Like You - Conner Kent

Conner Kent X Fem!Reader

Summary: You want to become a hero like Conner but Conner doesn't approve and an argument sparks.

Word Count: 1,306

The sun dips below the city skyline, casting long shadows in your bedroom. You can't help but think about how much you want to become a hero, like your boyfriend, Conner. You tried to bring it up with him once but he immediately shut you down, not wanting to continue the conversation any further. Since then, you haven't tried to bring it up again. Until now.

As you sit on the edge of the bed, you wait anxiously for Conner to come into the room. Conner opens the door and walks in, looking tired after a long day, evident by the dark circles under his eyes. "Look, Conner, I get this might not be the best time but we need to talk about something," you say, not wanting to put this conversation off for any longer.

Conner glances at you with a mixture of exhaustion and concern. "Can't it wait? I've had a rough day and I'm not in the mood for this," he replies, starting to head towards the bathroom. You stand up, determined to address what's been bothering you for so long. "No, Conner, it can't wait. This is important to me and all I want is for you to just hear me out."

Conner stops in his tracks, turning to face you with a sigh. "Fine. Just tell me what it is so we can get it over with," he responds.

Taking a deep breath, you meet Conner's gaze. "I know what you said last time but I still haven't changed my mind. I want to be a hero, like you. But I need your support with this because I can't do it alone."

Conner's expression tightens with a mix of frustration and worry. "Y/N, we've been through this before. I can't stand the thought of you getting hurt out there. It's not as glamorous as it seems, trust me," he says, his voice tinged with slight irritation.

"And I get where you're coming from but this is something that I want to do. I want to make a difference, just like you do," you state, your determination unwavering.

Conner runs a hand through his tousled hair, his exhaustion evident. "Have you even thought about the risks or the constant danger? You have to be more naive than I thought if you think I'm going to let you go out and risk your life just like that!" he exclaims.

You cross your arms, frustration building. "Okay, so what if I'm naive? At least I know what I want and I won't stop until I get it," you pause for a second but continue, "Conner, I'm willing to learn, to train. I just need you to believe in me."

"I said no, Y/N. This conversation ends here. I don't want to hear any more of your bullshit," he responds firmly, his tone leaving no room for any nonsense.

The room falls silent as Conner's words hang in the air. The tension between you is palpable as you say, "You know what? I don't care. I don't need your permission and you can't stop me."

Conner's jaw clenches, and his eyes narrow with frustration. "You're being reckless, Y/N. This isn't a game," he retorts, his voice rising. "I've seen the worst of it, and I won't let you just throw yourself into this lifestyle. It's dangerous, more than you can handle."

Even with Conner's words, you refuse to back down. "I can handle myself. I'm not as weak as you think." It's true though. Conner acts like you're this little 'damsel in distress' who can't fight her own fights. It's nice that he's trying to protect you but sometimes it's really unnecessary.

Conner's frustration boils over, and he raises his voice, "Y/N, you're not listening! This isn't about underestimating you; it's about knowing the reality of what it means to be a hero. It's not just about strength. It's about sacrifice, not that you would know. Y/N, if I say no, it means no. You're not doing it - for your own good."

You continue to stand your ground, a fire in your eyes. "I'm not going to live my life based on your fears. If I want to become a hero, I'm going to do it, Conner. The only reason I talked to you about this is so I could get some support or understanding from you but that's obviously not happening so I'm leaving," you say and then walk out of the room, frustration and determination fueling your steps. Conner watches you go, torn between worry and stubbornness.

The front door slams behind you, signalling to Conner that you've seriously left to god knows where. Conner stands alone in the room, frustration etched on his face. He runs a hand through his hair, the echo of the slamming door resonating in the silence.

As you make your way through the city streets, the cool night air does little to calm your nerves. The conversation with Conner replays in your mind, making you regret walking out on him. You know you shouldn't have left mid-argument but you couldn't keep going. You weren't going to change Conner's mind so what's the point?

Meanwhile, Conner paces the room, his mind wrestling with the conflict. He knows the dangers of the hero's life all too well, and the thought of you willingly stepping into that kind of danger gnaws at him. Despite the anger, there's a genuine concern for you.

A couple of hours later, Conner's worry intensifies as he realizes you haven't returned. He grabs his phone and dials your number, his frustration is evident in the way he anxiously taps his foot while waiting for you to answer. The phone rings in the quiet room as Conner anxiously waits for your response. Each passing second feels like an eternity, and he can't shake the worry that has settled in his chest.

After several unanswered calls, a wave of concern washes over him. Why aren't you answering? Is it the argument? Was he too harsh? Are you safe? Are you hurt?

On the other side of the city, you lie unconscious in a dark alley, a result of an unexpected encounter with a low-level villain whose name you don't know.

Conner's worry turns to panic as the realization hits him that something might have happened to you. Abandoning his frustration, he quickly puts on his jacket and dashes out of the apartment, determined to find you.

Back in the alley, you start to regain consciousness, feeling a dull ache in your head. As you open your eyes, the dimly lit surroundings come into focus, and you remember the encounter with the villain. You attempt to sit up but wince in pain.

Conner speeds through the city, his concern fueling his speed. He scans the streets, listening for any signs of distress. Finally, he hears a faint groan and rushes towards the source. Finding you in the alley, Conner's relief mixes with frustration. He kneels down beside you, gently checking for injuries. "Y/N, what were you thinking? I told you it's not safe out here," he scolds, his protective instincts taking over.

With a mixture of pain and frustration evident in your voice, you say, "I can take care of myself, Conner. I don't need you to—" Conner cuts you off, his tone stern. "Enough of this. We'll talk about it later. Right now, let's get you home and make sure you're okay." He carefully lifts you in his arms, carrying you back to the apartment.

As he sets you down gently on the couch, Conner can't help but let out a frustrated sigh. "I can't believe you pulled something like this. We'll discuss everything when you're feeling better, but for now, rest and let me take care of you."

BBQ at the Kent's

Clark invites his friends over for a quiet BBQ at Ma's farm. It just doesn't go quite how he expected.

Masterlist

........................................................................

Clark had invited his closest friends and their underlings to a BBQ at Kent farm. So what if his closest friends, all happened to be from the Justice League. Kent Farm was a perfect location. It was out the way so if power mishaps it was unlikely to be observed by anyone passing by. It was a large space so could hold lots of people. Especially as his friends seemed to have a habit of collecting underlings like Pokémon, in particular Bruce. AND it wasn't Wayne manor which despite what Bruce says isn't always a relaxing place to be.

Ma was catching up with Alfred and Lois which was good, Alfred deserved a medal as well as the chance to relax. The teens and kids were mucking about/chilling in the house, and he could catch up with his colleague slash friends and relax.

What he may have miscalculated though was his little sister returning home to see Ma. She knew about him and his 'side job'. She had also, very early on, figured out his friends ‘side jobs’ too. Working it out was a breeze according to her, they weren’t particularly discrete in the beginning (according to her at least). She had covered for him and saved his bacon more times than he would willingly admit. Hell, she's covered for him to them and covered for them without them knowing. She’d provided so many alibis and removed evidence that they hadn’t thought about. The issue though, with his sister turning up, was more that THEY a) didn't know about her and b) didn't know that she knew and finally c) she could quite easily give them all a run for their money.

___________________________________

Walking into her family home she found a swarm of teens lounging around the living room. They were all chatting and talking over each other that they didn't notice her enter. Raising an eyebrow, she spotted Conner, who was currently wrapped around another boy with dark hair.

"Hey Mini Bale! Nice look you got going. Bet it's driving the old men mad and completely beats the plaid shirts and starched suits. Is Haybale out in the yard?"

Conner jumped, causing the others in the room to stop chatting, and looks to see his sort of aunt smirking at him across the room.

"Hey M, didn't know you were coming too? Yeah Clarks out back. Ummm….. why are you here?"

"This is my home too Mini Bale.” She deadpans him, “I was planning to surprise to see Ma as not visited in person for a while. I don’t need to tell Haybale every time I visit, he isn’t the boss of me.” Conner’s aunt pouted before gaining a glint in her eye, “What I wasn't expecting to see was Haybale having a "small gathering” here and not invite moi! But alas it is what it is."

The glint turning into a smug look with a dangerous edge as she took in the room.

"Auntie M!!!", the call distracted her from the room suddenly as Jon ran in from the kitchen and launched himself into a flying jump to hug with the women standing in the room. "Straw stack!! How are you doing sweetie? Made any new friends?"

While Jon dissolved into conversation with his Auntie, Tim took the opportunity to quickly assess the newly dubbed Em. She was well dressed, the sort you don't often see on farms and would be better placed in the city. Her clothes were expensive, the type he often could see board members wearing when relaxing. Even with Jon holding her attention she seemed to have clocked him studying her and nearly everyone else who was watching her interactions. Leaning into his boyfriend he queried.

"Em? Does she? Is she? Who???"

Conner chuckled at Tim's confusion, as well as the mystified faces of the others there.

"Tim, guys, I'd like to introduce you to Clark's sister, and my sorta aunt and Jon’s definite Auntie, Marinette. M for short. And before you ask Tim, no she isn’t like him. She *does* works with Max Kante in developing high tech material and gadgets since well she grew up with Clark and wanted to help him cope with his powers… She and Max created MiracuTech as a result. It’s her brainchild though really, M doesn’t really need Max."

"Mini Bale stop!! You’re dramatizing it. I need Max just as much as he needs me, our skill set complement each other. We couldn’t make half the stuff MiracuTech does without his input.” Marinette blushed, “Max says hi by the way and to tell you to pop by the office. He wants to test his new “creation” with you. Not that that offer will remain if you keep speaking of him like that. But it does remind me, how are you finding the glasses?"

It was Conner’s turn to smirk at his friends, and they could suddenly see the family resemblance in the pair.

"They're are awesome M. Like the play back function is brilliant. I've recorded so much blackmail."

His friends paused and a shiver went down their spines recalling all the incidents that have happened since Conner got his latest sunglasses.

"Fab feedback. I'll let Max know.” Taking as glance around the room, “I'm gonna take a wild guess as say Battle Barbie, Fishtails, Greedy Gonzales and Moody & Broody are out back with Haybale and Ma, Mini Bale?"

That again caused the room to freeze, being siblings with Clark kinda made sense that she would have known his identity, but for Clark to tell her about other identities was worrying. Conner tilted his head and looked at his sorta aunt as if trying to work out what she was planning.

"Yeeeeah, what are you up to M? I'm pretty sure you promised Clark you'd not cause mischief when you met everyone."

"I deny ever making that promise. I have evidence to back up that claim too. Plus, the amount of shit Haybale has caused me cos of his moral compass and lack of impulse control makes it fair game. Though I do support his altruism.” She paused debating what she would say next, “To set the record straight what I *actually* promised was that I would *consider* not causing *too much* mischief. And I have considered it and think that I'll survive this course of action. You’re not the only one with playback ability. Thanks for the info Mini Bale. Let's catch up more later!"

With that she ruffled his hair as she walked past him out to see her dear older brother.

"You've spent too much time as a cat M!" Conner called as he tried to sort out his hair. The room erupted as she left the room. Confusion, mild panic as to whether their identities were at risk and answers were demanded from Conner and Jon. Tim whined at Conner’s comment, "Cat?! We've got to keep B away from her!"

___________________________________

Out in the yard, Clark was relaxed surround by what he supposed was the founding JL members. He'd heard his sister turn up and cause subtle chaos amongst the teens in the house slowly dreading her announcing her arrival out here. Ma would be thrilled to see her. He was too, sort of. Just not in front of everyone. Kon-El was right with her spending too much time as a cat. And Tim was right as well. He'd have to keep Bruce away from her, she'd be just his latest type.

"HAY BALE! You're holding a party for little ol' me?! How delightful of you."

Clark cringed. He still hated her nickname for him.

"Lois! Ma! You both look lovely as ever! Oh, it’s been too long since I've seen you in person."

Marinette swooped past Clark to the ladies and gave them huge hugs before quickly falling into conversation to catching up with them, thankfully ignoring Clark allowing him some time to deal with his friends.

"Why is Marinette K from MiracuTech at your farm Clark?"

Barry quickly asked, staring at his sister with stars in his eyes. Ok maybe it wasn't just Bruce Clark had to worry about.

"Yes, why is the Guardian, Lady Fortune, at your home?" queried Arthur looking at Clark with confusion and slight apprehension.

"MiracuTech… Guardian," Diana quickly put together gasping, looking at Arthur who had cottoned on to her implications as well, then back at Marinette.

"Guys! Please! Cool it, M I hope," Clark quickly glared at his sister, who was grinning manically knowing the trouble she was causing for him, "can answer your questions and Barry, M, Marinette, is my sister. Why wouldn't she come here? Though this wasn't planned visit that I was aware of."

"You have a sister."

Bruce stated, as Diana and Arthur wondered off talking in hushed tones. Clark could hear that they had figured out one of her 'other' identities but was content that they wouldn't add drama for the moment he redirected his attention back to Bruce.

Clark sighed tiredly, "yes, I have a sister, Bruce. Who likes to keep her personal life private. Which is why you guys have just found out about her and not before."

"Is she Kryptonian?"

"Bruce!! you can't ask Clark that!!" Barry exclaimed, not really surprised by his bluntness but still Alfred was about, and he was ‘Bruce’ currently so social etiquettes, and all should be observed.

"What can't Moody & Broody ask Haybale, Greedy Gonzales?" Marinette enquired, a picture of planned innocence, as she snuck up on them. She gave Clark a side hug and a ‘knowing’ sibling smile.

"M… please… stop with that nickname. Bruce was just asking if you were adopted as well."

"Fine!" She rolled her eyes, "Boy Scout it is then. Moody & Broody I'm not adopted. Ma and Pa had me as a 'Surprise! you're pregnant’ a few years after they'd adopted Boy Scout here"

Bruce frowned at the names she'd been given them. While she just gave a facade of innocence, she held a glint in her eye that destroyed the illusion along with the names she was giving everyone.

Ignoring Clark and Bruce, Marinette turned to Barry to discuss his work at S.T.A.R labs and potential collaboration with MiracuTech. Clark internally groaned as he watched his sister get animated about some sort of tech project she wanted to discuss.

Bruce observed the interaction. It was clear that she knew more than she was letting on. Though he had done research on his peers to know their weaknesses and strengths, Clark having a younger sister never came up. How he had hidden her was impressive, unless it was herself who had hidden her existence from him… That was worrying causing Bruce to deepen his frown as he watched Barry and Marinette chat.

Clark joined in frowning at the pair, but because of how was Barry flirting with his BABY sister before he started to groan as it seemed to go completely over her head. She still seemed to be oblivious to those around her liking her slightly more than friendship.

"M! Ma's told you before no business talk at home."

Laughing back at him his sister nodded "We’ll have to continue this discussion another day maybe Greedy Gonzalez, when Boy Scout isn't being all boy scout-y and acting like a golden child."

Seeing an opportunity Diana butted in and 'subtly' tried to guide Marinette to where she was sitting with Arthur. "Lady Fortune, it's an honour to meet you in person. My mother has told many a tale of our mutual friends’ legacy"

"M is fine. Lady is much too formal for my liking right Ms Prince? Our friends have told me much about your mother as well Battle Barbie. But I must say I'd be more interested to hear about your curator work at the Louvre" Allowing herself to be led away.

___________________________________

Bruce gave Clark a patented batglare, "She knows." Clark rubbed his neck before back at Bruce.

"Yes. She knows. She's my sister. It's kinda hard to hide learning how to manage superpowers from family you know. It was her and Pa that helped find solutions to manage the powers. Lead glasses… her idea."

Growling at Clarks response. "She knows ours. You told her"

Taking a deep breath, "No Bruce.” Clark sighed out, praying to the god’s his sister cared for, for the patience to deal with his paranoid friend, “I didn't. She's smart. Ridiculously and stupidly smart but that's aside. She *knows* who I am. She follows my career, like I do hers. She knows who I work with, like I know who she works with. And who my friends are. The info is all there to work it out. She's also got me out of tight spots as an alibi way too often. I'm pretty sure this is opportunistic revenge for it. Especially for all she did before Lois *knew*"

"Oh god it was her calling you at the watch tower that made you pale. Not Ma Kent!!" Barry cackled, "She's the one you're scared of!!"

"Ssshhhhh Barry! Yes! She terrifies me. Much more than little sisters should. You do realise she has covered all your butts more than you think too. Remember she is a tech genius, she works *with other* tech genius’s and we, sometimes in a rush in the early days, forgot about cameras and visuals lining up."

Barry paled at that. Bruce on the other hand looked intrigued. Of course, her problem solving, and detective skills would attract him. "How long has she known?"

"Mine, since forever and never told anyone. Yours, as she has never said anything directly, I’m going to guess since we worked together the first times. I don’t really know for how long, but it’s been since the early days. You don’t need to worry though; she understands the need for secrets and how to keep them. This,” Clark says waving his hand around, “is her way to letting you know she knows without stating it. It’s definitely her subtle form of revenge on me for having to hack large corporations and delete footage or claiming that I was with her visiting so couldn’t get caught out.”

Clark turned to Bruce all serious, “Don’t antagonise or integrate her. Please Bruce! She can and will break into the Batcomputer and cause it to run slow and force your phones and alarms to only play baby shark.”

“So, she’s the one who helped you hack LexCorp to get the evidence required for your latest article”

“That’s what you got from that?! That my genius *baby* sister sometimes, might, maybe, help gather evidence to take down corrupt businessmen and politicians?! Not the fact that you shouldn’t wind her up!!”

“Well I know your tech skills aren’t up to scratch and though there was potential for Lois, it doesn’t really fit her MO so its nice to know how you truly do it. Do you think she would tell us how she hacked into JL main computer and the bat computer? Or be willing to assist in building better protection.”

Clark stared at Bruce, and was about to respond, but before he could Diana caught his eye as she knelt before M holding her hand. Stars in Diana’s eyes while Arthur looked like he was going to faint.

He groaned. Now, Diana!

His baby sister was really trying to stress him out with all the potential shovel talks he would need to make. The shimmer in her eyes when she briefly caught him looking at her suggested that she may be more aware that she was letting on. With the headache she was causing him, he would need a drink after all this.

Thankfully, before Marinette could cause more chaos with the Atlantean and Amazonian, her phone went off resulting in her slinking off to deal with what sounded like guardian issues from his eaves dropping giving what he thought was breathing room.

“Are you ok Arthur? Do I need to talk to M?” Clark enquired to his friend, hoping his sister hadn’t caused too much trauma for his friend.

“She can hold both sides of the balance and not succumb to the pressure or temptation. A true soul and so young. You let this all happen to your younger sister?”

Ok so she had caused some trauma for the Atlantean after all. He was certain it was related to the cat as well as the bug.

“Let is a strong word, Arthur. Forced is more appropriate. M is more stubborn than Bruce at times. And at 14... yeah hormonal teenage younger sister in Paris. My hand was forced.”

Diana and Arthur choked looking at Clark in horror, “14!?!?!”

Both Bruce and Barry raised an eye at him in judgement. Like they’re ones to talk with how young they let their mentees join the field.

“It is decided. She will be traveling with me to Themyscira and to Atlantis when Arthur puts on his ‘big boy pants’. She requires extra support in this matter.”

“14? Extra support? Diana, what are you talking about? She is in her 20’s not 14. You can’t kidnap Clark’s sister, Can she?”

Barry looked perplexed by the situation. Unsure on what they are talking about. She seemed to be fine and had survived years without assistance and knowing about their identities. Going to Themyscira and Atlantis would not help with that.

Staring at Clark with an unnerving intensity, Bruce answered Barry’s questions.

“She was one of the Parisian heroes. Their leader from what Diana and Arthur are suggesting. She started her extracurricular activities before even we officially did, much younger than we were and Clark didn’t stop her.”

“Oh.... Wait?! You didn’t stop her!!”

Clark was really regretting this BBQ. It was starting to feel more like an interrogation on his big brother skills, a judgement on his mentoring capability NOT a relaxing escape with friends.

“It would explain why Clark was so insistent of a some of the support protocols now,” Bruce mused. “She didn’t let you help and forced you stay away, didn’t she? Your powers, if you got akumatised, had the potential to cause a global disaster and the magic could have hurt you out of costume.”

“If you knew this, why are you giving me grief! And Diana, you can’t kidnap M. She has a support network already.”

“I didn’t. You just confirmed it. And more support can never hurt.”

Damn bat with his detective trickery and throwing his own arguments back in his face. Groaning in response Clark looked at his friends,

“Fine. You can ask but it’s HER choice no forcing it ok.”

After some grumbled agreements they all agreed.

___________________________________

“I hate you,”

“I love you too, Hay Bale.”

Marinette grinned at her brother with a cup of tea in hand. His friends had finally departed more than one had managed to get him to convince her to exchange numbers. She’d agreed to visit Diana when back in Paris to arrange a visit to Themyscira. It scared him how quickly after the initial interrogation and worry they all accepted her. She was bound to provide them so much blackmail on him. Clark was dreading his next JL meeting.

“You did this on purpose.”

“Not really. Ma knew I was visiting her this month. The fact you were here with everyone was just a perfect opportunity which I took up.”

Clark stared at his sister. None of her nervous tells were showing so wasn’t lying to him, not that she would. She hated secrets, and she carried so many with so many implications if they were revealed. As a result, she hated liars if there was not true reason for them.

“Fine. You do realise I have so many shovel talks now to dish out?”

“What?”

“Did you not see the heart eye’s Barry was giving? Or how Diana was constantly trying to get close? And once Bruce had assessed that you weren’t a threat, kept trying to engage you in conversation about detective stuff?”

“Oh, So, errr, they aren’t like that normally to friends?” A faint blush was making its way across Marinette’s cheeks. “I like wasn’t aware. Can I blame miraculous side effects?”

Clark laughed at his baby sister, yeah as clever as she was, she remained her wonderful blissfully ignorant self on flirting which he adored.

“Nah, they aren’t normally that friendly. Didn’t think you noticed and sure let’s blame the kwami, they caused some of this drama any way. I vote for Plagg and Trixx for being at fault.”

Bubblegum

pairing: conner kent x gn!reader

warning: zilch

a/n: when I say conner I almost always mean 90′s kon-el lmao. also this is dedicated to my one anon who asked if I wrote for 90′s kon, ily babe and yes I do lol

“Nah, that’s not how you do it.”

You made a noise of protest at the judgment in Conner’s tone, face already red from how long you had been trying to succeed in your latest mission. It offended you how hard he was trying to suppress a laugh, the corners of his mouth twitching as he tried to maintain his very, very cool demeanor. 

Okay. So clearly, it wasn’t going all that well, but that wasn’t all your fault; one would think that if you had a product literally labeled bubblegum, you’d be able to actually make a bubble with it.

But you clearly couldn’t, so if anything, it was the gum’s fault. 

Sensing your (somewhat) obvious struggle, Conner finally fully turned his attention away from the TV screen to face you, one brow arched as you attempted to blow a bubble with your bubblegum once again.

“Don’t give me that look,” you scoffed, pausing from your attempts to shoot a half-assed glare at him. “I almost got it, I had something for a sec-”

“‘Course you did, babe,” Conner agreed with an infuriatingly easy grin, already reaching over you to grab the bright pink packet sitting beside you. “I totally saw it. You were real close, just like you said you were five minutes ago-” 

“Like I said,” you interjected, continuing to aggressively chew your gum as he unwrapped a piece and tossed it into the air, catching it in his mouth like a show-off. “I almost have it-” The corners of his lips were twitching once again in his gracious attempt to keep from laughing as he watched you make another attempt. You gave him a glare while you tried again, a twinge of hopefulness rising in your chest when you started off with a meager bubble after long last - and felt said hopefulness pop along with said bubble about 0.2 seconds later. 

“So close!”

“Oh, ha ha,” you began with a huff as he finally burst out laughing, elbowing you while you tried to glare at him again. It was difficult since the whole thing was so ridiculous you couldn’t even blame him for it. “You just love seeing my misery-” 

“No, no, that’s not it!” he insisted, making a whole show of calming himself down through his laughter and wrapping an arm around your shoulders, flashing you one of his crooked, obnoxiously playful grins to show how apologetic he really was. Totally apologetic. “That was a real good start.”

“Real good start,” you repeated with a raise of your own brow, but it was hard to stay mad at him when you were still trying not to laugh yourself. “I had it, you just - you distracted me!” 

To that, he gave you an incredibly solemn nod, sighing heavily as he slipped on his glasses for absolutely no reason. Inside the house. You figured it was just for dramatic effect - he always had a theatrical flare about him without even trying.

“And I’m totally sorry about that. When you’re as sexy and charming as I am, it’s hard not to be a - hey, you can’t just leave!” 

“No, I gotta leave, Conner,” you insisted, already rising to your feet despite his protests, “I think I’m gonna hurl after hearing all that-” You burst out laughing as he yanked you right back onto the couch with just a little tug, laughing himself as you leaned over to kiss his cheek to make up for it.  

“You should see a doctor for that, babe. All I said were straight facts.” Your cough sounded suspiciously like bullshit and it was him who was trying (and failing) to level a glare at you over his glossy round shades. “Okay, so you don’t appreciate my charm and sexiness! Fine, I don’t listen to people who can’t make a bubble with bubblegum anyways-” 

“I almost did!” you protested yet again as your face flared about the same shade as your gum. “Can you do it?” Conner scoffed very loudly, as if you had personally offended him somehow. 

“I’ll do you one better! I’ll show you how to do it,” he told you, turning his head to face foward while dramatically running a hand through his meticulously-styled hair. His entire hair routine alone was about as long as your morning everything-routine. “Just watch and learn, babe.” 

Now, you had known Conner Kent had a certain level of over-confidence for just about everything he said and did since, well, the day you first met him. And as much as he was working towards getting that sorted out with help from you, his teammates, friends, and family, sometimes it was still very apparent in the things he did.

Like now.

“You just put your lips together,” he started, “and blow.” Instead of whistling, he actually managed to successfully make a bubble, raising his brows at you in a very cocky expression as he did so. “See? Easy.” You would most certainly beg to differ, but even you couldn’t help but be rather impressed by it. 

“Okay, so you can do it. Fair enough.” He was still going, the bubble steadily getting bigger and bigger while he continued to nonchalantly lounge beside you. “...Conner, you might wanna stop while you’re-” The bubblegum unceremoniously exploded over his face and your boyfriend let out a slew of very creative words that would’ve made his grandmother wash his mouth out with soap. “-ahead.” 

And it was your turn to laugh your ass off.

“I meant to do that,” Conner announced all-too loudly, the rest of his face already turning the same shade of brilliant pink the gum was as he moved to take his beloved shades off. At least they had protected his eyes. “I totally saw that coming.” Apparently, you wheezing out “so did I” was not the glowing model of support he had been anticipating, judging from his groan. “Babe!” 

At least he could find joy in knowing he taught you how to make a bubble with bubblegum.

[oreo-bixch]

I need to air out my brain so have some of my

Timkon headcanons

Kon developed a crush first. He really tried not to, but just couldn't stop himself. It was out of his control, completely smitten before he could register it

Tim just thought of them as close friends. Ironic how he's so smart and yet so oblivious to his own feelings. It wasn't until Kon came out as bi that he took a step back and realized that it was strange just how happy he was to know Kon wasn't straight.

If it were Bart coming out he'd be like "hey, nice bro" but when Kon did it he found himself thinking "omg omg omg he likes guys?? He likes guys??? Omg I'm a guy, that means he could like me. Omg wow that's so wild wow...now wait a damn minute-"

It was about 3 months of mutual pining until they finally confessed

Altho they definitely told Cassie

Poor Cassie was itching to just tell them already but she swore she wouldn't, and she's a very reliable person, would literally take a secret to the grave. She spent 3 months sitting back watching Tim and Kon pine after each other while knowing how they felt. It was torture

Meanwhile Bart was oblivious lmao

Bart's a great friend but he's not so good with secrets. He's got a little problem where he speaks before he thinks

Finally Kon made the first move...well kinda

He was sooo ready to just tell Tim in person, and then he settled on maybe a phone call, actually no, a text might work better...or maybe he'll just wait another week

And so he decided to have Cassie do it for him, what can I say, our boy Kon is afraid of rejection

It's bad enough Clark didn't wanna be his dad, what if Tim didn't wanna be his bf? That'd be harsh

And so Cassie called Tim up one evening and spilled the beans, which was a huge relief for her, and Tim was pleasantly surprised

He was also freaking out

He didn't know what to do, he wanted to call Kon immediately and tell him that he felt the same way, that he wanted to be more than friends, to be boyfriends. But then he collected himself, decided he wanted to tell him in person. Someone's gotta put on the brave face

So he texted Kon, asked if he was free to hang out at the Manor, talk abt a little something that Cassie brought up.

Kon was so nervous but he agreed and the next day he went over to the Manor.

Usually Conner was really chill with the Batfam, the Manor was practically a second home, but this time he was hella awkward. Mans was nervous

But they sat down in Tim's bed and talked. They talked abt everything, how long they've felt that way, how much they've been wanting to tell each other, when they first knew, I mean everything.

Kon asked what this meant, what this made them? And Tim said whatever he wanted

Kon had come out just 3 months prior to this and in a way, this was Tim's coming out. It was all so new for them, and it was nerve-wracking and exciting and crazy. But they were ready, and so they decided they would be boyfriends

Idk I guess that's how it works but anyway

Cassie was sooo happy for them and could finally spill all the beans

"omg FINALLY!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARD IT WAS TO KEEP QUIET ABT IT ALL"

And then Bart's just there like

"wait, Cassie knew? You told Cassie but not me??" >:/

Either way their friends were super happy for them

Tim told the Batfam abt a week later and everyone was super supportive and sweet about it. The Batfam actually likes Conner so they were excited for them

Alfred saw it coming a mile away, but he's happy for Tim since Conner's a good kid. A little obnoxious but they're a good fit

Dick was so happy for them, he likes all of Tim's friends and he knew for a while that they were a little closer than most. He accepted Conner into the family with open arms bc he's the best, like what do you expect

Jason was like "damn, didn't know u were bi. Cool tho, have fun dating ur annoying ass friend"

That's the extent of Jason's brotherly love

Damian was similar in that sense, he blatantly told Tim to his face that "Kent could do better but I suppose that's great news for you"

Bruce was happy asf for his son, being bi himself he was really supportive and proud of him. Plus Conner wasn't all that bad, yea he knocked over that expensive vase that one time and he's always yelling during sleepovers and he nearly ran over their cat that other time but hey, he's a good kid.

Babs and Cass and Duke were all happy for Tim too, Steph found out a few months later just bc her and Tim are exes. Not that there's bad blood between them, things just get a little awkward sometimes.

Kon didn't tell his family until about 2 months into their relationship. Except for Jon, he found out the same week but was sworn to secrecy.

Kon was really nervous to come out and tell his family bc he didn't know how Clark or Lex would react. He wasn't too worried abt Lois, he knew she would be supportive. But Clark and him were constantly at each other's throats and Lex wasn't all that good at listening or connecting to Kon.

Despite his daddy issues tho, both dads were really accepting of Kon and we're happy for him and Tim. Clark gave Kon the biggest hug and assured him that no matter how much they fought, he'd always be there for him. Lex also, surprisingly, hugged Conner and told him that who he loved didn't matter to him.

Kon and Tim's favorite date spot is this humble little coffee shop on a corner in Metropolis. Tim can feed his caffeine addiction and Kon can stuff his face on their freshly baked pastries

Altho Lex really wanted some of those WayneTech secrets

And yea those are my hcs on how it all started :)

I'll make another post for my other hcs since this one is long enough

what were they doing when they passed through the portal? 

cassie was trying to cram in the readings for next weeks lectures at metropolis university   (  undergrad in archeology  ) +  trying to do monitor duty at the same time in the tower,  the sudden portal did take her by surprise but she’s used to just dealing with problems head on and tried to fight it because ?? that usually solves her problems.   unfortunately, this time it only caused more.  at least she doesn’t have to worry about those readings in this universe !

semi-related this meme a friend sent me out of context a month ago that inexplicabaly just makes sense rn.

cassie (handshake emoji) superboy prime claiming they punched a hole in the multiverse

            where are they living? are they living with anyone?

cassie is currently living w.  garfield  logan  and  her  girlfriend  cissie  king-jones  in  a  cute  little  apt. 

           why is your character affiliated with who they’re affiliated with?

they’re her friends and family.   both the titans team,  and the amazons she considers to be part of her family.  whilst cassie can be quick to make friends on a personal level;    on a professional level,  she doesn’t like to work with people she doesn’t trust or know  --  in both needing to have good comms on the battlefield,  & that she doesn’t want to lose any more people in battle. 

          who are their major friends, allies, and foes?

her besties are conner kent, tim drake & bart allen - they are her boys !!! other besties include cissie king-jones, greta haywood & anita fite.   diana prince, donna troy & artemis are her mentors -- and foes wise,   hera & ares can choke  ( tentatively,   she’s not sure if pantheons stay the same across the multiverse. )

         whose hands do they believe the country should be in?

the correct answer is womens hands.   but,  cassie is a very dilligant amazon & whatever wonder woman says she will support without fault because that’s her idol !! ( unless diana tries to give her boy advice, she keeps throwing her boyfriends off of roofs :/ )

        what’s their current mental state at? their physical state?

cassie is taking everything in her stride as well as anyone physically could;   she’s gotten into wackier hijinks before.  the  one thing she’s struggling with mainly is no longer having a public identity,    she’s so used to wonder girl just being apart of her day to day life that it being abnormal to just fly around definitely makes her a bit ://

Hey hey hey! And here is day 4 of @jondami-week​ with all the prompts used yeah! I also threw a Wayne Gala over there because who doesn’t love a good old Wayne Gala.

Chapter 4: Secret/fake relationship | Getting caught | coming out

As always you can also read it under the cut

“Can you please repeat?” asked Jon too confused to understand the words that just escaped Damian’s lips.

“I need you to be my date in the next Wayne Gala.”

And Raos had Jon been waiting to hear those words because lately it had been harder to keep his hands for himself when Damian was close to him so the prospect of expending a whole evening holding his hand, parading around with him, letting everyone know that Damian Wayne was happily dating Jonathan Kent.

The issue was they were not dating. Heck, Damian did not even know he was in love with him.

“I-well-why?” he finally asked.

“I have decided it is time to come out to the public, if only for them to stop pairing with every young woman who approached me.”

Jon knew he should not feel this excited; it was probably due to that paper that claimed Maps and Damian were in a romantic relationship. But this was his golden chance, a day to deceive himself and savour what would be like to truly date Robin without the fear of destroying their friendship. Kathy was going to kill him for being so stupid.

And so here he was, in the red carpet of the Wayne Gala, the youngest hair of the company holding his hand while a swarm of paparazzi took pictures of them and shouted questions that were swiftly ignored. It was not his first time in a gala, Bruce had invited the Kent family several times, but this time was different. Because he came with Damian. As his boyfriend.

Maybe Jon died and this is his heaven.

Once inside, several important families of the Gotham socialite approached them to either meet Jon with a friendly smile to assure being in the Wayne’s grace or to ignore him completely while throwing comments like “you should meet my daughter/niece/single female family member”. If this was what galas were for the Wayne kids, Jon was starting to see why Damian had asked him to pretend.

But thankfully, the support of Bruce Wayne meant the last ones were the least and as soon as they spoke Damian shut them up with a few remarks, pushing Jon away from them. It was actually quite cute seeing how angry his friend got every time someone dismissed him.

“I’m not cute,” Damian growled. They were resting a bit in one of the balconies, completely alone with only the stars watching them.

“D, I’m sorry to be the one to break this news to you,” he shoved the last of the canapes in his mouth. “But you are super cute.”

“Since when? I’m a former assassin, a seasoned vigilante, I could probably kill everyone in this room without breaking a sweat!”

“Yes, but you are also tiny,” he dodged the napkin Damian threw at him.

“Then what about you? You are way cuter than me.”

“I am not… wait, you think I’m cute?”

Damian’s face turned the same red as his Robin uniform while he avoided his eyes. The silence imposed between them, Jon too scared to even move and Damian trying to disappear and mumbling something close to “why did you think I invited you”. After a few minutes, Jon took a step forward, then another, then another, until he was right in front of his friend, who seemed super interested in his shoes.

“Damian,” he whispered his name. “I’m going to kiss you right now, so if you don’t want me to, just say it.”

He waited for almost two heartbeats but seeing as his friend was quite happy with not saying anything, he let his hand caress his neck and pushed him just enough so their lips met. It was tentative at first, both tasting how the other felt against them. But like everything that had to do with Superboy and Robin, it soon turned into a competition and Jon found himself biting the bottom lip so he could shove his tongue inside his mouth at the same time Damian let his hand travel through his locks. Not wanting to be less, Jon let his hand down his spine until he could squeeze his ass, wishing he could just strip the boy of all those clothes. Damian seemed to think the same because he was playing with the buttons of his shirt when the window to the balcony suddenly opened.

“Hey, Little D, B wants you to… Woah!” Dick Grayson stood there, a wicked smile on his face at catching his younger brother. “Sorry, didn’t know you were so busy.”

“Grayson!” Damian hissed. “Do you not know how to knock?”

“Do I know how to knock on the window of a balcony? In the middle of a very public gala?”

“I- that’s not- Nevermind!”

“Sorry Dick,” Jon apologised. “We got a little bit caught in the moment.”

“That’s okay, kid. We have all done it,” he shrugged. “Just wait until the others hear about that.”

“Grayson don’t you dare!” Dick only laughed and started running.

“This is nice,” Jon said holding his hand.

“Oh, it is now,” he threw him a wicked smile. “But wait until Jason knows you were trying to defile me. I heard he has kryptonite bullets.”

“You know what? I heard Hawai is lovely at this time of the year.”

[thattimdrakeguy]

Thoughts on how Bendis understood the personality, attitude / essence of the core four during YJ? I think the characters he wrote the best were Conner and Bart, I can't say too much. I'm more conflicted with Tim and Cassie, at the beginning I think I handle Tim really well, and I'm really thankful Bendis didn't fall for the "super genius who can hack the NASA with a clip" cliche, let Tim be Tim, but then he goes and just makes him the generic leader of the team, no more no less.

I’m mixed with everything about him. I liked his Cassie, and Tim, except for when he made Tim just so freaking boring, and then “Drake”, and continuing the TimSteph stuff when it’s just really made out to be something it’s not.

But I also like his Bart more than even some writers back in the 90s, but giving him “little guy” comments when he’s nineteen, where he actually got taller than Wally before--just kinda feels like Bendis didn’t do a whole lot of research on him even though he said he read everything on him. And sometimes it kinda felt like he was using him more as like...unimportant as a character. Cause all he really did besides for one or two issues is go fast, and be comedy.

Conner I don’t even really know. His Conner was really inconsistent. It started off good and gave him some of his personality back, but then longer it went on he was just “Kent”. But then he had some moments where he felt like Conner despite that. But it kinda felt he had started to look at Conner as more of an extension of Superman rather than himself.

If it was the only series in which I read Conner I would not be able to tell you what kind of character Conner is. Is he a flirty rebel, that just cares about his own rules? Is a calm, mostly chill punk with a bit of a temper problem. Is he an emotional stereotypical teen boy that’s a bit of an idiot? Is he just younger Superman? Sometimes he even comes off as stoic and very respectful.

A lot of those are aspects of Conner, but how the series was written it doesn’t feel like one full attached personality like the original Conner, but was instead just replayed highlights Bendis would play without much sense on top of this young man that was kind of basically younger Superman. Which would make things just feel really odd with him. His writing for Conner wasn’t fluid enough and was stilted and awkward, which would end up making him feel like a new personality, when before it was all just one big personality.

He’s still their best writer in ages, which is a weird thing to say, but he had a lot of flaws when writing the characters. My best guess is he was too focused on other things to give Y.J. his full attention.

Reading the first four issues is great, the characters feel consistent, you get a fantastic sense of them, it feels like classic Young Justice, but after Gleason left, it started to feel like Bendis lost a lot of his enthusiasm for it. I know he really wanted to work with Gleason, and it seemed like he slowly stopped talking about Y.J. more and more and even got a co-writer who did I don’t know how much of the load really.

Cause in the first four issues Tim is himself again and feels like a fully fleshed out character for the first time since the 90s. He was dorky, he was moralistic, friendly, but he could also be a bit condescending, and get too into “I am the leader. Come on guys, lets, do team ... stuff”. Which is totally Timmy’s personality, and it was excellent, especially when Gleason figured out Tim’s looks more and more in those short four issues.

Cassie’s story is a bit odd at first but it’s not something so off that it doesn’t work at all, she’s still quirky and has a good deal of eagerness while still being the odd kid kind of person, but still in that grounded way she was before. So she felt more like herself, even if not to the limit Tim was originally.

Bart wasn’t as lucky, but he was energetic, reference making, a bit cocky, reckless, but he felt like a teenage boy at the same time, and not a freaking six year old. Which is what Bart was initially like till they utterly infantilized him like they forgot he was fourteen to fifteen years old and hanged out with kids his own age and older. So Bendis actually treating Bart with respect was great, he just didn’t have as much going on.

I already explained Conner.

And I think Cassie stayed consistent, personally. I really liked Bendis’s Cassie even if I wouldn’t say it’s a spot on recreation of what made her work to begin with. But she managed to be her own character and herself, unlike Tim; actually have a character arc of sorts unlike Bart; and was consistent the entire time unlike Conner who felt like a different person cause of the weird inconsistent way Bendis would write him.

So that’s my feelings on it. Bendis could’ve genuinely done fantastic if it was his motivation and focus more often. He clearly got the characters enough, but during the writing process he just dropped the ball harder and harder till he didn’t even have the ball anymore.

Tim became nothing but connections to people, Conner’s best friend, Batman’s sidekick, Stephanie’s boyfriend. He wasn’t his own person anymore, and his personality was vacant, and only there to support others. Which was genuinely depressing since he got Tim so well in the first few issues.

I also liked how Bendis put more focus on Tim and Cassie at first with their supportive relationship since that doesn’t normally get focus too often when they’re both themselves. Conner though? His and Tim’s relationship was basically nonexistent, it was told not shown as far as I’m concerned. And Bart was just everybody’s “little buddy” which wasn’t exactly his dynamic. He was a bit of a brat and airhead that could either really entertain people, confuse people, or frustrate people. He just ended up feeling more like a mascot then a person quite often in Bendis’s Young Justice.

In a different timeline Bendis could’ve made a magical revival of Young Justice that’d bring joy to people’s hearts. We just don’t live in that one.

It’s My Life JonxAdrien

I’ve hopped on the bandwagon in hopes that my first real fanfic will actually do good. I might continue it we’ll have to see how it goes. 

For @loveswifi

I hope you like your rare pair.

Jon was always a little jealous, he couldn’t help it. His older brother Conner always got all of the attention. He got so much of it that when Jon’s powers started to manifest that he didn’t even tell his parents. They wouldn’t have noticed anyway.

When Jon started to fly, he would take trips to see new places and be back by dawn, not that his parents would have noticed.

There was one time where he flew all the way to Paris and that was when he met him. (Well and I guess her too.) He was confident and bold and brave and everything Jon wasn’t. That was when Chat Noir told himself that he was going to do everything he could to make Jon as confident and cool as himself. 

Easier said than done. After weeks of Jon visiting and talking to the heroes, Jon gave up and went home for good. Chat was disappointed but still didn’t know why yet and that leaked into his behavior as Adrien. His father had started to take notice. Which on it’s own would have been a miracle but he decided to talk to him. Let his father know that everything had “went to shit”. 

Jon, back at home, was on his phone talking to Damian.

“I don’t know what to do. I’ve lost all hope.” Jon said into his phone trying to keep the tears from falling.

“Bullshit Kent, listen, I’m taking a trip to Paris to see my girlfriend, you should come too. It’ll be for a week and we’ll live normal lives there,” Damian said talking slow hoping that I would understand.

“They won’t even know I’m gone in the first place,” Jon said before Damian hung up.

.............................................

When the plane landed Dick, Kory, Mar’i, Damian, and Jon walked off and over to see the Mayor and his daughter. 

She started asking Damian all kinds of questions most had to do with a girl named Lila but that was beside the point.

Jon had already started looking around for Chat Noir or Ladybug but they weren’t there.

Adrien was walking to school and was shocked to see Chloe’s seat empty but a little less shocked to see that Marinette’s was also empty. She had mentioned something about a boyfriend last night on patrol and how he was bringing someone that he wanted her to meet.

“So my boyfriend Damian Wayne and his niece Mar’i are coming to visit soon. Such a shame that Dickie’s poor daughter shares the same name as Marinette,” Lila said before fake crying into her arm making Adrien roll his eyes.

“Have you ever met Kory?” Rose asked excited.

“Yeah, tons of times, she says I have a warriors spirit. She’s literally the sweetest. I also got invited to the wedding soon. I can’t go though cause it’s too far and I would have to miss school,” she said looking down clearly upset.

“What about Jon Kent? I heard him and Damian are pretty close.” Just then the bell rang and the door burst open. Marinette was walking in with a boy with black hair and glasses. For some reason, I couldn’t take my eyes off of him. 

She walked to the back of the classroom with him and they sat down laughing a little before our lesson started.

...............................................

“How was your first day of torture?” Damian asked walking down the hall after popping up out of nowhere to scare Jon.

“Fine,” Jon said trying to get his heart rate back down. “There was this boy though, he wouldn’t stop staring at me for some reason.”

“Do you think he likes you?” Mar’i teased appearing on his other side while Jon muttered something about “goddamn bats”.

“I don’t know, I only came here to see the guy I actually like,” Damian glared at him ”and to support you obviously to support you.” Jon finished looking up at Damian.

“Good answer, how are you going to find him? How are you going to get him,” Damian covered Mar’i’s ears “alone?” Mar’i looked up at her uncle in annoyance.

“That’s your second class, better get going farm boy,” Mar’i said as Jon ran off flipping both of them off clearly upset with the way things have been going.

He’ll find him eventually and when he does he’s going to tell him everything.

So I’ve been reading Into a Brighter Night and I absolutely adore your writing. It’s truly amazing! I also have a question thats not really related to that. What your opinion on Timkon?

I’m so glad you’re enjoying that story! I really love timkon. I’m a pretty mild multishipper, so they’re not an OTP for me, but they’re definitely one of my favorite ships in this fandom. I really like the way their friendship and respect for each other grew over time. Conner’s a pretty open person in a lot of ways, but he does have a tendency to hide his own insecurities by being a bit of a show-off. And Tim’s a pretty private person. So the fact that they canonically have a lot of conversations about their fears and worries and are just so damn supportive of each other is...so good and sweet and pure. Whether they’re best friends or boyfriends, that kind of relationship is something that I really enjoy seeing.One thing I’d really like to see more of from timkon fandom is fic that includes both of their families. My ideal timkon fic (which I might get around to writing someday in the very distant future) involves the Kent and Wayne clans each having to integrate this new person into their family dynamics. Like, the Bats all have to get used to Conner just kind of being around all the time because it’s easier for him to get to Gotham than it is for Tim to get to Kansas or Metropolis or wherever Conner ends up living. So there’s now a superpowered teen hanging around Gotham. Maybe trying to discreetly assist during city-wide crises even though he’s technically not supposed to but also, what, they really just expect him to chill out and do nothing during an emergency??? (Also, the Gotham tabloids at some point notice this new kid hanging out with the Waynes and just assume that Bruce adopted another kid and forgot to tell everyone about it.) 

Meanwhile, the Bats are maybe a little bit concerned, because they have a long and storied history of welcoming weird new kids to the family, but something they are not used to is having another family try to adopt one of their kids out from under them. Which seems like it might be what Ma and Pa Kent are doing, because they keep inviting Tim to visit them in Kansas. They negotiate with Alfred in order to figure out who gets the boys for Thanksgiving and who gets them for Christmas. And also Tim is sometimes super awkward about all the affection he gets from Ma and Pa, and they try not to be overwhelming with it but they straight up adore Tim and it’s pretty obvious. Also, Tim Drake and Lois Lane being in-laws? The greatest thing ever. Two very intense people who are whipsmart and opinionated and very dedicated to their jobs and also maybe a little too competitive about board games. They trashtalk each other’s cities constantly (because the Gotham-Metropolis rivalry is intense) and give each other a hard time and just really get along in a way that sort of surprises Clark and Conner. This also annoys Jon because he adores his unofficial big brother Conner and he assumes that all of Damian’s older brothers are cool even though Damian insists that they aren’t. So the fact that Tim spends more time talking to Lois instead of hanging out with Conner and Jon during Kent family gatherings? Terrible and unfair. Tim likes Jon just fine, but Conner’s idea of being a big brother involves lots of roughhousing (something the two of them can’t really do much with other people because, you know, super-strength) and being loud and silly and kind of childish (because he never had a childhood at all and doing stuff with Jon gives him an excuse to experience a lot of stuff he missed out on). And that’s all well and good, but Tim would much rather spend an hour listening to Lois rant about LexCorp instead. Lois’s rants are kind of the best. So...to get back to your original question. Timkon? Very Good Ship.

           M’gann wiped at the sweat accumulating on her brow, sighing under the sweltering heat of the sun bearing down from high overhead. She could feel the heat radiating through the small Kansas farm like a suffocating blanket had been draped over the land. She turned her gaze from the field below at the rest of the team, the heat rising from the ground making them look wavy and distorted.

          This had all initially been her idea -coming to the Kent’s farm that is. Conner had started to build a better relationship with Superman ever since they had liberated the League from Vandal Savage’s control, something she was very supportive about, knowing how much it meant to her boyfriend. Part of that relationship, was Conner getting to learn and experience where his “brother” had grown up, with more than a dash of Mr. and Mrs. Kent wishing to meet their “other son.” She had giggled when she heard that part, much to Conner’s chagrin. He didn’t understand how they could already be so trusting and caring about someone they didn’t even know yet. M’gann had just said that how could they not trust someone who shared DNA with someone they considered their son? He had grown quiet after that and it wasn’t until after he left for Kansas that she realized she had said the wrong thing. She was getting better at reading him, at reading other people and knowing what words they needed to hear in order to help comfort them when they needed it, but clearly, she still needed some work. Still, M’gann felt terrible, and so she had resigned herself to pay him a visit after he had called her with a small complaint about the amount of work that went into maintaining a farm. She knew that he wasn’t actually all that bothered by the work, but another helping hand would surely go a long way.

          She had gone to Kaldur initially -he was the leader of the team after all- with her plan to surprise Conner during his stay in Smallville. He had ended up really liking her idea and asked if she believed it wouldn’t be too much of an intrusion if the whole team went. Kaldur had believed that the work he read about being done on a surface farm would be a great way for the team to become closer, and further improve their ability to work together and work efficiently. She agreed, and between the two of them, it wasn’t long before they were able to convince the rest of the team to set aside a weekend to surprise their Kryptonian teammate.

          M’gann knew her breath was becoming more labored as the hours ticked by, but she wasn’t quite ready to admit to defeat just yet. Her physiology, along with her Atlantean companion’s, didn’t quite get along with extreme heat all that well. When they began in the early rays of the morning, the air was still cool, the dew soaking through her shoes as she trudged through the grass. But as the sun climbed higher, so did the heat index, until it was the hellscape she and Kaldur were currently suffering through. In truth, she wasn’t quite sure why she offered to help work the fields –oh wait no she did. A glance to her left, at the shirtless, toned body working the plow along the field, the sweat glistening off Conner’s chest. Yeah, she definitely remembered why she chose the field job now. After all, she was still a teenager.

          Kaldur and Raquel were also in the field with her and Conner. The boys were doing most of the harder, more demanding physical labor of ploughing the new field while the girls were checking the current crops for damages with Mr. Kent, having already helped repair the fences earlier that morning. M’gann’s previous experience in Qurac had proved to be rather useful in speeding up the process. Kaldur had already gone through and watered the fields, and all M’gann had left to do was use her powers to spread the seeds when the new field was ready. In the meantime, both her and Raquel were listening as Mr. Kent continued to educate them on the kinds of things they needed to be on the lookout for, and what to do if they found it. Sure it wasn’t the most labor-intensive thing that she could be doing, but constantly standing up and crouching down for hours on end in the heat was taking its toll on her body, and a look over her shoulder to Raquel showed the other girl was felling the heat as well.

          She almost wished she had taken up the offer with Zatanna and Artemis to help out Mrs. Kent with the garden and other chores for the house. At least then she would have been in the flow of the air conditioning for the better part of the day. However, she didn’t envy Wally and Dick’s job of taking care of the animals in the barn. She had caught a whiff of that when Conner was showing them around last night and she was more than content to not have to go into that in this kind of heat for as long as she could help it.

          She was broken out of her thoughts by Mr. Kent placing a hand on her shoulder. “You kids look like you’re ready to fall over in this heat.” His voice was laced with concern, his gaze going between the two girls and Kaldur who looked worse than M’gann felt which made sense, since he was doing the most demanding of the physical labor.”

          “Martian and Atlantean physiology tend to be a little more susceptible to heat than others.” M’gann found herself wiping at her forehead again.

          He seemed to ponder her answer for a moment and gave a decisive nod of his head. “You know what? You kids have been working hard for most of the day now, I think Ma and I can handle things from here. Why don’t you kids go back to the house and cool off?” M’gann gave an appreciative nod and went to go let Conner and Kaldur know while Raquel went off to gather the other two from the barn. The relief she felt the moment she set foot into the shade of the porch was nearly indescribable. Immediately she felt the temperature difference around her skin. Artemis and Zatanna appeared just as the others were approaching the porch as well, setting up a box fan to blow on the group and placing a tray with glasses of ice-cold lemonade on the table in the middle of the chairs they had arranged.

          “And here I thought the summer heat in Happy Harbor was the worst of it.” Kaldur had groaned as he relaxed under the shade of the porch, pressing the cold glass to his heated skin. M’gann found herself doing the same.

          Conner just snorted. “Yeah I thought the same thing until a few days ago, and I’m the invulnerable one.”

          “Hey Wally, what happened to your arms?” Raquel was glancing to her right at Wally, who had a series of angry, red scratches covering the surface of his exposed arms. Said speedster groaned while Dick burst out laughing.

          Dick couldn’t hold back his grin “Kid Brains over here tried to look for eggs under a rooster.” Even M’gann couldn’t stop the snort that made itself known as she heard the reason.

          “Dude! Not cool!” He elbowed the younger male in the side, only causing Dick to start laughing again. “Besides I’m a genius in chemistry I could care less about being a genius in what animals lay eggs.”

          “It’s a good thing we’re mammals then.” That earned a snicker from most of their teammates. M’gann just gave a polite laugh. She wasn’t quite versed on human innuendos so while she had a vague idea of what Dick was making a joke about, she still didn’t know enough to fully understand the joke. Earthing culture was still something she was getting used to.

          M’gann are you sure you’re okay? She turned her gaze to Conner at the sound of his voice in her head. He had his usual stoic expression everywhere but his eyes, which gazed at her with genuine concern.

          I’m okay Conner, I promise. I already feel a lot better just by sitting down.

          He gave a sigh of relief. Okay, I trust your judgment. I was just worried because I know how heat affects you.

          Her heart fluttered at the concern he was showing her. I’m a lot less fragile than you think but… thank you. I promise that I’ll let you know if it ever gets to be too much, okay?

          The corner of his lip turned upwards in a smirk. Okay.

          The two of them left it like that for a while, listening to their friends’ conversations and occasionally joining in themselves. She was almost startled when she heard Conner in her mind again.

          Hey M’gann?

          She turned her gaze to him. Yes Conner?

          I’m really glad that you came -well everyone else to but- you know what I mean. And I’d uh…

          She placed her hand on his. Take your time.

          I’d really like it if we do this again sometime. He glanced around at their teammates, as Wally was again getting teased about his mishap with the rooster. But maybe next time it should be just the two of us.

          She stifled a laugh. I’d like that very much.

In Honor Of Valentine’s Day

A day early, here are my favorite couples in comics. 

In no particular order: 

Empowered & Thug Boy (Empowered): For someone who has the word “thug” in his codename, he’s a near-perfect boyfriend. Emp can be rather neurotic but Thug is her fiercest supporter and defender. He treats her a million times better than the alleged heroes of the Empowered universe. Super cute couple.

Alana & Marko (Saga) – Two people, on opposite sides of a senseless war, come together to raise a family while on the run from their respective people. Great couple and an excellent series.

Snow White & Bigby (Fables): Bigby patiently woos the all-business Snow White. Snow has had a hard life and has placed formidable walls around her heart. Bigby slowly crumbles the walls while the duo battles a series of obstacles to their romance.

 Mary Jane Watson & Peter Parker (Spider-Man): MJ is the true love of Peter’s life and the only one who cares for both the civilian and super-hero side of Peter’s life. Peter is MJ’s greatest supporter. The duo is best friends and the perfect couple. 

Danny Rand & Misty Knight (Iron Fist): A duo with fun, sassy chemistry. Simply hot.

Scott Summers & Emma Frost (X-Men): I love this pairing because it wasn’t instant love but it was a deep, mature love. Scott and Emma had to work to overcome their differences and often had to meet in the middle to come to an agreement. A great example of a pairing that had to work on their relationship to make it succeed.

Henry McCoy & Abigail Brande (X-Men): Another fun pairing. Great chemistry. 

T’Challa & Monica Lynne (Black Panther):  A prime example of a deep love not being enough to save a relationship.

 Monica and T’Challa are soulmates but Wakanda’s hostility to outsiders prevents the duo from realizing their happily ever after. A prime example of a mutual but painful love.

Steve Rogers & Rachel Leighton (Captain America): I love this pairing because of the growth between the two participants. Rachel became a more mature and heroic woman. Steve learned to be less judgmental on women’s attire, hairstyles, and choices in careers. 

Clark Kent & Lois Lane (Superman): Clark’s true equal and partner. Accept no substitutes. I love the pairing in all their incarnations. Except for the Silver Age – it was a weird time.

Bruce Wayne & Andrea Beaumont (Batman): Bruce was within centimeters of achieving true happiness. The pairing was adorable. 

Scott Free & Barda (Mister Miracle): Big Barda is stronger, fiercer, tougher, and more intimidating than her husband and he loves it. Add in surviving their mutually horrific childhood to become heroic individuals and a loving couple and well, sometimes true love does conquer all.

Rokk Krinn & Lydda Jath (Legion Of Super-Heroes): I admire a girl who knows what she wants and goes for it – and that is Lydda. She wanted Rokk and she got him. Cosmic Boy tends to be “all business and no play” so he needs someone who will drag him into the fun side of life. Lydda does that and more. She supports Rokk and prevents him from making mistakes he will regret later. The old saying that “behind every good man is a good woman” fits this pairing to a T.

I don’t see every friendship as a potential slash pairing but I’m ending with a few friendships that should have been made cannon. The subtext was so obvious it became text. Unfortunately, DC and Marvel lack the guts to make it official.

Tim Drake & Conner Kent (Robin/Superboy): TimKon! Tim and Conner’s previous relationships in the DC Universe ran the gamut from pedestrian to icky. Tim and Conner’s chemistry simply outmatched anything they experienced with the opposite sex. Add in the growth in their relationship in the Teen Titans series plus their interactions in the One Year Later to Flashpoint era – let’s be honest, if Tim was female, the duo would have been an official couple. Make it happen, DC.

Ted Kord & Michael Carter (Justice League International): I ship Boostle for the same reasons I ship TimKon. A fun, mutually supportive couple that have been through the ups and downs and come out stronger for it. 

Stephanie Brown & Cassandra Cain: Steph has only had two loves in her life: Tim & Cass. Cass has only had one love in her life: Steph. Another fun pairing where each participant learned from the other.

Matt Murdock & Foggy Nelson (Daredevil): Foggy is Matt’s true soulmate. And the only one that has stuck with Matt through thick and thin. The poor man should be nominated for sainthood for all that he had endured because of Matt. Let’s be honest, Matt would be completely lost without Foggy.
