That med bay scene with Lena crossing her arms like she's doing that in order to prevent herself from physically reaching out to check on Kara had me thinking about all the times Kara's gotten hurt and Lena didn't even know it was her best friend being punched and thrown around and I nearly made myself cry so I had to share because I see you're also in your feelings.
“So, do you think Nxyly senses you, too?”
Her sister’s tone, the atmosphere in the med bay, they’re quiet and sombre and almost painfully serious. This is decidedly not the time, Kara reminds herself sternly, to make a Harry Potter reference. Even if she has just learned she has a psychic bond with a fifth-dimensional imp à la Harry and Voldemort. Even if she has just essentially become a horcrux.
Kara sighs. She’d always fancied herself more of a Luna Lovegood than the Boy Who Lived but in the scheme of their issues, her own miscasting is pretty small potatoes.
Alex’s fingers are warm on her thigh. Lena stands at the foot of the gurney, hands tucked tight beneath her folded arms. Kara forces herself not to dwell on the absence.
“I think so,” she mutters at her sister’s worried expression, dragging herself firmly back to the crisis of the hour. “And I think to fight her, I’m gonna need every bit of power I can find. And then some.”
She doesn’t know why she looks at Lena as she says it, really. Something about the source of her strength and her reason to keep fighting and a hundred other things she might never find the courage to say aloud.

Thus is the defining characteristic of gay millennials: we straddle the pre-Glee and post-Glee worlds. We went to high school when faggot wasn't even considered an F-word, when being a lesbian meant boys just didn't want you, when being nonbinary wasn't even a remote option. We grew up without queer characters in our cartoons or Nickelodeon or Disney or TGIF sitcoms. We were raised in homophobia, came of age as the world changed around us, and are raising children in an age where it's never been easier to be same-sex parents. We're both lucky and jealous. As the state of gay evolved culturally and politically, we were old enough to see it and process it and not take it for granted--old enough to know what the world was like without it. Despite the success of Drag Race, the existence of lesbian Christmas rom-coms, and openly transgender Oscar nominees, we haven't moved on from the trauma of growing up in a culture that hates us. We don't move on from trauma, really. We can't really leave it in the past. It becomes a part of us, and we move forward with it.
For LGBTQ+ milennials, our pride is couched in painful memories of a culture repulsed and frightened by queerness. That makes us skittish. It makes us loud. It makes us fear that all this progress, all this tolerance [...] can vanish as quickly as it all appeared.
