This is such a beautiful gif set. A mutual just wrote about not being able to read low-contrast text on gifs like these, so I thought I’d try my hand at writing an ID for the set.  Each image is shown in gold tones with text overlayed in white and gold. In most of them, the text is a mix of white all caps non-serif font and a larger loose cursive style font in gold. For the overlayed text description, I’ll type the cursive cursive words in all caps and the rest in proper case.
 Gif 1 ID: Image of Kara Danvers in a cardigan handling a telescope and holding a mug. Her hair is loose and hanging over her shoulders. Overlayed text reads: “PLEASE, LET HER BE SOFT.”
Gif 2 ID: Image of Supergirl looking into the camera looking serious and heroic. Overlayed text reads, “I know you made her with GUNMETAL BONES and WOLF'S TEETH. I know you made her to be a WARRIOR, a SOLDIER, a HERO.” Gif 3 ID: Close-up image of Kara Danvers with her hair in a ponytail. She is wearing a crewneck sweater and has a sad, concerned expression on her face. Overlayed text reads, “But even GUNMETAL can warp and even WOLF'S TEETH can dull and I don’t want to see her BREAK the way old and worn and OVERUSED things do.” Gif 4 ID: Image of Supergirl being thrown into water by Superman during a fight. Overlayed text reads, “I do not want to see her go up in FLAMES the way all heroes end up MARTYRS.” Gif 5 ID: Image of Supergirl looking pensive, possibly regretful. Overlayed text reads, “I know that you will tell me that the world needs her. The world needs her HEART and her FAITH and her COURAGE and her STRENGTH and her BONES and her TEETH and her BLOOD and her VOICE and her–  The world needs anything she will give them." Gif 6 ID: Image of Lena Luthor looking up at the person speaking to her. She is in black and white, her hair is up in a bun, and the background is in tones of yellow. Overlayed text reads, “DAMN the world. And DAMN you too. DAMN anyone that ever asked anything of her, DAMN anyone that ever took anything from her, DAMN anyone that ever prayed to her name.”
Gif 7 ID: Two images of Supergirl overlayed. In one, she is on her hands and knees. In the other, she is rising to her feet. Overlayed text reads, “You know that she will give them everything until there is nothing left of her but the imprint of dust WHERE HER FEET ONCE TROD. You know that she will bear the world like Atlas until her shoulders collapse and her knees buckle AND SHE IS CRUSHED BY ALL SHE USED TO CARRY.” Gif 8 ID: Image of a group of DC heros in black and white, including Batwoman, Green Arrow, Superman, Flash, and Supergirl. Overlayed text reads, “DEAR GOD,  you have already made an ATLAS. You have already made an ACHILLES and an ICARUS and a HERCULES. You have already made so many heroes, and you can make another again. You can have your pick of heroes.” Gif 9 ID: Image of Lena Luthor with tears in her eyes. She is wearing a black shirt and her hair hangs over one shoulder in a braid. Overlayed text reads, “So please, I beg you–  SHE IS ALL THAT I HAVE, and you have so many heroes, and the world has so many more.”
Gif 10 ID: Split frame of two images. The left side is Kara Danvers relaxed and laughing with a glass of wine in her hand. She is wearing a grey cardigan and her hair is in a loose, messy bun. The right side is Lena Luthor relaxed and laughing with a glass of wine in her hand. She is wearing a red top and her hair is loose and falling over her shoulders. Overlayed text reads, “Let her be SOFT, and let her be MINE.”

Today Variety (see above) had an article naming Heidi Schreck as the new writer for the live action She-Ra series at Amazon that was announced back in Sept 2021 and, after seeing dozens of terrible takes and people who are fans of the Netflix's She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2017) freaking out, let's talk about this, shall we?
Disclaimer that I do not have any insider knowledge of this project specifically, this is just my educated perspective from my experience with IP and TV.
First and foremost, I will believe this project is actually happening when it is showing on my TV and not a moment sooner. Let's just say that.
Now assuming it IS happening, here's what you should understand...
IP is usually use it or lose it. If Dreamworks wants to keep the rights to make She-Ra content, they very likely must have something in active development or risk listing it. If Netflix isn't willing to make more of the animated series right now, then the Amazon deal is all they have or give She-Ra up entirely. 
If you're an SPOP (2017) fan, you're in favor of Dreamworks retaining the license over losing it because, so long as they have it, the door is always open for more of our SPOP in one way or another. This reboot doesn't negate the possibility of a continuation of the animated version or vice versa. (Fans of frequently rebooted properties like TMNT and MLP would be happy to tell you about how there's been content for multiple gens at the same time.) It's not like the new version erases the old. If anything, a reboot often makes it more likely you get content of a past gen because of renewed interest in the property as a whole.
"But what if it's sexist trash!" The biggest fear people had about this reboot was that it would be some male gaze disaster made to please the worst kind of people who hate all kinds of diversity. Obviously, we'll see what we get, but the fact that they specifically got a feminist playwright as the writer is a big thing should alleviate some of that fear.
"But will it be gay????" I've seen lots of freaking out that Adora's going to kill Catra and marry a man on her grave and other equally unlikely fears. And the fact is: We don't know if it will be gay! With this writer, the gay door certainly isn't closed, but that doesn't mean it's open either. But honestly the real question you should be asking is: will it be explicitly gay? Because the rainbow homo-eroticism is baked right into She-Ra OG so even if we don't get an explicit same-sex kiss on screen... it's likely still gonna be pretty gay.
Even a bad or infuriating reboot will revitalize the fandom and bring new fans to SPOP (2017) AND increase the chances of continuation. Say the new show is terrible. Say they annoy everyone by giving Catra and Adora a supercorp queerbaiting thing and then never make it canon or make Catra and Hordak in love and everyone is mad. (Which I feel obligated to point out is *extremely* unlikely as this is literally still Dreamworks' show. They are the same people that gave you the gay. They are keenly aware of what their audience wants so, even if they are reluctant to make it canon, at the least they are probably going to tease it.) But even in the worst case scenario of the straightest possible version of She-Ra, what are people going to do if the new show pisses them off? Turn back to She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, create more fanworks, interact with what's already there, keep the fandom alive for everyone. You want that!
"Well SPOP (2017) was perfect and they should never be allowed to make another version of She-Ra again unless it's just like the thing we just got!" Wow, where have I heard something like that before? Oh yeah, that's exactly what the nightmare chuds said about Netflix's She-Ra and if they had gotten their way, we wouldn't have had this show we love. So maybe take a nice deep breath, chill tf out and look at that fact that there is no reason yet to see this announcement as anything other than a good thing for both this new reboot and the animated version's future.

See all the Marks of my Wounded Past on AO3
Kara Zor-El was sent to Earth to protect her baby cousin. She landed, but never found him. Instead the name of a stranger was indelibly written in her arm since her landing. She never paid much attention to that name; survival was much more important to accomplish, with no one to take care of her anymore.
Lena’s life was forever changed when her soulmate mark made her appearance at the age of twelve, when not only one name showed up, but two. It didn’t get any better when more kept appearing and appearing. Exceedingly alarming, she was sure one of the names wasn’t even human. And then they met each other.
OR Soulmate AU
Language: English || Words: 50,640 || Chapters: 3/3
I am extremely excited to share the supercorp fic that I wrote with the incomparable @snowydragonscave for @supergirlmayhem. And art from the amazing @rustingcat who did a FANTASTIC job understanding what the fic was about, first of all, and second making it come to life with her honestly breathtaking drawing [Here]
This was a labor of love, (and tears because... this was never supposed to be this long) and truly I couldn't ask for a better co-writer than Snowy. It was a joy, and truly an amazing experience that I hope we get to repeat. Thanks to everyone who cheered on us, and to the creators of the event. It was an honor to participate.

Hello, I'm sorry for being weird coming to your inbox to send these receipts but you are like, one of my favorite sc fic writers SO thank you so much for these compliments 🤓 the 2+ hours spent creating each of these gifsets always worth the joy of seeing the fandom react by being reminded of supercorp's never ending chokehold in our lives
my dearest dude i ADORE your sets so to the mutual appreciation society we go! seriously i am forever in awe of gif makers in general and stand firm in my conviction that i would never have fallen in the same amount of love with our corner of the supergirl fandom if it wasn't for these amazing creators and i can't even BEGIN to imagine the kind of work that goes into making them at all, but on top of all of that yours are super crisp and amazingly vivid and gosh, i can't tell you how often i've had to just sit and stare at them for a while as they pop up. thank you so much for all that time and dedication, you help make my dashboard a beautiful place!

Please interpret "favorite" however you like. Could be your favorite pairing that you like to rage against the network for refusing to make canon. The pairing you love to hate. The pairing you hate to love. The pairing you watched a whole entire series for even though you knew that the creators following through on their queerbaity nonsense was a pipe dream. Your favorite pairing to read/write/make fanfiction or fan art or gifs or manips or fan art for. Etc...
I tried to limit it to pairings with lots of canon chemistry but no canon romance. I'm sure I missed some and hope you'll add them in the tags.
Please vote! Reblogs would be great, too.

CWSG Fanvid idea?
A while ago I made *this* silly little post... 
Now, I’ve stumbled across: 
youtube
So, my obvious question is: 
Has anyone made a Supergirl-Diversity fanvid with that song yet?
I vote:
Kara as Funshine Bear
Alex as Proud Heart Cat (doesn’t sing, is referenced to as “he”, but whatever...)
Nia as Wish Bear 
Brainy as Bright Heart Racoon
Esme as Cheer Bear (bc she’s cute, okay!)
...and maybe Papa J’onn as Grumpy Bear (because everybody likes him, even if he tries to look stern) 
others [Kelly, Psy, Livewire, Cat, Lena, Andrea, Winn, redD, Mxy, Barry, Nia’s roomie, Maggie, Spike, Sara, Leonard Snart...] to feature in the chorus
But I am not your mom, so whoever did or wants to do this, let your creativity flow~  ...all I ask is a link to the vid so I can indulge XD 
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤

Lena has her theories. Like a good scientist, she devises “scientific” experiments to collect data…it’s just convenient this is more exhilarating than outright asking the question to the appropriate person: is Kara Danvers a boob or an ass girl?
Let it be known, this popped into my mind because of your reblog of Supergirl daydreaming about Lena in the throes of passion (likely by Kara’s own doing 😉💋)
okay first, we have to admit that the creator of that post blessed us all. second, this was hilarious to write. I had so much fun. here you go:
It's for Science (Supercorp)
by marinawolf
Tumblr media
Lena Luthor, the scientific genius and CEO of L-Corp and Catco, found herself embroiled in a daring experiment. The subject? Her best friend and secret crush, Kara Danvers. Lena was determined to discover one crucial piece of information: was Kara a boob or an ass girl?
Of course, Lena couldn't just outright ask Kara about her preferences. No, that would be far too direct and potentially awkward. Instead, she decided to employ her scientific mind to devise a series of "experiments" to collect data and draw her conclusions.
It all started innocently enough. Lena strategically chose her outfits, opting for outfits that accentuated her assets. She made sure to occasionally drop something in front of Kara, bending down slowly to retrieve the item. Lena even went so far as to discreetly unbutton the top of her shirt, providing a subtle glimpse of cleavage whenever she was around Kara. For science, of course.
But Kara, being Kara, was oblivious to Lena's attempts. Lena had, however, garnered the attention of many others in her office, who were captivated by her attempts, much to her dismay. However, Lena was determined to provoke a reaction from her friend, and she wasn't about to give up.
One day, during a lunch break at CatCo, Lena brought in an array of donuts. She strategically placed a tray of donuts right in front of Kara, leaning over Kara's desk, giving her a full view down her unbuttoned shirt. Lena's heart raced as she watched Kara's eyes widen with delight at the sight of the delicious treats.
Lena waited with bated breath, hoping for a telling reaction.
To Lena's dismay, Kara simply reached for a chocolate-covered donut without a second thought. Lena tried to hide her disappointment.
Later, at the DEO, after Lena had "dropped" her pen in front of Kara, Alex sidled up to her, sipping a coffee.
"Why are you bending down like a stripper in front of my sister? That's like the third time tonight."
Lena flushed her mind suddenly unable to formulate an explanation.
"Don't worry," Alex continued, laughing, "She notices. The first time, she actually walked into a glass wall. Luckily it was reinforced, so it didn't shatter"
Lena's heart leapt but still, she wasn't convinced. She hadn't seen Kara react at all, and as a scientist, she needed to see her results first hand to believe it.
But she refused to give up. She couldn't let a few failed experiments deter her from her quest for knowledge. It was for science, and she was committed to science.
It was during a cozy movie night at Lena's penthouse that she decided to execute her most daring experiment yet. As they settled onto the couch, Lena discreetly unbuttoned her shirt, exposing a tantalizing hint of cleavage. She observed Kara out of the corner of her eye, trying to gauge her reaction without being too obvious.
To her delight, Lena noticed Kara stealing glances her way throughout the movie. The sight of Kara's eyes lingering on her filled Lena's heart with a mixture of excitement and nervous anticipation. Perhaps her experiment was indeed yielding results.
As the movie progressed, Lena's heart raced, waiting for the perfect opportunity to reveal itself. She couldn't concentrate on the film, her mind consumed by the thrilling prospect of finally getting an answer to her burning question.
Just when Lena thought she couldn't wait any longer, Kara's hand brushed against hers in the darkness of the room. The touch sent a jolt of electricity through Lena's veins, and she turned to look at Kara, their eyes locking in an intense gaze.
Without a moment's hesitation, Kara leaned in and pressed her lips against Lena's, kissing her with a desperate longing that took Lena by surprise. The intensity of the moment left them breathless as they finally broke apart, their foreheads resting against each other.
"I've been dying to do that all week," Kara admitted, her voice filled with a mix of desire and relief.
Lena's heart fluttered, her experiment having unexpectedly led her to this extraordinary outcome.
But still, she didn't know: Was Kara a boob or an ass girl?
--
Months later, as Lena lay in bed, her arms wrapped around a sleepy Kara, she finally asked the question.
And Kara's response made her heart flutter.
"I'm a you girl."

“Well, if you don’t need explicitly canon, why don’t you like WLW ships like Supercorp? They’re not canon and they’re lead main characters in the show.”
Because I don’t like having my main meal be taken away from me and then just be given a dog bone to chew on instead as if that’s sufficient to my needs.
I would much prefer to have the three-courser meal.
Xena and Gabrielle may not be viewed as explicitly canon by everyone but they’re still an epic love story to me and the show doesn’t shy away from that. They heavily lean into it and they give you all that they can. They don’t suddenly go “Hey - here’s this other couple instead that aren’t as significant as these characters to the story but I’m sure you can make do with them.” when I never even asked for that in the first place!
Supercorp, to me, feels like the perfectly prepared three-courser meal. Everything is so delicately put together, all the ingredients in each serving compliment each other perfectly, and the meal looks appetizing as all get out. And then that three-courser meal immediately gets wheeled away and is replaced with a dog bone and maybe a bowl of kibble on the side. It’s not even meant for me to eat,… let alone would actually satisfy my appetite. I feel devalued.
Xena and Gabrielle, on the other hand, may not be the perfectly prepared meal with everything done right… there’s flaws, there’s things I wish wasn’t in there…
But least I actually get to eat the whole thing.
Least it will fill me up.
Least I feel catered to.
Sanvers is a good WLW/queer ship and I know many people love them. That’s great. But they had the right characters from the beginning. Why not use them?
I’ll tell you the reason why.
Because they didn’t want lead WLW/queer characters.
Why didn’t they want them?
Because heroes can’t be gay.
Because they’re homophobic.
And I have no interest debating this. This is how I feel. They gave us Sanvers to mollify us. Not represent us.
Supercorp is the true ship. Clearly. You cannot watch that show and not not see that they’re the true ship. And because you can see it that much with them, it’s aggravating to watch at all. So I don’t watch it. I know it would be right up my alley but I don’t watch it because I do not accept being queer-baited and then hoodwinked into thinking they actually care about me by giving me some random ass secondary WLW ship.
I know they don’t care at all. And that’s the end of it.
Wynonna Earp may have a secondary WLW/queer ship also, but it’s established from the get-go that it would be the main romance of the entire show and that the main lead character has no interest in women enough for anything like that secondary WLW/queer ship to come from it. It makes sense. And it’s done very well.
It’s not a “I’ll throw you a bone because you can’t have the three-courser meal”. It never was. Supergirl was. And even though Supergirl may be the show most notorious for doing this, it’s not the only one at all.
There’s a lot of shows and creators that need to do much fucking better when it comes to WLW/queer representation. That need to start making us equal. I want to be the hero. I want to be the main narrative. I want to be the lead protagonist - with warts and all.
And I don’t want to have to apologize for being queer just because it’s not the “big market” or “right target”.
In other words:
I just want to matter as much as the straights do.
And the only shows that have truly made me feel that way are ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’ and ‘Wynonna Earp’.
No, not everything is perfect but I know they care.
I know they will always care.
You go watch any behind-the-scenes featurette on Xena or Wynonna Earp with the cast/crew and then go watch one for Supergirl or Supernatural. You’ll see it.
Colossal fucking difference!
Yeah, I’m angry and I won’t hide it because I shouldn’t have to. My anger is valid because it’s really not right.
They need to do better. Everybody needs to do better.

Mood. They are living across the hall/street from Edeleth in my brain. They get together for double dates every now and then and just exchange stories or catch up. I love getting random postcard greetings from them randomly throughout my life after they have cemented themselves in my brain. 😌🤡

Hi there! Thought long and hard before making this post but it seems like I don’t have much choice. 
I’m facing downsizing at my corporate job and the market is shit right now while the economy is even worse. I need 2000$ to make rent in November. Any income would be a huge help so I’ve decided to relaunch my patreon. 
I’ll post all the stuff I write on ao3 anyway, so patreon is more of an early-access place. (Some more explicit smut might remain there, but the majority of the fics will be released for free over the course of time.) 
If you enjoy my writing and have 3$ a month to spare, you’ll be helping me through a very difficult time. 
Fics that will be releasing earlier on patreon: 
tis the damn season, rhaenicent 
lay me down (let the thought come easy), rhaenicent 
Ships I will post: 
rhaenicent 
supercorp
agathario 
I’m also open to commissions so if you’d like to get one, hit me up! 
Bless you, thank you, and have a great time of the day.

I get why you didn't answer my ask publicly. It was you that stole that work word for word from that creator. I'm not the fanfiction police, but it's really sad, I thought you were a great original writer, but who knows how many of your stories are stolen from other less known creators and changed to fit other characters . Really disappointing
WAIT WAIT COME BACK OMG THIS IS SO FUNNY
i AM lemon_meringue_tart, i recently got into supercorp and wanted to make a separate account to distinguish myself from marvel... but the supercorp fic wasn't getting much traction at first so i cross-posted it on my main acc 😭😭
here's the proof of me being logged into that acc:
Tumblr media
so yea, it is me 💀
after cross-posting and responding to some comments i genuinely forgot i posted it originally as a supercorp fic... i want to clarify that i would NEVER steal from other creators of any kind, much less smaller creators who put in sm effort!! i was in that position once too.
glad i could clear up this mess omg 😭 sorry for the confusion anon i hope you dont hate me forever

Fandom creators tag game
1. What sort of content do you create, and what is the thing you’ve made that you’re most proud of?
I write stories. Strictly fanfic only; I don’t think I’m quite brave enough to try writing my own stuff. I’m trying to learn how to draw, but I’m a bit too much of a perfectionist so it’s slow going. I’m quite proud of my first CW Supergirl fanfic, make this place your home. I didn’t think people would like it so much.
2. What fandom(s) do you create for?
I’ve only posted things for CW Supergirl, and it’s just the one story plus a oneshot series for Supercorptober. But I’ve tried my hand at a couple other fandoms, namely Assassin’s Creed and Marvel’s X-23. But those aren’t fully fleshed out, more like writing exercises.
3. What is your current favourite ship (or brotp if you prefer), and how controversial is it?
Supercorp. Not sure if it’s controversial? Doesn’t feel like it.
4. For your answer to question 3, are they canon?
THEY ARE CANON IN MY HEART. Seriously though, they’re not explicitly canon on the TV series itself, but I know they were confirmed in the Batwoman comic by the writer.
5. What was your first fandom, and how old were you?
I know it’s controversial now, but the first fandom I really got obsessed with was Harry Potter. I grew up with those books, so since I was around 10, I guess? I’m not quite brave enough to get into fanfic writing for that fandom though, both because of the controversy and because the people over there can be kind of mean from what I’ve seen in comments. I’m sure it’s not everyone, but the Supercorp fandom has been so nice and I think I’m a bit spoiled.
6. What is your most unhinged fandom creation to date?
I haven’t written a lot, but maybe it’s the Spice Girls oneshot for my Supercorptober series? Or maybe the vigilante prompt for the same series, the one where Kara’s an office lunch thief. Idk.
7. Do you remember what started you off creating fandom content, and if so, what was it?
I first started watching Supergirl when it first started, but I fell out of it after S2. Then I got back into it during the lockdowns in 2020, smack in the middle of the big rift, and that was that.
8. Do you let people you know in real life see your fandom creations?
Nope. No one in real life knows.
9. How do you feel about fanworks of fanworks? Has anyone ever made something based on a thing you made?
I love it! I’ve received two pieces of fanworks, both from @thatonebirdwrites, who also tagged me in this game! I wish I could return the favor, but again, I’m not quite confident enough for that. Maybe in the future.
10. What feeling do you most often try to evoke with your creations?
I find that in canon stories, there’s a lot of handwaving over little details in a way that requires a lot of suspension of disbelief. Like in CW’s Supergirl, there’s a lot of vague science and plotholes that drive me crazy. I’m a scientist, so I like trying to infuse my work with realism, and I like making things make sense, if that makes sense lol. I think that goes for both character motivations and for things in the world I write. I usually end up with lots of background information that never makes into the story, but I feel like it makes the story stronger when I find the opportunity to weave it in. Tl;dr, I try to make the world and the characters feel real and grounded.
11. Has someone ever paid your work a compliment (in any form) that has stuck with you, and what was it?
In the same vein as the previous question, a few people have said they enjoy my worldbuilding and storytelling, so that’s lovely.
12. What’s your favourite thing someone else has made that you’ve seen in the last 24 hours (and link it if you can find it again!)
In the last 24 hours? I think it might be an older Supercorp art piece with Kara and Lena snuggled up together with a cat. It was reblogged by @fazedlight under #vintage supercorp, which is awesome because I wasn’t on tumblr at the time a lot of fan stuff was circulating.
13. Give a small sneak preview of something you’re working on right now (eg a couple of sentences of fic from a WIP, a gif set theme, a small piece of a larger picture, whatever you feel happy to share)
Little fluff scene from make this place your home:
“Ahem.”
Kara’s eyes opened when Lena jerked away. Jess was standing in the doorway, an amused, uncomfortable smile on her face. “Miss Luthor, the Danvers are here.”
“Right.” Lena straightened up, discreetly wiping at her mouth with the back of her hand. “We just need five minutes, then you can let them in.”
“Of course.”
Jess shut the door behind her, and Lena stood, clearing out the debris from lunch, and Kara started to help. “Are you upset that Jess saw us?”
Lena chuckled. “Not upset, no. A little embarrassed, maybe; kissing isn’t exactly a workplace activity, after all.”
Kara’s brow furrowed “Should we not do it here, then?” she asked, trying to get a firm grasp on what things were and were not allowed in terms of physical affection. For all that humans enjoyed it, it seemed there were a lot of rules surrounding what was and wasn’t appropriate in different places.
“No, no.” Lena smiled. “It’s fine. Besides, I think Jess will knock from now on.”
“Okay.”
Excerpt from an in-progress medieval omegaverse Supercorp AU:
“Might I cut in for the next dance?”
Lena turned. The clumsy blonde alpha from Krypton was standing there, a hopeful smile on her face. Edge turned as well, chest puffing up at the younger alpha as he exuded dominating pheromones. The Kryptonian straightened but remained perfectly civil. The music had ended, and Lena gladly took the opportunity to step away from the scowling Morgan Edge. “Certainly, my lord.” She cut her eyes back to Edge. “Duke Edge.”
Ignoring his grunted reply, she let the Kryptonian alpha take her hand, and oh, that felt nice. Lena’s hand just fit into the alpha’s warm, not-at-all-clammy one. Lena’s brow furrowed. That, combined with the blonde’s fairly pretty features and her refreshing scent, had Lena’s omega perking its head up.
It was annoying.
She allowed the Kryptonian to lead her back to the dance floor as the musicians started. “Lord Zor-El, is it?”
“Kara, please.” The alpha – Kara – settled her hand on her waist, leading them into an easy waltz. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Lady Luthor.”
14. Have you ever seen/read anything made by the person who tagged you? If so, what was it and what was your favourite thing about it? (pick a favourite if there are several)
Yes! I’ve just caught up on the Shared Moments series by @thatonebirdwrites! It’s a Korrasami rewrite of The Legend of Korra, and the worldbuilding and lore is absolutely world-class; the changes they made to canon are so imaginative and so well thought out. It’s in progress, and I can’t wait to read more.
15. Do you leave comments on fandom works, and if so how would you describe your comment style?
I try, but I’m not very good at doing it consistently. It’s hypocritical, I know, considering how much I appreciate every comment I receive. But I’m trying to do better.
16. How many works in progress do you currently have? Will you finish them all?
I only have one fic that’s currently being posted, but I’ve got another Supercorp fic in the works (see sneak peek above). I have other ideas waiting, but those are probably the main ones. I’m definitely finishing make this place your home, and I do hope to finish my other ideas. There just never seems to be enough time.
17. what’s the longest it’s ever taken you to finish a fandom project?
I haven’t finished any! Not unless Supercorptober counts, and I finished that in the requisite month, by some kind of miracle. Make this place your home has been going for over a year and I really hope to have it done before it reaches two.
18. Describe the thing you made most recently in a way that is technically true, but also completely misleading. Link the thing if it’s published!
I’m gonna pass on this one, not sure I understand how to answer :/
19. Do you ever engage with fanworks for a fandom you’re not in? Which one(s) and how did you get into it?
I guess not? I find it hard to read fanfics if I don’t know the background, let alone write for it.
20. Recommend a fan work from your fandom to your followers
Not sure I have any followers lol. I think one of my favorite fics is The Science Guild by dreiser, which is one of the inspirations I had for a more science-y Kara. It went dormant for a few years but it miraculously updated a couple of weeks ago. But I also want to recommend Confession by TheBirdWrites, which is an absolutely fantastic. I’m still catching up on the sequel fic, Unraveling Realities, and it’s still ongoing, but it’s so good.
I know it’s not great to be a dead end for a tag game, but I don’t really have any mutuals because I’m too shy to follow people, let alone tag them. I did have fun answering this though :)

All The WLW Ships
As many of you probably read on our Tumblr account yesterday, we experienced some interesting questions and responses to a few of our posts. While it wasn’t what we expected, we knew there was bound to be some discord during the lead up to the event. Especially when we are promoting as many of the ships as we can. All three of us have worked diligently to be transparent about our intentions and vision for Supergirl May-hem. We’ve put a great deal of time, passion, and tears into the planning, organizing, and creation of what we hope to be a unique experience for all involved. Yesterday was eye-opening for us in ways we hadn’t anticipated and the catalyst for this post.
When we began our planning in July, the number one thing on our list was to create an inclusive, safe space for all the wlw ships from the show. As writers ourselves, we know what goes into the creation of the stories and art we share within our community. Each of us mods have experienced some form of bullying or harassment related to our creative work and wanted to create policies to prevent things like that inside the May-hem event. We’ve been very clear and adamant about that since the beginning. We want a safe space for all of the fanfiction and fan art creators to share their passions with like-minded people. That desire is still the heart of what we’re doing and will remain so throughout.
After our posts (including the lovely rant from our resident tornado, Chaos), we received so much love and support from so many beautiful souls in our fandom. To say that it was a much needed shift for our team is an understatement. We appreciate each and every one of you that reached out, ranted on our behalf, and listened to us blow off some steam. Your presence and encouragement helped settle and reinforce our goals.
We realized that not only do we want to create a safe and inclusive space for all the wlw ships, we also want to encourage anyone that has been hesitant to dip their toe into the pool of other ships. We want to give all of you the safety to explore something new if you want. This is something the Supergirl May-hem team is passionate about. The three of us have historically written Supercorp specific fics, but for this event, we have been exploring some of the other ships (you can see our ficlet collection here). It has been fun and we’ve discovered that we enjoy it a lot! We know there are others out there too.
So, if you’ve been thinking about venturing into some of the other ships in our fandom, why not try it through Supergirl May-hem? There is a lower word count to allow for writing more than one fic and there will be several spaces to get support inside our Discord server when it opens in a few weeks. Write for whatever ship is your favorite, that’s what this event is about. Just know, we will support, encourage, and cheer you on if you also choose to explore a secondary ship too. That’s the beauty of what we’re trying to create…it’s all the wlw ships.
--The SG May-hem Team
