DP Fic Exchange
Here’s my fic for the fic exchange for @rainsart based on this piece (x). I went a little overboard with this one, but I hope you enjoy! ^.^ (Btw, the timeline on this is vague.)
-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
“Danny, stop pacing. You’re going to make a hole in the floor.” Danny was snapped out of his pacing. He turned to Jazz who looked about thirty seconds away from throwing her book at him. Her fingers drummed against the side of the book, as one of her eyes actually twitched in irritation.
Maybe he shouldn’t have been pacing in the living room, but he was twitchy damn it.
He huffed and let his arms flop dramatically on top of the couch. “They’re late,” He bemoaned.
“People can be late.” Faux patience laced her voice.
“Sam isn’t!”
“And Tucker?”
“...Okay, but-”
Jazz slammed her book, making a move to stand up. “Danny,” Oh shit, she had on her mom voice. Danny already straightened his back and crossed his arms over his chest before he even realized what he was doing. It seemed like she was going to go on lecture mode, but she stopped. She stared at him a moment, and after her eyes danced up and down his face, she let out a soft sigh and settled back down in her seat.
“Just, you’re over thinking this,” Jazz finally managed, “Sam had to pick up Tucker and you know how he’s always late for everything. I wouldn’t be surprised if they knock on that door in the next few minutes, bickering like they always do.”
Danny picked at the end of binder. It fit snuggly against his skin. It felt different from his usual binders, having been made water-proof for days at the pool. Like today. Where his friends were supposed to be here fifteen minutes ago to go to the water park.
This would be the first time he went to a waterpark like this. Just in a binder and swim trunks. He knew he shouldn’t be nervous. It wasn’t like his friends really cared, but that small ‘what if’ always danced in the back of his head. It was stupid. He knew it was. But anxiety made you think stupid things that weren’t true, and it sucked.
Danny let out an irritated sigh, glaring at the ground. Where were Sam and Tucker? They could make him stop thinking stupid thoughts.
“Hello? Earth to Danny? You’re not an astronaut yet, little brother, so don’t space out on me.”
Shaking his head, he tried to clear his stupid thoughts. He was about to respond, but then he realized-
-Jazz had punned.
Danny eyed her, eyes a bit wide, growing wider at her smug look. She tried to look concerned, eyes attempting to look serious and mouth trying to stay stern. But he knew her better than that. Danny knew that little mischievous glimmer in her eyes, and as much as she as trying to, she couldn’t hide the slight twitching of her lips.
A smile curled on his face without permission, and he couldn’t help but laugh. “What if I need a little space?” He responded, moving towards her.
Her shrug was nonchalant but her eyes were challenging. “Then we’ll planet ‘round that.”
A laugh bubbled out of his throat. It was stupid but he loved it all the same. “Planet ‘round that.” He repeated with a snort. Danny flopped on the couch next to Jazz. “I’ve got to use that one.”
“Seriously, though.” She said, her tone anything but serious. “You’ll probably have to contact us at least once a month or Mom will go into space herself and drag you back.”
“I don’t think that’s how that works.” But he could definitely imagine Mom going into space to make sure he was okay.
“Well, you’ll make it work.” She said with one last shrug, pulling out her book once more. “You’re a Fenton, after all. We can do strange things.” She didn’t expect him to respond, he had to think. Jazz simply went back to her book, ending the conversation on a light tone.
Danny couldn’t help but smile at the confidence she had him in. That he will make it to space. Maybe he could have, if it wasn’t for the whole hybrid thing, but now? He didn’t know, but he was pretty sure they didn’t take freaks into space.
It was a moment before Danny spoke again. “...You know Sam is probably the one holding them up.” He admitted. His voice was much quieter than he intended.
“Oh?” Jazz inquired not evening looking on from her book.
“Yeah.” Danny shifted to lay comfortably on the arm rest. “Tucker just gets his floaties and shorts and, bam!,” He gestured flippantly, “he’s good to go! Sam has to put on her sunglasses, her hat, and this weird cape thing.”
Jazz looked up incredulously, “She still has that?��
“Yep,” He said, laugh in his voice, “ She wants to look dark and mysterious, but in this heat?” He shook his head. As much as Sam wanted to look gothic, Danny worried more about her melting.
“Do you have water?”
Danny arched an eyebrow, “We’ll be at a waterpark.”
“Bottled water.”
Before Danny could come up with a snarky response, Danny heard something from outside. A second later, someone (or someones) was banging on the door, as two voices shouted to one another, their conversation too muffled to hear.
Danny stumbled out of his seat, smile wide on his face. “About time!” He shouted, not even bothering to open the door slowly. Sure enough, Sam and Tucker stood side by side. The two looked a bit startled by where Danny suddenly opened the door.
“Sorry, we’re late.” Sam said, “We were a bit caught up in preparations.”
“We?” Tucker asked, turning to face her, “You were the one who wanted to put on makeup. Makeup! At a pool!” Tucker gestured wildly towards Sam and sure enough, she was wearing bright purple lipstick, and if Danny looked close enough, a hint of eye shadow as well.
“It’s not like I’m actually planning to go into to the water.”
“Splashing!?”
She smirked, “Water proof.”
Tucker groaned in frustration, eying Danny despairingly. “You see what I have to put up with?”
Danny shrugged, smile twitching on his face. “It’s Sam. I didn’t really expect any less.”
As Sam laughed, Tucker groaned, sounding pained. “Why must I be the only normal one?”
“You’re associated with Danny. There’s no such thing as normal.” Jazz added from behind them. Sometime during that discussion,she managed to find three water bottles, a can of sunscreen, a couple towels, and a bag to fit it all in. As Jazz finished zipping up all the items, Danny tried to subtly move his friends out the door. With some skill that must be only given to moms and upperlevel classmen, she managed to stuff all the items in with one zip, hoist the bag on her shoulder, and stride up them before Danny could even close the door.
She perked up and before Danny could protest, shoving the bag his hands, “Since Mom and Dad are working down in the lab-”
“Jazz, we’re fine,” Danny said, cutting her off. “We don’t need all this.”
“I won’t have you three getting dehydrated or burnt.”
“Jaaaaazz,” Danny whined. He ignored his friend’s snickers.
“Daaaaaannyyyy,” Jazz mockingly whined back. He glared at her, but she only stood straighter and refused to let him leave the bag, smug look on her face.
His eyes darted to the bag and then back to Jazz. If he was smarter, he could have figured a way out of carry the thing, but she was watching him like a hawk and his friends were amused borderline restless. Finally, he sighed heavily in defeat. “Fine.”
Jazz clapped her hands together. “Great! Now you three have fun!”
“Jazz.”
“Don’t forget sunscreen!”
Danny started moving out the door. “Jazz, we’re leaving!”
“And remember to take breaks!” She called out, and he could just tell she was hounding him on purpose. “You don’t want to overexer-”
“Goodbye, Jazz!” Danny tried to escape her. He was close too. He almost got the door closed when she managed to catch it.
“Have fun!” Her voice overwhelmingly sugary sweet with that mom tone. He half expected her to get him a lunch box.
“Thanks, now go away!” He called back in the same tone.
Finally, after what seemed like forever, she gave one last wave and went back indoors. As she disappeared, he let his shoulders slump and a heavy sigh out, turning back towards his friends. He couldn’t help but scowl at their cheeky expressions, and he hoped the blush on his face wasn’t too obvious.
“So, are we finally ready to go?” Sam asked, amusement clearly in her voice.
“Yeah, yeah,” He grumbled, “Let’s just get going.”
Tucker continued snickering behind his back. Rolling his eyes, Danny shoved the bag towards him, smirking at his yelp. “Since you seem so happy, why don’t you carry this?”
“No fair!” Tucker grumbled, “It’s your sister who gave it to you. Why don’t you carry it?”
“The bag goes much better with your water wings.”
“...does it?”
“For goodness sakes, here.” Sam grabbed the bag from Tucker and huffed it over her shoulder. “Let’s get a move on. I want to get there before noon, thank you.” She stomped off ahead of them, her dramatic bat cape billowing behind her.
“Hey wait up!” Tucker yelled out, as he awkwardly running to catch up with his floaties on.
Danny followed suit, huffing but smiling despite himself.
He had been stupid to worry. He really should have punched any gender dysphoria he had in the face the moment it started creeping up, but...it was difficult. His friends and family being there helped out. It helped a lot.
Later that day, Tucker wound comment on how well his binder fit him. Danny would blush, rub his neck, and be embarrassed, yet very, very pleased all the same. Sam would comment on how red his cheeks were, Tucker would tease him further, and then Danny would jump in the pool to get away from their wonderfully, stupid smiles.
All in all, it was a good day.

Mon-El of Daxam – Hero’s Journey to Valor - Part 1
The Supergirl Writers know about The Hero’s Journey (Monomyth) steps as described by John Campbell (it is specifically mentioned in the last conversation that Kara and Cat have in season 2).
Mon-El is following all 17 steps through his journey to Valor. I’m going to explain how he does meet them pointing to specific scenes in the episodes. I’m going to divide this in 3 posts and this is Part 1.
I will also make guesses about how Mon-El could achieve the remaining steps of this journey during season 3 for his rise to Valor. It is going to be so awesome!
Btw, his transformation to a better person/ hero includes how to be a productive member of society, find a job and actually be good at it. Not only fighting bad guys.
Keep on reading after the break.
I – DEPARTURE
1 – CALL TO ADVENTURE
‘The hero starts off in a mundane situation of normality from which some information is received that acts as a call to head off into the unknown.’
2x04 ‘Survivors’
Winn tells Mon-El about his powers and explains what a superhero is. “You know, you go out there, you fight crime, save people, wear a costume. Superhero.” Mon-El asks about he name and the suit and says that Winn should do that for him.
2x05 ‘Crossfire’
Kara prepares Mon-El for his first day of work. She also asks him to wear glasses like she does. “Maybe someday you will want to help people the way I do. In which case, these will come in handy. So no one knows Mon-El is Mike.”
2x09 ‘Supergirl lives’
Kara decides to go to Slaver’s Moon and give instructions to Mon-El. “I’m going in there.” “We don’t know what’s on the other side.” “Izzy’s on the other side and that’s all that matters.”
2 – REFUSAL OF CALL
‘Often when the call is given, the future hero refuses to heed it. This may be from a sense of duty or obligation, fear, insecurity, a sense of inadequacy, etc.’
2x05 ‘Crossfire’
“I am trying to help you fit in and you keep messing it up.” “Okay, I’m trying very hard to be Mike, okay? But it is not as easy as you make it sound, Kara. I’m used to doing my own thing.” “Well, you don’t do your own thing here. You do my thing.” “Um, okay. And if I don’t want to do your thing?” “Then find another mentor.”
2x06 ‘Changing’
“I’m training you so that, one day, if you are so inclined, you can make a difference.” “And what if that’s not me?” “Sure it is.”
“Are you kidding me? This is how you’re using your powers? As muscle for hire?” “It’s a living. A temporary living.” “You’re supposed to help people. You cannot use your powers for money.” “Why? Don’t you?” “Absolutely not!” “Well, that’s a missed opportunity, because…” “This goes against everything we stand for.” “Um, everything you stand for. Look, I never said I wanted to save the world. Things in this world cost money, and if I can make a few bucks using my powers, why shouldn’t I?” “Okay, I get it.” “What?” “No. Don’t. You are so selfish.” (…) “Okay, I may have your powers but I don’t have this innate desire to go leaping into trouble. But that doesn’t make me a bad person, all right?” “It kind of does.” “No, it doesn’t. You’re no saint, Kara Zor-El!” (…) “And you are no hero. I thought you could be, but I was wrong.”
2x09 ‘Supergirl lives’
Kara and Mon-El find out that they do not have powers in Slaver’s Moon. Mon-El is thinking about saving themselves, going back and getting help. Kara is focused on saving Izzy and the others.
“So, we’re stuck in the most dangerous planet in the galaxy. We don’t have our powers, and you’re optimistic how?” “Because they need us to be.” “See, this is what I’ve been telling you, Kara. You know, if you go looking for trouble, you will always find it. And you do. You’re like the winner at it.” “That’s what heroes do. They fight. They don’t sit and hide in a bar because it’s easier than getting involved.” “I’m not hiding, I’m being smart. It’s a dangerous universe. And why do you have to be the one who saves everyone every time?” “Because our worlds may have been destroyed, but we were spared for a reason.” “Uh, luck.” “I refuse to believe that.”
3 – SUPERNATURAL AID
‘Once the hero has committed to the quest, consciously or unconsciously, his or her guide and magical helper appears, or becomes known.’
2x04 ‘Survivors’
“I asked the DEO to release you into my custody.” “Really? Why?” “I wasn’t sent to planet Earth to be a hero. I was sent to protect my cousin. To teach him and keep him safe. And I never got to fulfill that purpose. So, in a weird way, helping you, it gives me another chance to do that.” “Who would have thought? A boy from Daxam and a girl from Krypton, working together.” (…) “I’m in your hands, Kara.”
2x05 ‘Crossfire’
“I was trying to impose those choices on you because when you landed I was just so excited to have someone to take under my wing to look after.” (…) “Your life here on Earth is going to be very different from mine, and that’s fine. That’s great.” “So, does this mean I don’t need to get a job?” “You still need to get a job.” “Right.” “But just pick something that you like. And I’ll be here to help you, however you need me to. That’s what a real mentor does.”
2x06 ‘Changing’
“At least, let me train you. You have all these powers and you’re not learning how to control them.” “I can control things.” “That’s dangerous. You have to know how to” (…) “I’ll make a trade with you. You drink this drink, and I will train with you.” (…) “And, ha! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! You have to train with me now! (groans) Tomorrow.”
“This city could really use a hero right about now.” “Fighting rampaging creatures isn’t on my resume.” “Oh, that’s right. Kara told me. Uh, beating people up for money is though, right?” “Hey, here’s an idea. Why don’t you go believe in somebody else, Alex? Thanks.” “I don’t believe in you, Mon-El. I suspect you’re a coward, and that you would run at the first sign of danger. My sister, she’s the one who believes in you. That’s why she’s so upset with you all the time. She thinks you have potential. To make a difference, like she does. To be a hero.” “I don’t know how.” “You can start by standing up. Like the rest of us.”
2x09 ‘Supergirl lives’
“I believe you keep fighting. Whether you’re stuck on another world, whether or not you have your powers, you never give in.”
4 – CROSSING FIRST THRESHOLD
‘This is the point where the person actually crosses into the field of adventure, leaving the known limits of his or her world and venturing into an unknown and dangerous realm where the rules and limits are not known.’
2x05 ‘Crossfire’
Mon-El tries to fight the thieves during L*na’s party but he is knocked out.
2x06 ‘Changing’
Mon-El shows up to fight Parasite and saves a little girl.
5 – BELLY OF THE WHALE
‘The belly of the whale represents the final separation from the hero’s known world and self. By entering this stage, the person shows their willingness to undergo a metamorphosis.’
2x06 ‘Changing’
Mon-El stops when he notices a coughing person in the street. “Hey, can I help you? I’m trying to be better, so I’d love to help out.” Mon-El is then captured. “Welcome to Cadmus.”
2x09 ‘Supergirl lives’
Mon-El takes a job at the bar. Later he shows up at Kara’s work and convinces her to let him help her finding the missing girl.
Mon-El crosses the portal and saves Kara from another alien that was going to fire her. “What’re you doing here?” “Uh, I thought you might need my help.”
“So what brings you by?” (…) “I was wrong. That’s what I wanted to…” “About? Because the list of things you were wrong about is… it’s long.” “It’s a long list. Um, ah… About getting involved. And then I saw you with those people and… There wasn’t much to inspire me on Daxam.” “What about the Prince?” “He wasn’t worth admiring. But I wanna be. So that’s the next thing. I’ve made a decision” “Sounds decisive.” “It’s very decisive. I wanna be a superhero.” “Say what?” “Like you. With a name and an outfit, maybe a cape.” “You want the suit.” “No. No. I mean, yes, I want the suit, but no, I wanna… I wanna get my hands dirty, you know, like… I wanna do something.” “ You’re serious?” “Yeah.” “If you take this road, easy is over.” “Well, I don’t want easy.” “Cape can get heavy sometimes.” “I want a heavy cape.” “Come on.” “I wanna help you keep the world spinning. To prove that I was spared for a reason.” “You’re gonna have to listen to me” “Pfft. I will listen to you. I will, I will. This time I will.”
————————————————
In 2x03 to 2x09 Mon-El is between stages I (Departure) and II (Initiation).
Once Mon-El declares his intention of being a superhero and help others, he abandons stage I. In 2x10 to 2x22 he is completely in stage II.
So this is the end of Part 1. I will post Parts 2 and 3 when they are ready, but 2 is long and will take time.
