[ He could correct Snart - that he's not been where she has, not exactly. That the assumptions he's making about Arya's world - that there's no sympathy for friendless children, no justice system organized enough for numbers, none of the things he's taking for granted. But Cisco knows Snart's talking more about himself than about Arya. He doesn't want to feel sorry for him, but it's a pretty pathetic trajectory he's mapped out. And if all those assumptions are making Snart sympathize with her, not blame her, then he isn't going to disrupt that. ]
she doesn't have to go that way.
she's such a smart kid, she's got so much potential, but all anyone in her world cared about what how they could use her.
[ Cisco doesn't get it. He'll never get it. His experience is so different from theirs he might as well be a different species.
Leonard doesn't sympathize with Arya. He empathizes. She's safer from him than anyone but Mick will ever know. Some part of him still wants to reach out to the girl like he'd tried to reach out to himself. Failed to reach out to himself. ]
Maybe not. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
Either way, there's always room for another Rogue.
