Top 5 Jon Kent Headcanons

@paladin-of-nerd-fandom65

1. Has a big phobia about peacock birds. It used to be severe for him when he was really little and would used to see them walking around the Zoo, because he would start screaming and crying while trying to run away, forcing both Clark and Lois to have to keep a good hold on him in their arms as a way to stop him until they were quickly away from the bird. Now in his current tween age, he can handle it at least a bit more better than before, but still panics internally around them and has to have a good grip on his parents hands until they finally walk away to another section

2. He loves Sunflowers a lot. Chris, who usually loves tending to the garden more than others during chore work, due to having a green thumb for it, knows this fact about his brother very well, so he's the one who thoughtfully makes sure to plant them all the time while also working on the other ones, just so that Jon can always enjoy seeing and having them around the house once they're finally grown. Once Jon found out about this, he stayed always appreciating it so much. He also picks out the sunflowers from the garden sometimes to keep them in a handmade vase from school in his room

3. He's very ticklish on his neck

4. He's very good at writing stories and many other things, thanks to his parents being great professionals in this kind of work and teaching him lots of useful things about it very well, but unlike both of them, Jon actually hates writing and gets stressed out and upset whenever he has to do homework that requires so much of it. Because of this, he also doesn't want to become a reporter or an employed writer at the Daily Planet at all either. His true passion is science and when he becomes an adult one day, he happily succeeds in getting a very great career in that field as a well educated scientist after graduating Metropolis University

5. He goes through a very strange stage of puberty at 15 years old, due to being half Kryptonian. His ears would literally turn blue, forcing him to have to wear headphones over them when in public or a beanie while at school, he would at worst times get itches on his soles, underarms, and stomach, which usually created very awkward moments for him whenever he had to desperately scratch them in front of others who weren't his family and friends, he would get purple circles all over both arms that gad to be hidden by hoodies and long sleeve shirts, and his neck would also grow pink hairs that would shed off, grow, shed off, grow, and repeat everytime, making him have to wear one of Lois' scarfs to cover it up.

The only thing he would get that was similar to the human experience of puberty were zits on obvious parts of his face, except they were a bit more bigger than normal ones, which would result in him receiving annoying mean comments from bullies at school. He got so fed up with it one day, that he decided to finally pop them, but then Kara had to stop him, since she knew from experience that a Kryptonian zit is the type to ruin a whole room with all the large puss it has stored inside of it. She later made him a special meal that came from an old traditional Kryptonian recipe that she knows very well, promising him that it would help to calm all the symptoms down

They both enjoyed it and shared it with the rest of the family too. During that, everyone shared their own embarrassing times during Kryptonian puberty (even Lois as well, despite being human) with Jon, which helped to make him feel so much more better about his entire situation that day. And later, his symptoms began to calm down just like Kara said they would, which also made his day even more to see happening

After that, Kara shared the recipe with Jon for that special Kryptonian meal, so that he can continued eating it to keep making things easier for himself during all of this and once five months went by, everything finally went away and he was able to back to being his normal, happy self again

Thanks for the ask, buddy!!

writing prompt - kara and lenas first date goes wrong on so many levels.

@catwoman33100 thank u for this prompt, this was hilarious to visualize, hope u like

After finally, finally mustering up the courage to ask Lena out, and receiving a shy but vehement yes in return, Kara had settled on what she feels is a good and balanced plan for their first date - after she insisted that she’d take care of setting it up.

A picnic. Simple and intimate. Not at the local park downtown, no, at the regional one with a lot less foot traffic a little outside of the city. It’s scenic, with creeks and trees scattered all over - she’s actually been meaning to go check it out again after she chased down a bad guy through its landscape a couple months back. Not to mention, Kara sees the opportunity to finally showcase her food-making abilities (which are way better than her baking ones) remembering Lena saying something about how much she loves a good pasta salad. She just so happens to have a go-to recipe for that, amongst other things.

Kara gives her a time to be a ready, and a dress code (comfy-outsidey, in verbatim) revealing nothing else for the sake of a lovely, heartfelt surprise. She throws on her nicest pair of khaki shorts and a tank top/button up combo, gently arranges all the food stuffs into a cooler, checks the time and flies off to Lena’s balcony, goods in hand.

She’s already standing outside waiting for her when she lands, smiling so blindingly bright at her as she touches down. Lena’s got on similar shorts to hers, but her top is a light colored blouse that perfectly contrasts her own dark button up. The only thought that goes through her head is that Lena looks so pretty. That being said-

“You look so pretty.” Kara states wistfully, completely bypassing a proper greeting.

Lena chuckles, graciously taking the flowers. “Thank you. You don’t look too bad yourself, handsome.” She says quietly. They stand there blushing and bashful for a few moments before Lena decides to do some questioning, eyes falling on the cooler. “So, what do you have in store for me, miss Zor-el?”

Kara fawns at the use of her Kryptonian name, opening her arm that’s not carrying the cooler. “Grab on and you’ll find out.” With a raised eyebrow, Lena walks forward and wraps her arms around broad shoulders, Kara’s arm closing in around her. They’ve flown together like this a few times already to get to whatever destinations, and despite Lena’s distaste for heights, it’s a lot different for her when she’s flush against a warm, toned body. Kara takes off grinning to herself. Hopefully Lena’s impressed with this.

The first blunder happens 2 1/2 minutes into their 3 minute long flight, when they hit a patch of icy air that causes Lena to dig her nails into Kara’s back. The sensation startles her just enough to lose grip of the cooler, sending it spiraling to the ground below. The drinks, the pasta salad made with love, gone in an instant. There was even a hidden bouquet of sunflowers in there that she was gonna give to her.

“Kara, it’s okay. I’m actually glad it was the cooler and not me.” Lena tries to console her while they’re in line at her favorite sandwich place.

“But Lena, I made it for you - and, and there were flowers-“

The second blunder happens after they’ve taken their newly bought food to the park, finding a cool and secluded picnic table under a tree to set up at. Right as Lena is about to take her first bite, guess what happens? A bird. And its excrement. Perfectly placed on her sandwich.

It takes Kara a solid 5 minutes to convince her to take hers. She had a big breakfast anyway- ( a lie, she hadn’t eaten a bite of anything the whole day).

The third blunder happens when they’re walking alongside one of the creeks, and Kara spots a frog on her secret quest for wildflowers. “Oh! Oh wow! Lena, look-“ She takes a few steps toward it. “It’s a fr-“ And promptly trips over a rock and tumbles directly into the muddy stream of water before she can consciously do anything about it. So much for superpowers.

The fourth blunder comes seconds after, when Kara remembers herself and flings her body out of the water with haste, wiping mud off of her face as she accidentally bumps into a nearby tree. There’s a thud, and a buzzing sound, and then - oh. It’s a beehive.

There’s already screaming as she registers everything.

Wait, did Lena say that one time that she’s allergic?

A couple minutes later, at the DEO due to Lena’s insistence of ‘not wanting to be photographed like this’, Alex is being frantically greeted by a muddy, disheveled sister and a blotchy Luthor with still forming hives. “What the fuck happened you guys oh my god-“

“Bees. Lots of them. Antihistamines. Now.” Kara sounds like she’s hyperventilating.

“It’s a mild allergy darling, please relax.” Lena says, completely unconcerned with her own situation. “I’m going to be fine.” She pats Kara on her damp back as she heaves panicked breaths. “I didn’t think I’d need an epi-pen today-“ She adds on in a whisper.

Alex is back with the medicine within a minute and Kara is still working on her breathing. “What the hell were you guys doing to end up like this - hunting down Sasquatch?”

Kara and Lena speak at the same time. “First date.”

…

“WHAT-“

jon kent!!!!!!!!!

HECK YEAH JON KENT!!!! MY FAVORITE SUNFLOWER ALIEN!!

First impression

The only issue I had with him at first was he didn't look like the Jon I was used to seeing in the comics, that's all. I watched the pilot episode the night it aired, he became my baby boy almost instantly, and I got pissed he didn't get powers.

Besides that, I thought the show was gonna make him mean and full of himself just because he was a jock and to make Jordan seem better. Thankfully I was wrong.

Impression now

I am normal about him. So normal about him. I totally don't think about him and his horrible life all the time. The fact that he's the glass child of the family doesn't make me wanna curl into a ball and cry 🙂 I'm lying he destroys me emotionally

Favorite moment

JUST ONE??? Ummm that's hard because every time he gets his limited screentime it's always something to remember whether it's because he made me cry or laugh

But I guess if I had to choose I'd pick the kitchen scene from Holding The Wrench. Seeing him go off on people and break the "son who's supposed to sit and smile no matter what" role he's been put into is always a highlight. The scene when he yells at Jordan for spying on him is amazing too.

It was always so impressive to me how Jon could go from adorable golden retriever to giving off a genuine threatening/intimidating feel in a snap.

Idea for a story

All my story ideas for him that aren't chapters in Escapism are episode/scene rewrites. Examples would be:

- having him be poisoned by kryptonite when Jordan was because he's Kryptonian, he absolutely should be harmed by kryptonite, powers or no powers.

- some hurt/comfort focused on him and Clark in the hospital after Jordan broke his wrist.

- Possessed Tal-Rho taking him instead of Jordan just because that's what I thought was gonna happen and still am disappointed it didn't.

Unpopular opinion

I dunno if this is really unpopular because I've seen a lot of people say similar things but s3 Jon and s1 - 2 Jon aren't the same character. It feels like the show rebooted his character and only kept the "he's the nice brother" from previous Jon.

They erased so many of his character traits and what made me like him so much in season 3. It's sad.

Favorite relationship

Jon and Clark.

They're relationship is so interesting to me because it went from good to terrible in one season. There's a lot to work with when it comes to angst, like the idea of Jon hating Superman and anything related to him at some point in his life because he's the son that got left behind for not being "super" enough, and seeing his father and brother is a reminder of that.

Favorite headcanon

He has adhd but isn’t diagnosed because his parents are too busy focusing on Jordan to notice what he's experiencing.

Other than that hc, I like to think he can draw pretty well. Since he doesn't get to be open with his emotions, he decided to draw them as a way to express what he's feeling. They're all in a journal under his bed and he would freak out if someone found and looked through it.

#i have a lot of thoughts about him if you haven't noticed #cods.talkin #asks and answers #jonathan kent #superman and lois

A Change in Plans

Fandom: Supergirl

Characters: Lena Luthor, Kara Danvers, Alex Danvers

Summary: Kara has the perfect wedding proposal planned. However, outside forces altered what she had in mind.

Note: Did this for Fluffcember with a bonus choice of Cookies

Kara stood staring at a blue sunflower print dress that she had in her closet. It was the same dress that she wore on her first date with Lena. She smiled when she thought about it. She was so nervous about botching everything. However, the night went perfectly. They held hands while they walked to the park and had a picnic near the lake. It ended with them wrapped in a blanket watching the sunset set. The sun setting over the lake caused the lake to turn into beautiful hues of pinks, blues, and purples. It was as breathtaking as watching the marvel across Lena’s face.

Today was their one year anniversary and she wanted to recreate that date with Lena, but with a twist. Hidden in the picnic basket, she had an engagement ring and bracelet. Sam and Alex had been spies for her and told Kara the engagement rings that Lena had been looking at when she didn’t think anyone was noticing. She was able to get it from Lena’s favorite jeweler several days ago. It was a pink heart-shaped diamond ring with a silver band. She had inscribed inside the band: You are my heart and soul. Now and forever. She went to the Fortress of Solitude to have Kelex recreate the wedding bracelet her mom had. It nearly made her tear up thinking about it. The bracelet had her family’s crest surrounded by gold. Wedding bracelets hold a special meaning in Kryptonian culture. Not only was it an announcement of your love, but it was showing the world that you wanted to spend eternity with that special someone. It was very significant because marriage in Krypton was not something that was taken lightly since divorce was heavily frowned upon. Only a couple of people in Kryptonian history have done so. Kara couldn’t wait to put the bracelet around Lena’s wrist. They had about an hour before she had to leave to pick up her custom-order picnic basket from Noonan’s, place the ring and bracelet inside the basket, and then take Lena to the park, but Kara was a bundle of energy. She thought about going patrolling to burn off some steam but changed her mind when she smelt something pleasant coming from outside the room. She followed the smell until she got to the kitchen. She smiled when she saw Lena in the kitchen taking out a tray of cookies.

Kara bounced over to her smiling and exclaimed, “I didn’t know that you were making cookies!”

She looked at the cookies further and noticed they were her favorite: Reese’s peanut butter cookies. Each cookie was several inches high with a soft center.

While her mouth watered, she said, “You made my favorite.”

Lena smiled, caressed her face, and said, “It is a special day, and I wanted to do something special that showed that you mean everything to me.”

Kara smiled and said, “You mean the world to me too.”

Kara leaned to kiss Lena. Kara wrapped her arms around her and Lena leaned into the embrace. They kissed for a couple of moments until they heard a sudden pop. They leaned back, opened their eyes, and saw that they were in darkness.

Before they could say anything else, the lights came back on again.

Kara smirked and said, “I guess our love nearly overloaded the electricity.”

Lena chuckled while swatting playfully at Kara’s arm and said, “You are incorrigible.”

Kara smirked and said, “You know you love it.”

Lena smirked and said, “Always.”

Lena leaned forward and kissed Kara once more. They stayed like that for a couple of moments before Lena pushed herself back. Kara looked up at her pouting.

Lena chuckled and said, “I know you want to keep going, but I want to finish making the cookies. Before they cool off, I need to soak them in the honey mixture that you like so much.”

Kara beamed. She loved the honey glaze that Lena used on the cookies. The Reese’s peanut butter cookies did taste great without it. However, the addition of the glaze brought the cookie up to the top tier.

Kara sighed and said, “I will get out of your way.”

Lena chuckled and said, “I just need 10 minutes and then you can have a cookie.”

Kara smiled and kissed Lena on the cheek.

“Alright, I will just check my work emails for a bit.”

Lena smiled and said, “Perfect.”

Kara bounced out of the room looking for her work computer until she noticed something strange out of the corner of her eye. The door that led to the balcony showed it had ice forming on it. She went towards it, opened the door, and balked at what she saw. There was a full-blown blizzard happening outside. Considering they were near Los Angeles, this was not the norm. She quickly closed the door and called Alex. She answered on the first ring.

“Hello,” said Alex.

“Hey, have you seen what is going on outside?” asked Kara.

Alex sighed and said, “Yes, I see the snow.”

Kara frowned and said, “It is not just snow. It is a snowstorm happening out there. The visibility is so low that I can only see a couple of inches in front of me.”

“I know. We got reports from Metropolis of Superman and the Flash fighting the Weather Wizard. He caused a snowstorm to appear. The Flash and Superman were able to destroy the machine the Weather Wizard was using, but the storm he created was in the atmosphere and has been heading west ever since. It has been losing force believe it or not since traveling. Metropolis got hit with 20 feet of snow. They are predicting here that we will get 8 feet.”

“Is there no way to stop it?”

“No, at this point, it will be waiting for the storm to dissipate on its own. The scientists believe that the storm will peter out around Hawaii in about 8 hours.”

Kara groaned. That nixed the perfect proposal plan she had tonight.

“I know that you had plans with Lena tonight, but maybe you can do the proposal another time.”

Kara sighed, “Maybe.”

Ms. Writer how do think Maggie and her yanderes(?) react if y/n just one day walked in the manor with her own Kryptonian claimed sidekick?

The Kryptonian has a Superman/Clark personality, but just follows y/n's orders like a puppy? And y/n and him have a batman x superman relationship

Do you think Maggie even knows the existence of Kryptonians?? 🤔

Omg hello Anon, I love you! Also, side note real quick, I'd prefer Mx. Writer in the future as I am nonbinary. I don't know why but the phrase "Maggie and her Yanderes" is so funny to me.

Now let's get into this amazing question! Ah, I'm so excited! This gives me an excuse to create a new character! Introducing Basil Zor El!

I do not think Maggie knows about Kryptonians quite yet, as she would have never encountered one. She's never been to National City and doesn't watch the news much. But Maggie, being the kindhearted person she is, instantly takes a liking to him. The boy is a little younger than her, maybe a year or two. So she gets that "Protective older sister vibe."

She'd be immediately apprehensive about Y/N intentions towards the young man. But he seems to be happy with his relationship with the assassin, so she leaves it be. He'd quickly become an honourary Blossom. Of course, Maggie has her adopted family, The Queens, back in Star City. But Maggie moved to Gotham to be her own woman, and make a name for herself. She likes that she has someone else she can depend on and relate to in the city.

Now Victor would be instantly jealous. His Y/N goes to National City on a mission and comes back with another boy in tow. He would try to kill this kid, no hesitation. But Basil can hold his own. Victor learns to respect it, especially once he begins to understand it's more of a Villain, sidekick kind of relationship.

Oswald would not like that both Y/N, the person he trusts with his life, and Maggie, his precious little sunflower, have taken a liking to this boy. He wants their attention to be solely on him. But he sees that they are both happy, so he lets the boy live in his mansion with them.

If you couldn't tell by the name, Basil is a Zor El. Meaning he is Kara Danvers younger brother. I feel like Kara and he didn't land in the same place, so for a long time, she didn't even know her brother made it to earth. Maybe about six months before he meets Y/N, he found his older sister and they grew kind of close. She trusted him with knowledge about her Supergirl personality. But she babied him like most people do with Maggie and he didn't want that. Y/N may not treat him like an equal, but she knows he's capable and strong and he appreciates that about their dynamic.

I feel like if Kara ever visits, most of the villains would obviously hate her. And she would do that thing she does, where she tries to be nice to everyone before she knows their true intentions. Maggie and her would get along, but not in the way Maggie and Basil do. Kara reminds Maggie of what she could have been before Gotham and her Past started to corrupt her. It makes her uneasy in a way, too close to someone who reminds her of what she would be if she just followed in her own sibling's footsteps. And Basil feels the same way about his own sister. They're capable of being nice to her, to her face, but they talk about her behind her back when she leaves.

Jim likes the kid. I feel like, for his day job, Basil would shadow Jim and Harvey at the Police station. He is now Y/N more direct and stable connection to the police system. She can use him to get information, weapons, anything she needs. He'd have Jim, Harvey and Lee completely fooled. But Ed can see the darkness in him. He probably hangs out with Ed in the morgue on breaks, so he can drop his goody-two-shoes facade.

Ivy has no opinion. Selena Kyle may or may not have a slight crush on the new kid in town. I feel like Basil would follow Maggie and Y/N on their trips to the Wayne Mansion. Similar to how Y/N sees Maggie as a sort of social experiment, Basil would view Bruce in the same way. He sees Bruce's potential to become a villain, but he finds it entertaining how hard the boy fights to stay good.

Basil can speak many dialects, so he understands when Y/N and Maggie speak french together. He and Y/N often chat in Italian if they need to have a private conversation and they don't want anyone to listen in. Jervis Tetch sees him as his White Rabbit. As Maggie is his White Queen. I feel Basil is similar to the rabbit because he works hard to please Y/N. You have to be really good at time management and plan to make to moonlight as an officer and be a villain at the same time.

Let me know if I forgot anyone, or if you guys want more of this character. I'm really liking him so far, so thank you Anon for the idea. I really adore it.

Clark once told Bruce that he finds Bruce's heartbeats really grounding and peaceful. It's very calm most of the time.

One night, after a tiring battle with the Parasite, Clark is unable to filter out all the noises around the world. The screams of new born babies, the howls of hungry animals, loud horns of vehicles stuck in traffic, sonic boom of airplanes, parents around the world shouting at each other or at their children, cries of pain, joy, and lust. Everything is driving him crazy. In his desparation, he flies towards the Wayne manor.

It's around 4 am. Bruce has just gone to bed when he hears the banging on his window. He is startled, sitting ram rod straight but he relaxes a bit when he noticed Clark. Not for long though. When he opened the window, Clark was crying. "Bruce...please...h-help me! It won't stop. They won't stop. The noises. I can't control! I hear everythin-everything! I can't--", he was begging, sobbing...Bruce was scared to see Clark like this. But he was even more afraid of how much it was hurting his own heart. Bruce was ready to burn the whole world down if it meant he could give Clark some moments of peace. He didn't even realise when he had hugged the man of tomorrow. Gently, the dark knight guided him to bed. It was almost like instinct. It came so naturally as he slowly cradled the kryptonian on his chest. He calmed himself the best he can...for Clark, for his Boy Scout. Bruce was lying down on his back, over the covers, holding the distraught man close to him, as if he would never let go, caressing his hair. 'So much softer than I ever imagined...'

Gradually, Clark calmed down. It was warm, cosy, safe...it felt like home. He didn't remember when he fell asleep.

By the time Bruce woke up, Clark had already left. The comfortable weight and warmth was replaced by a fluffy blanket. He didn't miss Clark. He certainly didn't wish he had woken up to a certain reporter's sleeping face. It was a silly thing to be annoyed about. But this is Batman, he is annoyed by everything. Even by the little note he noticed on the unoccupied pillow. "Thank you for lending me your heart, last night :)" it said with a single, bright sunflower. It reminded him of a conversation he had with Clark.

"What's your favourite flower?"

"...what--"

"Roses, right? Red roses."

"..."

"Well, it goes with the whole dark aesthetic-"

"Sunflowers...I like sunflow--why are you laughing?"

"Sorry! Sorry, it was just a bit jarring that 'I am the Night' likes sunflowers so much. I thought of roses because your of your gift. You know? Special Krypton rose?"

"...no, roses...were my mother's favourite. My father always bought her roses..."

"Oh...uh sorry, B. I didn't mean-"

"It's OK, Supes. Really."

"..."

"Why sunflowers?"

Batman said nothing. He just stared at Superman's bright smile...and then ignored him. They were on monitor duty, after all.

#superbat #superman x batman #clark kent #bruce wayne #clarkbruce #idiot writing idiots in love #amateur writing #first attempt at fanfic #superman #batman #i just miss them #sunflowers and roses #clark is sunflower #bruce is rose #cliche #i know but i love cliches #just wanted to write bruce simping for clark without even realising he is simping for clark #it's more like a ficlet tho

Mind Controlled – The Series.

Part 4 – There’s no forgiveness.

Supercorp, Kara Danvers x Daughter!Reader, Lena Luthor x Daughter!Reader.

Word count: 2190.

Warning: Injuries, pain, angst.

Previously on the series - part 1, part 2, part 3

Kara lands in the backyard when the first ray of the sun hits the sky. You’re still glued to her, covered in blood, sweat and tears. Your throat hurts like you’ve been screaming for hours straight. Your mind feels lazy, like for some reason you’ve lost part of your brain function. There’s blood coming out of several parts of your body, and you don’t know how any of those bruises ended up on you.

“Water, please.” You beg, when Kara goes inside the house and she takes you to the kitchen, still carrying your floppy body everywhere. You look at the kitchen wall. Bricks exposed, dust and broken parts on the floor and you gasp at the image imprinted on the wall. “I hurt you.”

“No, baby.” Kara sits you on the stool. She grabs water and pours cereal into a bowl for you. You don’t move. You can’t take your eyes from the wall. “You know I have super strength. You didn’t hurt me.”

“But I tried to.” You drink the water, so your mind gets occupied with something. What have you done? “Where’s mom? Did I hurt her too?”

“Baby.” Kara goes to you, and holds your face, gently. “I know you don’t remember anything, but you have to believe me. You didn’t hurt a single soul, ok?” You want to agree, but it’s hard because you really don’t remember if it’s true. “Eat something. You really need to shower this blood off, and you need some sleep.”

“But-” You try to argue, but Kara doesn’t want to talk anymore. So you look to the floor, finding impossible to stare at the wall and the proof you’ve acted like a monster. “Oh my God.”

“What, baby?” Kara follows your eyes to the floor.

“Mom’s vase. I broke mom’s vase.” You get up from the stool, stumbling your way to the vase. You fall on the floor, collecting one of the pieces. “She loved this.”

“My love, it’s just a vase.” Kara makes her way to where you are, crouching next to you.

“But you brought as a gift from that time you went to Japan, and she… SHE LOVES THIS!” You cry, trying to collect every piece, bleeding on the porcelain. “She will never forgive me.”

“Baby, no, no.” Kara takes the broken pieces from your hands, and picks you up. “That’s enough of self-loathing, come on.” She sits on the stool again. “Eat, please.”

You do as she told you to. It doesn’t take long until you’re clean and wrapped up in blankets and Kara’s arms, and you fall into a turbulent, but still needed sleep.

When you wake up, it’s the middle of the afternoon. You make your way to the kitchen, feeling equally shitty on the outside, but at least you can stand up now. On the inside you feel worse, like you have done things so horrible your brain is refusing to let you remember them. It sits heavy on your stomach and on your heart. You hope to Rao you haven’t done something irredeemable.

You walk in the kitchen and look around. Kara already cleaned the vase, and even though the wall is still broken, she somehow managed to make it look less like her body-shape. There’s so much food waiting for you, it looks like Kara is trying to feed a Kryptonian army.

“Hey, baby. Got some rest?” Kara comes closer, and she grabs your hands, studying them for the marks there. She looks at the marks on your wrists, and even lifts your shirt to look at the raw flesh of your ribcage, to make sure your injuries are better. They are not. ��You need sunlight.”

“Momma, I’m not a sunflower.” You huff, while Kara picks you up again, taking you to the backyard, to the table there.

“Yes, you are.” She jokes and you look up to her while pouting.

“You are a sunflower.” You cross your arms, making Kara laugh.

She comes back into the house to pick up the food, and a few seconds later most of the food is in front of you.

“Where’s mom?” You ask, looking around, and since you don’t have your glasses, you can use your x-ray vision. “You said I didn’t hurt her, so why isn’t she home yet?”

“You didn’t hurt anyone, but you broke some stuff.” Kara grabs one slice of pizza, and sits next to you. Your eyes grow bigger.

“Besides her vase?” You still can’t forgive yourself for that. Kara nods. “What else?”

“Your training center.” She sighs, and your eyes are filled with tears right away. “You burnt it, actually.”

“I’m so sorry!” You cover your face with your hands, feeling embarrassed and sad. You loved going there and practicing with aunt Alex and your momma. Why the hell did you do that for?

“It wasn’t you.” Kara pulls you into a hug, and kisses your forehead. “You didn’t want to do or say any of those things. We know, baby.”

“But-” You tried to argue, still not understanding.

“Baby, you were mind controlled.” Kara breathes out her answer. “You did things you didn’t mean to. Someone else was pulling the strings. None of that was inside of you, none of that was what you once thought or wanted to do, ok?”

“Is that why I don’t remember a thing about it?” You ask, confused. Kara agrees with her head, and you look down trying to think. That’s a good thing. To know none of that was inside of you, and to know you didn’t mean to do any of that. But still, somebody used your body and your memories to hurt the ones you loved and the places you love, so that is terrifying. You look up to her again. “Someone, who?”

“Lex.” Kara lets out and you agree with your head, not wanting to hear anything else.

Ok, so you didn’t physically hurt anyone, but you know Lex (or at least his reputation), so you know that he probably found other ways to hurt people. And Lena, poor Lena, was probably his first choice for that, because he genuinely hates her.

You really want to apologize, so you can’t wait until Lena to get home for you to do so. But she doesn’t come. You wait and wait, but Lena never arrives. You probably screwed up with her big time.

Kara keeps reassuring you that you didn’t, that none of it it’s your fault, but it can’t be true. So, one day Lex mind controls you to beat up your momma, destroy important places to you, and you’re supposed to believe this has nothing to do with Lena not coming home to you?

You wake up before Kara does, and you go to the kitchen to make her breakfast, so you can somehow apologize for whatever it is that happened on the day and night before. You make her all of her favorites, and leave a note under a flower on the counter for when she wakes up.

You are the sunflower.

You don’t wait for her to wake up, though. Your heart has been desperate for hours wanting to see your mom and have her forgiveness and feel her comfort. There’s nothing more comforting in the world than Lena’s hands on your hair while you place your head on her lap.

You listen to her heartbeat, and you go to her. You land on Lena’s balcony at L Corp, looking inside to where she is sitting on the couch. You also notice other things: Her overnight bag pushed to the side, untouched food in front of her, her red eyes and puffy cheeks. It breaks your heart all the more.

“Mom.” You go to her, kneeling on the floor in front of her and placing your head on her lap. “Please, forgive me. Please.”

“Come on, baby, stand up.” Lena tries to hold your hand, but you settle on her lap, weeping mercifully.

“I don’t know what I said, or did, but I know I’ve hurt you. Please, please, forgive me.” You ask between the tears and the cracks in your voice. Lena’s hands go to your head. “I’m so sorry for everything.”

“It wasn’t you.” Lena strokes your hair, gently. “It was Lex mind controlling you. Babygirl, I’m not angry. Everything is ok.”

You lift your head so you can look at her. Lena gives you a sad little smile, while cleaning the tears on your face.

“But-but you’re here.” You look around. “You’re not home, because you can’t be around me anymore.”

“What? Baby, no!” Lena holds your arms gently, making you stand and sit next to her. She gives you a comforting hug, that feels too nice to be fake. And cups your face, right after. “This has nothing to do with you. Do you hear me?”

“I don’t understand.” You furrow your brows, looking scared and lost. “You’re sleeping in your office at L Corp right after I was turned into a monster. How can this have nothing to do with me?”

“Babygirl, do you trust me?” Lena asks. Her eyes flicker, anxiously, studying your face, like she’s afraid of your answer.

“More than myself.” It’s your most truthful sentence. She gives you a soft smile.

“Then believe me when I tell you, I’m not mad at you, and I’m not here because I can’t be around you.” She strokes your cheeks with her thumbs. “I love you more than anything, and I’m very, extremely, deeply happy that my baby is back.”

“I am.” You repeat, agreeing with your head. “Then, please come back home.”

“I can’t.” She kisses your forehead, and then lets go of your face. “Not now, anyways.”

“Mom.” You try, but she shakes her head like she’s telling you to stop this conversation.

“Please, have breakfast with me?” She asks turning to the food before you, and even though you already ate, you refuse to say no and let her eat alone.

When you’re finished eating, and you see that Lena actually ate something, you decide to pick the subject back again.

“Mom, I know I was mind controlled, but, um, I need to make sure I didn’t physically hurt you or said anything too painful.” She looks at you, pointing at herself, like she’s saying that she’s not hurt. “Right. And the second part?”

“Baby, I told you. The things you said? All Lex.” She kisses your forehead again. “Stop worrying.” You wish it was that simple. That you could just simply stop worrying, but you look at her face, you see the sadness in her eyes, and you know you would do anything to make her happy again.

Your phone starts ringing and she looks at it, reading the name in it.

“Answer it, so Kara doesn’t worry about you.” She says, and you furrow your brows.

Kara. Heart beating fast. Breath stuck in her lungs.

“Hey, momma.”

“Kid, where are you? You made all this breakfast and left me here to eat alone?”

“Came to check upon mom.”

“Oh, um, right. How-How is Lena?”

Lena. Choking on her words. Dear Rao. This isn’t about you at all.

“Sleeping at her office, so not great.”

Lena raises an eyebrow at you, and you hear Kara sucking on air.

“You guys want to tell me something?” You ask on the phone while looking at Lena.

“We’ll talk when you get home.” You hear Kara’s voice, and then the dial tone. You lower your phone and keep waiting for Lena’s response.

“It has nothing to do with you.” Lena says, holding your hands, and stroking your bruises lightly. “This is between me and your momma only, ok?”

“Mom, please, come home. Whatever it is, you two need to talk.” You ask, and she shakes her head in denial.

“Please baby. Let’s not talk about it.” Even though she added the ‘please’ you know it’s not a request. You know your mom, and you can see it on her face that you better drop the subject right now, or you will make things worse.

So, it seems that none of your moms are mad at you, or sad about the things you’ve said and done. It looks like it has nothing to do with you, and it’s a fight between them.

Alex also doesn’t seem to care, when you see her in the middle of the week, she just smiles and waves at you. She doesn’t even want to listen to your apology, she just cuts you off with a “kiddo, save that apology for a time you do this with your worst intentions. This wasn’t your fault, so I don’t need no apology.”

And you wish that could go into your brain and make you forgive yourself for the things that you know, now, you’ve done. But there’s still exposed bricks on your kitchen wall, there’s still no place for you to practice, and there’s still no Lena in your house. And as the week goes on and on, and you don’t know if she’ll ever come back, there’s no forgiveness you can give to yourself.

SuperCorp Headcanons

These are some random headcanons I have of our favorite CEO and hero couple. I’m writing a multichapter fic using those headcanons, so stay tunned for future reference.

Kara likes to braid Lena's hair. Sometimes she will just float behind her while she's reading on the couch or working on her office at their home and she will rub her hand through dark locks and braid her hair with so much care that Lena could totally fall asleep while she does so.

Lena stays up until late very often, either to work or because she has to finish something before going to bed. More often than not, Kara will sit by her side and keep her silent company, either reading or just playing on her phone, until she's done and they can go to bed together.

Kara has a gift of knowing whenever Lena's having a bad day. She says it's because they love each other so much, but Lena knows she flies by L-Corp now and then to check on her. Whenever she knows Lena might need a distraction, she sends her favorite flowers with a silly card attached to it.

Kara is also a very DIY lady. She loves handmade gifts, even if it can take her days to make them. Her favorite gift to pull out is small cute matchboxes decorated with romantic scenarios, phrases or even with small chocolate inside, that she likes to hide at Lena's purse for the woman to find later on the day.

Kara plans the best dates. Lena doesn't know how someone can be that creative, but the blonde never seem to run out of ideas and their dates are always a pleasure. There are romantic nights with candles and flowers, movies, wine, and cuddling. Then there are the adventures when Kara simply takes her to do something insane like climb a brick wall. But her favorite ones are the random nights. Stand-up shows, ice skating, airsoft, arcade. Nothing like laughing your ass off while being silly with your love.

No shock that Lena gets worried sick every time the TV breaks in some breaking news involving Supergirl and one of her emergencies. If she's allowed to, depending on where she's currently located, Lena will sit in front of the TV and watch the whole thing to be sure Kara would be okay. She knows there's no one stronger than her on the planet, but she can't help but worry. Knowing this, Kara makes sure to stop by L-Corp every single time after finishing a mission, it being either putting down a fire, saving a dog from under a car or beating up an alien, so she can tell her in person she's fine and receives her "Good Job, I'm proud of you" kiss.

Kara has problems to sleep sometimes. Alex calls it Hero's Weight on Your Shoulder (HWYS when she's trying to be a smartass), but it means that sometimes her brain simply can't turn off for her to sleep. Images of Krypton and a lot of other things keep flashing at her all night and it just sucks. The first couple of times it happened, Lena felt useful and could do nothing but watch as Kara rolled and sighed all night. She made some research though because of course, she would, and she came up with some plans. She was surprised when the first one worked out perfectly. Now, whenever Kara starts feeling restless, she places her head on Lena's chest and asks her to sing to her, which she does of course.

Lena has a busy schedule, no news in that, but it means she can't always find time in her agenda to share lunch with Kara. She does make sure she has food, though. Very often, Kara receives a call from the doorman on CatCo telling her the delivery guy had stopped by to drop her lunch and she always goes down already texting Lena.

3 people on Earth can speak Kryptonian fluently when Lena first hears about it. Apart from the obvious two Kryptonians, there's also Winn and he's the one she goes for when she wants to learn it. Kara and she are still friends when that happens, but she wants to ask her out in Kryptonian. Which she does and Kara answers in English first because it took her like ten seconds to realize Lena had just spoken her native language. Sometimes Lena has to ask Kara to slow down so she can understand, but she's capable of keeping a conversation and Kara loves it.

When Kara has to go off for one of her rescue missions as Supergirl, and it doesn't matter if she was in no danger at all anyways, Lena will always set up a hot bath for her. She knows Kara will always give 100% of herself in anything she does, so she knows the woman would be very likely to push herself much more than needed and a hot bath is a perfect thing to help her body and mind to relax again (and it gives her an excuse to join her sometimes too, so win-win).

When Kara has a particularly busy day saving the town, she has trouble to sleep. Sometimes when she does sleep she has problems to stay still. She turns, and rolls, and kicks and, since she's a superhero, she floats. The first time it happened, Lena screamed for her dear life because she was not expecting to see Kara hanging upside down Spider-Man style snoring slightly (she swears she doesn't snore too). So, now and then, Lena has to wake her up so she floats back to bed. Then, just to be sure, she lies on top of her, literally on top of her, all limbs and all, and sleeps there for the rest of the night, knowing Kara isn't going to float or suffocate with her there.

Lena is easily one of the smartest people on the planet. Hands down. Her work for L-Corp is way beyond a CEO job only and everyone knows it. She's usually using her mind and skills to invent new devices or come up with new amazing ideas. She has tons of projects that she's working on or that she had to push to the side for one reason or another, but she never stops working on new ways to help Supergirl. Armors, weapons, literally anything that will help keep her safe while she's out there saving the city (Kara's favorite invention is a hidden pocket on her suit where she can keep her chocolate).

They're avid readers, no surprise. Kara's favorite gender is romance, while Lena loves sci-fi and suspense, but they honestly read anything that catches their eyes. Whenever they see or read a book they think the other might like, they leave it with a note saying something like "Here you go, nerd" or "To my bookworm". If it's a book they both read, they will gladly discuss it for hours and hours.

Their other hobby is games. They play board games with their friends on game nights and they play cards with Alex and her girlfriend when they want a more quiet night. But they go completely nuts with Mario Kart. They're both very competitive woman and they love Mario, so they very often make tournaments where they can spend a whole weekend playing it. Kara hangs a whiteboard behind their front door and they keep the score there. It's always very tight, but she's proud to say she's winning from 65 x 62;

They both have some crazy working schedules. Lena works until late or has some gala events to attend very often, and Kara has her Supergirl emergencies or some reporter thing to solve out sometimes. It means they're not always home on time for dinner. It is very common for one of them to get home and find the other one sleeping on the couch with a book fallen on their face or chest because they refuse to go to bed without the other.

Because of Kara's sensitive ear, New Year's Eve and the 4th of July are a nightmare for her. So, not only did Lena designed silent fireworks, but she also takes Kara to celebrate in a quiet place every holiday. She knows not everybody is fond of her quiet fireworks and that many people still go for the older ones, so is still hard for Kara. So they lock themselves at the DEO lab and spent the night celebrating on their own. Even so, Lena makes sure Kara will enjoy their private party, always going out of her way to make everything perfect.

They are always trying different things together. Lena wasn’t very fond of the idea of trying new things, but Kara showed her how nice and fun it could be and now she’s all about it with her. They tried some normal things like dancing classes, yoga, painting, craftwork and cooking new dishes, but they also went pretty insane at some point with the cricket, skydiving – Kara did it for the joke, golf and scuba diving on caves. They simply adore trying new things together, to get that excited feeling while holding hands and smiling at each other.

They can’t quite remember who said it first because it became so normal that it was almost like it was something they always said, but they were each other flowers. Kara was Lena’s sunflower, bringing happiness, loyalty, adoration and the sun itself into her life. Lena was Kara’s rose, always making her feel love and passion, and giving her strength. Again, they don’t remember who said it first, maybe it was even Alex who made the comparison when they were still friends, but they felt it into their hearts that it was true.

Note

"take the grass" is adapted from the comics where superman absorbed sunflowers after being completely drained from a nuclear radiation explosion. honestly i would have preferred if alex stabbed kara with some photochemical injection to recharge her cells. a kryptonian body is technically like a solar panel... um. i would explain the science but its too long. i guess this can go up against chyler throwing the sun grenade n saying "here comes the sun" back in s2.

“Here comes the sun” was amazing and deserved bexause Alex literslly harnessed the sun and brought it to an alien planet. In fact, the sun grenade should have been the resolution here, because she would have had reason to have one on her belt with a rogue Kryptonian on the loose and Supergirl going loose canon and sorry but they did NOT do a good enough job setting up the grass angle for it to be feasible.

Like, maybe if there had been a flashback to young kara mentioning that some plants made her skin tingle, as though they contained little suns or whatever. Just SOMETHING.

But also I was a little jarred when Red Daughter punched Kara into nighttime. The whole thing was just weird. And after the Reign beat down, this one felt… inorganic. Hollow.

So silly/weird as heck Headcanon(s) incoming;

Between all the younger members of the Kents; Jon might be the one who sleepwalks/floats the most often even compared to the nocturnal Christopher or late night club regular Conner

Rao knows the amount of times the little guy ended up either waking up in the ceiling of the house, in the middle of the barn rooftop or on top of the kitchen stove, light drool on his mouth and in his hands, either his pillow or some snacks he ate.

Also, Chris and Jake often make live streaming of either their reactions to their favorite shows, eating increasingly spicy wings or just them playing with Krypto and Haley respectively

Also also, Chris and Jon often times just share their sleepwear since while somewhat differing in height, said sleepwear is flexible and capable of fitting the both of them. Sometimes one night can have Jon in a white t shirt with blue striped flannel pants and Chris has a blue shirt and grey sweats, hips the next night it’s reversed. That’s how used to them they are

Also also also, Jon, despite having Kryptonian dna, inherited his Grandfather Sam Lane’s allergy to peanuts. Though not as severe as General Lane’s, Jon nonetheless substitutes peanut butter in his sandwiches with sunflower seed butter instead.

@paladin-of-nerd-fandom65

I love these, especially that first one hahaha!!

And the one about Jon and Chris switching clothes is adorable! I like it a lot💗

The one with Chris and Jake starting a YouTube channel sounds really fun. It also reminds me of my au where Jon's a YouTube gamer and sometimes invites Damian, Maya, Kathy, and Colin to play with him in multiplayer games in videos and sometimes doing funny reaction videos with them as well, or just with Damian, on anything (sometimes Krypto interrupts the vids by walking into the room lol and Jon just calls him Henry as a cover up nickname, which I came up with to be a fun little reference to the Superman actor Henry Cavill)

Jon actually getting his peanut allergy from Sam as a small backstory makes that headcanon even more interesting! And I like how Jon still somehow finds a substitute flavor for himself as a loophole to still be able to eat and enjoy pb&j sandwiches lol

Thanks for sending these, buddy! They were really a joy to read!💖💙💖💙💖

DCeased #5

I can't remember. Is Superman a zombie or Wonder Woman?

Oh sure. Now that it's a smoking hole, it's suddenly "our" city!

Flash, Wonder Woman, and Superman wage war on the Internet by attacking its foundations. That's the only way to win: by disabling servers, satellites, and underwater transatlantic cables. Otherwise you're just feeding the trolls. Imagine if Superman left a comment telling me I needed to stop blogging because I was endangering the lives of everyone on Earth. He'd be met with a harsh "Go away, dum-dum!" and it would serve him right! The world's survivors need a place to survive so the heroes choose Paradise Island and Gotham City. Sure, Gotham City was going to be covered in nuclear fallout soon but it was currently a jungle safe haven built by Poison Ivy. I'm sure she has plants that can protect against radiation, like sunflowers, Black Orchids, and Swamp Things. Oh, there was one other place that was a safe haven: the Fortress of Solitude.

But it's apparently only for VIPs.

Imagine being the Amazons of Paradise Island and reluctantly allowing refugees of man's world onto the island only to find out that Superman wasn't letting any normals into his home. I'd be fucking pissed! And for good reason even if a bunch of Magic the Gathering playing, turd licking, Watchmen-series dissing hatebeards were all, "Oh! Look how emotional the women are getting!" Poison Ivy makes some rules about not harming plants for people to stay in Gotham Jungle. I hope the Amazons have rules about not arguing about how a Maze of Ith interacts with a Serra Angel and shutting the fuck up about not-all-men. While arguing about whether or not the humans need to flee Earth, Lex Luthor claims he's the most intelligent person on the planet. He then double checks to make sure Batman's dead before repeating the claim. I don't think this is Lex admitting that Batman is smarter than he is. Sure, it's Tom Taylor trying to admit that! I just think Lex Luthor knows there are several people smarter than him but only Batman could figure out who they are. Like Doctor Smarty Pants the Omniologist that Scott Lobdell created during his Superman run. Why can't I remember her name?! She must have been smarter than Luthor! Although everybody Scott Lobdell wrote was supposedly a genius. Imagine thinking you're smart enough to write a realistic genius! Only a dum-dum could be that dumb!

Lex is just the kind of guy to blame a baby for the loss of its homeworld. Dick.

How many tacos do you think Lex could eat in one sitting? I bet it's something embarrassingly small like three. Sans salsa too. Of course Lois Lane punches Lex in the face on the next page. I was totally going to predict it because I totally expected the woman to get super emotional. Also, because the Maze of Ith targets an attacking creature, even though it explicitly states the creature untaps, the attacking creature doesn't have to be tapped for it to work on it. Everybody jerks off while Lex's nose bleeds and Superman fucks Lois softly because he's so turned on by her show of power. Also, fucking softly is the way Kryptonians fuck Earthlings hard. Lois usually can't walk for three weeks after a good soft Kryptonian fucking. Eventually, after feeling safe, zombie Martian Manhunter decided to show up to remind everybody who the most powerful DC hero really is. Sure, his weakness is super common. But nobody thought to bring any Oreos to the Fortress of Solitude. The Flash is turned into a zombie before Firestorm remembers he can make Oreos out of anything lying around and defeats J'onn easily. But now everybody is screwed because the fastest man in the world can now turn people into zombies. Also the smartest man in the world because Lex was attacked first. Mister Terrific should really think about getting his own series now that he's the smartest person on Earth. Superman flies off to stop Flash. He can't outrun him (unless it's for charity, I guess) so he flies around the world the opposite way and smashes right through him. Superman winds up with a few of Flash's fingers stuck in him so now he's infected too! He goes to the Fortress to say a bunch of insipid goodbyes to his family at super speed (Wally connects them to the Speed Force to make it possible. Or whatever) and then tries to fly into space to die in a vacuum. But before he can make it, he turns into a zombie. So I guess everybody is fucked, right? Unless Batman taught Damian how to kill Superman. Unless the last page of this issue, where Superman turns back to Earth and blasts it with his heat vision, is Superman doing the smart thing and incinerating Damian from a safe distance. DCeased #5 Rating: This series is so good your mama wouldn't stop reading it while I carried her groceries in from the car. Zing!

Whumptober Day 18!

Link to the Ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/34210837/chapters/86071141

Title: Sprained Ribs - Clark

Prompt: No. 18 ‘The Doctor Is In’ - “Now Smile for the camera”, doctor’s visit, CPR

Word Count: 969

Clark shut the bathroom door behind himself and took a deep, shaking breath to calm his nerves - not that it would help. It’d been a good half-hour since the accident but he still felt like his veins were on fire with the amount of adrenaline pumping through them, and the rest of him didn’t feel much better either.

He stared at his reflection in the mirror above the sink, wincing when he saw the scrape on his cheek and the dirt coating his hair and blue Kryptonian suit. Slowly, because he was still pretty sore, Clark unclipped the cape from where it was attached at his shoulders and let the fabric drop to the tiled floor while he got the top-half of the suit off. His chest was painfully tight beneath the alien garment, and he quickly discovered why.

A large, angry-looking bruise covered a good portion of his left side, his skin clouded red and purple in the area of damage. To make it worse, without the support of the tight Kryptonian suit to hold it in place, Clark was pretty sure he could feel part of his ribcage shifting uncomfortably with every breath he took. This couldn’t be good.

It hurt, and though it didn’t hurt badly, considering that he rarely ever got hurt in the first place, Clark was in a bit of pain since he wasn’t all too used to it. He was about eighty-percent sure he had broken something, especially since the last time he had been in this much pain was when he broke his wrist during the battle with General Zod in downtown Metropolis (though that had healed quickly enough to not need any medical treatment besides being gentle with it). But this… this might need a doctor.

He was at the farmhouse in Smallville, so the nearest doctor would be Dr. Whitaker at the clinic a few miles away, though Clark’s parents had decidedly stopped taking him there for checkups when his first ‘powers’ started developing at age eight due to his Kryptonian physiology. There wasn’t exactly any physician Clark could trust with the knowledge of who or what he was, and even if he did know a trustworthy doctor there was still the issue of differences in treating Kryptonians and humans for injuries.

Scratch that, Clark did know a trustworthy doctor who knew how to deal with Kryptonian medical emergencies, and said doctor happened to be about ten feet away on the other side of the wall, currently scrubbing out the inside of the fridge while she cleaned the farmhouse kitchen.

Darcie had admitted to him once that she was a certified combat medic specialist, and though Clark still wasn’t quite sure what that meant, she had assured him that it was almost the same thing as being a doctor at the ER (or close enough that the actual difference would never be too much of an issue for him). He had seen her work once or twice before, and Clark had to admit, she was pretty good at administering emergency care in high-stress environments (such as ice-encased scout ships and downtown war zones). Long story short, Darcie could probably figure out why he was having trouble taking deep breaths.

Clark sighed tiredly and opened his mouth to shout for her (not that he needed to raise his voice since both of them could hear a heartbeat on the other side of the country), “Darcie?”

He had expected her to take a moment or two to set her cleaning tools aside and come ask what he needed, but to his surprise, the expected knock came on the door before her name was even half out of his mouth. Clark, being a gentleman, opened the bathroom door to see Darcie standing there with her dark hair tied up in a messy bun, a surprisingly domestic-looking sunflower-patterned apron tied around her waist, and a pair of bright orange rubber gloves covering her arms almost up to the elbow.

“I’m just grabbing the extra bottle of bleach,” she explained quickly, absently pulling one of the gloves off of her hand, “The one in the kitchen is empty and I know your mom keeps another under the bathroom sink- ”

Darcie stopped, blinking slowly as she took in the sight of him half-undressed, pretty banged-up, and smiling apologetically at her from his seat on the closed toilet. She stared back, her eyes widening ever-so-slightly when she noticed the large bruise forming on the left side of his chest, “How the fuck did you do that?”

Clark paused, chuckling nervously despite himself, “Um-”

His would-be answer was cut off as he groaned in pain, Darcie having moved to stand beside him and press her hands along his exposed back and left side in a quick rhythm until she located the damaged ribs near the bottom of his chest. A frown crossed her features when Clark gasped raggedly, and she pressed a little harder on the bones to confirm her suspicions. “Three of these are sprained, Boy Scout. You’re just lucky nothing broke. What did you do - collapse a building on top of yourself again?”

Clark couldn’t help but smile at her mother-henning, and put a protective hand over his throbbing side before she could poke him again. “It was just a flying accident, I promise.”

It hadn’t been anything serious - he’d just come into the headwind at the wrong angle and lost control, resulting in a crash into yet another mountainside (Clark was pretty good at flying, but he still hadn’t quite got the hang of dealing with sudden changes in weather). Darcie must have guessed as much and wrinkled her nose in response - the polite equivalent of rolling her eyes in his direction - and shook her head, “Stay put. I’ll get you an ice pack.”
