3rd Person POV

"Did you call her yet?" Willow asks Nia, the green-eyed girl snapping another picture of the stage where an event was going to happen

"Calling now." Nia says, the phone to her ear

"Nia." Kara exclaims once picking up the phone and Nia puts the phone on speaker to Willow can hear

"Kara." Nia greets

"It's good to hear your voice." Kara says

"Well, it would be better to see my face." Nia says

"Where are you?" Willow questions, setting up her camera to take another picture. "The ceremony's about to start."

"Willow!" Kara exclaims

"The one and only." Willow answers. "So? Ceremony?" She asks

"Ceremony?" Kara asks

"They're awarding the Nobel Peace Prize any minute." Nia says. "Don't worry, we saved you a seat, but that lady from the gazette is giving me angry eyes. If you miss this, Andrea's gonna blow a gasket."

And with that, Kara speeds into the room and sits down next to Nia as Willow stands off to the side, taking pictures of the announcer

"And now I'm proud to introduce the winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize, Lex Luthor." The announcer says as Lex takes the stage

"Nia, Nia, am I still dreaming?" Kara breathes

"I know, right. It is so great when this award goes to someone who actually deserves it." Nia says

"We live in dangerous times." Lex says on the stage. "Earth is a dangerous place. I suppose that's why people love superheroes so much. The power, the chutzpah of someone who can fly faster than a speeding bullet. But that's what makes this so special. I don't have any powers. I can't leap tall buildings in a single bound, but I have dedicated my life to fighting on the side of humanity, and to be recognized for that is more than I can put into words, so I will just say I stand with mankind."

"I'm gonna throw up." Supergirl mutters, rewatching Lex accepting the award in the DEO

"Are you still feeling weird?" Alex asks. "We should get you to the med bay. You did not seem okay this morning."

"Oh, no, no, I'm fine. I'm just disoriented." Supergirl says. "The world is what was Lex doing up there?"

"Well, they keep throwing all these awards at him." Alex says. "He doesn't usually accept them in person, but this one meant a lot to him."

"People think he's a good guy?" Supergirl asks

"Kara, we're talking about Lex Luther." Alex says. "He's the best guy."

"No, he's not." Supergirl says. "He's a psychopathic lunatic."

"What? No, he's the boss." Alex says.

"And he's your number one supporter." Willow says, walking into the DEO and turning a picture of Lex that she had taken that morning to show Alex

"She's right." Alex says, giving a thumbs up at the picture. "Besides Lena, of course. And all the times that they defended you to the president what has gotten into you."

"Hang on, what-wha wait, did you just say boss?" Supergirl asks as Alex joins Willow at the table, the two looking over the other pictures that Willow takes out of her backpack. "I don't... Oh, no, no, no, no. Alex, are we–"
