Every Brainia Scene Ever: 6x01 [5/5]

#supergirl #supergirledit #brainia #brainiaedit #brainiac 5 #nia nal #querl dox #dreamdox #where to even start with this scene huh? #the fact that Nia’s so nervous to bring up what he said on the ship in case it was just a heat of the moment thing #and how Brainy’s clearly trying to figure out if this means what he thinks it means because he just can’t believe it #how is it possible that Nia Nal is offering him a second chance after everything he’s done? After he hurt her? #and that disbelief immediately morphing into the Brainy we see every time he talks about Nia’s capabilities- if there’s one thing that #you can count on it’s Brainy’s utter faith in Nia as a hero #(and the almost deprecating acknowledgement of the fact that Nia doesn’t need protecting #he KNOWS - he’s spent the last few months not being able to be by her side knowing she’s taking on Dominators and who knows what else) #and his little gasp when she confirms she loves him too. Like it’s clearly where the conversation was headed #but it’s more than he had dared even dream of let alone allow himself to hope for since the moment he broke her heart #and the way the tears are beginning to fall down his face in earnest by the time she offers the pinky promise (a legally binding contract) #they’re both fully committed to making this work to being completely transparent with each other this time #and after Nia remained so dedicated to keeping her promise to him in spite of the break up I can only imagine how deep this one goes #his little inhale as she’s nuzzling into his shoulder just kills me #he’s so completely overwhelmed by everything that’s just happened #Once again you can’t convince me that that’s not her SPOT on his shoulder #the way she’s nuzzling in like she just can’t get close enough #and the fact that even though their pinkies never unlock his free hand falls to her knee to increase their points of contact even further #there’s so much left to deal with but in that moment they’re the only two people in the world #my gifs #otp: what does love feel like? #*ebs
