“I’m home.”
I probably enjoyed this "quick sketch" a little too much.
9-1-1 ▸ inspired by this post by @buddie-actually + bonus:
Richard Savoie.
Lena Luthor
tragedy as a genre asks us repeatedly “why did this have to happen?”. why did medea kill her children? why did lear reject the only daughter who truly loved him? why cant estragon and vladimir simply walk away? we can accept the idea that these are events made inevitable by some facet of the characters personalities. we can argue that circumstances forced their hand. but ultimately we dont have these answers and thats why i think tragedy. is a genre so given to retellings and repetition. the why is tantalizing — maybe if we play it again, we can figure out where it went wrong. so anyways as always we’re back at hadestown’s “its a sad song, but we sing it anyway. to know how it ends, and still begin to sing it again, as if it might turn out this time …”
Allow me to stare at this Luthor beauty. (6x08)
and Kara's gay awakening will be when they end up undercover at gala and Lena shows up in her suit.
What if we start this all over but this time Katie plays the nerdy friend who helps Kara from the beginning?
Bonus: and she usually looks like this.
“Your vitals are back,” Alex sweeps into the MedBay, black leather boots scuffing the shiny floors. She shifts her weight to the side, a stack of files balanced in one hand. “Everything seems fine.”
“Phew,” Kara says out loud, kicking her feet back and forth on one of the gurneys under a solar array. “No infections? No cancer? No blood-eating fungi?”
“Nope,” Alex pops the ‘p.’ “It still bothers me, though. The pollen spray was obviously a defensive measure, and in one of the interrogation rooms no less. It doesn’t make sense that it wouldn’t do anything.”
Alex bites at her pen cap, quickly thumbing through the thick file one more time.
“Maybe I’m resistant,” Kara shrugs. “At least everyone’s not clawing to have sex with me.”
Alex’s eyes lance up from the file.
Wait.
Did Kara just say that out loud?

i don’t like how endings in real life come on so suddenly without making sense, without much warning. one minute you’re in the middle of something and the next it’s all a very long time ago and you’re a different person and none of it is ever coming back
