26 - North/Kara Grad Students AU

North/Kara is a really cute pairing I’ve never really written before! I like the dynamic of these two very headstrong ladies coming together C: Also I based the chair debacle on my own grad TA teaching experiences lmao

—

North was reaching the end of her rope with this classroom shit. Every Monday and Wednesday when she arrived at the classroom she used to teach basic biology to freshmen who didn’t want to be there, every single chair in the damn room was rearranged into some weird formation. Whoever taught in the room before her was clearly an incompetent or a crazed person, because they were pushing all the tables out of the way and re-organizing the chairs however they damn well pleased. And North was absolutely not getting paid enough to deal with this shit. It was bad enough trying to get her PhD in biosystems engineering without having to teach intro biology every semester, and add ‘interior decorator’ on top of that? Fuck that.

Not only was it annoying, but it wasted a good ten minutes of her class time as her students had to put all the chairs and tables back into place in time to listen to the lesson of the day. Several weeks into the semester, and North had had enough. She didn’t have time to come and confront whoever taught before her, but she did have a good fifteen minutes to spare while her class did a discussion to pen a scathing note. She left it on the lectern for ‘the M/W 9:50-10:00 instructor” and hoped it wouldn’t get cleared away by the custodial staff over the weekend. In said note, North detailed pretty much every annoyed thought she had about whoever was dense enough to pull this shit, although she made an effort to leave any profanity out of it.

On Monday morning, North returned to find her note still there, but with a little ‘Re:’ written on the envelope. The chairs were still in disarray, so she was already pissed when she ripped it open to read: ‘Hello fellow M/W instructor! I’m sorry the chairs have been causing you such problems, but arranging students in more relaxed spaces is more condusive to learning and discussion! I never teach with tables any more, and I’d encourage you to do the same! Please let me know if you’d like me to recommend some readings on the subject! :)’ North had to work very hard not to crumple up the note and throw it at the nearest wall. READINGS!!! Readings indeed! Not like she had enough to fucking read!!

The next note North wrote was much less polite, but it was met with nothing but apparent pleasantry from the mysterious teacher who came before her. At first it only served to make her more angry, thinking it couldn’t possibly be more than a passive-aggressive ploy, but after a few weeks…North began to almost get used to her weekly correspondence. Neither of them signed their missives, but she had to assume it was always the same person. They really liked the smiley face emoji, whoever they were, and also very holistic teaching approaches. As much as she would never admit it (and stayed afterwards to remove the evidence by reorganizing the chairs), North actually did try leaving them in their little circles one day. It wasn’t terrible. It was. Well, maybe it was good for some things.

As the semester began to near its close, North was struck with the sudden thought that she might never actually find out who her mystery penpal was. And as much as she hated admitting it, she had grown pretty fond of them. Luckily, her class right before teaching cancelled one day, so North had the luxury of arriving early enough to catch the tail end of the class before hers. As the students all filed out of the room, she stepped in, and came face to face with…a young woman her age, pushing short blond hair back out of her face as she gathered up her folders and papers. 

“Can I help you?” She asked pleasantly, a soft smile gracing her lips that had North’s heart down on its knees in an instant. God. She really was a sucker for a cute girl. “Yeah, uh. Mind explaining just how you use these chairs for teaching?” North blurted out, and the shocked expression on the other woman’s face was well worth the potential embarrassment. “You! Oh my god it’s finally you!” She exclaimed, coming out from behind the podium and standing directly in front of North, grinning up at her with a hand extended, “The name’s Kara. I’m so pleased to finally meet you!” North shook her hand in bewilderment, but she could feel an answering smile on her own face despite it all. “And I’d be happy to talk more about the chairs but…maybe over coffee sometime? Since you have to teach and all.” Kara added slyly. 

“I can’t say no to that sort of offer.” Came North’s answer, and it was in that moment that she knew her heart was lost. A cute girl and coffee? She could forgive all manner of chair based sins for that.

OOF Kara and North is sweet like i like the idea of Kara just holding Norths hand whenever she gets reallly mad and before she can just blow up in a fit of rage Kara just wraps her arm around hers,, locks hands, and gently puts her hand on her arm and softly goes "North...hiney, its okay.." and north is just "y-yes dear.." KARA BRINGS THE BEST OUT OF NORTH OK

Kara would totally understand North’s frustration and anger and help her through her emotions YES north and kara bring out each other’s best and balance each other and are PERFECT TOGETHER

I don’t care who you are but if you make Kara/North content I fucking love you, thank you for doing what you are doing and please continue

headcanon: North really appreciates old technology and enjoys listening to old vinyls on a record player she salvaged. Kara figures this out and sneaks new records that she thinks North will enjoy into her collection.
