Exactly. None of those. If another me shows up, just be extremely mean to her.

[takingkarabusiness]

Obviously. That's my natural state: being a mean girl.

[passingthrough]

[She raises a finger. Correcting.] Extremely mean.

...Also, you don't actually think you're a mean girl, right?

[takingkarabusiness]

Not normally, no. Not at all.

[passingthrough]

Good. Because I wouldn't even know how to argue back against crazy like that.

[takingkarabusiness]

I did get someone fired, but in my defense, I was being affected by Red Kryptonite and also she was being awful.

[passingthrough]

Red Kryptonite?

[takingkarabusiness]

Just. A really nasty thing that makes me the worst version of myself.

[passingthrough]

...Wow. That sounds like something that would happen in the prison. What happened?

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she's really uncomfortable, crossing her arms ]

I was aware of everything, but I couldn't stop myself from giving in to every dark impulse. I threw Ms. Grant off of a building. I caught her, but it was awful.

I broke Alex's arm.

[Well, those just sound like things Kitty would do to someone who woke her up at 3:30am for no good reason. You know, if she could fly. Okay, probably not at this point in her life, but it was a darker version of Kitty who survived her world.]

Were you the only one affected?

[takingkarabusiness]

Well, yeah.

[ wait, she hasn't explained Kryptonite. she's been reluctant because you know. going around talking about the only thing that could kill you ]

It's a thing that only affects Kryptonians and my cousin lives in another city.

[passingthrough]

Was it an accident or a weapon?

[takingkarabusiness]

A weapon ostensibly made for my uncle. I happened to come across it first.

[passingthrough]

Well, that is poor weapon management. Also, making you follow your darkest impulses seems like something that would help you more than your enemies.

[takingkarabusiness]

Non's already his worst self. But the Red Kryptonite was Max Lord's attempt at creating Kryptonite, which generally takes us out. He just failed at it.

[passingthrough]

Takes you out? What's it do to you? [More...scientifically maybe?]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she shrugs ]

It makes me weak and sick. I don't know, Kitty. I just know I don't want it to show up.

[passingthrough]

They aren't big on giving us weapons and I've never heard of it before. Hopefully it won't be something we just stumble on out here.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, I know. It's just not so comfortable talking about something that could kill me.

[passingthrough]

Well, no, but most of us are very easy to kill. You'd have to avoid conversing about basically all blunt and pointy objects.

[takingkarabusiness]

Okay, okay. Point made.

[passingthrough]

[Smiling.] Hopefully you have nothing to worry about. You definitely have nothing to worry about from me.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ her track record with Winn's girlfriends isn't great ok ]

Oh, I know. It's the being filmed thing I'm not excited about.

[passingthrough]

[She won't need a fancy rock if it comes to that. Okay, it would help a lot and that's too much confidence to have up against Kara, but she has her ways.]

Oh... Right.
