WHO: Kara Danvers Zor-El and Friends!
WHERE: Everywhere!
WHEN: All through August
WHAT: First meetings, re-meetings, catch-all!
WARNINGS: Awkwardsauce attempts to collect gossip, more as needed

Everywhere: She works hard for the money

Are you an interesting person?? Or a famous one?? Kara Danvers wants to talk to you! Or, well, she doesn't really, not that she doesn't think you're interesting, it's just that she has this job to do as a professional gossiper. So...are you seeing anyone? Anything else noteworthy going on? You look nice today! ...can she write that down? Someone have mercy on this terrible member of the gossip column community.

Midair: Off we go into the wild blue yonder

She might be introducing herself as Kara Danvers Zor-El now, and she might be a little freer about using her powers in public—she glows now, it isn't as though she can hide in plain sight anymore—but there's still something about the blue and red that makes her feel like she's out there making a difference. Look for the red cape crossing the sky as Supergirl patrols, looks and listens for trouble, and maybe gets a little distracted just enjoying the freedom of the sky. She might give you a ride if you're in the mood!

[Catch-all for Kara for August! Feel free to tag in as you like, or PM or hit me up at

Len is looking up at the sky, shading his eyes. He's jut walking, heading home from the museum and he's a little too observant not to notice what has to be one of the most eye-catching get-ups he's ever encountered. But still, if Kara hadn't slowed down a little, he'd not have recognised her.

However, as it is he does, so he calls out when she's close enough. "Sunshine!" Waiting to have her attention, he continues. "More your element than the ice, eh?"

She hears it, but it takes a moment for her to realize he's talking to her. And then she feels instantly wary, how did he recognize her so quickly, but she knows she hasn't been working very hard to guard her secret identity since arriving here. Blaming the Porter for all her powers, maybe that would work for a while, but...well, she's got a tell now. She hadn't thought of it until she'd put her costume on and looked in the mirror, but she gives off just as much light as Supergirl as she does as Kara.

She veers off her slow flight course and circles back around to touch down several feet in front of him. "I guess the glow is a giveaway," she admits with a little helpless shrug. "Hi."

"That and you already told me you can fly." No, she really hasn't been working all that hard on it. Leonard considers pointing out that she also isn't exactly wearing a mask, but he keeps it to himself, she seems like she feels chastised enough by how easily she's been recognised. The glow helped, of course, he almost gets the feeling of someone overdoing it on a lens flare effect when looking directly at her like this. "Hey. How's the view from up there, sunshine?"

That's a sheepish little shrug, and you got me smile. The glasses and her status as a personal assistant are enough of a mask at home. He's just more observant than most people. He probably would have spotted her right away no matter what.

"It's nice. It's different. If I go up high enough, I can see the other ImPort cities, but then I have to watch for planes too, so I usually don't go that high. It isn't fair to the pilots." The passengers enjoy seeing someone flying and waving to them, but it can be a bit of a shock for pilots who aren't expecting it.

It's true, it takes a bit more to hide an identity from Leonard Snart. He wonders sometimes if he'd have been able to see through Barry's disguise if he'd actually known Barry and even more often he wonders how anyone who does know Barry can not see through his disguise. He had the Flash down pat the first time he properly faced him. So young.

Good. The way Kara is, too. Cute.

"I'd imagine that'd catch a pilot off-guard. How fast can you go and how many bugs do you end up eating?" He knows how to ask the important questions.

"Ew," she says, laughing. "That's what you want to know?" It's actually a lot less invasive than most questions people like to ask, and it makes her think for a few moments.

"I'm not sure exactly. I mean, I raced the Flash once, so I'm at least that fast, running. Flying, it's pretty fast. I outflew a missile a few times before I finally got it to explode. I haven't noticed a lot of bugs but I did breathe in a fly once when I was just out flying at dusk. So gross."

"Hey, it's a real concern to have." Flying around like that definitely has to have some downsides, even if he can assume that her physics have adjusted accordingly. His eyebrows go up when Kara talks about racing the Flash and he lets out a low whistle. "Impressive."

The speed, not so much the fly in her mouth. "I'm surprised it's not more than that. But you're fast, eh? Flash-fast? I bet he loves that."

"I think he's still a little faster than me, when we were racing it was to get up enough speed so I could throw him back into his world," she explains, not clearly at all. "I don't think he minds. I could probably get faster if I practiced, but I don't really run places all that often. Flying's usually just easier. I go flying a lot, just for myself."

"As long as you don't get airsick, I can see the appeal." That and the aforementioned flies stuck in her teeth, especially if she went flying while smiling her smile of pure sunshine, but luckily it wasn't his problem. "So that's what you do back home. Fly around just for the hell of it or do you go saving the day?"

He looks at her, a grin of his own on his face. "Of course you save the day. Well done, Sunshine."
