《Dr Luthor - Supergirl AU》Danvers Lecture
Advertisement
Lena's POV
"Why the hell didn't you tell me. Kara said you knew so why didn't you tell me?" I jumped at the sudden Danvers Lecture happening while I was trying to study.
"Slow down, Alex. You storm into my office ranting and expect me to know what's going on?"
"Kara just told me of her... experiance during the surgery." It finally hit me. Kara told Alex about when she woke up. Why did Kara bring me into this?
"Yeah. Traumatic. Why are you scolding me?"
"Because I don't expect her to tell me. Talking about it alone brought her to tears. I sat with her for a while and she told me that you have known for quite some time. She needs her family and friends in times like this, not lies and manipulation."
"Wow! What part of not telling you is manipulation? I just thought that it would be better for her to tell you when she is ready."
"You lied. I asked if Kara told you anything and you would say 'no'. When I asked about how she was, you would say she was fine when really she was having PTSD from waking up during a surgery like that. You need to think of others apart from yourself."
"Alex, calm down," I said slowly, trying not to further anger her. "You have to understand that I kept it from you for her benefit. Just because I'm..."
"Just because you're a Luthor? You think I'm getting mad at you because you are a Luthor? Great, pull out that card every time someone gets mad at you for your wrongdoings. Then they feel bad because you have brought up how evil your mother is and they feel guilty. That's manipulation. That makes you more of a Luthor than your brother was."

"Don't bring Lex into this!" I stood and let my face go cold, bringing out someone I had never wanted to bring out ever again, the scared little girl that had just arrived at the Luthor mansion.
"Or what? You won't do anything to the sister of the woman you love."
"Oh, is that so?" I slowly walked around the desk, bringing myself inches away from her, making my posture as intimidating as possible. "I'm a Luthor. Don't be so sure that I won't kill you if you get in my way." I didn't know why I was saying what I was saying. Somehow, Alex bringing up Lex had turned me into the person I had always feared to be. I decided to make the threat more believable by hitting her square across the jaw. She fell to the ground but got up quickly, taking a swing at me but I dodged and hit her again but this time, in the nose. Alex looked up, staring at someone and when I went to turn, I heard a voice which gave away who was standing there.
"Don't you dare touch my sister again!" I felt pain explode down my back, originating from my head. My vision went blurry and black as I turned to see the woman I loved holding a thick sheet of metal.

The Queen's Guard
Friedrich Schreiner is a proud gefreiter of the Queen's Guard, 2nd Company: the finest fighting infantry on the continent (barring the Temple Guard; but please don't bring that up). Service is honourable but, with the Empire on a peacetime footing, terribly boring. Affairs take a dramatic turn for the worse when a mysterious invader uses a forgotten and taboo magical means to breach the capital, plunging the nation into chaos and endangering the royal family. With events spiraling out of control, Friedrich is entrusted with a critical mission. Will hot lead, cold steel, and his determination be enough to see him through? The Queen's Guard is what I'm calling a black powder fantasy story: it's set in a loose equivalent of the early 18th century (plus or minus a few pieces I decided I wanted or didn't want). Magic exists, but not in a spell-slinging sort of way: it's Earth-shaking undertakings or minor enchantments forged in by master craftsmen, the grand working of a secretive cabal or a slight nudge to the course of a blow. I, the eternal optimist, have a full trilogy in mind. The first book is The Prince's Arquebusier, hence the cover and the title disagreeing! This is my shot at 2021's NaNoWriMo and RR Writathon! I've hitherto been terrible at writing long-form fiction, so this is an effort to break out of that by having some accountability in being supposed to post chapters regularly. Here's hoping it works! I have an outline, but not too much detail. I'll do my best to avoid continuity errors, doing anything glaringly stupid, or otherwise fluffing my lines, but I can't make any promises on that. Please do let me know any feedback! Always happy to improve. [participant in the Nov 2021 Royal Road Writathon challenge]

THE WHISPERS IN THIS DARK, CRUEL, AND GHOSTLY WORLD
(Vampires & Humans Vs. Werewolves & Ghosts???)It is the year 2201, and the human race is at war with not only the next evolution of the human race, werewolves, but also against Nature itself. An Ancient race of underground dwellers called vampires live and tries to protect humanity by bringing the human population underground in their habitat. The humans and Vampires live in fear of the werewolves, but that is not all, If this was the worst of it all, then it would have been a rather nice end for a good bedtime story about humans and vampires leaving in harmony underground, but this was not the end and neither is this a bedtime story. Nature (planet) still had big plans for the world, even with the creation of its henchmen, the werewolves (who have no control over themselves at all, merely acting based solely on their biological instincts), that was still not enough for nature. Nature still needed one last thing, something that could give those werewolves orders, tell them what to do, guide them, something that would be a personification of nature itself, something that would be nature's full power, with its wisdom and knowledge, something that would be its symbol. Ghosts.
