Summary
“Shaun hadn’t planned on going back to New Jersey. Not really.
Brown had been everything, in its own way. It was where things finally started to make sense. Where he stopped trying to force himself into shapes that never quite fit and instead let himself become something real. Something him. He cut his hair, let it fall into a short, messy, stubborn mop of dark curls that never quite behaved. Let his body change, grow into itself. Broader shoulders, stronger frame—not just from time, but from finally feeling like he was allowed to exist in it.
But the job market didn’t care about change. Or maybe it did—it just didn’t care about any involving him.”
AKA The self-indulgent Transmasc Shauna story where he can't find a job post-college and goes back home to work on Lottie's ranch and is forced to face the consequences of his actions, including one Jackie Taylor.

Summary
The woman stops her pacing, setting her pale and unevenly-coloured eyes on Kara, and in that moment Kara understands - for the very first time - how Helen of Troy’s face could have been beautiful enough to start a war.
“Enough. I’m tired of being passed from one person to the next. Tell me,” the woman says fiercely after Kara has been quiet for too long. “Who are you?”
“I’m, um,” Kara says, wiggling her feet until they’re buried in the sand up to the ankle. “I’m Kara.”
The woman stares at Kara, incredulous and silent. It stretches out between them, those lingering questions and Kara’s unwillingness to answer them, until finally her shoulders sink and she deflates with a small, disbelieving laugh.
“Right. Well, I’m Lena,” she says, finally seeming to realize her dress is torn and pulling it tighter, "and if you don’t mean me harm, then I suppose you just saved me.”
OR
Kara’s pod crash happens in 6th century Greece, and she grows up eager to be like the heroes whose myths comforted her in the wake of Krypton’s destruction. But when she accidentally reveals her powers and the world views her as a demigod, Kara begins to understand just how dangerous that can be.

Summary
When Lena finds out Kara and Supergirl are lovers, of course she’s happy for them. Ecstatic, even. She’s always sworn no one could be good enough for her Kara, but Supergirl comes close. Nevermind that Supergirl abandons Kara on dates, drags her onto dangerous battlefields for “the story,” and doesn’t seem to give a flying hunk of kryptonite that Kara is constantly being kidnapped to bring Supergirl down. No, Lena is thrilled.
—
The DEO stages a relationship between Kara Danvers and Supergirl to foil Cadmus. Lena doesn’t handle it as well as she could.
