“Send me the emoticon and my muse will react to your muse” [meme]
“Wait, did I just hear you right? Did you just ask me out? Isn’t that supposed to be the other way around?” Cisco laughed, biting the inside of his cheek lightly. “But I’d love to. You wanna go out or stay in? I make a mean alfredo sauce, it’s irresistable.”
“That’s a hard question. There’s a lot of women in my life that have come and gone, but only a few have left a lasting impression on my heart. I’d probably say Lisa. There’s this connection that I can’t really explain.”
Okay. I think I’m caught up on replies. Let me know if I missed any!
“Reverb? Nope. The name’s Vibe. I’m a good guy.” Cisco said with a smile as he pushed his hair out of his face to better see the man in front of him. He saw it was his friend and laughed. “Oh I see, you’re playing with me, aren’t ya? Good one, Bar. Good one. Nice getup, by the way. What is this, halloween?”
“Vibe,” Barry repeated confused. But he looked at the guy. “You like an awful lot like Reverb. And I’m not ‘playing’ with you. This is what I usually wear to work,” he adjusted his glasses better on his face. “Nobody calls me, Bar, usually, it’s either Barry or Bartholomew.”
“Reverb? Wait, you’re not from this earth. How did you jump dimensions?” Cisco asked, taking a step forward. “Bartholomew, are there other metahumans on your earth that can open interdimensional breaches?” He began to worry that there was yet another viber out there.
“Yeah, no one wants that after sitting in a chair.” He chuckled, walking the chair closer to the desk and pulling out a small thumb drive. “I have a few new profiles for some metahuman-esque prisoners we were wondering if STAR labs could hold. Also…they need some good names.”
“Ooh yes! We could always hold more baddies.” Cisco grinned, taking the thumb drive and sticking it in the computer and scrolling through the prisoner list. “Sweet! Yeah, we could do this. Is there no room over on your earth, or do you guys just want an excuse to jump dimensions and visit us?”
Vibe? Vibe? Jason’s eyebrows shoot upwards and he’s biting his tongue bloody to keep himself from laughing. It sounds like a fancy sex toy, or even a strip club, and he just can’t because this guy is completely serious.
“Sure. Cool. Nice ta meet ya, Vibe,” he chokes out. “You can call me Alley Cat.”
“Same to you.” Cisco said with a nod. “Are you a meta or just a vigilante?” He asked, crossing his arms in the shadow he stood in.
Lisa’s smile seemed to be fixed upon her face. “I promise I’m not lying. I am actually very in the closet about being a geek, but I think I can trust you with that secret. An unexpected journey is my favorite Hobbit movie too, mainly because my crush is just so blissfully happy but then of course he dies in the last one. Just my luck. haha The Two Towers is my favorite LOTR, but any scene with Arwen are great, she is just such a badass.” Her eyes keep glancing back and forth from the movie to her laptop before taking a deep breath and trying to not feel too happy.
“What? You’re a closet geek? Laaame.” He typed back. “YES. Girl! you are a person after my heart!” Cisco gushed, grinning like a dork as he watched the movie. “Wait, do you like Doctor Who or Merlin or anything from the BBC?” He typed in a third message, realizing after that that was probably one too many messages.
Mick frowns, he had heard something going on behind the scenes with the nerd squad, Lisa had commented that something was going on when she was ‘keeping an eye’ on Cisco and the others.
“What happened?” he asks carefully, he didn’t want to upset him or make him feel like crap about it all but he knew it usually helped to talk about things, all the shrinks he had to see when he was kid made that point clear.
“I got bored at the safe house” he shrugs “Rogues were annoying me so I needed to get out of there”
The music stopped, and Cisco’s heart started beating faster. “To my brother? He died not too long ago.” He turned his attention to the strings, running his fingers up and down them to avoid eye contact with the other.
Sorry for all the ooc posts recently. I’m solely on mobile now, and our power is back [YAY]! Wifi should be back up tomorrow, so I’ll be on 😉 😉
