#deo agents

Sumary: The DEO agents aren't used to a happy Alex Danvers.

A little something after 2x09, because Alex giggling and smiling like an idiot was too cute. Sanvers is implied but not Maggie on this one.

Also on AO3

Agent Collins walks out of the locker room that afternoon and heads to her desk without any rush. The whole week has been dead on alien threats, so much that even Supergirl seems a bit on the edge. Before she steps into the control room, the sight of a small group of agents at the farthest corner of the wall of screens catches her attention.

“Hey, what’s going on?” She asks joining them.

“Have you seen Agent Danvers today?” Adams whispers, as if they’re talking about some big secret.

“Not yet, why?”

“She called in sick this morning.”

Collins does a double take because she couldn’t have heard that right.

“What?”

“She arrived just forty minutes ago,” This time is agent Blake who speaks. She looks a bit terrified, “She said ‘hey!’ and grinned at me.”

“And ten minutes ago she was here with her sister, giggling.” Adams says again, “Okashi almost had a stroke.”

Said agent nods.

“Scariest five minutes of my life.”

“Maybe she’s infected with an alien virus?” Collins asks. She still is a bit skeptical about it all. “God knows they touch some weird stuff in those labs.”

“Maybe she just got laid?”

All the others turn to stare at Parker with frowned faces.

“I just want her back to normal” Blake whines, ignoring Parker completely, “I’m used to bossy and slightly terrifying Danvers. Now she’s cute.”

“We all know how much you like bossy Danvers.”

“Shup up, Adams.” The agent retorts.

“She got laid, guys,” Parker insists, “I’m telling you. She’s got her eye on that cop that’s been coming around lately.”

Adams then starts gesturing the others to stop talking, and Collins turns in time to see agent Danvers approaching them.

“Hey, guys!” She greets them cheerfully, making them all cringe at once, “I was heading to work out a little. Any of you interested in sparring with me?”

There’s a hot second while the agents share a look, and suddenly all five start babbling and excusing themselves to their respective workplaces, leaving a confused Alex behind.

Collins seats at her desk, stares at the screen, and sighs deeply.  

The others were right. That was terrifying.

Title: Let’s Get Down To Business Rating: G Series: Summer of Supergirl 2016 (#20) Summer of Supergirl prompt: Super Sidekick (That’s So Meta) Summary: J'onn and Alex have a heart to heart about what's bothering her.  *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

He'd watched her for years. He'd trained her for far less. Alex Danvers was in a horrible space when J'onn had first found her.  She was spiraling and he knew that he couldn't just sit back and allow that to continue.  He'd promised Jeremiah Danvers that he'd keep his family safe, his daughters safe...and Alex, she was who needed him most.  She was the one who was the most like Jeremiah and unlike Kara, Alex was human. There would come a day where Alex Danvers would need to defend herself and possibly assist her sister (though J'onn hoped that day never came), so he'd done what he felt like he needed and had trained her.  He had trained her harder than any other DEO agent.  He trained her to be able to take on aliens with superpowers, even though Alex was a human without superpowers.  He'd encouraged her science background and had given her room to grow in so many ways that he felt like mattered...for her own future. That was probably why every morning they still did this.  It didn't matter if it was only one five minute session or one where he didn't think Alex was going to stop so he had to be the one to make an excuse for them to stop (unless they were interrupted first).  They sparred in one of the rooms, which also helped them both with any issues they might need to work through.   Today was a day where J'onn found himself getting whacked by Alex a bit harder than expected.  It was always a balance of figuring out if he was just not focusing and allowing this to become something more casual or if it was truly because Alex had something she was trying to work through.  A jab to his shoulder, enough of an impact that he let out an audible grunt of dissatisfaction over.  He grabbed her, upset slightly welling up inside of him, and easily flipped her onto her back.  That didn't keep her down for more than a breath, J'onn glared a bit and then he saw it clearly in that moment…  It reminded him so much of all the times he and Alex had spared when he'd let Kara believed that he'd been the one who had killed Astra.  There was anger, upset, and it almost looked like grief inside of her.   "We've had a discussion about choosing coffee over sparring when needed," he said, his tone gentle and his facial features softening in turn. But Alex's hands were up and she was ready to continue.  "Today I need sparring," she insisted. "What happened?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "It has to be Kara." "It's not--"

This is how I cope after that episode.

Not sorry at all.

They were shouting for everyone to hear.

It’s kind of sad.

And pathetic.

And extremely awkward.

“Seriously? She had James Olsen!” Collins is closing her locker when she hears Dana walking towards her, “That’s like trading a Camaro for a SUV. A cheap one.”

“Didn’t you like that SUV a while ago?” Collins jokes.

“In my defence I’ll say that it was the novelty, and he was cute until he started talking.”

“Ooh, are we dragging the daxamite down again?” Blake, who just came into the room, goes to her locker next to Collins, “That show out there was second-hand embarrassing.”

“Supergirl needs an intervention,” States Dana, “Have any of you seen Agent Danvers today?”

“She just went out with a team for field training. She seemed a bit down, though.” Collins replies, “What about Vasquez? Is she around?”

“She is.”

The three agents hear a voice coming from the other side of the locker’s row, low and mysterious.

“What do you need?” The voice, dark and gravelly, asks again.

The temperature of the room seems to have gone down, because all three agents feel a shiver creeping down their spines.

“Supergirl back.” Blake answers with a tiny voice.

“Mon-El gone.” Adds Dana.

“A holliday on the beach,” Collins finishes.

The sound of a locker closing makes them jump startled.

“I’ll look into it.”

They hear a few steps and then the door at the other side of the room closing.  

“That could work.” Blake says.

“Mhm,” Dana nods.
