[ hey she's not wrong ]

I see. I think.

Those were long ago, but I will try.

🙂

(or : ) if you prefer the smile made of words. In Harry's world they are called emoticons, but I like the sound of smile better.)

[breacher]

His name's Pietro.

[ There's a long pause between texts as Harrison keeps deleting and rewriting it over and over. ]

He's Wanda's brother. Have you met her?

[reactant]

trying's enough. and before you know it you'll probably end up with new good things, too.

you know harry?
and you're right, smile's better :))

[reactant]

wanda's brother is a speedster??

[ THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. But also, hold up. ]

she said he'd died?

[breacher]

I know.

Eddie died too.

[whichend]

Yes! He is very smart but I do not think he is very good at telling jokes. That's not a problem, though. I know many people who are nice but not very good at telling jokes.

(But maybe he could practice?)

[ she's very concerned for harry's well being ok shh ]

[reactant]

[ Even over text, he knows Cisco well enough to guess that he's treading carefully. Barry appreciates it, though he wouldn't hold it against him if he didn't — not when it's something that's impacting him. ]

i know. but it isn't your fault.

we'll keep practicing, help you get better at controlling it. maybe the correlation between adrenaline and vibing is what's making you see things that are kind of intense?

[reactant]

[ this is officially disgustingly cute. ]

did he try to tell you a joke?

[reactant]

yeah, i know
i mean i get how it's just

i wonder how they're taking it.

[breacher]

I don't know maybe you should ask them.

[breacher]

. . . That's sarcasm. Don't ask them.

[reactant]

ok so i get how by your weird harry logic not asking is the way to go, but
i'm probably going to ask her if she's okay. that's allowed, you know that, right?

[breacher]

Oh. I thought you meant Eddie and Pietro.

I think you should talk to Wanda.

[reactant]

[ Oh. ]

i did. ask eddie.

[ Sort of. Not recently, though, which makes him think maybe he should. ]

but i'll leave pietro to his sister. i don't think he likes me, anyway.

[breacher]

Oh.

[ Let's. Let's just leave it at that. ]

I don't think he likes anyone.

But you should really talk to Wanda.

[reactant]

i will.

how well do you know her?

[breacher]

[ how well is "she covertly visits my workshop a lot." ]

Fairly well.

[reactant]

are you going to talk to her?

[breacher]

[ ughhhhhhHHHHHHHHH. ]

Don't push it.

[reactant]

[ ok except for the part where he's toTALLY GONNA PUSH IT ]

you wouldn't want me to talk to her so much if you didn't care about her.

[breacher]

That's not

I was with her when she found her previously deceased brother's jacket in her loft.

She did not take it very well.

So I would say we have already talked about it.

[reactant]

[ Oh. That's... rough. ]

then i'm glad she wasn't alone.

[ He isn't stupid. Barry knows that Harry doesn't exactly have a soft touch, but he seriously doubts he'd turn a cold shoulder to an upset young woman. ]

she still might appreciate hearing from you, now that he's here. she won't have to explain the situation to you, right?

[whichend]

No.

Oh, what's a hanyolo? It sounds like a kind of sweet.

[breacher]

Sure.

[ It's fired back almost immediately, dismissive. The next message takes a couple moments to come through. ]

I have my reasons for wanting you to talk to her.

[reactant]

[ Not what he's expecting. After a short pause: ]

any reasons you're gonna share with me?
