    Summary

    “Please,” Lena says, shrugging her shoulders. “You know you’re my favourite. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. You’re my favourite. You’re acting like this is brand new information.”

    And that's—

    Wow. To hear Lena say this, to know that this still holds true even after everything that has happened… Kara flushes. She fiddles with her belt, exhales softly.

    or Lena is a terrible enabler. Kara wants anything and everything Lena will give her, and underneath the weight of such gentle, earnest warmth, it keeps escaping Kara why that is dangerous.

    Summary

    Kara is back from the Phantom Zone and Lena thinks the SuperFriends are acting weird. She finds herself on the outside looking in—Kara making time for everyone but her—and rather than confront anyone and actually talk about what is happening, she steals off to a small Midwestern town for space to process what that means for her future with Kara and the group. Kara, of course, can't help but follow.

    Summary

    One day, two women meet on the subway. The recently dumped Lena is recovering from a broken heart, and Kara is grappling with the open-ish relationship she has with her long-distance boyfriend. They decide that they’re going to become friends. The kind of friends who also have totally casual, no-strings-attached, nobody’s-catching-feelings sex. What could go wrong?

    As Alex puts it: “Kara. This is the dumbest thing you’ve ever done. And I’m including the time that you set fire to your own hair and nearly burned the house down trying to do some spell you found on MySpace to make Troy Bolton materialize in real life and marry you.”

    Or: Lena and Kara go around New York City eating food and banging each other until their feelings eat away at them, and Alex tries not to have an aneurysm about it.

    Summary

    For an immortal, finding peace in a slow and lengthy existence can often drive one to unending boredom and recklessness. With the world progressing and warping into a ball of wire and plastics and technology, that once boundless territory is choked and hard to find. There are still some pockets of wildness left in this realm to exist in, and that is where the Morrigan has tucked herself away. In a small cozy home on the far rocks of the Faroes, she has finally found peaceful refuge after centuries of turmoil just on the edge of modern humanity. Lonely and far from her true home she keeps to herself, until one evening her life is upended again in the form of a fiery Fae and broken wards.
