Why was he even here? This was so stupid. He knew that if any of the others knew where he'd gone, they would probably throttle him for being so reckless. Except maybe Vax. Apparently, Vax did reckless stuff all the time. And Percy. He was lord of Whitestone and also poor choices. And really, Barry did dumb shit every five minutes. And Harry wasn't actually much better, however much he tried to pretend. And Cisco and Caitlin would throttle him. Affectionately. While the rest of his idiots were hypocritical.
"I told Cisco I loved him," he said, blurting out the words in much the same manner as he'd blurted out his feelings to Cisco. "And then I ran away and had a panic attack before he could say anything. Because the last time I told someone that, it ended poorly. And by someone I mean you, and by ended poorly I mean I died."
