Friday Fics Fix - Like A Whole Season Arc of Supergirl
'“Alex,” he said quickly, his voice strained. “I need you to overrule security protocol and allow me access to a cell in the basement-level holding facility. Please listen carefully, I require several apparatuses to ensure my escape is at its lowest likelihood-”'
Good Supergirl fics are like buses (which ironically do feature in this fic) - you wait what feels like forever for one to come along, and then two come along at once!
OK, you might remember a couple of weeks ago I recommended a Supergirl fic.
...And I'm here to do it again.
...From the same fic author.
They deserve it, OK?! 😅 They're good fics!

Friday Fics Fix - A Hero Descended From Villains
'...they’d known that something was wrong, just as much as they’d known that they couldn’t let Brainy out of their sight.'
Supergirl is one of the CW Arrowverse shows.
Like most of these shows, Supergirl is a cancelled series.
Which makes me sad. But we have fanfiction! Woo! (Lol.)

Friday Fics Fix - This Is Legends
'An alarm was blaring, and once Nate came to his senses he realized he was standing outside a bank, holding a sack full of money.'
I'm still mourning for my beloved Legends of Tomorrow (LoT) after it's beautiful batsh**tery was cancelled a mere few weeks ago
*Swoons on ye olde timey fainting couch*
(...I have no idea where that came from - let's just keep moving... 😅)

Friday Fics Fix - 100% A Thing That John Constantine Would Do
'B-Eazy: do we tell her

Ava Sharpe: This entire team is an invasion of privacy.'
I had a lot of Legends of Tomorrow (LoT) feelings this week...
...because it was CANCELLED! Argh!
I love this show. I'ma miss it so much - it's one of my faves dammit!!!! ðŸ˜

Friday Fics Fix - Magical-Shenanigans-Related Food Poisoning
'John’s gotten sick in plenty of bars, but he’s almost sure that this is the first time alcohol hasn’t been involved.'
Ah, John Constantine.
A moody, broody, British Bisexual warlock and master of the occult, who's a character in my beloved Arrowverse show Legends of Tomorrow? And is played by a Welsh actor (Matt Ryan)?
Yeah, if you know me at all, you know that I had zero chance to resist.
