Barry flinched a bit at the sharp tone, but nodded.  “Okay.  If that’s what you want okay.  I..”  He sighed, standing and moving back out of the cell.  “Sleeping bag, pillow…any snacks?  Or maybe your laptop?  Anything.”  Barry was pleading, begging him to request something. He needed to care for his friend somehow, knowing he was inadequate in every other way.

I just want to go home, Cisco thought to himself as he looked up to Barry.
