    Summary

    A dame comes wandering into Kara Danvers's office, asking for help against her husband. Thing is, the dame is Lena Luthor, her former friend and occasional collaborator, and almost certainly the love of her life. And the thing is, too: Lena's husband tried to kill Kara for their friendship. All told, Kara should send her away. She doesn't.

    Kara Danvers is like any other person in love. A damnable idiot.

    or

    the noir au.

    Summary

    Of mercenaries, Machiavelli writes: “they are disunited, ambitious, and without discipline, unfaithful, valiant before friends, cowardly before enemies; they have neither the fear of God nor fidelity to men”

    The Kryptonian captain is the worst of their kind, ruthless, ferocious, and unscrupulous, one who could never be charged with cowardice. There is not a fight the Red Daughter has not won, not a city she has not attacked and brought to its knees. There is no man, woman, or child in Italy who would not tremble at her name.

    It is exactly why Lex Luthor hires her to head his army that he sets out to wipe his bastard sister’s city off the face of the earth.

    Summary

    Lena's not like a fan fan of Kara Danvers or anything, but Kara did work with TRAFFIC to help break the story that brought down Hydra. And then she didn't even make a big deal out of it -- said, "all I did was snap photos", respectfully turned down an interview with Cat Grant, and blushed on live Instagram when she saw Cat had branded her Supergirl for all her efforts. 

    So, maybe Lena has a very small, very professional crush on Kara and the work she does, but she's cool about it. She thinks she's cool about it, at least -- and then her words get stuck in her throat as soon as she walks up to Kara to introduce herself.

    Especially when Kara turns around, big blue eyes glittering as she smiles at Lena, and asks, "Are you Lena Luthor?"

     

    OR, the au where Lena's an investigative journalist that's never managed to land a front page story, Kara's a hotshot National Geographic photographer, and they make a really good team.

    Summary

    +

    The problem is that every time Lena sees Kara--her sparkly eyes and easy smile and the way her whole face lights up the moment Lena enters a room--she mostly wants to forgive her, more than anything she just wants to be close to her. She wants her friend back, wants to be normal again, wants to pretend this whole thing never even happened and she never found out Kara's Supergirl.

    She wants to go back to being in love with her, wants to actually get a chance to tell Kara that she's in love with her, but she can't. She can't do any of that.

     

    OR, the one where Lena cries a lot, loses Kara, gets her back, and starts learning how to be okay again. Especially that last bit. ♥

    “Kara,” Andrea cut in sharply. She gave her the tiniest shake of the head in wonder. “What are you doing?”

    “What are we doing?” Kara countered.

    “Some healthy after hours stress relief?” Andrea said simply, and perhaps to her, it really was that simple.

    a.k.a. a colleagues with benefits AU, wherein Kara and Andrea inadvertently find more than just solace in each other.

    Summary

    It’s been a month since she found out.

    It’s been a month, and in that time, Lena hasn’t stopped trying to not think about it. In that time, she’s probably gone through the five stages of grief ten times over. In that time, Lena has just—stopped working. Her CPU has crashed and burned and flung itself off a fucking mountain cliff but the memory unit is somehow still intact and she just Can Not seem to forget.

    And she’s tried, okay? Tried drowning herself in work, tried her luck at yoga, even ramped up her already high alcohol intake. Tried every trick in the book that would get her to stop thinking about Kar—no, she doesn’t even know a Kara anymore. About Supergirl.

    (All those, even altogether, worked maybe barely.)

    Or: Kara lies to Lena, Lena lies to Kara, Lena lies to herself and Kara really just wants it all to stop so she can have her Lena back.

    To be honest: Lena fucking hates hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. It's twenty-six hundred miles of blisters and heat and frostbite, an incorrigible cocktail of bro culture and toxic masculinity and being judged in a judgement free zone. It's dehydration and migraines and shit sleep and shit food, and some days it's hard to find a reason she shouldn't just book a flight out the first chance she gets reception and the elusive phone charge.

    To be honest: She also fucking loves it. It's beautiful and breathtaking, the most rewarding thing she's ever done, and the hardest she's ever pushed her body. It's camping with Andrea, perfect sunsets, views, trail angels and it's... Kara Danvers. In fact, this whole thing might be worth it just because she meets Kara Danvers.
     

    OR, post college hiking au, where Lena's hopeless, Andrea is a mess, and Kara's just along for any ride.

    Summary

    The door opened and both Kara and Lena’s jaws dropped in shock. Kara’s doppelganger strode into the room, a version of Kara sans bangs wearing a supersuit neither woman recognized.

    “Who are you?” Kara-2 ordered, and Lena felt Kara stiffen in front of her.

    “Who are you?” Kara retorted defiantly and Lena rolled her eyes, catching as she finished that both Karas had the same stubborn, confused set to their face.

    “I’m Kara Zor-El,” Kara’s double replied. “Champion of Earth.”

    Kara’s brow furrowed. “I’m Kara Zor-El, Champion of Earth.” There was a tense standoff as the two superheroes processed the information, before Kara worked her jaw and spoke. “Which Earth is this?”

    “How about this? If we aren’t married by thirty, we marry each other. We’re already best friends, we’ll just be living together. Maybe I can finally get a dog.”

    Kara laughed and knocked their toes together. “Okay. A pact then.”

    “Sure, why not. A marriage pact.” Lena wiggled her hand out of Kara’s grasp and held it out, the back of it pressing against the outside of Kara’s blanket-covered knee. “Shake on it?”

    Kara slipped her hand into hers and shook once in a solid pump. “Deal.”

    For the past six months, Lena has employed the services of a high-end cuddling agency to help supplement her severe lack of human contact.

    She tells Sam because she's her best friend, and because Sam loves her, she adopts a horrified, pity-filled expression and says, "Oh, honey."

    And that's how she finds herself with a blind date for next Friday night.

    Summary

    -

    "But you don't have a hickey," Kara points out, and Lena just smiles. Like it's a silly thing to say, like there's something Kara's not getting that should be painfully obvious. Then she tilts her head and drops her eyes to Kara's lips, and suddenly it is painfully obvious. "Lena, what, I can't—"

    "Kara," Lena frowns. "It's like six seconds of licking my neck, it's not the end of the world."

    'But i'm a vampire', Kara wants to say out loud, except that gives them a bad reputation. Really, she should say, 'but i'm in love with you. i've loved you all along and Jesus christ this is pushing me over the edge', but she can't get those words to formulate for some reason, so she goes with, "I just don’t think it's the best idea."
