[He grins a bit in return.]

You know I never mind answering them. But I won't subject you to it if you've got other places to be.

[eloquentness]

Nuh-uh. I cleared my entire schedule for this, [lies, blatant lies, she just doesn't want to write about real estate,] so I'm gonna help you.

Or at least try to help you.

[supertardiness]

[He grins a bit at that, before nodding.]

Okay. I'll do the science stuff, and since you're the writer, you can make my notes sound way more interesting than they actually are.

[eloquentness]

Of course. [ Maybe edit for grammar, if she's feeling particularly helpful.

She does, however, change her seat so that she's sitting right next to Barry. Just so she can rest her head on his shoulder. ]

I'm gonna jinx it, probably, but... this is nice.

[supertardiness]

[Barry shifts to slide an arm around her shoulders and gives it a small squeeze.]

Then I'm gonna jinx it too, because this is nice. Not that spending time with you ever isn't nice.

[eloquentness]

I know what you mean mean. [ she laughs, settling in, ] It's been a while since we've been all normal.

I'd say we should do this more often, but that's probably a triple jinx.

[supertardiness]

[He laughs, before nodding a bit.]

Probably. But I'd still like to try. It's probably just a matter of making time for it, right?

[He shrugs.]

Maybe me and Wally can trade off sometimes.

[eloquentness]

Yeah, but I wouldn't want to take you away from the world.

[ A hero-life balance is one tough juggling act. She hums thoughtfully, ] Cisco's getting better with his vibing too. It's probably a matter of time before he joins you in the field.

[supertardiness]

I'm all for it, man. We can just be a superhero fight squad. All the metas in Central City would know better than to mess with us.

[eloquentness]

They won't know what hit 'em.

[... literally. ]

Maybe then, they'd actually learn a thing or two.

[supertardiness]

We can only hope.

[He glances down at his watch.]

And I gotta get back to work. Still coming along?

[eloquentness]

Of course. [ without a second thought, she slides her hand into his: ] Just lead the way.

[supertardiness]

[He grins, and off they go to save Central City - the slow CSI way. /scene]
