    Summary

    “Damn it,” Alex grumbles, kicking at an empty chair until it skids across the floor. “Come on, guys. There has to be someone who can go undercover. Any woman under 30 at this bureau who can put on some makeup and twirl in a circle.”

    And then all eyes, inexplicably, go to Kara.

    “Who?” Kara asks, looking back and forth between Alex and Vasquez and surreptitiously brushing the Cheeto dust from her pants. “Who is it, guys?”

    But Alex and Vasquez just keep staring at her silently, matching grins on their faces, and after a few seconds the horrible truth dawns on her. Kara blinks, looking down at herself and then back up at them.

    “But…I’m 31?”

    OR

    To help her sister foil an attack on the Miss United States pageant, Kara needs to go undercover. There’s only one problem – she’s never been ladylike a day in her life. What starts as a reluctant favour leads Kara to real friendship, growth, and Lena Luthor, all under the watchful eye of the pageant spotlight.

    Summary

    "So to keep yourself from getting hurt by love, you're…casting a spell to…find it?" Sam says, her face twisted up in confusion as Lena wanders the garden gathering the herbs she needs. It's dark outside, and they're darting between shadows – the garden is here for the kitchen staff to pick fresh ingredients from, and the last time Lillian found her snipping rosemary she was confined to her room for two months.

    "I'm calling for Amas Veritas," Lena clarifies. "I'm binding myself to a person that doesn't exist."

    "How do you know they don't exist?"

    "They can't. No person can fit all my criteria. And if they don't exist, I can never fall in love."

    OR

    Lena Luthor is cursed. Everyone she loves is doomed to die; it would take someone truly indestructible to survive a magic that’s ingrained in her very bloodline. When she binds herself to a true love that can’t exist, the last thing she expects is for Kara Danvers to turn up and prove her wrong.

    Summary

    Blake has learned to love the viola. The low, rich tones make her feel grounded. Solid. Safe. Drawing her bow across the strings, she can almost forget the broken violin lying in its case beneath her bed.

    The summer before Blake's first semester at Beacon Conservatory, she accepts an invitation to perform as principal violist in a special showcase for the school's donors. She anticipates a simple opportunity to advance her musical career, but when Blake arrives for rehearsals she encounters far more than she expects. Echoes of her past. A long-lost voice. And a mysterious, familiar cellist with kind eyes and the calloused hands of an instrument-maker.

    A Bumbleby musician AU in which instrument making and repair is Very Sexy both literally and metaphorically.
