    Summary

    Lena casts her mind around for the last time she felt this unmoored, this off-balance, by a woman, and can't come up with anything. Kara Danvers is unlike anybody that Lena has ever met; the sweetest, bubbliest person Lena’s yet to come across, and simultaneously one of the saddest, who is probably lying to everyone that she meets. It’s an impossible contradiction to wrap your head around, and Lena should probably stop hiding in this bathroom and trying.

    (Or, Kara and Lena get parent-trapped into a relationship by a goofy little alien.)

    Summary

    “You’re getting lost in your head again,” Robin whispers, snapping him out of his thoughts. “Tell me what you’re thinking about?”

    Steve hums. “I was thinking... we could run away, you know? I think about it, sometimes.”

    She just laughs, like he’s not suggesting something outrageous. She laughs, and he knows this laughter. This is the laugh that tells him she knows he’s being serious. This is the laughter that agrees. She’s hearing him out.

    “And go where?” She asks, smiling softly at him. He lifts his hand, tracing a path from the freckles on her chin to the ones right behind her ear.

    “California. Oregon. I don’t know. New York? Just... as far away as we could from this place. From this stupid town.”

    “And what would we do?”

    Steve leans his head on the back of the couch, hand still on Robin’s face. She mirrors him, and they keep staring at each other.

    --Steve and Robin, thirty-one years apart. Life, the end of the world, weddings. A dream to complete.

    Summary

    After the battle of Starcourt, Robin & Steve take some time to cope with their trauma and build their new friendship in a rundown cabin in the middle of nowhere. A year later, they're back trying to heal from the losses following Vecna and the Upside Down.

    or

    Everyone's favourite platonic soulmates learn life lessons and get into shenanigans together while figuring out that love doesn't have to be romantic.

    "She’d throw herself in front of anything if it meant not having to hold her breath to try and feel his body moving against her back, giving some sign that he was still pulling oxygen into his lungs. She’d spit in the face of anything that laughed at his pain. Two weeks ago the sight of his stupid hair and stupid face filled her with something red and hot, now she thought she might die for him if it came down to it. Love was weird like that, even when it was platonic."
