    Summary

    When Cressida moved to a village near the town she grew up in, she didn't expect her ex-best friend's sister to be her neighbour. However, she drastically needed a change of pace and a sense of community, and hoped that she might find it there.

    Eloise, still dealing with the passing of Colin and Penelope, was slowly figuring out how to be a parent. With stress leaving her exhausted, the last thing she needed was Cressida bloody Cowper moving in next to her.

    A slowburn, second-chance romance with single-parent Eloise and wholesome neighbour Cressida.

    Summary

    Just the idea of Lena kissing her, is a lot and she’s shocked at how much she wants her to do just that. It makes sense, in this moment, casting spells and making unions. It could be another way in which they could truly connect their bodies and oh, Rao, this is new. Is this new? Kara’s not sure she knows anymore.

    Maybe it’s the magic, the connection of the spell, binding them as one in some way Kara can’t comprehend, nor understand, or maybe it’s something that’s always been there? A longing, dormant in the back of her mind, waiting for a spark to awaken it. Her heart, her feelings. Lena.

    “To us,” Kara says, knocking the entire drink back and trying to pull herself together.

    OR

    Wondering why Lena's avoiding her, Kara goes in search of answers.

    Magic, an almost kiss, and the arrival of Lena's daughter from the future?
    It's a lot to deal with, alongside whatever feelings these two might have for each other.

    Summary

    “Miss Luthor,” Kara gets to her feet, slightly flustered, as is often the case when Lena is around. They’ve met a handful of times and it’s always the same. Kara can’t deny that Lena Luthor is captivating. She’s also powerful, has poise, exudes confidence whenever she walks in any room, even if it’s only the diner on Kara’s block. Lena’s perfectly put together and immaculately dressed, always. It’s the reason Kara quickly adjusts her sweater, whilst praying her hair isn’t sticking out at all angles. 

    The way Lena keeps staring at her, isn’t filling her with much confidence that she’s been successful and as the seconds tick by, slowly, Lena seems to gather herself, stepping forward, her hand waving in the air in front of her. 

    “Call me, Lena, please,” she says, her tone warm, inviting and it has Kara smiling. “So, what has National City’s hottest new reporter, visiting my favourite diner on thanksgiving?” 
    --
    OR

    Facing a night alone in her apartment, Kara heads to her favourite diner, only for Lena Luthor to walk in and perhaps, that chance encounter, will set their relationship on a whole other trajectory.
