           𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀 𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐒 deeply, upon the question, but she has nothing to hide. ❛ A stolen dress. I can explain it! It was one of my very first days wandering here on the land, and a sympathetic lady came at me and  she has beautiful dresses and I could pick one, and changed from what I was using. And she said I have to pay, but I didn’t know what money is. She laughed at me and called me lier, I try to say that I’m not from around here, she didn’t believe me in a few seconds came the guards, and more police came and put me behind the cells, with cuffs, where I was starting dehydrating, unable to walk. Lady Lane came and rescued me. And I had after being released from there. ❜ She commented, as she allowed the raven-haired woman doing her things on her body. ❛ Well, but I was. My training in Atlantis always put me in some ’unnecessary pain’. It is what it is.  ❜ She felt a slightly sting and then once it was removed, she held the cotton on the local where she got an injection. ❛ I was a bit worried in stay behind the bars cells, dehydrating again. ❜

“I imagine that couldn’t have been easy when all you wanted was some dry clothes.” Lena muttered with a small frown. She had hoped sympathy would have won out over profit in the instance of seeing a bedraggled woman but apparently not. “Does Lois know where you came from?” She questioned. She trusted Lois to always put the safety of others over a story - but she also imagined it couldn’t be easy for her to sit on the knowledge of Atlanteans without the ability to publish it. “Well, we’ll do our best to make sure that doesn’t happen. Both with building some precautions for your physiology - and hopefully we can help with you navigate the social cues of this world.”

Thank God for work mode. The pair had a tendency to get immediately stuck in to their work. “I was thinking of using nanotech. Lead’s dense enough to work as a lining to the general suit and it’s not magnetic so it can’t interfere with the radiation blocker. That’ll allow us to make the blocker smaller. Combine it with the nanotech and it’ll fit right in a purse.”

“That could definitely work.” Lena agreed with a pleased smile as she noted down the thoughts. “We’ll need to be careful with the amount of lead though - we don’t it dampening Kara or Clark’s senses to the point they can’t rely on superhearing or x ray vision.” She muttered as she begin scribbling out calculations for what combinations they could use to counteract any issues with the lead. “I like it being compact though - ideally we can attach it to a wearable so they have the quickest possible access to it.”

Grace let out a content moan as she leaned over to rest the side of her head against Lena’s shoulder. ”That’s fine. You can be my bodyguard, hurricane Lena.” she mumbled quietly, nodding her head gently to go along with her words. Sure, her drunk self probably liked everyone at this point, though Grace was sure that she’d like Lena sober too - not just because she’d had too much to drink. “And I’m fine with that because you have a cute smile and you should use it more.”

“I’m not very good at protecting people.” Lena admitted ruefully as she adjusted Grace until she was leaning more comfortably on her shoulder, not wanting the other woman to hurt her neck. “But I do my best at taking care of them, so how about we start with that?” She offered, signalling for someone who looked relatively sober to grab a glass of water for Grace. “Well, thank you. For what it’s worth yours is pretty cute too.” She complimented with a small laugh.

Perenna nodded as Lena spoke, jotting quick notes as she listened. “Your own company, that’s very ambitious. Do you enjoy the work that you do?” Her question countered Lena’s statement, hoping that trust would be built as they spoke more and more. “That’s completely fine, this session is yours to talk about whatever you wish.” She paused to continue listening, making a quick note about resistance to talk about family so she’d remember that for her clinical write-up after their session had ended. She felt the nervous energy that Lena was giving off, looking back up from her notepad. “Sometimes that’s all we need to feel comfortable and supported.” Pausing, she pondered a question, hoping it would help Lena look inward. “Do you think there’s any particular reason you’ve just remained with that small group of people for as long as you have?”

Lena let out a small laugh at the question, almost more of a sigh as she considered it. “Sometimes.” She answered - she did love her work, most of the time. But if she was honest that wasn’t always the case. And taking over LuthorCorp from her brother certainly wasn’t what she envisioned doing when she was younger. “Most of the time, but there are elements of it I don’t enjoy. I think most people can say that about their job, though.” 

She frowned a little in thought at the question posed. She was reticent to trust and open up to people - the fact that she had with Kara and the others was a miracle. Even more so that it encouraged her to do the same with even more people when she arrived on Earth One. “Getting to know new people isn’t easy for me. I’ve... been burned before, by people I let myself close to. It takes time and effort for me to trust people so it doesn’t happen that often.”

Their head jerked up at her voice, the list momentarily forgotten. Does she know-? No. No, of course not. We’re fine. It’s fine. Winn’s lips quirked up in the imitation of a smile as they tried not to worry her any more. “I know. Thank you.”

Clapping their hands together, they quickly jumped to a new subject: science. “So, what d’you wanna work on?”

Lena watched them for a moment after their clipped response, before finally nodding - satisfied, at least, that Winn wasn’t going to completely avoid whatever was bothering them. Even if they didn’t discuss it. “Well, I’ve been working on tweaks to the anti-kryptonite suit - hoping to make it more compact so it doesn’t impede Kara too much in a fight. Think you could help with that? The supersuits the Legionnaires wore looked fairly lightweight.”

𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐘𝐄𝐃immobile when Lena, started to do the procedure with her. ❛ No. I have been behind the cell bars. Lady Lois Lane, helped me to bail me out of prison. This happened in one of my first days here in the land. ❜ She stated, observing Lena tightening her arm. ❛ I don’t fear, you can relax. I’m used to endure pain. ❜ Her training in Atlantis, on how to be a warrior… Her father always told her pain is a sign of weakness. He wasn’t very supportive when she try to training like a warrior, he feared for the faith of her own mother to happen on her.  

“What landed you in prison?” Lena queried with a small laugh as she monitored Mera’s blood pressure, glad to find it at a steady level. She frowned slightly at the woman’s assurance she was used to being hurt, shaking her head slightly as she removed the cuff. “That doesn’t mean you should be put through any unnecessary pain.” She countered, before wiping down the injection point on Mera’s arm, readying a needle to draw her blood. “This will sting.” She warned, even though she knew Mera had told her she could take it, before sinking the needle in and carefully withdrawing once the sample was taken. She quickly pressed a cotton bud to the injection site, applying pressure to help clot it. “I remember you asking me not to call the police when we met.” She noted with a small smile. “I take it you’ve had trouble already since you got here?”

”But I’d make an amazing bodyguard, I swear.” Grace nodded confidently, as if she was really trying to convince Lena to let her provide the protection she needed. Of course, her mind being inebriated meant that she took most things literally, which was also the case with Lena’s next words. She was mentioning bells and naturally, the brunette’s ears perked up almost immediately, “I’m supposed to be ringing anything? Wedding bells? Are you getting married?!”

“I’m sure you would - but I have plenty of bodyguards, trust me.” Lena chuckled with a small shake of her head. She blinked in confusion at the question posed seemingly out of nowhere - panicking when for a brief second the word ‘wedding’ conjured thoughts of Alex before she quickly packed those thoughts up tight in a box and pushed it far back in her mind until she was ready to digest them. “I- no. Wow, you’ve really had a lot to drink haven’t you?” She laughed a little too forcefully as she quickly tried to divert away from that subject. “I think rather than becoming my bodyguard we should find you some water and a place to nap.”

Lena was lucky as this would go right over Grace’s head in her drunk state. She wouldn’t remember this story come tomorrow, which put the other woman in the clear - unless she wanted Grace to know all of this about her? ”You killed the man you love?” she tilted her head curiously while looking Lena over, lips pursing over to one side as if she was trying to process the information she’d been given. “And you have an insane brother? Okay, all of that is the opposite of my life. Where’s your brother now? Is he gonna come after you? I’ll protect you if you’re not safe!”

“Yeah.” Lena muttered at the question. She couldn’t bring herself to say more. She had loved Jack, and she had failed him. It didn’t matter how many years passed, that she had finally managed to feel safe loving someone else. It would haunt her until her grave. “No idea. And he probably will.” She gave a weak chuckle at the thought. She was under no illusion that Lex was done with her. “That offer is... very sweet, but I don’t want anyone else getting hurt because of me. So, no protection service for you.” She tried to inject levity in her tone, give it somewhat of a joking lilt. But she wasn’t sure how successful she was. “Whatever you’ve done, Grace. I guarantee you it couldn’t phase me after everything. And I like to think by now I’m a good judge of character. I know how to spot bad people... and you’re not ringing any alarm bells for me.”

They toyed with a loose tool that was sat on one of the benches, fiddling absently. They sent her a smile in thanks, unable to verbally reply. If they focused too much on it, they got pulled back into the nightmare, trapped in that loop of pain. They couldn’t go through that, not again. “Well, here’s to the protectors, then.” They raised the tool in salute, focusing adamantly on the objects around them. Tool, bench, weird device #1, cool thing #2. They couldn’t go back, not there, not when there were other people there.

“To the protectors.” Lena followed the mock salute, raising her now drained coffee cup in a toast, before watching Winn for a moment. A small frown tugged at her eyebrows as she watched them meticulously take stock of their surroundings. It might not have flagged up to most people, but Lena recognised a coping mechanism when she saw one, having to adopt plenty of her own. “You know if you ever need to talk about anything...” She let the offer hang, trying to leave it as casual as possible, wary not to press too hard.

If I had a nickel for every time Katie McGrath played a repressed magic user, I would have 2 nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but weird it happened twice.

as lena wore her pin, carrie proudly did the same. her eyes watched as every competitor seemed to scatter - as if they couldn’t out to leave. “do you want lunch?” carrie blurted out as she turned to lena again, “there’s a nice deli nearby. the cold cuts are kinda questionable but they’re worth it. and they have really good grape slushies.” not exactly gourmet, nor the cuisine she was sure the CEO was used to – but it was one of her favorite spots, and the participants seemed to be scattering for the stale finger foods provided at the buffet. “beats a day old bagel?”

Lena’s head shot up, almost startled, at the offer, blinking in surprise for a moment before a small smile tugged at her lips. “I’d love to grab lunch.” She agreed with a nod, chuckling a little at Carrie’s not quite glowing review of the nearby deli. “It does indeed. Besides, I haven’t eaten anything questionably delicious since college - I kind of miss the risk.” She joked.
