For the four headcanons meme: Alex Danvers.

musetotheworld:

I got so many of these that my answers are gonna be a little spread out, but here we go!

A- realistic: Alex only stayed in highschool her senior year for Kara. She took every AP and college credit course the school offered, and a few more they didn’t. That was the start of a major focus on her schooling and need to excel that led to the complete burnout a few years later- the one that led to her joining the DEO and finally finishing her degree.

B- unrealistic but hilarious: after calling dibs on her alien gun Alex spent weeks trying to replicate the design (and also adapt it into a rifle version for greater use in the field). Her attempts only stopped when she caused a chemical fire in the DEO labs that required a complete evacuation of three levels. J’onn was a very grumpy space dad for a week, and Maggie banished her to the couch until her hair grew back.

C- heart crushing: Alex hates the color orange now. It used to remind her of watching sunsets with Jeremiah but now it reminds her of Krypton’s sky and the night she nearly lost Kara. The night she took the life of Kara’s last real link to Krypton, the last person she loved that lived under that orange sky. And even though Alex remembers, she can’t share her memories with Kara, not without wanting to throw up.

D- unrealistic but I’ll fight canon on it: Alex wants kids, but she’s utterly terrified of actually having one. What if she’s just like her mother? What if she’s seen too much in the field and can’t be the parent her kid needs? What happens if she’s too hurt to hold a baby? (This one is only unrealistic bc the writers bungled the wanting kids storyline tbh)
