'It was a long distance between knowing that all reds equals bad, and what the information actually said. Alex shook her head and started shouting commands, and Nia felt her heart lodge in her throat. '

 

I love Brainiac 5 and Dreamer. They belong together dammit!

In case you have no idea who I'm talking about - 

In CW's Supergirl TV show, Brainiac 5, aka Brainy, aka Querl Dox, is a cyborg alien from the future, 

...and Dreamer, aka Nia Nal, is the Transgender daughter of a human and an alien who can harnass the power of dream energy to see the future (and also smack people with the dream energy, which is handy.)

So, Brainy and Nia have a kind of will-they-won't-they, on-again-off-again, thing going on.

And they totally belong together.

I've decided. (Lol.)

This week's fic is about Brainy being trapped in his mind-palace/mind-scape-type-thing* and Nia having to go in and get him.

(Since mindscapes are 'a thing' in Supergirl, and Nia can literally faff into people's dreams. It's got 'fandom' written, metaphorically, all over it!)

*I'm so articulate - lol!

This was clearly based on when Brainy's alien form was blue - he's green now.

So some of the details that have been speculated on by the fic author may have been made irrelevant by the more recent episodes.

Just assume it's an AU, and you'll be fine.

(Fangirling notes: AU = Alternate Universe.)

A few brief content warnings, dearest nerdlets:

- poisoning/medical emergency/coma

- childhood trauma

- horror elements inc. body horror

I hope this one will get a sequel 'cos it also ends on something of a cliffhanger!

(So, people who don't like cliffhangers: this is your warning! Lol.)

This week's fic, then, is:

MindScape by Mageless

I feel like my mindscape wouldn't be too great 😅

Have you ever wondered what your mindscape would be like?

Have you wondered what it would be like to enter other people's?
