[ Cisco appropriately oohs and aahs at Lup's instagram, and it definitely looks like she has grasped both photography and the concept of social media with startling speed.

It couldn't be clearer that these are things he cares about, that he's telling Lup about them to convince her that his world is not totally dull just because it lacks magic. ]
And superheroes are kind of like... they're people who make the world a better place. Like, rescuing people from fires, catching murderers, preventing disasters - but they do it a mask and costume and with a nickname so nobody knows who they really are. Lotta superheroes are metas, but not all of 'em.
[ It shouldn't really come as a surprise that she's never seen a movie. It's just that, by the time he met Taako, he'd already gotten a bit of a crash course on pop culture, from Clark and others. Cisco declares: ]
