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 ]
you should try to teach him some new ones anyway. i'm sure he'd appreciate it.
[ And oh, this is going to be... challenging... ]
it's a play on words. there's this character from a movie named han solo. yolo means to live your life to the fullest? take risks. i like both of them so i put them together.
i'm glad you guys have each other, that's a big help. i think i'd have a hard time if i didn't have any of my friends here with me.
[ And a second text, a few seconds later: ]
if you ever want to talk to someone with a different perspective, you can contact me. i probably won't really understand what it was like where you're from, but it's good to get out of your own head sometimes. 🙂
[ Arya has absolutely no idea how to respond to that. First Cisco suggested talking about what happened, and now Barry's suggesting that too? It all seems terribly counter-intuitive. She doesn't want to be reminded of what happened to her in Westeros and Braavos. She wants to forget about it, to maybe enjoy the family she has left and fill the holes inside herself.
And both of them -- Barry and Cisco -- are being so nice, and it doesn't make any sense, not when they have no reason to be. ]
Thank you.

i'm sorry. i know what it's like trying to figure out what home is.
but now you're here, right? and you can do pretty much anything you want.

That word has so many meanings.
Do you have better days and worse days?
First I have to figure out what I want.
no subject
yeah, anything can be cool. but not like temperature, just impressive.
i do. some days are good, some days aren't. you just have to try to focus on the good ones. that might help you figure out what you want, too.

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.)

why did you pick no one?

I see. That is an apt nickname, then. 👍
When I first arrived, the glowing box asked for my name.
[ this is where it gets tricky. ]
I did not have one to give.
My world is not like your world.
I had to stop being Arya. I was not supposed to be a person -- I was no one, so that is what I put in the glow box.
I am working on getting her back.

followed by less cute. Mildly concerning, more like. Barry's brow furrows as he mulls the texts over, and his own answer's a little slower. ]
identity's weird, too. kind of like home.
does being here make it easier?
no subject
Sometimes. My sister is here, and she often makes it easier, but sometimes it is confusing and frightening.
It is a process.
