[Barry though, seems fairly chill. It's not the first time he's taken an accidental trip to an alternate universe - that's how he met Kara in the first place - but it is a bit of a pain when he doesn't know how to get home. That's why when the alternate Flash shows up, he's a bit relieved.]
Oh, thank God. I thought I was going to have to speed my way out of this all on my own.
[There's a grin as he makes his way closer and holds out a hand.]
Are you a Flash? Or do you go by something different like "Accelerated Man" or something?
[ 'accelerated man' gets him back onto the same page, and his hand moves up, as if to say 'one second' before it drops to his side again. He's standing normally now, though, no longer in mid-run or about to bolt. ]
Huh. [ It's said with conviction--'that's neat' without using his words, and his hands move to his hips, eyes narrowing. ]
'A flash' seems sort of rude, but not in a bad way, just---maybe demeaning? The flash was sort of what I was going for? [ Why that was phrased as a question is beyond him. ]
Are you--I mean, you're not me, but are you-- [ his voice dips, whispering: ] Did you get struck by lightning?
[ He mumbles when it comes to the answer and it sounds an awful lot like 'something like that' but is a little too indecipherable, probably on purpose but mostly because he's a little distracted.
There's someone else here. Someone that knows how to go super super fast. Someone else that calls himself the Flash.

[And he grins because meeting other speedsters was always the coolest. The origin stories were always awesome.]
Yeah, on the night a particle accelerator exploded. You too?

Barry blurts out the first thing he thinks of: ]
Are we an army?
no subject
No, no. But we're all connected by the speed force.
[He then glances around, concerned.]
Maybe we should take this elsewhere.
