you’re my friend, i shouldn’t be thinking about you like that

[sawyer-said]

Hello to any strong shippers, supergirl fans, and overall to friends. I’m here to defend Maggie’s character and even defend Floriana for some hatred I’ve seen thrown at the character and the actress. Things stated about both the character and the actress have gone too far. I understand preferences but starting whole hashtags to take down and harm an actress for playing her character to her best abilities, is past a point. I am planning to address the biggest issues and hatred I’ve seen regarding the character and the actress. I do hope you’ll take some time to read this and even reply with any questions or anything else you’d like to see me address. Before I fully begin, this will contain mentions of, abuse, alcoholic and or substance abuse, emotional abuse, abandonment, and things alike. Please be aware of those when reading. Thank you. Now to fully address this.

To begin with, I'd like to address the hatred towards Maggie and statements regarding her abusing Alex Danvers. Let me begin with the beginning. Maggie was made to be a character with a hard past. She was not supposed to be a joyful, sunshine and rainbow character. She had a hard life and was there to represent hardships. She was kicked out of her home by her parents, at age 14. For who she loved. That is not an easy thing to live with, no matter who you are. She even described her father as “The best father” in episode 3, season 3. The scene Alex is asking Maggie for more details about her abandonment. She says “Before that day, he was the best father. I know he sounds like a monster, but you don't know where he came from.” In this, you can already hear pain in her voice. Because she held hope for her father, as she states later in that episode. But the point of that is to state, Maggie had a close relationship with her father. She was betrayed by someone she loved and she was close to. She is not going to be all cheery and happy with a story like that. And one thing I believe happened is, her story was very censored for the fact the show could have gotten hate for controversial topics. I believe if her past with her dad was better portrayed she would have come off less harsh. Because then she would have been better understood. I understand Maggie did project a lot of her hardships and sadness onto Alex. But I believe she more confided in Alex than she did emotionally abuse Alex. Because again, Alex was the one that asked for more details, portraying the fact that Maggie didn’t seem to talk about herself, as stated in earlier episodes. Maggie did have a lot of problems, I will not say she’s a perfect character on her own. She is a character that in a case she was real, she would need therapy, and maybe even medicine to treat her. Maggie was a harsh character who meant the best. You could see how much she was there for Alex after the situation with Alex’s dad. She held Alex through her crying, and even reassured Alex that she could be told anything. She was there for Alex. They were there for eachother. But they had their issues. Maggie had a hard time with lying, yes. That is true. But she lied because she was scared of revisiting the past. Can you blame her for not wanting to address the past of her being abandoned on the side of the road? Really, a lot of her character was misunderstood. Last thing to address regarding Maggie is the drinking issues. A lot of people claim she did drugs or she was drunk and abusive. Well, to my close observations. Maggie didn’t do drugs, because well she was also a detective in the scientific department. But regarding the drinking, both Alex and Maggie drank. A lot. If you hate Maggie for her drinking issues, then you should hate Alex for the same thing. Everytime you see Alex sad, you see a drink in her hands. Both of them needed therapy, or even couple therapy. They were two broken people who had a very strong love for the other, but both had their own issues. Having issues does not make Maggie an abusive character. She was broken, but never abusive.

Now to address the hatred towards Floriana. I understand, you may dislike Maggie, or may believe things such as she is toxic or abusive. But Floriana is not her character, she is not Maggie Sawyer, she is not Darcy Cooper, ect. She is her own person doing her best. She is not a character. Therefore she does not deserve to receive hatred you have for her character. I understand disliking a character, but some people have gotten to a point of body shaming Flo just because they dislike Maggie. It is past a point to have such disrespect for someone for simply doing what they were hired for. You don’t know Floriana personally so none of us have the right to say whether she’s evil or whatever. I’m simply stating, please have basic respect for people. Actors and actresses are not their characters. Please have basic respect for them portraying the character to their best abilities.

If you have anything else you’d like to have me address you can do an “ask” thing. I will address all of them to my best abilities. Leave anything you’d like there. Anything regarding this, please leave in comments/replies. Also please keep conversation civil and respectful. Hope everyone has a great night <3

sooooo... supergirl is using Catalan protests in favour of the independence of Catalonia from Spain as people in favour of “Agent of liberty”.... I don’t think that’s what the demonstration was about xD

Brainiac 5 on Supergirl.

Anyone who knows my writing probably knows I’ve written free Sherlock Holmes novels. Well, that’s in large part because I *adore* smart characters! They are, to me, essential characters who aren’t paid enough attention or respect.

So imagine my shock when Querl Dox -- or we think he’s Querl, seeing as he’ s only referred to as ‘Brainiac’ * -- showed up in Supergirl (as show I adore). I mean, my past is littered with appreciation for smart characters, and one of my first faves was the Legion’s Brainiac 5. 

One of my ultimate favourite geniuses on Supergirl? 8D Yes: Squee.

A Coluan, he’s a technologist and inventor who has built a human-seeming to make the human beings around him more comfortable with his appearance, like so:

Because, otherwise, he looks disturbingly alien:

This is a mental-projection of Brainy (as he’s called), after he’s entered the protective, but inescapable ‘mental space’ created by Kara Zor-El (Supergirl). She made this trap for herself after she was delivered a public beat-down of legendary proportions by a baddie. He’s trying to help her accept the event, and either discover or create a way out, something like a therapist.

But he’s not the ideal when it comes to therapeutic treatments, folks; however, with his enhanced brain-power, he’s the only one who can reach her at the time. So the fate of Supergirl partially depended on the skills and awareness of a guy whose emotional quotient (or E.Q.) works like this:

Uh.... Make no wonder his early attempts to work with Kara end up with her mentally destroying a huge section of her projected apartment:

Yep. Brainiac is smart. He’s a 12th Level Intellect, a rare, certified, intergalactic genius, but the character gets really, really rich when he’s forced to work with unexpected events and emotional payloads. Like when he’s forced to deal with the creative genius that is Lena Luthor, and her interactions with his ship’s tech:

Because his mind, life, and schedule have always been so highly structured, the unexpected and unplanned are Brainiac’s bane. This leads to really delicious character opportunities. Human beings are not like the mechanized Coluans, and are masters of the unexpected. Now there are no social contracts, no awareness of the rarity and celebrity of what a 12th Level Intellect is: he has to deal with people, personally, no buffers.

New on Brainy.

Make no wonder this absorbing character has been brought on as a full-time member of the Supergirl cast. And believe me, no one could be happier about that than I am! I’ve always been a huge fan!

I cannot WAIT for next season!

* I stand corrected by cyclone-rachel who reminded me that he has, in fact, been referred to in the show more than once, as *Querl* Dox. And my day gets better still! Thank you, @cyclone-rachel!

SciFiNow Issue #137

Backstory: Had a dream last night that the titular character from classic Nickelodeon series Caitlin's Way became the Supergirl of her earth to which her powers and her origins didn't kick in until well into her adulthood. Furthermore, her kryptonian alias is Cir-El* *In reference to an obscure Supergirl character who held the mantle in the comics in the past. Since she had a punk rock look, decided to give her a variation of the 90s Superboy costume as well as one of her regular attires from her show to match with her look and personality. Hope you all enjoy!

3x13 TITLE REVEALED #supergirlseason3 #supergirl #supergirltv •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Welcome to your second Monday of no new Supergirl episodes. Its good to know we are less than 30 days away from a new episode! We'll be back with Kara, Spacedad, and the gang before you know it! Also, quite fitting that its a Monday, we have some new Supergirl news. The title for episode 313 has been revealed! It is "Both Sides Now". As always, we aren't entirely sure what this means but our first gut feeling is that Cadmus will return and The D.E.O. and Supergirl will be fighting enemies from "both sides". That is totally just conjecture though.
