Who:Cisco and Lydia
What:random stuff
When:Today
Where:their place


Cisco was pulling through the darkness that had consumed his entire being for the last week or so. It'd been a rough one. So many things had hit him all at once that he'd basically shut down and refused to human. Today was the first day he was able to human without the alarm. He even ditched his sweat pants he'd been living in for the last week. He wasn't quite back to work yet, but soon. He was aiming for the end of the week. He could see a light at the end of his miserable week. Dick's disappearance felt like someone had kicked the air out of his lungs. He wasn't able to do anything about it unlike with Barry and the speed force. Dick had just told him, he was stuck with him and then the rug was harshly yanked out from under his feet.

He'd even showered. Cisco managed to make a solid attempt of looking like a human again instead of an exhausted and sad shell of one that he'd been the last week. Dark hair was tied back as he lurked in the kitchen for a moment and peered into the fridge. He hadn't been too good with eating lately, though he was eating healthier things just the act of eating was exhausting to him. It still seemed like a daunting task. Lydia was coming home soon though, and he wanted to do something for her. Unure of how hungry she'd be, he ended up making a salad out of what was left in the fridge vegetable wise and prepared it with a bit of Latino flare. A chicken salad with cilantro and lime. A summery type of flavor for the end of it. Or what he hoped was the end, Cisco liked winter. Hoodies and hot drinks were his wheel house. Summer, not so much.

"Yea. We thought I was psychic for a while. Kept finding dead bodies..." It had been new for all of them, too. Took their English teacher to figure out what she really was. "Yea, sort of. It runs in my family. Not really a myth though, am I?" She gave him a wry smile.

She nodded along with his assessment, though she didn't have personal experience with that. She hadn't hidden her intelligence before to avoid bullies, but she knew that had been a risk. "I could have graduated junior year, but I didn't want to leave everyone behind. So now I'm graduating college in two years instead."

"That's creepy. I mean for you it had to be creepy." Not that she was creepy, for anyone finding a dead body wasn't a fun thing. "No I guess not. That's...kinda cool really. I mean it must have been hard, but...how many people get to say something like 'Yeah well I'm the harbinger of death'"


"I wanted to get out as soon as possible, I was handed a full ride to an IVY league school so I took it. College was way better. Nobody mocked you for being smart. Nobody cornered you." He shrugged a little. "I'd stay there as long as I could, but that's just me." It was actually fun for him. He got to experience a world of people who actually put intelligence first. It was something he hadn't experienced up until then.

"Not my favorite moments from the last few years," she agreed. Especially before they knew why. Well, and then after they knew and she was treated like some kind of dead body detector... "Me, my grandmother, Meredith," that one stung, "Lenore. Jordan, kind of... But not all of those people are still alive." Yea, that wasn't the spirit in which he'd said the question, but why not answer him if she could? "I'm pretty sure I'm the only one here, though."

"Full ride, hm? Yea, I'd have taken that too. I plan to get my Ph.D after this, so I won't be getting out too quickly. Though I'm not sure I will here. I try not to think about that."

"I didn't have powers until a few years ago." As far as he was aware anyway. They'd all come from a project he'd ironically helped to create. "That's kind of incredible." He grinned, he'd never met anyone like that. Weirdest thing he could say he met was a Egyptian High Priestess. So okay maybe neither of them had normal lives. It made the whole roommate thing easier anyway. He didn't have to try to hide his powers and neither did she.

"Yeah, there was an amazing scientist who took interest in me..became my mentor and convinced both schools to let me graduate and go to college." Wells had betrayed them, but he'd still been Cisco's mentor, it was hard to just hate someone after they literally changed his entire life course. "Why not?"

"Me either. That I knew of." It would have happened later, but then Peter had to ... be Peter. But Cisco probably didn't want to hear about her running around naked in the woods. "Did something happen to you to cause it?" She refrained from attaching some kind of radiation to the questionand was pretty proud of herself for doing so.

"Wow. He must have really seen a lot of potential in you, that's great." She kind of hoped to find someone like that at MIT, but also had the confidence to know she could do it on her own, too. His question drew a sigh out of her. "I don't think there's much in the way of publishing here. The answers I want to find aren't as meaningful if the only people really learning from them live in this seven-floor apartment building. If I'm here for the two years it takes me to get through college, maybe things will feel more permanent, but right now?

"Lab accident." He smirked, "Bet you didn't see that coming." Said ironically. Because probably literally everyone could. Cisco had spent most of his life in a lab. Working in one, completing his schooling in one, labs were where he was most comfortable. "Particle Accelerator to be exact though. It basically split apart and thousands of shards of dark matter effected the entire city."

There was a sort of sad smile there. "He saw something, but it was only for his own gain."Wells was nothing but a user, Cisco knew that. "Anyway, wanna find a movie or something to watch in the meantime?" A swift change of direction, but he wanted to not talk about Wells anymore. When she sighed he raised an eyebrow. "I can poke around people and see if they have any publishing connections, mine are all science related..."
