Seems to be a lot of introductions and specific requests on this thing recently. Let's change things up a bit. Here's a few general questions for the masses:

1. If you could travel to any time period, when would it be and why?
2. If you could have any superpower, what would you want? Why?
3. What's your stripper name? Name of your first or favorite pet/stuffed animal + the name of the street you grew up on. Mine's 'Bear Handley'.

Feel free to comment on everybody else's answers. That's what's supposed to make forums like this interesting.

[ leonard squints at his phone. time travel... probably should've expected it could happen here if they could bring him back from the dead. ]

January 2016. I take it you're a little behind that?

[franciscoramon]

[ Suspicion confirmed. ]

october 2015.

full offense but i'm still having a hard time believing you'd join the good guys willingly. doesn't really seem like your style. what's in it for you?

[atms]

A chance to steal some of history's greatest scores. Those skills are why Mick and I were recruited, after all.

[franciscoramon]

okay THAT, i believe.

and you said you're all time traveling taking down some dude named "vandal savage"?

that's not really his name, right? like that's gotta be some kind of alias he thought sounded badass

[ Cisco doesn't really believe Snart's changed any - there's a saying about leopards and spots - but it does seem like him to take advantage of an opportunity, even if it means pretending to be good for a little while. ]

[atms]

He's originally from ancient Egypt, so I'm gonna go with yes, he named himself that because he thought it was badass.

Sounds more like he's trying too hard to me, but not everyone can have good taste.

[franciscoramon]

wait for real.
is he, like, a mummy?

[ Cisco may have watched too many movies. It's just possible. ]

definitely strikes me as overcompensating.

[ Aw, how nice, they agreed on something. That doesn't mean Cisco is ready to bring out the welcome mat. ]

so what are your plans, here, with no tryhard supervillain to fight? you gonna go back to the kidnapping and torture and general roguery?

[ Cisco's not in the mood to mince words. ]

[atms]

Nigh-immortal magic user. A mummy would be much easier to deal with. We'd just need to borrow Brenden Fraser and Rachel Weisz for a day.

[ movies are, hilariously enough, something they have in common. ]

Kidnapping and torture generally aren't my style. Especially since I've got nothing to gain from either of them here.

Believe it or not, Cisco, I'm just planning on surviving until I can get home.

[franciscoramon]

a perfect movie.

[ What, he's not going to pretend not to like the Mummy just because he's talking to Snart. ]

oh, thanks, great to know my brother was a special case.

[ Just in case Snart thinks he's forgotten or forgiven. Cisco's willing to believe, for the time being, that Snart means what he says, but that doesn't mean his guard is going down. ]

doesn't really matter if i believe it. actions speak louder than words.
but just know that if you try to pull that kind of shit here? surviving's gonna get a hell of a lot harder for you.

[atms]

That was really more like emotional blackmail than torture.

[ it's a bit of a thin line between the two, but there is a distinction, okay. even captain cold has standards. ]

There's no real point to me doing anything like that again, even back in our world. So you can chill out.

[franciscoramon]

sure if that's what you gotta tell yourself to sleep at night.

my point is don't even think about 'emotionally blackmailing' anybody here or there are gonna be consequences.

just a psa.

1/2 because i can't resist.

P.S. the threats work better without the vacuum cleaner.
