So you know kent never swears but says stuff like golly and gosh imagine Mark picking up those words.

(I'm looking it up and superman doesn't swear so I can imagine kent being like that )

Like he is doing hero stuff and saying good golly and his teammates clocking it and finding it funny especially rex.

With Cecil he acedently saying gosh

Imagine if even oliver is picking up on the "Kent swearing "

It's cute to think they learn form each other habits

Ahh, my favorite trope of couples picking up on each other’s habits… You’ve truly cooked my favorite meal.

Comparing Mark’s language to someone like Rex, Mark doesn’t exactly swear often. But when he does, he doesn’t censor himself. And if he does it’s more “What the heck?” compared to Kent’s “What the hay?” or “Gosh” to Kent’s “Golly”

Like you said, imagine with me.

Mark and Rex taking on some high scale heist gone wrong. Like someone trying to break into Fort Knox.

They arrive on the scene, and like anyone, both kinda have to pause at the sight of the amount of gold that’s actually still there.

“Wow. Golly, that’s a ton of gold…”

“What did you just say??”

“Uh… ‘That’s a lot of gold’?”

“No, dude— ‘Golly’? Really??”

“I didn’t say that.”

“Uh, yes the fuck you did. What the hell man, Supes been poisoning your water or something?”

“Why would she poison me?”

“Why would you say ‘Golly’??”

And while Oliver swears much more than Mark, c’mon he’s little. It’s bound to happen. He’s honestly more scared of Kent catching him sweat than his own mom—

Debbie’ll sigh, tell him to check his language. She’s gone through Mark’s swearing phase after all.

But that silent look from Superwoman? No, he’s immediately going:

As if mark hasn't fallen in love enough for Kent her respecting his mom makes him feral.

Kent hears Debbie say finding good Gochu/Korean Chili Peppers was hard in Chicago once and immediately asked her folks if it was okay that they set aside a small box to be able to grow them for her. (Which did require an explanation cause I hc that Kryptonian’s are ‘allergic’ to capsaicin)

I also like the idea of Kent also trying to grow a mandarine tree as well—

Like terra begging her mom to play along and Kent not understanding why it's a trend to jokingly tell their mothers to shut up and after a lot of begging of terra she agrees.

How would mark react and her twin brother to this prank.

Poor Kent only gets more chronically offline as she gets older. And she genuinely can’t see the entertainment in watching children ‘backtalk and tell their moms to shut up’.

But Terra explains that, it’s not that that people find entertaining. It’s the dad’s reaction and how quick they are to ‘defend’ their wives from their kids.

It would take a lot of begging from Terra for Kent to relent and take part.

And when Terra finally does,

Jon is stun locked. Like, mouth agape. He cannot believe what Terra just did.

And it takes Mark a moment to step in to cause. Back talking has never really been a thing either twin does to Kent? Mark, sure. But their mother? Never.

Firstly,

AISDVDH HELLO??? RUSHED OR NOT IM PRINTING YOUR ART OUT AND PLACING IT ON MY WALL (your version of Kent is so cute,,,)

Thanks so much- And I'm really glad you're loving STS <3

Secondly,

I do really like the image of Main Kent, either by herself or with the help of another, finding a way to traverse dimensions to bring closure.

Good relationships or not, evil variants or not. She feels responsible for letting those know from their dimensions that they're dead.

And she can’t help but feel a little bit guilty at the sheer number of how many Kents are relieved at the fact that their Mark is dead. Absolute Kent might actually be the most relieved—

((And Main Kent needing to tell Retro’s Kent that he got atomized by Rex Splode to, arguably, both’s surprise))

Though for Kent’s like Lensless’ or Shiesty’s Kents who have relatively good relationships, they might lash out at Main Kent briefly. But, after a moment, they know their Mark wasn’t a good person, they know that, but they can’t help but grieve him..

Thirdly,

Heating food and imagine during a heatwave she uses ice breath.

No, cause now that it’s summer where I live and it’s getting hot and humid, I can’t get this scene out of my head—

Kent runs hot. And Mark, while not prone to overheating like Jimmy or William are, can’t stand to even touch Kent during hotter days during the summer.

They’re usually intertwined in bed? Not any more, the most Mark can handle is maybe holding hands while he’s on the edge of the bed.

Kent (and Mark too) get kinda huffy cause. she wants to be close to Mark! It’s not her fault the weather is mid-high nineties with humidity!

(Thank you, Mandalorian and Grogu)

So, to keep myself focused on Mark and STS, here’s some fluffy Kent/Mark headcanons I have while I slog through the smut and rewrite the rooftop scenes into other things

Both Mark and Kent come from families who take their weekly cleaning very seriously

However, both have completely different processes.

And while Kent is down to learn and use Mark’s way, he’s very particular and lets her clean a different room than the one he’s working on.

((Mark is a floor first cleaner, Kent is a surfaces first cleaner))

Speaking of which, their dishwasher basically goes unused.

The Kent’s dishwasher was rarely used as most pots/plates were completely cleaned by hand, and the Grayson’s rinsed their pots/plates and placed them into the washer.

Mark’s the washer, Kent’s the dryer.

Kent is an early bird, and Mark is a night owl

It doesn’t help that most of Kent’s shifts start early in the morning (workin’ 9-5)

Mark lowkey tries to get her to call in sick some days

He just wants a lazy morning with her,,,

They do share a bathroom sink and all of their toiletries are mixed together.

The only reason they even know which toothbrush is theirs is because Kent got Mark a child Seance Dog brush as a “anniversary present” and he actually used it

Mark did originally have his own shampoo, conditioner, body wash but he quickly began to use Kent’s. And vice versa

They like to smell like each other

Especially because you never know how long one will be called away

They do fight over if Burger Mart or Big Belly Burger is superior

Not actual fights, but both are incredibly petty when they want to be

Both have tried to convince the others friends to be on their side

Kent is more successful, as William immediately hopped on to pissing Mark off, and Jimmy genuinely enjoys Big Belly.

Lois could not care less.

Kent genuinely is trying to train Krypto to not sleep on the bed (as it’s already small, not even talking about when Mark spends the night)

But more than once, Krypto has buried himself between Mark and Kent as they sleep and kicked Mark off the bed

Reiterating this! Kent “purrs”

Her heart has a rattle due to the extra layers around it, and it’s more audible during a relaxed heart rate

Mark went nuts when he discovered it

Kent was unable tn escape the teasing for weeks

It only stopped when she threatened to stop letting Mark rest his head on her chest if he continued

Kent has scared Mark more than once late at night.

When it’s dark and she uses her vision, her eyes let out a soft glow

And when Mark is either waking up cause she’s no longer in bed, or arriving at her place late at night and he just sees glowing eyes.

He’s screamed at least twice and made Kent promise to not tell anyone.

Mark is lowkey extremely possessive of Kent

When Kent slowly starts to build her Justice League, and gets more and more friends

Jealousy is a problem for him. Not cause he thinks Kent would be unfaithful or that her friends would shoot their shots

But social media gets the better of him

Ship edits of everyone but him with her

Pool/Beach days are at least every week during the sunny months

Kent is a floater. Either on a ring, or simply floating on her back. She can fall asleep and snooze.

If it’s just them, Mark likes to grab ahold of her and float along side. He doesn’t fall asleep, though. He just watches and relaxes

If it’s with friends and family?

Sandcastles and water guns and splash fights are his way of enjoying the day.

Kent is actually the one to do yard work

Mark has, on more than one occasion, either enjoyed his view and attempted to make Ma’s lemonade

Sinister : I destroyed a city for her attention it was a amazing "date "

Main mark I just took her to the farmer market you know like a normal date

The mark who is dating ultrawoman bragging he doesn't have a soft goody two shoes

Mowhawk mark thinking about stealing all the Kents for his harem

“I miss William…” “I miss Kent…”

But no one else would get the chance that brag about their Kent cause Emperor/Target Mark is already loudly bragging.

He gets a Kent who isn’t scared to join the Empire! He gets a Kent who isn’t soft and held back by humanity! He gets a Kent who gets it!

And that immediately causes irritation in every other Mark. No matter what they’re here for, or their own relationship with their Kent.

Now both kent and mark can eat weerd stuff together how romantic❤️ .

I can imagine kent eating a grande once and rex constantly waiting for tho to try though dynamite sticks using his powers

Um that's the most sus superman image of him eating uranium😭

This image is so cursed 😭

I can’t remember if I’ve put my ‘Superman eats rocks’ agenda into STS proper, but!

Kent ate rocks as a kid. Hell, she’d eat most things she could fit into her mouth.

And poor Ma and Pa would consistently have panic attacks when catching their little baby with something in her mouth who also proceeded to act like a dog and refuse to open it to let them see—

But, you’re so right. Cause I feel like Kent would absolutely panic if someone lobbed any kind of grenade, flashbang, tear gas, any kind of canister her way. And proceed to stick it immediately in her mouth.

(I feel like Rex would ask to experiment with it. If different intensities or different objects have different tastes… It would not take much for Kent to agree cause, it’s not lil it’ll hurt her??)
