[ It had been a thousand times worse. And Cisco doesn't want to lie and pretend that's not true - not to Barry, anyway. But there are a lot of ways of answering 'are you okay' that don't quite mean yes and don't quite mean no. ]
nothing i couldn't handle.
the important thing is even though he saw me vibe, he hasn't got any idea i can make it happen intentionally, or that i can see stuff that's not about me. so i'm gonna find a way to use that.
