Why this must be read:

Kon is pretty much my favorite character in the DCU, and thus this month I'm making it my personal mission to make each and every one of you fall in love with him. And if you don't fall in love with him after reading this fic, you disturb me.

This was written for the Jingle Bells, Batman Smells Yuletide challenge. It's Kon's first Christmas as Conner Kent, official member of the Kent extended family, and he's still adjusting to having an actual family, and still freaking out about half of his genes belonging to Lex Luthor. This Kon is sarcastic and vulnerable and horny and adorable, and every time I read it I find something new that makes me want to give him lots and lots of hugs. I also love the Tim in this fic: calculating and scarily capable and eerily competent, and also a teenage boy who just wants to make his best friend feel better.



Well, Kon has a Gameboy and he's pretty sure there's a box with an iPod in it and his name *on* it under the Christmas tree. His X-ray vision's still flickering and it's not exactly his fault if it decided to power up while he was in the living room. The Kents are totally going to have to lead-line his Broke Out Of Test Tube-day presents but Kon's not Clark, and Kon's flesh is weak.

Metaphorically speaking, of course.

Luthor's obviously the kind of person who'd take advantage and peek, so it might be Kon's evil genes starting to take over. They'd start small, like an invading army of bald midgets, and Kon will go from peeking at his presents to not flushing the toilet, to burning the pants off Mr. Kimbley the algebra teacher and in no time at all Kon's going to wake up and realise he's a murderous dictator with thinning hair.

Or maybe this is teenager-wrong and not evil-wrong, and Kon's just being a fucking idiot.
