okay i took a little break and tumblr changed again. why is everything on the left now.

[isfogo]

⁽  ᴿᴱ  ⁾  ···    unprompted ̲ :      [ @starrkaren ], ❛ if i have to think about one more thing today, my head will explode. ❜

underneath her inscrutable, FIERY veneer - all luminous and viridescent - lies sympathy. beatriz arrives at the scene late, but even that was enough to get on her nerves: stoking a FLAME instead of sliding off like water, as many things do. can't imagine bearing the full brunt of whatever bureaucratic nightmare i just missed. ❝ UGH, tell me about it. ❞ HERE, there is a hint of an invitation - she's not above being nosy now that the excitement's over - but also an invitation up and above; and away. the flames that encompass beatriz recede, BUT ONLY FROM HER FACE - a small, wry smile becomes clear, even as she hovers fifteen storeys high.

❝ seems like you could use a distraction. ❞

[starrkaren]

she can give at least five good reasons why she no longer runs starr labs: the meeting she just floated out of was a good example of at least three of them. let's just say SHE'S NOT THE MANAGEMENT TYPE. no , she's visibly rubbing her forehead , freed from the ground , loosed into the air — didn't feel discomfort being too close to the fire , nothing on her person could burn anyway. " trust me , you don't want to know. i thought i left all the office politics crap at my old job. " she paused. " thought fate was about to lock wildcat in some prison dimension. now that i would've paid to see: would've saved him me throwing him through a wall. on second thought , i really could've used you there to balance things out. you might've enjoyed the spectacle. " arms cross loosely , a quizzical eyebrow raised at her words that slowly transforms into a lighthearted , MISCHIEVOUS GRIN. " a distraction , huh ? what'd you got in mind ? "

[selinaes-deactivated20240123]

A LIGHT PURR comes from a white cat that rubs it's head against her boot. " what do you think mister whiskers ? can she be trusted ? " a simple meow comes from the cat, selina smiles.

attention is once again on @starrkaren with the small white cat disappearing into the night. catwoman will stand back up, placing a hand leisurely on her hip. " cute halloween costume, by the way. "

[starrkaren]

"    oh  ,  this  ?   “  briefly  casting  her  gaze  down ,  examining  her  own  suit.  “   glad  you  approve.  "    a  pause.   "    yours  too  —    i  really  like  the  whole. . .  "   gesturing  vaguely  in  selina's  direction:    "    all  black  thing.  definitely  not  something  i  think  i  could  pull  off.  "    suffice  to  say  she  is  floating  ,  arms  crossed  ,  more  than  a  little  confused:    not  by  the  comment  ,    not  the  first  time  she's  heard  that  before  ,  but:    "    mister    whiskers  ,    huh  ?    "    can't  help  but  laugh  a  little  bit  ,  mostly  at  her  own  ineptitude:  she  can't  imagine  the  things  stinky  would  do  to  have  his  name  changed.   "   he  have  a  first  name  or  is  it  just  a  formality  ?    "

" POWER GIRL " , STRENGTH & POWER: among the prime earth kryptonians , power girl possesses perhaps the most raw strength , only truly comparable to superman. power girl is power incarnate , honed and perfected , strength more pronounced than supergirl or even clark at times: unlike either , her style of fighting is more physical , more direct. biologically , her dual - alien nature makes feats of physical strength somewhat easier. as an earth - two kryptonian , she not only absorbs the radiation of the earth's yellow sun , but she also produces her own bio - organic energy , and her cells have adapted to both take in and store a greater amount of energy as a reserve at any given time. similarly , as an exile from another dimension , she is immune to a majority of prime earth's kryptonite , as their predominant variant radiates an energy that does not directly affect her foreign cellular structure. as expected , power girl's strength requires an incredible amount of restraint. without even the bare minimum , she would rip through doors , vaporize human bodies , push holes through buildings or send smaller objects flying at high speed without even thinking about it. the full extent of her brute strength is unclear , though. not only is she physically powerful , she revels in her strength as an identifier of herself: she is physically imposing , nearly seven feet tall and three hundred pounds , and uses it to her advantage , longing for the opportunity to cut loose against someone or something that can take it. karen is an orphan of both her homeworld and her home dimension: while many things between prime earth and earth - two are similar , they are not entirely the same. she is , in essence , more of an alien performing humanity than clark or kara are: they all grew up around normal people , but karen was shuttled off to a world with new customs , a world full of people she recognized but who acted differently , grew up differently , and didn't recognize her at all.

" power girl " is both an act of self - invention and an ideal description. it's part of what anchors her to her new home , both as a hero and as a being wholly separate from supergirl. it has come to the point where she does not consider herself and kara as a multiversal copy , but more that they are two different people with different backgrounds.

⤳   @starrkaren, ​​​​   asked:     ‹ It’s a lot. Don’t be here if you don’t like a lot. ›

This is the setup for some sort of punchline, in some universe somewhere: Power Girl and Rogue walk into a cat café. There's nothing funny about it, though, it's a deadly serious outing that has Rogue instantly melting as she takes a seat at one of the tables with Karen. ❝ You kiddin'? This is great. ❞ Grin's confident and, in a real genuine sense, happy, her eyes going wide as she picks up a nearby kitten. ❝ Ah'm gonna take you home. And yer brother. ❞ She meets the stare of a cat perched nearby, lounging in a planter . ❝ And that one. All'a ya. ❞ She stops herself from landing a smooch on the kitten's head, settling for keeping the cuddles restrained to gloved hands. ❝ Maybe this will be a problem. ❞

[starrkaren]

this is usually the kind of thing she's found herself otherwise incapable of doing , normally: not that she doesn't go out , god knows that if it isn't helena asking for help busting a drug ring , it's terra asking to go see a movie , or maybe to follow some teenagers around because they talk funny and it entertains her , but this ? this is textbook [ BOUND TO BE INTERRUPTED BY WORLD - CONQUERING MONSTER ] territory , the most absurdly , comically peaceful thing one could be doing. it's almost as if they were trying to piss of the gods of karma. and yet: " yeah , it's a real . . . see , that's exactly what i'm talking about. " nevermind the two cats literally crawling on her right now , one on her shoulders and the other trying to claw its way up her leg. she can't help but laugh , trying ever so carefully to pull one up into her hand without hurting it. she's laughing , but also reaching one finger in as if it could try to kill her at any moment — because stinky usually does. " you can never just get one , it's gotta' be all of them. " she looked at the kitten in hand , mixed feelings , but she's smiling — " i don't think i have enough room in my apartment for seventeen more of these guys, that's not quite where i'm at in life yet. what about you ? i don't really take remy for a . . . " be patient with the cats " kinda' guy , no offense. "

the  funniest  joke  is  the  dc  wikia  saying  power  girl  is  5′7″  &  160  something  pounds  like  . . .  i  need  you  to  be  so  fr  rn

[starrkaren]

PROMPTS FROM THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING *  assorted dialogue from the 2001 film

i wish none of this had happened.

i'm glad you're with me.

whatever you did, you've been officially labeled a disturber of the peace.

are we lost?

i'm hungry.

i do not know the way.

even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

i swore to protect you.

then it has all been in vain.

i thought i had wandered into a dream.

you've already had it.

i know what you saw.

men are weak.

we must move on, we cannot linger.

i would have gone with you to the end.

what do you see? can you see anything?

you have my sword.

one by one, it will destroy them.

it is mine to give to whom i will. like my heart.

the world is changed.

it is a strange fate that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing.

are you frightened?

you carry the fate of us all.

you offer it to me freely?

i can avoid being seen if i wish.

all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

that is an encouraging thought.

do you remember what i told you?

not with ten thousand men could you do this.

this is it.

they care nothing for the troubles of others.

you cannot pass!

fly, you fools!

i have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox.

you said you'd bind yourself to me.

i would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone.

i wouldn't count on it.

i do not know what strength is in my blood.

many that live deserve death. some that die deserve life.

do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.

we do not stop 'til nightfall.

what about breakfast?

have you been eavesdropping?

you must take it!

i choose a mortal life.

i know what hunts you.

keep it secret. keep it safe.

how many did you eat?

i would have followed you.

cast it into the fire! destroy it!

that wound will never fully heal.

if it take one more step, it'll be the farthest away from home i've ever been.

be at peace.

i made a promise.

it should have ended that day, but evil was allowed to endure.

it is a burden they should never have had to bear.

you're late.

i do not deny that my heart has greatly desired this.

they're scattered, divided, leaderless.

you step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.

i'm coming with you.

i cannot do this alone.

our list of allies grows thin.

i don't know half of you half as well as i should like, and i like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

do you remember when we first met?

there is one who could unite them.

there's no need to get angry.

you need people of intelligence on this sort of... mission... quest... thing.

this task was appointed to you, and if you do not find a way, no one will.

i don't suppose we'll ever see them again.

there is evil there that does not sleep.

it is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust. the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume.

you cannot give me this.

if by my life or death i can protect you, i will.

they must decide now how to end it.

who will you look to when we're gone?

i hope the others find a safer road.

i am not trying to rob you. i'm trying to help you.

think i'm getting the hang of this!
