    Summary

    “Please,” Lena says, shrugging her shoulders. “You know you’re my favourite. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. You’re my favourite. You’re acting like this is brand new information.”

    And that's—

    Wow. To hear Lena say this, to know that this still holds true even after everything that has happened… Kara flushes. She fiddles with her belt, exhales softly.

    or Lena is a terrible enabler. Kara wants anything and everything Lena will give her, and underneath the weight of such gentle, earnest warmth, it keeps escaping Kara why that is dangerous.

    Summary

    “Help me understand,” Kara says. “Are you saying everyone falls in love with their best friend?”

    “I’m saying that queer women have a special affinity for it,” Lena repeats, fishing the cherry out of the bottom of her drink. “The whole ‘falling for your straight best friend’ is basically a rite of passage.”

    “Says who?”

    “Everyone.” She puts the cherry in her mouth, bites it off the stem. “The L Word was like, built on the premise that a friend group of queer woman in LA dated each other in some sort of terrible repeating circle for, god, however many seasons that went on. And it’s been my experience that when two people are attracted to each other, and they’re close, feelings are likely to develop.”

    “That’s just, I mean, come on.” Kara’s cheeks are a little pink. “A trope and a tv show? That’s your evidence?”

    “So you’ve never been in love with your best friend?” Lena looks down at her empty glass.

    “No!” Kara sounds affronted. “No, I have never been in love with my best friend.”

    Or, A love story, told in three acts.

    Summary

    When later asked, Kara will vehemently insist that she is not, nor has she ever been, a sugar baby.

    She just happens to be in the position to accept extravagant gifts and money from a wealthy CEO in exchange for certain acts of physical and emotional intimacy. But! That does not make her a sugar baby, okay? It makes her a friend. A great one, actually, and the only one Lena Luthor has likely ever had.

    Summary

    The virtual research assistant at Kara’s cushy new Luthorcorp job is weirdly responsive, and surprisingly cheeky, and—did she just wink at her?

    (In which Kara absolutely definitely does not flirt with a computer program. Nope.)

    Summary

    Kara isn’t dating. Lena isn’t dating. Kara and Lena try not dating each other. Even if the lines start to blur a little. Even if they do the most girlfriend things.

    They won’t.

    Or: Everyone is convinced that they’re dating. Kara drunkenly makes out with her best friend one day. Lena doesn’t make a big deal out of it. So why should Kara?
