queersintherain:

Hi all! So, I’m gearing up to start writing a fic I’ve been researching for two or three months now (things have gotten intense!) and I’m wondering if anyone with some knowledge of US/California law/how court cases work on a basic level would be interested in helping out answering some specific questions for me or pointing me in the right direction!

The fic is Kara x Cat x Alex, featuring demisexual Kara Danvers and asexual Alex Danvers, and is basically going to be a realistic exploration of trauma and kink in the superhero genre. Or as realistic as I can get it via a LOT of research (seriously, you should see my google search history these days).

The court case I’m trying to figure out involves the DEO/Supergirl suing Maxwell Lord for human alien trafficking, rape and sexual assault, and involves fun legal questions like how to get aliens considered persons under US law. (This is just for your info; most of my questions are pretty basic legal things!)

Reblogging just in case it’ll help anyone else see this! I am looking for super basic (US) legal advice from anyone with that kind of experience–just things I can’t quite figure out how to google. Fic info above is just in case anyone is interested. DM me if you know things about the law and wanna chat!
