Summary
When Krypton died, around forty-two Earth years ago, the plan was to send Kara and Kal-El away to safety. Kara would take care of her baby cousin on Earth and raise him to the best of her ability under Krypton’s Girod. They would be the last daughter and son of their kind and carry on their legacy.
It was a good plan. A thoroughly thought plan.
It was also a plan that failed (almost) miserably.
While Kal-El’s pod left safely in the nick of time, Kara’s never did. The remaining members of the Great House of El watched as the pod carrying the toddler took off just before everything started crumbling around them.
Now, forty-two years later, Superman was doing a good job as Earth’s Champion. He had some help, granted, but Lex’s relentlessness with his latest obsession: killing his sister, was starting to become a real problem.
If they wanted to save Lena’s life, they would have to get creative, because it was clear that there was no place on Earth safe for her anymore.

Summary
Lena realized, with mounting horror, that it wasn't Lex's portal watch; she'd had that in her pocket. That was-
Mercy's lackey flipped the cover open, and just as Lena blurted out a sharp "Don't," he pushed the button.
"You idiot," Lena choked out. "That's my signal watch."
"Signal watch?" said the Child of Liberty.
"Signal watch?" said Mercy. "Signal watch! You idiot," She rounded on the others. "We need to leave, now. Get Luthor and-"
Somewhere in the distance, there was a crash of shattering concrete and a series of harsh bursts of automatic gunfire. Mercy tensed, taking a step from the door as the sounds grew closer. Cracking concrete. Rending metal. Screaming.
"You have no idea what you've done," Lena choked out.
"What do you mean?"
"The Kryptonite in your chest," said Lena. "It's red."***
After Lena betrays Kara and abandons her at the Fortress of Solitude, Kara is again exposed to radiation from Red Kryptonite, unleashing her darkest thoughts and impulses. Will Kara and Lena burn the world together, or rise from the ashes?

Summary
Lena had been alive for far too long to let something like a pretty smile sway her. She had built business empires, and had raised an entire race out of the shadows and into modern society. She had children older than the constitution, and enough money to buy National City ten times over.
But she had never felt her heart beat for anyone outside of her coven before. At least not until Kara Danvers walked into her office and changed her life.
Now all Lena has to deal with is a traitorous child, a murderous Luthor, and the weird flutter Kara causes in her stomach.

Summary
"Roller derby?” Julia asks for the third time in a matter of forty seconds, like she still needs clarification.
“Yes,” Sam replies, nodding, the flyer still sitting on the coffee table between them, girls in skates, fishnets, and helmets plastered all over it.
“Us?” The pitch of Julia’s voice raises higher than Sam has ever heard it. It doesn’t discourage her.
She folds her arms in front of her chest and stares down at her friend, who’s still looking at her like she’s just grown a second head. “Yes, us.”

a roller derby au but they don’t actually play that much roller derby and there's a surprising amount of angst

Summary
“Who the fuck are you?”
“Right,” the blonde woman coughs, “I, um - I am Santa.”
“Santa isn’t real,” Lena squints, holding her sabre out in front of her, almost automatically slipping into her en garde pose, “try again.”
“I swear,” Santa holds her hands defensively, “I just wanted to bring you some Christmas cheer this year and um, I was going to just pop in and out and leave you a Christmas present under your tree, but then I couldn’t help but notice you don’t have a tree, so um, I was trying to find a good spot and then you showed up.”
“How did you bypass my alarm?”
The blonde grimaces. “Your alarm?”
“My state-of-the-art alarm right outside the elevator,” Lena frowns, “I designed it myself, there’s pressure pads, there’s lasers - nobody has ever made it past it. I didn’t even get an alert; how did you bypass it?”
“I came through the chimney.” The blonde smiles.
Lena sighs. “There is no chimney,” she clenches her jaw, her patience running thin, “I will ask you one more time, Santa.”
OR
Kara Danvers is Santa. Lena Luthor doesn't believe in Santa and hates Christmas with a passion. It's chaos.

Summary
Lena looks up.
“The stars are stunning.” She says.
Kara turns her head. “So are you.”
Lena freezes - barely, but enough. A slight shift in posture, the almost-invisible tension of someone deciding whether to absorb or deflect.
Kara smirks.
“Oh my god,” she says. “Luthor, are you blushing?”
Lena turns sharply, but she’s not quick enough to hide the flush in her cheeks. “It’s the cold.”
“Sure.”
“I’m not blushing.”
“You’re emotionally photosensitive.”
“Danvers.”
OR
Kara returns to Midvale for a high school reunion, where she's bound to run into frenemy Lena Luthor. Everyone remembers how Lena used to give Kara hell as editor of student newspaper The Torch, which Kara dutifully wrote articles for. Kara mainly remembers Lena's jawline and precise hand movements and how her eyes shot daggers at anyone who defied her.

In the meantime, the Superfriends try to hold their own against a vengeful attacker, and Kara, Lena, and crew discover a deadly group of assassins.

Summary
The world is watching now.
The band has gone from dive bars to sold-out arenas, from late-night rehearsals to morning headlines. Every spotlight burns brighter—and every shadow deepens with it.Lena Luthor stands at the center of it all, equal parts brilliance and breaking point, turning her scars into songs and her chaos into art. Onstage, she’s invincible; off it, she’s still learning how to breathe without performance as armor.
Kara Danvers never meant to fall for a storm like this. Loving Lena means learning how to stay steady in the flood—balancing truth against loyalty, the personal against the public, and the kind of love that can’t survive in half-light forever.
Sam keeps the machine running, stitching their lives together backstage, trying to protect what’s left of their small, private world before fame devours it whole. Because the music is more than sound—it’s survival, redemption, confession, and escape, all set to a beat that might just destroy them if it stops.
This is what happens after the curtain rises: the ache between songs, the beauty in the ruin, the masterpiece they never meant to make.
Welcome to Masterpiece Theater.

Summary
Lena Luthor leaves National City with nothing but a letter, a shaking heartbeat, and the truth she can no longer outrun. Ireland calls to her—its cliffs, its stones, its old magic—pulling her back to the legacy her mother died to protect. In the ruins of her family’s land lies a caol-áit, a thin place where the veil weakens and the Otherworld remembers those with the right blood.
Kara Danvers is left behind with the note, the silence, and the confession Lena never heard—I love you whispered to a woman in a coma, too late, too fragile, and now unbearably unanswered. When strange energy signatures begin echoing across the globe—ancient, wild, and unmistakably tied to Lena—Kara refuses to let distance, magic, or fear take her away again.
But what calls Lena across the sea is older than science, older than Krypton, older than grief. And when a breach tears open between worlds, Kara follows it straight into the heart of Irish magic and the ruins that shaped Lena’s fate.
Some distances are measured in miles.
Some in heartbreak.
And some in the thin places where two worlds—and two hearts—touch.Series

Summary
Kara Danvers was supposed to write about a band—GlassHearts, an underground phenomenon cutting through the monotone of National City. It had been Nia’s idea at first, a filler piece meant to drag Kara out of the wreckage of her breakup. Alex came along because she was newly single too, & because misery, apparently, liked live music. They spent half the night trying to find Nia somewhere between the sticky floors & the endless crush of the crowd.
They found Samantha Arias instead.
Between drinks & name drops, she mentioned a musician with a classical past & a gift that didn’t belong on a stage this small.
GlassHearts had two front people: Jimmy Olsen—& a woman who could command a crowd without saying a word.
Lena Luthor: a prodigy shaped by impossible expectations, better known for her family name. But the more Kara learned, the more the lines blurred—between music & confession, between interviews & something that felt dangerously like connection.
What started as a story about a band became an unraveling of truth, fame, addiction, & the quiet gravity pulling two women toward each other.

Summary
Kara's eyes welled with relieved tears to see her standing there--to see her alive and well and so, so beautiful as if none of those horrible things had ever happened. As if she'd never hurt her. Never lied.
Lena seemed to sense that she was no longer alone in her office and she turned away from her window, her eyebrow lifting in genuine surprise.
"Was there something else, Miss Danvers?" Lena asked in a professional tone while she amended her stance to be closed off and suspicious.
Kara couldn't help but laugh--it was a reflex.
This was the moment, and she wasn't going to mess if up a second time.
Kara forced her face into an amiable expression and tried to soften her gaze as she approached Lena with her hand outstretched--offering everything. Everything that had never happened, and everything that could be.
"Actually, there is." Kara took a deep breath, pushing down her giddy nerves, and plastered on her biggest grin, "I wanted to tell you that beneath all this, I'm Supergirl. And I wanted to welcome you to National City."---
What if Kara could go back to a time where she had never lied to Lena?- Language:

Until...Lena gets a phone call from an unknown number.
It's Alex Danvers.
