Well, it hasn't been a year. We've definitely texted in the last year. Last time I saw you was that whole problem with the kryptonium and your sister's boss.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she makes kind of a pained face ]

That's what I remember, too, which is a good start.

[ she thinks about correcting him to say that J'onn is her boss, too, and a friend, but she doesn't want to rehash the whole thing, particularly when she's not comfortable defending J'onn's position either ]

We really need to hang out more.

[lickity_split]

I think that has become very obvious. If we're stuck in this game show for now, we should make the best of it and get that time.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yes! You can regale me with stories of your adventures and give me tips on how to be a good reporter!

[lickity_split]

[laughs]

I think you already know most of that.

[takingkarabusiness]

Your faith in me is encouraging, but I'm a lot newer at this than you are.

[lickity_split]

Yeah, but that's how you learn, cuz. But I do have faith in you. You can accomplish anything you put your mind to. You do it all the time.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ ugh, hug ]

It's so good to see you.

Anything I can answer for you?

[lickity_split]

[all the hugs]

Well, for starters... is there a policy on flying fish pets on the ships?

[takingkarabusiness]

I don't think so! Oh, but my captain is extremely serious about not using heat vision on the ships.

[lickity_split]

Well, that I can understand. Not everyone can breathe in space.

[takingkarabusiness]

And I had a friend make a kind of sunning booth for me for when we're between yellow suns.

[lickity_split]

... you're going to be sharing that with your favorite cousin, right?

[takingkarabusiness]

Well, I thought I'd just tell you about it and then bar access.

Of course I'll share it with you!

[lickity_split]

You're so generous. I think I'll name my flying fish after you.

[takingkarabusiness]

I don't even rate as a puppy?

[lickity_split]

Of course you do, but I don't see any puppies here.

[takingkarabusiness]

I guess I can accept fish.

[lickity_split]

I'll even let you choose the color.

[he motions to the red and blue fish who are still staring at them both with cute fishy adopt me faces]

[takingkarabusiness]

One of each?

[lickity_split]

[gives Kara a tilt of his head]

I was only planning on getting one.

[takingkarabusiness]

You make a valid point, but the color scheme, Clark. You can't ignore the options. It's kismet.

[lickity_split]

[he thinks about it, looking at her, then fish, and then grinning]

How about you take the other? We can then walk them together.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she thinks, then puts her hand out for a shake ]

Okay, it's a deal. Dibs on blue.

[lickity_split]

[and she will get a bright smile with that handshake]

And I'll take red.

[and Clark will go to pay the man for the two fish]
