Drabble inspired by Crisis on Earth-X, I'm not even sure what show it was technically on (I think Flash?). At any rate, putting it under Arrow because it mainly involves Arrow characters and is from the POV of an Arrow character (Felicity).
Unexpected Nightmare
Glowing red eyes, voice straight from every horror movie ever, the vibrating hand that killed Cisco and so many others now only inches from her chest—the Reverse Flash was utterly terrifying, and before today she would have said he was almost exactly her worst nightmares come to life.
Before today. Before an actual Nazi, a nightmare she had long relegated to her grandparent's time, with Oliver's face and voice and mannerisms showed up. Before the man she loved hated everything about her, right down to her DNA.
Today, the Reverse Flash was the better of two very bad options.
This is definitely going to make my notes longer than the actual drabble, but I have no one to really talk to this about and I need to know: am I the only person that thinks flavored-sparkling-water chick at Barry and Iris's wedding was supposed to be Dawn? I mean, she looked like she could be their kid, in the comics I believe she's a speedster (and therefore capable of time travel), she had the speedster/family propensity for fast babbling and spilling things she maybe shouldn't, she seemed really obsessed with the idea of it being Barry's wedding (note, no mention of Iris) and of meeting Barry (again, no mention of Iris, which makes sense if she'd never really known her dad but knew her mom well), Barry disappeared/"died" when the twins were young in the comics and he's scheduled to disappear "presumed dead" in 2024 in show canon (which would make the twins/kid no older than six), and they've dropped hints about the twins in show (I'm thinking especially of a returned Barry with his past-present-future all mixed up saying "looks like we're gonna need more diapers"). There's no reason she couldn't be right?
Okay, ramble over. The crossover was fantastic. I bawled like a baby multiple times.
May add more to this as I get inspired; marking it complete for now.
