brainrot springs eternal

25F. Strange Transatlantic hybrid. "saudade: a vague and constant desire for something that does not and probably cannot exist, for something other than the present, a turning towards the past or towards the future; an indolent dreaming wistfulness."

as much as I adore a future fic where Lex always senses that he knows Clark somehow, even if he doesn't remember at the conscious level because they just mean that much to each other, I would also be weak for the moment in a dynamic where Lex remembers absolutely nothing and they're enemies and he's treating Clark with an absolute callous disregard and Clark suddenly realizes how much Lex was always holding back even when he thought they already hated each other. Like it takes him being strapped up to the giant kryptonite pillar while new Lex is watching him all *shrug, whatever* to realize that the Lex he knew never would've hurt him like this, like he was afraid of. But he's gone forever.

that being said I'm not actually always opposed to conflict free fluff I am just opposed to the characters having their claws filed down for it. you can stick them in a coffee shop au it should just still feel like you sat the two worst most insane people on earth in a starbucks

“Wow, she didn't take any prisoners, did she? Lana? Cute, smart, gutsy and way too much for you to handle. I can see why you're in love with her.”

i don’t think i’m going to be able to express this properly but i just got this massive ache in my chest thinking about lex (yes shocker i know but there’s more) because just… i don’t think he ever truly became comfortable in his skin. he’s still that kid who never fit in and was treated like a burden in his own home. like. i feel like fics that dive into lex’s psyche focus so much on his self-hatred and insecurities surrounding how he’s ontologically evil and all that (which i love reading) but i don’t feel like we explore enough just how much he struggles to put that confident facade on every day.

it’s so much easier to believe and stomach that he just simply learned to see and use his differences as an asset and grounded himself in that enough that he inwardly mirrors the persona he embodies outwardly but i don’t think he does. i think he leaves the house every day terrified of the moment he can’t keep it up any longer and he reverts back to that awkward lonely kid that no one wanted to spend time with.

and the thing that specifically made my heart hurt so bad is that that is the person who became the villain. that boy who cried because no one came to his birthday party and who had to put up a fight every day just to feel like he could be accepted by society (and still never truly was) eventually became the man who will do anything necessary to never feel powerless again. but the tragedy is that he is still putting on the face. he has to every day to run his business and lead his experiments and keep the respect and control of the city and to stomach all the terrible things he’s done.

yes, maybe he did eventually reach a point where he realized it was easier to take the acceptance by force instead trying to earn it. but that never freed him of the fact that he was desperate for it in the first place.

and the thing that’s killing me about this is that it was all for nothing. he never stops being miserable. he never stops being alone. he isolates himself further and that feeling never goes away. he became everything he feared he would be and fought so hard against and he never got any closer to having the one thing he truly wanted.

"I wish you had. I might be a better man."
