Summary
Carmilla decides to move across the country on a whim and forges a totally platonic note-passing relationship with her neighbor.
Or: Carmilla and Laura both have kitchen windows, and these windows happen to be face to face and right up against each other. Carmilla is a shit cook and Laura takes notice, note posting ensues, a bond is formed, we realize that neither of them have any chill, mild angst occurs and is immediately remedied, and the gays bone.
A fantastic read, truly.
Title is taken from the Now, Now song of the same name, it's a banger.
This is also lowkey inspired by that video where Natasha puts on a Midwestern Mom accent. No shame.

Summary
The Dew Tour is one of the biggest action sport competitions in North America. Laura Hollis never thought that she would get the chance to watch the competition in person, let alone actually be one of the competitors. She also didn't think that she would meet a flirty skateboarder and maybe sort of kinda fall for her.
Also, this is more about Hollstein than it is sport things, just saying.

Summary
Kara can see a rocky outcropping housing a large cave, a bubbling stream, and a woman sitting with her feet in the water. Her mouth is moving in a perfect match to the uneven song. Her back is facing Kara, and Kara can hardly see any of her features on account of there being two large wings in the way.
Well. The wings are…unexpected.
Strangely though, the fact that this woman has wings is not the thing that pulls at Kara’s attention the most. This close, Kara can better hear the intricacies in her mournful, tuneless melody. The warm, colourful pockets of imperfection in her voice. Kara wants to nestle into them and just listen, on and on until the end of time.
"Beautiful," Kara whispers, the words leaving her without a thought.
The song ends in a discordant screech.

A sailor finds a siren who can't sing.

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
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
“Are we… are we okay?”
“We’re stuck in a nuclear apocalypse, likely a result of my father’s gross negligence, and now used as a playground for an egomaniac’s deranged, power fantasies.”
“Lena.” Her name is a slow sigh. A patient, painstakingly fragile one at that.
Lena closes her eyes, inhaling against the torrent of emotions fighting towards a surface she’s not ready to break.
“Us being stuck here together doesn’t change anything.”
---
Or, Kara and Lena find themselves stranded on a barren Earth where they are forced to work together to survive and finally confront the toxic wasteland their relationship has become.
