Another Whammy

For Barry

Disclaimer: Its that time for some fun with Barry! I originally got this idea off of something that was shared on Facebook awhile ago. Gotta love nice random inspiration like that! I figured this would go best here in Possibilities.

Summary: Barry gets whammied again.

It was a pretty nice day in Central City and the residents of the city were all enjoying it to the fullest. Even Barry had been out and about and could be briefly seen through out random areas of the city. Though little did any of them know that he had been whammied by a new meta human. The whole thing would later have Joe be heard saying that if he knew this was going to happen, he would have just stayed in bed that day. The meta human in question had the ability to lower one's inhibitions enough to a certain point where one would be more likely to do something they wouldn't normally do. And do it quite happily at that. For Barry, this whammy proved to be just as interesting as the last time but thankfully it wasn't meaning anything bad. Unless you happened to be a fan of the Flash or someone Barry knew and possibly was in on the secret. Then you would likely just be pretty darned embarrassed.

Even for the meta human, it was a pretty bizarre sight to see. Cisco still had trouble giving the guy a nickname that would fit him. Something that Caitlin enjoyed bugging her friend about. As for why it was pretty bizarre? Well, its not often you see a guy in a costume who adds in a purple looking trenchoat and a purple fedora with some kind of black head band that went underneath the fedora. The whammy had also made him a bit more of a flirt and acting like a loony toon as well. Once Oliver heard the story later on, he was pretty happy he hadn't of been in the area. As even he didn't want to deal with something that crazy.

Currently the whammied Flash was walking down a random sidewalk giving thumbs up to every pretty girl he came across. Along with talking animatedly with various folks of all sorts of walks of life and just generally having a good old time doing nothing. Whether or not it was helping him gain the trust of the people was another story, but at least they were learning that he seemed to be a goofy guy who was also something of a people person. He even posed for cameras as well, he would have done the same for any news crews or paparazzi fellows too if they weren't trying their best to avoid getting caught.

It was then that Linda came into his line of sight and making use of his speed, he was in front of her faster then she could blink. "Hey yo!" He wiggled his eyebrows at her despite the fact it was a useless thing to do due to the mask and hat.

Needless to say, Miss Park was a bit startled by his sudden appearance. "Um... Hi?" This is supposed to be Iris' thing, not hers! As she is in Sports thank you very much!

"Hello! And how is your lovely self this fantastic day?" He made all sorts of gestures with his hands and his body, as if he was trying to woo her or some such.

The girl looked at him, wondering if he somehow might have hit his head while running so fast. "Are you okay? You didn't hit your head or ingest anything did you?" She might be a tiny bit freaked out, but she was also still worried about the man before her. The fact he felt familiar to her somehow wasn't helping either.

To her surprise and hidden delight as she was an Elvis Presley fan, he mimicked a few of the legend's moves as he told her he was feeling just fine. And if she went with him, he'd be doing fantastic even. Him calling her his little 'Ghost Pepper' finally got her to realize who he was however, which totally resolved why he felt so familiar to her. But she held back on saying his name as she knew it wouldn't be a good idea to accidentally reveal who he was while out in the open. While she let him go, she did regret it to a degree as she had really started to like him. The fact he seemed to be flirting with her while he seemed to be affected by something that was causing him to look so damned ridiculous was a reason she didn't try anything back.

Before she could do anything else though, a white van with a STAR Labs logo on the side came rushing by before stopping and reversing. A long black haired man soon got out of the van once it stopped a decent length from them. "Flash! Bro, we gotta get you back to the lab man!" Well thank God someone was trying to help snap him out of whatever weirdness he was in.

"Why? I feel fine my main Cisco man!" And did yet another Elvis move. Something that seemed to stun the newcomer a bit.

"CISCO! What's going on out there!?" Came a feminine voice that Linda assumed was the driver.

"Uhh.. Let's just say you'd have to see it to believe it!" Linda definitely had to agree with that one!

Her ex shook his head rapidly and it briefly made her worry he was going to hurt himself. And then he took off, making the Cisco guy groan in annoyance. "Caitlin! He's gone! Let's fuel up and go find him again!" Linda had to wince as she heard a scream of frustration come from the van. And gave Cisco a look of sympathy.

Grabbing his arm before he could leave however, she told him she knew who the Flash was after a quick introduction and that she wished him and his friend good luck in getting to him. To say that Cisco was shocked by that admission was no surprise. Pity he had to meet the girl Barry had been with for a short time after they had broken up. He gave the girl a nod of thanks, climbed back into the van, and soon it was roaring off. Linda had to shake her head, she didn't know what else the day had in store. But she certainly hoped Barry's friends would be able to stop the Speedster from doing anything truly embarrassing. And would enjoy having the satistifaction for a long time to come that she found out WAY before Iris did. Ha! Oh yeah!

Author's Notes: Well this turned out quite a bit differently then what I had in mind. But since this was generally just a bit of fun craziness, it works for me. May you all have enjoyed!
