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.

Summary
because lena luthor – despite her family’s very best efforts – is a good person, she does not spend the night thinking impure thoughts about sports bras and yoga mats and thighs that could probably, given half the chance, crack her skull like a walnut.

it is possible, lena will concede, that kara likes her as more than a friend. it's also possible that kara's just a naturally handsy person and lena is hopelessly deluded. clearly, there's only one way to find out the truth: through rigorous scientific observation.

Summary
Kara craves Lena. That's the crux of it. Her friendship is intoxicating, like a drug. She thinks she wouldn't mind kissing her on the lips, because a lot of best friends who are really really close kiss on the lips. It's just something humans do. Having that part of Lena hidden away from her, it makes Kara feel some kind of way.
She wishes Lena was even the slightest bit interested in her. That she would notice her broad shoulders when they work out, or touch her jaw with the pads of her fingers to get her attention.
But that’s not who Kara is to Lena. She would be jealous but they’re just friends, best friends, so.
She’s not.
At all.
Maybe a teeny-weeny bit, but that’s all.

“I hope you know this could probably count as breaking and entering,” Lena murmurs.

“For you? How presumptuous.”
or Lena just really, really wants to touch those biceps.
OR Kara keeps sleeping in Lena’s bed, much to Lena’s horror.

Summary
“It’s a lot easier for me to keep my grip on you when I can actually feel your body.”
The phrase feel your body said in Kara’s voice rattles around in Lena’s head like a pinball machine, but she manages to shrug her sweater off and throw it somewhere behind them before she can second-guess herself. Kara is looking comfortable in a loose white t-shirt, and when she takes Lena by the waist and puts Lena’s hand on her shoulder the texture of it is light and soft.
“Let’s start from square one,” Kara says, so kindly that her next words take a few seconds to register in Lena’s brain. She tightens her grip on Lena’s waist, and says with full confidence:
“Dancing is a lot like sex.”
OR
Against her better judgement Lena agrees to compete on Dancing with the Stars for the PR boost. When her chemistry with her partner Kara gets misconstrued by the press, there’s obviously only one solution.
AKA, a Dancing with the Stars/Fake Dating AU.

Summary
The mechanic isn’t just pretty – she’s muscular. And sweaty. And broad. Her shoulders are wider than they look at first glance, and as she reaches up to remove her hat and wipe at her brow with her forearm, Lena can see her bicep flex.
Lena tries very hard not to be affected by that, or by the adorable red line the ball cap leaves on the woman’s forehead.
“Hi! I’m Kara. James said your Porsche gave out?”
OR
Needing to get away from the stress of her job for a few months, Lena buys a summer lake house in the most remote town she can find. She fully intends on keeping to herself, resting, and interacting as little as possible with the locals.
Until her car breaks down, and the town mechanic happens to be the hottest woman she’s ever seen.

Summary
“Uh,” Kara says eloquently, and then promptly forgets everything and anything and all acceptable social behavior. The whole six shots of vodka thing also does not seem to help, and her next words slip out without any sort of permission. “Your curtains are ugly.”
The pretty lady stares at her in disbelief. Her eyes are a very pretty color, like the sea or the sky or a green Jolly Rancher. “You woke me up at two in the morning to tell me that my curtains are ugly.”
Kara considers this. “Yes.”
or the first time kara meets her very pretty new neighbor, she happens to be very drunk. things, as they do, escalate.

Summary
Regina raises a stupid, perfectly-arched eyebrow. “Seven in the morning is ridiculous? Welcome to adulthood.”
“Oh, shut up,” Emma grumbles, employing an exorbitant amount of self-will to stop herself from stamping her foot against the ground like a child. “Just get on the treadmill.”
Regina glares. “Don’t tell me what to do.”
Emma realizes at this moment that this personal trainer situation is going to be much harder than she’d made it out to be. “Fine. Will you please get on the treadmill, Your Majesty?”
or, Regina starts going to the gym. Emma offers her services.

Summary
“They’re right behind us!” Namaari shouts out to you and to prove her point a whizzing bolt soars between you, nearly catching the alpha’s cheek. Another buzzes by your ear and has you instinctively ducking away from the noise. You need to find somewhere to lose them but all you’re seeing is the rocky barren terrain Tail is known for.
“Over there!” She suddenly exclaims and you look over to where she is nodding towards a dark hole between two massive rock walls. Every instinct is telling you not to go in there, that there are too many unknowns and risks to chance it but then another bolt flies by your face and you guide Tuktuk through the gap against your better judgment.
~ Or ~
Namaari and Raya looking for Sisu together and the events that follow with a dash of ABO thrown into the mix.

why yes, it is indeed another s3 fix-it in where regina rightfully shows up in new york instead of our one-handed wonderless pirate.
cue the essentials - flirting without knowing it, idiots who think this is just friendly behavior, a disgruntled monkey man and a confused af henry, suspicious potions, and our lovely ladies finding home together.
(eventually. it takes a bit. they're both a little slow. we don't blame them though. trauma is a bitch)Bookmarked by Xerxusitabulum
