MOS Pa Kent And MAWS Pa Kent

MOS Pa Kent and MAWS Pa Kent

I find the polar opposite depictions of Jonathan in these stories incredibly fascinating.

MOS Jonathan shields and separates Clark from anything related his heritage, including things like his ship and powers. Encouraging suppresion and caution in Clark.

Actively telling Clark to hide his powers and never use them, scolding him whenever he used them. He is a man terrified of the world taking his son away from him, specially knowing he has no real way of protecting Clark from anything that may seek to harm him. So he encourages him to hide himself and avoid drawing any attention.

He is a more jaded and cynical man, immediately assuming the world would attack and try to kill his son (he ended up being right, which is its own can of worms), would try to rip his miracle child, his star baby away from him.

He only sees a world that would harm the child he so desperately seeks to protect, that child he loves more than anything.

MAWS Jonathan is the complete opposite of his MOS counterpart. He is the one that encouraged Clark to discover himself, to make contact with the ship, to practice his use and control of his powers, even turning that into a game a young Clark could enjoy.

He is aware of the shock Clark´s existence will create but in the end he has faith in humanity seeing Clark for what he truly is, someone who just wants to help others.

He is more optimistic and cheerful, thinking of the best and encouraging other people to do so too.

In MAWS, Martha is the one who is the one who wants to keep Clark away from anything alien, the one that clings to him and wants to keep him hidden.

While Jonathan is cheerful over Clark deciding to go public and help people, Martha is the one that is slightly reluctant (though not to MOS Jonathan´s level, like letting yourself get killed by a tornado because you don´t want your son to expose himself is extreme though somewhat understandable) to let him go, though she eventually gets on board and creates his trunks.

This dicotomy is reflected on Clark´s abilities.

Flight is one of his most characteristic abilities and it often serves as a metaphor for Clark feeling free and accepted, it comes in moments where Clark learns to love and accept himself.

So it is interesting to see how in MAWS it is one of the first he obtains while in MOS it is one of the last ones. Showing the difference in how their settings and enviroments reacted to them.

MAWS is honestly amazing and I am incredibly glad we got this adaptation of the Superman mythos. It is so unique and refreshing. I can´t wait for season 3.

Regardless of its flaws I genuinely love MOS and its depiction of the Kent family. Its different from what we are used to in comics and tv shows, but it offers a unique take on the Kents dealing with Clark´s powers. At the end the day Jonathan is just a father terrified someone will hurt his child and he won´t be able to protect him.

Anyways this ramble has lasted enough, love both pieces of media to bits.

Clark Kent vs Gotham’s Rogues

Superbat Idea

Batman’s enemies find out the Bat has a thing with Metropolis’ reporter Clark Kent. So decide to try to kill him (without success)

He is either always saved by Batman, the shots never land, he survives accidents without problem, the guns used to try to kill him always break or people suffer head injuries before landing their shots.

After so many failed attempts people begin to think Clark is a meta, but with some sort of Luck manipulation ability.

Clark and Bruce catch wind of this and go: task failed successfully I guess.

Snyderverse Superman

I don't like the angle the story itself is trying to sell on him but I do think the reactions of the characters inside the story are realistic to what would happen to him in the real word.

Lex Luthor hates him because of his own internalized issues, using him as a scapegoat he can pin blame on. Pretending he hates him due to some higher purpose.

Bruce hates Superman because he doesn't understand him, and people fear what they don't understand. (and in this universe metas became common after Superman appeared so this Batman has no experience with superpowered beings, he didn't slowly increase the powerlevel of the powered being around him, he went from 0 to a 100, and that is scary)

The people who he has saved and cared for love him because they've seen him, they know him.

The people that hate him tend to be people in power or those affected by Black Zero.

He didn't get that much time to make the world know him, he was Superman for like 2 years only, compared to the 20+ he has in the comics.

He is this powerful being that sprung out of knowhere, that is bound to make people afraid, and no ones likes being afraid so they hate.

I think the most realistic part of the movie is the tv scene where people are sitting down and talking about weather he should be allowed to roam free or not.

As if it is moral to deny a sentient being freedom/ autonomy.

Because as much as it sucks to think about it is what would most likely happen if a superman appeared.

People say snyder superman is too angry or gloomy but who the fuck wouldn't if they were subject to hearing people treating them like an object and hating him?

Brainiac’s Magical Girl Transformation

It certainly wasn’t on my MAWS S2E8 Bingo card. (And Brainiac unfortunately served in that outfit)

Brainiac’s Magical Girl Transformation

Also why is his waist out like that? (I like it)

This idea has been bouncing around my brain non stop, so I wrote a little snipet. Might write more after I finish my current WIPs

The first thing Mel noticed during their reunion -as violent and messy it had been- was that Jayce's softness was gone. Both in his body -its plush curves and soft muscle that she loved to lay against being replaced by sharp protuding bones and wiry muscle- and in his mind -a fountain of unconditional love she had grown used to bathing in that had dried up when she least expected it, leaving her thristy and longing for its sweet freshness-.

Mel found herself mourning its loss despite knowing it was always bound to happen. She had known sooner or later a wolf would come around and rip Jayce's wings off to feast on his soft heart.

Mel pondered on who it could have been as she gently carded her fingers through Jayce's wet hair, smiling at its softness. She took a moment to appreciate Jayce's sleeping face, how even after being subdued by Viktor's magic his face still remained tense, his brows stuck in a perpetual frown, so different from his previous self I caused Mel's heart to clench painfully.

In an attempt to sooth herself and Jayce she began to gently sing an old Noxian lullaby her brother would sing to her. The tender tones of the song and her voice had the intended result.

Jayce subconsciously nuzzled into her thighs, his shoulders losing a little of that ever present tension, which was perhaps a hint not all of his sweetness was gone.

Okay genuine question. Chat, do we think that if s2 Viktor and Mel got power hungry, and joined forces to take over Piltover to recreate it in their own divine image. If this happened, do we think Jayce would crumble or renounce them?

Quincy with real wings

An AU where the quincy race has actual bird like wings the color of their reiatsu.

And when quincy were more widespread they didn't hide their wings but as their population dwindled they were forced to either hide or cut them off.

Quincy like Ryuken cutting them off while Uryu hid them, only ever allowing them out in private.

Idk the idea just popped into my head and wouldn't leave me alone.

Batman’s Rogues seeing Superbat

I am currently writing a fic in which we get to see Superbat developing into a relationship through the eyes of Batman’s Rogues gallery.

In kind of a 5+1 things format.

With each of them having their own opinions and thoughts on the heroe couple. Along with it being an exploration of that respective rogue’s character and relationship with Batman.

So I wanted to ask for suggestions for scenarios on the fic and which rogues I should use.

Lucifer and God in Hazbin Hotel

If God and Lucifer don't have a White Diamond/ Pink Diamond style relationship in Hazbin Hotel I don't want it.

I want God to be this ancient and primordial being who genuinely sees Lucifer's punishment as the equivalent of sending a child to their room, like the last 10,000 years have just been a minute to him.

I want Lucifer to still be his favorite, for him to be extremely loving yet condescending at the same time.

To him all of Lucifer's pain and suffering is equivalent to a scratched knee.

He would see Lucifer's refusal to come back to Heaven after their reunion as a child throwing a tantrum after being scolded.

Meanwhile Lucifer has to deal with a parent that doesn't listen to him and treats him like a doll. (Having an omniscent and omnipresent parent must be hell)

All while the rest of the cast can only watch this family feud.

Ichigo's reaction at Grimmjow's return

I get Ichigo being shocked Grimmjow is still alive but there is absolutely no reason for Ichigo to seem so tense around him, like at this point Ichigo would have an easier time killing Grimmjow than Aizen would have had in the arrancar arc.

Ichigo flicking his finger at Grimmjow would be enough to kill him. The PTSD must be strong af for Ichigo to seem to tense.
