    Summary

    It’s not as though she’s never been kissed before, but this—this—is different.

    It’s Elphaba.

    Brilliant, infuriating, impossible Elphaba.

    Summary

    The jury summons arrives on a Friday.

    “You have to get yourself disqualified,” Alex says.

    Kara frowns. “What about my civic duty?”

    Her sister ignores her. She’s on her phone, already finding her an out. “Your occupation should qualify you for an exemption,” she discovers. “It says here, if you’re full-time military, or a firefighter, or a cop—”

    Kara holds the letter up for Alex to read. “They didn’t summon Supergirl,” she says. “They summoned Kara Danvers, freelance food critic and full-time reporter.”

    -

    In which no one escapes jury duty, not even superheroes and celebrity CEOs, and when Kara Danvers and Lena Luthor end up in sequestration, well—the defense submits that there's more than one type of civic service.

    Summary

    Glinda’s surprised at her honesty, nodding her head as she pressed her chest against the other girl’s, her own eyes flicking down to her lips, “Well if you’re really curious, I retaliated because Pfannee and ShenShen said you liked me. Now I ask you, do you?”

    Of course they would plant that idea in her head. It was a very wrong idea, at least at the time. But now, maybe they had a point.

    “I didn’t like you then,” she admits, finally letting go of the book and the towel as bravery courses through her, ignoring the way it thumps and splays out on the carpeted floor. Her hand was now on the shorter girl’s waist, pulling her impossibly close, “Now I’m holding everything back to not kiss you.”

     

    or

     

    Elphaba and Glinda take their loathing to flirting.

    Summary

    Lena knows.

    Lena knows, because Lex told her before Kara got the chance to do it herself.

    Kara knows that Lena knows because she tried to tell her, afterwards. They had an awful crying, shouting fight about it in Lena's office, the kind of fight that sticks under Kara's skin and keeps her awake at night.

    (Kara accidentally crunched a handprint into Lena's desk. Lena threw Kara's phone off of her office balcony.

    She doesn't want to talk about it.)

    or: the story of what happens after Kara and Lena fall apart
