AU where Alex and Kara are doing the Kim Possible thing, but in secret. Lucy is a teenager witch, complete with centuries old aunts and Salem. Maggie is a Power Ranger. They have been managing to keep these secrets, until they end up doing a group project together.
Alex sighed as she shut the door behind J’onn and Winn, giving one final wave to them as they headed back out to the car. It had been touch and go for a while there with Kara, but now she was safe and healing. As much as Alex would have preferred to keep Kara at the DEO, she’d insisted upon going home so that she could get some rest in her own bed.
Which was why Alex found herself puttering around her sister’s kitchen, cleaning up some of the dishes left in the sink and generally tidying up the place. It was calming. Something to take her mind off of what had happened that day. Kara… her whole life, Alex was her protector, keeping her safe. And then on days like this, when some psycho managed to hurt Kara… It rocked Alex to her core.
Her hands shook under the hot water from the tap and she balled them into fists, hoping it would steady them. Soft footsteps from the other room made Alex look up and she saw Kara standing there, a blanket draped around her shoulders. Not quite the cape she was used to wearing, but Alex liked it better on her.
“You shouldn’t be up,” Alex said, shutting the water off, her tone business-like. “You need to be in bed, resting. I was just cleaning, I’ll be out of here soon.”
“Stay with me tonight?” Kara asked, her voice soft, almost pleading. Alex resisted the urge to sigh. How could she say no to that? How could she say no to Kara? She couldn’t.
no offence but Alex is a whole ass depressed lesbian notice she did Not say she was okay i haven’t watched an ep since the start of s2 but i am no idiot i know what words & answers are
“My favorite desk jockey!” Lucy leans against Alex’s desk, grinning widely. Alex glares at her, but her glee doesn’t fade. “Why the sour look?”
Alex says nothing, but the screen behind her shows Supergirl doing some hefty damage to an alien. Lucy shrugs, knowing full well what Alex would prefer to be doing at that moment in time. She also knows better than to ask if the redhead has taken some medication because of course she has.
“Bad day?”
Alex nods. “Left leg this time.”
“Ouch.”
This prompts a laugh from the otherwise morose agent. “Yeah.”
“You’re antsy, aren’t you? All that energy and nowhere to put it, huh?”
“Well, yeah.” Alex slumps against her arms and frowns at the DEO agents swarming the now disabled alien. “I was so good…”
“You still are.” Lucy smacks her shoulder. “Self-deprecation isn’t sexy, Alex.”
She perks up, curious. “Huh?”
“All I’m saying is that there’s other ways to get that energy out.” Lucy winks and walks away. “You know where to find me.”
Alex isn’t sure that really happened. She stares after Lucy and tries to calm herself before Kara gets back to base, but she’s unsuccessful. Had Lucy basically invited her to have sex? Did she want that? Well, that’s a silly question; Lucy has a smile to die for, and she’s literally one of the only people who can keep up with her.
“Al, are you okay?” Kara swoops to her side, touching her right elbow.
“Fine!” She answers a bit too high-pitch and clears her throat. “I’m fine. That was some nice work bringing that alien in.”
Kara shrugs. “It was a misunderstanding.”
“A misunderstanding with a mean uppercut. I wish I could have been there with you. I could have helped.”
“I know. And when you have good days, you totally will again. And even if you’re at the desk, you’re doing important work, y’know?”
“Is this a repeat of senior year, seeing the results of the musical auditions? There are no small parts, just small actors?”
Kara slips her arms around Alex’s shoulders. “Something like that. But really. I don’t care what you do as a job. You, Alex Danvers, are important, especially to me.”
“Thanks, Kar.”
“So, what had your heart racing so fast?”
“Uh, I think Major Lane might have been flirting with me?”
“She has been for the past year,” Kara replies. She shakes her head and sighs. “But I’m glad you’re finally noticing.”
Alex stumbles over a rock; Kara smashes the same rock under foot as she follows close behind.
“You’ll find out,” Alex whispers. The dark of the night lends itself nicely to secrecy and the need for quiet. She can barely see where she’s going, but the path is straight.
When they reach their destination, Kara cocks an eyebrow. “The junkyard? Really?”
Alex hushes her. “Well, yeah, but it’s what’s here that’s important, not the junkyard itself.”
She guides Kara to an abandoned minivan. The rear window features family stickers–a man, a woman, two children, and a cat–all faded by sunlight and age. The back tail lights have been busted, and there’s a large dent in the left side. Alex gestures to it as if she’s found the missing link.
“Um…” Kara tries not to sound too disappointed. She doesn’t quite succeed.
Alex drags her closer. “Kar, mom and dad are always getting on your case about how hard you use things.” She alters her voice to mock their parents, “Kara! Don’t grab that so hard!”
Kara stares at the ground, her cheeks red. “I’m trying…”
“They just keep telling you softer, softer! But I got to thinking that it doesn’t help after something is totally broken because you can’t exactly try again. Right? So, I want you to touch this car a lot. It’s already destroyed, so you can’t make it worse.”
“Why?”
“You can get a better idea of what kind of strength you need for things. Like opening a door or putting on a seatbelt. Hell, go ahead and punch it so you can see how much strength you need to hit like a human.”
Alex doesn’t expect the first blow of the evening to be an attack on her. Kara leaps at her, wrapping her up in a hug that’s amazingly not too tight. She rubs Kara’s back and shoves her toward the car.
You cannot tell me that Alex Danvers doesn’t know Kryptonese. That while Alex was teaching her everything of Earth, that Kara didn’t teach Alex her language. That they didn’t stay up late, looking at the stars, and Kara said every word into relation of what they saw.
You cannot tell me Alex doesn’t speak better Kryptonese then Kal-El. Because it is something she actually wanted to learn and support of because of Kara.
Alex couldn’t give her her planet, her loved ones, or her life back, but she could talk to her in her language.
She’s not my favorite character, but I don’t dislike her. Same with Cat and Sam. There are just other characters that I like more/prefer to draw. (You can probably guess which ones. XD )
