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
“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
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.
