do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa? by strryeyedlvr

Summary
“Carmilla,” a voice interrupts her task and Sabine tries not to jump, turning around to see who has darkened her door. This must be the literature professor Marjorie mentioned—Hati. She didn’t give a first name. Professor Hati has short blonde hair cropped to her chin. It’s curled at the ends, loose like she didn’t care to spray them this morning. A cigarette hangs from her lips, half-gone. Her eyes are on one of the books on Sabine’s bed—Carmilla. Her eyes flit up to meet Sabine’s. “Most people go for Dracula.”
Sabine grabs the book fiercely, shelving it with the rest. “I’m not most people.”
In 1953, Sabine Wren accepts a position teaching art history at Wellesley College. When she accepted the job, she intended to make a difference in the way young women are taught. She just never expected herself to be changed in the process. She never planned on falling in love.

Summary
She takes off towards the mouth of the alleyway, ready to find a cantina and get a drink all by herself—maybe pick someone up while she’s at it, Ahsoka won’t be back around to get her for at least another rotation and she’s already completed her mission so she may as well have some fun on this wasteland. Little time passes before Sabine hears a huff behind her, paired with footsteps.
Or, a chance encounter leads to a run-in with Shin Hati. Which turns into a fight, a drink, and something a little more than what they bargained for.

Two Padawans Walk Into A Cave... by Tamoline for Netgirl_y2k

Summary
“It seemed like a good idea at the time,” Sabine says.
Shin grunts. “You’re not the one whose leg is trapped by fallen rubble.”
“You were trying to kill me at the time,” Sabine points out. “So I’m still somewhat inclined to think of it as a good idea. Or would be if…” She gestures at their surroundings lit only by the harsh orange actinic glare from Shin’s lightsaber lying on the rocky floor.
“You weren’t also trapped in the cave by the avalanche you triggered,” Shin finishes sourly.
“Yeah,” Sabine agrees, a little smugly if she’s forced to be honest with herself. “That.”

Fate had a funny sense of humor.
Or Shin was just legitimately unhinged. Which, again, Sabine wasn’t ruling out just yet.
or, an enemies to lovers soulmate au in which Shin and Sabine are incapable of inflicting physical harm on one another, which definitely isn't frustrating for either of them.

Summary
Ahsoka had brought her to Shatterdome once her body had healed, a long two years of rehab and recovery, and she had pushed herself through simulations and copilot candidates until she had been deemed unsuitable for a return to active duty, too locked into the grief of her lost copilot to let anyone else into the drift with her. Grounded. Useless.
One look at Shin Hati, freshly arrived in Shatterdome to be matched to a new copilot after her uncle and copilot had ascended to a leadership role alongside Ahsoka, with her pale hair and pale skin and pale eyes, angular and striking and unwavering, and Sabine's carefully-constructed equilibrium ruptures into seething, scalding hatred.

Summary
Lena lets out a careful breath and says, “James and I have decided to end our— association.”
What a perfectly weird and roundabout way to describe the end of a romantic relationship, Kara thinks. “Oh?” she says, aptly demonstrating her own comparative lack of eloquence.
It earns her one of Lena’s crinkly smiles at least, affection clear on her best friend’s face. “Should I feel offended that you don’t seem all that surprised?” she flusters.
“No,” Kara says, “I am,” and she is, is the thing, she's actually stunned, but she’s something else, much more than that.
She’s elated.
“Bummer,” Kara says.
-
In which Kara makes a tiny new enemy, Alex has an actual functioning gaydar, and Lena breaks up with James only to immediately start seeing someone else. And Kara is fine! Except for the part where she’s really, really not.

Summary
“Oh, no, you definitely don’t want to do that,” Kara said, picking up a paper cup and dumping a teabag in it.
The woman next to her looked up, surprise etched onto her pale, drawn face. “Excuse me?” she rasped.
Kara nodded at the coffee pot the woman had picked up and wrinkled her nose. “You’d get better coffee at the 7-Eleven across the street and that’s saying something. I’d stick with tea.”
“Oh. Oh … okay.”
“First time?” Kara asked, glancing sideways at the woman.
She was striking, her medium height made a fraction taller by her heels, the tailored cut of her clothes precise, her makeup perfect and her dark hair long and sleek. In her scrubs and denim jacket, bare-faced and dishevelled, Kara felt positively inadequate. And yet, there was the same hollowed out look to the newcomer's face, a sadness in her green eyes, a weary slump to her shoulders that was recognisable.
“Yes.”
Picking up a glazed donut, Kara took a bite and gave her a strained smile. “I’d say it’s good to have you here but … well, obviously not.”

Summary
“It’s a lot easier for me to keep my grip on you when I can actually feel your body.”
The phrase feel your body said in Kara’s voice rattles around in Lena’s head like a pinball machine, but she manages to shrug her sweater off and throw it somewhere behind them before she can second-guess herself. Kara is looking comfortable in a loose white t-shirt, and when she takes Lena by the waist and puts Lena’s hand on her shoulder the texture of it is light and soft.
“Let’s start from square one,” Kara says, so kindly that her next words take a few seconds to register in Lena’s brain. She tightens her grip on Lena’s waist, and says with full confidence:
“Dancing is a lot like sex.”
OR
Against her better judgement Lena agrees to compete on Dancing with the Stars for the PR boost. When her chemistry with her partner Kara gets misconstrued by the press, there’s obviously only one solution.
AKA, a Dancing with the Stars/Fake Dating AU.

Summary
How do you explain a thousand years of history to someone who slept through them? Children that they never met but who loved them as their mother; journeys around the world and into space then back again; conversations held between you even though they haven't spoken a word in a millennium...
How do you tell someone that your heart still beats because theirs does; that you bound yourself to their very life force forever? How do you tell someone you did it because you loved them, and that you still do, even after a thousand years...
Lena wants to know, because Kara is about to wake up and she's going to think it's still 2023.

Summary
The woman stops her pacing, setting her pale and unevenly-coloured eyes on Kara, and in that moment Kara understands - for the very first time - how Helen of Troy’s face could have been beautiful enough to start a war.
“Enough. I’m tired of being passed from one person to the next. Tell me,” the woman says fiercely after Kara has been quiet for too long. “Who are you?”
“I’m, um,” Kara says, wiggling her feet until they’re buried in the sand up to the ankle. “I’m Kara.”
The woman stares at Kara, incredulous and silent. It stretches out between them, those lingering questions and Kara’s unwillingness to answer them, until finally her shoulders sink and she deflates with a small, disbelieving laugh.
“Right. Well, I’m Lena,” she says, finally seeming to realize her dress is torn and pulling it tighter, "and if you don’t mean me harm, then I suppose you just saved me.”
OR
Kara’s pod crash happens in 6th century Greece, and she grows up eager to be like the heroes whose myths comforted her in the wake of Krypton’s destruction. But when she accidentally reveals her powers and the world views her as a demigod, Kara begins to understand just how dangerous that can be.
