[ A great way to start a conversation is in the middle of a road in Central City. It's the dead of night, at least, but here they are: Barry Allen, in his usual state of vague confusion (he's got to stop this shit) and...
...someone.
Who knows he's the Flash! So that's a plus, but he finds himself sort of nodding along to her last words. ]
Okay--yes--first of all, very confusing, not too sure I like the 'wrong' part of that 'wrong flash' sentence, seems a little demeaning--also who are you?

No offense intended, I assure you. [ Not really. He's not Wally, but-
He's kind of cute, too. Maybe all the different iterations of the Flash out there in the multiverse are? No, Rose, now isn't the time to be thinking about that. (She still will though, because she's her.) ]
My name's Rose. I was stuck in a place called Haven with a guy named Wally West. He told me he was the Flash, but then he left. So once I got the chance, I went to find him. [ A beat. ] Obviously, I got my paths crossed somewhere along the way.
[ There had been like... three different Supermans at one point in Haven, too, she's pretty sure. Why was this particular set of universes such a mess? ]
[ West? Like Iris West? Barry, for once in his life, doesn't actually say that--instead, he blinks rapidly, as if somehow shutting his eyes in quick succession will mean he can process the information faster. ]
Yeah, paths. [ He doesn't really mean to sound dismissive even if it sort of fumbles out like that--he's trying to think, trying to add everything up.
Sorry, Rose. He's definitely one of the newer Flashes. ]
Uhm. Not... exactly. I had one shot and, well. I missed it, looks like. So unless you got any dimension-hopping friends, I'm probably stuck here for the foreseeable future.
[ She's... a lot more non-chalant about this than she has any right to be, really. ]
omg perfect

So you're saying you can just hop dimensions?

About that. ]
