Kara Danvers, Kara Zor-el, Supergirl

I love Kara, Alex, and Nia! Not a shipper of anything besides Kara and self-acceptance!

There were definitely aspects of the finale I didn’t like (Brainy essentially deciding to abandon his mission to protect the timeline even though that’s been his mission since season 3, Kara revealing herself even though the 100th episode directly contradicted that’s possible to do safely on the Earth of this time) but overall I’m having FEELINGS about the parallels of it all, and seeing how everyone grew, and having almost everyone back together one last time.

Kara Danvers totally makes an appearance on Sesame Street as Supergirl

[racethewind10]

Kara as Supergirl, with Elmo and Grover and Big Bird (definitely with Big Bird) talking about how to deal with bullies. 

Kara in her suit and and cape with that smile on her face that makes people smile back whether they meant to or not and kids trust her instantly, talking about adoptive families and getting along with your siblings. And no she can’t say who her adoptive family here on earth is, because they need to stay safe but she can talk about how much she loves them, just like she still loves her biological family even though she misses them every day.  She can talk about the times it was hard fitting in with a new family and how sometimes someone might say something hurtful (and how sometimes that someone was her) but how family means talking and forgiveness and understanding and love whether you were born into it, or you found each other (and maybe she goes home that night and she and Alex don’t talk they just hug tighter than usual and Alex’ eyes are suspiciously shiny when she steals the remote). 

Kara with her chin up and her shoulders squared and her voice not shaking at all (J’onn gives her a nod when she comes back to the DEO and a quiet “good job, Supergirl,” that means everything) talking about being far from home and trying to adjust to a new culture and a new language and how it hurt when people made fun of her and how they live in a big world where a lot of people have to leave their homes sometimes for very bad reasons and how sometimes all it takes is someone holding out their hand and saying “you can sit with us at lunch” to make things a little better. 

Kara kissing Elmo on the top of his head and Elmo giggling, and then floating up to hug Big Bird so he doesn’t have to bend down. 

Kara definitely being invited back. 

Kara and Sesame Street

Reblogging again for the heartbreaking commentary. The Sesame Street episode I never knew I always needed.

#I am not exaggerating when I say that third gif made me tear up and need a moment#‘so come home’ said the stars and how often do you think Kara tries to fly higher and higher to touch them once more#‘so come home’ say the stars in the voice of the one who sang to her as a child and the one who held her close when she was scared#‘so come home’ say the stars in the language of her ancestors in an accent she only remembers in her dreams#‘so come home’ say the stars every time she takes a hit harder than anyone should ever take#‘so come home’ say the stars as they ushered her aunt to join with the rest of her family amidst the darkness#and how many times do you think Kara listens listens LISTENS and almost. almost does what she’s told#yeah I gotta sit down about this#Kara Zor El#Kara Danvers#sunshine golden girl of my world#Supergirl#gif set

And don’t worry, you’ll get better at the whole sneaking out thing. The key is subtlety.

Kara, Linda, and Art

I’ve been discussing with @morallyconflictedcharacters (who provided all of the screencaps in this post) the neglected topic of Kara, Linda, and art.

In S4 we see Linda snooping in Kara’s apartment, and looking at a painting and paintbrush:

We also see that Linda herself has artistic talent, and drew sketches of  Supergirl, chess, and Alex Danvers in her journal:

Which leads us back to Kara, in a roundabout way. 

Even though in S1 we see paintings in Kara’s apartment, it’s never directly referenced in any dialogue spoken by Kara or any other character:

Kara drawing or painting isn’t mentioned by any character in S2 or S3. Linda picking up a paintbrush in S4 is the closest the show has come to directly acknowledging Kara does paint, and isn’t just fond of art and displaying paintings on easels. 

From Linda’s own drawings, maybe it’s not too much of a stretch to say this is something they had in common?

I know Supergirl is all about the action, but it would be a nice aspect of Kara’s backstory and character to explore, bringing it to the foreground as part of a story and not just as a background set detail.

[morallyconflictedcharacters]

Even a casual “You bought/painted another one? Cool!” sometimes would be enough to somewhat make them not only a random quirky piece of furniture (next tier would be to actually address her passion for Art in some way sometimes).

Also at the time of our discussion I forgot the only other direct reference to Kara affinity with visual arts (AKA the Kryptonian equivalent of Macaroni art and/or those crooked ashtray children are used to make at that age) was in S01E13:

After this, the cosmic void!

This + the tags by @lizzbian:

#dude i think about this all the tiiiiime #did she take classes in college? or did she figure it out on her own? #does she paint krypton? or is it too heavy and too literal and painting abstract is more her style? #i would love to see even small evidence of her painting like #a paint splattered apron hanging up in her room #or errant paint left on her elbows and sleeves cause we know that shit goes everywhere #she finds a great deal on canvases and buys a lot so they pop up in the bkg somewhere #just. something ! #sg #kara zor-el
