Mornings On Earth-38. // Kara’s Apartment

“Hey, that’s kinda cool,” Nate perks up, finger still pointing at the words on the screen; it is an article someone had posted a couple years back detailing the miraculous rescue of a failing aircraft. “It says here you saved a plane as your opening act as Supergirl?” He mouths ‘A plane?!’ to Kara who merely giggles and stuffs another fork-full of pancakes in her mouth.

“Yup!” she says through syrupy batter. Her head shakes vigourously up and down.

“I mean, I stopped a train loaded with Dwarf Star,” he adds, “but to each their own.” He ducks his head back down to the article, hoping Kara might catch his concealed humour.

“Are you jealous, Nathaniel?” she says, a smirk forming along those perfect lips. There is a smile in her eyes, as there always is and as Nate always comes to expect when around her, and he finds himself sinking into the gorgeous blue.

“I’m just comparing notes, that’s all,” he says, but he finally breaks his gaze away from the screen to give her a grin. A small grin, yet a pleasant one. One that both parts concludes his bout of humour and thanks her for the pancakes. “You are a hard one to live up to. I’m just trying to be half as cool.”

The hummed laughter he stirs up from her is worth paying her with all the compliments in the world.
