After a long night

Titans Tower

After a debriefing with everyone involved, Kori and the two MJs headed to Kori's quarters. Exhausted, LSV MJ flopped down on the large bed, falling asleep immediately. "Mmm... 'nightladies..." she muttered quietly before drifting off.

"I have to admit, this is not how I imagined sharing a bed with our guest," Kori told her girlfriend, disappointment in her voice.

DCM MJ wrapped her arm around Kori, giving her an affectionate but tired smile. "Me, neither, babe. But we've still got time, right? I'm sure we'll get there."

"Oh, I know we will," Kori replied, smiling back, a tinge of sadness in her eyes. "And I must admit, I'm pretty tired myself. It has been a long day..."

The couple stripped naked, got into bed next to their sleeping counterpart and cuddled into each others arms.

"You're still worried about angry me, aren't you?" DCM MJ asked, stroking her girlfriend's cheek.

"I can't help but wonder what happened between her and my counterpart... what did I -- what did she do?"

"I don't know... but I'm sure she had her reasons," DCM MJ reassured Kori. "And whatever she did, she did it, not you. It wasn't your fault, OK, Kori? I love you, and I know you love me. I don't give a fuck what evil me says, I know that'll never change."

"Oh, Mary Jane..." Kori began. "I do love you. And I would never intentionally cause you hurt. Ever."

"I've never doubted that. Ever." DCM MJ whispered, leaning in closer and kissing Kori tenderly. "Which is why I'm sure that angry me's Kori never meant to hurt her, either."

Kori looked deeply into her MJ's eyes and sighed quietly, wishing she could fully believe it herself. Still, she felt comfort knowing that her and her MJ's love was as strong as ever, regardless of what had happened between their counterparts. It made her confident, optimistic they could save Red Lantern MJ from the Atrocitus' control, fearsome as he was. The two cuddled together for a moment before falling asleep, DCM MJ holding Kori protectively as she rested her head on her girlfriend's chest, arms around each other, content smiles on their faces as they drifted off.
