Oh, it's so good to be home. :) Hopefully it reflects in the writing!

Lena finds out what Kara's been up to, misery loves company, and J'onn has a bad day.

Lena frowned, watching the translated Kryptonese words shimmer in the air. "So this is the reason why Mon-El wants to kill you."

"Basically," Kara sighed.

"May I speak freely?"

"Of course you can."

"You loved an idiot." Kara didn't answer, and Lena turned to see Kara look down at the ground and chew her lip while both Oliver and Sara gave her death glares. "All I'm saying is anyone that truly knows Kara or Supergirl knows that Kara doesn't like to kill. At all. Which is why I'm saying Mon-El is an idiot for wanting to kill her when she doesn't like to kill."

"And because I never realized he was putting on an act," Kara sighed.

"Anyone can put on an act," Lena shrugged, walking over to her. "You having to be both Kara and Supergirl, me having to be the CEO of L-Corp and try to give the Luthor name a better rep . . . and Mon-El pretending to be a better guy when he's actually a bastard."

Sara grinned. "I like you. Ollie, can we keep her?"

"I suppose," Oliver chuckled.

"Um, no," Kara shook her head. "She's coming back to Earth-38 with me when this is all over."

Lena rolled her eyes fondly. "If you bring me back to Earth-38, I can help you deal with mother dearest."

"Now that sounds like a deal," Sara smirked.

"So, Daxamites aside," Lena folded her arms. "As much as I want to punch Mon-El in the face as soon as possible, it sounds like you've got something else to worry about . . . and I have yet to meet, um . . . whoever Barry is."

"How do you know about Barry?" Oliver frowned.

"Mr. Olsen mentioned him in the conversation I overheard," Lena answered easily. "Why? Is he OK?"

"Uh, the reason he's not here is because he's kind of the something else we're worrying about currently," Kara scratched the back of her head.

Lena frowned. "I'm sorry?"

"Barry's a speedster, and speedsters have the ability to create duplicates of themselves," Sara explained. "One of Barry's duplicates from the future is an evil speedster that will kill his fiancée in about a month."

"Oh," Lena swallowed. "That's – "

"Bad," Oliver nodded. "Which is why Barry isn't here, because everything he knows, so does Savitar. Which means if he hears the plan we're making to stop Savitar – "

"Savitar knows the plan and therefore can form a plan of his own to make sure yours doesn't work," Lena finished.

"I really like her," Sara grinned.

Lena smirked slightly. "I'm happy to know I won't be kicked out."

"Definitely not," Oliver shook his head. "A true friend of Kara's is a friend of ours."

Lena noted the small smile that formed on Kara's face at those words and made a mental note to ask Winn about who Oliver Queen was later. "So what have you got so far on Savitar?"

Kara cleared her throat, straightening up. "Well, right now, we've basically got the end of the plan worked out," she said, pulling a disc-like object out of her boot. "We get Savitar to Earth-38, I activate this, and I toss him into the Phantom Zone."
