Awakening (Kara character study, small part supercorp softness)
“But why can’t I be matched to Tali, mom? She’s my best friend!”
Alura turned to Kara, her jaw tensed with frustration with the stubborn child. “Kara, you know better than this. Stable matching can only be achieved if there is a true bijection between disjoint sets-”
“We don’t even have a true bijection because the population is constantly changing, we don’t sort according to all possible preferences, we don’t even have-” “It is not in our nature, Kara,” Alura said, with a dangerous tone in her voice. “We are not Daxamites.”
“But-” 
“The answer is no.”
---
Kara is thirteen Earth years the first time she’s called “dyke.” She doesn’t know what it means. She had only been to school for a couple of weeks. Before that, the only substantial English she had spoken was the couple months with Eliza, Jeremiah, Alex, and Kal. 
Clark, not Kal. Saying “Kal” would put her baby cousin- her older cousin- her cousin in danger.
Alex’s face flushes, and her eyes almost burn with anger, as she shoves Jake Howell against a locker. Kara could do it easily herself, but showing her newfound strength to humans would put her in danger too, somehow. Kara doesn’t think asshole is a nice word, given how Alex growled it. But she suspects dyke isn’t a nice word either.
That night after dinner, Eliza sighs, and hugs Kara gently - and Kara resolves to never get called dyke again.
---
“She’s gorgeous, she’s smart, she smells nice. Hell, I want to date her.” Kara flushed with discomfort, as the words came unbidden from her lips. But Alex didn’t remark on the odd statement, and Kara shoved the thought away.
Just weeks later, awkwardness would turn to tension as Lucy growled. “You and Hank, why do you all lie?”
“When you are an alien,” Kara choked, “You’re willing to sacrifice anything, everything, betray your fundamental instincts - just to fit in.” Something tugged in Kara’s soul at that moment. That she had always tried to fit in, long before she became an alien. But there simply hadn’t been time to linger.
It was only weeks later, when Lucy was saying her goodbyes before leaving National City to rejoin the military, that Kara felt the uncomfortable spike again. “I do know what it’s like to hide,” Lucy confessed.
Kara tilted her head, questions like why? and what do you mean? floating through her mind. But she thought it would be kinder not to ask. “I hope someday, you can be all that you are.”
Lucy gave a small smile. “Me too.”
---
She hadn’t expected meeting Lena to feel like lightning in her veins. The younger Luthor was quick-witted, and beautiful, and playful. Kara felt herself flush with the gentle teasing during their first coffee, and found herself marveling at never quite having a friendship like this before. 
---
“So… so she’s gay?” Kara asked, the word heavy in her throat. “And are you saying, you’re gay too?”
Alex sighed and paced in front of Kara, her frustration just as apparent as her confusion. How can you not know if you’re gay?, Kara wondered, at the same time feeling strangely allergic to the conversation. Wouldn’t it be obvious? “What’s changed?” Kara asked.
---
Yeah, he was… immature. Irresponsible. But they connected - orphans of a lost planet, who spoke the same tongue, who had the same bewilderment in their first moments on an alien planet with newfound powers. And if being in his bed brought her pleasure, it was only proof of their connection, that a good relationship could come of it.
Sometimes there were those flashes - Mon-El had been confused by Alex’s coming out, not understanding the concept. The more the merrier would ring in Kara’s head, and she’d chase away the image of Lena’s face.
---
“I couldn’t have done it, Kara.”
Kara’s chest heaved as she gazed down at Lena, hearing Kal’s words flash through her mind. Lena clung to Kara’s arm as Kara hovered above the reservoir, and some corner of Kara’s mind knew that she should go land, that the danger was over. That Lena was safe. That the city was safe.
But she could only stare down at Lena, whose heart hammered in her chest, whose panting breaths from her climb had not yet slowed. I almost lost her, Kara thought, forlorn. I couldn’t lose her…
It was that moment that her world came crashing down, that realization made her feel like she was drowning. That romantic love wasn’t merely a combination of friendship and lust. That shared experience didn’t mean a shared connection. There was something that ran deeper.
She was in love with Lena, and she could no longer deny it.
---
It was a drunken movie night, after Lena’s breakup with James, when Kara heard I love you fall from Lena's lips.
“It was always you,” Lena confessed, her words slightly slurred from the alcohol as Kara finished pulling the covers over her. “I just wanted to be close to you.”
Kara stood back, feeling her heart pound as she watched Lena slip into slumber. I wish I had told you, Kara thought, her mind flashing to a moment long ago in a forest. I wish I had told you, before…
Kara spent a fitful night trying to sleep on her couch, and Lena’s eyes flashed with shame the next morning as she woke. But they left for Noonan’s, leaving the conversation behind.
---
It felt impossibly brief, that window of time after Kara had revealed her secret, where everything felt almost right with the world. Maybe someday, she and Lena could finish that conversation.
But she found herself in a kryptonite shell.
The universe ended soon after, and even magic couldn’t fix how they had broken. Until the day Kara finally found her hands in Lena’s, vowing together to take down her brother, and Kara felt again that hopeful wonder of what a future with Lena could hold.
And then she found herself in the Phantom Zone again, the words ringing in her head, I wish I had told you.
---
Sleep had eluded Kara in the weeks back from the Phantom Zone. So she was already wide awake at 2am, when she heard Lena’s heart begin to hammer. 
Kara tensed, rushing to her window and ears tuning in as she prepared to fight off an assassination attempt or catch Lena as she fell.
But as she shot into the sky, she nearly tumbled when she realized that Lena wasn’t in distress. The shaky breaths and small laughs caused Kara’s chest to tighten in anguish. She’s fine, Kara thought, feeling tears prick the edges of her vision. She’s fine. 
---
“Are you okay?” Lena said, when she finally found Kara in the Tower, sitting on a step. “Alex said she couldn’t find you - you were in the Fortress?”
Kara glanced up from the steps. “I just, um. I was reading in the Fortress, I fell asleep there.” It had the benefit of being true. The Fortress was far enough to drown the sound of Lena’s heart out.
Lena shuffled next to Kara, taking a seat. “I don’t remember seeing any beds there.”
“I float in my sleep,” Kara shrugged, staring at her hands as she let silence fall.
Lena shifted, uncomfortable with the quiet. “Are you okay?”
Yeah, Kara almost said, but something stopped her this time. Perhaps it was the poor sleep. Perhaps it was the litany of I wish I had told you that would replay in her mind.
How many more times am I going to do this?, Kara thought. How many more times am I going to carry that regret? “I love you,” Kara said finally, sensing Lena tense up next to her. “I know… I know that door is closed. But I love you. I should’ve told you so long ago.”
“You… you heard me last night,” Lena wondered softly. “So you went to the Fortress?”
Kara grimaced. “I stopped listening as soon as I realized,” Kara said, fighting a panic. Will she be angry? “I never meant to- to invade your privacy. I’ll be more careful.”
“The door isn’t closed,” Lena said. “If you don’t want it to be.”
Those words made Kara brave enough - or maybe just confused enough - to finally tilt her head up to meet Lena’s gaze. “But- last night-”
“I’ve been trying to get over you. Not very successfully,” Lena added, with a wry grin.
“Really?” Kara smiled.
“Really.” 
---
The matching laws had been long dismantled by the time a smiling Alura officiated their marital rites. Kryptonians didn’t have concepts like best man or matron of honor, but that didn’t stop the two women from inviting Alex and Kelly to stand at each of their sides as they said their vows.
Kara never imagined that it’d be a woman’s wrist she’d place her wedding bracelet on. Though she supposed she never imagined marrying on an asteroid of her father’s creation, or marrying for romantic love, or marrying someone her people would call Hero of Argo for the creation of a black rock.
She never imagined finally telling Lena her secret. She never imagined Lena’s forgiveness. She never imagined the feel of Lena’s lips pressed against her own, hands tugging at her robes, as she whispered zhao against Lena’s lips.
And she never imagined being the one to make Lena’s heart race.

----------
[Daxam after the explosion of Krypton]
Someone woke you up, and you were confused when you saw the fear in the eyes of your maid. "What's happening?" She didn't have the time to reply when you both heard screams and cries. She took your hand and dragged you out of the castle.
"Ms. Y/n, Krypton exploded, and it is falling on Daxam. I need to make sure you can escape." She found a Kryptonian pod and pushed you in.
"No, Abbie, I don't want to leave you." You started to cry, "Come with me, please." You plead, but she shook her head.
"You're the princess of Daxam, miss. You have to go and survive." She hugged you and apologized, "I'm sorry, Y/N." She was crying as well.
"You can't leave me. I need you, and mom, and dad and my brother" she brushed her thumb on your cheek to calm you down, "and I'm only 5, I'll not survive without you. Please Abbie" you plead again.
"I already put data in it; it'll bring you to a planet called Earth," she kissed your forehead before starting the pod. "Don't forget, miss, you're a princess; act like one," she said as she placed her hand on the window, and you reciprocated: "Good luck, miss Y/N."
You were flying into space without saying anything.The journey should have been quick, but your pod collided with an asteroid, sending you to the phantom zone.You are imprisoned for the next 27 years before miraculously escaping.
[Earth, a town near Metropolis]
When you landed on Earth, Clark was already Superman. He found your pod when you lend and helped you, and because of him, you found a new home in this new world. The (y/l/n)s were good parents; they always wanted a new child, so when the Superman asked for their assistance, they couldn't say no.
The first years were difficult, you missed your family and Abbie too. But fortunately, you were glad to have a new big brother who was a jerk but not a Don Juan and a big sister who was always here when you needed her.
After a few years and many late-night conversations with your sister, Jessy, you decide to live a life that makes you proud. Since this moment, you were not the princess of Daxam; you were just Y/n Y/l/n, daughter of James and Kathryn (Y/l/n), and the little sister of Mike and Jessy. It was all you needed, at least before you went to high school. You met her there; she was stunning and beautiful; you couldn't count how many times you were lost in her green eyes, and her black hair, which contrasted nicely with her pale skin, was also quite nice.Her name: Lena Luthor.
After taking some advice from your friends and your siblings, you asked her out, and she accepted. You started dating one month after your first date, and three years later you married her. With her job at Luthor Corp and your job at Daily Planet, you almost have time to spend together, but you decided to have a child, you carried her, and it was the most beautiful thing in your life after Lena.Her name was Lilly; you thought it was a pretty name, and it was the minimum for your pretty princess.
Time flies, Lex has gone insane just after you and Lilly move to National City. Lois found you a job at Catco where you could work less and spend more time with your daughter. Unfortunately, that means you were not here when Lex tied your wife to a chair in his office and threatened to kill you. She was aware of your past and the fact that you were a daxamite, but she didn't mind; all she cared about was the fact that you adored her and Lilly above all else.
[Present]
It's been a while now since Lena came to Central City, and you will not lie; you were pretty glad. Lilly loves you, but she missed her other mom too. Today you decided to have lunch with your wife, and you brought your daughter. It was a little surprise to Lena, but it was a surprise for you when you knocked and opened the door to find an older woman with your wife. She looked familiar, but you couldn't tell where you saw her.
The little girl didn't hesitate and rushed to her mom to greet her with a hug, and the green-eyed woman picked her up. "Hi little princess, I missed you," she cooed, and you smiled at the interaction. She looked at you and seemed to recall something, so she cleared her throat and came to a halt beside you, kissing you and saying, "Rhea, this is my wife, and Lilly is our daughter."She introduced you. "Y/n, this is Rhea. She asked for my help on a new project." She explained, and you nodded.
You offered your hand at Reah, and she shook it. "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Rhea; I hope she'll not bother you too much," you joked, and your wife punched your shoulder. "You know that doesn't hurt me, honey," you said, and Lena rolled her eyes.
"Mommy, I'm hungry." Lilly said.
"Oh, I think it's my clue to leave." The older brunette said,
"No, you can stay and eat with us." You offered.
"Oh no, I don't want to ruin a mother-daughter moment," she said, and she pocked the cheek of the little girl, who giggled,
"You don't ruin anything, Rhea." Lena said this time,
"Don't worry, there is someone who wait for me too," she said before walking to the door. "I'll see you soon, Lena." The three of you waved your hands, and she left.
"I like her," you said. "I just hope this new project will not take all your time."
The CEO kissed your cheek this time "I promise. Now let's go to eat."
~~~~~~
After your first meeting with Rhea, the woman was always here when you visited L-Corp. It was not really bothering, she was pretty good with your daughter, and Luly seems to like her too. You were waiting for your wife that night, and you were reading a bedtime story to your little princess when she said something that caught your attention: "Mama, Mrs. Rhea, look like you." You stopped reading the story and looked at her,
"What do you mean, princess?" you asked softly,
"Yeah, she looks like you, and she looks like Mike too." You frowned your brows; you hadn't met Mike, Kara's new friend, yet. Lilly and Lena liked to say you had some common point with him, but you didn't know him. "Do you think she's from Da-Dax..." She searched for the right word, and it was cute to look at.
"Daxam, baby girl. And I don't know; I almost forgot everything about it. It's been a while you know." She nodded, "Now it's time to sleep, little princess. Tomorrow we will go to the carnival with mommy," you said, and she was so excited.
You left her bedroom when you were sure she was sleeping. You looked at the time and noticed it was late, and Lena didn't reply to your texts or your calls. You thought for a moment before calling Alex. "Hey Alex," you said when she answered the phone,
"Hey Y/n, it's late. Aren't you supposed to sleep?" She worriedly asked.
You groan "You're such a mom." And she laughed "do you know where is Lena? I tried to call her, but she didn't reply, and she didn't reply to my texts. I'm starting to worry." You admitted and you heard her sighed
"Y/N, we have a problem," she said, and you started to worry about your wife "We think she has been trapped and kidnapped by Mike's mom. But don't worry, Kara is on it."
"Where are you?" A wave of rage begins to wash over you.Alex told you where she was, you called Jessy, and she took Lilly with her for the night before you almost flew to where your friends was. When you reached the older Danvers, she was in front of a portal. She told you Kara was on the other side, and you didn't hesitate to run after her.
On the ship, you found Kara, Mike, Rhea, and an angry Superman. "What the hell?" you yelled, and every gaze was on you. "why Clark look like he's in front of a bad guy?" you asked, and the black-haired Kryptonian walked to you before he was stopped by Kara. You looked at Rhea and said, "You. Where is my wife?" You asked
"What Lena is your wife?" Mon-el said, and you focused on him.
"I saw you somewhere," you said, and some flashes from your childhood started to run in your mind. "Mon-el?" you asked, and you tilted your head. "But how? You were supposed to be dead when Krypton fell on Daxam." You were more than confused. He was about to reply when Rhea attacked you with a dagger made of lead. Thanks to your training with Clark, you successfully dodged it and attacked her back.
"Who are you?" the man  asked you.
"I'm Y/n, princess of Daxam," you said, and the room froze at your confession.
"Wait, Y/n like--" your brother wanted to say something, but Rhea cut him off,
"It's impossible," she said."My daughter died, Krypton took me my daughter," she explained, and now everything makes sense—the familiar look, the fact that Lena and Lilly always say you look like both of them.
"Mother?" you asked, and you didn't trust what you said. All this time, you thought you were the only one who survived. "But how should you be dead, both of you?" you asked, as tears streamed down your cheeks. "Wait, if you're both alive, that's mean father and Abbie too." At your sentence, Rhea was hit by a wave of guilt. Mon-El looked at her and didn't say anything.
She shook her head, and you cried harder. "I'm sorry," she whispered. "I'm really sorry." She kept repeating it as if it would make you stop, but it didn't. And honestly, neither of them could make you feel better. You wanted to yell at them because they didn't protect Abbie, but an alarm stopped you.
"What is this?" you asked, and a guard ran to where you were before stopping and panting,
"My queen, the humans... They sent lead into the atmosphere." he announced, and the three of you widen your eyes
"What?" You said, but you didn't wait for any response before leaving the ship—thankfully, it was on top of the building. When your feet were definitely on the ground, you started to run. You had to find Lilly; she can't be exposed to the lead. Even if she was half human, she would be affected by the lead.
[North Pole, Fortress of Solitude, a few minutes earlier]
After Lena crossed the portal, Luke closed it. "What are you doing?" the young Luthor asked, but her mom didn't look at her.
"We needed to get away, and we did. Now what happens to them? That's not our problem." Lillian said nonchalantly, "But we have another problem." She said, and her daughter tilted her head with confusion, "ThisRhea sent all her army to conquer us, but we can stop her." Her voice was cold and calm, but she was a little worried, even if she didn't let it show. She is attached to Lilly, and she can't imagine what they could do to her.
"And what are your plan?"Lena asked coldly.
"We know they're weak against lead; it's their kryptonite." She took a little box "Lex had planned to use this to diffuse kryptonite in the atmosphere to kill Superman, but if you change it, it could diffuse lead." She informed her,
"And why would I do that?" The CEO scuffed,
"Because we both know you have a reason who is 4 years old and could be in danger if they found her." Lillian said,
"But my wife is a daxamite too." Lena reminded her,
"Yeah, I know, and I have something that could help her not be affected." She said casually, "So?"
Lena examined her mother and the cyborg beside her "deal."She said it quietly but enough to be heard by her mom, who now had a smile on her face.
Only a few minutes later, your genius wife finished the modification and activated the device.
[National City, present]
You knocked on the door of Jessy's apartment, she opened quickly and inspected you before leading you to her sofa. "What happened to you? Where is Lena?" she asked, afraid of your condition.
"Someone diffuses lead in the—" you coughed, "atmosphere," you finished, coughing.
"Wait who? And why?" Your sister asked,
"I don't know, but I need to contact Lena. Lilly will be affected by the lead, and she's the only one who could help us." You declared, Jess wanted to say something, but her phone rang; it was Lena.
"Lena, where are you?... what? Yeah, she's with me ... Right now? Okay, she's with me too, in my apartment... Yeah see you soon." she hangs on and turned to you "it was Lena she's in her way to come here. She'll be here soon. You should rest. I'll bring you water," she said as she walked to the kitchen.
You walked to Jessy's room and opened the door. You saw Lilly. She was sleeping, but suddenly she started to cough and was now awake. You took her in your arms and made your way back to the living room. Jessy came back and gave you both a glass of water. It's been more than twenty years now since you were on earth, so you knew you could stay a little longer, but you were worried for Lilly. Fortunately, Lena didn't make you wait too long.
You heard a knock on the door, and your big sis opened it. She smiled when she saw Lena, but her smile disappeared when she saw the woman behind her. "Oh Lillian, what a surprise." she said coldly, but let them step inside.
When you saw the familiar green eyes you were relieved and then you saw your mother-in-law, you suppressed a caught "Mother-in-law." you greeted her
"Daughter-in-law" She greeted you back, "You seemed more alive the last time I saw you," she joked, and you chuckled,
"Granny Lillian." Lilly greeted her, and the older Luthor's heart almost dropped when she heard the voice of her granddaughter.
"Hey princess, did you catch a cold?" Lena asked when she noticed her daughter's condition.
"No, someone diffused lead in the atmosphere," you replied, and the youngest Luthor coughed against your chest. "Hey, it's okay, Princess," you ran your hand through her hair. "Mommy is here; she'll find a way to help you." you whispered loudly against her temple.
Lena covered her mouth with her hands. It couldn't be real. Her baby girl shouldn't be affected by the lead, she's human too. Lillian noticed and decided to speak, "We have something that could help her." She informed you.
You didn't have to think too long about it, you understood they couldn't save both of you. "Hey princess, do you want to show the gift uncle Mike gave you to your granny?" You asked softly, and she nodded before getting up and walking to her bedroom. You started to walk to the kitchen and made eye contact with your wife. She got the hint and followed you.
"I'm sorry," she barely said between sobs.
"Hey, darling... *cough*... it's okay. You'll help Lilly, and I'm sure you'll find a solution for me after that." You kissed her forehead gently.
"I was not talking about this," she admitted. You didn't say anything; you just studied her eyes.
"It was you?" You asked her, and she nodded. She was crying harder, and you locked her between your arms. She could hear your heartbeats, but they were so ecstatic she couldn't feel safe, "I know why you did that." You whispered, and you ran a hand through her hair, "I'm not angry or anything, Lena. Just promise me you'll do anything to heal Lilly." She gently drew back and locked her gaze on yours.You only saw sadness and fear in her eyes, and it was killing you.
"I promise. But we have to do something for you." She replied, and you smiled softly.
"It's okay, my queen; I'm sure Superman and Supergirl won't mind if I stay in the fortress for a while." You tried to reassure her, or you. You didn't really know, but you can't let her feel bad for something she couldn't control. "I'm okay, Lena, I promise."
Jessy came in the kitchen, and you looked at her. "Lilly is feeling better now." She informed you, and Lena was relieved. You wanted to rush to your baby girl and take her in your arms, but you fell to the ground.
When you awoke, you were in the fortress. You could feel the lead in your lungs, but the pain slowly went away. You looked around and noticed a floating robot."Good morning, Mrs. Y/l/n-Luthor, I'm Kelex," he said.
"Oh, nice to meet you, Kelex." You looked around. "We are in the fortress, right?" you asked.
"That's right. Supergirl brought you here after you collapsed in your sister's apartment," he explained.
"Oh," was all you could say."Do you know where the others are?" you asked.
"They were back in National City. But you can't see them right now." he said, and you looked confused. "The atmosphere is not totally free of lead. You must stay here, safe," he explained.
"Do you know until when?" you asked, a little saddened by the revelation.
"We don't know, but don't worry, I'll let Mrs. Luthor and Kara know you're awake. They could come to see you during your time here." he said, and you nodded.
"Okay, it'll be fun. At least, I hope," you muttered.

Summary: Alternate versions of Superman and Supergirl crash into the Emoverse (Earth-1386)
Notes: Alternate Kal El is portrayed by Tyler Hoechlin and Kara Zor El is portrayed by Sasha Calle. There is zero explanation why Derek and Kal look alike. If you have any questions @swifteforeverandalways and will happily answer
Warnings: Panic attacks, mention of torture, mention of sexual assault, a werewolf is hit while in wolf form, homophobia. Mention of incest but no actual incest
"Listen up, the Watchtower picked up two foreign figures falling from the sky and crashing near Smallville" Bruce, geared up on his Batman suit except for his mask flipped through a tablet.
"Friendly or not?" Kara asked. "Not sure yet, Starfire is looking for any wormholes just in case, Jason and Roy are ready to arrest them if needed" Diana said. Kara nodded, though she looked apprehensive.
"Could they be Kryptonian?" Clark asked. “I thought you guys were the last of the Kryptonians,” Mon-El said.
"As far as we know, Daxam was close to Krypton but a lot of you and your people survived"
“Let’s go,” Bruce said, picking up his mask. Diana readied her Invisible Jet for Oliver. "Dinah, can you and Barry watch the Tower until we get back?"
“Of course,” Dinah said with a nod. Barry whined but sat down at the computer. "Let's go" Wonder Woman grabbed Batman and flew off. Superman and Supergirl close behind them.
“So Bruce, how’s Kate been? Haven’t seen her in forever?” Kara shouted to pass the time. "She's in Chicago with her girlfriend"
"Which one?" Kara teased. "Small talk later guys" Green Arrow said. Clark and Kara landed hard.
They looked around. "Clark!" Kara yelled, running to two unconscious figures. Clark followed her.
Kara knelt down, Mon-El landing quietly by her. Clark looked at the male laying in a fetal position, fear in his face, eyes closed tightly. He tried to unravel the man.
"Clark" Kara gasped, turning the female over, the black suit she was wearing almost an exact replica of the one Kara herself was wearing, the House of El symbol on the chest.
Mon-El looked shocked. "What the hell?" Clark said.
"We need to get them to SHIELD" Kara picked the female up. Mon-El helped with the male. "He kind of looks like Jade's werewolf friend"
“He does,” Kara agreed.
-----
Kara watched over the girl, wondering who she was. They had to cut the suits off the pair, dressing them in hospital scrubs until they woke up. "What if they are from our family? Kal was so young...."
She shook her head, rubbing a hand over her face.
The girl shot awake, gasping in shock. "What the fuck?!" She ripped the medical equipment off of her, Kara and Mon-El running in. "Get away from me!"
“Whoa whoa, we’re trying to help you!” Kara said. "Oh I've been helped before sweetheart" She shook in pure anger, eyes glowing red. "Where's Kal?! I swear to Ra if you hurt him!"
“What do you know about my cousin?” Kara demanded.
"Your cousin?! My name is Kara Zor El, and I'm not going to lose him!" She shoved Kara into the nearest wall. "Kal!"
“Mon-El, run!” Kara yelled. He followed the other Kara. She listened for his heartbeat, yelling in anger. "Kal!" She bolted into an empty room, finding him sleeping in a hospital bed. "Kal, wake up"
“Why do you keep saying his name is Kal?” Mon-El called. She ignored him. Kal woke up with a groan. "Kara?" "I'm here" She whispered.
Mon-El crossed his arms against his chest, watching the scene. Kal began to panic when he saw what he was wearing. "No no no no"
“Shh, shhh,” the other Kara whispered. She hugged him close. "They won't hurt us again"
Mon-El inched towards the button to alert security. Kara sped over and grabbed him by his throat.
“Who are you! Where are we!” She yelled. She slammed him down to the ground, Kal knelt by Mon-El. "You might want to tell her, we're not always in a good mood"
Mon-El nodded hastily. "You're safe here, I swear" Kal punched the ground near Mon-El's face.
“Where are we?!” He screamed. Diana wrapped her lasso of truth around Kal's neck, pulling him to the ground. Kara grabbed Mon-El by his throat. "Let my cousin go or I'll snap his neck"
“She’s not bluffing,” Kal said. "Who are you?" The lasso glowed. "My name is Kal El, that's my cousin Kara Zor El, and if you don't let us go I will burn this fucking place to the ground" He growled.
“He’s telling the truth,” Diana said in shock. "Let me go. Now"
Diana released her lasso.
Kara threw Mon-El unceremoniously to the ground. "You're safe here, I promise"
"Shut up!" Kara screamed, activating her heat vision.
Diana pulled out her shield and jumped in front of Mon-El. The pair ran. "Superman! Supergirl!"
“Shit!” Diana yanked out her phone.
Kal and Kara ran into their counterparts. "This doesn't have to end in a fight" Clark said. "Yeah, let's be reasonable" Kara said
"Oh, this is us being reasonable" Kal said, scowling with absolute hatred. He threw a punch.
Clark caught it and tried to headbutt him. Kal shook the pain away and flew up just a bit and headbutted Clark with all his strength, knocking him to the ground.
A blade whizzed through the air, landing next to Kal. "The fuck?"
“Now, how about we all calm the fuck on down,” Jade said. "You don't know what we've been through" Kara said painfully. "We won't let you hurt us again!" Her and Kal flew off.
“Who the fuck were they?” Jade spun to look at Clark and Kara. Clark rolled onto his side. "They said their names are Kal El and Kara Zor El"
“But. But you two…..” Jade shook her head. "I'm not here to help completely but Diana called me about this" He pulled out a vial of Kryptonite. "Use this only if absolutely necessary"
Everyone looked at it. Oliver took it. "I could coat two of my arrows in it" “We aren’t killing them,” Jade said.
"Just in case" Bruce said. "They were scared" Kara said. “Which is why we shouldn’t kill them,” Jade insisted.
"I can try and track them down" Clark said. "Before they get hurt or hurt anyone"
“Do it,” Jade said. “I’ll update SHIELD.” "Thank you" Diana gripped her shoulder. Jade pulled Diana into a hug.
-----
Kara and Kal crashed near the Fortress of Solitude. They looked around. Kara ran her hand over the ice. "Home" She whispered.
Kal placed a hand on her shoulder. "Do you think Lex Luthor sent us here? We were about to crash his plane"
"If he did, I'll kill him myself" “Kal, where are we?” Kara said quietly.
"I don't know but they won't hurt us" “Those other two….the two claiming to….to be us….”
"I'll kill them too" “How….why were they claiming to be us?” "They don't deserve to even look at our house symbol"
Kara sighed and hugged him from behind. He gave her a gentle smile. "We've already been through the worst thing that could've happened to us"
"I know" Kara whimpered in pain. Kal hugged her tightly. "Maybe we should ask for their help" "Should we?'
"If we explain to them why we got scared" "Fine" They flew off. "Superman!" Kal yelled.
Clark exited, Kara following. “Are you two finally done running away?” Clark asked warily.
"We need to talk" Kara said. Kal nodded. "Follow us" "Please tell me you have our suits, we need to get out of these before I have a panic attack"
“We have them in safe keeping,” Bobbi said, walking up. Kal and Kara ran off, coming back in seconds with their black suits on. "We don't trust humans"
“Yeah well, not everyone here is human,” Clark said.
"He is" Kara pointed at Oliver. "And him too" She then pointed at Bruce. "When we came to Earth, we landed near a lab. They took us..." Kal said. "They tortured us, took our blood, cut our hair, experimented on us until we couldn't even remember what it felt like to not be in constant pain"
“Have you ever heard of the multiverse?” Bobbi asked. "It's a concept in our world" “It’s real. You aren’t on your Earth anymore.”
"Doesn't mean we have to trust you" Kal growled. "The hospital, you were acting out of fear" Mon-El said.
“You had us in an unfamiliar room!” Kal yelled. "Wearing this!" Kal ripped the scrubs. “Wow, you look even more like Derek now,” Bobbi muttered. "Who?"
“My mother-in-law’s bodyguard. He’s a werewolf.” "Your earth is weird" "Not really...."
"Just help us get back to our Earth so I can strangle Lex Luthor" “Ugh, your Earth has one too?” Clark scowled.
"And his sister, who I killed after she almost killed Kal" “God, it sounds like Lena is a bitch on every Earth,” Bobbi commented.
"You can't just kill people" Diana said. “Di, that’s what Jade does,” Bobbi laughed. Kal growled. “Who is this ‘Jade’ you speak of?” He demanded. "My wife"
“Your…..wife?” "Yup, big ol lesbian" Diana snorted. “Jade certainly is,” she mused.
"Do you not have gay people on your Earth?" Kal and Kara exchanged a look.
"We really don't care about anyone but each other" "Is anyone else getting a incest vibe?" Barry blurted out.
“Or they are just like Pietro and Wanda,” Bobbi said. Oliver smacked the back of Barry's head. "Barry" He hissed.
"Just help us get home" "Of course" Kal soaked in the sun, his strength and color in his skin returning. Jade walked up.
"You really do remind me of Derek" “The werewolf?” Kal asked. "Yeah"
Kal scowled. He flew back down in front of her. "I'm so sorry about what happened to you"
“What do you care?” "Because I care about people unless they hurt my family, I can see that's how you are with Kara"
Kal stared at Jade for a long minute. "She's my reason for living" “Yeah, I have one of those too,” Jade said softly, looking over at her wife.
"They tried to....hurt her.... sexually" Jade growled loudly at that. “Okay, what did you say to piss my wife off,” Bobbi said, walking up.
"Nope not mad at him, mad at the people who tortured them" Jade covered her eyes. Bobbi rubbed Jade’s shoulders.
"If they tried to do that to her, I'd volunteer in her place or kill them"
"I’ll help you kill all of them. Bastards who hurt people in….in that way,” Jade nearly trembled in anger.
"We already did, our powers grew strong enough, we killed everybody" “Good,” Jade said, green eyes like fire.
Clark landed with a sonic boom. "We might've found a frequency that belongs to your Earth" “What is your Earth like?” Jade asked Kal.
"Safe because we kill everyone" “Do…are there any other heroes?” "Uh, the Arrow, Frost, Blue Beetle, Bronze Tiger"
".....Arrow?" "I think his name is Roy?" “Harper? Damn, Ollie doesn’t exist in your universe,” Jade snickered. "At least my kid's still a hero!"
“What about our more New York based heroes? The Avengers and such?” Jade asked. "Who?" "What?" Kal and Kara said very confused.
“Nevermind,” Jade sighed. "We were tracking Lex Luthor because he had silver Kryptonite, if he used it on us he'd be able to control us"
“Dammit,” Clark swore before looking at Jade. “What about Outworlders? I know some kryptonites affect you guys. What about silver?” "Definitely not silver, mind shield" Jade tapped her head.
“If he tries to use it in her, I will put a bullet in his brain,” Bobbi said. Kal smirked.
“And everyone calls me the protective one,” Jade said. "You both are" Kara said, hugging her cousin.
“Do you want us to come with you guys?” Jade asked. "If he gets control of us, yes" "I’m down,” Jade grinned viscously.
-Smallville-
A black wolf bounded towards Jade, sniffling at her and then gawking at Kal.
“Yeah, I know,” Jade laughed, petting the wolf. Kal growled at the wolf, eyes turning red. The wolf growled back.
"Derek, can you turn human?" Bobbi asked, throwing a sweatshirt and sweatpants down. Derek grabbed the clothes between his teeth and trotted off.
He came back after a minute, shaking leaves out of his hair. “What the fuck?” He said, looking at Kal. ,
"I could say the same thing" Derek and Kal stared down each other. "Where's Stiles and Eli?" Derek looked over at Jade.
"They're safe with my sister, I don't trust Scott or my uncle" “Has Scott always been that whiny?” Jade asked.
"Yes" “And that’s why I don’t like men" Jade joked. "You don't like Scott" “He’s whiny.”
"I caught a scent of two Lex Luthors and Lena" Derek said. Hurt briefly crossed Kara’s face before she masked it.
"Kryptonite doesn't have a smell to it but it gave me a headache" “Could be your werewolf heritage, or perhaps because you are such an integral part of my mom’s guard,” Jade said. "Probably both"
“Where did you catch the scent?” Bobbi asked. Derek shifted, ripping the clothes and ran, Jade followed.
The others did too. Derek laid against the grass, growling quietly at Lex. "This is crazy, controlling alternate Superman and Supergirl is impossible!"
Lena crossed her arms against her chest. "I swore revenge on her and I intend to get it"
Derek snarled at that, having heard the history. His eyes turning their Alpha red.
The others stopped behind Derek. He made small growls at Jade, looking for permission.
Jade gave a slight nod. He roared and attacked one of the Lexs. The two Kara’s launched at Lena.
Kal attacked the other Lex. Jade stayed back briefly, merely watching the scene.
Barry slid to a stop by her. "Help Kal and Superman!"" She said. He nodded and ran. "Stupid dog!" Lex punched Derek. Jade pulled out a warfan and launched at that Lex. “Don’t fucking touch him!” She yelled.
Derek whined, Kal speeding over to stand protectively in front of him. Lex pulled out a pink stone and held it towards the three.
Jade snorted. “Is that pink kryptonite?” She asked.
"Yes! Why?" "That's not a lethal type of Kryptonite dumbass" Kal said. "Then what does it do?!"
“Apparently it turns people gay,” Jade snorted. "What?!" “It wouldn’t work on her anyways. She’s already a lesbo,” Lena called.
"Derek, attack Lena" Derek did so. He snarled at the lone female Luthor. "Love your dog Okaia" "He's actually an alpha werewolf bitch"
Lena punched Derek in the face. He whimpered in pain. There was the cocking of a gun before the barrel was placed against Lena’s head.
"You'd be smart to surrender. Now" Bobbi said.
Kal grabbed his Earth's Lex and snapped his neck. “You wouldn’t shoot me.”
Someone shot her in the thigh, sending her to the ground. Bobbi placed her gun back in it's place on her jacket. "I won't, his husband would though"
Stiles ran up, looking pissed. Derek whimpered in pain, Kal watching over him
“Derek!” Stiles ran to him. He knelt by the wolf and petted his head. "You gotta stop scaring the shit out of me sourwolf"
Derek barked out a laugh. "Come on" He helped him back up. Clark, meanwhile, held his Lex in a chokehold.
"Lex Luthor, you're under arrest for the illegal distribution of Kryptonite and animal abuse" Stiles said. "That thing is a werewolf!"
“And he’s also a highly valued member of the Outworld guard. Be lucky we do not inform my mother of your actions,” Jade snapped.
Derek growled and bit at him. Kal and Kara laughing at Lex's reaction. Stiles snapped handcuffs onto Lex before walking over to Lena.
"Lena Luthor, you're under arrest for illegal distribution of Kryptonite and cruelty against a supernatural creature, as well as an attack on a superhero"
“And for insulting my wife,” Bobbi grumbled. Jade hugged her side. "This is for bringing us here" Kara punched Lena.
“I trusted you, obviously that was a mistake,” Lena spat. The other Kara walked up. She gave Lena an unimpressed look.
Lena growled and aimed a gun with Kryptonite at her when she turned around but Kal jumped in front of her
“Leave her alone!” He shouted. Lena pulled the trigger, hitting him in the chest and sending him to the ground.
Bobbi pulled out her gun and shot Lena in the shoulder.
Lena cried out and collapsed. "Kal!" Kara yelled, cradling him in her arms, ripping the Kryptonite out even as it hurt her.
“Shit,” Clark swore. He ran to the pair. "I can't lose him, he's all I have left" Kara sobbed.
“What do we do?” Clark asked. Jade ran over. She pulled out a warfan. "Hold him down"
“What are you going to do to him!” Kara shouted. "Kara! You need to hold her!" Bruce ordered.
Kara grabbed the alternate her. Derek leapt over, using his paws to hold Kal down as best as he could.
Jade shot Derek a quick smile. "Kal, I'm going to cut the Kryptonite out okay? It'll hurt like a bitch but it'll save your life"
“Do it,” Kal said through gritted teeth. Kara collapsed in the other Kara's arms, sobbing quietly. Jade raised her fan and stabbed down.
Kal screamed out in pain. Derek shifted back to human, not caring that he was completely naked. He gripped Kal's wrist and took his pain away, black veils crawling up his arm.
Jade reached in, searching for the kryptonite bullet.
She found it, feeling the pain but gritting her teeth and pulling it out. "Oh that fucking hurts" Derek choked out.
Bobbi pulled out one of SHIELD’s containers, flipping it open. She picked it up and locked it inside. "Derek" Jade covered her eyes.
“Sorry,” Derek said sheepishly. "I like it!" Stiles teased. “Please shift back or get some clothes. I really don’t like seeing….that,” Jade said, making a motion to the lower half.
"Stiles, where's our kid? I'm not in a lot of pain or getting hit so now I'm gonna yell at you, where's Eli?"
Stiles rubbed the back of his head. Derek closed his eyes. "You left him with Cora"
“What?” Stiles asked innocently. "You're sleeping on the couch tonight" Derek shifted.
“Thank you,” Jade said, finally uncovering her eyes. Kara held Kal in her arms.
“So what’s going on between you two?” Barry asked, motioning between the two.
"Barry!" Dinah yelled at him. "I've seen Game of Thrones!" “Of course an alternate Kara would be sleeping with her cousin,” Lena sneered.
"Apparently you're not allowed to just be really close here" “Nah, Lena’s just a fucking bitch,” Jade said.
Clark helped Kal up. Derek nudged him with his head. "Thank you" Kal petted him. Derek nodded.
Bruce activated the portal back to their Earth. “You’re welcome to visit any time,” he told the two.
"Thank you" Kara said gratefully. Oliver handed her a device shaped like a phone. "Just press that and it'll transport you guys back here if we need help"
"How was that made?" "Mother box technology, basically we had Cyborg smash them and turn them into teleporters"
“Just call us anytime. We would be glad to help,” Jade said. "Sorry I choked you" Kara said to Mon-El.
"It's okay" Kara kissed his cheek, smiling warmly at him. Mon-El blushed. Kal glared at him. "What?"
The cousins grabbed each other's hand and jumped into the portal. The portal closed behind them.
"No more multiverse shit for the love of God!" Dinah yelled. “At least for a while,” Jade agreed.
Barry sat on the ground, looking at the stars. Kara walked over to Bruce. "Do you think there's a version of you where you didn't lose your parents?"
“Sometimes,” Bruce admitted. "Seeing them.... reminded me that Clark and I got lucky"
Bruce smiled slightly. “Thanks Kara. And I’ll make sure to let Kate know you want to hang out sometime.” Kara clapped her hands and squealed with excitement.
“I haven’t seen her in forever!” Bruce chuckled, looking at the sky.

Hey guys! So, today's my birthday, and I really wanted to post something on ao3 as a sort of gift to myself but unfortunately nothing's really ready to be posted yet. So here's an excerpt of "glass hearts", something I've been working on for a while :)
-
The sky is pitch-black when they finally arrive in National City and the Super Friends’ collective mood feels something similar. Despite the fact that their loved one has finally returned, the weight of the last few months sits heavily on their chests, or at least that’s how it seems to Mon-El. 
Kara is quieter than he’s ever seen her, glassy eyes staring blankly ahead as she sits under the glow of a sun lamp. He doesn’t think she even hears him enter the room. 
“Hey.” Mon-El crouches in front of her, gingerly taking her hand. “We’re here,” he tells her softly. Kara blinks a couple of times before her eyes drift over to his and she gives him a small nod of acknowledgment. 
Progress.
“Do you want to stay here for the night?” he ventures, reaching up to tuck a lock of hair behind her ear. “Or we can go home…”
Kara’s lips move silently, forming the word home as though it’s an alien concept she can’t quite comprehend. 
“...Kara?” Mon-El prompts gently.
“Yeah,” she whispers finally, voice cracking slightly. “Let’s go home.”
He helps her up, hand resting on the small of her back as they make their way out of the med bay. “Let’s go tell Alex we’re leaving, okay?”
Alex is sitting with her girlfriend when they reach the main room and stands to greet them. “Hey, you two.” She reaches out to rub Kara’s shoulder. “You thinking about heading home?”
“That alright with you?”
“Yeah, of course.” Alex ducks her head to meet Kara’s gaze. “Do you need me to stay over, or…?”
Kara shakes her head the slightest bit. “That’s okay,” she mumbles.
Alex nods, then leans forward and presses a gentle kiss to Kara’s cheek, as if she were not made of Kryptonian flesh but delicate glass, ready to shatter at any moment. “Get some rest, okay? I’m so happy you’re home.” 
Kara smiles faintly and after one last hug from Alex, they make their way to the balcony. Kara looks up at the night sky and then over at Mon-El, uncertain.
“I can carry you, if you’re tired,” he offers quickly and Kara nods, something like relief flashing in her eyes. 
The night air is cool on the way home and Mon-El can feel her shivering, hiding her face in his neck as wind whooshes by. They land in the living room and Kara steps away slightly, still holding onto him as her gaze roves over every inch of their apartment. 
“Happy to be home?” Mon-El asks gently and Kara turns back to him, eyes glazed with tears, and nods furiously. 
“Hey…” He wipes a tear from her cheek and pulls her to his chest, wrapping her in a tight hug. “It’s okay.” She hiccups against him and he feels the collar of his suit start to dampen with tears. 
After only a few seconds Kara jerks away, wiping her nose on her sleeve. “Can we just go to bed, please?” she whispers. 
Mon-El’s shoulders sag. “Of course.”
Kara sits on the edge of the bed and reaches behind to try and get her suit off, but her shaky fingers make the task difficult. After a few failed attempts, she huffs in frustration. 
“Do you want some help?” Mon-El asks hesitantly, reaching for the zipper. Kara gives up and nods, letting her arms drop. 
He helps her peel the suit off, trying not to flinch at how her skin is ice-cold to the touch. She shivers and he passes her some leggings and a warm sweater to sleep in before undressing himself. 
For a few moments they lie there in silence, side by side. Kara seems on edge, blankets clenched tightly in her fist, eyes darting around. 
“Kara.”
She turns to look at him and Mon-El scoots closer, reaching for her. “Come here.”
She curls into his waiting arms, resting her head on his chest. He feels her release a long-held breath, muscles finally relaxing. 
“Go to sleep,” he whispers and she nods against him. He tries to relax too, reminding himself that all is finally well, with Kara in his arms again.

Supergirl: Year One
by SamanthaMQuinn
One of the major failings of the recently ended Supergirl is the lack of an epic romance. Not just a viable romantic interest, which there absolutely was a pretty clear one, but the follow through to devote at least part of the story to why Superman has endured, his romance with Lois.
So who is the intended romance for Supergirl? Jimmy, Winn, Mon-El, Benjamin? Nope!
The relationship that was very well defined and framed as the most important in the series for Kara (save for Alex) is with Lena Luthor. Their break up in season five was an entire season long arc that affected both characters in major ways, their season six encounters were just barely removed from romantic, with tears and hugs and everything but kisses and emotional resolution. The finale left us shippers with nothing except a vague hope that maybe off screen it happened after the credits rolled.
Screw that.
I want my epic romance for Kara, and I can't really picture it with anyone but Lena. So this project is a ground up story. I'm going back to the beginning, and I don't mean Episode one of the series. I mean all the away back to Krypton, this is a full origin story, and yes it is also a romance.

Ultimate Karamel post - tropes, dialogues, parallels and more
Tumblr media
TROPES:
Act of True Love: An action done to prove one's love for another. 
-Mon-El leaving with Rhea, to stop her from hurting or even killing Kara (2x17)
-Kara doing everything and going against the president's wishes to go after them and get him back (2x17)
Action Girlfriend: Badass girlfriend. 
-Well, she’s SUPERGIRL. And he is a freaking Legion’s member. Equals made in heaven (x)
Age-Gap Romance: Romance where one partner is notably older or younger than the other. -With a twist. In their time Mon-El was around 14 years older than teenage Kara, but because of him staying for years in the Wheel of Stars, when he is rescued, they are in similar age. Aka, it’s like divine intervention to make them meet at the right time.
All Amazons Want Hercules: A strong, tough woman falls in love with a man who is stronger than or just as strong as her.
-There was something going on with Kara and some random dude from a prom night who ended with broken foot, 4 other dudes who ended with broken noses (x), James, William and Kenny but all failed, because you know, she broke male humans bones. Because she needed an equal. 
-While sex and intimacy is not everything, it is a big part of relationship and the morning after showed how wonderful for Kara it was FINALLY to be herself, with a partner strong enough to match her physical strenght and needs. No other partner could allow her to do it.
Almost Kiss: Two characters come close to kissing.
-Mxy interrupted it in s2 (2x12) and in s3 when a fucking robot did it in Argo (3x21).
Alone Among the Couples: One character is single while everyone else around them is in a relationship. 
-Aka Kara in the end of the series, what makes her a third wheel forever.  What doesn’t make any sense, so, yeah being off planet means deep dicking that one Daxamite (hugs, Peggy). 
-Her speech to James in s1 about wanting a perfect partner, like Lucy was for James. And she got that with Mon-El in s2 (x)
Amazon Chaser: A guy who falls in love with tough girls. 
-Well, Mon-El fell for the strongest female on Earth and it’s canon she was his first girl he truly fell in love with.
Amicable Exes: Former lovers who have remained on good terms with each other.
-Basically for most of s3 with a strong suggestion they were heading to fixing their relationship in the end but some BTS drama changed their ending.  
-In ep 100th, while fighting with Reign (x) and Mon-El giving her great peptalk (5x13)
Anguished Declaration of Love: Confessing your love for somebody during a moment of angst. 
-In s2 when he was dying from Medusa (well, he didn’t declare love but he was already in love, 2x08) 
-When he declared he cares about her, calling her eyes comets in 2x10 (x) and then friendzoning himself, because he was sure she didn’t return his feelings (x)
-In Kara’s case, when she was sending his ass away to save him
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: No matter how much they fight, they really do care about each other very much. 
-DEO’s fight (2x13); Jeremiah’s ep, when Mon-El comforts her at the end of the ep, when Music Meister makes her comatosed and Mon-El jumps from the balcony and catches her before she falls to the floor, on that point they were broken up (x).
Battle Couple: Lovers who kick ass together. 
Tumblr media
-Started with s2 and blossomed fully in s3 (fighting Reign was the peak 3x18), continued in s5 (the ep 100th) and s6 in the final ep.
Better Partner Assertion: Someone tries to convince the person they love that they would be a better lover than their romantic rival. 
-Happened in the Mxy’s ep in s2, in Mon-El’s clumsy way that Kara didn’t appreciate. In the end Kara’s convinced Mon-El she wanted him, not some dimensional, pretty asshole who could have given her everything in a blink of an eye.
The Big Damn Kiss: A grandiose kiss scene. 
-Once again, the Mxy’s ep. It was hot, it was beautiful, it was THE kiss of the entire series (2x13)
-We also had The Little Damn Kiss when they kissed sweetly for the first time and then ignored it (2x08)
Tumblr media
Birds of a Feather: A couple share similarities with each other. 
-A lot but maybe not at the first sight: They are both superpowered aliens, they shared a planet and some history, they both (thought they) lost their family and friends, they both were alien immigrants on Earth, they were both superheroes and leaders, they both shared values and morality, they both were adorable space puppies at the day and kickasses at the night.
Bridal Carry: A character carries his Love Interest in his arms and/or vice versa. 
As much as I don’t think it applies to a show where a superpowered person carries people like a sack of potatoes in almost every episode (following this trope, Kara would end with: J’onn, Clark, some dude from crossover, Kelly. Cat and a horde of other characters), context matter:
-In the Flash crossover, Mon-El was carrying unconscious Kara. And while Kara carried a lot of people this way (or was carried like that by J’onn, Kal and some super dude in other crossover), the context matters: she was affected by some superpowered being, because of the struggle she had with her lover and he carried her like that into a crossover ep they shared with another canon couple to fix their love. That was the WHOLE ep about. Fixing. Their. LOVE.
Boy Meets Girl: A boy and a girl meet, lose each other, then find each other again. 
-A boy from Daxam and a girl from Krypton, working together (x)
Break His Heart to Save Him: You must break up with your lover in order to protect them. -Mxy’s ep, Kara says it’s over between them, because she knows jealous Mxy’s is eavesdropping and could do anything to Mon-El:
Kara: And you know what? He makes an excellent point. He has limitless power that he can use to help me fight for justice. We'll make a great team. 
Mon-El:I thought we were going to do that. 
Kara: We're too different, Mon-El. I'm sorry.
Later:
Kara: I didn't mean it. I just said it so you'd let me go to protect you. Plus, he could have been listening, so...
Breakfast in Bed: Showing appreciation and affection for another by preparing them a meal served upon their waking in bed. 
-Mon-El prepared for Kara a whole ass breakfast and was not amused (for a second) when she got up before he could have served it. And a friendly reminder, he has LEARNT how to cook for HER. Because he knew how much she loves food (2x17) 
Tumblr media
Can't Tie His Tie: A man allows a woman (who he may or may not be romantic with yet) to tie his tie, showing their closeness. 
-Maybe not a tie, but for sure Kara spent a lot of time making Mon-El look good for his first day at CatCo and put glasses on his face. Also, who tied his bow? Please, not Mon himself, he didn’t know youtube yet (2x05)
Caught the Heart on His Sleeve: Ship Tease moment where one partner grabs the other partner's arm/sleeve. 
-The adorkable moment, when he grabs her hand to dance and she needs to put the POTSTICKERS away. Did she ever abandon potstickers for anyone else??? (x)
-Kara holding his hand, while Jeremiah digs into his leg wound (x)
-After their relationship was established - Mon-El holds and caresses her arm, while she is worried about Alex being kidnapped (x)
Changing Yourself For Love: Changing your image to impress a love interest. 
-Mon-El stops drinking, flirting, doing weird jobs, and starts to train with Kara, wanting to keep the world spinning with her. THO, he did some of these things for himself, but it was thanks to Kara’s inspirational personality.She was the one who encouraged him to be better and move on from his survivor’s guilt, that, friendly reminder, made him quite suicidal.
2x07
Mon-El: Why am I the only one who survived Daxam? If I die in this cell, maybe I deserve to. 
Kara: You don't deserve to die. You deserve to survive.
Later:
Mon-El: Well, any, uh, any courage I do have, I learned it from you.
2x09
Mon-El: I wanna help you keep the world spinning. To prove that I was spared for a reason.
2x11
Kara :Actually, you know what, I'll have what he's having. 
M'gann: Oh, he's been drinking exclusively club soda for the last week.
Chastity Couple: They're in love, but they're not physically intimate with each other. 
-S3. He is married to another. While it’s canon they’re still in love. He solved the problem aka he mutually with Imra broke the relationship to be with Kara, but the duties force him to come back to the future.
Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends: When the lead hooks up with their One True Love, their other suitors are, often out of nowhere, paired off with other characters. 
-In s2 Winn and Lyra. James and his shield, I guess?
-Averted in s3, when she and him stay single after he breaks up things with Imra.
Cock Fight: Two guys fight for the affections of a girl. 
-Mxy and Mon-El in 2x13. That’s it.
Comforting Comforter: Ship Tease moment where someone covers their Love Interest with a blanket. 
-Mon-El wrapping Kara in his arms and blanket after Jeremiah's escape in s2 (x) (x)
Tumblr media
-When they both eat ice-cream on the couch, Kara puts he covered with a blanket legs on his lap (x)
-Their first blanket and couch scene, when he says he wants to be a hero too (x)

OTHER THINGS
-Kara shared her fave potstickers only with Mon-El. Willingly. While threatening Alex to murder her, when she wanted to steal them. 
-Coloristically speaking, Mon-El’s suit resembles Kal’s suit. Also, it’s a copy of Kal’s. They are the same, so it feels he belongs to the El family (plus there is a place for EL glyph on his chest). Their suits are matching, as simple as that.
-Karamel matches clothes and colors in many scenes and Mon-El wears red/crismon and blue in s2. For me it’s just how television works (contrast), but some people see more into it.
-He was wearing her dad’s clothes on Argo. There is no other logical explanation.
-Double date with Tara and her husband on Argo in s3, double date with Lena and Jack in s2.
-The fact is, Kara invited Mon-El to come with her to Argo and he STAYED IN HER HOUSE.
-Shenanigans as a pretended and real couple. Following by teasing each other a lot.
-Mon-El talking to her in Kryptonian on Argo.
-Kara gave him her necklace aka most important thing she had, a memory of her home to protect him and he wore it after 7 years, even while married to another woman. Canon didn’t say what happened to the necklace, so we can assume he still has it. As she still has his Legion ring. 
-Mon-El gives her a ring and Kara puts it on her finger which is basically screaming MARRIED.
-Them standing side by side at Kara’s farewell party, holding champagne and looking like they were at their engagement party.
-It was never explained, but they had a connection strong enough for him to reach her and wake her up while she was drowning. Also, he told her to wake up from a dream TWICE (in s2 and 3) and she did.
-She dreamed about him for 6 months. The fact her mother appeared there too, and both were ALIVE, while she was sure they were dead, says a lot. Also, the scene in her dream was filmed with blurry light, shining sun and with romantic, gentle music
-Both Kara moms approved of him almost immediately and saw romance between them.
-He is the only person she had sex and intimate relationship with. He also explained how things worked on Daxam (people got drugged to not feel emotions), his arranged marriage with Imra (based on respect, being content and saving the peace) and then describing his love for Kara that was special, means he really loved only Kara.
-When you think about it, she stared at his naked chest, while he was unconscious, a lot. Was it love at the first sight? Especially because he was her sleeping beauty and she was his prince charming. 
-He called her a woman of tomorrow in her dream and then gave her the Legion ring. Also, the fact he called her a woman , not a girl of tomorrow, may mean she went to the future as a mature person. Leaving the “girl” behind.
-Hugged from behind, while having a scene with Alex and Maggie.
-Forehead kisses, in s2 when he kissed her on the couch while she was upset after Jeremiah betrayed them, and when he came back from the future and was lying on the DEO bed.
-While making out on the couch, the camera shows two red roses, which are symbols of love and passion.
-Friendly reminder Kara ABANDONED potstickers to dance with him.
-Kara’s face when she thinks he was flirting with Eliza or when she saw his AU Flash and AU Iris version kissing on a couch and when they admitted they were in love.
-CW shows for that season were promoted with a trailer in which Kara and Mon-El wearing his superhero suit
-Kara, without a second of hesitation, opened the door of his cell when he started suffocating from the medusa’s virus.
-Kara helping him and being his mentor, was fulfilling the promise of taking her of Kal
-She asked to Mxy to take her from the AU in ep 100th right after he was killed by Reign
-They both searched for Argo, while driving J’onn’s old fashioned car. Plus Mon-El said “Home by midnight, dad” which was screaming them going for a prom date.
-He called her eyes COMETS, while stringing deeply into them.
-She called him her boyfriend while they interrupted Lena’s date and his “We kissed a lot” line in the Flash ep.
-Kara and Mon-El kissed in one comic book issue.
-They have a love song and it’s Everything she does is magic.
-On the ep struggled but hooked up in the end, their story was paired with another canon couple aka Sanvers
-”You know, sometimes people need  a shoulder to cry on even if they won’t admit it” - William to Kara. And Kara cried in Mon-El’s arms after Jeremiah’ betrayal.
-Whole Argo felt like one big honeymoon ep: engagement party with champagne in DEO, staying in her parent’s house, talking with mom-in-law, double dates with old best friends while the other couple talks about domestic life and kids, Kara touching his arm during that dinner, karamel spiritually adopting a little boy, Kara looking longingly at Mon-El interacting with Val, romantic walk in the garden with romantic music (the one played during their dream kiss in 3x01), him giving her his ring, Alura noticing their connection, Mon-El talking to Winn about how he can’t lose her again. 
-He noticed her crinkle after like, what? One week of knowing her? (x)
-Mon-El founded a freaking LEGION OF SUPERHEROES in her name and following her examples, rules and moral code. That’s love.
-They created their own love language. The blobbed name was invented by Mon-El and then repeated by Kara. The ongoing joke about Mon-El reading Romeo and Juliet. The nicknames (babe, woman of tomorrow).
-Foreshadowing. Mon-El calls them Romeo and Juliet aka the most famous doomed romantic couple of all time. In one of the books written by Jo Whittemore aka Supergirl: Master of Illusion, there is a prophet, who foreshadows him leaving for the future. 
-Personal space before becoming a couple? What personal space? (x) Also we can speculate if she touches his butt on this pic (x)
-After their first night, Kara brought him RED FLOWERS (x).
-The only time when Kara got happily drunk was with Mon-El. Normal alcohol doesn’t work for her, so he is the only one (beside Clark, I guess) who can drink alcohol for aliens and that can affect her. 
-Kara wanted to get rid of Mxy and spend a nice Valentine's day with Mon-El. VALENTINE’S day aka the day celebrated as the day of LOVE.
-Kara being completely ok with William dating…. the nurse?, and devastated when Mon-El dated Eve and Imra
-Kara saying she can’t be herself with other people or start relationships on a lie (William, Kenny, watching Lucy and James,) and then being herself with Mon-El and starting a relationship with him - since the beginning he knew who she was.
DIALOGUES AND LINES
2x02
Kara: I know what it's like to be a stranger on this planet. So when you wake up, I'll be here for you. So, you never know what it's like to be alone. 
2x03
Kara: Why were you sending a distress call? 
Mon-EL: Because I'm in distress!
+
Mon-EL: Right, and you've already made up your mind about me. So, it seems kind of pointless to keep talking to you. Bye-bye, your highness.
+
Kara: I don't know you at all. And it was a mistake of me to misjudge you just because you're from Daxam. Supergirl: You didn't try to k*ll the President. I apologize for assuming you did.
Kara: My name is Kara Zor-El, I'm from Krypton. (And like you, I'm a refugee on this planet. Earth. 
Mon-El:My name is Mon-El.
2x04
Kara: Sometimes I just like to come in here to tell her about my day. I know it's not really her, but I... Just makes me feel less... 
Mon-El: Alone.
+
Mon-El: I know it's not easy for you to be nice to me. Where I'm from and all.
+
Mon-EL: It's not your parents' fault. It's not even Krypton's fault. Okay, we shared a star, that's all.
+
Mon-El: Who would have thought? A boy from Daxam and a girl from Krypton, working together. 
Kara: Why? Is it because you come from a planet of partiers? 
Mon-El: No, because you come from a planet of snobs. I'm in your hands, Kara.
2x05
Mon-El:And you're telling me that you've never used your powers to do these menial tasks? 
Kara:(SCOFFS) Never. No. Not once. 
Mon-El:You know you get this little... This little crinkle right up there when you lie? 
Kara:I don't have a crinkle. 
Mon-El:Yeah, you're crinkling right now. 
Kara:I don't have a crinkle. 
Mon-El:You're crinkling at the moment.
+
Mon-El: What's your name, beautiful? Oh, it's you. Um, are you gonna yell at me again? 
Kara:I'm not gonna yell at you... 
Mon-El:What's wrong with your mouth? 
Kara:I'm not gonna yell at you again. Where's the suit from? 
Mon-El:Oh, you like it? Yeah, it's nice. Yeah, Eve gave me her little... Her plastic rectangle to buy things. 
Kara:You used her credit card? 
Mon-El:You're gonna yell at me again. 
Kara:I'm not gonna yell at you.
+
Mon-El: I miss dancing. I used to dance a lot on Daxam. 
Kara: Yeah, we danced on Krypton too. 
MonEl:Well, then... 
Kara: Sorry, hold on.
+
Mon-El: So, you're not mad at me? 
Kara:I get the feeling I'm always gonna be a little mad at you.
+
Kara: And I'll be here to help you, however you need me to. That's what a real mentor does.
2x06
Mon-El:You drink this drink, and I will train with you. 
Kara:I... I don't think so. 
Mon-EL:You scared? (SCOFFS) Oh, my God. (GROANS) That was very quick. How do you feel? 
Kara:Floaty. But I'm not floating. 
Mon-EL:No, you're sitting.
+
Alex: My sister, she's the one who believes in you. That's why she's so upset with you all the time. She thinks you have potential. To make a difference, like she does. To be a hero.
2x07
Mon-El: Oh. A courtship ring. You know, I've just learned that there is a long-standing mating ritual here where if you like it, you should've put a ring on it.
+
Lillian: Now we've been studying your friend. He's powerful, but has a very bad lead allergy. Say you'll do it and I'll let him live. Or I could just put one in his heart right now. 
Kara:No! Okay, okay! I'll do it. Stop! 
Mon-EL: Please. Don't. 
Kara:I'm not gonna let you die. Give me the helmet.
+
Kara:If something happens, if... If I don't get out of here, I need you to tell Alex something for me. I need you to tell her to just keep living her life on her own terms. Tell her I wasn't scared, okay? 
Mon-EL:Well, if I don't make it and you do, you're welcome to tell everyone I was scared out of my mind.
+
Mon-EL: I have to think, why me? Why am I the only one who survived Daxam? If I die in this cell, maybe I deserve to. 
Kara:You don't deserve to die. You deserve to survive.
+
Kara: You were really brave, Mon-El. 
Mon-El:I told you I was scared. 
Kara:Well, you could still be scared while being brave. Maybe there's a hero in you after all. 
Mon-El: Well, any, uh, any courage I do have, I learned it from you.
+
Mon-El: Is Kara maated? (...)On Daxam, we had arranged marriages, chosen for you at birth. You reach a certain age, boom. You're latched to that person. Is that how it works here on Earth? 
Winn:Uh, well, here on Earth, we call it getting hitched, not latched. And nowadays, you pretty much choose your own mate. 
Mon-El: Has Kara chosen? 
James: No, she has not. Why do you ask? 
Mon-El:Just studying Earthly customs.
2x08
Mon-El: Jolly Thanksgiving!
+
Kara: I think Mon-El is hitting on Eliza. 
Alex:No way.
Kara: You really hit it off with Mon-El. 
Eliza:Oh, Kara. He's chatting me up because I'm your mother. 
Kara:What? 
Eliza:He likes you! 
Kara:Uh, no. No. (GIGGLES) 
Eliza:Yes. He's trying to score points with me to impress you. 
Kara:There's no way. 
Eliza:Believe me. A mother knows.
+
Mon-EL: Out of everybody who could have found me in that pod, I'm the luckiest guy in the world that it was you. I'm just going to jump in and say there are so many things that I'm thankful for. And, honestly, I don't think I've ever really felt this much like myself than right now, and so there's a reason for that.
+
Kara: Hey, you don't, uh... You don't like me, do you? 
Mon-El: Of course I like you. 
Kara:No, I mean, like, you don't "like me" like me? 
Mon-El:"'Like you' like you"? Sorry, English is my second language. 
Kara: My mom, Eliza, she... She thought you were being extra nice to her on Thanksgiving. That's like a thing that boys on this planet do. They're nice to the moms of girls they have crushes on sometimes. 
Mon-El:"Crush"? Sorry, (STAMMERS) I'm not following. 
Kara: You don't want to mate with me, do you? 
Mon-El:Um... (COUGHING) I mean, have you seen the women that I've been attracting, earthlings and otherwise, since I've been on this planet?
+
Mon-El: Did you learn a new power where you can duplicate yourself? Because I'm seeing two of you and it's really cool. 
Kara: No. (LAUGHS) No, sorry. No new powers. Just... I think the double vision is all you. 
Mon-EL: Oh, so I have a new power? 
Mon-El: You know, you look beautiful, with the weight of all these worlds on your shoulder. You don't have to make me feel better. Yeah. Absolutely beautiful.
2x09
Mon-El: If you go looking for trouble... Trouble... Ye shall find. 
Kara:Thank you for the completely useless advice.
+
Kara: That's not club soda. 
Mon-El:Yeah, what exactly is club soda?
+
Mon-El: Question, do you think I'm more of a Goofus, or more of a Gallant? 
Kara:Goofus.
+
Mon-El:Yes. Yes, we are very religious. Very into our gods. 
Kara:God. 
Mon-EL:One God. We are madly monotheistic.
+
Mon-El: I wanna get my hands dirty, you know, like...
Mon-El: I wanna help you keep the world spinning. To prove that I was spared for a reason.
2x10
Mon-El: I remember. I was sick and alone. And you were leaning over me. And you must have been sad. Or something because your eyes were insanely blue. I mean, they always are. But they were like comets. And I had never seen anyone so stunning, and I kissed you, and it was okay that I was... It was okay that I was going to die, because I'd gotten to kiss you. I, um... (CLEARS THROAT) I saved you at the police station because... Because I care about you. (WHISPERS) Comets. 
Kara: Mon-El... 
Mon-El:I'm not here to change your mind. I get that... I get that you don't care about me. 
Kara:I do care about you. 
Mon-EL:But not in the same way. That's... (CLEARS THROAT) That's good, that's fine.
2x11
Kara:I'm not so sure we're a good match. 
Mon-El:Yeah. Yeah, no. I'm just glad we're on the same page, you know. 
Kara:I mean, I have my career in journalism that I just started out on. In the meantime, when I'm not being Supergirl, I really need to focus on that. And even if I did have time to date someone, I wouldn't date someone like... Someone who... Who... Who is... 
Mon-El:An intergalactic bartender? 
Kara:Yes! Yes. No. It's... Because it's not your job. It's... It's the way you are. 
Mon-El:...I'm going to go over there now.
+
Kara:He told me he liked me the other day. 
Alex:I'm so shocked. 
Kara:Was it that obvious? 
Alex:Duh!
+
Alex:And, you know, you looked a bit overwhelmed when you talked to Mon-El. So, maybe the reason that you made such big plans with me was so that you didn't have to think about how you actually feel about him. 
Kara:I told him how I feel. 
Alex:Mmm-hmm. And you really believe that? 
Kara:He's complicated. 
Alex:Mmm-hmm. 
Kara:But it's not just about him, it's about me. Every time I put myself out there, it backfires. I don't want it to happen again, it's too risky. 
Alex:You know, I happened to have taken a rather big romantic risk recently. And I gotta say... It pays off.  Maybe he's worth a shot.
2x12
Eve: No, all he did was talk about you the entire date. 
Kara: So he talked about me? 
Eve:I told him, I said you have to get over your ex-girlfriend before you put yourself back out in the field. 
Kara:Ex-girlfriend? (LAUGHS) No, no, no, no. Eve, Mike and I never dated. 
Eve:Mmm-hmm. Mike told me the same thing.
+
Mon-El:You believe in a lot of people that others don't. 
Kara:Oh, did you talk to James? 
Mon-El:No, I'm actually talking about myself.
Kara: I was mad at you, because I thought you were dating Eve. 
Mon-El:Ah. “Were,” as in past tense. Right? As in, she told you that the date didn't actually go well. 
Kara:Uh, she mentioned it. 
Mon-El:Yeah. You know, I'm not super hip on earthly social cues, but why would you be mad if I was dating Eve? 
Kara:I'm not mad. You literally just said you were mad. 
Kara:No. 
Mon-El:Two seconds ago, you said, “I am mad about...” 
Kara:Yeah, I'm surprised. Oh, not mad, surprised. I'm surprised that... You'd just date someone else, when you were serious about me, because I mean if... How could you be serious if you did that? 
Mon-El:If you don't like me, why do you... Why do you care? 
+
Kara:I can be strong, and stand my ground when I'm protecting someone else, but when that someone is me... It's a lot harder. 'Cause I don't like being vulnerable. We're really different.
Mon-El:I'm, uh, super fun. And you're hyper-critical. 
Kara:More like, you're an arrogant dude-bro and I'm the personification of the American way. 
Mon-El:I'm sorry, and I'm arrogant?
Kara: Last year I thought I could have it all, and then I thought I couldn't. Then I had to pick. So, I chose being Supergirl over having a relationship. And then, you came along, and I thought you were... thoughtless and selfish. And I kept writing you off. And you kept proving me wrong. And I just got me thinking... Maybe I can have it all. Hi. 
Mon-El:Hi.
2x13
Kara:Um, there was something happening between us before Mxyzptlk showed up. 
Mon-El:Mmm-hmm. 
Kara:And I really, really want to get back to that. (...) Because before you know it, he's going to be back in his dimension, and you and I, we can celebrate "The Day of the Valentine" together.
+
Mon-El:Because Mxy snaps his fingers, and there's flowers in your loft. And he snaps his fingers, and you're in Vera Wang... (
Kara:Oh, my God! What? You're jealous. 
Mon-El:I'm... That is ridiculous. 
Mon-El:I thought we were going to do that. 
Kara:We're too different, Mon-El. I'm sorry.
+
Mon-El: Hey, I just wanted to let you know that you're awesome.
+
Mon-El:I also wanted to say I'm sorry. For acting like an ass. I've been giving it a lot of thought and I have realized that you are my Kryptonite. 
Kara:Me? 
Mon-El:Oh, uh... No, I mean, my feelings for you. I've never felt like this about anyone in my life... I didn't know that there were this many feelings to even be had. My emotions, I guess they made me kind of crazy.
Mon-El:You don't think that we belong together, and I respected that. 
Kara:No, but Mxy wasn't the only one I tricked. I didn't mean it. I just said it so you'd let me go to protect you. Plus, he could have been listening, so... 
Mon-El:Wait. Wait, so you didn't mean any of that stuff that you said? 
Kara:Well, the first bit about your infuriating male ego, that part I meant. 
Mon-El:Okay, okay.
Kara: But the second part about us not being a match... I didn't mean that.
Mon-El:Well, you got rid of Mxy... 
Kara:I did. That means nothing is... Nothing is stopping us. 
Kara:Nope. Nothing is stopping us.
2x14
Mon-El: had a really nice time. 
Kara:Yeah? Me, too. 
Mon-El: Um, one note. 
Kara:Okay? 
Mon-El:I would like to wake up next to you.
Kara:Gosh, it's so nice to do that without breaking the guy's nose. 
Mon-El:How many times did that happen? 
Kara: Um... - Less than five. 
Mon-El: So four? 
+
Mon-El:Why don't you... Why don't you tell me what you need? I'll listen. 
Kara:Just be here with me.
Mon-El:Do you need anything else? Or... 
Kara:To wake up with me. 
Mon-El:Hey. I'd love to.
2x15
Mon-EL: Kara, I'm home! (CHUCKLES) I just... (IN NORMAL VOICE) I love saying it like that.
+
Mon-El:Well, what happens if you blob it? 
Kara:Blog. 
Mon-EL:Right, that's what I said, blob.
+
Mon-EL:Do you think it's the right thing to do? Go. 
Kara:Yes. I do. 
Mon-EL:Well, there you go. Then publish it. Easy. 
Kara:But how can you be so sure? 
Mon-EL:Because you are the most moral person I know. So if you think it's the right thing to do, it is.
+
Mon-EL:Hey. You have so much to offer this world. So don't let Snapper or anyone else tell you differently. Okay? 
Kara:You know something? 
Mon-EL:What?
Kara:Maybe being Supergirl and having you is enough. 
Mon-EL:You think so? 
Kara: Yeah.
2x16
Kara:What? 
Mon-EL:That face. That smile. 
Kara:I'm just happy. 
Mon-El:Yeah? 
Kara: Yeah, like that... Dopey grin, butterflies in my stomach happy. 
Mon-El:Mmm-hmm. 
Kara:Is that cheesy? 
Mon-El:It's like, it's like a rom-com on steroids cheesy. But I'm happy you're happy.
+
Mon-EL: My name is Mon-El. I'm the former Prince of Daxam. And I was a spoiled, useless person, that I didn't know. Until I met you. And I love being a hero because it means I get to spend every single day by your side. And I love the way that you're honest to a fault. And the way that you fight for those you care for. And I love you. With everything that I have, I love you.
+
Mon-El: No! Mother, that woman is the best thing that's ever happened to me. The best thing I know. And whether we're together or not, being near her, it makes me a better person. It makes me the person that I want to be.
The Flash 3x17
Mon-El: My name is Mon-El. I'm, I'm Kara's friend. We're more, more than friends.
+
Barry: Your boyfriend brought you to us. 
Kara:He is not my boyfriend. He, he's just a boy. Who is not my friend. He's my nothing. 
Barry: Okay.
+
Mon-El:I'm so sorry I lied to you. 
Kara:I forgive you.
+
Kara:Yeah, I think we'll be okay. Although, if you lie to me again, I will drop a mountain on you. 
Mon-EL:Wow.
2x17
Kara:What smells so... Oh, is that hash browns! 
Mon-EL: No, no, no, no! I'm trying to make you breakfast in bed. I'm going for full romance, here. And you have ruined it. 
Kara:Okay, that's very sweet. But there is no way you're getting in the way of me and bacon!
Mon-EL: Well, I figured since you were good enough to take me back, that I should be good enough to fill every moment of your life with joy.
+
Kara:Well, there's one good thing about not having to work at CatCo. 
Mon-EL:What's that? 
Kara:There's more time with you.
+
Kara:There's only one thing we can do. Talk to your mother. 
Mon-El: Run for our lives. 
+
Mon-EL: I think of this because I'm reading this play right now, Romeo and Juliet? 
Kara:Yeah, I've heard of it. Right and there's this moment at the end where I am right now, where they're about to run away together and to live happily ever after. And I can't help but think that that could be us. You know? 
Kara:Yeah, but Juliet and Romeo both die at the end. 
Mon-El:...I did not see that coming.
Kara:I'm Supergirl, I don't run from anything. 
Mon-EL:Yeah, I know. It's one of the more annoying things about you. 
Kara:Thank you. 
Mon-EL:You're welcome.
Mon-El: People don't really change. 
Kara:Sure they do. You did. You've become someone incredible and unselfish. Just give her a chance. 
Mon-El:You really think I'm incredible? 
Kara: *crinkling* No. I just said that to get you to listen to me.
+
Kara: When Mon-El first landed here, we didn't understand each other. But we found a connection. Through the kindness in our hearts.
+
Mon-El: Whatever you want. I'll go back to Daxam, I'll be your prince. All of it. Just stop hurting her. 
Rhea:I have your word? No tricks? No resistance? 
Mon-EL: You have my word. (...) I'm sorry, Kara. This is the only way. So long as you're safe.
Kara:  Don't go. 
+
Kara:This is Mon-El's life. Please. 
J'onn:I cannot disobey the President of the United States. I know it's easy to let emotions get involved, but there's a protocol. I'm not the one calling the shots right now. I know how much you care for Mon-El. But this is too dangerous. 
Kara:I have to save him. I know you understand. Once that ship leaves he's gone forever.
Kara:Please. J'onn, I can't lose him.
+
Mon-El: You came after me. 
Kara:Every time.
+
Mon-El:I think we could all stand to be a little more like you. More optimistic and brave... 
Kara:I think you were pretty brave. 
Mon-EL:No, I just did what I knew you would have done. And it was terrifying.
+
Mon-EL:I know I'm beginning to sound like a broken record here but I admire you. 
Kara:Well, I'm not going to forget the way you sacrificed yourself for me. Ever. 
Mon-EL:So we saved each other today. Yeah. Just like Romeo and Juliet. 
Kara:You really need to finish it. Can you finish reading that, please?
2x18
Kara: Yeah, this is my boyfriend, Mike.
+
Kara:This is an exception. 
Mon-El:Yes! Shenanigans!
2x19
Mon-El: Babe!
2x21
Kara: Hi. 
Mon-el: Hi. 
Kara:Uh, Kara Danvers sent me to get you. 
Mon-El: Yeah. She's great, isn't she? 
Kara:She'll be thrilled to hear you think so.
+
Mon-El:Please, don't do this. You're not gonna get through to her. 
Kara:I have to try. As long as you're safe.
2x22
Kara:Let's just stay here a little while longer, okay? 
Mon-EL:How long? 
Kara:Until tomorrow. 
Mon-EL: Okay, woman of tomorrow.
+
Mon-El: *hugging Kara* Are you okay? 
Kara: I'm so much better now.
+
Clark: You must be a good guy or she wouldn't be with you.
+
Kara: I feel like I'm on the brink of having everything I've ever wanted. Family, friends, a job I love. A life as a hero I never could have imagined. And Mon-El.
Clark: Whenever I fight, no matter who it's against or where it is, I'm always fighting for Lois. I fight with her right here. The people we love, they're, uh... They're another secret superpower. Keep him with you.
+
Mon-El: There's something I need to say. Wherever I go... I'm gonna be better because of you. You'll be in my heart. I promise I'm going to be the man...  That you thought I could be.
Kara: You've made me so happy.Take this*gives him her necklace*. Take this. This will keep you safe. I love you. And I should have said it before. I love you.
+
Kara: Go be with your girlfriend. I need to know you two are happy. Like I want to know about Winn and Lyra, J'onn and M'gann, Clark and Lois. It's not like everybody else's world stopped.
+
Kara:While you've been away, uh... I've been in a relationship... 
Cat:Kara Danvers has a boyfriend?A year in a yurt, and I miss everything! 
Kara: Had a boyfriend. (...) For the first time ever, I really liked someone... Loved someone…
3x01
Alex:Let me help. Let me help you get over him. 
Kara:Get over him? That's... (SIGHS) He didn't dump me. I sent him away. And for all I know he's...
+
Kara: Clark said it himself. The decision I made, he couldn't have made that sacrifice But me, I couldn't have lived with myself if I hadn't. I will always make the decision I made. I am not a human. I tried to be. But I'm not. Kara Danvers was a mistake.
+
Mon-El: *saving Kara from drowning* Wake up!
+
Kara: *to herself* Wake up.
3x02
Kara:No, who I am as Kara feels broken. I lost Mon-El. Lena keeps asking me where I'm going, which is new and horrible.
+
Kara:I kill him. 
Alex:No. 
Kara:It's him in the pod, not me. Mon-El? I kill him. 
Alex: No. 
Kara:I kill him, it was me. He's dead. He's dead. I know he's dead, I know it! If he were alive, we would have heard from him. We would've gotten a message. He died in the pod. I put him in there and he died. 
Alex:Kara, he's not dead. 
Kara:He died, I kill him. I kill him! I kill him! 
Alex: He is not dead! 
Kara: I kill him. 
Alex:He is alive. Okay, I know it. I don't know where, I don't know how, but I just... I know he's alive. You saved him.
3x07
Kara:I missed you. 
Mon-EL:Me too. 
Kara:It's been... Tough. Seven months of not knowing. 
Mon-El:Seven months? I tried to send a message... so many times, to tell you I was okay, but I couldn't. - I tried. 
Kara:It's okay. You can tell me all about what happened later. 
Mon-El:Kara... 
Kara: Shh. 
Mon-El: No, Kara...
Kara:Just sleep.
+
James: Not so sure about the beard, though. 
Kara:I kinda like it.
+
James:You know, I watched you two last year. I've never seen you more happy. And I know that he would never do anything to hurt you.
+
Mon-El:It's me. 
Kara:Then... Then make me believe it. Please. [BREATH TREMBLING] You know, I don't sleep anymore. I lay awake at night just staring at the ceiling, because if I close my eyes I dream about you dying. [VOICE BREAKING] I see you disappear into the blackness of space forever. [SOBS] This was all I wanted. This. And when I saw you on that ship... [INHALES DEEPLY] oh, my God, I felt like I could hope again. I could touch you, and see you and hear you, and be with you, finally. But... you're different. You have nothing to say? Nothing? 
Mon-El:I'm sorry. 
Kara:Shame on me for having a human heart.
+
Kara:My necklace. Why'd you have to come down here, anyway? 
Mon-EL:If we hadn't come here, you would have died. It doesn't matter, I'm not your problem anymore. 
Kara:How could you have changed so much? It's only been seven months. 
Mon-El:No, it's been seven years! It's been seven months for you, but it has been seven years for me since the day I went in that pod.
+
Kara:So what? You just... You just forgot about me? Why are you still wearing the necklace?
+
Kara:You kept the necklace. 
Mon-El:Of course I did. As a reminder of everything you taught me and did for me. A reminder of you. It means a lot. You have to believe that no matter what... What century or universe, or world I'm living in, that I would never forget you. Never.
+
Mon-El:You've never needed my protection. Except for that one time when we went for all-you-can-eat ribs. And you, uh... You were inhaling those things, if I remember correctly. - I swear if hadn't stopped you... 
Kara:It was a limited-time offer. I had to.
Kara:This is the first time I've seen you smile since you've been back. I haven't had a chance to say it yet, but, uh... it's really good to see you.
3x08
Kara: And even though she looks like a greek goddess i can’t find any reason to hate her.
+
Mon-EL: Well, that just strengthens my point because the greek gods have nothing on you.
3x10
Mon-El: Careful Brainy! You’ve got precious cargo onboard!
+
Mon-El:Hey, Kara. I was really worried about you. When you didn't wake up... I still care about you. 
Kara:I know. 
Mon-El:It was great fighting with you again. 
Kara: Yeah. 
Mon-El:I missed that.
3x13
Mon-El: But with Kara, I mean... [CHUCKLES] There was nothing logical about falling in love with Kara. I mean, she was... She was a Kryptonian elitist, and I was this completely self-absorbed misogynist. Not anymore. But what I felt for her, it was... It was just... 
3x14
Kara:I would just say maybe you should sing Kansas for yourself and not for other people. 
Mon-El:Yeah, that's good advice.
+
Kara:What was that back there with the T. rex? 
Mon-El:Cape tricks. 
Kara:"Cape tricks"? 
Mon-El:My old Legion uniform had one. Well, I've been fighting with a cape for three years and all it seems to do is get in the way. I can help with that, if you want. 
Kara:I'd like that.
3x15
Kara: *heart eyes* Wow. 
Mon-El:You always said I cleaned up nicely.
+
Mon-El:You ready? 
Kara:Yeah, I was born ready.
+
Mon-El:I didn't really grasp your perspective back then. 
Kara:Yeah, but still, I shouldn't have hit you. I'm sorry for that. 
Mon-El:And I'm sorry for... [SIGHS] I'm just sorry. Can we make an agreement? 
Kara:Yes. 
Mon-El:No more apologies. 
Kara:Do you wanna go be heroes?
3x18
Kara:I'm really happy I got to see you again. Witnessed the man you've become. 
Mon-El:It meant the world to me to be back here with you. And with everyone. To fight by your side.
+
Imra: But this time needs you, Mon-El. You need to help them. And you need to go back so you can figure out what's been weighing on your heart. I risked our lives and our marriage to stop Pestilence. I still believe it was worth it. I hoped that once we left, you'd put your feelings for Kara behind you. 
Mon-El:I swear I never... 
Imra:You've done nothing wrong. You've tried to bury your feelings. You behaved honorably. You must know that I would never do anything to dishonor you. I know. But I need a man, a partner... Who will choose me with a full heart. Go back. Help her fight Reign. If you stay, then that's your destiny.
3x19
Kara:Bangarang. 
Mon-EL: *to J'onn* Home by midnight, Dad.
3x20
Kara: Out here, with just you, I don't have to pretend. I can just be me.
+
Mon-EL: Supergirl. 
Kara:Not Supergirl. Kara Zor-El.
+
Mon-El:I'm very fond of your daughter. As are many others on Earth, and across time. You should be very proud of what she's become. 
Alura:I am.
3x21
Kara:Hey, thank you for everything, by the way. For coming back in, and helping, and being part of the team. It's really meant a lot to me. 
Mon-EL:Yeah, well, a while ago, someone pretty great taught me how to be a hero. 
Kara:She didn't do a bad job.
+
Kara:Why don't you just come with me?
Mon-El: I wouldn't wanna crash your homecoming. 
Kara:You wouldn't be crashing anything. It would be lovely to have you there. 
Mon-EL:You're serious? 
Kara:Absolutely. 
Mon-EL:Okay.
+
Mon-EL:Why are you smiling? 
Kara:It just feels amazing to be normal. I'm actually relieved I can't fly. No one to save.
+
Kara:New friend? 
Mother:Mon-El saved his life. Healed him with the device from his belt. 
Mon-EL:It's a development from the future. 
Kara:Saving people without telling me, hmm?
+
Kara:Do you think I'm being paranoid? 
Mon-EL:If I've learned anything, it's that your instincts are usually spot on. I think you should take this *gives her Legion ring*. 
Kara:No, Mon-El, don't... 
Mon-El:It's just in case. It will allow you to fly. 
Kara:Thank you.
+
Mon-EL: I didn't want to burden you before. Um... I know you've moved on... From us. But I didn't just come back here to help you fight Reign. When I left Imra, she asked me to sort out how I felt. And not just about her. About you. And I've been trying to convince myself that friendship between us was the right thing. But I think I've been lying to myself. I'm sorry to spring this on you in the midst of you trying to acclimate here. 
Kara:Don't be sorry. 
Mon-EL:I just don't want to hide things, pretend like they don't exist. 
Kara:After you left, I had a dream where I was walking down this path. A lot like this one. It was peaceful, and serene and... You were there, waiting for me. And all I wanted was for you to be in that field with me. Now you are. 
Mon-EL:Now I am.
3x22
Mon-EL:I lost her once, Winn. I'm not sure I can do it again.
+
Alura:He's a good man. Yeah, yeah, he is. The connection between you two is obvious. He makes you happy. Do you love him? 
Kara:No, mom, that's not an easy question to answer. 
Alura:Why not? 
Kara:There's a history between us. And complications.
3x23
Mon-EL:I have loved fighting by your side. Being there through all of it, the ups, the downs, the particularly tough days. You know, for a moment there, I thought that... that maybe this was my... my place, my time. But I learned some troubling things today, uh, about the future. I need to go back. I can't abandon the Legion. Or the world that I swore to protect, right when they need me most. 
Kara:I know you can't. You wouldn't be the man you are, if you did. The man I admire so much.
Mon-El: *gives her the legion ring* In case you ever need me.
5x13
Mon-El:You know it's okay to mess up, right? No matter how many mistakes I've made, you've always forgiven me. You should, uh, know that you deserve the same compassion that you show others.
6x20
Kara:Mon-El? 
Mon-EL:Your big speech made the history books.
+
Mon-EL: Your speech the other day... I don't know if you realize right now but... it changed the course of our future. Empowering everyone to be a hero of their own life. You... you inspire us. Always.
+++
Big thanks for LW, Re, Peggy, Aci, Julie, Mika.

thinking about how the first time lena “there are many l’s in my family’s names but none of them stand for love” luthor heard that her crush l-worded her was through said crush’s boyfriend during an alien invasion.
i mean, can you imagine the absolute breakdown she must have needed to store in her little mind boxes? the way she probably spent the entire crisis trying to get herself not to think of those words and what they meant, because they couldn’t be true, could they?
mon-el was from another planet, they probably used the word differently there. he hadn’t grown up with the luthors, he probably didn’t know how precious those four little letters could be, how dangerous it was to just toss them around like he did.
emotionally privileged people tended to banalize it, forget just how much a declaration like that can mean to someone who’s never had it. and he was with kara, so of course he had it.
can you imagine just how heavy each second until they got the daxamite invasion under control must have been for lena? and what an absolute shot in her heart it must have been like to know that it ended with her having to send her best friend’s boyfriend away.
because even if kara had loved her before (and in her mind, that was a big if), she certainly didn’t anymore. not after this.
lena must have been desperate to see kara, to hug her and cry with her and just hold her in her arms because she was so sorry and no amount of apologies would get kara to not let her go and leave her behind, but they’d survived! they’d survived, and things like this make you want to be with the ones you love.
but kara wasn’t there.
kara retreated into herself, and left lena alone to replay the sound of mon-el’s words and the look on kara’s face during every interaction they’d had, trying to find any sign of those words in the blue of her eyes.
and eventually, of course, she gave up.
how could she have ever succeeded, when she hadn’t even been taught what to look for?

Ship-a-palooza!
Loki/Sylvie is currently whipping my brain into an absolute frenzy because a) they're back! I'm ready! hit me!, but also b) like nothing has happened that I can cling to yet, so I've churned up all this shipping energy in preparation but there's no place for it to vent. Which is giving me insomnia.
So last night, I was on YouTube putting in I-don't-even-know-how-many random keywords trying to call up...something for my voracious mind to settle and snack upon, and after a bunch of meh I somehow I hit a trifecta of new-to-me-AND-ALSO-PERFECT comfort-cuddle times:
Supergirl 2x14: Kara & Mon-El, the latter of whom has a whatever face despite my respect for this crossing over from fiction to reality in a much healthier way than her previous costar relationship, but that matters zero percent because WHAT IS HAPPENING, WHAT IS THIS PERFECTLY POSED COUCH SNUGGLE COMPLETE WITH FOREHEAD KISSING. (ignore the disruptive ending of the clip)
2. Hellcats, the show I know about but have never seen anything from, featuring my dashing reliable fave Matt Barr, 1x18: basically THE EXACT SAME SCENE AS ABOVE?? anyway I can't focus on anything being said because I am obsessed with how his hand never stops moving, constantly running soothing motions over her back except once when he briefly pets her hair (!) before tightening into a full hug. This is like watching a 10.0 gymnastics routine. Everything choreographed to my exact peak desire.
(stay tuned I am definitely coming back to them at some point; this has gone from "would be nice to see someday" to "banging down the doors demanding access")
3. And then I stumble into "it's alright, I'm here," which by the title alone is already making me sit up straighter, "a short film about depression" (interest rising) where "a young man has a depressive breakdown in front of his unsuspecting friend" [seems more like girlfriend. given the kissing and all.]
And it...is just the entire standard contents of my daydreams, splashed out for the world to see. This is the kind of stuff I run when I lack new content or am bored with the old content and just need maximum cotton fluff STAT, this is what happens. All the tears, all the comfort via at least five differet varieties of cuddling, including falling asleep together.
And then for an EXTRA layer, I can't stop obsessing about how the lack of polish not only makes this look far more real compared to the above to, this...is actually what I've experienced in life. Like exactly. Complete with not knowing exactly what to do or say except to Be There and offer uncertain but earnest hugs and reassurances, because how do you imitate what you've seen on TV when it's real and it turns out all the observational study in the world does not actually prepare you to be good at it. But you try and it seems to help, at least for a bit, maybe. It's kind of overwhelming to see yourself in a scene like that.
(Side note: the actress in particular is such a highlight; I hope she finds more things to act in because she has such quiet but compelling charisma. But adding to the "televinita this is your life" feeling -- roughly my body type? her hair the exact length and color of mine, thicker but otherwise the same style, complete with slight frizz that I don't even realize is a thing until I see it catching the light on film and recognize mine does that too? I am losing my mind)
=========
Anyway I would like to bless whatever the equivalent of book fairies* are for sending this set my way; I've never had this kind of luck with finding clips before but this is everything I needed and with perfect timing, too.
*it's the much less romantic, cold-hard-science of unfeeling algorithms, ain't it

Mon El: What are you doing?
Kara (snuggling into Mon El’s arms): Hiding
Mon El:....do you mean hugging?
Kara (pausing and looking up): Did I mumble?
Mon El: No....?
Kara (snuggling back into Mon El’s arms): This is my safe space.
Mon El: I’m your.....?
Kara: Yes. Now shut up and put your arms around me

...Well, it's not THAT often but still way more than I care to admit😅🤷🏻‍♀️🙈
Haha, okay, well, let's just forget this discussion then🙈
Nope, no hamburgers with puppies and ham😅😰
Ohhhh, Weltschmerz? Teachers included? Consider me officially very curious🤔😂 Your field of study sounds interesting!😁
Yay, Chris, Yay💃🏻💃🏻
Awww maaaan... Just wait, one day I'll finally have time to learn all the languages I wanna learn and I'll learn polish, too, even if it were just to be able to read your fics!🙈😂🙈
😂😂
...Don't kill me, yesterday I might have asked LW more generally about whether Bal-Seg knew more about Mon's mate or not🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
Nah, I WILL write it, even got the okay from LW to write a One-shot in which Bal-Seg survived, but when I write that, I wanna get his characterization and all the details LW gave us in PiaD right, so I'll have to sit down and properly re-research everything Bal-Seg related, but life is annoying shit, so I really don't have the time to actually do that right now🙈 Hopefully I'll be able to work on that soon, but probably not for at least another 2 months or so🙈🙈
Ohhhhh, okay, no kidding, I NEED you to write that, like, Mon drinking everyone under the table to get that treaty and Kara blowing up at him sounds SO.PERFECTLY. early S2!Karamel, I could cry🙈🙈😭😭
(Mon getting to be interested in stuff should be its own trope! Like, even him and his books are such a sweet obsession🙈🙈😍) For a moment there, I thought you wrote "get interested for the first time in another woman" 😂😂😂 Kara would be a murderous, miserable mess if THAT where the case🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️😅😅
Honestly? Thanks to you I can't get Mon being part of the voluntary fire brigarde in his free-time out of my head😂😅🙈🙈 But with the engineering it's be SWEET to see Winn and Mon geeking out together and maybe debating how they could build and programm R2-D2 and an X-Wing?😂🙈 oh, Wait, lol, imagine Mon working for Max (even more for Kara to rant at Mon about)😯
Haha, Yess, HIGH FIVE!😂 
Huh, you're right🤔 It DOES kinda sound like sth from Dune🤔🤔 Or Star Wars🤷🏻‍♀️😂
Yesssss, pleeaaasssee watch it!😍😍 It's just...Like...ARRGGHH, my non-existent heart 😭😍😭😍😭😍😭🙈🙈
Anyway, stay safe and sound and happy Sunday!🤗

I feel like I should ask. On the other hand I feel like I should not...
Naruto, what?
Institute of the Middle and Far East, Far East speciality. Bascially a bunch of pople loving India, China, Japan and South Korea, wanting to learn about culture and study languages, loving wierd stuff. It's not common in my dearest country to choose this field of studies, so really dedicated and WEIRD people take it. You know, Poland is Catholic country, racist, homophobic, conservative etc. And here you got, 80 people on the first year, being YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAW about everything. I can assure you, the topics we were discussing were sometimes super weird.
Gosh, I miss it. Not the exams, tho xD
....have fun. Don't haunt me if you accidentally invoke some demon and it kills you or when you die after learning how to decline...
Lol, keep me informed!
I'm intrigued, for sure you will nail his character and the whole story. Can't wait to read! :D Also, hope life will treat you well soon. Also, I kind of think it's the first time you used "shit", lol. Life is THIS much annoying, huh? *sends hugs*
Nah, maybe in the future, but I think it's one of the never-written ideas that will stay unwritten.
In one of the canon SG books he went to the museum, so boy, I wish him being intrigued by human culture, histiry etc would have been explored more in the show. And how he could have been a little more like himself in the comic books. Daxam was much more intriguing. Him bieng always allergic to the lead and having to take meds (how many this type of heroes we have?). I love show Mon-El but Chris would have NAILED his more comic book version. Such potential wasted. Sigh
The beauty with Mon is how he fits soooo many roles and is not defined by totally anything. Because being a Legion leader is do... general? While Kara is the REPORTER and new Kardashian and it's super hard to think about her as anything else. What is sad.
But yeaaaaah, Winn and Mon-El exploding shit in DEO would be cute. Do you know Bones? Where Hodgings and the interns (and Zack earlier) were doing experiments and it almost always kicked their asses XD
I don't think we should ever tell LW we wanted to put Mon El and Max at one job.... On the other hand....
Star Wars too, point taken xD
Have a nice erm, Monday's morning? *sad violin music*
