Barry Allen :D

character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS

ship with: Iris, Cisco, Len, Patty, Linda, Eddie

favorite friendship: Caitlin Snow, Linda Park, Joe West

general opinions: Nerd Son, I love him but he needs help tbh

[classypeacebluebird]

I've never heard of that book but OMG are you insane??? That would be the worst thing because Barry wouldn't want to move on and Len would just be sitting back, not wanting to be friends with Barry but respects that he's still in love with Eddie

Funnily enough I think this is exactly what happened in the book, it was really awkward for the people involved (although I think that might be because of the angel person possessing the living guy occasionally which was really weird) Plus Eddie would be really conflicted because on one hand he stills loves Barry but on the other, he knows he can’t expect Barry to not move on eventually. And poor Len is just stuck in the middle not knowing what to do.

I really need to stop making myself sad.

“Hey you called this number at like 3AM and we talked about some pretty heavy shit do you remember any of that?” Any pairing that you wish

((ColdFlash, because of course I pick that XD))

Barry was definitely not awake enough for this. It was ten in the morning and he should have been well-rested, at least to the point of being able to get his coffee without wanting to fall asleep in the queue - but last night, someone has once again confused ‘68′ and ‘86′ and called him at three in the morning.

It happened at least once every couple of months; turned out Barry’s number was almost the same as the local suicide prevention hotline, and Barry never had the guts to hang up on those poor people. After all, if somebody felt shitty enough they felt like they needed to call for anonymous counselling in the middle of the night, then making a mistake with a phone number and being hung up on could set them off even worse, couldn’t it? It just never sat right with Barry to tell those people the truth: so he did his best to listen, to keep them talking as long as possible in hopes that it would help. He even got a few books after the third time it happened. Iris made light-hearted fun of him when he told her; and then, she frowned and told him that he should direct those people to the right number, because he was far from a licensed therapist and he could do more harm than good, in the end.

But he never quite brought himself to do that at the beginning of such a call. He let the people rant, wind down, and if it sounded like they weren’t doing much better by the time Barry had done whatever was in his power, he explained... but usually, the people thanked him and hung up before he could get around to confessing that he was, in fact, just a forensic scientist with an unfortunate phone number.

But never, to this day, had he ever heard the voice from those phone calls out in the streets.

The tall man in front of him was holding his phone against his right ear with his left hand, then switched, his other hand rooting around in his pockets for change, because it would soon be his turn to order.

“Yes, Lisa - no, I don’t think you should wear- no. Definitely not. Why are you even calling me?” he was saying, and his voice had a little sardonic lilt to it. It had not been there yesterday - he’d sounded soft, almost broken as he spoke about the anniversary of his mother’s death, about his father in jail, about his sister who he worried about... for a while, Barry’s heart stopped at the similarities between their lives. And then, the guy took a sharp breath and spoke more about his father, about the kind of childhood he and his sister had, the bruises, the screams, the constant terror. He said that his father was due to be released from prison soon, and how he didn’t know what would happen, if the man would try to find him or his sister. He’d sounded terrified, and Barry had been so close to telling him to call the actual hotline... but then he swallowed, so loudly that Barry could hear it on the other end of the phone, and thanked Barry for his help.

“Whoever this is... thank you,” he said and he sounded better, as if he’d flipped a switch, as if he’d just needed to pour out the excess of all those overflowing feelings so he would have room to take more, of everything. “I needed this. I can’t tell my sister any of it, she deserves to be free of all this shit. Thanks again.”

Then he hung up, just as Barry’s alarm clock switched to 4:53.

And now, he was standing in front of Barry at Jitters and he was tall and gorgeous and... laughing into his phone softly, talking to his sister like nothing was wrong, like he had not spent so much time, just a couple of hours ago, venting to a stranger about anxiety and depression and childhood traumas he always swept under the rug and could never quite overcome.

Barry was reaching out before he could stop himself. This was a horrible idea - the worst he ever had, probably. And he could not prevent his hand from touching the man’s elbow.

He visibly tensed under Barry’s touch, but he mumbled ‘call you later’ to the phone and turned to Barry with a raised eyebrow. They were the same height, more or less, but he felt so much larger. Maybe it was in a way he carried himself, with easy confidence, like he knew exactly how much space he took up and refused to apologize for it. 

“Can I help you?”

“Uh... hey. I think... we talked last night? Um. On the phone.”

The dark blue coat reflected in his eyes when they went wide. Barry could read panic in his face and he felt like an idiot - however, there was no way but forward now.

“Don’t worry. I’m not gonna tell anyone. Anything. I mean I don’t even know your name, I just recognized your voice and-”

“Pretty sure those hotlines are supposed to be anonymous, kid,” the man sneered. God, he was perfect, even with that cruel, sarcastic twist to his mouth. Barry winced and felt his cheeks heat up.

“I... uh. Yeah. I guess?”

“You guess,” the man repeated. More irony - had Barry not heard him so vulnerable just hours ago, he would’ve believed all the bristles and spikes in his armor. “Then I guess you’re shit at your job, kid.”

“That’s... I’m actually a forensic scientist,” Barry shrugged, offering a sheepish smile. “You kinda got the wrong number?”

He could see the moment the implications dawned on the man. His whole face went hard, unreadable, and the pocket of his coat where his hand was still hidden bulged, as if he’d clenched his fist.

“You didn’t think to let me know earlier?”

He sounded pissed, and he stepped into Barry’s space, glowering. That was the first moment Barry realized he had maybe an inch on the guy.

Not that it would help him if the man decided to beat the crap out of him; Barry was all wiry limbs and very basic self-defense training. Judging by the way the guy’s arms strained in the confines of his coat, it was safe to assume that if this man threw a punch, Barry would feel it. For days.

“You sounded like you needed to talk!” he yelped and stepped back - he stumbled into a table and heard cups clinking and people hissing, and he turned to apologize, which let his elbow fly into the face of the unfortunate woman sitting right behind him.

A strong hand curled around his bicep and pulled him close to a very solid, very warm chest. 

The guy’s eyes were even more ridiculously blue up close.

“You’re a walking disaster, aren’t you,” he sighed, and Barry mentally groaned. 

“I’m sorry,” he sighed in defeat. “For everything. I just... I didn’t want you to go and... you know. Hurt yourself.”

The man frowned. 

“I wasn’t suicidal, kid, for fuck’s sake... I just needed to unload.”

“Forgive my mistake - you did call suicide prevention,” Barry huffed. “Well. Tried to.”

The guy stared at him for a few seconds, then simply rolled his navy eyes (how did anyone even have navy eyes, seriously) and pulled Barry out of the coffee-shop by the elbow.

“Hey! I said I’m sorry! No need to get all violent, okay?” Barry yelped, and the guy let him go once they were outside.

And then laughed at him.

The sound was throaty and raw and defeated, and Barry couldn’t help when his mouth quirked up to a smile in response.

“I’m really sorry,” he repeated. “Can I buy you apology coffee?”

Blue-Eyes blinked and then laughed again: “So first you lie about being a counselor, and now you’re asking a seriously damaged guy out? Is that why you pretend to be a hotline? Does that get you off?”

“NO!” Barry yelled in horror, before he realized the guy was still smiling, and he probably wouldn’t be if he truly believed Barry was some sort of a pervert who actually wanted to hear people be miserable. 

“Is that ‘no, I’m not asking you out’ or ‘no, I don’t actually get off on being called in the middle of the night about strangers’ issues’?”

“The latter,” Barry snorted, then blushed bright red and hastily added: “The former, too. I mean. Um. I did offer coffee, but...”

“How about we find another coffee shop while you figure that out? I don’t think they’ll let you come back to this one anytime soon, and I’ve got thirty-seven minutes before I need to be someplace else.”

“...okay.”

AWESOME!

[rantsofafangirl]

I was tagged by @acegraysons @coldestflash to do this meme thing. Thank you guys :) Send in two (or more) names and I’ll fill all this out about the ship! General

Rate the Ship - Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs

How long will they last? - I'd like to think forever and ever but I'm a sucker for   ColdThallen cheating stuff. Yep, that'll tear em apart :D

How quickly did/will they fall in love? - They come to realise that they always did love each other but they both didn't understand their feelings and then when one did, the other didn't. It took a while and a lot of pushing from everybody to get these two. 

How was their first kiss? - Awkward. It was on their first date and as much as they've waited Barry still didn't know whether it was appropriate. Barry went for the hug and Eddie went for full on kiss.

Wedding

Who proposed? - I ALWAYS loved the idea that they both plan on proposing at the same time.

Who is the best man/men? - They both settle on Iris but Cisco manages to get in on the action and they share duties. Of course everyone on Team S.T.A.R Labs is invited

Who is the braid’s maid(s)? -  Caitlin and Iris of course!

Who did the most planning? - I think they outsource it. Maybe not from wanting to. It's just that everyone wants to help out and to an extent it becomes out of their control.

Who stressed the most? - Both. They make each other stressed with their stress!

How fancy was the ceremony? -

Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.

Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? -  Eobard? But I also have a thing about Eddie and his dad not having an easy relationship. Being the only son of a conservative politician and marrying a man? Yeah I bet you he's off the list.

Sex

Who is on top? - Barry. Because Eddie always screamed Bottom to me. I only think that'd he'd top if he had rough day and needs to be in control or if Barry needs to relinquish it.

Who is the one to instigate things? - Eddie because Barry is still nervous about  overtly asking for it

How healthy is their sex life? -

Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now

How kinky are they? -

Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head

How long do they normally last? - I've never really considered it? Barry has a quick refractory period but he's also prone to premature ejaculation?  

Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? - Barry by nature needs more. Eddie doesn't like to leave Barry hard. They are always working on it.

How rough are they in bed? -

Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.

How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? -

No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.

Children

How many children will they have naturally? - I think if the science were available they'd have one. A boy  but I’ve been really into the single dad fics. I could see that being a possibility, a girl.

How many children will they adopt? - I like the idea of twins. One boy and one girl :)

Who gets stuck with the most diapers? -  I imagine them adopting toddlers or young children because a) I don't think they have time to raise and b) I like the idea that Barry continues the legacy

Who is the stricter parent? - Eddie because Barry insists on being the “Cool dad” all the time.

Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? - Eddie, he has to tell the kids AND Barry to stop doing stupid shit. Although I don't think it's so much “physical” stunts more like science experiments gone wild.

Who remembers to pack the lunch(es)? - Barry, he's they type to put cheesy notes/drawings in their lunch-boxes too. Cut the sandwiches up into shapes. 

Who is the more loved parent? - This question is nasty! Barry is the “favorite” because he's fun but they love them both equally.

Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings?-  Both, they are quite the attaction at their kid's school.

Who cried the most at graduation? -  Eddie while Barry was taking pictures and cheering and holloring like an idiot. He'd embarrass the fuck out of them  

Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? -  Both of them together with stern faces and crossed arms... and that's the best case scenario because I can just imagine if Grampa Joe got to them first!

Cooking

Who does the most cooking? - Barry and he's actually good at it.

Who is the most picky in their food choice? - Eddie, just because he's still really self conscious about his weight. He kinda hates how there's ALWAYS junk food around for Barry because he has to eat so such. 

Who does the grocery shopping? - Barry he know what he likes and Eddie can't bring himself to buy garbage for him.

How often do they bake desserts? - None, Iris always leaves them things to eat instead. Much to Eddie's dismay.

Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? - I'm not at all sure about this one.

Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? - I think both decide on what they want to do. It's the gift that are usually the surprise because they are both thoughtful gift givers.

Who is more likely to suggest going out? - Eddie. But not out out, like takeaway at home sorta deal.

Who is more likely to burn the house down accidentally while cooking? - Eddie bless his trying soul. He wanted to do something nice! Just once!!

Chores

Who cleans the room? - Barry because he can super speed it.

Who is really against chores? -  Neither really

Who cleans up after the pets? - I don't think they have time for pets

Who is more likely to sweep everything under the rug? - Neither.

Who stresses the most when guests are coming over? - Eddie, being a politicians kid would want everything perfect. It's ingrained in him to make sure they give a good impression.  

Who found a dollar between the couch cushions while cleaning? - Barry with a dorky grin!

Misc

Who takes the longer showers/baths? - Eddie because Barry speeds through mundane tasks. Of course there's an exception to the rule if they shower together ;)

Who takes the dog out for a walk? - I don't think they have a dog. If it was it'd be  Eddie.

How often do they decorate the room/house for the holidays? - ALL THE TIME! These two are holiday dorks.

What are their goals for the relationship? - Live happily-ever-after? I think that they just want to be together and be happy without all the weird crazy shit that goes on in CC.

Who is most likely to sleep till noon? - Barry. Eddie is super organized.

Who plays the most pranks? -  Barry. Little fucker, sometimes Eddie can get too stressed out. Barry see the jokes as heroic work.

[theflashbigbang]

Do you know of any Masquerade AU's?

None specifically for the Flash (or in general, really), sorry! These could include literally any storyline involving a masquerade. Your OTP could have different dates and end up dancing with each other. Your OTP could be alone standing at different ends of the room when they make eye contact. Maybe they hate each other but end up dancing together and find out afterwards it’s their sworn enemy but now there’s a hint of romance between them. Play around with the anonymity of masks and the romantic formality of a masquerade :)

Hi i have a short coldflash fic for a thing that's coming up tomorrow and was wondering if anyone was available to beta it? Please and thank you

posting up in case anyone can help!

[raylangivins]

I know. four of them are mine (the quantico fics). I would write femslash but I just don't know what to write

I would too if I wrote anything these days tbh. I hope there's more femslash as the show goes on but so many fandoms overlook femslash so often it can get annoying, especially since quantico has interesting and varied female characters. And idk this show is just really straight in general

coldestflash replied to your post:1k1h at xx:30

Can I sign up for this and explain the time thing please…What is xx:30?

Sure you can!

Seeing as we’re all from different time zones, the xx stands for hours. The 00 or 30 stands for minutes.

So, in my case, I’m starting this 1k1h at 08:30 :)
