Right. Whatever it is, it was strong enough to make the systems go nutters so it must have some sort of connection to electromagnetic energy.

[ it helps, his practical sort of thinking. it was usually Caitlin's approach to things. When in doubt, examine and experiment. ]

We can try different currents.

[winn]

[ it's what usually works for him; focusing on a problem he can solve, an interesting scientific mystery, something to keep him out of his own head, spiraling and driving himself to the very madness he fears. ]

Totally, yeah, that's a great idea. [ he nods enthusiastically, happy to see cisco jumping on board. ] We can start there and plan the next move once we have some results!

[benames]

Everyone is going out there into the forest. At least we can do Project Creep Out here near the ship. I am not going in there. Have you seen that place? it looks like the Planet of the Apes.

[ .... ]

and I am actually even more weirded out now since I actually know a giant, psychic gorilla.

[winn]

Yeah, I'm totally with you. I'm thinking one close encounter with a t-rex is enough for us, we can ask Kara to take a camera or something - team backup should stay, you know, back.

[ too many near death experiences lately, he's not going looking for another one, thank you. besides, he's of much more use here, helping his friend figure stuff out and helping him through whatever he's feeling, if he wants to talk. ]

Especially since you mentioning that, by rules of crappy TV, means that there are going to be giant psychic gorillas in there which I take it are not gonna be friendly -

[benames]

Grodd liked Caitlin. They always like girls somehow. I bet the ones there will somehow be Kara's bffs.

[ he takes the coffee mug kate brought him ]

I mean, I tried to feel sorry for him but I was too busy being terrified he's -

[ he gestures way way above their heads ]

huge.

[winn]

If there was any doubt left regarding our joint ancestry -

[ big angry gorilla likes ladies. sounds like every guy who tortured him in high school. ]

Don't worry, whatever's out there - Kara can take it. And the rest of the superheroes seem pretty badass too.

[benames]

Their codename suck. Kate's friend is called Miss America. Can you believe it? I sincerely think I should be allowed to take codename request from the entire multiverse.

[ firm nod ]

[winn]

Isn't that a beauty pageant or something?

[ frown. ]

You know that's not even the worst one. I'm still not over Squirrel Girl.

[benames]

My exact words -

[ offering him a fist to bump ]

I mean, no girl who can literally punch open the multiverse should go around with a name like Miss America, just saying.

[ ... ]

That is not a thing. You are kidding.

[ horror levels rising when he realizes that ]

...you're not kidding. I think I can cry.

[winn]

[ fist bump, and a solemn nod. ]

Ask Kate - if it's not true, then she's the one who made it up.

[benames]

You know, I have a feeling Kate's world has seriously cool people with stupid code names which you have to admit is kinda tragic.

[ though - ]

....Hawkeye's cool, though.

[winn]

That feeling has been confirmed, yeah, they desperately need a designated codenamer.

[ nodding. ]

Hawkeye is awesome. Did she show you the suit?

[benames]

...No. Is there a suit?

[ w h a t ]

that girl does not the meaning of true friendship.

[winn]

[ sorry, bro, but he can't really help the smile. ]

Yeah I uh, I made it.

[ look he can't go around talking about other people's suits, you understand, right? it was back when cisco was new, he didn't know how close he and kate were, he figured she'd show him when she's ready - he asked for her permission to include him in working on the teched up glasses for her and she said yes, so. cisco took part in it without realizing. ] It's what those glasses we've been working on are for.

[benames]

....You made a new supersuit and you didn't tell me? Oh heartache, old friend.

[ hand to heart. it's mostly unnecessary dramatics, it's clear he's not really mad since he mostly rants ]

You know, if I ever get pizza from the aliens, I am not sharing with any of you.

[winn]

Hey look, you know how it works. The superhero's the one who gets to talk about those things. But she was taking too damn long, seriously that thing is my masterpiece of design. It's so. Cool.

[ pulling out his phone he shows cisco the selfie he took with kate the day he gave her the suit. ]

She didn't even have an emblem, all I had to work with is 'purple'.

[benames]

Those other world superheros will just make me cry one day. One of these days. manly tears.

[ he looks at it, makes a hum of approval ]

and I thought I was the Seamstress to the Stars. Gotta admit, it's awesome.

[winn]

Tailor, Cisco, Tailor to the Terribly Titled.

[ he nods with a smile. ]

Thanks, man. Means a lot from someone who knows what he's talking about.
