**Author's note: I probably should have made these in chronological order but I didn't end up writing them that way so… sorry. Maybe I'll fix it later but for now this story takes place during the FlashxArrow crossover. Also it's kind of more script-style to focus on the dialogue. Thanks for reading!**
R: So who is this guy? And why do we need his help?
O: We don't need his help.
F: Yes we do!
O: No, we don't. Felicity was just asking Star labs to help analyse the DNA of Sara's killer and they invited themselves and Barry to the Foundry.
F: So what? We needed Caitlyn and Cisco's help anyway and Barry may as well come along and help with this mysterious boomerang assassin. Couldn't hurt to have an extra guy out there, helping you boys. Especially when he has super-speed.
O: Yes it could hurt. Barry will just get in the way.
R: Wait. Super speed?
F: Yeah, when the particle accelerator was turned on last year he got hit by lightning and ended up with super speed.
R: Cool!
O: Yeah, but he's untrained and way too enthusiastic.
F (snorts): YOU trained him. And the Arrow cave could use some enthusiasm for once. You boys are all so moody.
O: How many times do I have to tell you? We don't call it the Arrow cave.
F: See? So moody and broody. Angst. All the time.
R: So how fast are we talking?
D: Very fast.
F: I think Cisco said he broke the sound barrier once.
R: But he's untrained?
O: I tried, but he was reluctant. Also a little bit raged-out. Needless to say, we made very little progress. Kinda reminded me of training you, actually.
R: Gee, thanks.
D: So, Felicity, is he fast at EVERYTHING?
F (blushes): What? Why are you asking me that? We didn't do anything! I mean we did but not that. So I wouldn't know. I mean, I don't know if he's fast at that. He's fast at like, running and healing and talking.
R (under his breath): Probably still doesn't compare to you in that department.
D: It's pretty mind-blowing.
F: Yeah, it's very cool. There's one small downside which is that without his suit sometimes he catches on fire. Or if he's holding you, you can catch on fire. I mean that literally, not figuratively "catch on fire" because he's hot or something. I mean he IS hot, but from running so fast not from… I'm not saying he's NOT hot though. He's a very good looking guy.
D: You caught on fire?
O: What do you mean, 'holding you'?
F: He gave me a ride. Um, that came out wrong. He carried me back to Star labs, remember? And I didn't catch on fire, technically. Just my blouse.
Cisco: Yeah that was awesome. I mean awkward. That was awkward.
Cisco, Caitlyn and Barry had made their way down to the foundry sometime during the conversation.
Caitlyn: Please excuse Cisco, you partially fried his brains when he saw you shirtless.
Felicity was bright red at this point. Oliver too, but not from embarrassment.
Cisco: Pshh you could never fry this brain. I always say inappropriate things, don't worry.
B: I don't think anyone was worried, Cisco.
Barry laughed and smiled at Felicity, who smiled back.
F: Good to see you again Barry. You too Caitlyn, Cisco.
As Caitlyn and Cisco introduced themselves to Diggle and Roy, Felicity took Barry aside.
F: I'm glad you decided to come with them. Oliver's going to be a bit, "grrr" about you helping out, but he really appreciates it.
B: I'm not going to end up with more arrows in me, am I?
F (laughing): Probably not.
B: Probably?! At least he doesn't know we kissed or I have a feeling I'd become target practice!
O: Don't be ridiculous, I don't need any practice.
Oliver gave Barry a dark look as he continued to sharpen his arrows. Felicity hadn't noticed how close Oliver had been standing to them; had no idea he'd been listening to their conversation.
B (swallows nervously): Oliver, so, how sharp do those need to be?
