Summary
There’s a reason Nat avoids physical touch.
She’s fine with sex, impersonal and fast, and she accepts the exuberant clash of her teammates when they win, but other than that she doesn't touch anyone and she doesn't let anyone touch her, either.
Because Nat is all burnt edges and hard lines and anger. She’s not made for tenderness, she isn't built to be held, or protected, or caressed. She couldn't tell you the last time someone hugged her, or held her just for the sake of holding her. And it's better that way, because deep down Nat thinks one gentle touch might break her completely.
Then along comes Lottie Matthews, all big brown eyes and faux-innocent expression, asking to fucking hug her and well.
It all just spirals from there.Touch adverse/touch starved Nat + five times Lottie touches her

Summary
Sometimes time passes in a blur, sometimes she loses days, weeks, to the black hole of pills, but when she comes back to herself, she checks the time and keeps waiting.
Because they lived through the unimaginable out there, for nineteen months. She knows she can survive nineteen months of anything. She knows it can take nineteen months to be rescued. She knows her team will come for her.
---
OrIt takes Lottie nineteen months to accept that no one is coming to save her.

Summary
“Is there any scenario where this doesn’t end in disaster?”
“This” being: Hope is in love with Lizzie and is best friends with Josie, and Josie is Lizzie’s twin sister and Penelope’s ex girlfriend, and Penelope is still in love with Josie but is sleeping with Hope, who still hates Penelope, no matter what anyone else might say.
This is why it’s easier to just never care about anyone. Hope thinks.
She puts her head down on the table with a thunk. “No. This is so fucked up.”
Penelope just laughs. -

Summary
“So you’re telling me: you lied to your boss and said you have a girlfriend when you don’t, because you need to impress them at some fancy retreat for a promotion and they’re sexist and will think you’re pathetic if you’re single, and somehow you thought the best plan was to fly halfway across the world, track down your ex girlfriend, whom you haven’t spoken to in five years, and ask her to pretend to be your girlfriend for two weeks?”
Regina nods succinctly. “Yes, exactly. So you’ll do it?”Series

Summary
Janis stops pacing to glare at Damian. “What?”
“Janis, you know I love you and you’re my soulmate and you’ll be the best man at my wedding and godmother to my many children, but…” Damian adds a flourish of paint to the backdrop and then turns to face her. “But in the past you haven’t exactly been… rational when it comes to Regina George.”
Janis narrows her eyes. “And your point is?”
“Half the time you look at Regina like you're going to kill her and the other half you look like you’re going to jump her right there in the middle of lunch.”Series

Summary
And since Janis figures she’s already gone crazy today, she might as well finish the job, and so she edges her hand out of her jacket sleeves and flips it over, leaving her palm up and open.

Summary
She hates it, she hates that she’s a bad person, but not bad enough to just kiss Kara and strip her down and fuck her without feeling guilty for tainting the one pure thing in her life. She hates her family for making her this way, hates herself for letting their hate turn her hard and cruel, instead of strong and kind like Kara. She is so full of hate, she is drowning in it- only around Kara does she feel like she can breathe.

Summary
JJ reaches out, curling her fingers around Emily’s, unclenching them. She stays silent, waits for Emily to continue while she runs her fingertips along the other woman’s palm. Emily feels the touch like a brand.
“But secretly?” She takes a deep breath, exhales slow. Listens for a moment to the steady pace of JJ’s breathing. “I think a part of me always hoped it was all true, you know? That I’d find my soulmate someday. That it really would be worth it.”
It takes a herculean effort for JJ to keep the heartbreak out of her voice. “Hoped?”
“I…” Emily falters. She hesitates, licks her lips. She can’t bring herself to say it.
“Emily..” JJ breathes in. Breathes out. Forces out the words: “Do you know who your soulmate is?” -

Summary
So Lena congratulates her coworkers when they announce they’ve found the one. She smiles when Sam tells her about meeting Alex; the burst of joy she felt when Alex said the words that matched Sam’s wrist. She’s there when when James proposes to Winn, James repeating the words that have been written on Winn’s wrists for years. But she never discusses her own soulmate.
And really, it just makes sense to avoid speaking to Supergirl.
She’s just a scientist, Lena tells herself, and Supergirl is Supergirl. She could have anyone she wants, so why would she pick Lena?
She’d never want to be with her, Lena reminds herself as she traces the words on her wrist. And Supergirl will never know, anyway, because Kryptonians don’t have soulmate marks. -

Summary
Carmilla has a crush, Laura is oblivious, and the rest of the gang is there to make fun, and maybe help them out a little too.
"Wait, why are we here?" Kirsch looked totally lost. Danny rolled her eyes again.
"Is it that hard for you to keep up, Zeta?" She spoke slowly like it was taking all her effort to speak to him. "Carmilla is desperately in love with Laura and we know Laura will never notice and Karnstein doesn't have the balls to admit it so we've decided to do something about it."
Kirsch had a big smile on his face now.
"So we're gonna be like, matchmakers for them! Cool! Little-nerd-hottie deserves someone hot like Carmilla." Danny smacked him on the arm. "I mean, like, they deserve to be happy."
