Summary
"I love him!" Nat shoots up from the couch. "You wouldn't get it."
"What the hell does that mean?"
"You just... You only do hookups or short-term stuff. You never stick around with someone for long."
Lottie bites her tongue to keep from reminding Natalie just how long she's stuck around for their friendship, despite being forced to watch this train wreck of Nat's relationship like a masochist. Maybe Lottie would find someone to commit to if she could stay away from Nat long enough to forget she's been in love with her since freshman year of high school.
or
Lottie, in love with Natalie for the better part of ten years, takes Nat in during her most recent breakup with Travis. The only question is whether or not Nat is going to stay.

Summary
“You’re flirting with me. “ Lottie states simply, shrugging her shoulders as if she was pointing out a fact with no innuendo whatsoever.
“I’m not flirting with you, Mrs. Matthews. “ Nat smiles lazily, tilting on her arm and slowly moves to rest her face in her hand. The movement and new position brings their faces closer together, still a fair amount of space between them but enough to force Lottie to look at her.
“It’s 'Miss', actually. “ Lottie corrects her.
“Well, look who’s flirting now. “
or
the one where Natalie is too feral for her own good, and it's Lottie's job to keep her out of trouble.
or
the one where Natalie is a rockstar and Lottie is her publicist.

Summary
“Sure, I'll do it,” Nat agrees. Against her better judgement, maybe, but fuck it—she’s never been one for smart decisions, and she won't start now. “I'll be your arm candy, rage bait, whatever. Just don’t go falling in love with me or anything.”
The corner of Lottie’s mouth curls upwards, showing her crooked tooth. “I’ll do my best.”
She holds out her right hand, waiting. Nat reaches out and takes it, and there: an agreement struck by words, bound by skin. Down the hall, across sun-drenched tiling, the shadows of tree branches stretch out like antlers below them.

Summary
It all starts because of Keyleth: Keyleth, who turns his apartment into a greenhouse within a month of knowing him despite his antisocial demeanor; Keyleth, who gathers up his awards show after-party invitations and plans out their itinerary like a travel agent; Keyleth, who walks up to her favorite band sitting at a bar and says, Hey, I love your music.
But fame isn't quite so bad, Percy says to Vex with a smile, if it introduced him to someone like her.

Bookmarker's Notes
The woman looking back at her is tired. She is begging for Kara, hoping for the kind of unbridled affection she’s so often granted in her presence.
“Don’t be an idiot,” she says, watches her lips move and noting softly to herself that maybe she needs to buy new vanilla chapstick before flicking off the lights, making her way back to her bedroom without her flashlight to lead her in the dark for no real reason.

Summary
Lena hates the theatre.
Okay, maybe hate is a strong word, but honestly, it’s accurate. She’s hated theatre for nearly as long as she can remember, her distaste lasting from childhood and through her adolescence and sticking stubbornly all the way to adulthood. She hates plays and opera and symphonies and musical theatre, and she hates having to sit in one place for hours at a time, and she hates how unproductive the whole ordeal is, how it means she has to waste precious time she could be spending in the lab watching people play public make-believe.
Theatre is annoying. A waste of time. Everyone who knows anything about her knows how much she hates it.
Which is why she would currently rather be anywhere in the world than here, at the Royal National City Theatre’s latest production of whatever the fuck.
.
In which Kara is a Shakespeare actor (and also Supergirl), and Lena can’t stop going to see the same production of Twelfth Night over and over because the actor who plays Viola is hot.

Summary
“What promise?” says Lena, brushing a strand of golden hair, stained red, from Supergirl’s face. She looks so small like this, so fragile, so human. “You didn’t break any promises. You’re just fine.”
Supergirl shakes her head slowly, like the movement pains her. “Told—told you I would always protect you. Promised. Promised I’d always be… your friend.”
Lena stares at her. “You’ve never told me that. That was—”
And then her stomach drops so violently that it’s like someone’s reached in and ripped out her organs.
She whispers, “No.”
.
Supergirl falls. Lena discovers her true identity in the worst possible way.

Summary
“Where did you get that?”
Sam furrows her eyebrows, looks up at her with such intensity of confusion that it’s visible in HD clarity despite the buffering of her screen. “You…sent it to me?”
“No,” Lena says, winded and on edge, staring pointedly at the letter grasped between Sam’s fingers. What the fuck. What the fuck. What the fuc—“I didn’t send that to you.”
Sam opens her mouth, and then closes it. Lena honest-to-god feels like she’s about to faint.
alternatively: [TATBILB au] Things go wrong when the letters get out, they get worse when Andrea comes crashing back into her life with no warning, they get worser when Kara is the best goddamn fake girlfriend in the whole wide world.

Summary
“Okay. What’s your name?”
Lena’s response is knee-jerk. “None of your damn business.”
Supergirl runs her fingers through her hair. It sticks up wildly near her temple, and Lena can see a slight cowlick. It’s strangely humanizing. “Look, my boss isn’t going to like that I’m working with an unknown as it is. If we’re going to work together, I at least need something to call you.”
When Lena shakes Supergirl’s hand, she feels the warmth of victory when the hero seems shocked at the firmness of her grip. But alarmingly an even stronger warmth radiates from their joined palms, spreading up her arm; Lena pulls her hand back faster than what’s generally considered polite, curling it into a fist.
“You can call me Kieran.”
OR
For over a hundred years, Lena has been trying to escape the suffocating hierarchy of the fae – and ever since her mother moved LuthorCorp to National City the only way to do so is to work with Supergirl, with whom Lena shares a soul-deep connection she can’t control.
What’s a vampire to do?

“All right. Let’s keep moving, Lena Luthor,” Kara says softly, quietly, “the touchy drunk.”

Summary
“So?” Alex prompts.
Kara looks up from the styrofoam container, already having broken apart her chopsticks. “So what?”
“What do you mean so wha—Kara!” Kara freezes, chopsticks hanging in midair clutching a piece of kung pao chicken. There is real frustration and confusion in Alex’s voice. “Imagine my surprise when I sign in at the front desk and the nurse says that my sister-in-law is stable right now. Wanna tell me why you’re playing house to visit your best friend in the hospital?”
Kara sets the chicken down. “Alex…”
“Kara, you have ten seconds to explain why the entire staff thinks you and Lena are married and the answer had better not actually involve marriage or I swear to god I’ll…”
____________
In which Kara is a whole entire idiot, Alex is a permanent mood, and Lena is just glad Kara is there for her, as her fake wife, while she recovers from another quarterly attempt on her life.

Summary
One day, two women meet on the subway. The recently dumped Lena is recovering from a broken heart, and Kara is grappling with the open-ish relationship she has with her long-distance boyfriend. They decide that they’re going to become friends. The kind of friends who also have totally casual, no-strings-attached, nobody’s-catching-feelings sex. What could go wrong?
As Alex puts it: “Kara. This is the dumbest thing you’ve ever done. And I’m including the time that you set fire to your own hair and nearly burned the house down trying to do some spell you found on MySpace to make Troy Bolton materialize in real life and marry you.”
Or: Lena and Kara go around New York City eating food and banging each other until their feelings eat away at them, and Alex tries not to have an aneurysm about it.
