gods and monsters
(2841 words) by Mayarene Rose
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Flash (TV 2014)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Characters: Cisco Ramon, Clifford DeVoe
Additional Tags: Dark fic, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, aka ‘what if cw actually let cisco use his powers’
Summary:
Sometimes, Cisco wonders if this is what Reverb meant, if this is being what a god is. Does it matter what he fights for when he can kill a man with a breath?
Does it matter what he believes in when the power to destroy and create everything rests on his whim?
He has the power of a god. Does it matter if he still wants to be human?
Cisco decides he’s had enough. He goes to find Devoe. Coda to 4x10
Y’all, I made a thing

times in jail (1688 words) by Mayarene Rose Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: The Flash (TV 2014) Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Barry Allen & Everyone Characters: Barry Allen, Gregory Wolfe Additional Tags: Humor, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Barry is too good for his own good, everyone is exasperated Summary:
Thing is, it’s kinda hard to mistake the yellow lightning, or just miss it. Or the superheroes that keep breaking into Iron Heights to see a certain someone and Greg is not amused.
In which: Barry makes friends, starts clubs, and pointedly does not break out of prison. Also, Gregory Wolfe is not trafficking metahumans and is just a very tired warden.

Why Dick Grayson should NOT be casted Romani.
A lot of white people have been begging and pleading for A Romani actor to be casted as Dick Grayson but I think it would be more appropriate for me to speak on this. I am a person of colour and Nightwing is my favourite character in all of fiction. I beleve fully that casting a white actor in the roll of Nightwing wouldn’t be “whitewashing” at all and here’s why.
Dick was not created Romani. Dick has been white for most of his 77 years of being in comics only being rettconned to be a QUARTER Romani in the early 2000s and since then, most writers just ignore that one story. Casting him as a full Romani would just be inaccurate.
Dick does not look Romani. Dick is almost always drawn to be white and casting an actor who is darker skinned will just be innacurate to the source matterial. This is coming from a person of colour here. I want an actual adaptation of the character from the comics on screen. Don’t we all?
We should fight against Hollywood whitewashing it’s true. But Dick Grayson is the wrong character to do this with. Casting someone who is tanned would be more than good enough to represent his Romani history.
#reblog#dc#dick grayson#my thoughts on the thing#dc only remembers dick grayson as romani when they need him to be exotic#or for an interesting plot point#he doesn't particularly need to *look* romani but to cast him as romani would just be lip service#basically saying 'look how progressive we are'#because dc never once gave a damn about dick grayson being romani until they can capitalize on it#and casting him as romani now feels a lot like that

Wally juts out his chin and it’s not arrogance, it’s not defiance, and it’s not him trying to prove himself. There’s nothing left to prove, not to them, and not to himself. Nothing left to find back there.

A/N: This is actually coda to 4x01 which I got around to watching like an hour ago and I just had to type this up so yeah. I’ll catch up with this show eventually
When worse comes to worse, Cisco knows that he has an incredibly effective habit of repressing the hell out of his issues until they go away, burying his problems under equations and diagrams and machines and hey, if those don’t work out, there’s always Star Trek. It’s maybe a little stupid and maybe a lot idealistic but a little faith never hurt anyone.
(Or a lot. Maybe a lot. More faith than is smart and Cisco has always given everything he has, even if it means it takes a little of his soul along the way.)
Faith can do anything, his Mama used to say, when Cisco was still tiny and still held onto every word she used to say the way only a five-year-old can. It’s never really worked out that way for him, and if he were perfectly honest, faith ends up causing more problems that it fixes, but hey, a man’s gotta cope somehow.
Barry has to come back. Caitlin has to get better. Absolute truths that absolutely nothing can disprove.
Cisco doesn’t deal with loss very well. Or at all. When he was eight, he dropped his Walkman down two flights of stairs and smashing it to pieces. Three hours later, he has it back to working condition, and maybe three hundred times better than it was before.
(He built four Flash suits, just in case, each one better than the last because losing one meant losing Barry and losing STAR Labs and losing everyone and…
Cisco really does not deal with loss very well.)
There’s something to be said about being a science prodigy and being a superhero at the same time, about constantly creating the impossible with his fingers, with his hands that makes him think that nothing’s actually impossible. Cisco’s not stupid enough to believe that he can unlock the secrets of the universe because that’s never gonna happen but he doesn’t have to unlock the secrets, he doesn’t have to know everything. He just has to do it.
Because there’s always a way out. There’s always a way of twisting the equation, tweaking the variables in-between, or just making a completely new equation to get the result he wants. It’s rarely easy but it’s never impossible.
There’s no such thing as irredeemable (he sees her fall before his eyes and knows in his heart that there’s no coming back from that but that doesn’t matter because he can save her. He can.) and there’s no such thing as unattainable (he never really understood the speedforce but then, the speedforce has never met the likes of Cisco fucking Ramon before.)
It makes him maybe a little stupid, and maybe a lot reckless.
But hey, it worked and you don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.
And it will work, he thinks as he looks at the speedforce bazooka in his hands. It has to.
