    Summary

    “Okay. What’s your name?”

    Lena’s response is knee-jerk. “None of your damn business.”

    Supergirl runs her fingers through her hair. It sticks up wildly near her temple, and Lena can see a slight cowlick. It’s strangely humanizing. “Look, my boss isn’t going to like that I’m working with an unknown as it is. If we’re going to work together, I at least need something to call you.”

    When Lena shakes Supergirl’s hand, she feels the warmth of victory when the hero seems shocked at the firmness of her grip. But alarmingly an even stronger warmth radiates from their joined palms, spreading up her arm; Lena pulls her hand back faster than what’s generally considered polite, curling it into a fist.

    “You can call me Kieran.”

    OR

    For over a hundred years, Lena has been trying to escape the suffocating hierarchy of the fae – and ever since her mother moved LuthorCorp to National City the only way to do so is to work with Supergirl, with whom Lena shares a soul-deep connection she can’t control.

    What’s a vampire to do?

    Summary

    "The National City Lakehawks," Jack says. He flips the cover of the binder over. "Who is this?"

    “Kara Danvers,” Lena answers. It’s the only player she can name off the team at this point and that’s only because any sort of research into the Lakehawks seems to start and end with the same girl.

    OR

    The fic where Lena inherits the National City Lakehawks from her wayward brother and meets Kara Danvers, star player.

    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

    “Gideon,” replied Harrow, thoroughly bored of this interaction already and taking no pains to hide it. “There’s been a noise complaint about your social gathering, and as it is…” – she made a great show of checking the watch she didn’t own and therefore wasn’t wearing – “…ass and balls o’clock in the morning, I’m here to tell you to break it up and go to sleep like good little children.” She made sure to infuse ‘social gathering’ with the exact same tone of withering condescension she’d use to say, like, ‘debauched orgy’ or ‘World War II LARP session’ or ‘tea party with Ronald and Nancy Reagan.’

    Predictably, Gideon ignored her. Instead, she slouched even harder and more bonelessly against the doorframe and held her hand to her face in an upsettingly decent imitation of the thinking emoji. “Ortus again?” she asked eventually, her tone carefully pruned of all discernible emotion.

    “I take my role as senior resident of these halls of accommodation very seriously, as you well know, and it is my duty to investigate all complaints promptly and vigorously while protecting the anonymity of the complainant,” said Harrow officiously. “But yes, it was Ortus, because he is a big girl’s blouse.”

    Summary

    Harrow tugged the business card from its clip and flipped it around. Something about it made an instant swooping sensation in her stomach.

    The card featured a red-haired woman with an undercut. A heavy tool was slung over her shoulder like it weighed nothing. Her white, cuffed shirt was streaked with dirt, evidence of hard labor, and the flex of her more-than-impressive bicep was impossible to ignore. The photo cut off just below her waist, but not before revealing a glimpse of well-worn, high-waisted work pants.

    Dark, stretched suspenders clung to her shoulders, keeping her shirt tucked in place. Her face was scrunched slightly on one side, a knowing wink aimed at the camera.

    "Baby I deliver. I get the job done!
    Call me for whatever you need around the house."

    Harrow scoffed with the card in her hand, gripping it a little too tight. How presumptuous. How inappropriate. How infuriating.

    Or, Harrow has a mid-life crisis and move to the countryside. Little does she know, the local handywoman is an absolute babe. It makes her life hard.

    Summary

    With a very calculated and deliberate gesture, Harrow threw her finger forward and dug it between two of Gideon’s ribs. The taller woman’s jaw flew open and her body bent over on its own, to which she hugged herself without a sound, every inch of her too focused on the pain she was feeling to react in any other way.

    “Every second I spend in your company is a knife buried in my chest."

    Gideon looked up, eyes half closed in a grimace, to find Harrow’s face to be at the same height as hers now that she was folded in over herself, courtesy of those infernal sticks she called fingers.

    “Every second I am forced to converse with you ( - who the fuck talks like that, painfully interceded Gideon, dizzy with pain - ) I feel my IQ being slowly dragged down by your pathetic attempts at communication. Did you know? I actually kind of admire your ability to ignore the ancient purpose of words for information sharing, and instead use them to somehow worsen the preexisting silence. Yet my admiration is nowhere near grand enough for me to want to stand your company for even one second more than necessary.”

    Gideon found her breath again and shakily replied with a grunt. “Cool. I’ll see you at five then.”

    Summary

    Gideon left ten years ago and never looked back. Although, when she gets the offer of her life, she can't resist. The place makes her wanna womit and throw herself on a sword, but here she is.

    Harrow stayed and continued her life without Gideon. She studied hard and shoved her pain away even harder. She hasn't thought about the redhead for years. For real.

    Or,

    They are in their late twenties and are totally fine without each other, until they are not.

    Summary

    You had your body and I had mine, and it was a miracle. Your hands against my face were a miracle. The rest of your meat attached to your hands was a prayer answered and a promise broken, but we were flush and gasping and alive, and Harrow—I really thought you might’ve kissed me then.

    But I felt it happen. The way your breath suddenly stilled, and your body locked up beneath mine, remembering. How with splintering gentleness, you pushed me away.

    “I’m so sorry,” was the second thing you said upon waking.

    The first thing had been my name.

    Stranded in a safehouse on an Edenite moon, Gideon and Harrow try to put themselves back together.

    Summary

    “Gideon,” said Palamedes with the patience of a saint, “the rules are the rules. It wouldn’t be fair if I changed them just for you. In a well ordered society—

    “It’s not a well ordered society.” Gideon knew where that was going, and she certainly didn’t have the time. She slapped a slip of paper onto the counter and said, “It’s secret santa.”

    And there lay the source of all of her problems: handwritten in a script so neat and precise it could have been printed, Harrowhark Nonagesimus. And everyone knew that Gideon and Harrow hated each other.

    So what if they had started taking smoke breaks together? So what if Harrow had helped her fold shirts just last week, in a store she didn’t even work in? So what if Harrow had laughed as the two of them did Jagerbombs at Palamedes’ Halloween party, the glint of her fake fangs flashing invitingly in the orange party lights? They hated each other. The two of them would both work in the mall until one of them inevitably strangled the other with her bare hands, and Gideon wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Except that lately, Gideon had started to like Harrow.

    Which made that slip of paper a fucking problem.

    Summary

    “This is my roommate, Gideon. She has a filthy mouth, and she wears only as many clothes as is strictly necessary, but please know that she is very dear to me.”

    There was a joke in there that Gideon wanted desperately to explore, but she was struggling to decide if she wanted to yell or run away. She settled on the third option: neither.

    “Nah, fuck that,” she growled, pointing the spatula like a sword at the tiny, emo interloper.

    “Get that snitching-ass gremlin the fuck outta here.”

    Summary

    Life's not bad for Gideon. She's got a nice predictable job, good friends, a hot roommate. The worst thing is having to deal with her roommate's shitty sister and their terrible friend, but its worth the tradeoff.

    It was simple, and for Gideon that was good enough.

    But things hadn't always been so great. Someone died and the events that followed shattered her world, but you'd never know it talking to her.

    Then one day a familiar face returns and turns everything upside down. Gideon thought she'd moved on but then doubt began to creep in...

    Please read the tags. I'll add them as I come across them. So please review them from time to time <3

    Summary

    Of all her gigs, writing advice for a column in a skin magazine is probably Gideon's favorite, though walking Noodle for Cam and Pal is a close second. Even when it brings her within glaring distance of their across-the-hall neighbors. The Nonagesimus sisters. The younger, a little weird but fine. The elder? A pit viper.

    At least on the surface.

    Editing and reading books is what she does for a living. Even when they're the most inane drivel one could put to paper. Even when it's the tawdry and brazen erotica variety. Even when Harrow actually secretly enjoys them.

    Even the ones from her most trying client, the somewhat acclaimed erotic book author Gideon Nav.

    Which she'd rather die than admit to.

    Summary

    In less than a week, Gideon would be surrounded at any moment by goggling children and fawning women, and their interactions would consist of Gideon winking at Harrow from over the heads of her entourage as she took endless selfies. It was excruciating to watch, but at the moment, felt preferable to watching Gideon awkwardly scratch her head and ask “How’s stall set-up going?” as if it would ever be possible for the two of them to have a normal conversation.

    ****

    It’s Harrow’s last year selling bone jewelry at the Dominicus Renaissance Faire before she finishes her PhD. Which means one last summer putting up with Sir Gideon, the obnoxious knight that’s been a thorn in Harrow’s side for the past three years. Except, Harrow made out with her at last year’s end of season party, and things have only gotten more complicated since then.
