[ The pieces click into place fairly quickly, the moment Taako says that. Cisco should have seen that it was him mentioning Lucretia that had brought this on, but he'd been too used to thinking that she and Taako were cool now. They lived together. Taako had defended her, to Cisco.
But of course, that sort of thing isn't set in stone. And if she had gotten a canister, reverted to a point in her timeline after she'd erased Taako's memories and sent him adrift into the world alone... yeah. He could see how that might cause this. ]
And it changed things.
[ It's not a question, the way Cisco says it. Even if Taako had been able to reconcile with a younger version of Lucretia, that doesn't mean he will be able to with one who had actually pulled that trigger. Cisco crosses his arms, the way he almost always does when he's upset, without even realizing it. ]
I'm guessing this is why you've been so MIA, huh? Damn, you really can't catch a break...
[ Magnus showing up without his memories, and now Lucretia becoming not a friend who would betray him, but one who already had... it's some pretty tough luck. ]
