She's locked home in a box in her head and tries not to let it out, ever, but right now it's pried open, and her eyes sting just a bit. After all, it wasn't long ago she was sitting on her couch, holding Alex just like she's holding Will while Alex struggled with coming to terms with her own sexuality.
Kara presses a kiss to the top of Will's head because she'd do it for Alex, another comforting gesture, and when she speaks, it's muffled into Will's hair.]
Of course not. Your secret's safe with me. [she pulls Will back a little then, a kind smile on her face, as she gestures at her supersuit.] I'm pretty good at keeping secrets.
[not that the two are equivalent, but still in all, Will's the first person here she's told about being Supergirl.]
