Ooh, Kal-El and Ollie on Krypton! Hmm, I'm no Superman expert but I can try to help. Since this is SV fic, as long as you don't contradict SV canon, I think you can pick and choose different elements of comics canon and develop a "customized" Krypton for your setting. Do you want Krypton to seem very alien? Do you want the Kryptonians to seem cold and hostile and unsympathetic, to emphasise an "us vs. them" mentality? Or are they just regular people, perhaps misguided, a technologically advanced race but with the same kind of family/friendship bonds we see in the Kents? I don't know if you've ever seen the Bruce Timm Superman cartoon, but I love his version of Jor-El and Lara. They're "my" House of El. (Which is why the Fortress on SV is so frustrating.)
