[Kara climbs in, almost eagerly. She can't see the aura of her soul around herself, has no idea what Leo's seeing that has him looking so confused. It must be weird for her to stop by and later, when she's not bursting at the seams to tell him every wrong thing she's ever done, she'll apologize for just dropping in uninvited.

For now, she lowers his window behind her and sits cross-legged on his bed, her back against the wall and her lips pressed together. There's a moment where she doesn't want to admit what she's done, shame written on her face, and she channels whatever super strength she has to keeping her mouth shut. But it's hard; he needs to know. She needs to confess.

None of the things she's done will go away just because she keeps them to herself. It's not long before she gives in, in a rush.]

I was fighting, this monster named Parasite. An alien that had taken over the body of this scientist, and he was destroying... everything, hurting people, trying to kill people, throwing cars, going crazy. The parasite was hungry, for energy, looking for ways to suck it out of people, out of electricity, and to stop him, I tried overpowering him with Plutonium-239. And it worked. It was too much, though, and eventually Parasite died. And the scientist, he... he died as well.

[she tips her head back, staring at the ceiling, unwilling to look him in the eye.]

There's been so many people die on my watch, even before I got here. The Banshee pushed one of my coworkers out a window with her voice, and I couldn't save her in time. And here, Rao's light, there's been so much death. All the time, it seems like people are dying to the Sound Eaters, popping up in the reset room, over and over again. It's not healthy. It can't be healthy. There are people here who think we will eventually turn into the Sound Eaters and surely dying over and over again doesn't help. I could save them all, but I keep being just. [she snaps her fingers.] A second too late, or I hear about it later and wonder why I didn't hear an attack, why someone didn't call for me. I'm the closest thing to invincible that's here, as far as I know, and I can't save them all. And that's on me. I should be better.

[she's quiet for a moment, tilting her head to just barely meet Leo's eyes. Her own are wet. This... this is the big one, the one she doesn't want to ever tell anyone about, but it bubbles up from deep inside of her, an overflowing well.]

I killed Frank. The mayor. "Hotdog" or. [she waves a hand.] Whatever. We were friends, and I got... sucked in by Kilgrave. He can mind control people, and I'm not... I can't resist something like that. I don't know how. And he told me to do so many awful things. He told me to kill whoever tried to take me from him.

And Frank just wanted to help. Frank and Jessica and Faith, they all... they all wanted to help me escape Kilgrave. Help Faith escape Kilgrave too. No matter how I tried to stay away, it seemed like he just crept back into my head, and then Frank convinced me to leave. Tricked me, kind of.

When I figured it out, though, I had to... I had to kill him. It's what I was told to do, but he was my best friend when I first got here. [the past tense hurts, but it's not a sin. It's something Kara can still keep locked away, that she alienated herself from Jessica and Frank by being an idiot, by believing that Frank had been in trouble when it had just been Kilgrave all along. By going back to him yet again.]

So, I did. [she taps the corner of her right eye.] With my heat vision. I tried not to, but I couldn't stop myself. I killed him.

[and then she'd died, but that's not a sin either. She sucks in a breath and sighs out with all the relief in the world after confessing. Maybe this is why some humans did this at church because part of her feels better, saying it out loud for what it is: murder and nothing else.]
