Given the fact that Nura seemed to be repodded - or GLaDOS-ed, Kara wasn't really all that certain - the erstwhile Supergirl was all the more free to wander around the ship without being unreasonably attacked. It was a nice piece of freedom, and she'd used it to, well, explorinate. Currently, Kara was in hydroponics, staying as far away from the deaging craziness as she could, and relaxing while laying on her back and enjoying the scent of a nearby bunch of exotic flowers. It was the first time in awhile that she'd honestly felt relaxed, and she wanted to enjoy it. Sure, there had been another recent stint in GLaDOs - probably because of how she'd been acting - but she'd been released much more quickly this time around. Plus, she'd had her shots done and everything, so she and Julian could...

No, those aren't relaxing thoughts.

She sat up and stretched. She was probably smiling like an idiot, but that was par for the course when it came to teenage girls. At least, when they were romantically involved and things were going well. Which, they were.

Thing had been going well. Julian hadn't even cheated on her while she was gone. Which, previously, he probably would've. Perhaps he's maturing!

...well, maybe.

But, she was back again, and he was going to see ~~his girlfriend?~~ her, and managed to find her in Hydroponics.

"Hey, gorgeous."

For the briefest of moments, Kara thought she'd been hearing things. But she hadn't. It was him.

Which was nice. They generally managed to find each other sooner or later.

It was also nice, she'd noticed, that he wasn't a child.

"Hey!" She patted the ground next to her, inviting him to sit down. "GLaDOS snatched me up again. It's like it misses me or something."

He went over, sitting down next to her. "If it likes you as much as I do, then I can see why it'd want you around."

"Cute," Kara laughed. "And smooth. I like it." She reached across and took his hand in hers. "How're...things?"

"Hectic," he responded, letting her take his hand. "I've basically been reduced to being a babysitter."

"I noticed that a lot of the crew seems to have reverted to being children," Kara replied. She'd heard that something similar had happened at home, thanks to Klarion. Or someone else. Honestly, she'd felt as though the story had changed at some point, and she wasn't sure what the whole story was anymore. "It's...I'm glad I wasn't around when that happened? Although you don't seem affected." Why was it that she was always being released into something bizarre?

"Yeah, it has something to do with some dumb magical clock that someone picked up on shore leave, or something." He waved a hand dismissively. Really, it was all weird to him. "It's kind of annoying, really. But, yeah, I was one of the people who wasn't affected. Thankfully."

"I'll say," Kara winked. "It would put a damper on things. But...it's not permanent, right?" She wasn't sure who was deaged yet, for sure, but she had a sneaking suspicion that Kon would likely be one of them.

"We hope not." He leaned back a little, and looked up. "We can fix it if we destroy the clock. Except no one has been able to destroy the clock."

"Is it magic?" This was important because if it was, then Kara couldn't destroy it. If it wasn't...it was fair game. "The clock, I mean."

"It's magic," he confirmed.

"And there goes that brilliant plan," Kara sighed. "Magic. I hate that it's a weakness, you know? I'm Supergirl. I should be able to do more."

"No one can do everything, gorgeous." Its not like he didn't have a few good turns trying to destroy that thing, and he could barely put a scratch in it.

"Hey, a girl can dream," she said. After all, she wanted to live up to the shield that she wore across her chest. Well, that she used to wear across her chest. The plantsuit wasn't doing her any favours at the moment. "So...who's been turn-back-timed?"

"...about half the crew," he answered somewhat hesitantly.

"...including both Kon and Kal."
