The entire time I read this book, a thought kept coming to my mind: “This is poetry. This is a book of poems. The characters speak in poems. This is a love letter to poetry.” And I don’t think I’ve ever had a thought that absolutely correct before.

It’ll probably be explored in the next novel I think. The author brought up the White Star’s motives so much I can’t help but believe there must be something more to it.

I really wanna know what drove whitestar into breaking the curse….like the dude apparently held the dragon slayer village precious to him, so what exactly made him think breaking the curse was a good idea.

We also don’t know why he wanted to make Cale a dragon slayer and why he created another place identical to that village.

I know that Cale said that there was no need to understand a bastard like him but who doesn’t want to know the reason for all of this shit show.

I’ve noticed more repeatedly in the past couple of weeks that some members of the fandom are more increasingly stepping over the line into parasociality and they aren’t being challenged because their parasociality is currently convenient for the fandom space…seen this before…

Let it be clear that I’m not trying to condemn anyone, I just think as a fandom we should be more wary of certain patterns

I feel like I need to say this, because the show has done a kinda bad job at explaining it and some people seem genuinely confused: At this point William has canonically in-universe been working with the Superfriends for at least over a month now, possibly more. That’s why he seems so integrated and knowledgeable about them, because he genuinely has been around for a bit; obviously not as long as the other Superfriends but still.

Also, it has to be pointed out that even before he started working with them, the Superfriends already knew and liked William. It was for the purpose of trying to make the William/Kara ship happen, so anyone would be forgiven for forgetting, I did, I literally just remembered as I was writing this. However, in order to make sense of this, it is still important to acknowledge the written canon no matter how annoying it is.

P.S. This is NOT in support of the writers writing his character into scenes that would be better suited for the other Superfriends to handle just so they can add emotional weight to his character. I’m just explaining why the actual characters within the show, the Superfriends, are so friendly and open with him.

The biggest problem with the bar scene theory is that the entire point of the courage totem was that Kara had to do something that she didn’t have the courage to do at that time. In order for the theory to be true, Kara would have had to have noticed Lena all the way back then and then avoided talking to her because she lacked the courage to do so. Also, I’m not entirely sure about this but hadn’t Lena not moved to National City yet? Not trying to step on toes, it’s a good theory but I’m just skeptical.

I just wanna say people are obviously allowed to be upset that Supercorp isn’t getting more screen time…however some people are essentially acting like it’s nonsensical that they would have character development outside of spending time with each other.

I want more SC moments too but it’s an ensemble show. It’s not just about them. Other characters need and deserve time to develop and have fulfilling storylines as well. We all want our endgame but the canonization of the ship shouldn’t come at the cost of characters’ development.

Reign and red daughter were good villains but part of what made them good was the fact that they were complex and each had whole seasons dedicated to covering them and exploring their nuance.

It would’ve been nice to see them but there’s no way that they could’ve been properly utilized alongside a gaggle of other villains or even with just each other. They would’ve felt two-dimensional and that doesn’t do either character justice.

I know you guys would’ve liked to see them in theory, but I promise it wouldn’t have played out on the screen the way you would’ve wanted.

These parallels are becoming too much...

This episode kind of solidified something that I have been thinking on for the past couple of weeks or so. Someone mentioned on Twitter that Lena is the one of the only relationships that Kara has actively chosen over and over again, and I thought about it and it’s absolutely true.

Her relationships with James, Mon-El, and William, all in their own way have some sort of compulsive measure to them. With James it’s implied that there was a there was some notion of “it should have made sense” but when it didn’t it fizzled out and wasn’t really revisited.

With Mon-El it’s implied that the initial attraction was because of interest in a new alien or was born out of a feeling of not belonging and that dynamic is played on. After he comes back after she sent him away, she chooses not to go back to that relationship. Even when she went back in the past in 5x13, she didn’t dwell on their relationship. In fact, she talked to him in order to get advice on Lena.

With William she literally she tries to avoid their date multiple times and is told by her friends and family that she should give it a try but it was not born out of an actual desire to do so herself.

But when it comes to Lena she has made the active choice over and over again to continue to solidify and build that relationship. In fact, her friends and family at times actively promoted against the building of that relationship. Alex, James, and generally everyone in her life didn’t trust Lena because she was a Luthor and Kara constantly fought against them, proving over and over again that that was the relationship that she wanted to keep for herself, that she chose for herself.

This episode definitely solidified that for me. They go out of their way to highlight the importance of Kara making choices for her future and not being locked into them, and I can hardly think of any more solid of a choice that she has made for what she absolutely wants in her future than Lena.

Pretty in line with how I see things, especially regarding the “choices” element. Because when Kara comes back from PZ, she’s going to have some choices to make because she’s likely to have a new outlook on life and be figuring out once and for all what she truly wants most. And who. And yes, she DOES want a who. Any other hero I’m cool with “women don’t need a love interest” but Kara has SAID (twice with passion in S1) she wants one. And even Eliza called her out in S3 when she basically pretended she was happy with her choice and sacrificing the ability to have love in her life, given her heroics, when Eliza said “You don’t seem happy.”

Anyway, with Kenny, some may say she “chose him” in the end by saying “Come with me?”... but, he was an after thought. He was just the cherry on top she thought she might be able to have, not the sundae she really wanted. She wanted to go to NCU, whether he came or not. And it also happened after endless back and forth, driven always by outside circumstances and a call to destiny, more than any true need to be with him. She was absolutely ready to drop him and go to NCU, then after thinking she could hang out in Midvale Super-ing in fun adventures with him (more about fulfilling her desire/destiny to help people than be with him), she was back to thinking she’d stay and go ahead and have a life with him. Then she got a glimpse at that life and basically (with some pain, because of course she cared about him) said “See ya.”

Like Mon-El before him, Kara “loved” Kenny in that simplistic, “I want a companion, but can ultimately live without this person and won’t fight to keep them in my life” sort of way. Just another person she helped become a better person because that’s what she does for everybody (though Mon-El really didn’t become THAT much better in some ways). She brought some light and inspiration to them, sure, and that’s great. But what did they bring to her, really? As a teen she was lonely and not feeling like she belonged and he was a great companion, just like as an adult when everyone else paired up and found love and she was feeling lonely, Mon-El was... there. But that’s not true love. That’s not a true partner. That’s not a true soulmate. Comparatively, you have Lena, whom they have quite literally shown us as of 6x01 is Kara’s sun. Kara’s light. Kara was Kenny’s light, he said it himself. But Lena is Kara’s light. They literally showed us this in 5x17 with the light stream framing on Lena in the fortress, and with the “Lena Luthor Protocol” saving Kara with sunlight. 

Meanwhile like you said, again and again and again Kara has chosen Lena. She’s fought to keep Lena in her life and has made it clear she cannot and will not live without her (literally at times, since Lena saves her life almost as much as she saves Lena’s). No matter the sacrifice. No matter the stakes. She will turn back time for her, die for her, kill for her. Lena is her true love. Lena is her true partner. Lena is her true soulmate. 

So again, what the hell will they do with this PERFECT, slow burn set up of Supercorp Endgame? Just let it all be queerbait and pointlessness? TBD.

I understand why everyone is so worried about this whole Kenny situation, but seriously you all have to calm down. I completely understand where all the apprehension is coming from, but you also can’t spiral every time a piece of information is offered that makes some endgame possibility tangentially feasible.

If we stop to think about it, Kenny as an endgame doesn’t even make any sense. For one thing this isn’t our Kara’s memories or timeline. Our Kara is a Paragon, her memories are of Earth 38. She is not going to be affected by events that occur on the timeline of Earth Prime’s Kara.

Even for the people theorizing that maybe she’ll somehow remember because of the Phantom Zone messing up her memories, there is a difference between a lived experience and someone else’s memory. The idea that an endgame can just be built by another persons memories—from when they were a teenager no less—doesn’t make sense.

And I understand that you can’t stop thinking about “What if they brought back Kenny as a love interest to make him Kara’s endgame?”

What if they brought back MonEl from the future so that he could sweep her off her feet and randomly take her away?

What if James came back and Kara decided to give him another chance?

What if William comes in and saves Kara from the Phantom Zone, and he manages to completely make Kara swoon and she just wants to spend the rest of her life with him?

Hell, what if Winn comes back from the future and tries to date Kara?

These are all “possibilities” that in context are all equally unlikely to happen. I get not trusting the show and it’s writers, but there is a complete difference between being hesitant/cautious vs operating by a hair trigger and allowing the smallest piece of inconvenience to convince you that the worst possible scenario is going to happen.

#supercorp #supergirl #kara danvers #lena luthor #just wait till next week at minimum before you decide to spiral

[newtoniannn]

What if when Brainy and Nia try to return to the future, they overshoot it again, and travel a month, or even a year from when they left? And Kara’s just been in the Phantom Zone alone for all that time?

#supercorp #supergirl #kara danvers #braniac 5 #nia nal #oh my god the angst #holy shit what if they actually do it #they don’t have the range #or do they? #what if her memories are so messed up she doesn’t even remember anyone? #“Kara we’re here to help you #“who are you?

[newtoniannn]

The way we could’ve had Lena and Alex searching Kara’s apartment for any trace of DNA she might’ve left behind, only for Lena to stumble into a box of tapes with her name on it. The same tapes that Mxy left behind from the 100th episode. Lena asks Alex what’s on the tapes and Alex tells her it’d make more sense if she watches them herself. So, Lena watches the tapes and understands everything Kara tried to do to save their relationship....we could’ve been eating good

#supercorp #lena luthor #kara danvers #alex danvers #supergirl #mxy #imagine #this reunion better be earth shattering

[newtoniannn]

When Lena sees Kara again and runs into her arms to welcome her back, and Kara doesn’t respond and asks “Who are you?” because her memories are so messed up, then what?

#supercorp #supergirl #lena luthor #kara danvers #I’m suffering #what if this actually happens #it’d be soul crushing #what if the opposite happens #what if Lena is the only one she remembers #now I’m clowning #this reunion better be earth shattering

i need you all to look at this as closely as i did so you can spot lena’s tear falling down after brainy says i miss her

[newtoniannn]

PARDON?!!!

♥️ Happy Birthday Lena Luthor ♥️

You can only reblog this today

I feel like people may be coming to the wrong conclusion about 6x04’s synopsis. The way that I read it, from the language used, it sounds like Lena disagrees with the best plan of action and the difference between her plan and their plan causes Lena to question whether or not she belongs with the Superfriends. I get that it can be interpreted multiple ways but I think people are kind of jumping the g*n with the “The Superfriends are trying to isolate Lena again” rhetoric. Plus it makes more sense narratively. Lena had moments in 6x01 where she questioned whether or not she deserved the trust that Kara was putting in her. Fortunately Kara was there to reassure her, but now that she’s not? It makes sense that she’d question herself.
