#hartmon

[kitkatt0430]

if you don't mind 51 for coldflash, harrisco and hartmon?

51.) What’s a non verbal way they say I love you?

ColdFlash:

Barry is feeling down and suddenly oh no. Captain Cold is stealing from a jewelry store/museum/whatever. The Scarlet Speedster must surely stop him... sure there's a lot of verbal flirting involved, witty repartee and puns flying around. But it's the gesture itself. Barry knows Len's doing this to cheer him up and if that doesn't say I love you then no crime possibly could.

Meanwhile Barry has absolutely also stolen things to cheer Len up. It started with stealing Len's stuff and being rewarded like a cute puppy but it has evolved into them occasionally stealing stuff together. And Team Flash just goes 'I pretend I cannot see and it is not happening'.

Harrisco:

Harry really likes to brush Cisco's hair and then braid it for him. Especially once he let's it go past shoulder length. There's something really comforting about the whole experience for both of them and it's kind of a big deal in that it's Harry asking for something he wants and then being very gentle about it. And then Cisco trusting Harry with his hair which is... not something he really allows to someone he isn't in love with.

Hartmon:

Cisco likes to dress Hartley up in his t-shirts, something Hartley has accepted as gracefully as he can. It helps that the t-shirts are actually really comfy and soft and worn in and smell like Cisco. It eventually becomes Hartley outright stealing Cisco's clothes to wear when he wants to feel comforted/closer to Cisco which, of course, absolutely delights Cisco to no end.

Cisco eventually started stealing Hartley's clothes too. They might be more formal/less whimsical but they were warmer for winter and also soft and worn in and smell like Hartley, which was a bit like getting to have a hug from Hartley all day.

They both know it's something they do because they love each other and so when one of them is committing clothes theft the other feels loved just seeing this. But also knows that the other perhaps needs more feelings of love and support today too.

Their personalities could not be more different from each other which at first set them as rivals but time (travel) changed things between the two and they became friends. But do you like to see the two together romantically, prefer to see their relationship more platonically, or rather not see them together at all?

Tell me about your divorce headcanons?? 👀

ooh absolutely~ lol

there's definitely at least one universe where Cisco and Hartley are bitterly divorced exes who still have to work together

not quite divorce but divorce-adjacent a super tragic headcanon I have is that Harry was briefly separated from his wife, probably due to his temper or his infamous "work" persona that scared her and Jesse a bit, but he worked on himself and they worked things out shortly before her death

there are multiple universes where Eobard and Barry are divorced

Rachel Rathaway briefly considered divorcing Osgood after his irrational reaction to Hartley's coming out but ultimately she determined that Rathaway Industries was more important

Len is a divorcé (idk who his husband was but he just gives me that vibe lol)

When Cisco asked if he could stay over while his landlord repaired his window, it was a no-brainer for Eddie. They’re friends, and it’s not like it’d be the first time Cisco sleeps over at his and Hartley’s apartment. So, of course he said Cisco could stay as long as he wanted. Admittedly, it’s a little different since Hartley isn’t even here – Mercury labs had him go to Metropolis for some business deals —, but Eddie assumes the couple must have talked about it.

So, at least for the time being, Cisco came over with his laptop, guitar and most-prized nerd figurines that he doesn’t want to leave unsupervised, and moved into Hartley’s room.

And it works well. Hanging out with Cisco is, of course, fun. A bit weird, at first, because it’s not like they’ve spent much time one-on-one before, but once they got over that little awkwardness, it’s fine. They watch TV together, chat a little in the morning before heading out for work, text each other about what to eat for dinner. It’s actually pretty easy.

There’s something he doesn’t get, though. Because Cisco makes penis jokes like there’s no tomorrow, curses like a sailor and won’t make a secret out of his sex life – at least, the little  phone sex session he and Hartley had going on the other day was loud enough.

And yet, every Sunday for the past three weeks that he’s been staying over, Cisco would leave the house at 9 in the morning to head over to the district his parents live in, so he could attend church with his family.

As far as Eddie knows, Cisco doesn’t even like his family. Last week, he came back to Eddie’s and Hartley’s apartment fuming about his brother. 

But he doesn’t miss out on going to mass with them.

Eddie doesn’t get it.

"I could ruin you."

A little Hartmon drabble after the cut.

Hartley paced the floor of the small room. This would never work. This would only hurt...

"Cisco, really, we don't have to do this." Hartley stopped pacing and turned to face the other man, before quickly looking away. It felt like his face had just gotten hit with the full force of the sun, heat slipping in like a rushing high tide across his cheeks. So, his fiancé looked hot. What else was new? Still, he was flustered by the freshly pressed suit. The cufflinks of pure gold. The perfectly slicked-back hair. Oh god, they were really doing this.

"Hartley, don't worry about it. Really." There was a pause from Cisco that caused Hartley to glance back. "How do I look?"

Cisco was nervous, that was clear. As CEO of Ramon Industries, he had to appear confident and self-assured. And he was. Just...not in this moment. Neither of them were. This could be a make or break moment for Cisco's reputation. It scared Hartley. He knew what it was like to be stripped of your legacy and ostracized. He didn't want that for Cisco.

He walked over and gently cupped Cisco's face. There was a slight stinging in his eyes that he fought off the best he could. Still, one tear fell softly on his cheek. "I could ruin you." It barely came out as more than a whisper.

Cisco gave a weak smile and wiped the tear quickly away. "And I want you to do it."

There was a soft knock on the door that made them instinctively flinch apart. Cisco's assistant peered her head in the door. "Mr. Ramon, they're ready for you."

"Thank you." The door closed with a click as the assistant left. Both men let out a soft sigh.

"Come on." Cisco grabbed Hartley's hand and tugged him to the door. He took in a deep breath and let it out as an exaggerated sigh. "I'm ready to show the world who I am."

"I think you have already done that," Hartley mumbled as he turned Cisco to face him and planted a kiss to his forehead. Hartley's timid smile matched Cisco's. "I'm ready."

Cisco pushed the main door open, light suddenly blazing into the dark room. The cocky smile that he put on for the world took over his face. They walked into the auditorium, hand in hand as the cheers swelled.

Mr. Ramon was on display. And beside him, Hartley put on a smile. It was fake and he was rightfully scared. But he knew that things would be better than last time. After all, this time he had someone to stand beside.

Me in 2017: I can't stand Hartley/Cisco. I can't stand the way Hartley treats Cisco. I refuse to forgive that.

Me in 2023: If Hartley gets his shit together and stops being an asshole to Cisco this could be REAL interesting. Let them bond over their trauma with EoWells. Hartley understands EoWells turning on you in an instant the moment you become a threat to his plans. If they could start getting along they'd actually have a lot in common. Let them bond because Hartley would jump at the chance to further get back at Harrison, even if he initially resents working with Cisco to do so. The idea of Hartley protecting Cisco from EoWells cause he hates him more? There's a great enemies to friends to lovers angle that could be. Past me was just too stubborn to see it.

Hartley Rathaway with absolutely anyone for “Just sleep in my damn shirt.” please? <3

Gonna do some Hartmon for this one:

“Look, fuzzy pajamas might be comfortable, but it’s much more practical to pack something lighter when you plan to spend the night here.” Or more nights, but Hartley didn’t dare broach that topic just yet.

“Well, it’s either my fuzzy pajamas or something from your closet.” Cisco smirked. “And I know how protective you get about your clothes, you gremlin.”

Hartley threw a shirt at Cisco, which he caught with a startled laugh. “Just sleep in my damn shirt and shut up, Ramon.”

“Aww, with it on? Really?”

“You’re not getting anything more than that without buying me dinner first.”

Cisco laughed at that, and the sound was like music to Hartley’s ears.

prompt list

[hartmonfest]

[ID: A splotchy gradient of orange and green blended in places. The top center reads “Hartmonfest 2023”. Either side of the text is a circular picture for each character looking casual/happy. Hartley Rathaway is on the left and Cisco Ramon on the right. Below that is the hashtag #Hartmonfest2023 and a white rectangle with the prompts listed for each day which are also listed in the main body of the post below. /END ID]

Announcing the prompts for Hartmonfest 2023 since that’s coming up at the end of the month. The event will run for 4 days, from June 30th to July 3rd.

This is the last year we’ll be doing Hartmonfest, though we will be doing some more Finish Your WIP days later on in the year as well.

June 30th - Beach / Season 9 AU

July 1st - Prompt amnesty / wedding

July 2nd - “I thought you were supposed to call me.”

July 3rd - Regrets / Finish Your WIP day

Prompt amnesty means you can create for any of our past prompts, and Finish Your WIP means you can post any Works In Progress you can finish in time for the event.

The event is open to any type of Hartmon fanwork - including friendship, pre-ship or polyam ships including both of them. There’s no sign-up and no obligations with this event, simply post as much as you want, whether that’s for 1 day, all days, or anywhere in between. If you can’t post an item on the day for the prompt that’s no problem, we’ll happily reblog anything for the prompts no matter when you post – the more Hartmon content the better.

Tags to use for the event are #hartmonfest and #Hartmonfest2023 in the first five tags, as well as @hartmonfest in the post so we (hopefully) get notified. You can use ‘Submit a post’ or message us links to the fanwork instead if you prefer. The Ao3 collection name is ‘HartmonFest2023‘ and you can submit a new work to the collection here.

If you have any questions about the event do ask, and if you’re happy to, please reblog/share this post so it gets seen far and wide. :)

the only good outcome of this would be the camera panning over to show cisco standing in the doorway and they do a running jump “the notebook” style kiss and then immediately get in a slap fight

GCAU Interlude - Post-Series

summary: Cisco diagnoses Hartley

pairings: Cisco Ramon/Hartley Rathaway

warnings: -

notes: hashtag AuDHD ;)

–———–———

“Hey, where are you going?” Hartley wants to know, looking up from his book. He looks at Cisco with wide eyes, clearly confused rather than curious.

Cisco supposes he gets it – until now they had been chilling on the couch together, each of them reading their own book – or comic, in his case – but enjoying each other’s company. But there’s just been something that’s been driving him up the wall. So Cisco’s just gotten up from the couch, meaning to leave the room. Only that Hartley stopped him before he could take a single step.

“I’m– Your stimming was kinda distracting me, so I’m gonna go into the bedroom,” Cisco says, pointing towards it before gesturing at Hartley. “Which is fine! Don’t stop on my account! Whatever helps you concentrate, dude.”

Automatically, Hartley scrunches up his face like he always does when Cisco calls him “dude”. It’s fine when Eddie or Ronnie do it, but he basically recoils when Cisco does it. Because, as Hartley put it so delicately after having spent a day too many with Wally (who is also welcome to call him “dude”, by the way) it “gives him the ick”. Something about the word being reserved for friends rather than boyfriends. Hartley has a knack for language-things like that, but Cisco’s known that, of course.

But instead of focusing on that, a second later the annoyance vanishes from Hartley’s face and makes way for confusion again. “My what?” He asks.

Looking back, I'm not sure I've ever done a post for this day, which amuses me given how many banners I've made for it. Anyhow, I've been unexpectedly productive with writing this week. Finished one ficlet, got another 6.2k fic in editing stages, and then I wrote 1.8k fic today as well. I don't know where all the writing motivation came from all of a sudden but it's nice to get things done after a drought. So, it's time to share a little bit of the latest ficlet.

The Flash - "Double Take" (Hartmon)

And then Cisco cut his hair. Which was just about the last thing Hartley expected him to do under normal circumstances, because Cisco had made it clear on many occasions when people suggested he change stuff up that the hair was not to be touched. Except, metas of the week didn't care what they ruined in pursuit of their goals, and Cisco's hair was the latest casualty.

Lieutenant (Cisco's POV Scene)

*Spoilers for Lieutenant

Cisco's POV after Chapter 11

Team Flash needs Pied Piper, but I don’t need Hartley Rathaway.

Cisco collapsed into bed. He was drained, exhausted, but sleep wouldn’t come. His novelty Star Wars alarm clock showed 3:22 a.m. in bright red light. His mind raced as he stared up at the ceiling. It had been the longest day in the history of days. They lost Barry in the Speed Force, Jesse fell into a coma, Hartley’s doppelganger outed Hartley as a spy, Barry came back, there was a zombie somewhere in there, and Hartley fucking Rathaway nearly got himself killed saving Caitlin.

Cisco turned over with a huff. This was a mistake as the right side of his bed smelled like Hartley. It was hard to believe he’d woken next to Hartley happily only the day before. Before he’d known Hartley was a traitor. Before that dick nearly got himself murdered by Zoom or one of his cronies.

Cisco wracked his brain, trying to think of a moment he’d missed, a moment when Hartley had been insincere the last few months. He came up blank. Hartley had put on quite a show. There wasn’t a single time in his memory Cisco could recall any hint of deviance. Maybe what Hartley had said was true. Maybe he didn’t want to spy for Zoom, and he had only done it because Zoom was threatening his family.

This thought made something twist inside Cisco. He’d done the same thing, hadn’t he? He’d given up Barry as the Flash to save his brother. Could he really hold Hartley to some higher standard? But it wasn’t about information with Zoom. It was about power. Cisco’s power. He’d used Hartley to goad along Cisco’s powers, and neither of them could have predicted that. Who would have ever known Hartley was the key to Cisco being confident enough to use his powers unless they had seen it happen before? 

Cisco felt a surge of annoyance and flung the extra pillow off of the bed. The subtle smell of Hartley’s hair gel was gone. He ached for it back but didn’t move to retrieve it. They hadn’t been together that long. He couldn’t truly be this attached, could he? He would be fine without Hartley. Wouldn’t he?

When he really thought about it, he wasn’t sure he wanted to be broken up with Hartley. He wasn’t sure that’s what he really needed. Was what Hartley did really so unacceptable? Was it unforgivable? Cisco didn’t think so, but he wasn’t sure he could trust Hartley again. 

He could eventually get past the betrayal with Zoom. They’d done it so many times before. None of them blamed Harry for trying to steal Barry’s speed anymore. They’d understood because he was protecting his daughter. But going to save Caitlin from a building full of Zoom’s metahumans. Cisco couldn’t imagine how he’d done it. And how fucking stupid was that? Cisco turned again with sharp, angry motions.

If Hartley had told him he was going to CCPD, Cisco would have tried to talk him out of it, angry or not. If he couldn’t have, he would have been on comms with him, made him another weapon–something! Hartley didn’t even give him the chance. He just charged ahead like he wanted one of those metas to kill him. Another ache pressed into his chest.

Cisco couldn’t be with someone who would run out and get themselves killed at the first sign of trouble in their relationship. If Hartley was going to be reckless and stupid, then he was going to have to be that way without Cisco. Tears welled in Cisco’s eyes, dripping onto the pillow under his head. After a while, he turned and reached over to grab the pillow off the floor. He clutched it to his chest, breathing in the faint scent. Finally, he fell asleep.
