Two nights later, in the other universe, the Super Friends were at the alien bar.

- "The trial of Lillian Luthor continued today." A reporter said on TV. "Luthor, the suspected head of the anti-alien terrorist organization, Cadmus, has been charged with a host of crimes, including the use of a bioweapon in an attempted extermination of all aliens in National City.

- "That woman is bad news." Mon-El walked up behind the heroines.

- "Definitely." Maddie nodded.

- "I hope once she's convicted, they, uh..." The Matthews man walked behind the bar to continue to work. "They put her out on the town square for public shaming. On Daxam, it really seemed to cut back on recidivism."

- "Uh, well, that kind of punishment actually went away a long time ago." Kara said.

- "That's too bad." The Daxamite replied, making the heroines chuckle. "Yeah, I haven't, uh... Haven't seen you in a while."

- "I've... I've been busy." The Danvers woman lied.

- "Yeah?" Mon-El raised his eyebrows.

- "Just chasing bad guys." The Kryptonian chuckled.

That chuckle sounded really natural. The Matthews girl looked at her best friend, across the room.

I know! She should learn how to hide her feelings better. Mia nodded.

The quadbrid walked up to her.

- "Uh, how are you?" Kara asked. "How's Eve?"

- "Oh, great." The Matthews man lied. "Great, we are... We're great. Eve is great. Things are great."

This is painful. Maddie pointed at the two from across the room.

Yep. The Krillin woman replied.

- "I'm so happy for you." The Danvers woman said.

- "More drinks for you guys?" The Daxamite questioned.

- "Yeah, please, I would... We would love..." The Kryptonian walked away.

- "Yup. Um, yup." Mon-El turned to the drinks behind him.

- "Another round's on its way." Kara said as she sat at the table with her friends. "You okay, J'onn?"

- "Yeah, yeah." J'onn replied. "It's just the first time I've been in this bar since, uh M'gann left."

- "Hey, I'm... I am very excited to meet Alex's new mystery man." Winn said.

Man. Xandar smiled as he drank his beer. Right.

How stupid of them to assume it's a guy. The Agotarian woman snickered.

The Matthews girl nodded.

- "Hey, do we know what, um, what he does for a living? Alex's guy?" James asked.

- "Cop." The younger Danvers replied.

- "Oh!" The Schott man scoffed, amused. "Yeah, no way Alex Danvers dates someone who doesn't own a firearm."

- "Hey, you guys." Alex walked in with her girlfriend. "Hey, um... You all remember Maggie, right?"

The eyes of the two humans widened.

- "Hey, yeah." The Olsen man said. "Good to see you again."

- "Alex!" The tech guy chuckled, before raising his hands. "I... I didn't know. Did you know?" He looked at the four telepaths.
