Why this must be read:
A description of this story involves spoilers for the recently-aired finale, so I’ll put it under a cut.
This fic goes AU at the very end of “Daybreak, Part II,” imagining and end where Kara tries to fight her destiny and Lee refuses to let her go. But it’s not easy to defy the gods. This isn’t necessarily any happier than canon, but it gives a far more satisfying weight to the characters and their relationship. Lovely and bittersweet.
Kara’s skin gets pink and starts peeling everywhere, and she almost hates Lee for his tan alone, but they sleep under the stars together almost every night. When it rains, they huddle beneath a bit of canvas masquerading as a tent, stretched between two trees.
A few weeks later, the dreams start. Kara never remembers them come morning, but Lee remembers the way she cries in her sleep, the way she twists in his arms as though she’s trying to escape. Lee is afraid to sleep, afraid that if he lets go she’ll vanish. She’s done it before, but this time she won’t come back.
