[If this were anyone else, someone could make this into a cute and intimate (read: romantic) moment. But it's Keith, so he just does as she says, keeping his eyes open as they go horizontal, which is just amazing. Keith craves the level of control that this gives the two of them right now, even if his is only a facsimile of it provided by the circumstances.]

I've never thought about what it's like to fly like this. I've done it in space, and while I guess it can be terrifying ... it's not for me. Not in the least.

[ essentially laying in midair like this distributes keith's weight a little better. means kara won't get tired so quickly and they can do this for more than just a couple minutes. ]

It's the same for me. There was so much about landing on Earth that was frightening. But flying was never one of those things. It's like-- [ gods, how does she even explain it? ] It's like freedom, in a way.

[ she pauses, then laughs a little self-consciously. ]

That probably sounds cheesy.

No, it sounds fine. [Kara hasn't gotten a friendship speech from Keith yet, but there is a high likelihood of it happening in the future. It's part of his cute awkwardness when he plays leader and doesn't feel like he's under fire.]

Even before I knew ... what I was, I always wanted to go to space. I didn't think I could. But it happened. And it felt freeing. It was. I found myself out there.

[As a part of the galaxy as a whole.

A part of the cosmology of it all.]

I get it.
