[The last few days have been...overwhelming. Way too much to process, that Barry's The Flash, integrating everything that he just learned in with everything he already knew. Wally's head's been spinning all day, he's seen things he never expected to see, he's had explanations thrown at him that he still can't quite wrap his head around. But his dad is safe, now, he hadn't had to lose the only parent he had left, and the relief is worth the confusion.

But there's no ignoring the fact that he's pretty much the only one here who's smiling, who's able to smile. There's no ignoring the fact that Barry's just lost his dad like Wally was so scared to. He feels guilty being relieved, but he can't just turn it off.

By the time everyone's drifting out, Wally's comfortably and lazily tipsy, still picking at the pizza a bit. After he squeezes his dad's hand as Joe heads upstairs and Cisco sitting on the couch beside him, he tilts his head back, closes his eyes and swallows hard. When Cisco says he'll go if Wally wants, he turns his head a bit, offers Cisco a tiny, tired smile.]


Naw, man. I am too. Hell, stay the night if you want.

[Draping a hand over his head, against the back of the couch, he stares at the ceiling for a moment.]

Thanks, Cisco.

Yeah, why not?

[Wally shrugs against the back of the couch, exhaling deeply. He feels heavy and weightless all at once, his eyes tired and his body thrumming just a little. Maybe he's in shock, maybe it's just the sheer overwhelming magnitude of how much his world just opened up, but he's also...]

I'm beat too. This has been... [He shakes his head, laughs a bit. There are no words for what this has been, and he's pretty sure Cisco will get that. Cisco's always been the one to get him the most, besides, sometimes, Iris.

But when Cisco asks what he's saying thanks for, Wally rolls his head to the side, dark eyes opening slowly as he looks at the other young man, smiling a bit again.]


Seriously? You have to ask? [Another shake of his head.] For helping save my dad.
