#blue kryptonite

Lemme explain. Blue kryptonite weakens and temporarily suppresses Kryptonian abilities. Cool, awesome, great. This, when actively used by Clark instead of used on Clark, provides some great opportunities to engage in activities that his biology and the effects of Earth’s yellow sun wouldn’t allow for. Maybe he wants to try cardio with Bruce and actually work up a sweat. Maybe Lois wants to go to a rage room and he gets to participate safely. Maybe he’s had day after day of shitty rescues and he just wants an hour or so where he’s not hearing, seeing, and feeling so fucking much at once. It makes sense.

What wouldn’t make sense, from an outsider’s perspective, is country boy Clark Kent—who’s worn the same glasses the entire time they’ve known him and lives in flannel with jeans when he’s not at work—randomly and inconsistently popping up with a stunning blue bracelet, ring, or earring. Men like Clark, or at least the men that Clark has the general public convinced that he’s like, don’t randomly change up their routines and style to include what looks like an expensive sapphire piece just because. That would draw too much attention. Because sir, is that a class ring? Did you get engaged? Wait, the ring is gone now. Did you break up? Is that a bracelet? I want one! Wait, where’s that gorgeous bracelet you had on yesterday? Oh my God, how long have your ears been pierced? Where did you get that amazing hoop?

The best answer is a system that allows Clark use of blue kryptonite without it being seen. A bellybutton piercing is easy to hide—because when is Clark showing off his stomach to people who don’t know he’s a super-powered alien? With the right placement and hardware, he could keep a gold hoop in there and snap a lil blue kryptonite gem in place when he wants to use it without anyone knowing.

Kryptonite Week - Day 2 : Red & Blue

Made for @kryptonite-week !

I know I'm late. There's been electricity issues at my place yesterday. Hopefully, I won't have more issues.

Setting and Characters: It's evolved around the story taking place in New Krypton before the destruction. The characters consist of Jor-El, Lara Lor-Van (Superman's mom), Brainiac, General Zod, Zor-El and Alura In-Ze (Supergirl's parents) and Kara Zor El as well as Tomar-Re, Green Lantern cop responsible taking care of Krypton.

Concept Ideas: 1) It start with Jor El on a trial witness by everyone on New Krypton (like the scene of Hari Seldom from Foundation series) on base of accusing Brainiac as a fraud and a liar. Jor El shows evidence of ancient books made by ancient Kryptonian he found stating that Kryptonian have the abilities to fly, superspeed and super strength, laser beam, cold breath etc but somehow lost their abilities for unknown reasons that can only be explain by Brainiac. Brainiac is immortal being from planet Colu fallen from the sky way back in Ancient Krypton and seen as an angel by Kryptonian where their civilization thrived with his modern technology with his guidance and all sources of history and knowledge cited by him instead of Kryptonian keeping it themselves. But the case against Brainiac has been dismissed for Brainiac side by the Krypton Councilmen.

2) There's also idea General Zod and Jor El would create a coup d'etat against the Krypton Councilmen and Brainiac only to be defeat and broken by Tomar-Re, Green Lantern assigned to protect Krypton. Jor El and Zod would have imprisoned as treason in prison facility lighted with Green Kryptonite. At one point, they break out and head to Ancient Krypton where they would discover their ancient powers after being hit with yellow sun on that planet. They also find that millennium ago via drawing and sculpture on the wall, Brainiac landed on this planet from planet Colu, kidnapped one of the Kryptonian to be an experiment thus creating Doomsday. This explain why the planet is unhabitable in the first place and why Kryptonian left the planet to live in New Krypton at expense of their power since New Krypton only has red sun. Over the years, Brainiac makes himself some kind of angel to Kryptonian since they had to adapt to new environment and has changed some history event to teach the new generation. All powerful Kryptonian in the past becomes fiction and myth.

3) Another idea is the existence of Kryptonite in New Krypton. Green Kryptonite is used as weapon like laser gun that shoots green beam that able to kill Kryptonian and also place in every lightbulb in Krypton as security measures implement by Brainiac centuries ago. Kryptonian wears Gold Kryptonite as jewelry and accessories for fashion without any knowledge that Gold Kryptonite absorbing sun from giving Kryptonian powers. Brainiac also has Pink Kryptonite all over his robes as accessories which have power to pursue anyone into his own will (Jor El also known and did went to trial to show everyone about this discovery only to be reject and debunk.) Red Kryptonite would be used by Brainiac to create Doomsday and also human experiment since Red Kryptonite are unstable for causing bizarre physical mutations.

4) Tomar-Re would have bigger roles as protector of Krypton. He would have working under Krypton government, saving people just like Superman on Earth and beats Jor El and General Zod's coup d'etat before fights against Brainiac and his cyborg. He would be the one using all his will power to protect the Krypton core with his Green Lantern ring all by himself to stabilize the planet before died. Brainiac sees him as competitor for the love of Kryptonian and harbours jealousy.

5) After almost losing love of people from Krypton, Brainiac uses pregnant Lara Lor-Van to take all his accusations to Brainiac and points it all to General Zod and his followers. In the end, Jor El makes a deal with Brainiac to leave the planet in exile with his family in exchange for his silence but when second coup d'etat happens, Brainiac only creates a small pod enough for a baby, Kal El. I like the twist that the rest Jor El only creates ship small enough for a baby is because he never did create it and it was all Brainiac as some kind of sick revenge. And I find it interesting that instead of classic story where Jor El warns the people of Krypton that their planet is dying, Jor El tries to expose Brainiac as a fraud which his action lead to the actual destruction of Krypton which if he just let go, the planet would still live but under the utopia lies by Brainiac. Anyway, Jor El keeps his memory as hologram and redirects the ship to Earth.

6) General Zod was betrayed by Jor El, sent to a special facility where criminals in Krypton will be exposed with Black Kryptonite which separate good and evil side. And somehow a fight happened between Zods and the authority which the good side of General Zod died leaving the evil version left to lead the army for a second coup d'etat. General Zod would have leftover of power he got from Ancient Krypton's yellow sun and proves to everyone Brainiac has lied to them by flying and laser his way to Brainiac in city of Kandor.

The Kryptonians aboard the Argos were enslaved and used as Gladiators and glorified fighting dogs for Mongul and the other rulers of Warworld when they realized their radiotrophic capabilities (yes this does eventually lead to The Warworld storyline and Osul and Otho Ra, and honestly I feel like it gives more of a reason for Mongul to be a Superman villain)

back to Earth, Clark eventually ends up in a romantic relationship (and eventually marriage) with Lois AND Jimmy

much like in MAWSM, Lois is Korean and Jimmy is Black

Kryptonians all have traits one would associate with The Autism Spectrum, so much so that Clark was diagnosed as such after being adopted by The Kents

Yes this does mean Clark was in Special Education for most of his life, and that's actually how he knows Lana Lang

nearly all Kryptonians could be called "Ethnically Ambiguous" based on their appearance

Kryptonian hair and eyes are almost always the same color, (though the former is obviously a much duller shade) and their eyes are usually Monochromatic (like the eyes of Tamaraneans in the 2003 Teen Titans series, or in Clark's Case the eyes of The Fremen in Dune)

Lex Luthor gives off more arrogant douchebag techbro vibes

Clark is more of a vigilante and more willing to break the law to get things done (actually that's an understatement, his main non supervillain targets are CEOs, crooked cops, corrupt politicians, hate groups etc.)

Krypto wasn't Clark's dog on Krypton, rather he was basically a labrat for Phantom Zone experimentation ages ago, and since the FTL drive on Clark's ship was based on The Phantom Zone, it ended up taking Krypto with him to Earth, at which point the beast became attached to him and became his sort of guardian angel

also Krypto looks less dog-like, a bit more wolf-like but a lot more alien

Kryptonians hatch from eggs and don't have mammary glands

Livewire was an alt-lite (or just straight up alt-right) podcaster like Lauren Southern that tried to make Superman look bad for all the same reasons those types try to make anyone look bad

Lobo is Death The Wolf's alcoholic unkempt pervert brother (in appearance and personality I mean)

Chris Kent exists again and has fairly similar origins to his original outing

Dru Zod and his lackeys (Fao Ra, Non Ek and Jax Ur Sa) “The Swords of Rao” were one of many small counter revolutionary groups that attempted to reinstate the old order after the Kryptonian Revolution, but were sold out by one of their own members, and Clark’s ancestor named Kru El (not because his colleagues were literal Fascists and he had a change of heart, but for his own self serving reasons) which is why he hates Clark so much

Jax Ur Sa is Dru’s daughter and Chris’ older biological half sister

Chris (then Lor Dru Zod) was mentally and physically abused by his father, mother (Fao Ra) and Half Sister, but when he left the phantom zone with no memory of them, he was greeted by something he could’ve never expected, a loving family

Clark’s has other adopted kids but they’re still kind of WIP

 There are multiple types of Kryptonite, each with different effects which are the following

Green (glass based) poisonous to Kryptonians

Blue (Metal based) Negates a Kryptonian’s bioelectric aura (and as such their powers

White Kryptonite (Crystal based) no effect on Kryptonians, but it’s what most Kryptonian tech is made of (and is basically a Jesus material that can be manipulated by Kryptonians to do whatever)

Red Kryptonite (Gas based) Some kind of emotional drug or smth

Gold Kryptonite (Liquid based, like Mercury) Enhances Kryptonian abilities

Black Kryptonite (Rock based) used to access the phantom zone

A dangerously dazzling drink that’s bold, zesty, and electrifying—just like the Man of Steel’s weakness in liquid form. Unlike its deadly green cousin, Blue Kryptonite doesn’t weaken Superman’s powers—it weakens his restraint. Expect flirty smirks, playful antics, and maybe even impromptu karaoke. He’s still super, just… super unfiltered.

Warning: May cause excessive charm, shirt unbuttoning, and spontaneous truth-telling.
