    "But in loving, Leander the good swimmer, Troilus the first employer of panders, and a whole bookful of these quondam carpetmongers, whose names yet run smoothly in the even road of a blank verse, why, they were never so truly turned over and over as my poor self in love." - Benedick, Much Ado About Nothing, Act V, Scene II

    Summary

    The idle thought at the back of Glinda’s mind is that Nessarose never talked about her sister as beautiful.

    She shakes herself to stop those thoughts, knowing she can’t have them, and instead gives Elphaba a smile. “Congratulations,” she says sweetly. “Nessarose never told me how talented you were.”

    “Thank you,” Elphaba says, and takes a sip of her champagne. “So kind of you to come over when there are still reporters watching.”

    “I...I didn’t-”

    Summary

    Lena Luthor tries really hard not to be swept up in the charms of the super friendly, sports playing, popular, Kara Danvers the second she meets her and pretty much epically fails.

    -- or

    Lena doesn't want to get hurt again. Kara doesn't walk away that easily and eventually they fool themselves that they're friends. Best friends. Secret best friends that go on friend dates.
    With Lillian and Lex Luthor somehow doing their best to deprive Lena of any chance of happiness in her life and Lena's own hardened defences, they will face plenty of challenges as they work out exactly what they mean to each other.
