[Kara lets out a quiet sigh, and she... she thinks she gets it, now. For a moment, they're on a bench, on the boardwalk, looking out at the water, and it's not Will next to her but her sister, Alex. I think I have feelings for Maggie.
She could be wrong, but she doesn't think she is. And for Will to be this young and thinking about this already... and isn't he from the 80s on his Earth? She thinks that's what Mike told her, at the beginning. It's extraordinarily brave of him to even hedge around it.
Heck, by the time Alex came out, the world was way more accepting, and it was still extraordinarily brave for her, too. She's never quite understood "coming out" - in some ways. She understands keeping a part of you hidden, even if it's not the same. She's Supergirl after all. But on Krypton, no one had to come out about anything. Who you loved didn't... It didn't matter.
And it matters so much on Earth, all the time.
She's not sure what to say, wasn't sure what to say when Alex came out either.]
You can tell me. Whatever it is, I'm not going to judge you. I'm just here to listen.
[maybe she's wrong but... she doesn't think she is.]
