“You could’ve been killed”
⟨ scold kara for doing dangerous crap; @directorbadass ⟩
Why was this so hard? It was honestly just a case of being in the right place at the right time —— only there was no way for her to have ‘become’ Supergirl. So, Kara did what she had to, or at least she tried. Pushing Alex out of the way, making sure she wasn’t looking when she deflected a bullet with her arm… she was just thankful that there wasn’t an incident and her ailment decided to make her vulnerable. Thankfully, the bullet bounced off of her forearm, no sleeves or anything to damage. Yet, none of it stopped Alex from going off on her… she understood, being afraid of losing someone, and it killed her to continue the lie.
“But I wasn’t!” she returned, probably just a tiny bit too loud, but she couldn’t help it; if anything, she could blame it on adrenaline. As well, she had moved a tiny bit faster than a normal human, but again — it could all be blamed on adrenaline. Or something like that, right? “I’m fine, Alex. I’m sorry, I just… I was scared, and I didn’t know where the shots were coming from —— I just reacted. But I’m fine, I swear!”
