"Honestly, I had no idea what Winn was thinking when he made the suit with a skirt," Kara says as Lena strokes her hair as they were talking about random topics.

"I thought you liked it?" Lena asked, cocking her head down at the blonde in her lap, a little habit that she picked up from her Super girlfriend.

"Well, I do, yeah, but there are..." Kara trails off, trying to find the right word, her face scrunching up. "Erm, talks and just really uncomfortable things I hear. Sometimes super hearing is a curse," she mutters the last sentence.

Lena strokes her hair back from her face, caressing her temple with her thumb. "I know I can't do anything to the people who talk, but we'll figure something out. We always do."

"Lena Luthor does it all." 

Lena laughed at her. "I try my best."

"I love you, Lee."

Lena grinned. "I love you, too, baby."

"Hey, Alex?" The director turned around and saw Lena coming towards her.

"Lena. What can I do for you?"

"Do you have Kara's measurements?"

Alex cocks an eyebrow with a smirk. "I would've thought you could do that yourself."

Lena rolls her eyes. "Trust me, I would, but she'd get suspicious."

"I'm sure Winn kept them around."

"Yes, indeed, Director Danvers," Brainy said, turning around in his chair as the two women looked at him. "In fact, he kept them in his personal locker here, but moved them to the files under Kara Zor-El before he went to the future with the Legion."

"Thanks, Brainy," Lena said, walking off to the files.

Alex narrowed her eyes at her, catching up to her as they walk down the hallway to the files room. "What are you planning, Luthor? Her wedding dress?"

Lena chuckled. "Not at all, Director. That's what Gambi is for."

Alex's eyes widened as her eyebrows raised and blinked multiple times. "So if you're not planning on marrying my sister-"

"The time will come."

"-then what are you doing?" she asked, leaning up against one of the many file cabinets in the room. 

Lena opened the Z drawer, filing through for Zor-El. "The other day back at home, Kara was complaining about her suit. Saying that super hearing is a curse."

Alex chuckled. "Yeah, she has been disturbed so many times in her life on earth."

"I could imagine. I'm guessing that xenophobes or just plain sexists insult her, and there is no way that I am going to let that stand." She pulled out her file, opening it and looking through for the measurements. 

Alex smiled. "Being the protective girlfriend, much?"

"I genuinely care about her, yes."

"No shit, Sherlock, that's obvious from miles away."

Lena glanced up at her before going back to the papers. "I love her, so of course I'm protective. Got it!" She takes out a piece of paper ripped from a journal containing Kara's measurements. She slightly frowns. "Winn's writing is chicken scratch, but it'll do for what needs to get done."

"Need any help?"

Lena shakes her head as she puts Kara's folder back. "I'll work on it at L-Corp and get Jess and Sam to help if needed. I'll call if I do, though. Just do your job as the best director to come."

"Charmer," Alex mutters as Lena makes her way out.

"You want to make your girlfriend a suit?"

Lena looked at Sam with a furrowed eyebrow. "Do you not approve?"

"No no, of course I do. I just think that it has taken way to long for Kara to say something. Skirts are not ideal for fighting crime."

Lena chuckles at her as she taps at her tablet. "What do you think?" She holds out her tablet for her to see the design. 

Sam grins. "Let's do it."

Almost a month later...

"Kara?" Lena and Sam walk into the training room, seeing Kara in her suit, sparring with Alex as kryptonite emitters were around them.

Kara blocks a hit from her sister and looks over to see them. "Oh, hey." Alex smirked as she took her advantage and punched Kara in the chest, making her stagger back. "Not fair."

"You're easily distracted when it comes to Luthor." Sam snickered while Lena chuckled as Kara turned a shade of pink. Alex turned off the emitters, letting Kara get her strength back. "What's up, guys?"

"Well," Lena started with a grin, eyeing Sam.

"We made you a new suit."

Kara's jaw dropped into a smile. "Shut. Up."

"Well, it was mainly Lena, but- oof!" Sam laughed as she was scooped up into a hug by the Kryptonian.

"Have I ever told you two how much I love you?"

"You tell me all the time," Lena says with a smirk.

"Yeah, yeah, I know. Love you too, Kar. Hey, hey, can I say it?" Sam asks excitedly, pointing over at Alex, who rolls her eyes with a smile, nodding. When Kara puts her back down, Sam grins. "Suit up."

Kara walks back in where the others were waiting to reveal her new suit. The L-Corp duo added burgundy shoulder pads and wrist cuffs, as well as the same colored knee pads and making the front of the calf of the boots the same color, as well. The rest of her legs were now covered up by the same color blue of the top of the suit with the red highlights woven into it, the same gold belt on her hips. No skirt in sight.

Kara grinned

Kara grinned. "It's perfect."

Lena copied her grin as she held up Kara's cape from her old suit. "Only one thing left." She walks over and attaches it to the back, clipping it in perfectly. 

Kara turns her head back to look at her. "Lena Luthor does it all," she says with a grin before kissing her lips, feeling Lena's turn into a smile.

"Well, truth be told, Sam helped, too."

"Thank you!" Sam said loudly for the recognition.

Everyone chuckled. "Feeling better out of that skirt?"

Kara grinned. "Super."

"Oh, God," Alex groaned. "Stop making puns from yourself and go stop a robbery."

Kara kissed her counterpart one more time. "Love you."

"Go kick some ass."

"In a brand new suit, mind you," Sam said, grinning. Kara nodded and flew out and off, more confident and ready for the crimes ahead.
