FIC: "The Astounding Adventures of the Brothers El on Sol-3!" (SV, 1/1, Reunion universe)

[ljs_lj]

PG-13 for violence. Spoilers for “Relic”, “Rosetta”; this story takes place before “The Kindness of Strangers” and is intended as part of the Reunion’verse, but is understandable as a standalone as long as you know that Jor-El had a brother named Zor-El (who is Supergirl’s dad, years later, FYI). Please forgive any pop culture anachronisms: this is

I don't watch Supernatural, but I loved this anyway. The banter between Jor-El and Zor-El..er, I mean Joe and Zeke was delightful! And Swannie. *swoons with affection* Made of awesome!

Thanks! Supernatural was thankfully only the *inspiration* for this story - from the first word, it was fully intended as a Reunion-verse story. The Swannie bit was not part of the original outline, but once it popped into my head, I knew it was the right way to go! Thanks so much!

Poor Zeke, he gets the bad end of everything doesn't he ;)

Absolutely adored the part with litte Swannie. How inspired.

He's the little brother, so of course he does - it's a universal constant! *thinks of own younger brothers* Clark just thinks he wants a younger sibling - Pete never swayed him of this idea, but maybe Jor-El can talk some sense into him *eg* Exchange (or whatever it will be called) will give him a little insight into the reality of having an annoying younger brother or sister. (Though without Martha or Lara getting pregnant - I'll spoil you that much so you don't have a Jonathan Kent (TM) heart attack.)

"Inspired" is the right word - this was always going to be Jor-El-having-a-dream, but where he woke up and with whom is a gift of the muse the day I finally finished the story :)

Thanks so much for reading!
