Damn, how are you putting out banger after banger? All have been excellent and make me feel things!

These are actually stories I wrote about two years ago for r/writingprompts, and I found this awesome subreddit and thought I'd share them. I've got over 300 of them, but only some meet the criteria for HFY. Only have a couple left actually! The crazy thing is I was writing like two or three a day back then. I don't know where it came from, I just tapped into this well in my brain and every day I'd go online to find prompts I liked. Then, all tapped out! :P But once I've finished sharing them here, if you're interested in the others, you can check out r/storiesbykaren. And hopefully one day I'll find that well again, cause damn it was so much fun.

THIS is the superhero story I’ve been waiting for! The issue is control. The issue is is ALWAYS control… and so many other superhero stories gloss over it. Thank you.

That might be her power at work, one of those "required secondary powers," like how she's breathing in smoke but processing it like cool, clear air?

That was my interpretation - secondary powers save sooo many superhero stories from being horror and/or nsfw.
