My biggest wish for the dcu, that will most definitely never come true, is for the stargirl cast to come back at some point
They don't need to specifically be the ones from the show, I just think the casting for that show was peak, and I think these actors deserve another shot
This also goes for Matt Ryan as Constantine

A Promise for the Future
My 3x12 fic. Not as long as my usual fics, mostly bc I’m kinda hitting writing burnout. Too many essays for school and podcast scripts due 😪 But Stargirl is my everything and I will not miss out on writing fics for the final few episodes!!
.
When he showed up to the door, Beth wasn’t exactly sure what she was expecting. Last she’d seen Rick he was yelling, telling off her and her parents for trying to get him to take off the hourglass. When she sees him at the door, however, she knows that’s not the state he’s in. Not anymore. Standing there, arms wrapped around himself, he looks so… sad. 
He can’t make eye contact, staring at the floor as he hesitates in the doorway, as if he doesn't know if he’s welcome here anymore. As if the JSA weren’t still his family. Beth takes it upon herself to grab his hand and leads him inside, all the way to the couch. He doesn’t say much, not until they get him seated. Then he can’t stop apologising, shaking, fiddling with the hourglass but never taking it off. He can’t. He says as much, describing in detail what happened when he took it off before he came here. Beth has to stop herself from crying. The fact that he went through so much pain alone breaks her heart. 
“I called you Rick, why didn’t you answer?” She finally asks, and Rick looks away.
“I… I couldn’t. I saw you calling, but before I never wanted to answer. I wanted to be left alone. But that time I did. I wanted to answer, but I couldn’t. I just…” He takes a shuddering breath, blinking away tears.
“It’s okay, Rick. You’re here now.” Yolanda offers, but Rick still doesn’t look up, eyes glued to the floor.
“I guess.”
The conversation drags on, with everyone asking Rick questions and reassuring him interchangeably. Things only pause when Rick mentions Sylvester. Then the pieces begin to fall together. Sylvester should’ve known about the limiter, he’d helped Rick’s father. A quick glance between Courtney and Yolanda confirms Beth’s fears. They’re all thinking the same thing. 
Sylvester had set Rick up. 
The feeling of unease that settles over the group is palpable, nobody quite sure what to say. Barbara and Courtney leave the room to try and get ahold of Pat. Yolanda sticks around for a while, but when it becomes clear there’s nothing she can do to help, she heads out too. That left Rick and Beth. Rick is quiet, almost curled into himself. This entire time he hasn’t spoken unless he’s being spoken to, and now is no different. He’s in his own world. Beth takes a deep breath, grabbing her goggles and sitting down beside Rick, close enough that they’re shoulder to shoulder. He needs human contact at this point, she knows that. There’s a moment of quiet, just them sitting together, leaning close. 
“Hey, Rick? I’d like to check your vitals with my goggles. Just to see what’s wrong. If that’s alright?”
Rick doesn’t say anything, he just nods. Beth moves slowly, carefully, as if moving too fast would scare Rick. Once her goggles are on, she scans him over. The prognosis is… less than stellar. His heart rate and blood pressure are up and he shows signs of a wide variety of other issues. His broken ribs from the fight with Cameron are still healing, but the good news is they are healing. It’s a start, as least. 
“When Barbara and Courtney come back, I’ll get them to get you some pain killers, okay? And I’ll call my mom in as soon as possible. She’ll know how to help. Then we’ll get that hourglass off of you. I promise.” Beth assures him, leaning forward to squeeze his hand reassuringly.
“That bad, huh?” Rick huffs with a small chuckle. He doesn’t look at Beth but rather places his head on her shoulder. 
Beth sighs, and leans her head against Ricks. “It could be worse. You’ll be okay. I’ll make sure of it.”
She feels Rick shuffling beside her, and it takes her a minute to recognise that he’s crying. He’s trying to keep quiet, Beth knows he doesn’t want her to see him like this but she doesn’t care. She loves him. Even when he’s going through hell, she’ll love him still. She knows that. She just needs him to know that. She lets go of his hand and moves her arm so it’s around his back, letting her hand run through his hair idly in any attempt to calm him down. She just wants him to know he’s safe now, to let them know she doesn’t care. Even if he’s spent weeks ignoring her, it doesn’t matter. It’s Rick. She’ll stay by his side no matter what.
Her arm around him seems to be enough signal for Rick that it’s okay to let go. He almost collapses onto her, throwing his arms around Beth with a sob. He keeps holding her like a lifeline. She thinks he’s saying sorry, but his face is buried in the knitted down of her vest. She just keeps her arm around him, keeps holding him close, keeps telling him it’s okay. He’ll be okay. They stay like that for a while, listening to the wind howling outside and the quiet conversation in the kitchen. Beth can tell by the tones of voice that Courtney and Barbara are beginning to panic. 
That doesn’t bode well. 
She just keeps reassuring Rick, tries to keep him busy, but she knows there’s only so long she can keep this up before things get worse. Barbara and Courtney could come in with bad news and just exacerbate the situation. If Rick knows that someone he cares about is in danger he’ll never take off the hourglass, not if he knows that it can help. As much as Beth knows Rick’s help in battle is needed, it’s not what he needs to hear right now. Right now he needs to know it’s okay to take off the hourglass and just decompress. Otherwise, she fears he might never take it off and then… She doesn’t want to think about that.
“How about we head outside for a minute, I think you need fresh air.” Beth offers. Rick doesn’t let go of her, but she feels his best attempt at a nod from where his head is resting against her shoulder.
Getting Rick up is easier than she expected. Nobody seems to notice her leading him outside, their hands entwined. Rick is clinging to her hand, following behind her like a lost child, almost stepping on her heels. Courtney and Barbara don’t notice them, too busy huddled around their phones. Beth isn’t sure if she’s grateful for that or not. She wants them to help Rick, to get this hourglass off of him as soon as possible, but she also understands their concern towards Pat. She just wishes things were easier, that she could just help Rick now, and then worry about everything superhero related later. 
She grabs her coat from the coat hanger by the door, and grabs one of Pat’s coats for Rick, and then leads him outside. It’s not snowing yet, but the bitter chill to the whipping wind tells of the coming winter. If Rick is cold, he doesn’t indicate it. His stare is blank as he gazes off of the porch into the street, the yellow glow of the street lamps reflecting in his eyes as he lets go of Beth’s hand and leans against the porch railing.
“This is my fault.”
“Rick-”
“No, it is. I should have never taken off the limiter. Then maybe things would be better. I could’ve helped with Jordan, I could’ve… I could’ve helped.”
“You still can help, Rick. You just need to take care of yourself first. Please. For me.” She moves to stand beside him, trying to gauge what he’s feeling.
Rick looks over to her, and it’s not something she’s ever seen in him before. He looks scared, but he also looks… she can’t pinpoint it exactly. The closest word she could think of was awe. He was looking at her as if she held the very world in her hands. She doesn’t of course, but that doesn’t make the way he’s looking at her make any more sense. 
“Rick, are you okay?”
“Yeah… Yeah. I was just thinking. That’s all.” He assures her, but he keeps ringing his hands together nervously. 
Beth takes it upon herself to take his hands in her own. To keep them still, she tells herself. And to keep them warm. Rick smiles at that, if only a little. She catches it, just a small tug at the edge of his lips but to her it’s enough. It’s progress. She knows then, that he’ll be alright. They both will be. Once this is all over, they’ll be okay. She’s not reassuring herself, this time. Not like all the days she spent searching for Rick, telling herself it would probably be fine, that everything would probably be okay. No, this time it’s a promise. A promise that everything will turn out.

Hournite Fic- First Date
I started writing this fic prior to tonight's episode (definitely inspired by @hournites post from yesterday). But I also wanted to do a service to the fans. We're all a mess right now after finding out about the cancellation and I wanted to do this for us. We all matter and I wish things were different.
I want you all to know I appreciate everyone who came together the last few years and uplifted this amazing show.
I'll have more to say once we get closer to the finale, but today, I "Got Ya".
(You can also read my fic on my ff.net)
As always, happy reading!
------
A soft autumn breeze ruffles the orange and yellow leaves on the black pavement of Blue Valley as day turns to night.  The street lamps flicker on one at a time, lighting the litter free streets full of light.  A yellow mustang travels down the street at a safe speed, heading to its destination for the evening.  Soft music plays in the car, calming the nerves of the teen behind the steering wheel.  Ever so often, his hazel eyes would glance at the clock on the dashboard, hoping he’d make it on time to make a good first impression.
            The passenger seat was occupied by a single sunflower.  Rick glances down at the flower and then back at the road.  A soft smile gracing his usually annoyed complexion.  Tonight was their first date and he wanted to make sure it was perfect.
            You know something will go wrong, Tyler.
            Rick shakes himself of his negative thoughts as he pulls up to the old Victorian house.  He glances up at the house and sees Beth walking past her bedroom window.  His heart jumps to his throat seeing her.  He remembers the first time he felt this feeling for her…over two years ago.  When he caught her after Yolanda pulled her out of the window and she flipped into his arms.  He knew from that moment on he was doomed.  
            Mustering up all his Hourman courage, he turns his car off and steps out of the vehicle.  His converse hitting the ground is the only sound for miles as he makes the long walk up Beth’s driveway.
            Taking a deep breath, Rick pushes the doorbell.  The sounds was deafening as he can hear a faint “coming!” from somewhere within the house.  Rick runs a hand through his dark hair as he waits for his best friend to appear.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beth had just finished putting on her mascara when she heard the distinct sound of the mustang engine roaring down her block.  She walked past her window to see the vintage yellow vehicle parked outside her home.
            She giggled to herself as she moved past the bay window and to her white dresser.  She looked herself over one last time; Courtney let Beth borrow one of her dresses, a deep orange velvet dress with brown buttons down the middle.  She paired it with a white long sleeve shirt underneath to keep warm and a pair of black booties, giving her a few inches of height.  Beth blushes when she thinks about what Yolanda said when she handed her the pair of boots.
“You know,” Yolanda teased. “so Rick doesn’t need to lean down too far when he kisses you.”
To say the least, Beth was mortified as she left the Montez household earlier that day.
It was well past six in the evening when the doorbell chimed at the Chapel household.  Beth glanced at the clock reading 6:50PM in bright red.  Beth smiles knowing Rick made a great effort to be on time.  Their movie doesn’t start until eight, but they wanted to stop at Richie’s for a quick dinner before the new superhero movie they planned on seeing. 
“Coming!”  She yells as she grabs her phone and her small yellow leather crossbody bag.  Typically Beth would bring her backpack, but tonight was different.
Tonight everything will change.
She checks to make sure her goggles are in her purse before making her way down the stairs.  Beth pauses at the large mahogany door in front of her.  She takes a deep breath to calm herself.
It’s just you and Rick.  Nothing new…except now your feelings are out there.
Shaking herself from her doubts, Beth opens the door and is rendered speechless.
She knew Rick was handsome, but the boy standing before her is not what she expected.  His usual lax style was replaced by a less baggy attire, and more form fitting.  His signature hoodie replaced by a brown leather jacket.  His old warn jeans replaced by black straight leg jeans and a new dark blue sweater Beth has never seen before.
“Rick…” She steps forwards and tugs at the end of his jacket and then glances up at him.  She was surprised by how much effort he put in and her heart swells that he did this for her, for them.  “You look very nice.”
He grins bashfully and looks away somewhat embarrassed.  “I uh, wanted to look my best for you.” He admits and takes her hand in his.  He looks her up and down and smiles, “You look beautiful, Beth.”
The flutter was back in her stomach as she smiles wider at Rick, “Thank you, Courtney and Yolanda were a big help.”  And she was glad they intervened when she told them Rick had finally asked her out.  She never been more unprepared for a moment like this.  But it was worth it, the way he was looking at her…she wanted to remember this moment forever.
Breaking the silence between the two, Rick tugs her hand in the direction of his car.  “We should get goin’ so we can grab a bite before the movie.”
Beth nods in agreement and lets him lead the way to his car.  He opens the passenger side door, but before she can move to slide in, he reaches down and picks up the sunflower on the seat.  Beth feels her breath catch in her throat, he got her a flower.  But not any flower, a sunflower.  Awhile ago, when she and Rick were at the Pit Stop working on her goggles, she noticed he had put a sunflower next to her name in his phone.  She never understood why at the time, but she get is now.
“Is that for me?”
He looks down to the flower between his rough hands and back up to her, “This is gonna sound so stupid…”  
Beth tilts her head in curiosity, “No, please tell me.”  She steps forward and place her hand atop of his holding the dark green stem of the flower.  He looks down at her hand on his.
“Awhile back, you had these sunflower earrings and necklace on and it was just so you.  And this was at the beginning of all this.  Us becoming a team and friends.”  He spoke softly feeling as thought saying this too loud would sound ridiculous to Beth.  “And whenever I see sunflowers it always reminds me of you.”  He pushes the flower into her hand and grins.  “Zeek also said it was improper not to properly woo a lady.” He joked.
Beth laughs, taking the flower from him and hold it close.  “Awe, that’s so sweet, Rick!”  She brushes a soft kiss across his cheek.  Rick’s eyes widen at the surprise affection.  It felt like when he turns over the hourglass, a sudden rush of feeling that completely blinds him.
Still standing there in shock, Beth giggles to herself.  “We should get going.” She slides in to the car and lets Rick shake himself from his stupor and shuts the door behind her.  As he take the walk around his car all he can keep thinking about the small brush of her lips against his cheek and how if she actually kissed him, he would be a goner.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was almost 11PM when Rick pulled up to Beth’s house.  If Rick were being honest, he doesn’t think his life can get any better than this.  At the diner, everything felt just right.  At first, him and Beth sat across from each other in their usual booth, but when dessert came around, a slice of Maria’s homemade three layer chocolate cake, Beth motioned for Rick to sit next to her to share the dessert.  He laid his arm on the back of the booth and Beth settled into his side like it was the most natural thing in the world.  He never realized how they always seemed to gravitate towards one another.  If anything, he’s noticed more recently during JSA meetings he would pull his stool closer to Beth or sit behind her on the steps.  He wanted to be close to her and he thought it was his imagination when she’d lean closer to him or settle back against his leg on the steps.
            He genuinely believed he made it all up.
            But after tonight, he doesn’t think he can go back to how things were between them.  The longing stars from across the garage.  The shared looks when Courtney says something ridiculous and they always seem on the same page when it comes to her antics.  Or the random or not so random subtle brush of hands when they walk down the hallway at school…
            So deep in thought, he didn’t even realize Beth was speaking to him.
            “I’m sorry, I totally zone out.  What’d you say?”  He turns to her, seeing her completely swallowed by his leather jacket.  At some point during the movie, he noticed Beth shivering and offered his jacket.  When she put it on she pulled it tight around herself and leaned her head against his shoulder.  After that, he seemed to forget the movie they were watching and just watched her reacting to it.
            Beth giggles, “I said ‘can you walk me to my door?’”
            Rick turns his car off, “Yeah, of course.”  He hops out of the car and walks over to the passenger side.  He holds a hand out to Beth which she gladly accepts and steps out of the vehicle.  He shuts the door behind her and they walk hand and hand up to her front door.
            Beth puts down the sunflower on the wooden bench outside her door and takes a step closer to Rick.  She was close enough that she didn’t have to strain her neck to look up at him, courtesy of the boots she was wearing.
            Rick seemed to realize at that same moment how much taller Beth was in those heels too.  Not significantly but enough that he can tilt his head down and their lips would brush.  Being this close to Beth was already making his brain short circuit, his palms were sweety and his heart racing a mile a minute.
            Slowly, Beth trails her hands up his soft blue sweater, settling them against the back of his neck.  Instinctually, Rick wraps his arms around her waist, touching the soft velvet of her dress.  He tils his head down causing his nose to brushes against hers.
            “Is this okay?” he softly asks.  He watches the emotions play out on her face before she answers, “Yes.  It’s okay.”  Hesitantly, Rick eliminates the space between them and pulls her close.  He never thought much about who and where he would have his first kiss.  But he’s glad it was with his best friend.  Someone he knew he couldn’t help but care for and quite possibly be in love with.  It wasn’t what he expected it to be like either.  He figured he’d be a mess and fumble to get to this point, but Beth always had this aura about her that calms him down and helps him think clearly.
            But right now was not a think clearly kind of moment, especially when Beth threads her finger through his hair and tilts her head to deepen the kiss.  Any thoughts he had are far gone as he pulls her closer and enjoys this one normal moment in his life.
            Beth eventually pulls back and rest her forehead against Rick’s catching her breath.  Her hand falls to his heart, feeling his heart beat erratically against his chest.
            She gazes into his eyes and smiles, “Well that happened.”  
Rick chuckles, “Yeah, it finally did.”  He tilts her chin up and brushes a soft kiss across her lips and reluctantly pulls away from her.  “I should get going.”  Beth nods in agreement and removes herself from him.  She picks up her flower and opens her front door.  Before she shuts it she turns back to him.  He was leaning against the door frame watching her with this serene look in his eyes and a small smile gracing his lips.
He's never looked at me like this before…
“I’ll see you tomorrow?” She asks hopeful that this wasn’t just one night.  That they will continue to have these moments for however long he will let her.
He nods, “See you tomorrow, Chapel.”  He winks at her and turns, making his way down her driveway and back to his mustang.
She shuts the door and falls against it, letting out a girlish squeal and runs up the stairs to her room and to her bay window.  She watches as Rick looks up to the window and waves before getting into his car and driving off.
A few moments of watching the empty street her phone begins to ring.
INCOMING FACETIME CALL: COURTNEY
Beth stares down at her phone in disbelief, how did they know she was home?
“Hey!”
Her phone populates with Courtney and Yolanda’s faces.
“BETHHOWDIDTHEDATEGOT”
“TELLUSEVERYTHING”
Beth’s eyes widen at the onslaught of questions.
“Whoa guys, one at a time!”  Beth says.  “Also, how did you know Rick just dropped me off anyways?”
Courtney’s blue eyes widen in disbelief, “Beth Chapel, did you blow curfew?!”
“Beth, is that Rick’s jacket?!”  Yolanda gasps. “He gave you his new leather jacket?!”
Beth rolls her eyes, “I’m not telling you guys anything.”
The two teenaged girls groan in unison.
“Oh, c’mon, Beth!”  Courtney groans.  “You gotta tell us something!”
Beth laughs, “Fine.  I’ll tell you one thing and only one thing.  Okay?”
Both teens squeal in excitement.
“Yolanda.”
“Yes?”
Beth blushes.  “You were right about the shoes.”
Yolanda’s jaw drops.  Courtney looks between the two in confusion.
“YOU AND RICK KI—”
Beth ends the call and falls back on her bed with a happy sigh.
You kissed Rick!! 
She pulls Rick’s jacket closer to her and smiles to herself feeling over the moon.  She never thought she could feel so many emotions all at once, but she’s happy they took this step.
And she knows she’ll never look back.

Omg (I’m hournites btw) I saw your tags about how you had to refrain about writing a book on that Hournite moment in your review but please spill a paragraph or two here so I’m not the only one ranting and raving about it 😭
How kind of you for reaching out to read my review. Here it is! And if you have a moment to spare and like my review, it helps more than you may realize to interact with my tweet about the review.
