[  Okay. So apparently he can't actually phase through the cast and get it off that way.  He'd intended on just doing that instead of asking any single person for help or even just going to hospital and waiting for hours for someone there to do it.  But he'd tried, and he couldn't actually get enough space between the cast, the brace and his actual skin to maneuver the room to actually get the thing off. 

So it was either man up and ask for help or what he actually ended up doing:  speeding to Star Labs, stealing a bunch of their speedster-proof alcohol and holing up in his apartment.  

Of course that meant that once he was actually drunk, he turned on some music annoyingly loudly (oh god, it's Taylor Swift, WHY is it Taylor Swift?) and opened up an audio-link. Oh, joy. ] 


Someone! Get this thing off of me! Before I find a saw!

Maybe it's a little surprising. Or. Okay. Maybe. It's a lot surprising. Given Savitar-or-Sam taking her hand and squeezing it is the first time since she's arrived he's even touched her (touched anyone that she's seen), and her heart is already doing that 'the Grinches heart grew three sizes that day' from already being not small. All delight and moved emotion and surprise and promise to herself she'll keep this promise, help him, and it's only starting to bubble toward words -- so Kara is nothing like prepared for suddenly having arms thrown around her.

There's a surprised "Oh!" even as Kara raises her free arm to find his shoulder and hug him back, and maybe that first reaction doubles or triples even further within the slim frame of her chest. There's a light, kind of awkward laugh, and somewhere in between them her can got dropped for this, but this is more important anyway. Beginnings always are.

He doesn't see it now, how could he possibly, but a lot of the things he'll do going forward can probably be traced to this moment. Her belief in him, this hug for her. Him half-heartedly attempting to 'help' the Barry Allen from Earth 2, going to 'Camelot' for Caitlin, actually going to a diner with his temporal original. Anything else. Barry Allen had Joe West, and apparently Savitar has Kara Danvers.

The laugh gets a snort from him, a sort of vague semblance of a laugh. "I think I've had way too much to drink."

Ha. No kidding.

[iamsupergirl]

If that wasn't supposed to make her laugh linger a little, it was badly chosen. As it is, it stays, amused light and just the edge of congenial humor in her tone as she pulls back from the hug. A small pressed small and pleased, even as it's threatening to escape that. "That is probably true."

"But, at least, you know it works now and that there are drinks somewhere here for people like us?"

[vivifier]

He's certainly not going to begrudge her some amusement. Not at all. "That's true. Experimentation is...key. Or something!"

Ah yes. The 'or something' part of drunkenness has arrived.

[iamsupergirl]

"Or something?" There's a crinkle of her nose, but the smile stays the whole time. She might be teasing him for that, indeed. It might be one of the most unspecific but enthusiastic things he or anyone with his face has ever said, and, honestly, while she's seen a lot of people drunk in the alien bar, she's never seen even Barry, himself, drunk even. It's all rather amusing.

(Maybe even a little endearing after those words and being suddenly hugged.)

"Where did you say you got this--" There's some looking on the couch for where that second can rolled away to. "--again?

[vivifier]

It's only fair, right? He's never seen her drunk either. At least, not yet. Someday, perhaps!

"Star Labs." She may find a can 'hidden' in the couch. Seriously, Savitar? Who are you even hiding it from? "I might've snuck in."

[iamsupergirl]

Maybe not as cute. The whole breaking and entering for beer-thing.
Except that begs a bigger question: "Why?"

Before, stacking, "Does it belong to anyone here?
Or has the team from your Earth taken it back over?"

There's already at least the main three of them that she's seen.

[vivifier]

"Because I wanted to?" Is that a good reason? No, that's a terrible reason. "I haven't seen anyone over there."
