The fluorescent lights of the airport terminal droned, casting a sterile pallor over Kara Zor-El. She stood rigidly in the check-in queue, arms locked across her chest, radiating a dense aura of boredom.

As the line crept forward, her expression remained stoic, a mask over the internal scream of a celestial being trapped in mortal bureaucracy.
