anyway, thanks to that moment in the sound and the fury where barry is standing around watching with blank frustration like "god i wish i'd taken a language in high school" while hartley verbally eviscerates both cisco and eowells in multiple languages, i now headcanon that len speaks a second language, mostly cos barry would find it really annoying

#my headcanons #right now im leaning towards spanish. michael schofield had a hispanic/spanish-speaking cellmate in prison break right?#and who doesnt love a cheeky prison break ref in a coldflash fic #so yeah len picked up spanish in prison. he had the time. im not saying he's like fluent necessarily but he can get by #this gives me a fun chance to have him interact with cisco in spanish while barry is clueless. which is fun. i enjoy their dynamic #even more bonus points if lisa ALSO speaks some spanish because then i can have cisco speak to her in spanish #he thinks she doesn't understand so he says all these romantic things he'd never be bold enough to say normally #and then of course you get the trope where at a pivotal moment lisa turns and answers in spanish and it turns out she knew #what he was saying all along...#it's a classic <3 #anyways im obsessed with this now #the bit gets even funnier if everyone but barry speaks at least some spanish. like iris took it in high school so len and cisco are talking #while barry is like ????? and then iris joins in. still in spanish. and barry's like oh come on!! you too?#so they all get to bully him and he has no idea what they're saying <3
