible. People who got close usually never lived long enough. Surrounded by the things you were as a child, well, it didn’t exactly set a foundation for lasting relationships. This is the longest you’ve been in one place with friends and it hasn’t imploded in your face.
At least not yet.
You’re still a bit anxious that it might happen.
Clark’s touch pulls your focus. His hand is gentling covering yours and you look up.
“We both can relate to that.”
You smile when you realize what he’s referring to. You can’t help but feel grateful.
“Thanks for this Clark.”
He nods.
“Anytime.”

2) Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan
Cause I might as well just make this a Chappell Roan post but like her Music hits okay-
3) Good Luck, Babe - Chappell Roan

I believe Jon Kent's boyfriend has pink hair as a reference to pink kryptonite and nothing could convince me otherwise.

🍋🥦🍇 for lavina?
🍋- what is their kryptonite/greatest weakness?
Women. A specific pink haired one at that.
🥦 - what do they hate about humanity?
Lavinia vibes too much too really have something to hate about humanity as a whole. Specific people sure, she already does that, but as a whole not really.
🍇 - what is their circle of people look like? What Dynamic would they be called?
I mean their "circle" is just the regular group of characters from Deso, I don't know how much bigger it gets yet (if it does) but I'm referring to the group of Ava, Scarlett, Connor, Garrett and Emily.
I really don't know how to describe their dynamic as a group tbh, as of where I'm at in Deso's story.
#individual dynamics with Lavinia i can do right now but not the group as a whole because I've seen a whole one scene with all of them there#ty for the ask!#oc: lavinia❤️#pokemon desolation

☆☆☆ Timkon Recs, Over 10k Edition☆☆☆
done in order of word count, ascending.
Oh, Red / Burning Red by thebodydies (E, complete, 10.1k) the lengths one must go to in order to top their (half-)alien boyfriend. it has smut, character studying, exploration of worldbuilding. what more could you want. Sugar Daddy, Bring Me Home by thebodydies (E, complete, 12.9k) 10/10 smut holy shit. what making one too many sugar daddy jokes about u & ur bff does to a motherfucker…… (the sugar daddy in question is ofc tim) suddenly you're ripped into being alive by lucifersfavouritechild (T, complete, 15.1k) incredible timkon clone baby au. kon gets to be a househusband. also he gets the funniest dialogue, which is just canon accurate tbh. think pink by suzukiblu (E, incomplete, 16.5k) bdsm ft sub!kon, timbernkon & weird dc lore (aka pink kryptonite aka the rock that turned superman gay that one time). i need this to update so badly. not even for the porn (even though, very hot). i just need more of the kon character study. also just an interesting exploration of sexuality. what *are* the implications of having access to a stone that scientifically is confirmed to change your sexuality? though i also have a theory that the kon in this fic is bi pre-kryptonite and is just using the kryptonite as a subconscious excuse. but thats just a theory. A GAME THEORY— call me cute and feed me sugar by suzukiblu (T, incomplete, 55k) 10/10 identity porn (in the sfw sense of the term). tim deals with the ethically dubious implications of kon's early life by becoming his sugar daddy. ft the peak comedy of horny teenagers being horny. what are you doing calling another sixteen year old baby/daddy lmao. buy back the secret by sundiscus (T, incomplete, 91k) more 10/10 identity porn (again, in the sfw sense). peak mutual pining (aka idiots to lovers). i dont think i can say anything else without spoiling it so just trust me. its an incredible read. straight on 'til morning by merils (M, complete, 102.3k) the 100k fic i read in a day. what happens when u treat the superboy’s 1994 comics seriously, lean into the peter pan intertextual references & make it queer. i mean, canon superboy already has peter pan intertextual references. but like leaning into it more. both tim & kon are also trans as fuck.
i keep accidently reading timkon fics that are over 10k. like i just forget to check the word count & then 5 hours are gone & i scroll back to the top and the 90k is sitting there, waiting, staring me in the face. the timkon fic writers are putting something in these fics and i'm pretty sure its drugs
#timkon#timkon fic recs#fic recs#i have a document where im slowly amassing a resource of timkon fics#to be employed as propaganda to try & get my friend into the ship#so this a selection from that#still havent dived too deep into the ao3 tag so this is biased towards the bigger fics#also making this was a good reminder that i need to go back & re-read+comment on some of them

Ahem, not close to being an og on tumblr or DC so I may have some stupid points and/or may being doing this friggin wrong and I’m okay with that. Fairly certain I will be proven wrong one way or another, but I’m tryin’.
Now..
Got into DC not too long ago. This is what I have learnt so far (these are mainly Batman based because I’m yet to care about anyone else nearly as much as I care about Bats and I’m mainly focusing on the stuff I’ve encountered, not toxicity [because I haven’t encountered that yet]):
- Batman is awesome but his canon constantly clashes. It’s nicer for HCs but is also a pain when a bunch of people focus on one part.
- still very shocking but… people tend to be fairly okay when someone doesn’t read the comics or most of the comics, as long as they are at least familiar with references to the comics.
- the live-action movies are both really good and highly flawed all at once.
- there is a horrific amount of crossovers with Miraculous and Danny Phantom. Like fanfics made yesterday have these crossovers.
- You like a ship? Perfect! Here’s plenty of content in relation to that!
- my method from finding Transformers fanfics does not work.
- Not enough JL depress.
- still yet to see anyone mention how funny it is that parents allow their children to engage with majority of DC and JL content when they really shouldn’t.
-Batman can never be apart of young children content. Nothing targeted to someone below the age of 7 should be allowed to engage with Batman content. Considering how he became Batman, his morals, his motivations, his goals.
- majority agree that a good version of Batman is when cares about people and actually is a very good person but will never see himself as a good person, he’s not scary. He’s not mean. He actually cares about people. He’s just a damaged person.
- Autism and ADHD characters are canon and I love browsing all the proof that it’s canon.
- Alfred is best. (Also raised my standards for the British only for it to be destroyed by my stupid uncle.)
- want to ignore canon? M’kay!
- not enough ‘Bruce cut himself off from people for years, but did solely interact with Alfred, gradually he started mimicking Alfred’s accent, so when he finally interacts with people again he has a British accent.’ Come on.
- if you search up any negative, but angsty, trait and ‘Bruce Wayne’ on tumblr you’re going to get a whole bunch of content that’s either Bruce x reader or is batbros focused rather than Bruce focused.
- everything is either from 5 years ago or yesterday.
- not enough owl man and Batman interacting content. Where’s the fanfics where Owlman tries to join the JLA and the only one to question it is Bruce! Initially Owlman’s there to undermine Batman and drive him insane, but gradually their relationship develops and the original plan goes out the window in the wake of ‘protective brother’ mode?? It’s not even close to canon, but at this rate it doesn’t matter.
- fight scenes are cool, but do you know what’s cooler? Characters displaying proper friendships [while fighting]
- overworked and insomniac characters are central in fanfics when you least expect it, but if you ACTUALLY SEARCH IT UP YOU GET NOTHING!
Edit: completely forgot to mention
- still waiting for someone to mention that although Battison (I think [yet to watch it]) addresses the black makeup from around the eyes of Batman when he’s in the cowl, does it really matter? Because it’s not even supposed to be there because Batman’s eyes are supposed to be covered by the lenses built into the cowl.
- disappointed by the lack of high-heels in more modern content. They run around in heels in Justice League and Justice League Unlimited and that’s how high my standards are. No heels? No point.
- pink kryptonite hehe
And finally
- learning big words and concepts thanks to everything. Honestly didn’t know what ABA was, or that it’s called a cowl!
#let’s pretend that my points are valid#honestly having a nice time here#bruce wayne#batfam#notes#actually surprised#only encounter stupid arguments when someone’s disputing it#I have PowerPoints ready incase I need to fight why I like Batman#it raised my standards#autistic Bruce wayne for life

Justice League
They tell you they love you
Bruce Wayne
“Bruce please hurry up the guests are due to arrive any minute!” Y/N called securing her earring. Scurrying down the hallway the y/h/c woman almost ran into Bruce's familiar assistant. “Don’t worry Alfred, I can handle it.” Y/N reassured the older man who looked like he was about to have kittens time keeping had never been one of Bruce's strong suits. Storming into their shared bedroom Y/N tutted her y/e/c orbs falling on the figure of the famous Bruce Wayne fighting with an unmade bow tie. “Take your time Bruce it’s not like we’ve been planning this gala for months.” Y/N smiled teasingly. Huffing the male smacked the loose strip of fabric “Do I even need this?” Nodding the female bit her red painted lips her y/s/c hands making fast work of the offending item. “There. Wasn’t that hard was it?” Y/N asked rhetorically before taking her leave. “You know I love you right?” Bruce called smirking at the large oak door. Popping her head around the doorway Y/N laughed “I know. Now hurry up I believe some people are waiting for Mr. Wayne to make a grand entrance.”
Arthur Curry
“Here you go Tom.” Y/N smiled softly, passing the older man a mug of coffee. The early morning sun causing a warm glow to fill the kitchen. “It’s been a while since I’ve had a girl make me breakfast in such a fancy getup.” Tom teased referring to the well loved flannel that currently hung off the girl. Sighing playfully Y/N flipped a pancake “I see where Arthur got his smooth talking from.” Heavy footsteps broke the pair from their conversation “Morning sleepy head” Y/N greeted placing a plate and some cutlery at the tall man's designated seat. “Rough night?” Thomas Curry interrogated his son knowing Arthur had spent the night doing what he did best saving the people the ocean nearly claimed. Scowling at his father Arthur sat down stuffing his face with the homemade food. Truth be told recently the Curry family had been eating like kings rather than living off microwave meals and Y/N was to thank for that. “I’ll leave you kids to it.” Thomas nodded awkwardly heading to the pier like he did every morning. “You shouldn't be so mean to him.” Y/N frowned, clearing the recently evacuated seat scolding the tan man. Smiling Arthur attempted to pull out the puppy dog eyes knowing it was one of the girl's weaknesses. “Oh no don’t try and play innocent with me!” Y/N giggled, slapping away his hands that where currently trying to grab her waist. Squealing the y/h/c woman lost the fight rolling her y/e/c orbs as Arthur wrapped his arms around her. “You love me though right?” Arthur whispered in her ear. Shrugging Y/N debated aloud teasing the male “I don’t know do I?”. Silence fell over the pair nothing but the sound of the ocean waves filling the lighthouse. “Well I certainly love you.” Arthur admitted cringing at the soppy emotion that currently plagued him.
Clark Kent
“I love you” Clark mumbled the dark battlefield ruining the moment but it was now or never. Laughing awkwardly Y/N held the weakened Krypton native her y/e/c eyes running over the makeshift war zone. “That’s sweet and all but maybe now’s not the best time for that.” The woman argued the rain beating down, making her y/h/c darker. “No Y/N you don’t understand I love you.” This time his tone urgent breaking the female's attention from a giant currently trying to end the world in an attempt to kill Superman. Confused Y/N whipped her head to the fellow superhero her face falling when she caught his gaze on the glowing green spear. “No Clark you can’t!!” Stumbling to his feet the man winced as he picked up the kryptonite tipped weapon. “I have too, it's my duty.” Clark insisted moving to face the girl who now had tears streaming down her face but he didn't mention it. Y/N could kick ass alien or not. “What about your duty to me?” Y/N questioned her y/s/c hand clutching at his blue suit. Shaking his head Clark saw a cloud of green filling the sky if there was anytime to act it was now. Pulling away Clark flew off trying to block out the girl's screams.
Barry Allen
Barry Allen may live life in the fast lane but there was nothing he enjoyed for then staying up late playing video games with Y/N L/N. “THAT’S CHEATING!!” the y/h/c girl screech failing to serve out of the flailing limb Barry had sent as an attempted distraction. “What my leg was going numb?” the dark haired male started innocently a chuckle erupting from his plump lips. “You're such a loser Barry Allen.” Y/N mumbled taking a swig of her Pepsi before violently pressing the yellow Y to exchange her weapon and shoot an prowling enemy. “Maybe I'm an idiot who loves you.” Barry whispered a red tint filling his cheeks thank god the pair like to play in the dark to limit distractions. Pausing the game Y/N froze. “What?” the girl asked silently applauding herself that she didn’t stutter and make the room more awkward. “Huh? Nothing. I didn’t say anything.” Barry argued the pathetic excuse tumbling from his lips. Putting down her controller Y/N shook her head violently. “No! No you definitely said you loved me!” Shrugging the male muttered something to myself. “Okay… maybe I did.” Running a hand through his messy noir locks the teen frowned “But I can't help it. Your prefect. You like pizza and video games.” Turning to face the girl Barry held her hand shyly. “That and you’re not embarrassed to be seen with me!” Barry revealed. “I get it if you never want to see me again.” Barry hummed almost sinking into the sofa, the red blush now a dull pink that still burnt like the midsummer sun. “What? Barry no. Your sweet, I was just surprised.” Y/N insisted slowly inching her way closer to the dark introvert.
Diana Prince
Diana never thought she’d feel love again after Steve but the summer of 1977 surprised her. It was the Summer she met Y/N L/N, a girl more innocent than her 1945 self. “Diana tell you’ve at least heard this one?” Y/N asked bouncing on the balls of her feet something that should have been impossible in platforms but it was a quirk that the Amazonian had grown to love. Smiling the brunette shook her head flicking through some of the records in the boxes in front of her. Record hunting had become a weekend event for the pair; some of the stalls that lined the River Seine were complete treasure troves. Hanging her mouth open Y/N gasped her y/s/c hand hovering over her chest in mock disbelief. “Y/N I love you you’re going to catch flies!” Diana smirked her red nails running over the spines of vinyls. “Right that’s it we’re going home right now and I will force you to listen to the amazing masterpiece that is ABBA!!” Y/N squealed quickly palming off a euro to the poor startled man and running off the tan female in tow. Even when they were in public and people mistook them for best friends Diana loved when they reached their small apartment and could finally shut the world out and be what they truly were… Lovers.
Victor Stone
“Ah come on just tell her!” Barry yelled, currently bothering Victor like a bratty toddler just begging for attention. Scowling Victor looked up, his fingers paused hovering over the keyboard “Do you want to say that any louder!” Smirking Barry zoomed over to the fellow youngster “Just tell Y/N you loveeee her!” Barry teased in a sing-song tone noticing his friend's uncomfortable behaviour. “No Allen just leave it!” Victor growled his teeth gritted. Frowning at his friend's sudden change in volume Barry turned only to discover the reason Y/N Wayne. “Hi guys” the young girl smiled waving awkwardly honestly considering her father was a well known suave millionaire Y/N unfortunately didn't inherit her Father's confident nature. “Oh by the way Vic… your mic was on.” At that point Victor was glad he was mainly mechanical parts so the y/h/c girl couldn’t tell how much he’d be blushing and stuttering at that moment. “I like you too. Um do you want to go to the movies with me. They’re reshowing Hitchcock movies all month.” Brushing a strand of y/h/c locks an awkward silence filled the room. Well other than Barry muttering something about ‘I told you so’ or ‘Call me cupid.’

Kal’s environment
Which season is their favorite season? Summer
Have they ever been betrayed? How did it affect their ability to trust others? They’ve never been betrayed
What is always guaranteed to make them smile? Toilet humour
Do they get cold easily? Do they get overheated easily? He gets overheated very easily. Which is why his wardrobe consists entirely of tank tops and bike shorts

Where do they live? Do they like it there? The Palace. And yes
Is their bedroom messy? What about their bathroom? Kitchen? Living room? Jaime dibs’d the cleaning. He’s quite happy to live in a sty though.
How did their environment growing up affect their personality? He was created out of black kryptonite, pink kryptonite and a small sample of Clark’s blood. It ensured he was a moralless, hedonistic kryptonian with all of Clark’s skill set
How did the people in their environment growing up affect their personality? Jaime created him. She needed an intimidating protector with a familiar face. Refer to number eight.

How are they with children? Do they have any? Do they want any? He doesn’t mind children. He doesn’t treat them with kid gloves though. Which is why he’s liked. He’s got three. Alice, Henry and Timmy.
Would they rather have stability or comfort? Both
Do they prefer the indoors or outdoors? He doesn’t care really. As long as he can do what he wants he’s fine.
What weather is their favorite? Do they like storms? Sunny. But he likes a good summer storm.

i'm now referring to what made me realise i was bisexual as my pink kryptonite - yes, pink kryptonite, famously the one-off breed of kryptonite that turns kryptonians gay.
anyways, velma from the scooby doo movie is my pink kryptonite.

push to talk by @alexjosten [requested by @nikothespoonklepto]
see which other fics i’m reviewing this month! / my review request post!
this is a delightfully engaging fic based on the game firewatch that follows neil as he spends a summer as a fire lookout, isolated except for radio communication with andrew, a fire lookout in the adjacent sector of the park. this is such an intense, fun, beautiful, and humorous fic.
i remember enjoying this so much as it came out, eagerly awaiting each new chapter. you drew me in so easily and deeply that i watched a whole playthrough of this game. i can fully appreciate how well you were able to translate the plot, gameplay, interactions between characters, and the stunning visuals so so seamlessly and have it aftg so well.
some parts that stood out to me:
”dusk settles on the trees like clay powder, dusting the evergreens with a red tint” woah this is such a gorgeous way of starting off this fic.
”the moon extends her helping hand to guide him out into a clearing. here, neil can see. but also, he can be seen” i love these descriptions, and our introduction to neil.
”he ignores his sleeping bag and the strict instructions to camp at nightfall and continue during the day” ah yes, Neil I Do What I Want Josten strikes again, with little regard for what people tell him to do
”if he’s not careful, the black dirt beneath his feet could bleed crimson. the exact combination of colours he came out here to avoid” this is stunning. i am immediately drawn into this fic, wanting to know what or who exactly neil is running from, and where he’s going
”buttermilk rays whisk the shadows of leaves into a dance on the forest floor beneath his feet” !! buttermilk?? somehow that works so so well
”the irony of calling it that in his head isn’t lost on him, and he vows to avoid that comparison again” what a subtle detail, but so telling! i am pretty bad with reading tags a lot of the time, so this was a great introduction to raven!neil
”it’s as exposing as it is freeing. he can’t feel trapped when he can see for miles every way he turns” wow it’s still so early in the fic, but you’ve already done an exceptional job at justifying neil choosing to come here, to escape.
foxtrot tower is such a cute name! i love that it’s not something directly taken from the books, this name seems to fit this au so well. i know that you likely had the game as reference for the tower, but i really liked the way you describe it, you were able to establish the same tone that exists in the game, but you did it through words instead of visuals and audio, something that really impresses me
”glad to hear you’re literate enough to have read the dossier” ohmygoodness ANDREW
”andrew’s tone is playful. neil thinks it might even be flirtatious, but he doesn’t care enough right now to find out” as much as i enjoy oblivious!neil, i appreciate that this version of neil is more aware, he seems more in tune with things around him. it fits better with this story, with the isolation and only communication being through the radio
”the sky slips into a more comfortable pink, the sun laying down to rest amongst the mountains” am i ever going to get over your descriptions of the environment? i don’t think so
of course neil goes for a run, basically right after doing a super intense two day hike in one day
”andrew sounds agitated” I LOVE THIS
oh dang, neil’s panic is so sudden, i’m so immersed that i immediately felt nervous too
”it’s our job to watch the horizon, neil. it’s not my fault you’re on mine” oh this is so good
”neil doesn’t believe in coincidences. he believes in traps and ill intentions, because that’s all his life has been until now” it’s honestly amazing how quickly the atmosphere of this fic has turned to something a little bit darker, kind of scary. we know neil as a runner, but the idea of someone finding him so soon and trying to lure him out? gives me chills
“he doesn’t realise his hands are shaking until he struggles to press the push-to-talk button” PUSH TO TALK I AM SO FOND OF FICS THAT INCLUDE THE TITLE OF THE FIC IN THEIR FIC. also shaky hands are my kryptonite
”he also takes the cleaver from the kitchen counter” NEIL I- I AM SPEECHLESS
”a small sensible part of his brain tries to convince him that there are much easier ways to kill him than leading him out in the middle of nowhere, in a forest that he told nobody from his past life that he would be living in, where he uses a new name that nobody knows” !! good to hear that neil has a sensible part of his brain LOL
”but underestimating his enemies and their taste for dramatics would be a mistake” neil of all people does have a good reason for being paranoid. i love that you have this separated as a different paragraph, i read it differently because of it and i think that it adds more gravity to the sentence
”there, he finds a lipstick-red tent, zipper teeth yawning open to reveal two pink sleeping bag tongues” the imagery!!! incredible
”he feels like a walking timebomb” yeah i am definitely nervous for neil
”’girls don’t do it for you?’ andrew’s curiosity has a hopeful slant” OHMYGOODNESS ANDREW
”andrew’s voice is a firm, solid reassurance” bless andrew
”neil never thought he’d be relieved to meet someone who didn’t like exy” i also never thought that. neil you are a changed man
ooh the backstory to the fireworks is so good! i was also thinking it was a little out of character, but this is the perfect reason that renee would let it slide!
”the stars are withering in the purpling sky” i could cry because i love your writing so much
A MAN I AM FREAKING OUT. WHO IS HE
the easygoing banter between andrew and neil is so great, their conversation is interesting and flows really well
”he’s almost home” it amazes me and really shows something about this version of neil that he’s so quick to call this tower his home
”i know i needed to do this, but i am not sure i am ready to be so alone” woah break my heart why don’t you? this hits really close to home,, how dare you make me feel emotions
”i usually take a more straightforward approach” andrew never lies, but this is the truest thing he has ever said
”they’ll probably never meet, because neil intends on spending the rest of his summer without meeting another soul, andrew included” hmmm why do i have the sneaking suspicion that this will not be the case?
”neil’s not sure what grindr is but his face heats up all the same” this sentence is a MOOD (except i do know what grindr is)
”andrew’s response is sharp like a blade. ‘why? because one of the girls called you scarface?’ neil feels himself flinch” hhh i am secretly a very big fan of scenes that include neil’s scars, so you got me here
”andrew keeps neil company on the hour hike up to the north of his sector, but his usual commentary seems a bit strained today” uhH what’s going on, i’m getting scared
DID ANDREW BRING NEIL OVER JUST SO HE CAN SEE WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE?
ohmygoodness, neil leaving andrew pictures and a sweatshirt? so so so cute
”he imagines the fear they felt when they saw him holding it wasn’t too unlike the fear that used to paralyse him when his father, or lola, would threaten him back home” woah this is good
i would bet that allison was the one to write that letter haha i can imagine that renee is likely kind of shaken by the incident, otherwise she might not have let allison leave it behind
andrew is such a good companion for neil, calming him both by his presence and by logically explaining what could have happened to the tent. he’s an anchor
”he feels like the cleaver he had attempted to defend himself with on his first day now carries a foreboding aura” YEAH I’M GETTING PRETTY NERVOUS TOO
WAIT NATHAN IS DEAD? THANK GOODNESS
woah so interesting to learn about neil’s backstory and his reason for not going pro “his offers to join pro teams curled up like dead leaves in a fire” dang, referencing both his burns and his new job? so good
ANDREW MINYARD IMITATING A VALLEY GIRL I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE PLEASE
oo that subtle way of mentioning andrew’s memory
i am so emotional, andrew is just so so good. makes me feel all the feelings ;-;
”andrew sounds like a bristled up cat tail” CUTE!!
i am dying to know what is going on in andrew’s head, during this conversation, when he left his tower to see neil, and really, just throughout this whole fic
woah i really like the way that you had neil describe his asexuality. it’s something that i recognize in myself and i like the way that you handled it.
>:C
them drawing each other?? peak cute. i want that to happen to me (have someone who doesn’t know what i look like try and draw me)
”neil waits for him to say more. he doesn’t. oh. that’s why. ‘heh’” LOLOL
you know what, i actually,,, only recognized the name draco malfoy LOL
ANDREW PRETENDING THAT HE DOESN’T ACTUALLY KNOW AARON OH MY GOODNESS. I CANNOT BELIEVE HE PRETENDED TO GET HIS NAME WRONG. “i look like him. but hotter and better dressed” ANDREW HOW GOOD TO YOU DRESS YOU LIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOREST. this whole section is hilarious and really helps lighten the tone and keep things playful
”’why would i wear that?’ andrew’s response is too quick and defensive” *unintelligible screaming*
ANDREW DRAWING NEIL IN TINY RUNNING SHORTS. THIS! MAN! I CAN’T HANDLE HIM
”neil gets into the routine of falling asleep next to his radio, talking to andrew deep into the night, far past his ability to keep his eyes open. they take turns drifting off mid conversation…” this is the softest thing ever
”considering neil’s job is to prevent forest fires, there’s a certain irony in how beautiful the park is when painted the colours of flames” oh (like a good oh)
ANDREW REJECTING NEIL REALLY JUST BROKE MY HEART WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO ME
”his heart tumbles from his chest and falls to the bottom of the ravine. he doesn’t understand why it was so close to the railings of his ribcage in the first place” this is so so beautiful even though it’s describing something so sad. makes me feel achy
drunk andrew. how is it that you, alexjosten, seem to know everything that i love in a fic?
”neil’s cabin floods with light. how real is neil josten without nathaniel wesninski filling his shell? with a snap, it’s gone.” uh this is so incredible, i love how you split everything up into its own paragraph, their conversation so similar to the storm. ugh i can’t get enough
”still, neil feels the change: the undeniable part of him where his branches have been torn asunder and his bark has been scorched away to expose his core” every time i think that this sentence is the best, and every time you blow me away again. i can’t describe how this sentence makes me feel
the scene of neil rescuing allison and renee fills me with adrenaline, it’s so intense
having the girls recognize neil was like being trapped in a nightmare, there was nothing i could do but read on and see how it ends. dajsflks. but also i really hope that neil got back his jacket and sweater lol
WHAT IN THE WORLD NEIL HAVING TO PLAY A GAME ON CODEINE, RIKO TRYING TO KILL NEIL ON TV, THIS IS SO INTENSE. also, i love what you’ve done with this
dang, how does andrew know kevin?
andrew’s gifts for neil are so cute. i am here just freaking out!!!!
A PUFFBALL DANDELION
“you sweet, sheltered city child” oh my goodness adorable
”you’re going to go nuts when i tell you what a caterpillar turns into” ANDREW
THE BEAR. THE JUMP
honestly, i’m a little surprised that neil wasn’t supplied with bear spray
”’andrew, i don’t think they’re coming for me.’ ‘of course they’re not.’ neil’s heart sinks. ‘they’re not?’ ‘i am’” KFAJSDFJPOJAFD THIS GLORIOUS INTERACTION WILL FOREVER BE WITH ME
THEM TRAVELLING AND EVERYTHING WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE BECAUSE OF THE DARK. ALSO ANDREW BEING SUPER BUFF AND PICKING NEIL UP NO BIG DEAL
”we had your face on a dart board in the break room” AHHHH
”the only consolation is it smells of the andrew who just walked two hours to rescue him from the side of a cliff, and then spent another two hours carrying him here” i don’t even know what to say
wait andrew knew who neil was the whole time oh my goodness
THE GAME IS ANIMAL CROSSING. this is now and forevermore considered canon!
ANDREW DROPPING THE GAME HE’S SO TIRED. ANDREW MY BABY
ANDREW’S DRAWING OF NEIL
”half of andrew’s sandwich is in his mouth, and he kind of looks like a hamster” adorable!
okay okay jean and jeremy being the two trading letters? so so good.
THE ENDING WITH ANDREW TELLING STORIES ABOUT NEIL BEING DEAD
the last chapter was amazing, i loved the way that you wrote the interactions between andrew and neil, they fit so well together. i also appreciate that you deviated from the game and had them meet! it is infinitely more satisfying. this was such an easy fic to read, everything felt right. i love your characterization of both of them. to have andrew treat neil the way that he did, knowing who neil was? amazing
also, can i just say that the moodboards that you include at the beginning of each chapter are amazing? they really helped with establishing the tone of the fic.
this fic is so intense, i was constantly amazed by how i was so fully immersed in it. everything that neil felt, i felt. your descriptions were gorgeous and i could not get enough of them. there were so many small details, sentences that were pure gems, that rereading this was just as, if not more, enjoyable than the first time. i really cannot put to words how much i loved reading this. thank you so so much for writing it!

Kara/Lena aren't Lex/Clark, the writers aren't telling the same story.
(long post)
Ok, so I know Melissa Benoist said that she was happy they were doing the whole Lex and Clark story with Kara and Lena, but here's the thing, they haven't really been doing that.
Here me out:.
Now we all know that Supergirl writers like to stea...hem hem I mean 'borrow' stories from Smallville a lot. Did any of you watch Smallville at all? When Melissa or anyone refers to Clark and Lex's relationship do you know what they are referring to? (I'm not being an ass i genuinely want to know if you've seen Smallville or just heard about it?)
Well I watched all ten seasons of Smallville and Lena and Kara's friendship really isn't that much like Clark and Lex's was.
No one, not even Clark himself knew of the existence of aliens. Clark was sceptical until his father showed him his ship. So there was no Lex Luthor hates aliens at this point.
Clark and Lex met because Lex knocked Clark off the road and Clark saved his life. In the process of doing that he ripped the top off of Lex's car. This was Lex's first warning sign that there was something different about Clark Kent. Lex even had the car fished out of the lake and had a team of expert scientists examine it because he couldn't figure out how the roof managed to rip itself open. Clark later finds the room with all of this data and he freaks out on Lex demanding he just let it go. That was just Clark screaming 'yes I am different but I'm not telling you why so just drop it'.
But before all of this Lex ad Clark were best friends. Now Lex isn't an angel when he first arrives, but he isn't evil either. He's just a 20 something year old play boy who was sent to Smallville by an unloving father to manage a crap factory (actual crap!) The moment Lex turns up everyone takes an instant dislike to him, it's not because he's a play boy and it isn't because he's done anything to hurt them, it's because his father is Lionel Luthor who managed to con a lot of people out of their land. This includes Clark's parents, Jonathan Kent really had it out for Lex in the beginning and Clark's best friend Pete hates him to.
Now when Lena turns up in National City she is already aware that aliens are real. She isn't even interested all that much in them, no more than humans anyway, save for the detection device which she scraps. Lena is instantly judged by National City, Clark and James all on the basis of something someone else in her family had done. This does parallel Smallville but that's pretty much where they similarities end.
Clark became besties with Lex, but Lex gradually became a villian, he learned about the existence of what were known as 'metor freaks' (basically meta humans) who got that way due to exposure to the 'metor rocks' (Kryptonite). He began to experiment on them and treat them as lab rats. He had a whole facility dedicated to human experimentation on people he deemed less than human (this is where the Justice League popped up). It was called 33.1 and then Black Creek. Lex still had his good moments though. Lex was also constantly put down by Lionel, even allowed to almost die by him. Blamed for the death of his baby brother and then he had to witness Lionel caring more about Clark than he ever had about Lex. Lex also learned about aliens and artifacts and he became obsessed.
Where does Clark fit in? Well Clark consistently lied to Lex when Lex knew that Clark was different, he gave him so many opportunities to tell him, he outright asked him and Clark still denied it. Clark was a crap liar and Lex knew it, Lex was driven mad by all of it, even possessed by General Zod at one point. Now we know that Lex was always going to be bad because we were shown flashes of the future with him dressed in a white suit and blood red rain. Lex actually saw this once to and was horrified!
Lex didn't have anyone other than Clark. His own father couldn't stand him, his wife was inlove with his ex best friend and his dad was actually possessed by Jor El at one point.
All of this is vastly different to Lena and Kara. For a start Lena and Kara have the gift of hindsight. They know about Lex and Clark's pasts. Lena has made it abundantly clear she isn't like Lex and has done nothing but prove that over and over again. She experimented on a CONSENTING Adam and then that tech was utilized by the DEO including Alex and Brainy. (A fact people tend to forget). Lena isn't a saint, but that doesn't make her Lex Luthor. Smallville Lex didn't give a crap if someone died, Lena was devastated.
So Lena and Kara all ready know the mistakes of Lex and Clark. Lena knows all about the super fued and Lex's hate for aliens and especially Kryptonians. But Lena has been friendly with Supergirl and Superman from the moment she showed up.
Lena also hasn't been driven mad because Kara is consistently lying to her when Lena knows something is up. That's a far cry from Clark literally driving Lex insane by lying to his face. Its like there being a pink elephant in the room and you point it out but the other person insists it's not there. It would drive anyone mad. Lex even said he would have been cool if 'some people had been honest with him'.
Lena had only just found out that Kara has been Supergirl this whole time. It's still a betrayal but it isn't the same one as Lex and Clark. Lena unlike Lex (both Smallville and Jon Cryer's) never had any issues with working with a Super and she never had issues with aliens.
So it really isn't the same story at all, Smallville Clark drove Lex crazy with his lies and Lex was always doomed to be bad he even saw it. Kara didn't drive Lena crazy with lies and Lena isn't doomed to always be the bad guy like Lex was. (Check the comics) No matter what genre it is Lex will always be the bad guy. But Lena is a question mark, she's so far from Smallvilles Lex and Supergirl's Lex.
Even Smallville had it's version of Lena, Tess Mercer. She was a good person who was found by Lex and manipulated by him, she became his protege and then found out she was his sister and he had even placed cameras in her body to always watch her. Tess wasn't a saint either, but the bad things she did was to push Clark into his destiny. (There was a lot of prophecy nonsense in Smallville) she came to help when she had to though, plus she died heroically. She came back in the comics as an AI that helped the Team.
Also the Lex Luthor of Supergirl tried to get Superman to join him before he turned on him, thats a common plot. James even told the story of how they were friends (sounded like the Smallville version) and no matter what bad things Lex did Clark wouldn't see it (again Smallville). Lena never asked Supergirl to join her, there was a mutual respect and they helped each other. Even when they were fighting Lena came and helped the DEO and to save Supergirl's life. It was the Superfriends that welcomed Lena to the DEO, not Lena recruiting them.
One major difference to the Lex of Smallville and the Lena of Supergirl is that Lex wasn't a genius, he had other people do all his science for him.
So they really aren't telling the same story as Clark and Lex at all. The only similarities are Kara and Lena being friends and they will have a fall out. But it's nowhere near the same story.
