[ Cisco makes a small scoffing noise when Eddie says he thought Rip would be mad, rubbing his hand against Eddie's back once again when they've sat down. ]

If what I've heard from Ray's true, he's personally done a hell of a lot more to mess up the timeline than you. Than either of us.

[ They'd nearly changed the outcome of the Cold War: that's bigger than Eddie erasing one man from existence by killing himself, even with the singularity factored in. But Cisco isn't actually judgmental of the fact that Rip's intervened. Quite the opposite. ]

That's good, though. It means when he says he's willing to help, he means it. He's willing to do the right thing even if it's hard. And saving you's the right thing, so... he'll have our backs, probably. Which is awesome.

[ Cisco turns to plant a kiss on Eddie's temple. There are no guarantees, but Cisco isn't going to let his optimism flag. He'll believe enough for the both of them, work hard enough, and they'll find a way. He knows they will. ]

Well Ray said that instead of just asking, he just grabbed all of them and then showed them what the world would look like if they didn't stop Savage. I don't think tact's really his thing, somehow.
