Re: [Capital: Gwen & Flash]
Flash was a little surprised by the kiss, but he knew what it meant. Gwen wasn't going to make him jump through a bunch of hoops or push him away for how he acted the last month and that had to count for something. Flash didn't think he deserved her kindness, but maybe she couldn't help it. If he was in her shoes, he'd probably just try to make her feel better than try to pull things apart.
"Oh, fuck." Flash sputtered at the lyrics and laughed. "You're so corny." He finished off the beer, threw both of their cups away and took her hand again. "Someone else giving you the name isn't a bad idea. Stop enough petty crime and they'll write blog posts about you." Cause who the fuck read newspapers anymore? "You don't want a terrifying codename, anyway. Reaper and I only get to do the really fucked up missions. You could actually help some old lady across the street."
He moved his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close again in a sloppy hug. "Thanks for taking me along, even if you're about to be some big time hero. Soon you won't need me around to take a rolling car to the face for you."
