Title: Not a Diva

Ship: The Angels Baptist

Words: 1,244

Nadine walked swiftly down the bunkers corridors, past crates and boxes of supplies. Any members or chosen in the way basically flung themselves to the walls to make room as he passed by, none of them wanting to be in the way of Eden Gate's guard dog. his brown eyes stayed focused ahead of him, not giving any of them a glance as he made his way to one of the main rooms of John's bunker. He was taking stock today and he'd checked all the others except for this one, when he was done he planned to go to Faith's bunker and then Jacob's after that.

He wasn't pleased to see three chosen meandering in the large room, they glanced at him as he entered but quickly turned away when they saw it was him. Nadine ignored them, beginning to pick up lists sat atop the crates and taking note of the supplies. The children's loud talking became hushed as they spoke among themself and Nadine ignored it as he went on with his work.

Their hushed talking grew clearer as Nadine walked closer, trying to focus on the lists of inventory and not the chosen's words. He caught whispers of John's name and not so flattering words that made his jaw clench, a year ago he would have broken their jaw already but Joseph hadn't been too fond of them putting members of their project into the infirmary. So he held himself back and walked onto the next crate.

"He can be a bit of a Diva, don't know why the father let's him act like that, he makes us look like a joke,"

Oh. Oh, That was it.

"Do you want to repeat that?" Nadine asked, slamming the paper down on the crate and sharply turning around to face the three men. Anger burned clearly in his eyes and the men collectively straightened their backs and looked at him with wide eyes.

"Brother Dean–"

"John is not a diva that walks around with his head up his ass, he's smart, he's fucking brilliant. Everything he does has a meaning. Did you forget none of this would be possible without him, everyone here in this project owes John everything. Joseph wouldn't have gotten this off of the ground without him," Nadine nearly snarled, stalking towards them and stopping in front of the one they took as the main instigator. He shook his head uselessly, mouth opening and closing as the others looked on anxiously.

"I didn't mean anything by it—" He croaked out, shrinking under Nadine's intense gaze and looming figure. Nadine doesn't let him finish, not caring for their excuses.

"You did. You all think he can't hear you but he can and he doesn't deserve to listen to all the shit that comes out of your mouths. He gave away everything to be here, to make this happen. He deserves a little more gratitude than he's getting so maybe next time show a little fucking respect." He growls and the men all nod in unison. They looked like sad excuses for men standing there, cowering with their tails between their legs. It only served to make Dean angrier.

"We're sorry brother Dean," They all sputtered, but the apology fell on the wrong ears and Dean shook his head in disgust at their use of 'brother'. They weren't his family, not if they spoke about John like that.

"Get out of here, maybe do your job instead of gossiping like teenagers," Nadine snapped, glaring the men down as they scurried away from him with fearful eyes. Maybe they'd go to their actual posts and get some work done. Useless idiots.

With a sigh heavier than Saturn Nadine turns and stalks towards the wall, grabbing the overall stock clipboard and angrily scrawling down the supplies he noted. Footsteps alert him to someone entering the large room and he turns, ready to bark at any underlings that came in but stopping short at the sight of a familiar coat and vulnerable blue eyes.

Nadine gives an acknowledging nod to the youngest Seed, the man giving a slower more tentative one in return. His eyes were swimming with something Nadine couldn't place this far away so he simply turned back to the wall and returned the clipboard to its place.

"How was Joseph?" He asks, knowing John had gone to see his brother an hour prior.

"... He was fine," John's voice is soft, thoughtful. It makes Dean turn and watch as the Herald walked further into the room, looking off down the corridor the three chosen had left. Nadine's stomach dropped, he really hoped John hadn't heard that conversation, or anything the three idiots had said about him. But with the upturned curve of his brow Nadine could tell he most likely had.

"Are you alright?" He asks gently, John nodding softly and turning to meet his gaze.

"I heard what you said…" John paused, searching Nadine's eyes for something before a pained smile stretched across his face, "No one's ever talked about me that way before," He laughed humourlessly, avoiding Nadine's eyes and turning to inspect one of the crates. It made Nadine's heart twist painfully to see him in such a state.

"I'm sure Joseph–"

"No."

Silence.

Nadine bit his tongue, the flat and sharp way John replied making him regret his words. He wanted nothing more than to reach out and hold the Herald of Holland Valley, to soothe that look on his face and ease the pain swimming underneath his cracking facade.

"I'm sorry," Nadine murmured instead, stepping forward so they were side by side but not daring to move any closer.

"Why are you sorry?" John asked with another dry laugh, looking over at the other man who stared down at the crate with bubbling anger in his eyes.

"You don't get enough credit,"

"I'm not doing any of this for credit Nadine, I'm doing it for Joseph,"

"I know,"

More silence. John sighed, leaning closer and resting his temple against Nadine's shoulder. Nadine gently resting his head against his, letting him know the touch was welcomed. Nadine took that moment to take hold of John's hand, interlocking their fingers and giving a reassuring squeeze. John smiled faintly, eyes squeezing shut for a moment and just soaking up the warmth and the unspoken understanding.

Nadine hoped he knew even if no one else was, he was grateful for everything John did and that he would be there for him no matter what happened. He'd follow John to the ends of hell and back if that's where his path took him, he'd turn his back on Joseph and the project in an instance for the Baptist and he felt no shame for it. Everything Joseph gave him could not compare to the peace John gave him every day.

"Are you done for today?" John's voice is quiet when he speaks, not wanting to disrupt the calmness in the air.

"If you want me to be I am," Nadine answers without hesitation and John chuckles, this time it's a genuine sound and Nadine smiles. John removes his head from Nadine's shoulder but keeps their hands intertwined, looking down at them and gently caressing Nadine's knuckles with his thumb.

"I think we both deserve some rest," John murmurs, blue eyes meeting Nadine's soft brown ones with a tiredness Nadine could feel in his own bones.

"I think so too,"

"Let's go home."

Am I the only one who was bothered by the fact that the men were the ones not really effected by their fears and had to save the women?? Idk I love brainy and jonn but that just rubs me the wrong way lol same with karas dad having to make her hope again 🙄

I know I’ve had moments like that while watching this show! This wasn’t necessarily one for me. I didn’t really see them as saving everyone. I thought it was interesting that Brainy seemed unaffected in everyone’s fear visions, bc to me it made it seem like everyone sees Brainy as being fearless. At the same time though, I wasn’t a huge fan that his fear was balloons when compared to everyone else’s. I think J’onn’s didn’t come off as impactful (and his scene felt very short compared to everyone else) as it should have. He was seeing everyone’s fear visions on that ship and I can only imagine the hurt he would’ve felt and his reaction to it felt very fatherly to me. And it kind of felt he gave them all the opportunity to save themselves. Like yes, he took out the phantom but they each still had to pull themselves out a bit.

But I doubt you’re the only one! They definitely did give Brainy and J’onn’s fear visions a different tone so it is understandable that that might not come off favorably for them.

For Kara and her dad, I feel like it might have been better if we saw more of Kara’s fear visions. We saw her telling Zor-el not to give up a lot, and that she was going to keep fighting. But we didn’t really see her fight a lot, so seeing her give up hope didn’t hold the same kind of impact for me as it would have if I saw her fighting her heart out over and over. So I would agree seeing her father be the voice of hope in the last moments before being saved was a bit disappointing

john b playing with brownie’s ears whenever he’s anxious —concept anon

STOP PLEASE I LOVE BROWNIE AND JOHN B SO MUCH

also jonn b just holding the little bear tighter and tighter against him when he’s upset or something bc its embrace reminds him of his father

the pogues knowing you never tease him whenever he’s hugging brownie bc they know he’s really upset when he’s doing that so they’re instantly worried

and don’t even get me started on if he loses brownie — that boy would tear apart the island to find it only for it to be in his bedroom after it accidentally fell of the side of his bed

#i’m living for john b and brownie #it’s just #a teddy bear for a teddy bear #it just FITS #concept anon <3 #lizzie answers

What are your top five book quotes?

I have taken FOREVER with this question and I’m so sorry. I hope you see it. It’s an impossible question, but I needed to attempt it. The thing is I can’t remember everything I’ve read and loved at one time. Also I was so well-read as a kid, and I find it kind of embarrassing how little I’ve read in more recent years. Still love books, though. I’m going to try and hit a mix of the kinds of things that bring me joy/meaning.

“I realized that, sure, I was a Spokane Indian. I belonged to that tribe. But I also belonged to the tribe of American immigrants. And to the tribe of basketball players. And to the tribe of bookworms. And the tribe of cartoonists. And the tribe of chronic masturbators. And the tribe of teenage boys. And the tribe of small-town kids. And the tribe of Pacific Northwesterners. And the tribe of tortilla chips-and-salsa lovers. And the tribe of poverty. And the tribe of funeral-goers. And the tribe of beloved sons. And the tribe of boys who really missed their best friends. It was a huge realization. And that's when I knew that I was going to be okay.“ --Sherman Alexie, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian

I read this when I was fourteen and the way Alexie writes about the human need for belonging and love hasn’t let go of my brain.

“After I grew up, I heard the chant of Fa Mu Lan, the girl who took her father’s place in battle…. I had forgotten this chant that was once mine, given me by my mother, who may not have known its power to remind. She said I would grow up a wife and a slave, but she taught me the song of the warrior woman, Fa Mu Lan. I would have to grow up a warrior woman.” --Maxine Hong Kingston, The Woman Warrior

All of the content warnings for The Woman Warrior, but there’s this sense of longing for independence that Kingston spins into these romantic narratives. Plus I need to read more books written by Asian women. Or Asian authors in general. It’s a part of my identity I don’t get to see a lot in books.

“’What the hell is Havarti?’ Gus asked.

‘Semisoft Danish cow cheese,’ Casey said. ‘You’ll love it.’

‘That… sounds disgusting,’ Gus said. ‘You should have just called it cheese. I don’t know if I can eat cheese from a semisoft Danish cow.’” -- TJ Klune, How to Be a Normal Person

Ridiculous comedy is extremely important to me. I love this book more than I can explain. Gus is so easy to love, and he doesn’t realize it.

“’He is not alone,’ Marlie objected. ‘Rowan is with him.’ Val and Ellis stared at her as though she were mad.

‘Of what use to Jonn is a scared weakling like Rowan?’ Val demanded. ‘He needs a strong, courageous companion to—’

‘He had five strong, courageous companions.’

Allun lifted his head and looked her straight in the eye. ‘They all ran away.’”--Emily Rodda, Rowan of Rin

Look. This is a kid’s book. It’s a total predictable cliche: “weakling outcast kid was the hero all along.” But Rowan’s gentleness is portrayed as his Great Strength. As a masculine-identifying person, that’s a message I still need all the time. He doesn’t go through a Change to become Socially Acceptable. He was always like this, and it turns out to be what they need.

“Perhaps home is not a place but an irrevocable condition.” --James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room

I don’t have an addendum to this one.

#books #sherman alexie #maxine hong kingston #tj klune #emily rodda #james baldwin #anyone feel free to send me recs #I have a list but open to suggestions

Wise Words - John B x Reader

Warnings: Cursing, Cliche, Father Absence, Not Edited

Summary: John B and your relationship had gone through a lot, the three most important times you needed each other the instance was sealed by wise words.

Word Count: 1.6k

A/N: Hey y’all sorry I didn’t post for a while, I was on vacation and now school is starting again so I need to prepare, however I have a Rafe imagine coming soon as well, I love you all so much and have an amazing rest of your week!

(Gif by toesure!!) (There is a KeepReading bar)

The Pogue Group was not a normal group. It had a bond that couldn’t be broken. It was like a mini family in the midst of the crazy land that was the Outer Banks. You came along just before sixth grade. You had lived on the island your whole life but you were homeschooled so you never really had too many friends. And you were okay with that. You mother stayed home with you while she worked online and your father worked down by the boardwalk. Your father had a brother, his name was...actually you didn’t know his first name. You just called him Uncle Shoupe. You thought he had the best job in the world so you would go down to the station and just spend as much time there as you could. So there you were, watching The Simpsons on your phone, waiting for your mom to take you home or until you were tired enough to fall asleep on one of the chairs. It was normal until you heard a boy yelling at your uncle to let him go. You looked up and saw this blonde boy who looked around your age thrusting into your uncle’s arms. Raising your eyebrows you watched as Sheriff Peterkins came in and started to calm the boy down to explain everything. Once he was half way through the story of how he was just “jumping a fence”, another boy with shaggy short brown hair walked in and demanded his friend be let go. It was a funny situation really, two boys around sixth grade trying to fight two cops. Before you knew it a snicker left your lips and everyone looked at you. You just sat there. Until you coughed a little and smiled sheepishly. The boy with brown hair was still looking at you and had stopped yelling. He came over and sat by your side.

“What’s so funny?”

“Nothin’ “

“Uh Hu”

“Wanna watch The Simpsons with me?” The boy looked at JJ who was staring in disbelief at how John B could just leave him for a girl who snickered at their attempts to be left alone.

“Sure, I’m John B by the way”

“(Y/N), but why not just John?”

“Because, now start the episode,”

Soon, you were introduced to the rest of the group and school started. The Pogues were formed. Sleepovers together every Saturday, turned into parties and illegal drinking, and those turned into living at John B’s. Your parents didn’t mind if they were being all that honest, you got all A’s and as long as you stayed at their house on school nights and didn’t get arrested they thought life was good. Staying at John B’s took its own path in your relationship. Before anyone knew it, you both were dating. This was your third year together, how did you last that long? A lot of perseverance and tests for your faith in the relationship.

The First Time

You walked into the Chateau after spending a girls night with your mom. No matter how old you would get, those were always your favorite nights.

“AYO AYO GOOD MORNING MY PE-” You paused after you saw Jonn B walk out of his room looking like a mess. “Hey baby what’s wrong?” You said holding out your arms to see how bad it was. If John B wouldn’t hug you then something was very wrong. And after around five seconds where all he did was shift his movements so he was on the door frame. He started to sniffle, wiping his nose he just shrugged. “No, don’t give me that what’s up?” After those words left your mouth he started to cry. John B never cried. He started mumbling nonsense still on the door frame with you leaning against the kitchen counter. “I can’t hear you baby”

“HE'S GONE” He looked up at you while he yelled. His eyes were bloodshot, from alcohol or crying you couldn’t tell.

“Who’s gone JB?” You tried to stay calm because he obviously wasn’t.

“My dad…” Those words hit you like a ton of bricks. Big John. Just gone?

“Okay, it’s okay,”

“No, no it’s not “okay”, ITS I DON’T EVEN KNOW (Y/N)” There was silence, you didn’t know how to comfort him. So far, you hadn’t made a move to hug him. You were too scared to see what would happen. After what felt like 10 minutes, John B spoke again. “Everyone says he’s probably dead,”

“Do you think he is?”

“No. He can’t just be dead,” At that point you walked slowly to him and hugged him. He didn’t hug back, but to be honest, you didn’t plan for him to hug you back. You just slowly shifted him to where you were both lying on his bed. Playing with his curly brown hair you hummed a song lightly. You two stayed there for maybe an hour. No words where said, what could you say? “Do you think he is?” The words John B spoke were barely above a whisper, too scared for your answer.

“I don’t know. I will help you to the best of my abilities to help you find him. Anything that can help I’ll do, but you need to understand that he could be gone. John, don’t prepare for failure, but don’t expect success okay?” At your words he turned around to face you, his eyes were glossed over. The picture of him laying in front of you right now was too much not to hug him impossibly tighter. At some point he needed to know someone was there.

The Second Time

You were sitting in the Chateau, trying to make a rainbow loom bracelet from the kit you found in your room from when you were 8. Fiddling with the bands you almost scream as the screen door shuts from outside. All the other Pogues were talking about something you couldn’t quite make out, stepping into the porch they all turned to you.

“Um….” You say not really sure what to make of the scene in front of you. “I’m going to go back inside and work on my rainbow loom, y’all have fun out here and don’t smoke too much,” You finished. That was meant for the whole group but you were mostly looking at JJ.

“Yeah, yeah,” He said while motioning you to go back inside. They didn’t tell you things sometimes, they knew each other longer and you accepted that. It wasn’t a big deal, if it was you would find out sooner or later. It must have been an hour before John B walked back in the house.

“I don’t know how to say this….” You gulped at his words, he couldn’t be break- “I may or may not have snuck into that dead guys hotel and found a bunch of cash and there could or could not be some gold and-”

“JOHN YOU BETTER RUN” You yelled. He snuck into a hotel room, found money, and there could be gold.

“OKAY OKAY HOLD UP!! That could be why my Dad disappeared and maybe if I find the gold I’ll find him.” He said holding his hands up in defense, trying to explain the reasoning behind his idiotic decisions.

“Fine. Fine. I support you and all that you do. John B you know that. But I’m not putting myself in that position okay? I’ll help as much as I can while staying in this house,” You finished going into hugging him.

“I love you” John B mumbled into your shoulder while you pulled him tighter into your chest.

“I know, and hey this is amazing, I know what’s going on in your head though, all I can say from now on is never prepare for failure but don’t expect success.”

“Wise words (Y/L/N)”

“What can I say? I try” You say giggling into his shoulder. He laughed along releasing you from the hug and bringing you back outside with the rest of the other Pouges.

Not The First Or The Last Time

“(Y/N) IF YOU DON’T GET DOWN HERE IN ABOUT TEN SECONDS IM STARTING THE VAN WITHOUT YOU” John B yelled from your front door. It was always unlocked, everyone on the island knew that. You sniffled a little from your room walking to the steps and going half way so John B could see your frame. After he caught a glimpse of your swollen eyes and crimson cheeks he rushed to give you a hug. You hugged back, tighter than he was hugging you. “What happened baby?” John asked, giving you a worried look. You stuttered out your words, trying not to cry.

“He- He’s- He’s gone….”

“Your dad?”

“Mhm….Mom said he was in bed when she fell asleep last night but by the morning he was gone...no possessions were taken, no note, just our boat….” John B’s breath hitched. You knew what he was thinking and frankly you thought about it too. He probably died just like John B’s dad did.

“It’s okay baby, it’s all good. We’re gonna find him and when we do it’s all gonna be just fine,”

“What if we don’t find him John B??? He could just be gone…”

“Hey hey hey, you’re preparing for failure…”

“Don’t prepare for failure but don’t expect success.” You said going in for another hug. All you wanted was for everything to be alright, you knew it wouldn’t work like that though. So all you could do is hold on to the next best thing.

“Wise words (Y/N), Wise Words”

A/N: I hope y’all enjoyed!! <3

I'm back with more viking au questions, because I'm a bit excited. Is it a one shot? Planning on both being Scandinavian? Where is it set?

It's likely a multichapter, and Kara is Scandanavian but Lena is Anglo-Saxon. And I'm probably going to set it in Wessex or Mercia!

Here's a lil sneak peek

Two of the male warriors are engaged in some kind of game of strength, wrestling each other drunkenly to the ground while the rest of the clan cheers them on, and while Lex is watching the ruckus with a neutral expression Lena has become accustomed to reading his moods from the smallest of cues. His contempt for the Norse is evident from his place at the centre of the high table.

In Lena's distraction the chair beside her, which had been blissfully empty, is filled in a blur of furs and blonde hair.

It's the woman who had been at Clark Jorelsson's side this morning. The one whose intense gaze had lit Lena aflame.

"Gods, I'm thirsty," the woman says, grabbing the nearest mug of ale and downing half its contents in a few moments. She's panting for breath when she finishes, a thin line of foam gracing her upper lip as she grins. "What I wouldn't give for some good honey-mead!"

"Is our ale not sufficient?" Lena says delicately. She folds one leg over the other, and the flaxen-haired woman's eyes dart down to track the movement. They stay there perhaps a shade longer than is proper.

"Simply an unfamiliar brew. But I am a far-traveller. I search out new experiences," the woman says, setting the mug down with more restraint than her brethren – these Norse are all so loud, so exuberant in their feasting. Singing and shouting and fighting with each other for sport. This woman is quieter than the rest, despite her warrior's stature. Her presence is a balm.

Lena hums. "And here I thought all Norse warriors were simply machines of war."

The woman snorts. "Only when we have to be."

"Tell that to the monks at Lindisfarne."

The woman's grin widens. She stares at Lena for a moment, seeming delighted despite Lena's borderline antagonism, and finally she holds out an arm to clasp.

"I am Kara Zorelsdottir. Clark is my kin."

"Ah. So you are to be my kin too, then?" Lena says, her own words tasting bitter in her mouth. The reminder of a marriage she didn't agree to. She glances across the room, where Clark is sitting slumped in his seat with a mug of ale in each hand. He looks about as thrilled with the situation as Lena feels.

She takes Kara's arm. The blonde's grip is firm and strong; the defined muscles of her forearm shift under Lena's hand, hidden by her furs. Kara's smile dims a little at Lena's words.

"That seems to be the way of it."

Kara's grip loosens. Lena finds she's loath to let it go, but she releases Kara's arm and settles back in her seat.

"My clan tries to make violence a last resort," Kara explains. When a passing servant moves to refill her mug as he passes, Kara holds a hand over it with a shake of the head. "Which is why we left home. Got tired of all the raiding. We just want to live in peace."

"And my marriage to your cousin is what will seal it for you," Lena says. Kara's mouth forms a tight line. The sputtering torches and roaring hearth fire in the centre of the hall flicker across her face, throwing her handsome features into stark detail.

"That’s Jonn’s hope."

"Clark himself doesn’t seem to hold the same hope," Lena notes with a nod in his direction. Kara chuckles humorlessly.

"He has a beloved back in Norway. Her father disapproved of the match, but he still pines for her." Kara takes an idle swig of her half-full ale. "I think he’s crazy for not jumping for joy when he saw you."

Lena's heart kicks a fierce drumbeat in her chest.

"Do you?" Lena says, managing to keep her voice even with great effort. Kara shrugs. She pulls a coin from her pocket, flicking it between her fingers in a thoughtless movement that Lena is sure took much practice.

"I told him if he’s to have a chosen match, at least he got the most beautiful one in Christendom."

Lena's whole body flushes with pleasant warmth.

Kara has always had love, Lena has not.

You know I'm all supportive of not liking a character, RAO knows there's a few I'm not a fan of. But what bothers me is when people only focus on half the narrative of the character they don't like. When the rest of the characters narrative is usually the reason and explaination for why they are the way they are.

Take for instance the comparison of Kara Danvers and Lena Luthor. People who don't like Lena but adore Kara will throw out that Kara is a literal ray of sunshine who has suffered trauma and doesn't whine about it, while Lena has no right to be moody because she's privileged.

Ok, so there's quite a bit to address here.

First off, we (and the show) like to refer to Kara as 'sunny Danvers' and how she is a consistent ball of sunshine that only ever sees the best In people. Now I don't know what fan fic the people who think this have been reading but that just isn't true and the show shows us consistently that it isn't true.

Kara has been seen to be moody, depressed, judgmental, have prejudice, be hot headed, refusing to listen and seeing herself as superior whilst giving herself authority over things and people and feeling put out when people do things she personally doesn't agree with or hasn't sanctioned. But thats OK! It shows that Kara is just as flawed and normal as anybody else.

People will say that Kara lost her planet, her family, her race and she didn't let it get to her, but Lena is kept out of a secret or people don't like her and suddenly she's an awful person?

Erm... Ok, so I've mentioned this before but it's worth stating again. Kara has been adored and loved and privileged since the day she was born. Kara belongs to 'the noble house of El' an elite family of Krypton. Her father was a scientist and her mother was basically the head or the judicial system and her aunt a general. She was also well protected. So yeah, Kara was extremely privileged and had a superior social standing on Krypton. Yes her planet exploded but do you know what happened after that? People still continued to love and adore her. She immediately got placed with a loving family who only wanted to take care of her, even if she was rejected by Kal El. The Danvers weren't exactly poor either. Kara had a loving adopted family to help her through her trauma. Then she grew up to be adored by her Superfriends, was welcomed at the DEO by Jonn who took it upon himself to be her space dad and he always protected her and Alex even when they didnt know. People fall for Kara all the time and fight for her affections. She may have had a difficult relationship with Cat but even she was a mentor and was shown to love Kara, both as Kara and as Supergirl. She's also adored by the world because she's Supergirl, the amount of love and attention she gets shows this. She also has a devoted sister who's life is made up of protecting her. Plus she has a devoted billionaire best friend willing to do anything for her and put her self in danger protecting her because she doesn't know Kara doesn't need protecting. Kara also has statues dedicated to her and has friends from the 31st century who told her what a legend she is in the future. She's had cults dedicated to worshipping her, she has an abundance of Superfriends that adore her. It's an awful lot of love, devotion and respect since the day she landed. So Kara may have trauma but she has all the love in the world to help her through it. Oh it also doesn't hurt that she is a blonde haired, blue eyed Caucasian white woman. I wouldn't normally mention skin color but the show made a point of Jonn mentioning this. Kara didn't believe prejudice against aliens happened much anymore because she (the white woman) didn't experience it.

I'd like to point out that Kara's race survived, she also still has her mother.

Now let's look Lena, Lena was traumatized aged 4 by watching her own mother die and grew up believing it to be her fault. She was taken in by a horrible family she didn't even learn was biologically hers until after her father died and her brother had gone insane. Her father may have liked her but he has also been shown to be an alcoholic, her step mother made it abundantly clear she didn't want Lena around and has kidnapped her several times and though she was dedicated to Lex his diaries show that he saw her as a play thing even when they were children. So unlike Kara, Lena didn't get placed with a loving family. People are so focused on Lena's billionaire status, money doesn't equal love and happiness. Lena has been treated horribly for most of her life. It doesn't matter she went to the best school, maybe ate from a silver platter, she was emotionally abused and not wanted. The total opposite of Kara. Kara got a devoted adopted mother and father and a wonderful devoted sister. Lena got a horrible adopted mother, an alcoholic father and an insane, manipulative, mass murdering, genocidal brother. Lena had to watch her brother decend into madness to the point SHE not Superman managed to set him up and get him caught. But Lena has to suffer for what Lex did. She is cursed by her own name no matter how good she is. Kara's family sat back knowing Krypton would be destroyed, her family nearly enslaved the human race with tech ger father created (Astra and Non). But no one holds it against Kara/Supergirl. Lena's mother and brother try to kill aliens and Lena is instanty under suspicion because she simply breathes. Kara's family basically invade but no one sees Kara any differently. Why? Because she isn't her family, a sentiment no matter how many times she proves it Lena will never earn.

Lena is constantly shot at, treated like shit, manipulated, people try to asssinate her and whenever she does something good or saves the world it's only ever Supergirl that gets acknowledged for it. She even tries to help people and cure Cancer but is constantly taken advantage of. Even when she's trying to cure cancer she's condemned because the tech is used (not by her) for nerfarious purposes. She can't even try to cure cancer without being shat on. She had different opinions to the Superfriends and that makes her instantly bad not only to haters but also the Superfriends. She's framed, footage of 'her' shows her getting Kryptonite and no one cares to hear Kara protest her innocence. But does anyone remember Bizarro? Red daughter? Yeah the Superfriends never doubted for a second that that wasn't Kara. Instant love and respect no matter what, something Lena only had Kara for . Until she didn't.

Kara was the one person to show trust in Lena. That was until Lena did something Kara didn't like, approve of and suddenly felt threatened by even though Lena is one of the very few who has never hurt or threatened her and has always believed in her. That actually included Alex and Jonn. Kara felt threatened because Lena had Kryptonite, but never gave a rats ass that Jonn used Kryptonian cuffs on her, owned a Kryptonian knife, or that Alex shot her out of the sky with Kryptonite bullets and owns a Kryptonite sword. She didn't even care the DEO had a stash of Kryptonite until Kal El kicked up a fuss. The Superfriends, ALL of them have even doubted Kara's ability to succeed at some point. Lena on the other hand has done nothing but encourage her. So Kara was so quick to let fear and prejudice cloud her judgement.

Kara had been treated like she was in charge of all things for so long she started to think she was. Legally having Kryptonite wasn't against the law, it's never been stated that it was. Kara also thought she had the right to tell a civilian business woman that she had to give up her property to Kara's sister all because Kara said so??? This still bothers me. Kara actually doesn't have this kind of authority. Lena works with the DEO out of curtesy. She doesn't actually have to be there.

Kara also decided she had the right to go behind Lena's back and use her relationship, the very one Kara pushed her into against her. It wouldn't surprise me if Lena immediately starts to wonder why she was pushed to date Superman and Supergirls bestie, knowing full well (thanks James, slow clap to you) that Kara used James to spy on her. These things are all ignored because all people want to see is 'bad Luthor with different opinions' and 'sunny Danvers'. People say Lena is portrayed as the victim, but Kara does a good job or making herself one to.

Kara has also been shown to doubt Lena when it comes to HER personally, but in regards to others she tells them that Lena is good and she's usually right . Kara isn't consistent here.

Kara has NEVER had to work to get anyone's love or trust. She just gets given it. The only time she's had to work for it is after the red k incident, and the red daughter charade. But she got it back pretty quick. Lena on the hand constantly works to have trust, she knows she won't get love, but one rumour and it all goes to shit. Lena doesn't have the same support network that Kara does. When Lena makes a mistake she doesn't have lots of people to go to like Kara does. Ultimately the super friends are KARA'S friends first and foremost. Even her boyfriend put Kara first. Lena even has to work just to get respect from Kara and James at work, because neither thought they had to give that to her. Ultimately she got it from Kara who apologized and Lena instantly forgave her because she always does, but she was basically driven out of Cat Co by James. Notice after he refused to do the Lockwood interview and embarrassed her at Thanksgiving also rejecting her love she stopped going to Cat Co and focused her attention at L Corp. Which was sad because remember how excited she was to run Cat Co with Kara?

So Lena will feel betrayed by the secret? I personally think she has ever reason to. She's been used, manipulated, has already been betrayed, judged and kept in the dark by the Superfriends. I'd feel betrayed to. Kara's excuse about it being to protect her because people may use her or hurt her became redundant the moment Lillian told her she knew. It would have been safer for Lena to know at that point so she COULDN'T be used. Lena also had the right to know who she was letting into her life. A choice all the other Superfriends were given the the privilege of making. Lena being around Kara and friends with Supergirl hasn't kept her off people's hit lists. Her not knowing genuinely puts her in more danger.

There's so much more to add but I've made my point. If you're going to mention Kara's trauma DON'T ignore Lena's. Don't ignore the fact that Kara is just given love and respect and people want to protect her and have since the day she was born, whereas Lena has never had that.

Two people with trauma, one who's life is consistently filled with love even when more trauma is happening and one who's life has been full of abuse, assassination attempts, betrayal, being held responsible for others crimes and even being betrayed by the one person who supposedly believes in you. Lena has no such love and devotion to get her through it all.

I type way too slow for my brain. Jumping back a bit, Undead Mitch? What type of undead? Does peter know? Does Mitch know? How did it happen?

!!! I love this AU, because it is so fucking angsty, omg. The premise is that it starts out mostly the same as the pilot. Stiles decides to go looking for a body in the woods after he hears the call come into the radio, and... well. He doesn’t like what he finds.

Stiles is excited when he hears over the radio, because stuff like this never happens in beacon hills, so of course he's going to go out and see what's going on. Except it's worse than Stiles could have ever imagined, far from the thrill he thought it would be.

When he gets there, he follows the flashing lights, hoping for a glimpse of the body. He sees someone holding his father back, and immediately knows something is wrong. he wants to turn back and run home, because there is something horrible waiting for him. But he has to find out, he has to see what has his father so inconsolable.

John tries to stop him when he sees Stiles, but Stiles slips past him and the other deputies and trips on a root and lands face to face with the cold corpse of his brother, eyes blank and unseeing like colored glass, and Stiles screams, and John drags him away kicking and fighting because no! No, that is not possible, it's not him!

Mitch was supposed to come home hours ago, a recent college graduate, home at last. When he was late, both Stiles and John figured he'd hit traffic. Coming from San Francisco, it isn't unlikely.

But no, his brother was murdered, his mangled corpse dumped in the woods like nothing, and Stiles doesn't know why. He needs to know why. John isn't allowed to work the case, but Stiles isn't a deputy yet, and nothing can keep him from digging into his brother's death. he doesn't believe it when the autopsy report rules it an animal attack, because animals don't carve spirals into their prey. A human did this, and made it look like an animal, and Stiles can't imagine the sick individual that would have done this, tries not to imagine how horrifying Mitch's last moments were because nothing that happened to him was post-mortem. He was tortured..

What they don't know yet is that Mitch was bait.

As for whether or not Peter knew.... well.

Mitch got involved with some things he shouldn’t have while in school in New York: Peter. And then the wrong people found out about them. Some of Gerard’s men snatched Mitch right from the airport when he came back to California and tried to get information from Peter, but Mitch is a stubborn bastard and gave them nothing, so they eventually killed him.

But there is no way Peter is going to leave his mate dead in the ground. He’s going to bring him back, and he’s going to kill Gerard and all his men and anyone else who gets in the way.

Mitch digs his way out of the grave and limps his way home, still covered in dirt and blood and looking like a horror movie. It takes him a while to get there, to remember how to be a human. He doesn’t come back all the way at first.

The next day there’s a report of a grave robbing, and Jonn shows up to find it’s his son - his deputies try to keep him away so he doesn’t have to see who it is, but that only makes him more insistent - and it just... who would do this? Hasn’t his family been through enough?

He takes the day off, makes a sizeable dent in the alcohol he keeps for truly low nights - he promised himself and Stiles he would stop drinking, but damn if this isn’t as good an excuse as any, and it’s not like Stiles is home from school, yet, anyway.

John takes to having a few drinks at night, so he’s drunk when Mitch finally makes it some. It’s late when he gets there, the door is locked, so he calls out to them. His voice doesn’t sound right; damaged vocal cords from screaming, probably. But it’s close enough that John thinks he’s hallucinating, and calls Stiles down to make sure. It’s impossible, but he’s drunk enough to hope, desperate for a miracle.

Stiles is too afraid to let him in, because whatever is out there can’t be his brother.

It seems like a cruel trick, and Mitch doesn’t know what happened, his memories are hazy and haven’t all come back yet, but can he please come home? And everything about this situation is wrong, but John hates the way Mitch’s Voice breaks, and he can’t get the door open fast enough, and sure enough, there he is, in the flesh. John just breaks down and hugs him, Mitch too shocked - and still numb, cold with lingering death that hasn’t fully worn off - to return it. the questions can wait until later because his boy is home and that’s all that matters.

Stiles, ever the practical one, barely hanging on by a threat himself, makes Mitch go shower and change into clean clothes. It’s been weeks but his room is still untouched, because neither of them could bare to open the door, And then there’s hugging and crying and Stiles doesn’t care how or why, but Mitch is home again.

Meanwhile Peter has been getting his killing spree on, and when he’s finally finished exactly his vengeance, he’s going to come back for Mitch. Part of him was afraid the spell wouldn’t work, and that might have been some of the reason he stayed away for so long: he didn’t want to know. But there Mitch is, close enough to living.

Bad Girl.

Today, I am overwhelmed with emotion.

Last night, the first thing I saw when I closed my eyes to sleep were headlights. I had dreams where I was in a car crash. Lights coming at me. It definitely wasn't vivid though. It was all a blur. I didn't make anything of it. As the day has passed I’ve felt weirder and weirder. Then, I was reminded that four years ago today, on a fathers day, my friend and mentor died in a car crash. Not even a mile away from our brewery. I can still remember the last thing we did together. It was Alex’s last shift and we all had a huge group hug together before he left. God I loved that team. I loved him.

Things are weird. Most days I’m alright and I think I’ve got a grasp on things. Then the waves come crashing and I feel like I’m floating in the abyss instead of riding the waves as they come. I suppose I am riding this wave, allowing myself to feel what I feel but when I don’t feel well, when I feel like I’m losing my grip, I fight hard as I can to shove it right back down my throat. To keep it together, save it for another, more appropriate time. I wonder when that will be. When I or others around me will allow ourselves to really process and feel. Until then, I’ll use this method.

I’m also annoyed. Very very annoyed...at G. I’ve felt this before, with Kris and Jonns. I know its a projection but I don’t know how to appropriately communicate it. So, I avoid. Something I’m definitely trying to address and get better at. Long distance in itself is tough. Its tougher when both invested parties are busy, aren’t phone people and one is grieving with death. For the most part, since I’ve been going through this, he’s been fantastic. Giving me space (likely unknowingly) when I need it and treating me when I’m around to help soothe my soul. Right now though, everything is annoying me. He doesn’t want to come down because he wants to explore Miami and I don’t have the capacity for that right now. That annoys me. Its important to me that he meets my dad. Though, can I blame him? Hes never met him, I mean, I’m not exactly super tight with my family. This is also a weird situation because we’ve been together for a year, sure. But this is an intense situation to just walk into. I don’t know what I’d do either. I feel like a puppy asking for attention sometimes. I mean, to be honest, I could use his warmth. I’m sure all of us could use some warmth right now. ANYWAY...Sometimes I feel like I say things and he doesn’t understand the gravity of what I say. Or maybe it doesn’t matter to him. One thing I know for sure, we have different love languages. I totally understand and appreciate that too. In the past, it was something I had to learn the hard way and it tore my relationships apart.

I guess what I’m getting is is that I’m annoyed in general and hes the closest thing to me so, I’m likely projecting. Ha, look at me shrinking myself. I want to explode most days and have to hold it together anyway. For the sake of myself and others around me. My relationship with him has been one of the healthiest I’ve had in my life. Communication is great, we have such a great time together, we appreciate and learn from each other, we’re both growing, what we have feels different and special and magical. Most importantly, we’re independent. We want each other but we definitely don’t need each other. I’m just in a weird fucking place right now and its probably best that I’m doing this alone. Exploring this space alone. Evolving alone. Because that’s exactly how I feel, really fucking alone. Misunderstood. Just like other times though, I will rise. Sure, I will fall straight on my face and Jesus, I know it will fucking hurt. I will get up. I will be stronger. I will evolve. I will be amazing.

Lauryn Lefebvre

From the Begerossé Union

The people of the Begerosse Union are the french equivalent

They speak a version of french called Hasa as well as the common tongue.

The Begerosse call their country "Nations Alliées de Bezerose"

Some cities within the continent include:

Hartriemont

Aabinville

Ferkalquier

The Capital Phiras

And the town in which Lauryn is from Selonnet

Selonnet is a small farming and mining town. Most people can read and write, but no one really has higher education. The technology is all decades old, and it leaves Selonnet looking like a time capsule.

Lauryn's father and mother are both blue-collar works. Her father Jonn-Mar works in a steel factory, and her mother Emmalee works as a bar wench.

Lauryn is one of 5 children

Her older sister Bryleigh ( 22), is married with a son ( Marcis, 1) and works as a seamstress.

Her elder brother Kason who is 19 and works in the mines. He also has a steady girlfriend, Elyse

Lauryn who works under her sister in the seamstress shop

Her brother Dominick ( 11)

Her youngest sibling Ryleigh ( 7)

Lauryn and her family live in a tiny place with minimal luxury. They are one of the few lucky people in town who have a car. They also have a radio and running water. Only the government buildings and the tavern have electricity.

Lauryn wants to change her family and the town's fortune. It's a small town. They all know how smart Lauryn is. They all plan to send her to university in Phiras. Once she turns 17, they were ready to go. That is until a group of hunters came through.

They were anthropology hunters. Fascinated by the culture of Selonnet. The buildings and the language. Hasa and the common tongue spoke differently than the rest of the world.

These hunters spread the tales of the prestige of being a hunter. All the money and perks. The townspeople are ready to evolve and get back on track with the rest of the world.

They send Lauryn to take the exam, hoping she would pass and bring back the wealth and knowledge. Lauryn is helped to the first testing site by the Hunters.

( Lauryn takes the exam before the main cast, Exams happen twice a year, so she takes the first one ( fails) then joins the main cast in the second exam)

The trails to get to the exam are beyond stressful to Lauryn; this is the most physically exhausting thing she has ever done.

There are only two obstacles she has to overcome before she can get to the exam testing site in Sarherta. First, she must board a cruise liner that is headed for york new city. She and all the other contestants must swim to the ship that is sailing away and pull themselves up lines off the back of the boat. Then once she reaches York New, she has to bike to the trolley station on the opposite side of the city that only has 1 trolley and one departure time.

Lauryn is the 14/20 person to make it on to the trolley that takes her to the exam cite. She is number of 284/375 persons to take the 286 hunter exam.

Lauryn struggles throughout the entire process; she does not speak the common tongue very well, and she is a very naive person. She makes it to the third round because she couldn't understand the rookie crushers' attempts at speaking to her. They break her ankle at the beginning of the third round, and she has to stop.

The first round is the easiest for her. It's an intelligence game. A great game of Clue. Where they have to solve a Murder, Theft, and Kidnapping. The contestants who are selected as the murderer, thief, and kidnapper get a pass on the round if less than 50 people guess it's them. If any other constant guess wrong about who did what, when, and where, they fail. At the end of round one, there are 200 people left.

Round 2 is more physically demanding. It's a hike. In which the examiner marks a trail that the contestants have to follow. They have to make it to the peak and back down the other side of the mountain without being caught by him or his 6 students. Who are using Stun Guns, nets, wires, tear gas, and BB Pellets. Lauryn barely manages this round. And at the end of it, her lack of speaking ability comes to light when the examiner asks her a question, and she can't answer. Previously everyone just assumed that Lauryn was quite a lone wolf. But now they know she underconfident and cant under stand them. At the end of the round, there are 30 people left

The third round is a giant football match. Before the contestants can even be divided into teams, Lauryn has her ankle broken. She's not the only one. 4 people have something broken. After the teams are picked. 7 more people are sabotaged in one way or another. At the end of round 3, only ten people move on.

Lauryn goes unnoticed by Hisoka the entire time. He sees her and writes her off as uninteresting and not worth a second glance.

Going home a failure is a massive hit to Lauryn's confidence. She feels deeply and is disappointed in her own shortcomings. Knowing how much the townspeople put into her.

She struggles with healing and deciding if she'll ask the townspeople for another chance. By the end of her six week healing period, she decided she will try again. She then spends the next 6 months, focusing on her physical self and learning the common tongue. In the day she spends hours under the sun on the farms. At night she sits near the radio and learns the common language from the shows.

She goes back for the second exam, much more confident in her ability to pass.

She takes three pre-exam tests. First, she has to take a ferry to the Republic of Rakario, she makes it to the boat early and avoids having to struggle to get on like last time. From Rakario, she has to identify which mode of transport is the right one. She has to make it to the airfield where blimps are waiting to take contestants to the exam cite. Between the Taxi Cab, Rickshaw, and Bus, she picks none of them and walks/runs instead. The Taxi Cab was the right choice. Kinda. If you got into an unaffiliated cab, you would have gotten to the airfield but been unable to find the blimp. If you got into the affiliated taxi cabs, you would have been taken where you needed to go. The rickshaws and busses would have been driven around in circles or delayed as there was a mechanical issue. Because Lauryn walked, it was a slight issue on whether or not the employees wanted to let her on the blimp. They decided yes they would.

The third challenge was a morality question. You were asked a question by the gate agent and had to answer with more than just one or two words. Depending on what you responded to, your ticket would be marked 1 or 2. In the end, it didn't matter what you answered, it was a way for the examiners to scan the person's personalities. Depending on what you answered, you got put on one of two blimps. But both blimps took them to the exam cite. Those who responded poorly, they were purged from within the exam.

Lauryn is number 287 of 406. She does not make friends with the central cast until the boat ride to the island where they plan manhunt. Lauryn approaches Leorio for bandages because she had cut herself within Trick Tower. This is how she breaks into the group.

Lauryn's target for Man Hunt is 118 Sommey. She does not go after him but does the alternate of finding one pointer. She sneaks up on people and hits them from behind.

Lauryn fights in the second round vs. Pokkle. She Wins and passes the exam.

Lauryn's fighting style is straightforward. She knows how to throw basic punches and kicks. She uses farm and mining tools as weapons. She wins in her fight over Pokke because she closes in and makes it a close-range battle. She uses a pike ax during this fight. She wins by slamming the handle into Pokke's stomach and shoving him down. Then points the sharp end at his throat. He surrenders.

Lauryn initially intends to go home and show everyone she passed, then attend university. But she makes a detour to help the group save Killua. She makes plans to see them again in York New.

Once she is off to school, Lauryn has three primary focus.

First off is learning everything she can to help her town.

Second is fixing her appearance. Finally, its to learn nen. Two out of three were easy for Lauryn,

Lauryn's always been smart. Her classes are easy once she gets into the flow, and finding a nen teacher wasn't that hard either. 3 of her professors are professional hunters who were happy to take her on.

It was her appearance that she struggles with. In her village shes never been the prettiest girl, she was just ok. But now, after traveling so much, she feels very self-conscious. Fixing her appearance isnt even that hard. Getting her teeth fixed and contacts, going out into the sun so shes not so pale. Working out with her nen teachers. It's the psychological part that she stresses about. Anxious about her image, weight, and clothing, Lauryn is always a high strung bundle of nerves. This effects her for her whole life. Still feeling like a fish out of water, never really good enough. She does manage her problem, but she never becomes entirely happy with herself.

Lauryn, in the 6-month gap, learns the basics of nen. Ten, Zetsu, and Ren. While she knows these principles she is by no means a master. She also knows what Hatsu is but doesnt know what she will develop. When taking the water divining test, she is an enhancer.

While straightforward and honest. Lauryn is by no means naive. She is a quick learner. He knows how to read a situation and is now cautious of strangers. Gone is the simple village girl and in her place is a savvy young woman.

( the top picture is Lauryn during the first/Second exam the second picture is after the 6 month gap.
