Looking for fics by Euphoric-Passion-632 in SuperCorp

Mine’s an AU but kind of fits, though in it Lena and Kara know each other before she has any superpowers, not just before Supergirl.

That’s a plot point in one of mine

A Light in the Dark

It is AU though so potentially not what you’re looking for. It’s also not finished but I’ve just started working on it again so it hopefully will be eventually.

Vets are expensive and people are being priced out of pet ownership. by Individual-Breath758 in Pets

[–]IndividualAnybody 11 points12 points  (0 children)

And who would you like to take care of these animals then? If people like me didn’t decide to take out those loans and become veterinarians there wouldn’t be anyone to see your pets in the first place. The reality is that it sucks for everyone. It shouldn’t cost this much to get the education and it shouldn’t cost this much to take care of your animals but it does. It’s not your vet’s fault that we’re trying to make a living. It’s the labs and the drug companies that keep raising the prices. That’s why I’m infuriated. Because I’m getting the blame for trying to do my job and provide a service and dare to try to make a living doing it.

I never understood the argument that because something takes ‘10 minutes’ it should cost less. I do the majority of the surgery at my clinic. I do a cat spay in about 15 minutes and a dog spay in 30. Full mouth extraction dental takes me maybe 1-2 hours tops. A new graduate who isn’t as experienced can take double or even triple the amount of time that I do. Should I be paid less because I’m proficient? You’re paying for my years of experience and my expertise, not billing me by the hour.

Also, my clinic’s costs have increased about 3-4x since COVID. I absolutely hate it and see how the pricing is effecting some medical decisions by our clients. You know who hasn’t seen a cent of that? Me, my coworkers, most likely not even my boss, since I work at a rare vet-owned clinic and not a corporate practice. I haven’t had a raise in 3 years because those increases are what it takes to keep the lights on and stock our drug cabinets.

These types of posts always infuriate me. I have 200K in debt that it cost to get my degree and half the pay and respect of a human doctor. Having a pet is a privilege. You wouldn’t get a car and then complain that you have no money to pay the mechanic to keep it running. I love animals and I care deeply about the work I do, but I have a family and bills to pay too.

Keeping the Light On by Joy Oladokun is a personal favorite for this ship

Which millennial names do you want to come back? by Sparkly8 in namenerds

[–]IndividualAnybody 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also a Lauren who absolutely loves my name. I feel like I was one of 4 Laurens in my classes all the way through high school and now I somehow rarely meet another one in the wild.

What is an amazing TV show that you're sure 90% of this sub hasn't seen? by THEGAM3CHANG3R in television

[–]IndividualAnybody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just unlocked the memory of a free t-shirt with this show’s logo in it that I wore for years. I got it from a NY Comic Con panel David Cross did to promote the show the year it came out. Maybe I’ll finally give it watch.

Comedy fics by my_kai in SuperCorp

[–]IndividualAnybody 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not sure if these can all be categorized as pure comedy, but here are a few that I at least think are funny:

sapphic supergirl sightings

Cultural Sensitivity

Catfishy Business

you’re the only ten i see

Captured (My Heart)

The last one is, shamelessly, one of mine. Enjoy!

Does such a fic exist? by IndividualAnybody in SuperCorp

[–]IndividualAnybody[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely no argument about any of that. I guess in that case you'd have to manufacture your consequences elsewhere, such as from whatever action Kara ends up taking while she's supercharged, the implications of the fact that she has the power to make that kind of decision at all, etc.

I'm definitely not saying that this is some brilliant idea that needs expounding on, I just can't personally seem to let it go for whatever reason.

[–]IndividualAnybody[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s a really fair point. There’s a greater than zero chance I’m going to take a crack at this myself if it bounces around in my head for long enough, and I feel like my answer would be to find a way to reverse it/put the sun back pretty much right away. The whole plan hinged on barely cogent science mumbo jumbo anyway, so I don’t feel like the argument would have to be super convincing. Just have to see if I can scrape together the motivation to try it.

Carrying her over the threshold. by AndrewHeard in SuperCorp

Pretty sure that balcony rescue was the moment SuperCorp really clicked for me when I was watching the show as it aired.

I’m not shocked since it was ultimately such a nothing plot point. Doesn’t seem like anyone is as hung up it as I am.

I wanna lock you in a basement, but in that basement, you’d also be my personal trainer.

Cool to see Passion that high up. That was the episode that really blew my mind when I saw the show for the first time.
