Rambling Down the Boulevard,

Title: two young, savage things (barely worth remembering)
Fandom: Supergirl
Characters: Kara Danvers & Lex Luthor
Summary: Lex gets an answer to a question he's been very good about not asking. coda to more seats reserved for heroes
Notes: Currently 3rd in the dear forgiveness, series. title from damn these vampires by the mountain goats. As I've said before writing in order is for smucks. Still haven't the finished (or written) the bits where Kara makes friends with Lex or becomes a vigilante or sets up her fortress of solitude. But sure have this contextless bit of reveal. Which I actually wrote before more seats. Oops.

Read it on AO3

Day 8
In your own space, post self-recs for at least three fanworks that you created. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
AKA shameless self-promotion day. SO three fanworks.

1. history's longest suicide note: Netflix!Castlevania. OT3 fic that ignores episode 8 and also the apocalypse happens. Incomplete. 2/?? published. This is my latest project and one I'm pretty excited about. It's also the single fic I've written the most words for so that's cool. 
2. dear forgiveness,: A Supergirl AU series where Kara is nine years late instead of twenty-five and is raised by the Kents alongside Clark. It's a verse that I have a ton of ideas for and plan on returning to over time and adding to it. 
3. thursday's child: this is a one shot where I codified all my feelings about Skye Daisy Johnson's background and tried to justify the season 3 name switch.

Does anybody ever think about the fact that when Kara looks up at the stars she can still find Krypton?

She can calculate the distance in her head, thinks of space in lightyears, and still she can find Krypton in the stars unerringly. Krypton will be amongst the stars over Earth for decades after it’s destruction.

Do you ever think that Kara did the math? She knows the date of Kryptons destruction to the nanosecond. She was there, witnessing, unable to do anything. Somethings can’t be forgotten. The equation isn’t that hard, not for a girl raised in the future, not when she knows exactly how far she’s traveled. Solve for x, when x is the exact time Krypton will vanish over Earth, to the nanosecond.

She lost so much in the Phantom Zone, and this is one more thing, the two decades of time when she can still imagine her planet whole, can still see it with her own two eyes.

Do you ever think about how she thinks about time counting down in the back of her mind, how it’s running away from her?
