His “Thawne” side is starting to show lol. Wish this show would explore more of his bloodline. Like did Barry/JL ever question his mother’s bloodline? Or who his mom is?

But like not that anyone present day would know. He babysits his own dad and aunt which is really trippy; they’re toddlers so it’ll be awhile till Don meets Meloni.

Bart forcing the Legion to tell him everything by leveraging his position was spectacular. I really enjoy how Bart is portrayed in Young Justice as goofy and lighthearted but also deceptively clever and insanely smart. Not to mention capable. The kid has built two time machines now out of scrap metal and spare parts, lied to the entire Justice League and got away with it, saved the world and he's not even 19 yet.

I was worried that they would have Bart naively build a time machine for random people he didn't know without checking their story but that fear was unfounded. He knew that they needed him to power the Cosmic Treadmill and he used that to his advantage.

"Oh please. I'm not even from this timeline. I'm a wild card, yo! A free radical. That's why you came to me. So spill. Or we're done."

^ that's the face of someone who has the upper hand and knows it

Hey guys! Call me Eli :)

Fun fact: someone mistaked my name for “Eli” at a restaurant and I thought it funny

I’m a Christian, smol 5’2” hiker, and easily distracted by plants. I’m living in the big city life, but my heart yearns for the small mountain backpacking life. Give me sunrises and sunsets and the beauty of God’s glory from winter snow-capped mountains to endless summer flower fields and back.

Sometimes you do things in life that doesn't make sense for the fun of it.

Wally and Bart have the most insanely funny relationship, because normally Wally is so unnecessarily mean to Bart but when Inertia kills Bart he comes up with the most horrible verging on evil punishment he can, and I think it’s INSANE

He’s like the wire monkey experiment but instead of wire it’s slime.

Hasn’t anyone ever felt that way about you?

one of the things that fascinate me about thawne: yes, he CAN be normal with kids! surprisingly normal!

((not at all times, though. his mental illness still spills through and as usual he, in trying to manipulate or hurt others, spits out at them the exact stuff that would hurt him (or have in his childhood/barry's rejection interpretation) the most in the first place lmao))

but at the same time. his like second instinct when doing his bullshit is FUCK THEM (as) KIDS

(and, well. whatever this classifies as)

Just... spinning things in my mind that Bart's family is so unavailable to him and his friends spent more time with his family in the future than he did. Carol spent more time with his mother than he ever got, and likely knows her far better than he ever will. And Kon spent more time with The Legion, and thus Jenni, than Bart did and probably knows Jenni more than him. 🙃

Saw this meme and just had to redraw it as Thad and Match. Just imagine if the writers had given Match his original personality during Titans East, or just them meeting up again. These two would have tension. (Honestly, ESPECIALLY post Match's Suicide Squad run. There would be hero/villain tension or just tension caused by meeting up your best friend and realizing how much they've changed, how things have CHANGED between you two, and dealing with all of that.)

Sometimes I think about Thawne admitting he has done some heinous stuff to Barry that Barry doesn't even know and I'm like ok did you fuck him? Did you stick your dick in this poor sod at some point and Barry doesn't even realize it cause Thawne's faster than him and his fast healing is making him think his body ache feels good? Thawne was saying shit about turning back time to adopt Barry and groom him like he got my head running shamelessly saying his kink to his crush's face like that hmmm

Okay I KNOW this ask is not serious but I have the chance to talk about my beautiful little meow meow and I will take it, so I will split my answer in two, the unserious answer and the serious answer.

The unserious answer is that I love it about Eobard that he's so open about what he likes. He went (paraphrased) "Hey did you know I was in love with your uncle :D" at Wally one time, and then proceeded to beat the shit out of him. He used to write in his diary about how alone he was and how just thinking about Barry made him feel better. Gayass nerd dweeb he had a crush on Barry since he was a damn child. We could just go on and assume he did stick his dick in there (maybe when Barry hadn't still been hit by lightning), because at this point I wouldn't be surprised (I do believe he used to touch and hold Barry at superspeed back then but that's just me we don't really have canon confirmation of this YET! YET!!! ahem.)

The serious answer is that he's just playing. Eobard is good at saying things that will rile people up, but it doesn't always work on Barry (because Barry knows him), and so he will say a bunch of shit in the attempt to get a reaction. When he says that he did unspekable things that make killing Nora pale in comparison, when he says that he's going to kill Iris (or any other "flashfamily" member), when he says that he'll go back in time and do this and that, adopt Barry (I really fucking loved that one btw), whatever, he's just provoking. He's trying to make Barry mad basically.

I'm saying this because he does not do any of what he says even if he could, at any given time. He can move through time easily, and he does it constantly. He says himself in Finish Line that this is not his first rodeo in this timeline, and we have the confirmation that during the events of Lightning Strikes Twice there are two Eobards around.

Look at this:

This is the beginning of Lightning Strikes Twice. As you can see Eobard is there spying on people, but the thing is that we also know FOR SURE that he is currently locked up in a cell, looking like this:

(the person speaking is August btw)

So yeah, he's in two places at the same time, running around and watching things unfold, and also tied up to that freaky bondage contraption from which Barry will break him out lol.

Also it's worth noting that he's so fast he runs laps around Wally and can go entirely unseen by him, and Wally calls himself the fastest man who ever lived. His powers make it so he can come in and out of the timestream and run through it without any kind of external aid - he does it while being "trapped" in Paradox' dimension, and is precise enough when he interacts with the timestream to not cause any kind of ripple effect (like again when he saved Chris in Flash Age).

If he wanted to hurt Barry like he says he does, he could. If he actually wanted to do any of the shit he brags about he'd just do it without threatening Barry about it. He's just playing, trying to get a reaction out of his crush, and sometimes it works! Sometimes Barry actually gets worked up. But in fairness, most of the time Barry's reaction is 😒🙄 because all of what I just said, Barry knows too lol.

(indeed Barry is also very scared that Eobard might actually hurt the people he loves, because he knows that Eo could and is aware of how easily he would do it. Not many people can defend from a speedster especially if they don't know he's coming. And no one can defend against this yellow menace of a banana man altering the timeline however the fuck he prefers. Luckily for everyone involved, he's not interested in altering the timeline any more than he already did, at least for now)

thank you for reading

i still haven't recovered from the fact that meloni thawne hasn't appeared in 20 years. not only that but most of her appearances in the wiki are either flashbacks or cameos

analysing impulse lore i understand why some characters stopped showing up - even more when you remember the guy was in comic limbo till 2018. it makes sense that authors don't include barts civilian friends and after the fastest man alive mess (and personality rewrite) i'd rather inertia stay dead

but meloni is bart's mother! how come she appears less than 20 times? the last of which in 2004?? the flash series loves to go on and on about family. it shows. bart allen has returned, but not his mother
