[ After a few hours of failing to fall asleep, Wally gets bored and decides to address the network at some point in the middle of the night. He can get oddly reflective when he's tired. ]

For curiosity's sake, what is everyone's thoughts on time travel? I suppose it's even possible some people here might have experience with it given we come from so many different worlds.

[ He stops to release a loud yawn, before continuing on. ]

I mean, if you knew something in your past was wrong, would you go back to change it and just deal with whatever the consequences are if you could do it? What if someone told you that by going back to save their son it would save thousands of lives?

[ If one was to get the feeling he has found himself in such situations in the past, then they would be correct. ]

Or, would you simply accept things for how they are and move forward no matter how hard that might be?

I consider you my friend, too, you know. I never would've told you about my powers if I didn't.

[ Of course he's not as close to Wally as he'd been to Barry, but it still bears saying. Particularly when, from the sound of it, Wally could really use a friend these days. ]

You can talk to me about it any time. Day or night, okay? Open invitation to share any and all time travel or speedforce related rants and associated feelings with me. 'Cause you know... I mean, it's not the same exactly, but, I do know the territory.

[otherflash]

Yeah, I know. You're probably the best one I have left here. I just didn't want to sound too cheesy.

[ It's always been easier for him to express his feelings and such sentiments in roundabout ways for the most part. ]

That means a lot. I don't usually get like this, but there are just these moments where everything sneaks up on me. And if there's ever anything I can do for you, don't hesitate to ask. Well, unless you're looking to chuck some grenades at somebody again.

[ Nope. He's never not going to tease Cisco about that little incident even if it was actually completely harmless. ]

[franciscoramon]

[ Cisco is surprised and touched to hear that. On the one hand, it is flattering, to realize that Wally considers him not just a friend, but a close one. On the other hand, it worries Cisco, to hear that from the sound of it, other people that Wally was close to have left, that he might not have as many people around him and supporting him as he needs. Cisco makes a mental note to check up on him a bit more often. ]

Don't worry, I've been friends with Barry for ages, remember? And if your Barry's anything like mine, you'll know that my cheesiness threshold is, like, through the roof by now.

[ It seems likely to him that Barry Allens all through the multiverse must be giant cheeseballs. Just one of those things. ]

You're seriously never gonna let me hear the end of that, huh?

[ But Cisco doesn't mind in the slightest; he'd earned that teasing and he accepts it with a smile and a laugh. ]
