Forgive me for I have sinned.

I pressed the like button, when the number was already 69!

I'm a monster.

Evil incarnate.

The temptation to press it was too much, I tell you!

What have I done!?
 
The route to securing Addy as Minnie's shardite buddy? Swan Friend. Specifically, one worthy of the name Sephiroth. Because that delightful ringtone of Addy's MUST BE USED TO USHER IN THE DOOM OF ADMINISTRATOR'S ENEMIES!!!
 
That's the neat part. She hadn't. Everyone knows.
But they don't. In Administrative Mishap (and by extension the Supergirl show) most of the people who know where told by her personally and the biggest threat to her identity is her asociation with Addy rather than anything inherent to her own actions.

Look at it this way. If you meet someone at the grocery store who looks like a celebrity, is your first reaction "holy shit, it's Tony Hawk" or "huh, that guy looks a lot like Tony Hawk"?

This would go double for someone like Clark or Kara. Nobody expects a physical god to work as a journalist. Even if someone did ask them, it'd be defused immediately by something as simple as a chuckle and "I get that a lot."
 
There are very few people seeking to hunt down and kill Tony Hawk (as far as i am aware of).
Without genre convention, Clark and Kara would have no secret identity.
 
I liked how Minnie was trying to keep the doctor as an "it" rather than "she" but failing before finally giving up. Also, not knowing about supergirl, I didn't know that L.L. standing for Lilian Luther (Lena's evil mom) was a concern. Here's hoping the confused denial is enough to keep the secret of Lena's plans.

Minnie briefly hesitated. Minnie meant to provide Lena's gender; that would omit over fifty percent of possible suspects. Still, the mistake had been made.
"Minnie had not meant to provide", or perhaps something like "Minnie meant to omit... that would eliminate".
 
And given how adept Minnie had been in the workshop, Lena might be able to provide much of the requisite parental attention and support just through collaborative engineering projects.
The collaborative projects should be really interesting for the other parties.

"Do you have a sample of Kryptonite available for me to examine?" Minnie asked innocently. "Most research articles would cost money to view."
A Radiation absorbing friend?
 
The Speed Force is both very complicated and depressingly simple.
Go on?
Don't worry about it, the chapter was fine.

Child psychology applies surprisingly well to shards. They got her previous experiences and reasons for acting how she does correct. I guess QA really is just a traumatized child, a several million year old child. Poor QA, hopefully Lena is as good for her as Hestia was.
Regular lobotomies do wonders as far as preventing emotional maturity goes.

That's... not true.
Maxwell Lord knew; Cat Grant knew; Maggie figured it out almost instantly; everyone in Cadmus knows; everyone in Al's Dive Bar knows ('this blonde woman who looks suspiciously like Supergirl and hangs out with Administrator? Oh yeah, totally not a kryptonian').
Maybe a random person on the street wouldn't know that Kara is Supergirl, but almost anyone can easily find out her identity just by asking around.

You could have pressed the hug or funny buttons. There is no excuse for your crime.

But many people are hunting for his secret identity, Hawkman.
 
And the reactions should she say her favorite animal on Earth is Humans.
It would be a lie anyway. Humans can be very irrational and confusing.

Exaggerated or not, I feel obligated to share the relevant piece of art:

Please spoiler that. It would be helpful if you could, too, @Pethrai Darkos, but at least you were more vague about it.

...I'm going to need to put in more authorial notes asking people not to spoil AdMis, aren't I? (EDIT: Thanks!)

Theory: The actual reason for the whole "trigger event" thing is that successful connection requires the human to be in a mental state the shard can relate to.

...:(
 
The Speed Force is more accurately described as "the illusion of motion", but that really only works for the medium of Comics.
It can be as complicated as a several-paragraphs-long explanation or can be summed up as "they run So Fast".
Huh. Neat. Although, now that I think about it, Minnie would almost certainly rather get her hands on the Sage Force, if that exists yet.
 
You can consider that to be in the longer version of the document. Minnie wasn't asked why she brought that up, but it was noted. Important distinction, though: Minnie wasn't necessary interested in good survival strategies, just the directions that they'd developed in.
After all, what looks like a poor survival strategy now could just be a case of environmental alteration invalidating a previously sound one. Or you know, it is a poor one but in another area it would work great. Alternatively, it's a better survival strategy than others so long as you ensure to protect against the critical weakness it has as well. Lots of possibilities.

And even if it's an unsound one now, further refinement of it may turn up something surprisingly useful.
 
Unfortunatetly fitting one environment well doesnt help if someone decides to burn down your environment to flush out game and clear land for farms.
 
Admittedly, the potential reward spying upon Lena was far greater
reward for spying
More importantly, the way in which they were wrong indicated both a slightly different method of verifying shard identity, and that they were not the same Queen Administrator.
Interesting that she's already reached that conclusion. Too bad she was asleep and didn't share with Addy.
If entirely different multiverse clusters had somehow managed to produce their own versions of Queen Administrator, then that further reinforced their shared status as an objectively superior existence.
I'm sure the inhabitants of both dimensions also have to poop. No, this is an entirely random observation with no connection to the prior subject. :rofl:
"One adequately armed Friend smaller than I am," Minnie eventually bargained.
[TWO DAYS LATER]
"Ugh. You're going to need to remove most of these. I have no idea why it needs a breaching charge. Now, what's this thing called 'Sting'?"

I also have another one:
"Where the hell have you been that a tactical nuke is 'adequately armed'?!"
The redirected attacks may kill, but that is the fault of whomever shot at us.
Right up until she puts an Entity-tier aimbot on it.

Perhaps she'll end up taking alt-Taylor's moniker of God-Empress Papercut sooner than later.
I've heard alien brains can be a lot different from ours, so something keeping humans from thinking about her might not work on one of them.
Well, I think we've proven the secret Kryptonian mind control power instead.
Minnie did not enjoy the proximity to numerous disease-carrying organisms—which was to say, young non-host humans.
...Has someone been secretly observing me?
Minnie may benefit from an emotional support animal.
They're going to regret that recommendation sooner than later.
If there was a bright side, it was that Minnie truly was fully human after all and physically healthy. Lena had been rather worried. She wouldn't have been upset if Minnie was an alien, exactly, but it would certainly have made both their lives harder.
Wow, those misunderstandings are hitting with a vengeance this time around.
Or perhaps the Kryptonian thing isn't actually them after all and there's some really weird cognitive bias in all the humans who live there
"Do you have a sample of Kryptonite available for me to examine?" Minnie asked innocently. "Most research articles would cost money to view."
I suspect a very awkward conversation is about to ensue.

Lena's warm glow vanished like an extinguished candle.

Hmmm... why does this upset Lena, my running theory is that she more upset with her families reputation then anything else since even the 'baby' is trying to prove her worth with anti-'Super' technology.
