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.

Summary
Two years after billionaire Lena Luthor vanished from her office at L-Corp, Tess Mercer appeared in an alleyway in Metropolis with no memory of her past. Barely scraping by as a mechanic in the slums of the city, she finds herself troubled by the things she can do, building bombs from scrap metal and fighting off people with skills she doesn't know where she learnt. Her memory is gone, just out of reach, but Tess can't help but feel like there's something more to her blank past than she knows. Searches for the truth turn up empty, until the fourth anniversary of Lena Luthor's disappearance, when Tess sees her face on the TV and knows that the person she's looking at is herself.
On the other side of the country, Kara Danvers has spent the last four years searching for her missing wife while raising her nephew and masquerading as a part-time superhero. When there's finally news of Lena, things don't go to plan when she comes home to a wife she doesn't know she has, and an eight-year-old child that isn't hers. As they try to recover Lena's memory and figure out what happened to her, Kara struggles to let go of the fact that she might never get her wife back.

Summary
Betrayal is not an unfamiliar thing.
As wretchedly sad as it would be to admit aloud, or indeed to herself, Lena knew it as distinctly as she knew herself. She knew the way it felt in her chest, the weight of it inside her body and the bitter taste it always left in her mouth until she chased it away. Some betrayals were lesser than others. Some stung but failed to surprise her, some barely gained a reaction, and some came out of nowhere and sent her reeling and overly self-analytical to see where she went wrong, what she had done to deserve it. The answer was usually simple: her name.
She just never expects it from Kara.

Summary
“I’m sure.” Lena doesn’t mean to snap —it’s more of a mild annoyance if anything because if her once best friend doesn’t know that there is no way in hell she would be doing this if she didn’t want to, if she didn’t, however unwillingly, trust Kara with this, then did she ever know her at all? “As long as you’re amenable, Kara, I’m offering my complete consent. Is that okay, or would you like it in writing as well?”
For the first time, Lena’s snipe and the crystal clear memory of their last phone call just makes Kara smile. “I’m good,” she says softly.
“Good.”
“You know, a week ago, the morning after we— I’d convinced myself it was a dream. I was scared to check my call log.”
“Do you have many wet dreams about me, Kara?”
Kara laughs suddenly, though she can’t help but feel like she’s been missing out on an essential experience. “No.”
“Shame.”
“You, uh, you hung up last time,” Kara ventures hesitantly. “Before I could…”
“If you’re worried I didn’t complete the mission, I’m happy to inform you that I did.”
“No, before I could tell you that you sounded beautiful.”
--
Or, the one with phone sex and feelings and the complexity of forgiveness.
