    Summary

    “Why are you here?” Adora asks.

    Catra steps in close, gratified when Adora takes a shaky step back and then another, til her back is up against the wall of the gym. “Would you believe that I missed you?”

    --

    When Adora transfers from Horde Academy to Bright Moon Prep in their final year of high school, she and Catra pretty much stop talking. Until they don't.

    Summary

    At the mention of Asami, Korra perks up. “How is she?”

    Tenzin glances at her with a secretive smile.

    “I’m under strict orders to not answer that question. However, I wasn’t told I couldn’t tell you she asked the same.”

    “We’re literally on the same island,” Korra says, exasperated, even though the argument is old by now and clearly useless. “I don’t understand why we can’t see each other until tomorrow.”

     

    (Or: it's the day before Korra and Asami's wedding and they're not allowed to see each other. They agreed to it. It's only a few hours, they can make it, right?)

    Summary

    “Are we… are we okay?”

    “We’re stuck in a nuclear apocalypse, likely a result of my father’s gross negligence, and now used as a playground for an egomaniac’s deranged, power fantasies.”

    “Lena.” Her name is a slow sigh. A patient, painstakingly fragile one at that.

    Lena closes her eyes, inhaling against the torrent of emotions fighting towards a surface she’s not ready to break.

    “Us being stuck here together doesn’t change anything.”

    ---

    Or, Kara and Lena find themselves stranded on a barren Earth where they are forced to work together to survive and finally confront the toxic wasteland their relationship has become.

    Summary

    “Well," the counselor continued, "now that we’ve established your antagonistic rapport-”

    “We don’t even know each other,” Lena practically howled. "I’ve literally never met her.”

    “Yes, well your first-impression is not doing you any favors,” the counselor added pointedly. “Waving threateningly at her-?”

    “She’s literally impenetrable,” Lena said, her voice escalating to frantic. “And you,” she continued, eyes now fixed to golden locks, annoyingly ocean-blue eyes, and the impossible facial symmetry of a goddess, “Are you just going to go along with this?”

    “Well, she has a point,” Supergirl began, “I don’t really have a nemesis yet…”

    // or

    The federal government requires all heroes and their greatest nemesis undergo regular counseling sessions. The only problem? Supergirl doesn't have a nemesis yet. The good news? Lena Luthor just moved to town.

    Summary

    “Long night, honey?” Catra called all her customers honey. It was diner thing more than a Catra thing. The drunk mumbled something incoherent and Catra rolled her eyes. Just because she was used to dealing with drunks on a nearly nightly basis didn’t mean they weren’t annoying as hell. She hardened her tone and raised her voice a little, “You’re going to have to speak up if you want to order anything.”

    The drunk finally sat up, pushed their hood back, and looked at Catra, blue eyes bloodshot and tear stained. Catra recognized her instantly.

    “Adora?”

    Summary

    “Yang,” Blake says finally. “How old are you?”

    “Nineteen,” Yang says. Blake nods, the confusion on her face disappearing. She reaches out with one hand and lays it atop Yang’s prosthetic. Gently, she guides Yang’s hand down so that there isn’t a gun in her face anymore. Yang doesn’t fight her. “How old are you?” Yang asks. Blake sighs, shakes her head, half-smiles.

    “Thirty-two."

    (yang falls, and falls, and falls through time.)

    Summary

    There’s a kind of electricity to this night, hot and simmering and filled with promise. It’s everywhere; in the secret smiles passing between Weiss and Pyrrha, in the rolling lines of music pushing through the darkened room, and especially in the heat of Yang’s gaze, lilac burning like starlight against Blake’s skin. 

    Yang feels like pure lightning, and Blake welcomes the current with outstretched arms.

    Summary

    They're all looking for something, and that's what draws them together.

    Ruby's looking for adventure, looking out the window and watching the world fly by, wild and strange and uncontrollable. Weiss wants freedom, wants to run far away from long titles and too-heavy responsibilities. Blake searches for a place to heal, and she finds it in the front seat of a battered yellow pickup truck.

    Yang just wants to find her family, but maybe they're already in the strangers she's found on the road.

    Summary

    “Lena’s about to reply when she sees a blonde walk onto the stage, fiddling with her glasses. She’s wearing a light blue buttoned shirt under a casual black blazer, the sleeves rolled up to her forearms, maroon jeans and black sneakers. Her hair is tied up into a ponytail and she looks a little nervous, chest rising and falling with her deep breath as she makes her way to the center of the stage.

    And, as though she can feel someone looking at her, the girl looks toward Lena, striking blue eyes catching hers.”

    Or, Kara’s the lead actress in the fall production, and Lena’s a backstage crew member who really needs to keep her crush under control.

    Summary

    Lena is laughing softly at her, and Kara can feel the buzz of it where Lena’s back presses into her thighs. She huffs, irritated. “You want spontaneous? Fine.” She reaches down to Lena’s hand, currently maneuvering her controller, and slips the ring off her thumb. “Here.”

    Lena cranes her neck away from the TV to stare up at Kara, thumbs stalling on the buttons. “Hey, that’s my—what are you doing?”

    Kara presents the ring before her. “Lena Luthor,” she starts. “You’ve been the love of my life for almost as long as I can remember and my best friend for even longer. And I would be… beyond happy to spend every moment of the rest of our lives together. Marry me?”

    Summary

    Isn’t it weird, Lena thinks bitterly, how the odds keep on stacking against her?

    She never asked to be a Luthor. She isn’t even a real one in the first place. And yet, here she is, dragged by the arms through cold, silent corridors, surrounded by a dozen guards in their polished armor. She is bound, bruised and dirty, escorted to be judged for crimes her brother committed. Lena chuckles derisively. Not Luthor enough in her family’s eyes but enough to be punished in their stead by everyone else.

    Summary

    Lena slides off of her stool, throwing self-preservation to the wind and flinging the door open without looking through the peephole first.

    Kara’s wearing a pair of dark blue jeans and a sweatshirt Lena vaguely remembers borrowing in what feels like another lifetime. Her hands are in her pockets and her head is dipped forward, but her eyes are looking up at Lena, and there’s an air of uncertainty to her that Lena hasn’t seen in nearly a year. It steals the breath from her lungs and the words from her mouth, and her lips part wordlessly as they watch each other across the threshold.

    “Hi,” Kara says softly.

    Her weight shifts to rest unevenly on one leg as she looks at Lena, and Lena remembers how easy it was to talk to her, once.

    Summary

    Korra, I’m coming to the South Pole next month.

    I know you asked for some space… but you also said you’d only be gone a couple of weeks and that you’d write us back, so forgive me for not taking everything you say at face value.

    I do have some legitimate business reasons for visiting, but it would be a lie to say I couldn’t send somebody else if that was all it was. It’s been six months. I want to see you Korra. I hope you let me.

    Yours,
    Asami Sato
