Summary
Her Brother's Keeper
A CatCo Magazine exclusive by Kara Danvers
Photos by James Olsen//
“Now,” Lena says, physically pushing her keyboard away on her desk, as though trying to distance herself from the temptation to keep working. “What can I do for you?”
Anyone who has met Lena is familiar with these words. They are her go-to greeting; practiced, polite, and most importantly, meant in earnest. A thesis statement: Lena Luthor wants to help.

Summary
Lena’s POV of the increasingly frequent and familiar kisses Kara keeps bestowing on her in the guise of friendship in the course of their ever more connected lives, and how her poor Luthor heart copes, or tries to and an exploration of her magic and how that might bring her closer to Kara in new and unexpected ways.
Set post s6. Written as a series of short chapters in one overarching story for Suprecorptober 2023 that will cover all the tumblr prompts just a little out of order and some have been paired up as I was a little late to the party! Now Complete. Tags updated to reflect where this story ended up as it got a little longer and more complex than I'd planned!

Summary
Ava rolls over, shutting her brain off, and very carefully presses the palm of her hand on Beatrice’s waist.
Beatrice tenses immediately, a sharp intake of breath filling the otherwise quiet bedroom.
A few seconds pass with nothing and Ava starts to pull away, an apology on her lips, when Beatrice grabs her wrist. It’s so fast that Ava hardly registers what happened, but suddenly, she’s being pulled to the other side of the bed.
Ava lets it happen, helps, and now she’s hovering over Beatrice. She’s so close she can see the shine in her eyes, how wide they are and she can see them flicker to her lips and back up.
Bea’s made this move, it’s her turn now. Ava leans forward, giving Beatrice a chance to turn her away.
When she doesn’t, it’s game over. Their lips meet and every functioning part of Ava’s brain that might tell her there will be consequences to this completely disappear.
The world could set fire tonight and Ava would keep kissing her as the apartment collapsed around them.
or
Ava and Bea hook up in Switzerland and everything is a mess because of it.

Summary
A tumblr prompt, spiraled out of control.
Kara, perhaps out of a want for thoroughness in her story, perhaps out of a Millennial-born urge to creep on a the social media of a woman she finds intriguing, discovers that Lena Luthor has a pretty active following on Instagram one afternoon not long after their first meeting. She debates it, just for a moment, before following Lena.

Summary
Lena’s mouth twists into a tiny smile and she realizes that she’s beginning to lean forward. Closer to Kara’s surprised smile. She turns and walks back over to her desk, she really has a lot of work to do. “I hope this isn’t the last time we talk,” she adds, and finds that she means it.
(Or, a spaceship explodes. Kara decides to become a reporter. And Lena Luthor finally gets something like a happy ending.)

Summary
Lena lives in a world of bright, indescribable colors. She walks calculated paths among webs of lasers radiating from every person she sees. She avoids large gatherings where the atmosphere becomes a dizzying mess of psychedelic flares and smoke, but she treasures every individual as the sum of their parts: the auras glowing tight around their wrists.
Her mother calls them “soul bonds,” a magical manifestation of the connection between souls that only their bloodline can see. Lena calls them “ribbons.”

This is about as S2 canon compliant as possible with the initial premise. M for language and intimacy.

Summary
When Lena finds out Kara and Supergirl are lovers, of course she’s happy for them. Ecstatic, even. She’s always sworn no one could be good enough for her Kara, but Supergirl comes close. Nevermind that Supergirl abandons Kara on dates, drags her onto dangerous battlefields for “the story,” and doesn’t seem to give a flying hunk of kryptonite that Kara is constantly being kidnapped to bring Supergirl down. No, Lena is thrilled.

The DEO stages a relationship between Kara Danvers and Supergirl to foil Cadmus. Lena doesn’t handle it as well as she could.

Summary
Kara’s happy. She has a great job, a girlfriend who loves her, and castmates who only occasionally post her drunken antics on Instagram. But everyone knows that happy doesn’t get clicks, and when the unstoppable force of an audience’s expectations runs up against the immovable object of a network’s vision, everybody loses except the paparazzi.
or
the one where the network meddles, Lena despairs, and Kara just wants the fandom to find an ounce of goddamn chill.

Summary
“Everyone on this show has an agenda, Kara.”
She regarded the blonde with a quirked eyebrow and asked, “What’s yours?”
“I- I- I um-” Kara brought her right hand up to the bridge of her nose, froze when she found nothing there, then awkwardly dropped her hand to her side. “To… find… love?”
“Right. Love. You’re here to find it, I’m here to help you.” Lena paused. “Kind of.”
“Well, that sounds ominous.”
***

Summary
Lena realizes something is wrong as soon as she steps inside the penthouse.
It’s not the shattered glass that glitters like fresh snow in the moonlight, nor the wind whistling through the smashed french doors in the living room. Her eyes take all of that in - and of course it isn’t normal - but they halt on a patch of shadow darker than the rest.
OR
The one in which Lena returns home to her wife after a long day at work, and finds a stranger instead.
