    Takes place after the season two finale.

    Waverly and Nicole have largely resolved the tension surrounding a few of their actions, (some long since, and others only recently passed), but a few things linger.

    Summary

    The brunette standing next to Kara while she waits for her coffee might just be the most beautiful woman to ever exist. Kara feels more than a little nervous about it, the fact that this absolute goddess with silk-soft dark hair and the sharpest jawline she’s ever seen is just three feet away from her. She really hopes there are no other aliens with super-senses in this café to bear witness to how fast her heart is beating right now, but really, it isn’t her fault if this woman, with her crimson red lips and pristinely ironed pencil skirt, makes Kara feel like her brain might just short-circuit.

    She’s pretty sure everyone else in the shop must feel the same way.

    or

    the one where lena and kara meet at a coffeeshop and hit it off but kara loses her number. based off the tweet that was like 'my dad met my mom for a second, lost her number, remembered she was a nurse, and then called every hospital in the state to ask her out and I can’t even get a text back'

    For al the times you wished you'd asked that girl at the coffee shop for her number.

    Summary

    Bobby Jones has never had much success in life.

    He's spent most of his twenty eight years struggling, and he can’t think of a moment where he really felt like he achieved something that mattered. But as he looks in his rear view mirror and sees the bloody, crumpled form of Supergirl in his back seat, he feels it. Fuck yeah he feels it.

    This is gonna matter.

    Summary

    I will definitely, absolutely, not have a panic attack.

    I am Susan Gilbert-Dickinson. I graduated from Northeastern with honors. I am a respected and well-utilized literary editor. Perhaps not the best but I do good work. My clothes are from middle tier designers, my handwriting is legible. I am always early for appointments. People leave me favorable reviews. 

    I will definitely, absolutely, not have a panic attack in this Hampton Inn even though Emily Dickinson, my sister-in-law and the love of my life, just walked through the double doors.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "I would have written this as a romantic story if it were."

     


    I find myself gutted thinking about the real two caught in the circumstances of their time and how they have become timeless. I think about Emily, forever in love with a woman who came to share her last name but not in the way every bit of her must have wished. Who had her Sue in so many significant ways and never not once in public. To constantly brim with the set your soul on fire kind of words and let almost all of them burn away into nothing or committed to paper and put away. I think about Sue sharing the bed and hearth of the brother, waking and dreaming during the day and dreaming during the night and longing longing longing and rinse repeat rinse repeat.

     


    I don't find them tragic. I just feel... a lot of feelings about them.

     


    Thinking about them makes me hope for do-overs, too. Maybe in the next life or the next.
