I've been meaning to tell you something, but it seems at every turn it's just bad timing.
I don't need our standard training, anymore. If I'm going to learn anything, I want to just focus on defense against magic, like what we started with before you were turned into a cat.
[/Wesley Wyndam-Pryce]
[Stephanie Brown]
So... I hope you aren't angry.
[/Stephanie Brown]
[Kara]
I think it's time that we talked.

[ And, later... ]
[Damon Salvatore]
[ Did someone order a break-in? No? Well, she'll have to stay anyway until you say so.
But really, this started as her trying to write something, only to realize he would just ignore it and her, so instead she'll be waiting in a nice chair in his room, reading by a single lamp while a wrapped Christmas present sits in her lap. She's even decked out with a Christmas sweater for kicks.
They will talk whether he likes it or not. ]

Lana
Talked about what?
Kara
[ Well, she hopes it's nothing bad. Lana will be upset if Kara handles this the way Clark did, but it's stupid to keep it secret from a super girl.
She can only hope that Kara and Clark's clashing views will help her this time. ]
But it's important. Can you come by?
Lana
[But her butt is skedaddlin' over, and a few minutes later she's knocking on the door.]
no subject
Sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound dire. That's probably the stress from other problems leaking in.
no subject
It's okay. What's up?
no subject
Um, well, I'm not sure where to start.
[ Leading the way up the stairs so they can sit on the couch. Her nerves are too high-strung for her to think of offering coffee or cider or anything. ]
The Lana in your world, she's as normal as can be, right?
no subject
[Their last bit of drama involved Insect Queens. Kara gives Lana a puzzled look, following her through the place.]
Not in the slightest.
no subject
[ Seriously, all she knows is that she supposedly married Pete and was First Lady and there was some shenanigans involving LuthorCorp... Or is it LexCorp for them?
Cannot keep track. ]
no subject
no subject
It's not relevant. I'm going to get distracted and lose my nerve...
no subject
Lana, you're family to me. Even if this is a different universe thing, the last thing I want is for us to not just... talk. Openly. It never goes well, so you should just tell me.
no subject
Lana hates thinking like that, but she can't help it. The only way to fight a Luthor, to fight any enemy, is to think several steps ahead. Think of all the worst ways it could go, and figure out how to handle it.
Unfortunately, they are all miserable thoughts. ]
You and I might have even more in common than you'd think... Kara, before I came here, I gained all of Clark's powers.
no subject
How?
no subject
While Clark and I were out riding, we discovered some kryptonite. Lightning struck us just as I was trying to throw it away, and, well... His powers transferred. Sort of. He didn't lose them.
no subject
That doesn't even....
What.
Kara just stares for a moment.]
That doesn't even make sense, Lana. We get our powers from our biology, from the yellow sun... lightning can't just change you like that.
no subject
Somehow, the combination of the electric charge and the kryptonite did it, I guess. Don't expect me to understand how it happened, but it did. This is who I am, now.
no subject
So you can do everything we can do?
no subject
[ She doesn't know for sure, it's not like she's seen Clark use all of his powers. ]
no subject
Why haven't you?
no subject
[ But she's honestly not sure. It's not like Clark handed over his diary when she learned what he was. ]
I haven't tried very much, but I don't want to draw that kind of attention to myself. I get around just find without flying.
no subject
[She leans her elbows against her knees.]
I could never think like that. Flying is the best power we have.
no subject
[ She kind of thinks the speed and super strength is the best...not to mention being near invulnerable. Eavesdropping also rocks, but she's been trying not to abuse that since coming to Paradisa. It's hard to pick! ]
Maybe you could help me fine tune my abilities, then. And now when you take me to Insolitus, you don't have to worry about slowing down for me.
no subject
[Smile.]
And yeah, we'll go through that place in no time.
no subject
What exactly is it you do to fly? I mean... Do you just jump? How do you stay afloat?
