“Oh hey” You say when you see Jamie walking towards you.
“Don’t ‘oh hey’ me.” Jamie says rolling her eyes.
“I see you got my note.” You point at her hand and she frowns in response.
“Of course I got your note, you taped it in to my forehead while I was sleeping.” She opens the note and does her best impression of you. “Dear Jamie, come alone to the training center, I need your help. Signed: Little Danvers.”
“Yeah.” You smile proud of your ability of sneaking into her bedroom, and not waking anyone up. Jamie breathes heavily, not very proud of you.
“You couldn’t wake me up and like, fly me here?”
“I guess.” You actually didn’t think about that. “But then I wouldn’t have anything to do with the note, and it was already written.”
“You could’ve, I don’t know, thrown it away?” She shakes her head and her hand goes to her forehead. “Why are we here? Why are we not at school?”
“Oh right, this is very important.” You point to the chair next to you, and wait until she’s seated. “Do you remember an imp from the fifth dimension called mister mxflafopolis?”
“What?” Jamie thinks about it for a second. “Wait, you mean Mister Mxyzptlk?”
“How do you do that? With your tongue?” You ask and then spend five minutes, with Jamie’s help, trying to pronounce his name, unsuccessfully.
“Oh my God, we’re wasting time! Just tell me why I’m here.” She finally snaps.
“Right, well mister whatever his name is, came to me last night and he had an interesting proposal. So, he said-”
“Nope. Bad idea.” She interrupts you.
“You don’t even know what it is!”
“He’s an imp from another dimension, dipshit, I don’t have to listen to it to know it’s bad.” Jamie gets up from the chair mentioning that she’s about to leave.
“Ok, but just hear me out.”
“No! I want nothing to do with it.” Jamie looks back at you. “I know you long enough to know that you’re going to do something stupid. So, the less I know, the less I can say when I’m being interrogated by our moms.”
“But-but, Jamie! You have to know! What if he double crosses me or something?”
“Do you even hear yourself? If there’s a chance for him to double cross you, do you actually think it’s a good idea?” She asks and you know she’s right. You know better than to trust an imp. You’re much, much smarter than that. But then again, you’re also not.
“Fine, fine.” You say so you can ease her mind. “Come on, I’ll fly us to school so we’re not late.”
“Actually, my mama is waiting outside in the car.”
“I thought I told you to come alone.”
“How would you expect me to get here without her help?” You roll your eyes thinking you should’ve picked her up, so aunt Kelly wouldn’t have anything to do with it. But in the end, as you sat in the backseat of her momvan, she just asks if everything is alright and takes you both to school without further questions. Maybe she, too, knows that the less she knows the better.
The whole way there you could only think about the proposal. He wants to show you your future. You are desperate to know. You need to know what you’ll become. You need to know what you’ll choose: science, powers, or something else completely.
Jamie doesn’t understand, well, she didn’t hear the proposal in the first place. But even if she had, she probably wouldn’t understand. You’re asked so much; people expect so much from you. You NEED to know if you will live up to their expectations. You need to know that if you choose to become a superhero, that Lena wouldn’t be disappointed, or the other way around.
So, before you even realize, it’s decided. You’re going to take him on his offer. You’re going to the future. And the only thing he said it was a rule is that you have to stay there for two days. Easy peasy.
“Mister mxytopolopolis.” You call him as soon as you’re back home from school. He doesn’t come. “Oh Rao, what was his name again?” You look at the paper he left you and the instructions that say ‘just call my name’. “Ok, let’s try this again. Mister Mxytlk… No wait. Mxyztelk? Shit! That’s not it. Mister Mxyzptlk!”
And just like that he is in front of you.
“I’m interested. Let’s do it. Let’s go to the future!”
“Well, actually, dear. You’re going to the future. I’ll go pick you up in two days like we agreed on.” He says and you shake your head agreeing.
“Wait, wait, wait. But what if-” But before you’re finished, he pushes you through a portal and you drop high from the sky on the ground.
You look around, still lying on the floor. You are still in National City, and you’re lying on the ground of a park. There are people walking, talking and laughing. You look at the buildings and frown. Everything looks exactly the same. The future doesn’t look really futuristic, and you wonder how many years into the future you are.
“Hey kid. You dropped really high from that tree. Are you ok?” You smile at your momma all dressed in her Supergirl suit. She doesn’t look much older, but you know she ages at a different pace.
“I’m ok, momma.” You smile supporting yourself on your elbow so you can sit down. She quickly holds your arm and helps you up.
“Are you sure, kid?” She asks and you shake your head agreeing. “’Cause you just called me momma.” She looks around. “Are you lost? Is your mom here?”
“What?” You ask confused and she smiles.
“I’m Supergirl, kid. C’mon. I’ll help you look for your mom.” She reaches out to you and you stand up. “Was she here with you?”
“Are you kidding me?” You ask dumbfounded. “You don’t know me?”
“No. Should I?” Kara asks and you look around. Heart racing and a lot of questions racing through your mind. Why doesn’t Kara know who you are? She must’ve listened to your heartbeat, because her hands go to your shoulders. “Hey, hey, calm down. It’s ok. Did you hit your head? I can take you to the hospital.”
“No. No. I’m-I’m ok.” You say, letting yourself go of her, and walking backwards. “Really, thank you for your help Supergirl. I should get going.” You point at your watch. “I should be in school.”
“Wait.” Kara holds your forearm and furrows her brows. She is looking at the watch and you hold your breath. “Where did you get that?”
“Oh, the watch? It’s, um, family heirloom.” You’re scared she might open it and see it’s actually the super watch, so you have to distract her. You look at her hand. There’s a ring, she’s married. “I didn’t know Supergirl was married.”
She smiles while nodding, and she also looks at her ring getting distracted from the watch thing. You finally let out a breath.
“Do you have kids?”
“I don’t.” She then looks right into your eyes. “That’s so weird, you look so familiar. You kind of look like me when I was young.” You smile at the compliment. Then stop yourself. “What’s your name, kid?”
“Uh, my name? Um…” You look around. You can’t tell her your real name, you don’t know what year you’re in, and she seems confused with your existence. And she just said she doesn’t have kids. Wait. She doesn’t have kids?
“Did you forget your own name?” She looks worried. The crinkle in her forehead is almost showing and you blurt out before it does. You hate when she gets worried.
“No! I know my name. My name is Le…” Don’t say Lena, dumbass! She probably knows who Lena is. “Lexa!”
Really? All the names in the universe and you decided to go with a variation of Lex? Gross.
“Oh, well, nice to meet you, Lexa.” She smiles and you can’t help but smile too.
“You too, Supergirl! You are very nice. Well, I should go now. Thanks for the help and all. Have a great day! Ok, bye.” You run as fast as you can, but it’s not so fast that Kara would notice that you have powers. You stop in an alley nearby and breathe heavily. What is happening? When exactly in the future did Mxylopolik send you anyway? And if you’re really in the future, why doesn’t Kara know about your existence?
Ok, first things first. You need to find out what year you’re in, but you are very aware that it would be very strange if you just grabbed someone at random and asked them what year it is. No, you need another way to know.
You get out of the alley and see someone about your age coming in your direction. Ok, don’t be weird, don’t freak him out.
“Hey. Sorry. Hope I’m not disturbing you, I just… Someone just robbed me, and I was wondering if I could use your phone to call my mom.”
“Yeah. Sure.” The guy unlocks his phone and hands it to you. You go to the calendar very fast and check the date. Ok, you are two years in the future. So, you were supposed to be 17. You give back his phone. “Aren’t you going to call?”
“Oh. I don’t have her phone memorized. Isn’t it weird how we just don’t remember numbers anymore? Anyways, thanks for your help, you’re very kind.” You wave goodbye and he just stares at you for a few seconds and then resumes walking.
So, you are in the future. But how is this your future if Kara doesn’t have any kids? I mean, she’s still married, but is she married to your mom or is this some alternative reality? You need to go see Lena.
The receptionist at L Corp doesn’t know who you are, you don’t know who she is either. She doesn’t want to let you go inside, so you distract her enough and use your superspeed to get into the elevator. When you get to the last floor, you look for your mom’s assistant. She isn’t at her desk. This might be a stroke of luck.
You see Lena’s name on the door. So, this isn’t an alternative reality where she isn’t the CEO anymore, which is good. You knock and she calls you in.
“Hey.” You don’t want to call her mom, if she doesn’t remember you that would be very hard to explain.
“Can I help you?” Lena takes one look at you and you’re sure. She has no idea who you are. Your heart drops in your chest, and you can feel the tears coming.
“Oh. Um. Yes, Mrs. Luthor.” You have to think of something. “I’m, well, my name is…” What was the name you made up again? “Lexa. And I’m…Um…”
“Did my assistant send you in?” She looks confused, and you feel the same way. What the fuck is happening? Why do your moms don’t remember you in the future? You feel so alone.
“I-I just have a question. About science. And you’re the smartest person on the planet, so I thought you would be the only one who could answer it.”
“Well, I don’t know about me being the smartest person on the planet.” Lena says with a chuckle. “But take a seat, Lexa. Let me see if I can help you.” She points at the chair in front of her and you breathe in relief. You were almost sure she was going to call security and throw you out. You look at her hand and there’s also a ring.
“Ok, let’s just say time travel exists…” You see her looking confused at the way you started, but she lets you continue. “And I don’t know, let’s say I go to the future.”
“There’s a lot of pretending in your scenario.”
“Right. But my question is… Do I stop existing in my own timeline?” You ask and she opens her mouth to answer, but nothing comes out. “You know, ‘cause, if my future is now my present, then my present becomes my past.”
“Yes.” She agrees so you can keep going.
“Right. So, if I left my present that is now my past then I cease to exist in the past. And I’m no longer in my timeline. That means, I only exist in this timeline, therefore no one remembers me, because I’m only existing here and now in the future, that is, you know, actually my present.”
“What is this for, again?” She asks and you scramble your brain for a good excuse. You were so distracted with how good your mom will look in two years. It’s kind of weird that she has a few grey hairs already, but she is totally pulling it off.
“School project. Y’know, I’m trying to prove that time travel doesn’t work, but I need a specialist opinion.” But apparently time travel works. Just not in a very nice way.
“I’m sorry to say that I’m no specialist in time travel.” Lena smiles. “But you seem to be going in the right direction. Just, um, maybe don’t speak like that in front of your classmates if you don’t want to get bullied.”
“Oh, it’s too late for that.” You smile shyly and she chuckles.
“How old are you, Lexa?”
“Fifteen.”
“Here.” She gives you her card. “When you turn eighteen, if you’re still into science like that, give me a call and you can come work for me.”
You want to tell her that you already work for her. That you have a whole lab for yourself. You want to stay here and keep talking to your mom, but you know she’s minutes away to ask you to leave. And since she has no idea who you are, she was already kind enough to waste her time on you. You take a look around the office quickly and you see a picture of your moms smiling at each other. At least that is still right in the future.
“Thank you, Mrs. Luthor. For your time, and kindness, and the card.” You smile putting it in your pocket. “You’re very nice. Have a great day!”
“You too, kid!” Lena smiles and you leave feeling like you got nowhere. Is your theory right? Did you stop existing to them?
You leave L Corp and go into an alley.
“Mister Mxy-freaking-polik.” Fucking shit. What was that asshole’s name again? Thankfully, his card is still in your pocket. You read it slowly. “Mister Mxyzptlk!”
He doesn’t come, and you know for sure that you said his name right. Rao, this is why you should never trust an imp.
Notes:
Am I writing a bunch of nonsense? Possibly. Please stay with me either way :)
A blatant disregard for context as someone who hasn’t watched the show since season 3

10/10, It should have been 12/10 but it was homophobic that there was no forehead kiss
Why are the bbs so sad?? What did I miss?? Keep hugging it out :(
A+ comfort grade for squishing their ears to each other’s faces like that, all the better to feel the soothing vibration of speech
Also hand on the neck/shoulder junction always makes me swoon

It’s very secksi and gay of Lena to always be perfectly groomed, made-up & accessorized, but have fingernails that are always very short and unadorned 👀
