    Summary

    Metropolis has been abjectly miserable for the past two years, no one for Lena to turn to with her problems or anxieties. The closest thing she’s had to a friend has been her favorite Chinese place’s delivery drivers.

    Lex had been arrested, Sam had left, and Jack had died all in the course of one really, really shitty year, and the year that’s followed has been exponentially more shitty. Lena’s glad it’s almost over, and that she gets to forcibly eject it from her life like a floppy disk carrying a PC-killing virus with her best friend’s help in a foreign country. Even if it’s a rainy, grey Christmas and New Year's in London.

    or

    Lena Luthor flies to London to celebrate the holidays with her best friend, and then she meets some girl named Kara.

    Summary

    Kara really likes to touch Lena.

    Which, if interpreted to be filthy, Kara would blush bright red all the way to the tips of her ears and swat her hand and scoff and insist, “That’s not what I mean!” And that would have been true at the time (note: at the time).

    Well, upon examination, Kara realizes that maybe it isn’t so much the actual touching but the reaction that her touch draws out of Lena. That bright, filled-with-sunshine smile that shows off Lena’s pretty dimples. The one that makes Kara kind of want to melt into a puddle or burrow into the ground like a fucking mole.

    Not that Kara has anything against moles, because that would be ridiculous. But the point. The point: Kara really likes to touch Lena. The beginning of her downfall.

    or, kara loves to touch lena. in a totally platonic way. totally.

    Summary

    “Lena Luthor, right?” Kara says and Lena’s lips thin. Her ego scoffs at the idea that Kara doesn’t know who she is. Besides having had a class together every semester since freshman year, Lena’s a fairly known entity on campus if only because of her family, just the same as Kara and her goon teammates are well-known.

    “I see your reading skills are intact. Nice to meet you,” she says sarcastically.

    The tragic, amusing, altogether shocking story of how Lena Luthor agrees to tutor an idiot hockey player and, somehow, ends up with a fake girlfriend.

    Summary

    In the entire time Lena has been head chef of Luxe Luthor, “the elegant gastronomic heart of the National City uptown food scene”, no restaurant has ever lasted a year in the location across from her.

    So when Chef Kara Danvers moves in, not even intending to prove her wrong, and starts winning over the hearts of National City, major food critic Cat Grant, and Lena Luthor herself?

    Well, sign Lena up as scared and horny.

    (Hungry. Hungry. She meant hungry.)

    OR

    Lena and Kara are rival chefs in National City, except Kara doesn't know they're rivals.
