  2. Summary

    A collection of (mostly) unconnected one-shots based around this non-canon deleted scene from Superman: American Alien.

    In essence, the idea is that Kryptonians in their natural form are non-humanoid and "deeply alien." However, Clark's DNA was forcibly rewritten during his journey to Earth, making him appear human -- that way he could "belong."

    Summary

    No one had touched Bart Allen until he was twelve years old. Well- that wasn’t quite true. His mother had touched him, surely, and it made sense that the Dominators had since they had kidnapped him. The lab technicians had definitely touched him in the process of hooking him into the machines. But that was so long ago, and he couldn’t remember any of it. Maybe none of it was even real.

    The first few moments of Bart’s rebirth were cold. The wires dropped from his head, un-inserting themselves like limp spaghetti noodles. The blinding white of the Earthgov lab blared suddenly across his vision, replacing the green countryside he’d been in just seconds before. Bart had crumpled, a marionette without his strings, curling in on himself on the floor of the tank.

    Or: an exploration of one Bartholomew Allen during Impulse 1995.

    Summary

    It was one of those concrete facts of life, the sort of thing you forget about because you’ve lived with it your whole existence and didn’t know anything different. Gravity was trying to pull you to the center of the earth, sweet things tasted good but made your teeth fall out and your body rebel against you, and Dipper could see dead people.

    *** *** ***

    Dipper Pines has long resigned himself to a life of fear and anxiety, waiting for the next horrific ghost around the corner, a beast only he could see. But the ghosts in Gravity Falls are different from the ghosts back home, in more way than he could have ever imagined.

    And there's a ghost with secrets he never expected just waiting to be discovered in the shack.
