Right.

[ and then, his hand touches her arm ]

listen, I didn't mean to sound like I'm doubting you. I'm just- whatever Caitlin's seen in awful and Zoom is seriously cray and you're my friend and I didn't see you kick ass yet so I guess I forgot Supergirl and went with my Kara vibe.

[ vibe. hahaha..ha ]

you'll kick his ass to the curve.

[ she moves to hold his hand ]

Thanks. It's just been hard, lately. You're not the only person to go that way. Not a lot of opportunities to remind people I'm pretty good at what I do, but a heck of a lot of opportunities to stick my foot in my mouth.

[ she laughs a little, softly ]

I was so confused about why people would eat their feet when I first heard that.

[benames]

[ he huffs a laughter that comes out way too girly than he imagined it would ]

I guess most of us are used to Kara rather than to Supergirl but, you know.

[ he nudges her ]

I believe in Supergirl.

[takingkarabusiness]

Thanks.

I feel like Barry just has to show up here, you know? I'm not sure he'd like it much. It's hard for us heroing types. But it'd be pretty great if you ask me.

[benames]

Yeah.

[ he nods with a little sigh ]

It'd really make Caitlin feel better if she could see he's ok.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah.

Listen, to the point I was trying to make before, I know it's important that Barry's 100% okay and alive for you. I don't even doubt that that's the case. I met him, and it seems like it'd take a lot for it to really happen. But Caitlin might also just need someone who understands her reality, you know? She's been through so much. I just don't want her to feel like her best friend doesn't believe what she's experienced. I'd hate to see her stop talking about it instead of working through it.

[benames]

It's not that. If Caitlin starts believing the lies Zoom told her then he won over her. I mean, who knows what else he said. He's not here but we also have no way to prove he's lying.

[ which is frustrating as hell ]

[takingkarabusiness]

I think you can lead her to realize that she's okay and that Zoom was wrong without just denying her outright, though.

[benames]

I can't talk about Barry in terms of death. It'd freak me out and then we'd both be a mess. I can't even think about it without -

[ he shakes his head ]

Barry's alive. if I think otherwise - there is no thinking otherwise.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ Cisco, you seem like you need a reassuring hug. So she's going to go for one ]

I know. I'm sorry.

[benames]

[ he always needs hugs but all he gets is more work so you know what, kara, this is seriously appreciated. he hugs her for a long moment before sighing ]

You know, I'd really like to meet a speedster who's not Barry but who's also not nuts.

[takingkarabusiness]

I would like you to meet one, too. Because all of that sounds way too stressful.
