Alright bestie I’m on that shit again
So yandere Superman, right? Like obviously your fucked. The only other yandere in existence that might just be able to keep you from him is Batman, but even then he’d probably sooner work together just to ensure your safety- but that’s a prompt for another day.
Back to yan Superman, imagine you’re his darling and he is “keeping you safe”. But one day, you get snatched up by some organization that wants to use you as leverage or some shit, but you are just sobbing in relief at maybe being free- only to have Superman show up and do some not so super things to everyone who “stole” you
There are just so many casually horrifying things about Superman that people don't realize until you start like digging into his lore. "Oh he's super strong and a super fast flyer" actually he can do basically anything at those super speeds to the point he can literally even PROCESS THOUGHTS at near light-speed which means he has Absolutely Terrifying reaction times and can make plans and schemes on a dime, which, you know, can be even better utilized by him being intelligent. He has natural invulnerability so if you throw a punch at him too hard you could literally shatter the bones in your hand and he can't even control that, like you could literally hurt yourself with him on accident! He can see across INSANE DISTANCES and his x-ray vision doesn't have like a set range so he could do anything from, peep inside buildings to spy on you, to looking under your clothing for any bruises or injuries or even self harm marks, to peeking behind your hero disguise to learn your true identity, to seeing if there's anything inside your stomach and seeing if you're eating properly. Like jesus christ he literally found out Lois was pregnant from waking up one morning and suddenly hearing the heartbeat of the FETUS, there's literally nothing from him pulling that stereotypical "I know you're nervous or lying or afraid because I can literally hear your heartbeat increase" scary bullshit
And let's talk about Lois for a sec because my god her death was literally what kicked off the Injustice timeline? And there are other forms of Superman media where she just straight up dies naturally of cancer! Sure we could take the easy way and say "in this au Lois never existed or was just Clark's friend and he loved YOU" (which is my preferred default tbh bc, no competition for Reader lol) but I mean if you're going for that angst, that real whump, a yandere Clark Kent that just lost his wife/unborn child to either the Injustice incident or cancer, now overcome with grief? And in those cancer timelines they usually already have a son, Jonathan, and sometimes Jordan, and here's Clark thinking, well, his boy needs a mother, and he's got these weird feelings for you, and lil Jonny clearly has affection for you, maybe bring a bit of a platonic yan himself who sees you as either a big sister or even a secondary mom, so... be his wife maybe?
Like my god if Reader somehow helped him through the grief of losing Lois and managed to avoid "fully activating" Superman's anime villain arc, like he's going full fascist in the Injustice 2 Bad Ending, then some shit DEFINITELY goes down when Reader gets taken away. It just reactivates all his trauma. No! He can't lose anyone else! Jonathan can't lose anyone else! You're not just someone he loves, you're his FRIEND!
You're just huddled in whatever cell you've been kept in with your black eyes and bruises and knuckles bloodied from trying to fight back when you hear Clark's voice and you look up with excitement that just falls immediately off your face because holy shit did he just unlock that thumbprint scanner with a severed arm, and suddenly you're realizing there are other shades of red on his costume and dripping from his fingers
I can only imagine like, ngl I considered a sequel to my fic Doubt where Reader escapes the manor and runs into Supernan as the only other person who can protect you, so here we would have the inverse: you're the only one who knows about Clark's increasing instability and, while you still have your own freedom and autonomy, try to speak to Bruce about it, and now you have Batman Vs Superman: Competing For Your Heart Edition. I can only imagine what sort of unhinged reactions there would be if you think you've got Batman alone and you're beginning to cry all "Bruce I'm really worried about Clark, he isn't acting like himself, there's something wrong with him" and. Clark is like literally using his x-ray vision to read lips through the walls if he can't use his super hearing to outright eavesdrop.
Of course as you suggested, I'm always a slut for ideas with"oh shit I ran to this guy to help me and he's ALSO crazy, now they're teaming up and I'm in some weird shared/poly situation with TWO nutjobs". Lmao you go to Bruce concerned about Kal and Bruce goes to confront him and Clark just drops "did you know Y/N has been hiding self harm cuts under their hero suit also wow they smoke HELLA weed and im worried about their lungs and all the stuff they do when they're alone that no one else knows about 🥺" and suddenly here's Bruce " thanks i hate this actually :)" and there's a scheme concted to spy on you or move you elsewhere.
I've even thought of "Reader oh nooOoooOo, that, giant monster or villain attack or whatever also coincidentally destroyed your shitty little apartment complex? You mean Clark 'accidently' got sent flying into your building or smacked some giant creature into it and now you don't have a place to live? And you're broke too? Oh no 🥺 Well, BATMAN has this nice big house with lots of room in for you to stay toooootally 'temporarily', we PROMISE uwu"
Batman is the one who can put a tracking chip injected into your skin or even disguised as a filling in one of your teeth, and Superman is the one who can zoom off to rescue you/retrieve you "faster than a speeding bullet". I think one of the only people who could bring them down together at that point would be like. Fucking DARKSEID and, Jesus no, you definitely don't want HIM treating you as a pet 😭 the evil Batman that was brainwashed by him in the Apokolips War movie was scary enough (and scary HOT, lmao, let him keep me as some sort of prize and the only luxury Darkseid will allow him as a reward for his obedience. Lord Batman goes from having a meeting talking about like enslaving people to returning to his quarters and railing tf outta you because he's still holding onto some slim vestiges of humanity where he cares about you but also using you as his personal anti stress fuck toy)

Matthew gives Dream a gift - inspired by this post by @themirokai, who writes excellent emotional-support-raven!Matthew content!
(Image ID under the cut)
Image ID:
digital art kept mostly in black-and-white greyscale, featuring Matthew the raven and Dream of the Endless from The Sandman.
Matthew is standing on the table, wings folded against his body and gazing slightly up, holding a necklace with a large sapphire pendant in his beak, which he is offering to Dream. The blue of the sapphire is the only colour in the picture.
Dream is seated next to the table, arms folded, holding a closed book in one hand. He has unruly black hair, very pale skin, and black eyes with a white, star-shaped pupil. He is also very thin and skeletal, and wearing a flowing black robe that leaves his neck, lower arms, and part of his midriff bare, and is held together by a pin on one shoulder.
He is leaning slightly down towards Matthew and has a small smile on his face, seemingly pleased with his gift.

the way that my boss continues and always irritate me and try to undermine me is going to be the death of me, i swear
i was to meet with her today to go over a cohort review of companies we are helping, for an hour. but this morning, at the last minute, she informed me that we need to move it to monday (mind you, we have already moved this once before). cohort reviews aren't terribly important in the list of meetings, it is mostly just her and i talking about the different companies and what we need to do with them. easily manageable yet still time consuming.
the time slot she asked for, we are booked to meet with a new company, to which i informed her, and she said that "oh we will just move the meeting, or have someone else support it." no? the purpose of introduction meetings is that she and i are to meet with them, vet them, and decide if they are a good fit for our cohort. that is the purpose of those meetings. i informed her that everyone else have already met with this company, and they are waiting for us to meet with them. ADDITIONALLY, this meeting has been scheduled for WEEKS, versus our cohort review meeting which she continues to cancel and move and adjust accordingly to her own travel plans.
i told her that we should just go ahead and move the meeting to another day, or at least move the introduction meeting, and she tells me that it will be fine, and that we do not need to be there. when i reached out to our team, they tell us: no we should reschedule, so that you two can meet with this company. (aka, what i told my boss)
i informed her that i am moving the introduction meeting to another day, and she doubts me and asks, "per greg's request?" like?????? yes, per his request, i know how to do my mf job. also i don't need his request? i have been on these calls enough to know what we need and who we don't need. i have led these meetings by myself because she has been too busy traveling to FL or CO to bother about these meetings.
additionally, now she took the only time slot that i have that is a break before my 6 hours of meeting, back to back.
