if she hadn’t been so distracted, if she hadn’t gone to that fire downtown, they wouldn’t be in this position. there wasn’t even anyone in that fire! they totally could have handled it without her. but no, she had to go and be a hero and now catco is on lock down and there is no way that she can emerge as supergirl without giving away everything.
worse, now she has twenty employees on this floor potentially in harms way.
worse still, cat grant has been haranguing her gunman—to be clear, the man holding a gun to her head—for the last three and a half minutes.
This is prompt taken from an old Lois&Clark episode (That Old Gang of Mine) that I can’t stop imagining as SuperCat: Catco building is under siege while Kara is stuck with Cat and other hostages. One of the gunmen try to rough Cat up and Kara steps between them. Gunman shoots her in front of everyone and she has to pretend to be dead. Cue emotional Cat, revealed feelings, and Supersquad trying to find a way to save Kara’s secret identity. Please, oh please, please
