So.
The prodigal daughter returns.
I originally was going to delete this. I don't have the original copy of this story anyways, so I didn't see the point of updating it.
So I won't. I am deleting this story and starting a new one. Oh it will be Barry/OC and still be AU, but only a little because I'm actually watching the show. The only AU bit will be that WestAllen isn't canon.
To Bandersnatch: You know, I had so much to say to you. So much I wanted to write. I wanted to tear you to shreds for how your review affected me. But then I realized...it really isn't worth it. You are not worth my tears. I am done letting your review control me. I am posting my new story and I really don't care if you don't like it. It's my story. Mine. I put it out there to let people enjoy it. If they don't, that's their problem.
You think you're Harrison Wells, the harsh mentor telling me to grow a thicker skin because you believe in tough love, but in reality you're just Hartley Rathaway, a self-entitled bully who enjoys tearing others down. I'm not Cisco, or Caitlin, or Barry, or even Iris. I'm me, and I don't like bullies. I don't care where they're from.
I did grow a thicker skin, but it wasn't because of you. In the words of an amazing woman: "I know my value. Anyone else's opinion doesn't matter."
And for the record, when I said you needed to edit your review, I didn't mean for language.
