Jon Kent: This Internship Is My Kryptonite (2025)

THE SON OF KAL-EL AND LOIS LANE FACES HIS GREATEST CHALLENGE YET—A DAILY PLANET INTERNSHIP!   By writer Sam Camp (Little Hollow Café) and artists Daimon Hampton and Seraji, Jon Kent is a super-powered hero in his own right, but how do those powers help him move beyond the mundane coffee orders, endless research, and “educational experience” the Daily Planetreporting staff deems necessary for those essential college credits? Especially when your mom is the editor-in-chief—hello, nepotism concerns! What’s more, his best friend thinks the internship is a waste of his time and talents, his boyfriend tries to be supportive but is wary of Jon’s new boss’s Superman obsession, and naturally his parents think this is a great opportunity, but life as a superhero daylighting as a reporter is a little different today than it was back then…

Hey, silly random thought- what if Ascharya could see spirits/ghost simply as a side effect from Macaque being revived from the dead.

Just a silly thought I just got and curious how that'll play out ◝⁠(⁠⁰⁠▿⁠⁰⁠)⁠◜

OH also I don't fully remember if someone else asked this or something similar over on here or over in tiImk comments sections (Kinda typing this down with these ideas still on my mind 😅) if someone did pls let me know.

Continuing on~ This is in regards of Savage and Rumble (+the secret 3rd clone from the prototype set named "Thunder" by some fans; if ya want to include em), so in cannon they either don't exist(only in lego sets) or they haven't been introduced yet HOWEVER even though we don't know if your gonna add them or not- what if they like watch over Aschy whenever he goes out and they just chill in his shadow keeping an eye on him and only stepping in when something Aschy can't handle happens (which is like highly rare or non-existent but it puts them at ease or something knowing he can handle himself) and Baby Aschy playing with them while their in the shadows. And the only time they watch over him is when everyone(the crew) are super busy randomly which is even rarer. What would their dynamic be like for you?

Oof that was a long but worth it haha. Hope you have a good day/night and good luck with college! ⊂⁠(⁠・⁠▽⁠・⁠⊂⁠)

Apologies for responding late. I finally landed in America this morning and am ready to enjoy my summer break and write like my life depends on it. x)!!

I am loving this prompt, I have so many ideas sprouting now! Love your thoughts too <33

1. What if Ascharya can see ghosts/spirits as a side effect of Macaque being revived from the dead?

First, Ascharya isn’t exactly human either and is very much like his dad— kind of an anomaly or a special case. So, this could be seen as a canonical sense of the story 😉 He wouldn’t be exactly spooked at the sights of these ghosts and converse with them privately, so he doesn't look like a maniac who talks to a wall. In a clear sense, Ascharya was exposed to much more startling things at the beginning of his life and has grown used to a lot of things. Though it is not trauma he has experienced. He was simply born with a different mindset since day one and views things differently, unhinged is a better word for that.

Peenut, my editor, says he is more psychopathic than unhinged, but I beg to differ. Ascharya is capable of feeling love and very human emotions, he is an everyday normal kid who definitely isn’t planning your ultimate demise if you tick him or his friends off on purpose! 🫢

A little note I want to add to this prompt is that, as some may know, Macaque isn’t exactly someone who would profess and rant all of his problems to his child. More precisely, he rarely tells Ascharya how he feels about Wukong specifically. Ascharya learns the majority of Macaque’s mental responses by observing him and by also speaking with the ghosts of Flower Fruit Mountain… let’s just say Macaque and Wukong are not spared the benefit of the doubt in those stories😅

2. Anywho: Rumble, Savage, and Thunder. Aaaa, just know I have them in mind for the story (even if they exist solely for the Lego sets), so stay tuned~

In regards of these three shadow monkeys watching over Ascharya, they definitely would watch over him and step in if something happens, you’re correct on this!! You’re also right that their interference would be rare because Ascharya can handle himself, he’s very capable of handling his ground, and we will be getting into that side of his more on the next chapter >:3c The thought of the three playing with Baby Ascharya is such a heartwarming picture to imagine. Even watching over him when the crew was busy with their things is something I also agree with. I shall say that these cute moments have happened! *Bangs gavel*

Now for their dynamics! Their dynamic would be just three shadow monkeys freaking out over a daredevil of a baby during Ascharya’s infant and toddler days. They would be more used to Ascharya’s antics when he’s older, of course. Rumble would be on meal prep and feeding duty, Savage would be on changing and outfit duty, and Thunder would be on toy and guard duty most of the time (he’s physically the strongest out of all three🤭)

The heart attacks these cuties would experience will be an everyday experience. Ascharya likes to crawl and climb a lot as an infant, making him appear to be above high places or underground a lot… It’s either them scrambling to catch the baby in case he falls, or they need to prevent the kid from getting kidnapped by low-level bad guys. Ascharya would either bite those guys, definitely biting through the skin and muscles like a hungry baby lion (not surprising he learned that from Nezha when he was an infant.) Even with kidnapping attempts becoming successful, the trio would find the baby being surrounded by the men, beaten to death, and Macaque glaring at the three clones with Ascharya sleeping soundly in his bloody arms. There would be no need to worry because Macaque always keeps an eye on his kid and knows when something is wrong the second it happens 😭

Phew! I added wayy more than I should've but I adored these prompts! They always have me giggling and excited to write more. Thank you so much for this ask, and thank you for your sweet wishes. Have a wonderful rest of your day!🫶💜
