Evil Lena, barely wearing a shirt: oh no.. supergirl… you’ve… foiled me again… guess you’ll have to cuff me… and ohh, I may be armed… you should… pat me down…

I get some of the pushback against Lena's arc because people don't like the idea that it's saying she had no choice but to become evil like her family but... that's the point. She did have a choice. She chose this. It's on her. She wanted to be better, but ultimately didn't live up to it, and it's on her. Other characters with bad families (like Winn and M'gann) could be good, other characters Kara hid the truth from (like Cat, who she still hasn't told) took it with grace. It's just Lena.

Well, I’m not sure I would hold up Cat as an example of taking it with grace.  She had a fairly negative reaction the first time she figured it out, but then, that reaction was rooted entirely in selflessness.  The idea that Kara should be out there, helping people, and if she was wasting time as Cat’s assistant.  In a way, Cat’s initial reaction is best summed up thusly:

That said, Lucy, Winn and Nia, the three people Kara has told aside from Lena, have all had much better reactions, and that’s telling.  Winn was Kara’s best friend.  He ran an alien blog, and Kara, an alien, had been actively denying the existence of aliens to him for more than a year.  Lucy, probably the closest analog to Lena we’ll find, who was friends with Kara, and had worked with Supergirl, completely reversed course on what she was doing after Kara told her the truth.  Nia completely accepted Kara without hesitation.  And Kara had lied to all of them to keep her secret.

Winn and M’gann (and arguably Lucy) come from terrible families.  There is literally nothing that makes Lena’s situation here unique or special among Kara’s inner circle, other than Lena’s sense of entitlement to every detail of everyone else’s life, even while keeping some huge fucking secrets of her own.

Riverdale 15-year-olds vs actual 15-year-olds

what if we were sparring and your shirt was clinging to your body with sweat and your eyes were really intense and that got me distracted enough for you to pin me to the ground and sit on top of me? and maybe you were breathing all heavy and gave me a smug little smirk while saying “i win” and then i went “are you sure?” and grabbed you by the collar to pull you in for a kiss? and perhaps once we separated i said “because i think i’m the real winner here.” with our foreheads still pressed together? i think that’d be kinda cool idk!
