Dansen - Tumblr Posts

I have a wishlist for the rest of Supergirl season 6. I know that most of the episodes have already been shot, and the others are planned out. But if even 1/3 of these things happen, I will be content.

— An entire episode focusing on Kelly and Alex’s relationship with a heavy amount of flashbacks to fill in the gaps of their relationship. Sort of like the Andrea and Lena episode, but with some scenes between Dansen that were likely already filmed and cut. It’d be nice to have James there too.

— Nia coming into her powers to the point where she can take over for Supergirl by the show’s end. For Kara it’d be great for her superheroics to go down to more of a part time job.

— A character or two supporting Kelly Olsen for once.

— J’onn J’onzz getting hobbies and having fun outside of missions.

— J’onn acknowledging that M’gann was the one to resist the white martians well before he came into her life (I’m still salty about him getting the credit for that.) Maybe it doesn’t matter with the new multiverse. So either way M’gann getting something again in her life aside from J’onn like a career, reconnecting with old alien friends from the bar etc.

— Everyone getting therapy. And from someone other than Kelly. At the very least Kara, Alex, and Lena.

— Alex and Kelly having the child Alex always wanted by the last episode.

— Lena and Kara rebuilding their friendship and then...

— For Lena and Kara to realize they’re in love with each other and to be together. It doesn’t need to be a drawn out deal — the building blocks have been there. Just them together, okay? Okay.

— For Lex to become an insignificant villain who Lena takes down in a simple way, mid-episode with the focus being on her healing. Because he’s become that inconsequential by the end. No more grand, self-indulgent villain speeches from Lex.

— A cameo from Calista Flockhart’s Cat Grant. Maybe over the phone.

— For Lena to apologize to Eve eventhough Eve won’t understand it.

— One more mini-crossover for Kara and Barry Allen.

— While in therapy, for Kara to start processing some of her trauma especially with the death of her planet, having had to suppress who she is, abandonment stuff with her parents, and her two stints in the Phantom Zone.

— For Kara to live. No Oliver Queen-ing her.

— At least two heartfelt, gut wrenching Alex and Kara sister moments.

— More Brainy bonding with everyone, but especially Nia and Lena.

— Eliza Danvers being there when Kara returns.

— To hear about James’ new startup thriving.

— One more Sam appearance.

— For Kara to emotionally reconcile the two parts of herself as her. No more cognitive dissonance as a coping mechanism by the show’s end. And for Kara to have screen time outside of the Supergirl uniform. I don’t care if it’s through Catco, or now that all of her friends know her identity having more game nights where she flies around, but something.

Feel free to add on with your wishlist!

Okay, but the PR people or whoever has been in charge of letting us down somewhat gently (from the clusterfuck queerbaiting of S5) has been masterful. Two of the actresses who we love, Azie and Nicole are moderating Tvline and SG’s Instagram pages, hopefully mitigating a lot of outrage (and unfortunate hate speech) out of that respect and adoration. Katie gave this interview that pretty much confirmed a platonic best friend’s ending, and it was kind, honest, and came from a place of careful consideration for her character. Alex and Kelly’s wedding is tonight. And while queerbaiting can and does continue to exist within the same realm as a lesbian wedding, we also care about Alex and Kelly’s journey and want to enjoy their happiness. Kara and Lena spent 2/3 of the season apart, and the rebuilding friendship phase was skipped over. The directors cut out things like holding hands and honestly went way overboard in not allowing them to be in close physical proximity, the writing has been fairly romantic in subtext but more vague “we are your family” etc. I am disheartened sure, but I am also impressed.

I feel like there must have been a ton of people who were chiefly responsible for steering around this baiting shitstorm as much as possible. As I’ve said before regardless of Supercorp’s canon status, nothing can take away the validity of that interpretation. Anyway, I admire the actors and wish them everything. And I’m going to miss this show, even though I really think it’s for the best that it’s ending.

(Also to clarify, I am still upset and grieving over Supercorp. The baiting really wasn’t necessary. I’m gonna go rewatch She-Ra now.)

Would anyone be interested in an Arrowverse Zine that showcases queer couples of color? Canon and non-canon alike. Would you be interested in reading or buying such a zine? Are there artists who would like to contribute their art and short stories? Interest in being a moderator? Any profit made would be donated.

I am going to tag a few couples I know about but please feel free to reblog with other pairs I am less familiar with. I just want to see what kind of interest this garners. (I’m also gonna tag Supercorp because they’re my first fandom.)

Thank you for the reblog! I think I have enough people interested that I’m going to start. I’m still looking for artists and writers! Especially artists. Please keep spreading. I’ll create an application in the next week or so for interested folks.

I am NOT saying that Lena would totally have a breakdown over losing Kara that shortly after them rekindeling their friendship, but the only way that last episode would have made sense if Alex had told Lena that they would get Kara back before sundown.

Also, justice for Dansen, the sidelining is horrible

Imagine the show's writers actually gave a crap about the characters and would give them great arcs

I’ve kind of become drunk on my own power, I’m not gonna lie. I’m kind of like, “I AM DREAMER.” I keep having to remind myself I am not actually a superhero in real life. I said I love Dreamer’s superpowers, and with the comic, I’ve maybe sprinkled in a few new things in there for fun. I’m having such a blast. Although I’m worried I may have made her a “Mary Sue,” but you know what? Superman has super strength, super speed, heat vision, X-ray vision, frost breath, super hearing, invulnerability, he can survive in space, he can fly, and he’s bulletproof, so I don’t care. Trans folks have one person, so Dreamer can do whatever she wants.

Me focusing on Dansen.

@azietesfai on IG treated us with her story with some bts of the wedding episode bc of one year #Dansen after the fandom surprised her and chyler with really lovely congrats.

And here from @nicolemaines ig story.

I miss them all.

A little late in the day, but whatever. I was waiting for the perfect pic. Happy Lesbian Visability Day!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

For years I have actively avoided all things super hero related for various reasons, but mostly because Marvel makes it all look like a bunch of white boys running around fighting which gets old. Thanks to DC's Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl, I have changed my mind. Not only do I ship Avalance and Dansen so hard (without those couples I'd have never given the shows a chance), but I love how both shows bring representation of so many to the forefront and I'm a sucker for how much they promote positive relationships in all forms; i.e. female friendships, close male friendships, strong support systems for friends/partners, sincere apologies when someone fraks up, but the others forgive and help them be better without guilt.
