Kill him or you'll never see your sister alive.

Something that slides its way into my brain unannounced at least twice a week is Barry’s little head tilt in Going Rogue

You know, the part where he points out Len’s mugshot and Joe gets a face like he’s sucking a lemon. Barry says the name Leonard is almost as bad as Bartholomew, to which Joe responds “Snart ain’t sexy, either”

AND BARRY TILTS HIS HEAD WITH A LIL BROW QUIRK AND A SMILE AS IF TO SAY

“I dunno, I kinda like it…”

do you ever think about how leonard starts out calling barry “barry” even though we frequently see him referring to other characters by their last name because using barry’s first name—his nickname, even���is such an effective way to rub it in his face that he know who barry is, knows about his life and his friends and family

but leonard never actually uses that leverage, he doesn’t even tell lisa, and so “barry” goes from an explicit threat to an empty threat to… barry’s nickname

and leonard can’t just be calling barry by the same nickname that his friends and family use. it sounds too much like he is barry’s friend or family. which he’s not.

and it’s so much more glaring because barry is still calling him “snart” like they’re acquaintances at best, while leonard is locked into calling him “barry” like he thinks they’re BFFs

but obviously he’s far too stubborn to clumsily retreat to “allen” to put them back on even ground, so he pivots to mockingly calling barry “the flash” even to his face, even when they’re alone with the masks off (like in infantino street: he greets him with “hello, flash,” “the flash, a thief?” “the flash should remain a hero”)

but interestingly he’s still “barry” when leonard is asking him to save him from king shark. he’s “barry” when leonard is talking him down from killing in cold blood. leonard is always so intentional about the way he uses barry’s names, it is such an interesting contrast to the way barry used leonard’s

(barry, who, of course, improvised calling leonard “lenny” one time, and two people got shot over it. barry was one of them.)

OMG it has been so long since I've drawn them together! This was WAY overdue.

I could honestly see this interaction between Snart and Barry too

Snart: Okay, we gotta get through this locked door, Rip quick give me your credit card

Rip: Okay

Snart, pocketing it: Thanks. Sara, kick the door down

enemies to lovers yes, but have you considered enemies to mutually pining idiots to lovers??

[coldflashfan]

I guess your secret’s safe, Flash. For now.

It actually happened in the show too, lol

[coldflashfan]

we deserved to see len meeting other versions of barry from other earths, you know every time he’d literally be like

like no other version of barry is as remotely interesting as HIS barry & he would be very snitty to all of them. although to be clear he would very much still try to sleep with them. but mainly just so he could mention it to his barry the next time he shows up to stop one of his heists, because it’s giving barry a complex and it’s going to be extremely funny when barry finally just jumps him over it

How have I only just thought of this....

[coldflashfan]

Leonard: Smart is attractive. Educate me on something I don't know.

Barry: The mouth of a jellyfish is also an anus.

Leonard: Stop.
