Unfortunately despite DCs best efforts my opinions on Jon kent still hover far too much in the "ah, just throw his ass back in the volcano" direction

What if I start a trend called "No one nuts November" where everyone writes about their favorite characters having bad sex that sucks and isn't fun.

happybunnykat

Okay so I made a list of 30 (well, 29 actually) prompts I am releasing into the wild. The point of this is that at least one of the participants are not having a good time.

It has 30 prompts for November but feel free to write and post whenever, but please add the tag #No one nuts November or #NoonenutsNovember wherever you post. You do not have to @ or credit this blog if you use any of these prompts.

Far from the most annoying thing about the ‘metahumans stay out of Gotham’ meme is that it’s false as all hell and multiple other superheroes actually do operate in Gotham just fine. Have since before the time of Bruce Wayne’s grandparents.

Bruce Wayne, who grew up idolising Alan Scott, would never in a million years tell him he can’t work in Gotham. Similarly you’ve got Black Canary and Duke Thomas who are both explicit metahumans.

And it’s not like Bruce has been successful at stopping villains like Poison Ivy, Clayface, Killer Croc, or Mr. Freeze — all of whom are metahuman or borderline — from operating in Gotham.

The real reason the big names stay out of Gotham is that they’re fucking busy.

Superman has intergalactic tyrants to punch in the face. Green Lantern has other intergalactic tyrants to punch in the face. Wonder Woman has lesbian BDSM to do with Cheetah.

When Bruce was a child, he tried to celebrate father's day with Alfred. He would bring him drawings or other crafts he made himself. One time he even baked cookies. Sometimes he would just give a hug.

It was always met with the same response.

"Master Bruce, I'm your caretaker, but not your father. Those gifts are unnecessary."

But Bruce still tried until his teenage years, when he finally stopped.

It was easier to pretend this day didn't exist than be met with disappointment again.

"Are you heading out, sir?" Alfred asked after Bruce hurriedly washed and dressed after a patrol.

He picked up a pair of black slacks and some white dress shirt, but kept the first two buttons open. He didn't want to look too stiff and formal.

"Yes," Bruce answered simply, fixing the sleeves of his shirt, then focused on his hair.

"It's Saturday," the butler reminded. "You don't have to go to the office."

"It's also father's day," Bruce replied quietly while trying to tame his hair a little.

In the mirror, Alfred raised an eyebrow at him. "Did you plan a father and son breakfast for us? Because I will have to-..."

"No, I'm waiting for Clark to pick me up," Bruce interrupted him. "He's taking me to Smallville to celebrate with his dad."

Bruce tensed when Alfred did so too.

"Pardon?"

Taking a deep breath, Bruce turned around to face the butler.

"Jonathan Kent invited me to spend father's day with him," he elaborated. "He called last month. Said he wanted to see both of his boys there."

Alfred was silent for a while, just staring with a perfectly blank face.

"He's not your father," he said eventually and it sounded... cold.

"No," Bruce agreed and went to the computer where a neatly wrapped package laid. "But he wants me there and that's enough."

Before Alfred could say anything else, Clark flew into the cave like a bullet - hair and civilian clothes ruffled from the wind - but his landing was graceful as his feet touched the ground.

Bruce was glad to notice he didn't overdress, and Clark picked a similar outfit.

"Mornin', B!" he greeted Bruce, walking up to him. "Alfred," he said to the butler with a nod.

"Welcome, Mr. Kent," Alfred replied politely. "Master Bruce just told me about your plans."

"Oh yeah, we gonna spend the entire day with my parents," Clark said proudly. "Pa couldn't stop talking about Bruce joining for a month! I think he loves him more than me!" he joked and wrapped his arm around Bruce's shoulder.

Bruce smiled shyly at his friend, but it disappeared when he looked at Alfred again.

"Don't wait up, Alfred," he informed the butler. "Unless there's an emergency, I'll be staying the night."

Alfred eyed them both.

"Very well, sir," he said. "Enjoy your father's day with the Kents."

"He will, I'll make sure of that," Clark promised and picked Bruce up into his arms. "You sure you don't want to take a nap first? You haven't sleep all night. My parents won't mind if we come later."

"I can go without sleep for longer than this," Bruce assured him.

Clark rolled his eyes at him. "That's not what I asked," he pointed out with a chuckle and took off, flying much slower through the tunnel than when he was alone. "No matter, you'll fall asleep the moment Ma stuffs you with her roast."

As Clark happily rambled about previous father's days in his family, Bruce listened to them with a soft smile - actually excited to be part of Kents' celebration this year.

And maybe next year, he could celebrate mother's day with the Kents too.

I know you'll enjoy this.

i see a lot of superbat stuff where clark shows bruce the "little things" in a proper relationship that bruce might not normally get but yknow what i want it the other way around.

"bruce never receives flowers before a date" yesss he does bro trust me. everyone and their mother is buying bruce wayne flowers. you know who's not getting flowers? clark kent. you know who's buying clark kent flowers? bruce wayne.

expensive flowers. handpicked wildflowers. flowers from alien planets. flowers native to other countries that clark never stays in too long because he's always flying, always on the go, always saving everyone and never thinking about himself.

"clark always gets the door for bruce" ummmm no he doesn't. bruce has already beat him there. no it doesn't matter that clark has superspeed—pretty boy bruce wayne has doors held open for him all the time. it's his civic duty to do it for clark.

"clark plans all the dates" yeah uh ☝️🤓 no. i'm sure he could, but bruce spends every day at WE having his days planned for him. he wants to plan something. he wants to treat clark and surprise him. clark is literally his passenger princess; bruce does everything in his power to keep it that way.

do you have any idea how excited bruce is that he has a boyfriend who never gets this kind of treatment, excited to be the first (and only) one to do it. do you have any idea how much he loves doing these things for clark, these little acts of service for the one man who can do it all—just to take that little bit more off his plate.

do you have any idea how much bruce wayne loves clark kent bro. do you.

Hey! I’m in love with ur Monster Superman design. Immensely unique Kryptonian biology headcanon. I’m curious, do u, at the moment, have lore behind it?

Yes, this is my AU where kryptonians have less human-like origin, though they evolved to blend in with human species in space. I see that they have more in common with white martians than with humans (I just really love martians design) This form of Clark is an extremely defensive state that activates from a lot of stress. He didn't knew he can look this way, but Kents were aware (and still loved him, of course). Bruce is the one who helps him to discover his nature. I really want to write/to draw about them being science bros in the Fortress because Clark, well, stuck in this form, he doesn't know what caused the transformation and can't return to the world where Luthor will use Clark's appearance against him for his xenophobic politics. Clones in this AU often don't have possibility to mimic human-like species or it's limited, if not supported by human genes. Half-kryptonians are smaller and less uncanny for humans. Probably mimicking mechanism is created artificially by kryptonians (or someone else) and not a natural mutation, but I don't have much lore here

Dramatic enough?

I needed to see him in the jacket and chaps

thinking about letting clark be written as scary without having to make him evil or morally grey

januariat

a lot of the time when people want clark to be frightening they make him evil, like in justice lords/injustice, or morally questionable, like how he dealt with zod in the dceu. but it would be equally cool to see a superman who’s the moral pillar of the justice league, who is kind and gentle and rescues cats out of trees, suddenly having a moment during a fight or a dangerous situation where you realize exactly how much he’s holding back. world made of cardboard etc but played much quieter/scarier. Or if we’re talking Alien Clark, having a moment where he forgets himself and does something extremely creepy. maybe he forgets to keep breathing. or something like that one panel where he forgets humans can’t see in the dark and scares the bejeesus out of a firefighter. uncanny valley cryptid clark.

idk I just think it’s Neat and would love to see more of it. if anyone has recs lmk :)

The weird recognition that Clark, without autism, still has to run ‘actlikeanormalperson.exe’ in his head and when he gets really involved with something he occasionally has to go through a checklist in his head-

Am I breathing?

Have I blinked?

Are my feet touching the floor?

Am I touching something typically fatal or painful?

Have I damaged the environment in some unexpected way?

Am I responding to sensory input not available to humans?

Oh … I’m not breathing…

And suddenly the Clark they know and love is there but for just a second they were in deep humanoid abomination/ uncanny valley territory and had no idea why…

It reminded me of this scene, Clark is still perfectly normal and heroic but he is Angry and he shows just how much he normally holds back and how deadly he’d be if he wasn’t holding back

Were I to direct a Superman movie I’d put in it something like “Clark gets hit by a car” twice.

Have some opening action scene where Superman shows up to stop crime and the robbers try to run him over at top speed.

Obviously it doesn’t work and Clark stops the car - wrecking it a bit and stunning the criminals inside but not harming them.

Then the scene repeats much later but this time Clark is distracted, stunned or suffering some phlebotinum effects - anything that causes him to not react.

He doesn’t catch the car or recoil from impact at all. He doesn’t budge. The car crashes into a completely immoveable obstacle and gets wrecked. The driver is seriously injured and Clark freaks out because usually he doesn’t allow this to happen. He consciously makes effort to limit the damage. Catching the car at all is not an effort to stop it - it’s a way to distribute the force behind impact and keep people alive

da-boy-o-kultur

If your car doesn’t have crumple zone you better hope that Superman is your crumple zone.

Like the scene where dealing with Joker as Clark is much harder than other villains, because he’s never had to consider what ‘giant funny mallet’ or ‘deadly rubber chicken’ would do to a human. How deadly would it be, how much can he get away with taking a blow, how much does he absolutely have to avoid, even if he moves at slightly superhuman speed - so that he appears the most human.

So much of what he does, both as Clark AND and Superman, is for other people’s comfort.

The way he tilts his head to show he’s hearing something you can’t.

The way he dresses for weather he can’t feel.

The way his glasses obscure the too-intense blueness of his eyes.

The way he lifts his feet over cracks, and ducks under overhangs.

The way he eventually purchases oven mitts and other protective gear to wear before touching dangerous substances.

The way he leans into blows so people don’t shatter their hands.

The way he tries to only respond to words and tone, rather than heartbeat, increased/decreased sweating, breathing changes, ‘inaudible’ mumbles, and all the other things people don’t know they’re communicating.

A Clark that forgets to do those things is fascinating to observe.

(I’d also love to see more of various Karas and Kon dealing with similar things, because their perspectives are all so different.

Kara grew up without powers, but not around humans, and so her blind spots would be really different.

Kon starts out without any interest in passing for human, and then gets a lot of his Kryptonian abilities around the time he begins to care, and it’s mixed up with all this resentment and confusion about ‘being human,’ and the fact that most of the people close to him act weirder than he does - he must be SO CREEPY, you guys!)

I am so glad read all of this, creepy alien (and still nice and kind!) Ckark my beloved 🙂‍↕️🤌✨

“superman detects something normal people can’t and accidentally scares the people around him by pointing it out” is one of my favourite scenarios.

If we go canon there is plenty of cases when Clark X-ray scans people around him and tells them to look into potential problems( ie. in a comic he tells Jim Gordon he should quit smoking)

One I always like to use in my own AU: kryptonians can detect electric signals well enough to feel all living things(animals, plants, fish, insects), electronics/machines, changes in weather and the earth’s own electromagnetic field, from up to 500 kilometres away.

Because this is just one of their regular senses, it doesn’t weaken or go away if their powers are compromised (suffering from Kryptonite, under a red sun erc) Because they can feel the earth’s electromagnetic field, they also, coincidentally, always know exactly where they are.

So. Imagine the Us Government or something has arrested superman in like, his first year superhero-ing and as they’re trying to transport him to a secure location to Question/study him for his powers, all of a sudden he just goes:

“oh hey, We’re already past the us-canada border. Another 50 miles to go, right?”

“…how did you guess that ?”

“the static in the air tasted different and I noticed we were getting closer north. Also, come on. I’m going to notice the only building in the frozen desert. 🙄”
