[ Kara's content to stay in the shack. Jessica had gone out for more supplies, and Kara has sat at the head of the cot, knees curled up to her chest, and stared at the forest outside the window most of the morning. she hasn't heard from Kilgrave again, not since he'd found out Jessica was talking to him through her, and Frank and Faith had been quiet since the night before. Not that she can face either of them, not with what she's done.
she wants a bath, wants to scrub herself raw, but that would be too loud, so instead she stares, unmoving, a prayer of strength and meditation repeating in the back of her mind in Kryptonian to keep herself even somewhat calm.
eventually, she gets a message from Frank - just a one-word help and then a location, in the reset room. Did he - did he die again? what the hell happened?
it's the first thing to spur her into movement in the past two days, but she's up and out the door before even thinking about it, no supersuit but she doesn't care, flying over Reims until she lands just outside the reset room.
And there's the surprise. For two seconds, seeing his face, she wants to vomit - but then he's speaking, and a smile that matches Faith's spreads across her face. She hopes Kilgrave is okay, after she hasn't been able to protect him the last few days.
That smile only lasts until Frank walks into Kara's line of sight, and Kara staggers back then, against the wall, her eyes welling up with tears. oh no. oh no, it's so much harder to see him than she ever thought it would be. ]
