I was just wrapping my head around this city being surrounded by dinosaurs and how it all seems like a bad case of deja vu..but now people are being magically made to tell the truth? What is this bullshit? God, I miss my life before time travel. It was shitty, but it made sense.

Ashes is fine. When you disappeared I took it in. Had a cat already, anyway. And Ray couldn't take it, what with the allergies.

I say it because it's probably true. I don't want to be dead. I don't think you or anyone on the team wants me dead either. Doesn't mean it wouldn't be easier if I wasn't here. You could get through mourning. Figure out whatever it is you need to figure out with Palmer. But I'm here so it is what it is. Doesn't look like I'm going anywhere soon either.

We had this conversation before about..feelings. And love. The whole thing. I don't think we'd have lasted as long as partners if there wasn't more than just us tolerating each other between us. But I didn't want to bring it up again so soon if it was going to complicate things for you. Because it's more than just you and me now. It's you and me. And you and Palmer. And me and..The Flash. Which I'm guessing you don't remember either?

You saying it and believing it, doesn't make it true. But I get the feeling. I've had it most of my life. Ever since the fire..the first one.

You don't think I ever thought how it should have been me who died in that fire and not my family? How they could have done so much more with their lives than I ever could? I dealt with that feeling for years. Until one day I met this kid who never stopped fighting, not even when he was out sized and out numbered, and I thought to myself, if this little punk can keep his chin up against the odds, I sure as hell can too. Eventually that feeling went away.

Things between us have always been complicated, Len. But there's still always been an us. I don't think I know how to do things any other way. Which, yeah..makes what Ray said happened between me and him confusing because the longer I'm here, the more I remember, and the more I remember, the more I realize that the feelings he has..or had, aren't completely onesided. And..

Hold up...did you just say you and the Flash? As in the Flash who you were obsessed with for months until you pulled me out of hiding just to spend another couple of months trying to take him down? That Flash?

I hate it when you get all sentimental. It makes me affectionate. Except I don't actually hate it and I think you know that even if I wasn't being compelled to write the truth.

Why are we even pouring over this? I still like having you around. You still like having me around. We've been through too much shit to pretend that's probably not always going to be true. I'm going to be here as whatever you need me to be. Because at the end of the day you're still my partner, Mick. In crime. In debauchery. In pseudo-heroism. And whatever else. I just want you to be happy and you can decide how I fit into that. I think we've both earned that. Give yourself some time to remember and get comfortable with this place.

Me and the Flash. That Flash. I've been here s lot longer than you or Palmer. Going in a year now? I'm losing track. But we've both seen people come and go and we were there for each other when we needed to be. His name's Barry, by the way. Barry Allen. He had a girlfriend too. Iris. I was fine with that and he was fine with you. It sounds more complicated than it actually is. And for the record I didn't just pull you out of hiding for the job. I missed you and didn't know how to apologize so I thought that shiny new toy and a super hero to play with would be a good start. It just turns out that super hero was more fun to play with than I thought.
