Summary
The facts were these: Kara Zor-El didn’t touch dead things, didn’t tell anyone why, and absolutely did not use her very unusual ability on anyone she actually cared about.
She breaks all three rules at Lena Luthor’s funeral.
OR
Kara could bring the dead back to life. For a minute. Or longer.
(Inspired by the TV show Pushing Daisies.)

Summary
Lena Luthor desperately needs to get to National City for the most important meeting of her career. Enter Captain Kara Danvers: owner of a private jet and the most gorgeous smile Lena's ever seen. But when a freak accident downs their plane and leaves them stranded on a deserted island, the two of them clash again and again. Yet the longer they rely on each other, the harder it becomes to pretend the tension between them is just frustration.
----
Full disclosure: this isn't a new fanfic. I wrote this one ("Beyond Reason") a few years ago, but that was one of my first fics and I cringe when I see it. So I'm rewriting it.

Summary
“I think you should be my caddie,” Lena says, on her sixth day in Midvale. She realizes maybe her phrasing isn’t entirely clear. “What I mean is, I want you to be my caddie.”
“I am your caddie,” Kara says, then looks up from where she’s been reading the grass, a teasing smile on her lips. “Right now, even.”
or
Lena finds her new caddie on a golf course in the middle of nowhere, and then, she finally starts winning trophies.

Summary
Dani Clayton is six years old when the O’Mara family moves in across the street. The world, for the most part, makes perfect sense in ways that will unravel in two short years. She understands the suburban block on which she’s lived her entire life, the breadth of her father’s hands, the shine of her mother’s eyes. She understands everything.
She is six, and the world makes perfect sense, and the world will make sense forever.
(Or: AU in which Jamie is taken in by the O'Mara family, and Dani grows up wedged between two best friends with dark hair, learning slowly how to fall in love.)

Summary
“We’re in this together, you know that right? I won’t ever let you—”
“I created something.”
Kara blinked twice. “Okay?”
Lena took a couple of steps back from her. She wrung her hands together, clearly nervous about the supposed objection she was going to have to this new creation. “Don’t tell me you created a time machine.”
Lena didn’t laugh. “Not exactly.”
That felt ominous. “Well, then what exactly?”
“I’ve…invented a way to…”
She could hear Lena’s heart beating wildly, which was only causing hers to quicken as well. She reached out for Lena’s hands again, but Lena pulled back. And she watched as Lena put up a wall between them.
“A way to…forget you.”
OR
Lena and Kara erase each other from their memories, only to meet again.

Summary
because lena luthor – despite her family’s very best efforts – is a good person, she does not spend the night thinking impure thoughts about sports bras and yoga mats and thighs that could probably, given half the chance, crack her skull like a walnut.

Summary
"And you are?" Lena says, holding her hand out to shake. Kara takes it, and puts in every effort not to crush it in her nervousness. Lena's hand is dry and cold where Kara's is uncomfortably hot.
"Kara Danvers," Kara says, putting on her best smile. "Reporter. It's great to meet you, I think we really – "
"Ah, Kara Danvers. The newest addition to the roster, and yet one who has her own private office on the 21st floor," Lena interrupts.
OR
How would early season 3 look if Lena and Kara didn't meet until after Lena bought CatCo, and Lena thought Kara was a total nepo baby?

Summary
“It’s a lot easier for me to keep my grip on you when I can actually feel your body.”
The phrase feel your body said in Kara’s voice rattles around in Lena’s head like a pinball machine, but she manages to shrug her sweater off and throw it somewhere behind them before she can second-guess herself. Kara is looking comfortable in a loose white t-shirt, and when she takes Lena by the waist and puts Lena’s hand on her shoulder the texture of it is light and soft.
“Let’s start from square one,” Kara says, so kindly that her next words take a few seconds to register in Lena’s brain. She tightens her grip on Lena’s waist, and says with full confidence:
“Dancing is a lot like sex.”
OR
Against her better judgement Lena agrees to compete on Dancing with the Stars for the PR boost. When her chemistry with her partner Kara gets misconstrued by the press, there’s obviously only one solution.
AKA, a Dancing with the Stars/Fake Dating AU.

Summary
“My poor darling,” Lena says, teases. “Do you just go around licking anyone that smells like fruit?”
“No, I—I. Um.” Quiet. A steadying breath. “Now you’re just teasing me,” Kara murmurs, a dusting of red high on her cheeks. Lena’s delighted.
“First, you come into my home unexpectedly,” Lena says, and Kara whispers-justifies a quiet yeah, to cuddle, “and now you lick my neck. What’s next?”
Or, here's the thing: Lena has been in love with Kara for a long time. If Kara knows, then Kara doesn’t seem to mind.

Summary
“Please,” Lena says, shrugging her shoulders. “You know you’re my favourite. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. You’re my favourite. You’re acting like this is brand new information.”
And that's—
Wow. To hear Lena say this, to know that this still holds true even after everything that has happened… Kara flushes. She fiddles with her belt, exhales softly.
or Lena is a terrible enabler. Kara wants anything and everything Lena will give her, and underneath the weight of such gentle, earnest warmth, it keeps escaping Kara why that is dangerous.

Summary
The longer Lena stands in her bedroom, her still-wet hair slowly dripping onto the hardwood, the more she wonders whether screaming will make her feel any better. She’s been waiting for this phone call for the last twenty-four hours and now she's staring at the missed call banner. Somehow she already knows that calling back isn’t going to work out in her favor, so instead she closes her eyes and clicks on the voicemail.
“Hi Lena, this is Kara Danvers! I got your messages, all seven of them. I’m so sorry that we didn’t have a chance to sit down this week in person, although it sounds like you’ve had your hands full at work. I have some stuff I need to take care of before we leave, so I’ll have to meet you at the airport. Since I’m cutting it a little close, I’ll send a courier to pick up my ticket from you this afternoon. And Lena? Take a deep breath. This is all going to be fine. Your ex-fiancée will wish she’d never left you and your family will think we’re in love. Trust me. Look, I’ve got to go, but I’ll see you at the airport. Can’t wait to meet you.”
