Headcanon: Because of who Clark’s two closest friends are (superhero-wise) she’s spent lots of time with individual sidekicks and for Lena, it’s basically just like something she needs to really get accustomed to because Kara despite never being a sidekick for her cousin is still besties with the rest.

I am SO here for Kara being best buds with the entire BatFam and Justice League (y’all should go see this cute drawing by @battenthecrosshatches )

Like, Lena is just so thoroughly confused by how little ol’ CatCo junior reporter, Kara Danvers, seems to be besties with big names like Bruce Wayne and Kate Kane and Diana Prince. Where did she even meet them?? Lena always wonders

Just imagine, Kara’s known Bruce almost as long as she’s been on Earth. Her cousin and him had a bit of a tense relationship at the time, but Kal still trusted Bruce with her. So whenever he saw her, Bruce just sorta took Kara under his wing like he did with the rest of his BatFam kids. It was great because they became sort of like a second family to her, with the kids becoming like her cousins and Bruce like her honorary cool uncle.

And one day, Lena calls Kara to see if she wants to meet up to get some food, and Kara has to apologize profusely, “I’m so sorry Lena! I already have plans! My Uncle Bruce is only going to be in town for a little bit longer, and we were planning to get brunch before he had to leave! Actually …” And Lena tries to say it’s fine, that they can get dinner later, but somehow finds herself being dragged out to a fancy brunch with eggs benedict and mimosas and Bruce Wayne?!?!? (”That’s your Uncle Bruce, Kara?!?!?!?!?!)

“I’m not your blind date but you came over and I was eating alone so I went with it and now you’re calling me by a different name” AU

I found this prompt on a Tumblr blog but I accidentally deleted the post and now I can’t find the prompt anymore

Lena was sitting alone. She twirled the neck of the wine glass in her left hand, her phone in her right as she responded to work emails. Jess kicked her out of the office almost an hour ago, going on about how she shouldn’t be working on her birthday and she deserved one day off for herself. Problem is Lena always had days to herself. Her days were always “her” days if she didn’t have anyone to share them with. She looked down at the red rose on the table before her, Jess’ gift to her, and let herself smile slightly. Jess was a good assistant, she meant well, and she seemed to care when no one else did.

So that’s why she listened and came here to this restaurant when she really wanted to finish responding to her emails and get a head start on tomorrow’s project. The place wasn’t the fanciest she’s been, but she wasn’t about to go to one of the high-class places she frequented when she didn’t have a date. It was nice enough: low lighting, decent wine selection, and she got a small booth in the back so no one would bother her. Her plan was to come out, grab a quick bite, and then finish work at home.

She was so focused on her phone that she hadn’t noticed the woman walk up to her booth. There was a small tap on her shoulder then, and she was slightly annoyed that anyone would interrupt her when she purposely picked this booth to avoid being bothered. She turned to look up quickly, an annoyed “Can I help you?” on the tip of her tongue, when she came face-to-face with a literal angel, the words dying before they formed. Her jaw went slack as she took in the stunning being before her.

The woman had the bluest eyes Lena had ever seen, even under the minimal lighting of the place and the black rimmed glasses she wore. Her hair fell in soft golden waves, across the shoulders of her beige jacket and blue top. She had a pair of black pants that hugged her hips and a nice pair of boots to match. She looked dressed up, yet still casual, and it suddenly made Lena feel self-conscious about the tight fitting black dress and tight ponytail she wore.

“It was supposed to be yellow,” the woman said, pointing at the flower on the table.

So here’s the thing: I loved this scene. Like, it was actually one of my all-time favorites from s2, BUT PART OF ME ACTUALLY WANTED KARA TO FAIL.

Hear me out: If she’d failed, they could have spent the rest of the season completely centered around the Danvers sisters trying to get back to each other because they love each other more than anyone in the entire universe. So we could’ve gotten back to the s1 roots of having the major story arcs revolve around the two of them and their relationship with each other. PLUS A FEW NEW THINGS TOO, GET THIS:

So we’d get this split in screentime of Kara trying to track Alex down, and then we’d also get to see Alex like crash-landing on some planet somewhere and trying everything in her power to get back home, or at least get a message to Kara that she’s alive. AND THEN, while she’s trying to bop from planet to planet, who does she run into???? THAT’S RIGHT, SHE FUCKING RUNS INTO ASTRA, WHO DIDN’T DIE AFTER ALL, SHE JUST TOOK THAT SPACE NAP WE’RE ALL CONVINCED ABOUT. So then the two of them begrudgingly work together to get home to Kara, and they get closer together as time goes by. And definitely fall in love. Because duh.

Meanwhile, Kara is doing everything in her power to find Alex NOT EVEN SURE IF SHE’S ALIVE…and just like…if she had failed to save the one person she loves MORE THAN ANYONE IN THE UNIVERSE, just THINK about how much more her character could have been developed. It wouldn’t revolve around pining over that dumb Daxamite dude, it would be about KARA and who she is, and how her failure to save Alex almost DESTROYS her because Alex has always been her strength. So now she has to learn to be strong even without Alex, and she and J’onn have to find a way to have HOPE again…because you KNOW J’onn would be terrified that he’d just lost another daughter to the effects of intolerance and violence between different alien races.

And then we can bring in some SUPERCORP as well, because Lena’s mom was the one who sent the ship with Alex et al across the fucking universe, so Lena can probably find or develop some kind of tracking device SO SHE AND KARA CAN GO ON A ROMANTIC SPACE RESCUE MISSION to save Alex. So now we’ve got a side Supercorp romance, and a side General Danvers romance, while still having the MAIN focus of the story be on our Danvers sisters and the strength of their relationship. That way at its heart, the show still has those underlying themes of HOPE and FAMILY, only now it’s fucking ELEVATED FOR THIS NEW SEASON…not only that, but it makes Kara and Alex’s relationship more DYNAMIC again…like…CAN YOU IMAGINE THE ANGST??? But also the humor of watching Alex and Astra try to get along, and Lena being like, Kara, we’re on a space ship together I FUCKING KNOW YOU’RE SUPERGIRL, JFC.

And then everyone’s all reunited, and ASTRA GETS TO HAVE HER REDEMPTION ARC which is rooted in her love for her niece, and in this newfound love for Alex. PLUS with hers and Lena’s help, you could rope this all back into the CADMUS storyline when they return home so we actually get some closure on that…and everything’s all about hope, and love, and family, and EVERYBODY BEING STRONGER TOGETHER AND SHIT…

Anyway. I miss the Danvers sisters. The end.
