Ko-fi thank-you sentences for Lainy; Kon and Jon and brother issues.
Kon wonders, not for the first time, what would happen if he looked over at Clark and said "you know you never actually introduced me to Jon, right?" Wonders what Clark would say.
Wonders how bad whatever it'd be would hurt.
He's not pathetic enough to pretend Clark might say something that'd make it better. Not right now, at least.
He wishes he were, almost. This might not feel quite as bad, if he could make himself pretend there was something like that for a moment or two.
Even if there were, though, he knows Clark would never say it.
Clark never introduced them, Jon thinks it's annoying that people think they're any kind of related, and Kon can't talk to anyone about it because how stupid and ungrateful would that sound, anyway? Clark got his parents to take him in when he was all out of places to go, and Kon should just shut up and be thankful he didn't end up in some fucking shitty government lab they'd never have let him out of.
He's lucky. So lucky.
He should be grateful.
He should be grateful, but Clark didn't care if he ever met Jon. But Jon thinks it's annoying that people think they're related. But . . .
He should be grateful, and he is.
But also, he's just . . . not.
Ma and Pa are great and maybe the best thing that's ever happened to him, except maybe Young Justice, and maybe the day Clark decided to name him, but Kon just wants–
Why didn't Clark want him?
Why doesn't Jon?
