    Summary

    “Yeah, unless I don’t finish my degree.” It’s a grumpy little mumble, barely meant for Yelena, but she responds to it nevertheless.

    “What do you mean?“ she demands. “You only have a small amount of time left! Why would you stop now?”

    “I don’t know,” Kate murmurs, and Yelena is bewildered to hear a faint echo in her own emptiness, coming from nearly six thousand kilometers away. “I just don’t really know what to do now, I guess. Clint says I’m the new Hawkeye, but that’s not official or anything. And even when it is, it’s going to be a lot of training. So I’m waiting to wait, or something, and — and I don’t know why I’m talking to you about this, actually.”

    “Sometimes, it’s nice to just talk,” Yelena thinks and then says. “But I don’t think you should drop out of school, Kate Bishop. School is cool.”

    /

    (Yelena decides to go to college. It just so happens to be the same one Kate Bishop attends.)

    Summary

    Lena Luthor is a riddle hiding in plain sight — a young CEO with too much brilliance, too much discipline, and far too many secrets stitched beneath her immaculate composure. The world sees a prodigy. Kara Danvers sees the spark under the steel.

    What begins as casual encounters turns into something magnetic: shared dinners in the quiet of Lena’s office, laughter slipping through the cracks of exhaustion, the slow warmth of a friendship that feels dangerously like fate. Lena is drawn to the precision of Kara’s hands, the sharpness of her mind, the soft, surprising humanity she exposes like a heart outside the chest.

    And somewhere between potstickers, late-night confessions, and the shimmering line between magic and the ordinary, Lena realizes she might be falling — in love, into the gravity of a woman who was never meant to be ordinary.

    Summary

    Yelena Belova wasn’t someone who got attached easily. She had been trained to silence emotions, sever ties, disappear. She was a Black Widow, after all.
    But there was something —someone— she couldn’t get out of her head: Kate Bishop.

    After that night on the rooftop, when she failed to complete her mission to eliminate Clint Barton thanks to (or because of) that irritatingly optimistic archer, Yelena hadn’t planned on ever hearing from either of them again.
    But Kate clearly had other plans.

    It started with short messages: “Thanks again for what you did about my mom,” “I know you probably won’t read this, but…”
    Then came the photos —a new café she’d discovered, her getting ready to graduate from college, a dog (Yelena assumed it was the same one the archer rescued at Christmas) wearing a ridiculous scarf.
    Small, ordinary things that a normal person might send.
    Yelena read every single one. Without replying.Without deleting the number.She didn’t know why.

    Basically, what happens after Hawkeye and during the events of Thunderbolts. How Yelena and Kate begin a friendship, and as their bond grows stronger, how Yelena deals with these new and confusing feelings toward Kate.

    Summary

    “Analysis complete. Results show elevated hCG levels.”

    “No, no, no,” Lena mumbled, icy fear sliding down her spine and coiling in her stomach as a jolt of panic ran through her. “That can’t be correct. It must be a contaminated sample.”

    Scrambling for a sealed test tube waiting on a rack, Lena opened a metal drawer and rummaged through the neatly arranged medical supplies to pull out another packaged needle. Making a tourniquet around her left arm, Lena sat down on a stool and eyed the pale skin at the crook of her elbow, threaded through with bluish-green veins, and tore the needle open with her teeth.

    “Miss Luthor, the sample is not contaminated. Results show increased blood volume, and physical symptoms of your illness coincide with early gestational symptoms of pregnancy. By my calculations, you should be six-”

    “I’m not pregnant,” Lena snapped, her voice breaking as she shot to her feet, needle clutched in her hand and tourniquet slowing the blood supply to her left arm. “It’s- it’s indicative of a uterine infection, or a- a tumour. Ovarian cancer. But I am not pregnant. It would have to be an immaculate conception.”
