─ ⋅ Sir, this is a Wendy’s… | Krypton Survives Au ⋅ ─
Summary; Clark looks for his mate… while Lex tries to stay calm on his campaign trail… | Soulmates au, plus royal house of El au (Prince Kal-El)
-- -- -- --
⋅ ─ One shot; Sir, this is a Gala… / Sir, this is a Wendy’s…
Soulmate Au context; Kryptonians can see a type faint of glow around their ‘mates’ (obviously humans can’t see it unless under certain lenses) | Also, lex is on his first run for president having just turned thirty-five. (The minimum age to campaign in America).
Author’s note; I am not American so forgive me if anything is wrong. I also hate politics so much, and I am (in my own way) more of a socialist. However, I do, do sociology and am trying lol

Kal-El had begun his search around five years ago, all of krypton had turned up to try and see if they were the mate of Kal-El, prince of Krypton, heir to the throne, son of Jor-El. However, after all that time, they found that Kal’s mate wasn’t on krypton…
After a long search, his cousin Kara Zor-El had found her mate on a foreign planet… Earth. He realised maybe, just maybe; the hope wasn’t all gone! He began his new search, maybe he’d find his mate on earth the way Kara had done so.
Kara, and Jimmy had hit it off instantly, the man was enamoured by the kryptonian, and she was so excited to finally have a mate, and to be learning all about earths culture. Kal had travelled to visit Kara during her time on earth, and accompanied both Jimmy, and Kara along with one of Jimmy’s friends, Lois, to a ‘gala’ that the journalists were invited to.
“Sorry, who is the host of this… em, Gala” Kara asks, still trying to grasp pronunciation of the word ‘gala’.
“Lex Luthor, he’s a business man here in the US, and is one of the most powerful men in the world, he is currently running for president of the US, and probably will be promoting that here”
“Ah, you vote for your leaders?” Kal asked, intrigued by the notion, as he’d always been promised the crown, deciding that he’d try to strike up a conversation with this… Luthor.
“Yeah, the US is a democracy, most countries are. England has both a Monarchy, and democratic government… although the Royals are more for show”
“Ah, interesting” Kal was more intrigued by the moment, he wanted to learn about earths customs and this was probably the best way to - learn from those creating the customs, perfect!
As soon was Lex Luthor coming out, Kal swooned. He didn’t even realise the glow around the man, as he was just hit in the face with how beautiful this man was… bright blue eyes covered by softly curled lashes as he looked up at Kal through them.
“Hello, Kal-El right? You are the kryptonian Prince I was told about, right?” his eyes narrowed slightly with a slight flirtatious glint in his eyes as he leaned ever so slightly closer to the man.
“Ah, yes” and then it hit him… the glow - “You” he stumbles over his words, “You’re my mate” he finally says.
“I- what?” Lex chuckles, furrowing his brows in confusion as he folds his arms, smiling.
“Ah sorry! Kryptonians have the ability to see a certain glow-type presence” he tries to explain, “it’s like a… it’s a soulmate sort of thing” he says, “I can explain better later, but I would love to get to know you more, you are my destined partner, and I just want to know you more before anything else” he smiles, so earnestly before adding, “It is custom to marry, however as you aren’t apart of that culture I do not want to… pressure you.”
“Oh, I would love to see the science behind that” Lex smiled, very intrigued by the sciences,
“Well, I am a trained scientist - I was taught by my father, who has been labelled as the entire planets greatest scientist”
“Why, I see I have something in common with him already”
“perfect”
The two continue to talk, flirting, and just generally bantering… Kal was practically vibrating the whole time, he’d found his mate, finally. He was double as excited when Lex invited him back to his penthouse to ‘see the scientific notes’.
The two ended up in bed almost instantaneously after getting into the penthouse… Lex went to sleep that night barley awake as Kal cleaned up. He could see stars about half way through with the kryptonian, he was so overstimulated, but by God, he was happy. That felt amazing, maybe Kal was his soulmate-
Not only the amazing sex, the kryptonian also made sure he was cared for. The man carried him over to the hot bath he’d run, bathing him and generally caring for the man…
“Why are you” he mutters into Kal’s chest as he cuddles up to the man, while Kal was peppering the man’s head with kisses,
“You are my mate, I am enamoured by how smart you are, and Rao you are stunning,”
“Hm, you’re strange Kal-El, I like you…”
“I am incredibly proud to have you as my mate, you are so stunning, I love you,”
“Luv” Lex mumbles, “that’s silly” he chuckles falling into a soft sleep, as Kal begins to memorise the man’s heartbeat…
His mate…

─ ⋅ A BABY?! OUR BABY?! | Krypton Survives au ⋅ ─
Summary; Jor-El gifts Lex and Clark a baby for ‘good luck’ on the election run… | Lex short-circuits and Clark goes mush with ‘baby brain’…
-- -- -- --
⋅ ─ One shot; A baby?! Our baby?!
Small context; this is like 18 months after the first chapter (Kryptonians tend to have children in the first two years - yes, I am making shit up, sue me) - they officially got together after 2 months
Also; New-52 has made it so Conner’s name in kryptonian (Kon-El) means ‘abomination’ - however I have changed that… in this au it means ‘Courage to El’ (as in the house of El - as a last name).
-- -- -- --
Jor-El was very excited to gift his son, and (future) son-in-law the new baby he’d created. Kryptonians when in queer (as humans put it) relationships tend to gene splice, and artificially create babies.
Jor-El decided to take a trip to earth, to meet his son with his partner Lex, delivering the cute baby whom he had gotten Kara to take the DNA for... (aka she tricked them into DNA testing to see their ancestry, because that’s fun!).
“Ah, my father is coming” Kal just randomly comes out with as he and Lex sit cuddled on the sofa of Lex’s penthouse after Kal made him stop working on his campaign as he was overworking himself…
“Oh, has he called you?” Lex mumbled, clearly incredibly tired as he wraps his arms around Kal’s waist loosely as he lazily watches the movie.
“No, I hear his heartbeat… it’s at about… mercury I think, he’s probably stopping there to rest, maybe sun bathe” Kal says completely unfazed, forgetting humans can’t just, hear heartbeats.
Lex chuckles, “Ah, I forgot” he says, eye’s drooping ever so slightly as Kal just plants a soft kiss to the top of his head.
“I love you” is mumbled as Lex drifts off completely, unable to even finish the movie, which Kal instinctively turns down the volume of, continuing to hold onto his lover as the movie draws closer to the end.
“Love you too”
Jor-El arrives the day after, having stopped in Mercury as he knew there was a growing community of Kryptonians using it as a holiday destination since it is so close to the sun (it’s the kryptonian Ibiza, trust). He arrives in metropolis quite quickly, with many people creating a spectacle of the royals of Krypton visiting Lex Luthor, adding to the dating rumours between Lex and Kal-El. (They aren’t going to announce it until later in the year).
Jor-El knocked on the sliding door of Lex’s penthouse, he gently taps as he is luckily now accustomed to the yellow sun after being on Mercury. Kal came over, inviting him in with a bright smile, before looking down with furrowed brows at the baby,
“I have a brother?”
“No, you, Kal-El, have a son”
Clark completely short-circuits as he looks down at the baby, “Baby… my baby?!”
“Yes, I have thought of some kryptonian names, however it is ultimately your choice, there is also the fact he needs a human name”
“Hm, is this why Kara wanted us to do swabs?”
“Maybe, but that is beside the point, I have brought the child as a gift, a good luck charm if you will, as I am aware your mate is running for a leadership role”
“Yes, he is, I am so glad to have such an amazing mate” he smiles, just then Lex comes out to the open plan space after his shower, in a cosy cashmere jumper, “Ah, my love, hello. My father has brought us a gift”
“That is a baby”
“Yes” Kal says,
“a baby” Lex just repeats,
“Yes” he smiles,
“What’s their name?”
“Well, we were just talking about how he would need a kryptonian, and human name”
“Right…”
| a few hours later |
A few hours after explanation from Jor-El, Lex is trying to rap his head around what is going on…
The group name the new baby ‘Kon-El’ meaning ‘courage to El’ and Conner, due to its derivatives from the Irish word for ‘Justice’ and so, they have Conner. A baby. Their baby. Babbling up at them with wide eyes, and adorable smiles as they pepper kisses onto the boy’s forehead lovingly.
