This is Oracle speaking.

We have just received notice that an assailant known as the Reverse Flash has been identified among the new arrivals. He is a metahuman imbued with the ability to tap into the Speed Force, which allows him to move, run, think, and react at a speed that may violate most of your world's laws of physics.

He is to be considered highly dangerous and capable of grave harm.
If you must approach him, do so with great caution.

I'm a very cool person?

[waytodie]

Okay.

Now the real answer.

[She didn’t mean it as the burn it kind of is… but she knows there must be more to the story, here, sir.]

[accelerate]

[ Good try. Barry may inform everyone and their grandmother about this secret identity from time to time, but revealing this information is like getting blood out of a stone. Telling strangers, regardless of their intention, isn't something he does flippantly. ]

Have you spoken to him?

[waytodie]

[Can’t blame her for trying, with a warning message like the initial one.]

No. this is the first I have even heard of him.

I figure someone worth this kind of warning label must have a good story, though, yes?

[accelerate]

I have a feeling you and I might have to disagree on what makes a "good story". He's just a guy who's less cool than me. There's nothing more to it than him wanting to be on my level.

And I'd prefer it if a lot of people didn't feel the need to go poke him to see just how cool he is.

[waytodie]

Do not worry, Speedy Man, I will not go steal your boyfriend.

[accelerate]

That's incredibly comforting, thank you.

[ No, it is. The fewer people who go after Thawne, the better! ]

[waytodie]

I do not know how to feel that you did not deny him as your boyfriend. I thought he was an enemy, is that not the point of this warning in the first place?

[You can't see her, but she is squinting about it all right now.

What was the point of the warning, if there was no danger or threat? It does make Barry's insistences a little... suspect to her, if se's honest.]

[accelerate]

I kind of felt it added a little flavor to it. Doesn't everyone love a twisted romance?

[ God fucking help him if Thawne ever finds out about this. ]

[waytodie]

[She huffs a soft laugh at that.] I do not think Lady Gaga meant for you to take love advice from Bad Romance, you know?

[accelerate]

But she did mean for me to take love advice from Paparazza, right? Why cast Aleksander Skarsgård?

[waytodie]

Isn't that one about a stalker? [Beat.] Well, maybe your Reverse Flash took notes there, actually. [She hums softly, a note of consideration or amusement, hard to say exactly which.]

[brat]

This isn't the space for that.

[waytodie]

Oh, are we not discussing things in the way you would like us to?

[brat]

If you want to bond by making jokes about obsessive psychopaths, I would recommend the bar.

[waytodie]

Is it past your bedtime? You seem cranky.

[You wanted her to double down on the snark and the jokes, right? >_> ]

[brat]

Very original of you.
This is a secure line, not one meant for idle gossip.

[waytodie]

You know... not everyone lives for being a stoic wall all the time. And you seem to be the only one taking issue, here.

[brat]

If you want to gossip, take it to a different channel.

We are here to share information. This isn't information sharing.

[waytodie]

[She sighs, because a part of her does still have points to make, but the rest of her knows she really should just... not. So, instead of pointing out that conversations aren't so linear all the time, or asking if he understands the wandering nature of them at all, she decides to let it go. A soft huff of a tone as she says--]

Fine, fiiiine.

[Feed disconnected]

not here.

[accelerate]

[ Barry's grateful Robin's taken some of the heat off him. That Paparazzi reference was ill-thought of—it's too close to home when he'd been trying to steer it away from the facts.

As for The Flash, well… he's either popcorning this or he's run off somewhere. He's a busy man! He's so not running away from a conversation! ]
