“Oliver isn’t going to hurt you. If he were than you’d be hurt already. I think he’s just adjusting to the idea of a world with people beyond the lines of good and bad. They bend those rules and you’re one of them. Though you’re nothing like them.” She shrugged brushing the hair out of his face, “I won’t lie and say it was all that smart but that makes you perfect for this kind of work. None of us make smart decisions and sometimes we have to pay for those errors. Though besides the price we pay, we save people.” Sara rolled her eyes playfully, “just because you were the tech guy doesn’t mean you weren’t as important as Barry. You just happened to save his ass more times than not. You’re not a fool, Cisco. You’re good. We need more good in the world that’s why I am here trying to remind you that you’re not alone and this isn’t an all or nothing situation. You’re already a hero.”

Cisco sat and listened sat as his friend spoke, staring down at his feet. About halfway through, he began to bring his head up, his eyes finding Sara’s face immediately. A smile spread across his face as she finished. “Thanks, Sara. You have no idea how much I needed to hear that.”
