Summary
Kara Danvers mourns Lena Luthor. She then disappears. Alex only knows about one, and it's not the one she should. Lena knows about neither.
--
She wonders if people know she hurt Lena. She thinks so. Andrea has been giving her worse and worse assignments and has practically demoted her, and Kara knows Andrea would fire her if she wasn’t scared of Cat, Nia doesn’t speak to her much anymore, and Alex is still hurt over their confrontation in her apartment, so no one notices when she slips out of CatCo, the walls closing in and boxing her into a tiny space until she couldn’t breathe.Which is also how no one notices for six days that Kara Danvers is not around, and, by default, Supergirl.

Summary
A case hits close to home to JJ.
---
She parks in her assigned space, deciding to save time by not straightening out, and hurries into the building. Her chunky heels clack against the pavement and the tiles as she half-jogs, desperate to get into her office. Reading the case report makes her nausea worse. It’s children.
And then she reads where the case originated from.

Summary
“And I’d do anything to save this,” Kara pleads, finishing her speech.
“You can leave the same way you came in, Supergirl,” Lena spits, and she winces. The deliberate use of her alias roils around in her gut. Bile is in the back of her throat despite not really being someone who can throw up, the last time having been during her throes of Argo Fever, but she nods, almost imperceptibly.
“If you’re ever in trouble, use the watch,” Kara says, standing rigidly on the balcony, shaking hands hidden behind her back. “I will always come when you call.”

or, the one where Kara runs away to find herself, but will always come when Lena needs her. -

Summary
Superheroes don’t get therapy. It’s almost a universal (or multi-universal, Kara supposes) rule that they can’t. It’s not necessarily that they don’t want therapy, but more so that it’s dangerous to. At worst, a crooked therapist could sell out an identity or two. At best, they just wouldn’t be able to understand.
Even if she needs it.
