TONIGHT: ACT 2 OF WAVE on Supergirl Virtual season.

Written by @subcutaneous7!

Go give @pinkrabbitpro and @xxtorchxx respectively love for their drawing and manip. Ao3 comments can go here. Or hit their ask boxes.

Alex led the team inside the rusted warehouse. It was dingier and more dilapidated than most hideouts their Fort Rozz escapees and other villains tended to pick. Agents flanked her on either side, guns drawn, search lights fixed to their tactical vests. Kara followed behind her, ready to throw herself in front of the group at a moment’s notice.

The smell of rotting flesh got more powerful as they proceeded. It was so pungent it made Alex gag. She stifled a cough against her arm, pausing briefly before signaling for them to keep going, adjusting the brace on her hand so she could grip her weapon more firmly. As they got closer, it became clear that this was a den of some sort, bones scattered across the floor, tattered rags acting as a makeshift bed and curtains. There were also newspapers, a toothbrush sitting in a putrid glass of water, bristles bent beyond repair, along with other items that would indicate a human had been living there. The excessive shedding and stench, however, told a different story.

“I thought werewolves only transformed in moonlight,” Kara whispered. “It’s not even dusk.”

“Maybe he’s something different.” Alex swallowed.

I got this twice!

I answered it here.

Also @subcutaneous7 is the best thing ever.

@damelola your tags are everything I need right now lol

WAVE: ACT 4. Tonight on Supergirl Virtual Season. 

Previously it was drunk dial time from @catgranting, isn’t it freaking adorable? Give it some love at her (tumblr) or on AO3 comments. 

Let’s see what @subcutaneous7 has in store this evening/morning... 

“Any ID on the victim?” Alex asked as she assembled her team.

“Looks like another John Doe,” J’onn shared. “Cadmus are picking off the homeless population like low hanging fruit, as if we needed any other indication of how evil they were.”

“I’ll start searching the neighborhood,” Kara offered.

“Not alone you won’t,” Alex insisted. “You need backup.”

The agents began loading their rifles. Alex saw Kara’s eyes go wide, taken aback by their glowing green artillery.

“Wait, what is that?” Kara shook her head. “I thought you gave all the DEO’s kryptonite to Kal?”

“We did.” J’onn looked away uncomfortably.

“So you lied?” Kara lashed out.

Ever since Astra’s death, Alex knew Kara had a visceral reaction to the prospect of using kryptonite. She more than anyone understood that. It made sense why Clark wanted to get rid of it all, even if working for the DEO made her more sympathetic to J’onn’s side of the debate.

Favorite thing about writing? Getting to visualize and bring to life interactions that I wish we could see in the show. Delving into the voices of each character and getting to live in their headspace for a little while. Oh, and the smut probably… What part of writing do you hate most? Self doubt. Knowing what you want to say and ripping out your hair until you can finally make it happen. What inspires you to write? Ladies, mostly older ladies. Chemistry between ladies. Also, when I am not writing it feels like a part of me is missing, like part of my brain has been shut off. Writing is a really integral part of the life I want to live. Which ships are you known for writing? Supercat, Grace and Frankie, J7 (Janeway/Seven, Star Trek: Voyager), Kegan (Megan/Kate, Body of Proof) What drew you to the Supergirl fandom? Calista. And all the amazing art and writing I was seeing. The fandom really got me to start watching the show. If you could have one Supergirl character in your life, who would it be and why? Cat or Alex. Cat would be a handful, but a worth-it handful. Alex would have my back no matter what. Where can people find your fics?

Written by @subcutaneous7:

As Cat continues to heal from her harrowing experience with Cadmus, she and Kara find new ways of working together. Meanwhile, Maggie and the NCPD investigate a string of gruesome murders, and Supergirl encounters a threat that makes her question everything she thought she knew about Krypton and the DEO.

Cat stared up at the ceiling for hours, watching the lights from the city dance like spirits across the smooth white surface, the grandfather clock ticking away rhythmically in the hall. Sleep never came easy for her, nor for very long for that matter, but lately it was nearly impossible. Alex and the rest of the medical team insisted she needed rest, and even she couldn’t argue with them this time. The ordeal with Cadmus had taken so much from her, and yet somehow, all she could fixate on was what may have been put back in.

“You know why we chose you, don’t you?” Lillian taunted, skin glowing green as the shadows from the cell lined her face.

“No.” Cat sighed, sitting crumpled and dirty in the corner of the cement block. “But I’m sure you’re going to tell me, so get on with it.”
