    Summary

    Helen shouldn't be here. Indeed, the Helen she was even a few months prior wouldn't be here, and perhaps this is exactly why she's come.

    Summary

    Desperate times call for desperate measures. That’s something Helen Parr will learn the hard way as she sees herself forced to turn to her last resource, her former associate, to help her find those who she had lost, but she will have a price to pay, for nothing ever comes for free.
    And Evelyn Deavor’s price was far higher than she had thought.

    Summary

    Lena was used to crumbs, she liked crumbs, as she knew that they were infinitely better than nothing.

    She especially loved the crumbs Kara left strewn behind in her wake. Small signs that she had been there, physical representations that she had left something for Lena… had given something to Lena...

    Just this once, though - if she was being totally honest with herself - she wished for more than crumbs when it came to Kara.

    Summary

    Kara cradles her pile of dirty plates. She doesn’t know how to open Lena’s brand new dishwasher without ripping the handle apart. She usually figures these things out through trial and error, but she’s never been alone in Lena’s apartment, and she can’t risk winging it in front of her.

    So, she just stands by the sink and watches the hot water redden Lena’s sensitive skin, the light glinting off her beautiful earrings, and my happiness bites the plum of your mouth.The verse comes to her, unbidden, from one of their weekly poems. Lena always chooses poems with such physicality to them. Always real, touchable.

    ---

    Or: Kara is an alien, Lena is a genius. Their strangeness separates and connects them to the world and each other in peculiar ways. Being human in Lena’s eyes allows Kara to tap into parts of herself she hadn’t been able to explore before, but she knows her secret will one day stop being a bridge between them, and they’ll both lose the version of Kara Lena has grown to love. (Tender slow burn, mutual respect, bittersweetness and tentative physicality galore! Some angst and a lot of joy)
