Where is Sam season 4 and post-Crisis?

I know it’s been brought up before, but Sam is a core relationship and person to Lena’s past. They are best friends “sisters” even and I refuse to believe her disappearance isn’t a massive plot hole. Let’s consider a couple of key moments Sam should’ve been brought up.

First and foremost season 4 Lex being released from prison?? Hello, your best friend’s maniac brother is on the loose, maybe a phone call would work. The irony of Lena snapping at Kara for not being there for her while Alex and even Supergirl were was also not lost on me.

Second, Lena finding out Kara is SUPERGIRL!!! To set the scene Lena finds out the her best friend is a kryptonian while Sam, her other best friend, had a wild awakening for being one as well a year before! There is literally no one better to talk to about whatever she was feeling than Sam. Moreover not only was Sam a kryptonian and knew and saw Supergirl’s struggles, but Sam was Reign!!! and for a while both Kara’s friend and Supergirl’s villain. She had front row seats to Supergirl’s hypocrisy and her poorly played split personality. To top it all off Lena had lied to Sam for her own good in order to protect Sam and because she doesn’t really trust people which was obviously not the same situation as with Kara but still, we can see some similarities that they could’ve talked about. But instead of doing so, Lena builds an AI puts it in Eve Tesmacher’s body OF ALL PEOPLE to serve as her emotional support/sounding board. (I refuse to believe that actually happened)

Third, Lena brings Andrea back into her life?! If you ever had a best friend I’m sure you’d have some reticence before allowing said best friend to bring a toxic lying ex back into their lives for god sake. Like no matter what, that decision should’ve been double checked. I love the Lena backstory with Andrea it really thickens the plot, but if I was Sam I would’ve given Lena a quick reality check on why that was a bad idea.

Fourth!!!! Post-Crisis!!!! Okay so reality changed and let’s say maybe Sam and Lena never met. But Lena kept her memories, and as (a platonic best friend according to the writers) Kara checks/makes sure that Lena remembers their complicated history first thing after saving the world, why on earth prime wouldn’t Lena do the same with Sam if they are so best friends and so platonic. But let’s say they indeed didn’t meet, I have even more questions. How did the Harun-El come to life? Was Sam Reign? Did they save her and then just moved on? how did they even realize she was Reign. And if Sam was not Reign how in the world did she get to Earth and what in the world was with the witches of the cult popping up 5th season. Will Sam become Reign? is she dormant? I have so many questions that Lena, Alex, Brainy, Kara should have too!

Side notes to that argument I have:

Lena saying every one of her friends has betrayed her in the past when Sam never did

There’s some sort of excuse the writers could give, like if Lena already had a best friend that was there for her in every sense of the word while making big sapphic eyes at Kara and going through a sapphic tragedy when Kara lied to her then well that couldn’t have been platonic could it?

Ruby and Esme. There’s absolutely no way Lena did not think of Ruby especially when Esme came around I just refuse to believe so.

Envy (Red Daughter Fic)

A/N: I just can’t get over that elevator scene, I had to write it.

She learns a new word when she comes to America.

Envy.

She looks it up later in the English dictionary Alex gave her. Envy, the well-worn book tells her, is the "painful or resentful awareness of an advantage enjoyed by another, joined with a desire to possess the same advantage".

She doesn't learn it immediately upon arriving in Kara Danvers's apartment. What she feels upon seeing the warm comfort of the spacious place -- grand and luxurious compared to the stark bareness of her own quarters in Kasnia -- is not envy.

Yes, Kara Danvers has the advantage of luxury over her, but as Alex has pointed out, it has made her soft. She herself can see it has made the other woman undisciplined, complacent. So, she does not envy Kara Danvers her luxury.

When she reads Kara Danvers's journal, her attitude toward the woman softens. Kara Danvers seems intelligent, compassionate, good-natured, witty and driven to help people. Kara Danvers is not the malevolent, entitled defender of American destroyers that she had believed her to be.

She is confused and intrigued, but she is not envious.

When she reads the passages in Kara Danvers's journal about her "best friend" Lena - the very same Lena who is Alex's sister - she is surprised and deeply curious.

Instead of the selfish usurper who failed and betrayed her brother, she finds an entirely different woman. Kara Danvers speaks of Lena Luthor with a respect and affection that is almost tangible in each page.

The warmth and intimacy of every detail written by a fond hand -- from her glowing praise of Lena's brilliance and kindness, to the three pages devoted to the way her eyes shone with surprise and joy when Kara discovered her birthday (her actual birthdate and not the day she had been adopted by the Luthors) and brought her Big Belly Burger at work to surprise her -- every single little thing she reads about Lena Luthor in the journal is like a revelation.

She stares at the photograph of her in Kara Danvers's journal.

In the five months of her existence, she has seen glimpses of beauty -- the snowbird ruffling its feathers on a bare branch has its own beauty, so does the silver-grey bark of the trees outside the compound. Even Alex's pretty friend, Eve, has her own beauty.

But none of these things can hold a candle to the woman in the photograph.

She can't look away from the piercing green eyes -- a green deeper and more mesmerizing than the poisonous green glow that had exploded in the sky that one night. She can't understand how something as inanimate as a photograph can be so arresting.

For the first time, she feels a gnawing in her stomach, a tight squeeze in her chest -- it is a new thing, and it makes her uncomfortable. But she does not know what it is yet.

This unknown thing prompts her out of Kara Danvers's couch and into her closet where she curiously puts on clothing that makes her look identical to the woman in the photo stuck to the refrigerator. Alex had said that she might need to match her someday.

In the back of her head, she knows that this is not what Alex meant. But the unnamed thing inside her does not care.

She faces the mirror and slips on the eye glasses, completing the disguise. 

So this is what it is like to be Kara Danvers.

For a second, she is reminded of one of the books Alex had given her -- The Man in the Iron Mask. A story of two identical people, allotted different paths at birth, until fate turns the tide and allows the disadvantaged twin to taste the life that has been denied them. Out of all her books, it is second only to the The Great Gatsby in her preference.

She flexes, tries on Kara Danvers's life as she tries on her clothes. And the first taste of it she seeks out of her own volition is Lena Luthor.

Her plan had been merely to observe. Just a reconnaissance mission, to get a feel for who the woman truly is -- the disappointing farce Alex laments, or the remarkable force of nature that fills the pages of Kara Danvers's journal.

It's not difficult to find L-Corp. Nor is it difficult to find the woman herself.

Looking back on it now in the quiet of her room in Kasnia, she thinks this was probably when the unknown thing eating her insides became envy.

It's easy to distinguish Lena Luthor in a crowded office lobby. Not only because of her striking looks or because of her clearly expensive clothes. Lena cuts an arresting figure through a crowd -- she moves with a power and grace that immediately catches the eye. And this is how she knows that Lena really is Alex's sister.

Lena moves the way Alex does, with a dynamic, captivating assurance that commands attention. But there is something languid and elegant in the way Lena walks across the lobby - brisk, yes, but also smooth, almost indulgent, as if she moves at her own pace and the world must follow her - it's amazing how she can move like that in heels and office attire.

She also notices how Lena takes the time to talk to people. Amid all the corporate talk, her enhanced hearing picks up snatches of conversation -- a concerned inquiry about this employee’s sick mother, or a delighted laugh at the antics of that employee’s toddler.

Her initial intent to merely observe without making contact is utterly forgotten as Lena ends her conversation with an associate and heads to the elevator. She’s not ready let her out of her sight yet, so she quickens her pace just the slightest to catch the elevator.

Once there, she realizes her mistake.

She hadn’t actually planned on talking to Lena and as such has no idea what to say in an actual encounter with her. For some reason, this is different from her encounter with Kara Danvers’s Alex. With that Alex, it had been easy to make an excuse, to laugh things off and make a joke.

This time is different.

This time, the doors to the elevator begin to slide shut, and it’s just her and Lena. All the smoothness and ease with which she had lied to Alex is gone, and all that’s left is her staring at this woman whom she has read and heard so much of that she feels as if she knows her -- has known her all her life.

The photograph has not done her justice. It would not be hyperbole to say that in the entirety of her existence, she has never seen anything as beautiful as Lena Luthor in the flesh.

She is dressed impeccably in deep colors that contrast delightfully with her pale skin, and her hair is scooped back into an elegant knot that exposes the graceful length of her neck. Her perfume -- something subtle and feminine -- reaches her nostrils as Lena turns her head toward her, sending her olfactory senses into a dizzy spell. And her eyes... 

Eyes the same color as Alex's with the same touch of danger in the piercing gaze - but Lena's are brighter somehow. Where Alex's eyes are steel, cold, hard and unyielding, Lena's eyes are glass - sharp and cutting, all shards and fractals in the photograph she had stared at earlier

And yet there is something fragile in them when those eyes alight on the woman she thinks is Kara Danvers.

Yes, this is where the envy comes in. Because how can she not envy any woman that Lena Luthor would look at in this way - her cut-glass eyes going soft and translucent, sparkling with surprised delight. How can she not resent Kara Danvers for being treated to such a sight every day when she herself has not?

For all the words she has learned in the past five months, she finds she cannot speak any at all now. Her mouth is dry, her tongue feels thick, and her heart is pounding.

But Lena is talking, unaware that the woman she is speaking to is not her friend. Her tone is light - she is asking about Kara's vacation - but her voice is rich and sultry and even, like silk over steel, and it makes her breathless.

She manages to stammer out an incoherent excuse involving Kara Danvers’s Alex, or she may have been referring to her own Alex, at this point she doesn’t even really know what she’s saying -- but Lena is nodding and smiling, and she doesn’t know if it’s normal for a Kryptonian’s heartbeat to stop for a second then zoom forward at what is undoubtedly an unhealthy rate.

She wants to see Lena smile more, hear her talk more, but a hand slips between the elevator doors, and a familiar blond head pokes in. Alex’s friend Eve sidles into the space between her and Lena, golden curls bobbing cheerfully.

The other blonde is smooth in her excuses and lies, but there’s a slightly manic edge to her demeanor that tells her Eve is eager to get rid of Lena so she can berate her.

She couldn’t really care less. Her eyes flick over to Eve for less than a second before turning to Lena again, silently imploring her not to go. Not yet not yet give me more time I don’t care if you’re talking to Kara and not to me just please don’t go yet -- 

But of course, Lena doesn’t stay. She doesn’t know how momentous this encounter is. Lena thinks she’s just talking to a friend -- just a casual conversation she’ll probably forget as soon as more important matters overtake it in her mind.

Lena takes her leave with another brilliant smile and a promise made for future plans with her that Lena doesn’t know she’ll be breaking, because all other future plans will involve Kara Danvers and not her impostor.

She doesn’t remember much else of what happens after Lena exits the elevator, leaving the two women staring at her just before the doors close. She vaguely remembers an irksome and unsatisfactory argument with Eve. She vaguely remembers flying back to Kasnia in a daze, a copy of Catco magazine with Lena on the cover held securely in her grasp to prevent it from falling into the ocean.

That very same magazine is hidden in her mattress, and for the hundredth time since her return, she resists the temptation to pull it out and stare at Lena’s photograph. Or the name Kara Danvers on the byline.

Russian Kara is so pure and sweet!! Can we please protect her at all costs???

[hanreisoundshenry]

I thought Lena was gonna ask Eve/Hope to shoot her before the government comes :,(

[zorelkaradanvers]

[felicitous-one]

Okay correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Eve show up after James Olson was working at catco? So maybe Eve was planted there to spy on James and hopefully to find out who Supergirl was what am I trying to spy for Lex Luthor. Now when Lena bought catco that would have been the perfect opportunity for Eve to spy on Lena as well. So it is very possible that he has been doing this whole time.
