That's a longer story than you think sis. Come up to the office, we can talk there.

[gildedshot]

Okay , headed your way.

[she heads up to her brothers office and lets herself in]

[old_school]

[He's at his desk, thoughtfully regarding the picture of Nora he keeps there as Lisa lets herself in.]

So little sister. What brings on a question like that?

[gildedshot]

[Lisa takes a seat in one of his plush chairs and smiles fondly at him]

I really like Jefferson.

[old_school]

Interesting.
And you think he might be it for you?

[Oh he is going to have a chat with Jefferson sooner rather than later apparently.]

[gildedshot]

I don't know. Maybe? [She shifts a little in her seat]

I've never felt like this about a guy before. I don't know if it's love or infatuation or what...but I know when I wake up in the morning I'm sad if he's not there with me.

[old_school]

It took me a long time to trust that this wasn't going to be taken away from me. Nora is a wonderful woman but.. [Well. Lisa knows better than anyone that good things were often ripped away from them as children.]

I had a long conversation with a friend about it, a Leonard Snart from a completely different Earth. Same bastard father, but a different man.

[gildedshot]

What did he tell you, this other you?

[old_school]

To have faith.
[He twists the simple ring on his finger] To have faith in her.

He found his boyfriend here in New Dodge, they got married almost right away. I asked him why he would do that, when either of them could be sent back or taken away.

He said it was faith.

[gildedshot]

[Lisa lifts a leg and wraps her arms around it leaning forward to rest her chin on her knee as if in deep thought.]

I asked Mick the same question and he said he asked Diana because even if she left tomorrow he’d want her to know that if he had the opportunity to spend his life with her, he would.

Lenny I don’t know if I know how to love someone right.

[old_school]

I didn't think so either. [He gets up from his desk moving to sit beside his little sister.] I thought a woman like Nora would never want a criminal, someone with my past.

She was patient. She was kind. When I asked her not to push, she didn't. [The corners of his lips twitch] Unless I needed the push.

Barry inherited a lot of good things from her.

[gildedshot]

[Lisa gives him a small smirk]

I honestly always thought you'd end up with him, ya know? You were pretty obsessed with him back in Central especially when you first figured out who he was. Kind of funny you're with his mom instead though.

In all seriousness though, I don't wanna mess this up, but I don't know how not too.

[old_school]

This Barry Allen has been in love with Cisco Ramon since the day he arrived in New Dodge.

You won't know how.
There are no hard and fast rules for this, sis. I wish there were.

[gildedshot]

[She wishes there were rules too]

I really don't know what to do. I mean, he took me ice skating in a magical fairy tail land! Who does that?! It was amazing!

[She's quiet for a moment before looking back up at him.]


I'm glad you're here Lenny. Don't scare him too much when you go talk to him, please.

[old_school]

[Leonard threads his fingers loosely as he listens. Lisa seems genuinely happy and content with this person and while he's naturally wary, well. He's just being a good big brother.] Does he make you happy, Lise?

[gildedshot]

Yeah, yeah he does.

[old_school]

That's what matters then.

I promise I won't scare him too much. I won't even bring Mick along.

[gildedshot]

So you think maybe it’s okay to like go for it? See where it goes?

[old_school]

Yeah Lise. I think if he makes you happy, you should be happy. [She deserves that and so much more. All of the things he'd never been able to give her when they were growing up.]

[gildedshot]

I don't know if I know how to handle being happy.
