for how long? i can't just keep doing this indefinitely harry it's messed up i can't just scroll past him making posts on the network chatting to people about halloween like he's not a psycho killer
[ ON THE ONE HAND — he's not wrong and has every right to be mad. Harrison seethes every time Thawne appears on the network. On the other hand, there has to be some other way of dealing with him. Something mildly productive, anyway. ]
Think. Use that head of yours
Ideally, what do you want to do about him? Keeping in mind that he exists in the here and now and killing him isn't an option.
lock him up. somewhere like the pipeline, that he can't get out of. somewhere he can't hurt anyone.
if he were locked up he could make all the network posts he wanted and i wouldn't care but i hate thinking about him going around being charming and making friends, making people TRUST him.
[ He's not sure. But it's the right thing to do. He can't keep on living like this. And, he thinks, Barry wouldn't hesitate. ]
yeah. i've done it before. things didn't really go according to plan back then but that was because we didn't know about his surveillance equipment yet. this time it'll work.
[ It strikes him how different this is to last time. How it's him talking Harry into letting him be bait, not him being talked into it by someone else. ]
i'm sure. it's the right thing to do. he's been trying to get me to forgive him ever since we showed up. it should be easy.
[ All information that Harry knows, and Cisco knows he knows it. He just is repeating it to remind himself, too. ]
[ As much as it pains him to admit that. Funny, how he'd gone from laughing callously at Thawne murdering him in an erased timeline to immediately being concerned over putting him in Thawne's proximity. How things change, how they change. ]
[ Cisco knows why Harry is saying it, though. His fear of Eobard is not always enough to conquer his reckless anger at him, that bitterness and defiance that might bubble up at any moment - like it had just now when he'd replied to that stupid post on the network. He knows his judgement is compromised. Eobard was one of Cisco's blind spots, too, in a very different way. ]
i'm gonna come by the workshop and we can talk containment. i'll try not to antagonize him anymore. i just want it OVER
[ And Cisco knows exactly why, too, after that phone stunt. But that's peanuts compared to what he and Allen and Snow have dealt with; the thought of that makes Harrison's blood boil again. ]

We'd need a place to trap him in and a way to lure him in

i'm willing to be bait if it means finally just dealing with him.

Are you sure?
