[ Cisco, Arya thinks, has always had the wrong idea about what Arya deserves. Sansa and Jon deserve better, for sure. Maybe Arya did too, once, but she's so different now, done too many unforgivable things, to deserve that kind of fresh start. She'd just disappoint Cisco. Arya can easily see how much better things could be in Central City, but she can just as easily see how bringing Arya to another world would be a huge mistake. The newness of the place would be frightening, and if the situation with Snart is any indication, Arya tends to make very, very poor decisions when she's frightened.

But she can't tell Cisco that. She's tried already, and for some reason, he refuses to believe her.

And then he tells Arya about his parents, and she knows she can't turn him down, not even if it's for his own good. Now, the offer is more personal. It doesn't just mean something to Arya: it means something to Cisco too, and for once in her life, Arya doesn't want to be rude. Not when Cisco has given her so much already. ]


I think...I think that sounds wonderful. Like the best thing in any world. Then we can always be friends, even after we leave this place.

[ Arya nibbles on her ice cream, to buy herself some time. ]

But even if you can bring me back, it may not work. If Jon or Sansa do not wish to come -- but I think I can convince them to come -- then I cannot leave them. [ A pause. ] And even if we all go there, you should know that it likely will not be easy. I could be blind again, I may not understand your language, I may do something stupid and awful because I got. [ um. ] Confused.
