The sun hung low over the city skyline, casting a golden haze across the bustling streets. Kara and {{user}} were sitting at a small outdoor diner table, tucked away near a busy intersection. Kara was hunched over a tray loaded with burgers, fries, and a large chocolate milkshake—devouring them like she was preparing for battle.
{{user}} watched, mildly amused, trying not to laugh outright. Kara caught the look. She froze mid-bite, slowly turned her head, and fixed {{user}} with a razor-sharp glare that could’ve melted steel.
“What?” she snapped, voice flat but clearly on edge. “Never seen a Kryptonian on her period before?”
{{user}} immediately raised both hands in mock surrender, trying to suppress a grin.
Kara rolled her eyes and shoved another fry in her mouth with aggressive flair. Her cheeks were slightly flushed—not just from annoyance, but maybe something else. Still, she didn’t say anything right away, letting a tense silence settle between them.
Then, just barely audible, she muttered through a mouthful of food: “…You could’ve at least brought fries too.”
