That's fair.

[ Cisco has a feeling that, after the conflict that landed him in the hospital, Poe would probably be easy to convince. Rey... is probably going to be another matter, but Cisco knows that Finn is right. If there's any sort of plan, all of them should sign off on it, first. But that doesn't mean he can't start looking into matters, getting down some ideas. A modification of the pipeline should work - he would just have to pinpoint the differences between neutralizing metahuman abilities and neutralizing Force-based abilities. ]

You should warn her, though, that if he hurts other people, it might not be up to her any longer.

[ He figures that news would probably be best, coming from Finn rather than himself. And while Cisco agrees that it's best not to make other people's decisions for them, he's also not going to cover for someone who is a public threat, just because it'll make Rey feel better. Cisco is loyal to his friends - ferociously so - but not so much that he'll let innocent people get hurt. ]

I'll get to work on those panic buttons for you.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure she'll get that.

[ At least. She has to, right? There's a threshold on this being a contained problem. Finn heard more than enough gossip as it stood around Kylo Ren in the First Order. Temper of a rathtar, no concern for whatever got in front of a tantrum. ]

Thanks. [ This is one of those times in his life where no matter how much untainted gratitude bleeds into his tone, he feels like it still can't get enough across. ] Let me know what it costs. And if you need anything. I'll have you covered.

[ Cisco can't help hoping that things don't come to that. He hasn't ever argued with Rey, and quite frankly, doesn't ever want to. Conflict isn't anyone's favorite, but Cisco in particular dislikes it, particularly when it involves people he cares about. And he knows that, when it comes to his friends, he doesn't have a great track record at standing his ground, standing up for himself or what he believed was the right course of action.

But no need to worry about things that might not even happen. Better to focus on the present. ]

No charge. I'll just be recreating a program I already wrote and tweaking it a little. Besides, you're a friend. I'm not in the habit of charging friends for helping them. Not how I roll.

[ Maybe it's a little bold of him, declaring Finn a friend already, but he doesn't care. Cisco thinks of him that way. ]

I'll need a couple of minutes with each of your phones, when I'm done, to do the install and check everything's working, but that's it.

[ Never fear, Cisco. Finn will argue enough for two friends and cover anything that may fall short. Everyone brings their own strengths to the table. It's why he made this call.

Perhaps more importantly, Cisco calling him a friend is actually really touching? Finn doesn't have friends falling out of his pockets in the official sense. Plenty of people he's getting along with fine, plenty of people he likes. Not so many people he thinks would go past 'acquaintance.'

He doesn't contest this turn at all. Pact sealed. Welcome to the Finn friendship club, here's the Big Mood. ]

Cisco Ramon, has anyone ever told you you're a life-saver? [ Relief is also the big mood. All this is at least something. He feels more grounded. He also sounds like he's maybe running a hand down his face. ] I mean, I'm sure someone has. But if they haven't, they're wrong. You're a life-saver.

[ If Cisco's this generally Good now, it stands to reason he's probably always been like that. That's how it works, right. ]

[ Cisco laughs, then, blushing and delighted and happy. He would help regardless of gratitude, but it's always surprising and wonderful, to be thanked so openly. It's what keeps him going - helping good people, knowing he's made a difference. It was why he had helped to form Team Flash, and one of the reasons why he had decided to stay here. ]

Well, I'm not sure about that, but... any time. Seriously.
