Worth it (AO3)

Word count: 855

Summary: "So they parted ways with her and all—Team Flash, Leonard Snart, and Mick Rory, who were taking a break from their missions on the Waverider—gathered at STAR Labs to celebrate, catch up, and eat some food."

For @thevoiceofdragons, who wanted "Anything with that and Barry appreciating the heck out of [Mick's cooking] skills. (a la "I could kiss the cook"/"I would put out for this, real talk" etc)"

Thank you @wonderingtheblue for beta reading!! <3

Mission accomplished. Another week, another meta stopped. Luckily, this time that didn’t involve sending anyone to Iron Heights. Their wayward meta was just a woman that didn’t realize she had powers. They helped her learn control and even gave her a bracelet that could neutralize her powers if she decided she didn’t want them, just like Caitlin used before she got control over Killer Frost.

The meta couldn’t be persuaded to become a hero, but Barry wasn’t too surprised. What else could he expect from someone that was friends with Captain Cold and Heatwave.

She was a prostitute that they had realized needed help and had brought to Team Flash’s attention. Once they’d helped her with her powers, she had rejected any other help—to become a hero or to help her find a new job. She was happy with the life she had and didn't want their help changing it.

So they parted ways with her and all—Team Flash, Leonard Snart, and Mick Rory, who were taking a break from their missions on the Waverider—gathered at STAR Labs to celebrate, catch up, and eat some food.

As Barry finished piling two plates high with food from the buffet spread out for them and walked over to join the others, he realized that Cisco was still fixated on the woman they’d helped today and her chosen profession.

“I’m just saying,” Cisco said as Barry took a seat, “that I’d be really expensive. It’d take a lot of money for someone to buy this for a night.” He gestured to himself as though it were obvious just from looking at him that he was an expensive prize. “Or some really rare Star Trek collectibles,” Cisco added after a pause.

Barry laughed along with the others and was about to comment before he got distracted by the delicious food he’d just taken a bite of. He’d never tasted anything this good, and even though he’d just started, he was tempted to go grab one of the trays of food before the others could grab more. Did speedsters get dibs on the majority of the post-mission food? They should. He needed it more than the others. And seriously, it was melt in your mouth, finger licking, sell your soul, incredibly good.

Barry moaned around his mouthful, and after he swallowed, without thinking, said, “Forget collectibles. You could buy me with this food. It’s that good.” As soon as he was done speaking, he took another bite. It was just as good as the first.

“Is that so, Barry?” Snart said, and the way he drawled his name made Barry finally look up from his plate to see the amused smirk playing across the man’s face.

Not even a little ashamed, Barry said, “If I got this food every day, I’d put out every night.” The food was incredible. If Cisco could hypothetically sleep with someone for Star Trek merch, he could for food.

“Uhh Barry—“ Caitlin hesitantly tried to get his attention. She’d been one of the ones laughing at Cisco’s comment, was she really against him saying something similar about food?

Before Caitlin could continue or Barry could spare too long on that train of thought, Mick’s deep voice interrupted. “Deal, Red.”

“Uh what?” Barry asked, barely taking the time to stop chewing long enough to try and figure out what Mick was talking about.

“Mick’s the chef, kid,” Snart said, smirk growing into a full smile as he looked like he was trying not to laugh.

“Um well, it’s really good?” Barry asked more than said to the room before looking directly at Mick. “Thanks for cooking, Mick.” This was awkward. Was it awkward? Was he the only one that thought it was awkward? How was he supposed to know that the food had been made by the former criminal and not brought in from some 5-star restaurant that cost more than Barry’s paycheck. Clearly, Mick should have been a chef. He probably would have made more than he did with his heists.

“Come over to mine tomorrow night and I’ll cook for you again,” Mick interrupted Barry’s thoughts again, and was he seriously propositioning him? Barry had been joking…mostly.

At a loss for words, Barry looked around at the others. There were varying degrees of amusement, embarrassment, and incredulity in the faces of his friends and teammates. Barry was about to laugh the whole thing off when he took another bite and remembered exactly why he had made the claim in the first place. The food was incredible.

Turning to Cisco, Barry whispered—as though the others couldn’t hear him—“If I agree, are you all going to judge me?”

That seemed to be Cisco’s breaking point as he started laughing in earnest. “Definitely,” he said. “All the judgement, dude.”

Barry looked around again, at Iris and Snart’s amused faces, Caitlin’s facepalm, and Cisco and Wally’s outright laughter—thankfully Joe had gone back to the precinct—before turning to Mick, who looked like a combination of amused and hopeful.

Well, if he was serious…

Barry shrugged and said, “Worth it. Deal, Mick.”

Head cannon meme: Yanagi (:

2-4 songs that are probably on their iPod Yanagi is a nerd, so and likes hella classical music to help him study better (since instrumental music is shown to improve concentration). He has a lot of gagaku music like Haru no Umi, Izumi and Ku-on, but he also has some western classical music like Nocturne and Moonlight Sonata because of Yukimura’s influence and recommendations. 

the one place they sometimes end up falling asleep — where they’re not supposed to He’s not the sort to fall asleep in class or the library, but sometimes, on nights where he didn’t sleep very much, he’ll take a surreptitious nap during the School Council meetings the next day, while pretending to take notes. 

the game they’d destroy everyone else at Shogi - and it endlessly frustrates Sanada. Also, Akaya thinks it’s unfair that Yanagi beat his high score on Crossy Roads on his first try :|

the emoticon they’d use most often Sanada uses enough emoticons for all of troika, but occasionally Yanagi uses :| to remind Yukimura to do his homework, and :| at Sanada’s short and unhelpful messages. 

what they act like when they haven’t had enough sleepHe tries to not be more grumpy, but he thinks he is 3.7% more irritable, anyway. And he’s also less likely to be able to do mental math correctly, so he rounds his decimals to one decimal place, not two, like usual. 

their preferred hot beverage on really cold nights. or mornings. or wheneverGreen tea. Always. Matcha is the drink for him, regardless of when it is. Marui doesn’t understand how he drinks piping hot matcha when it’s like 40C outside, but he does it anyway. 

how they like to comfort/care for themselves when they’re in a slumpHe doesn’t Once pushed to do something about his funk by his friends, he’ll usually take a relaxing book by Soseki or Murakami and sit back and stop thinking about his world for as long as he can. He also eats, because that’s the thing he usually forgets or neglects when he’s stressed or depressed. 

what they wanted to be when they grew upHe’s not really sure, because he’s pretty good at everything, but he does want to have a stable and successful job that will make sure that his sister and mother don’t have to worry about money anymore. Sometimes, when the world is especially hateful, he thinks about being a mars colonist or something, but decides against it, eventually. 

their favorite kind of weatherRainy days. He loves rain and thunder and the sound of water against the pavements. Yukimura calls him a bad-luck charm because whenever he wishes for rain, it usually comes, despite the teru-teru-bozu that Yukimura puts out. 

thoughts on their singing voice (decent? terrible? soprano? alto?)I see him as having a really average voice, bit husky and fairly low-pitched. He doesn’t really train it that much, so his range is pretty weak, but when they go to karaoke, he’s good enough. Nothing like Yukimura, Sanada and Marui, but not bad either 

how/what they like to draw or doodleHis art is dreadful, but he draws stick figures of himself glaring at his friends occasionally, when he gives them study notes. He also likes to draw nyanko-sensei when people do well on things. 

SUPER COOL CHARACTER HEADCANONS MEME

This blog is perfect~! I'm laughing way too much at all of your posts.

im glad i can make you laugh!! that what i set out to do~

thevoiceofdragons replied to your post “games i want to talk about more golden sun the world ends with you...”

Ahhh talk to me about Hatoful Boyfriend. And those other two I haven't heard of? Oo, tell me about those, too, if you'd like~

whos your favorite bird?

and oh dear, ill try to introduce them a little.

so golden sun is a pretty old gba game from 2001. it has a fantasy setting, and you play a group of kids saving the world. its pretty standard - turn-based battle, every character has powers corresponding to an element etc. but what makes it so interesting is that everything is strongly connected to mythology, youll find summons of gods from several different cultures. and i just love the characters, theyre very endearing. even more so in the sequel, you play as the antagonists of the first game and this is probably my favorite game of all time. theres also a third one, for ds, where you play as the children of the protagonists of the first two games, but this just doesnt have the same... kind of retro feel to it. besides its characters, its also pretty strong on the music side - everything is very very easy to memorize and not annoying. keeping in mind its a gba game, though. oh, also the way you move through dungeons is very unique, as i said your characters have special elemental abilities, and youll use them on the field to move boulders and freeze things and stuff to get through puzzles to advance!

the world ends with you is a square enix game for the ds, and this is a VERY unique one. its set in shibuya and thats what you get. FASHION. MUSIC. POP-CULTURE REFERENCES. youll come out as a fashion-maniac, no matter what you do. the battles are very very unique, you use both screens, you need to press buttons and do several different motions on the touch screen aaaall at the same time. its pretty hard until you get used to it but its SO MUCH FUN, i can promise that. also, the characters. theyre lovely. they have depth. theres one that makes math puns all the time. god i love twewy. the downside is that you can basically not buy it anymore, its so so so hard to find at a reasonable price.

thevoiceofdragons replied to your post “Picking a shoujo manga like Ao Haru Ride to read to calm me down was a...”

Oh is that manga good??

I enjoyed it. I've seen all of the anime and it follows pretty closely to the manga, actually. With this manga, I can guarantee really awkward times where more than one person likes the same person and it goes back and forth throughout the chapters. I liked the characters in this one quite a bit, too. I'd say it's good, but not for everyone.

Bereft Soldier (AO3)

FlashWave Week Day Five: Supernatural AU

For the supernatural au prompt for flashwave week, I decided to do an au of the CW show Supernatural. Barry is an angel (sort of in Cas's role) and Mick is a demon (in a similar role to Crowley, but more trustworthy). This is the first in a series that will show parts of their unlikely friendship.

Thank you to @wonderingtheblue for beta reading for me and @thevoiceofdragons for bringing up the idea of doing an au based on the show. And thank you both for being awesome and supportive! <3

It’s not that Barry meant to run into anyone. He wasn’t looking for company or to hide. He just had to get away. He had to be alone.

That wouldn't be a problem anymore, would it? It wasn’t like he could go back there, the place where he should belong, not after what he found out.

Heaven was supposed to be home. He was an angel, a soldier. He knew his place there and he only needed to worry about following orders. But what if those orders were wrong?

“What the hell?” a deep voice growled behind him.

Barry made no other reaction than closing his eyes. He should have known.

The park was a place where he often came to think, a place where he could enjoy the quiet and watch humanity. He didn’t need to worry about being an angel there. Maybe it was the same for Mick. Maybe that was why the demon sometimes joined him in watching the people walk through the park.

“What the hell are your brothers and sisters doing that Leonard Snart of all humans thinks there’s no chance at stopping the apocalypse?” Mick spoke again from behind him.

“What?” Barry asked, turning. He knew there was a problem, but he hadn’t realized the humans knew it too.

“He just tried to make a deal with me. Wants to trade his soul to make his sister Lucifer-proof,” Mick growled, stalking closer to Barry. “His words, not mine. He thinks I can make her an unusable vessel for angels.”

“You can,” Barry said, no judgement or condemnation in his tone. “You didn’t, did you?”

“Of course not! With all of the attention he’s gotten from the angels lately? Even I can tell that he has a bigger part to play in all this then becoming a punching bag in hell.”

Barry nodded, something in him relaxing at the words. He knew the Snarts had occasionally teamed up with Mick when working some of their cases, but he hadn’t realized that the partnership ran deep enough for the demon to pass on a soul so willingly offered.

“He’s Michael’s sword, Mick.” He shouldn't be telling the demon this, but maybe doing the opposite of what’s expected of him is exactly what he should be doing.

“Shit. Seriously?” Mick asked, but Barry only nodded. What more could he say? The Snarts were destined to play a central role in the apocalypse.

Mick seemed to shrink in size as his shock dimmed some of his anger, but he was still upset enough to growl, “So what the hell are the angels doing to keep the seals from breaking?”

“Nothing,” Barry said, and it took effort not to betray any emotion with his voice.

“Nothing?” Mick asked, incredulous, disbelieving, angry, and only half of the turmoil Barry was feeling inside.

Barry finally turned to look at his unlikely friend. “They want the seals to break, they want Lucifer free. They want Michael to wield his sword. Mick, they want the apocalypse to play out. They want my brothers to fight.”

It was awful. Horrible. True. And it broke something in Barry to admit it out loud.

“What the fuck, Barry?”

Barry closed his eyes at the nickname. Mick was the only one that ever called him that. He’d rather taken to the name, but his siblings only ever called him Bartholomew, even the few times he’d asked them to use the shortened version. It always felt…odd to hear the name from the demon’s lips. Warm somehow.

He debated keeping his eyes closed—it would be easier to not have to face Mick—but he needed the other to understand. His brothers and sisters couldn't really be blamed, could they? Maybe.

“Heaven is full of soldiers,” Barry said, looking Mick in the eye. “We follow orders, we do what we’re told, we don’t need to think. Father is…” Barry swallowed. It still hurt to admit that God left them all. “With Father gone, there are no more orders. No one knows what to do. But there is one script left to play out.”

“The apocalypse,” Mick said, face blank but voice angry.

“Yes,” Barry said. “Michael and Lucifer were always meant to fight, and the Snarts—with their absent father, their close bond, and Lisa leaving the family for a time to pursue ice skating against her father’s wishes—are the perfect vessels.”

“So, what?” Mick asked gruffly. “They’re going to sacrifice half of humanity just so they have something to do?”

Barry closed his eyes again and turned away, as if he could turn from the truth as easily as he could Mick. They were all so lost in heaven. So lost without their father. Alone in a world that he created. Alone with no purpose, so they tried to find one.

But now Barry had a purpose—stopping them—but he was still alone. No heaven, no siblings, no help.

Mick’s warm hand landed on his shoulder and spun him back around. “And what are you going to do?”

What could he do? Was there anything to do?

“If I…” Barry started off quietly but gained strength as he continued. “If I could find Father—”

“Your father’s gone,” Mick bit out, the words as harsh as if he’d slapped Barry in the face. “Don’t rely on him. What are you going to do?”

“I…” What could he do? He was one angel against heaven’s army.

“Hey,” Mick said, his tone rougher than the hand that slid down his arm to land on Barry’s own. “You’re not alone. What are we going to do?”

Barry turned his hand and gripped Mick’s like his life depended on it. Like the world depended on it because it just might. His throat felt tight and his eyes warm. It was a new feeling. He didn’t like it.

It wasn’t nearly as comforting as Mick’s hand in his.

“We’re going to stop them,” Barry said, looking up from their entwined hands to look Mick in the eye.

Mick smiled, a fire in his eyes that reflected the hell fire he came from. It was manic and should have been unsettling, but Barry couldn’t deny that he loved it.

“Sounds like a plan, Barry.”
