( It's late, but she's been thinking about this almost continuously for a month. So when her image appears on the screen, the glasses are absent and the 'S' is displayed proudly across her chest. The look on her face is serious, because timey-wimey stuff is a pain in the neck.

And speaking of: )

Hi. So, it's been made clear as crystal to me that I've been here before, and some of you remember me.

( Whether they knew her as herself or Supergirl remains to be seen; but that's what she's trying to figure out. )

I'm wondering if you guys can let me know how many times I've been here, if we were allies. Friends? If we were at each other's throats, even. I have no idea, and that feels really weird.

Anyway, I— ( A siren sounds in the distance, and the images blurs significantly as she takes to the air. ) —oops. Gotta go!

( And the transmission ends. )

I haven't met you here, but have back home. Or... a version of you? Technically two versions, I guess. And I know your cousin.

[ex_clobbers559]

Two versions, wow! Were they like... me? Gosh, that sounds silly just to say.

( Oh, that gets her attention. Kara's gaze meets hers, emotion vividly shining through. )

How was he, last you saw him?

[zee_zatara]

I haven't had the opportunity to get to know you well enough to say more than what the looked like. One of them was just about identical, I'd say. The other- was probably more like a sister, genetically speaking.

And he was good! He gave me a lift home after I was hurt in the field and couldn't manage a teleport spell.

More like a sister—did she happen to go by the name of Karen while not in her super... or I guess power suit?

( Her expression softens, and she nods with a wistful smile. )

Yeah, that sounds like my cousin all right. I'm glad he was there for you. If you ever need help, you can count on me in the same way.

[zee_zatara]

Yeah, Kara Zor-L, or Karen Starr. She and I end up on a lot of the same gossip blogs- the ones just a little too obsessed with our costumes.

Yeah, and the same to you- if you need help with anything to do with magic, give me a shout. Or, you know, just- fly over and find me.

Wait, you mean the you I've been talking to isn't the same you that got Ace off the ceiling our first day?

video; private

[ex_clobbers559]

I don't remember that, so I don't think so. Might've been a me from further ahead or behind in the timeline?

I wish I could remember that. I'm sorry.

[aboveand]

You probably wouldn't. That was the day we--uh, me and other you, I guess--found out Ace has some Kryptonian or something in him, because he bit you. Like bleeding and everything.

[A pause.]

Not that he'd do that now. He was just spooked at the time.

[He shakes his head, wondering if he's even making sense anymore.]

And there's nothing to apologize for, because 1. I should have noticed and 2. you're still pretty schway to hang with even if you don't remember before.

[ex_clobbers559]

Wow! I'm uh, glad he's not scared out of his skin nowadays. Why was he on the ceiling to begin with?

( He's said she shouldn't, but it makes her ache to know they had a friendship previously and she can't remember a single minute of it.

She sighs softly, and ends up grinning warmly at him. )

Interdimensional shenanigans are a pain in the neck! But you're pretty awesome to hang out with too.

Which we should do more often, right?

[catchacold]

We stole a giant coin.

[Just that.

Simple as.]

video

[ex_clobbers559]

( Her face right now is an expression of sheer incredulity. )

What for?

video

[catchacold]

Loose change?

[No. He's kidding.

Or is he?]

We wanted to do a coin toss and have it make an impact?

We wanted to add our two cents?

I've got a lot of these.

video

[ex_clobbers559]

( Oh boy. And she'd thought Winn was bad at these! Kara shakes her head, unable to keep from grinning. )

You wanted a penny for your thoughts, I'm guessing.

( She can't imagine herself stealing anything, which makes her curious. )

What motivated me to do that beyond being punny?

[pyrogue]

You don't remember being here before? Weird.

Want me to reintroduce you to my dog? [ He's pretty sure that's the important thing here. ]

Video;

[ex_clobbers559]

( Hey! There's a name she knows; but it doesn't look or sound like the Mick she'd met, at all.

Interesting. )

Nope. Not in the slightest. I'm sorry about that in advance, though funny enough I've met a version of you before.

We fought off an alien invasion together on Earth-1. ( Oh! She nods, grinning. ) Yeah, I'd like that!

[pyrogue]

Wait, you've met me? Huh. Glad to hear I was helping out, hope I didn't set too much stuff on fire.

[ He's half-joking. Mostly not. The one thing he's heard about himself is that the fire thing is multi-universal.

Then he sends a text with a photograph of a dalmatian. ]

This is Matches. Friend of mine's been taking care of her for me.

[ex_clobbers559]

You set all the right things on fire, don't you worry. It was awesome.

( And he'd given her a really weird nickname, but nobody needs to rehash that, do they? Nope.

Seeing the photo makes her grin brightly. )

She's cute. Is everything ok, that you need a dog sitter?

[ofgoldenfoil]

You saved me from drowning once, but that's the first and only time you and I have met.

video

[ex_clobbers559]

Well, I'm glad you're okay! but it's nice to meet you again, ah—

What should I call you?

video

[ofgoldenfoil]

Aurican. No last name - just Aurican.

video

[ex_clobbers559]

Well, it's nice to meet you again Aurican.

[lempereur]

Sorry, I can't say that I have ever known you, in any other capacity.

But you can fly! Is that something I could see in person?

video;

[ex_clobbers559]

( The clouds are whirring by, the wind whipping so hard at her that one could barely hear her amused chuckle over the noise. )

I can! And sure, if I can see one of your powers. Fair trade?

[lempereur]

That sounds more than fair! My power is to draw and redistribute powers. I can give you a new ability to play with, for a few days.

[ex_clobbers559]

That's pretty cool actually. Where are you now? I'll head on over.
