Dude.
Cisco has a crush.
We need to help him with this.

Comments

[vivifier]

...Obviously. On who?

[chosenbylightning]

On Mick.
He doesn't even know if he's into guys so he's going to just be Cisco and wallow.

[vivifier]

One of us could ask Mick.

[chosenbylightning]

We could.
If you think being that direct is the best way to go?

[vivifier]

...no. He'd probably think one of us liked him.

Hm.

[chosenbylightning]

[Cough. Snort.]

Yeah that's not gonna work.
Can we just ask him about Cisco?

[vivifier]

"Do you think Cisco is hot, check yes or no?"

[chosenbylightning]

[A laugh. Yeah that's not gonna work either.] Mick is pretty direct but maybe that's too direct?

[vivifier]

Ask him what he thinks of Cisco?

[chosenbylightning]

We could, but Mick isn't exactly the subtle type. Best we might get is that he doesn't suck as a roommate.

[vivifier]

Then what do you suggest? Locking them in a room ala The Parent Trap?

[chosenbylightning]

Between Mick's new powers and Cisco's I don't think that's gonna fly.

Maybe push them at each other the next movie night?

[vivifier]

I'm sure there are power dampeners in Star Labs.

...sure, we could try it that way.

[chosenbylightning]

He's talking about a movie night, maybe if we work each of them they'll get a clue?

[vivifier]

Make sure they have to sit next to each other.

[chosenbylightning]

I think we can do that.
Do you know if Mick likes any sci-fi movies?

[vivifier]

We were watching Star Trek the other day. So he at least likes those.

[chosenbylightning]

He does?!
That's our in. We make them sit by each other and watch Wrath of Khan.

[vivifier]

Perfect. Is that all we need to do?

[chosenbylightning]

No idea.
But I think it's a good start?

[vivifier]

Alcohol?

[chosenbylightning]

And food. Ollie's been complaining about Mick stealing stuff from his kitchen.

[vivifier]

Of course he is.

What about music?

[chosenbylightning]

We've seen Cisco dance. I'm pretty sure if we get him drunk enough to dance around Mick he'll never forgive us.

[vivifier]

So, no music.

[chosenbylightning]

Probably not. But Star Trek, food and booze and keep them together and see what happens?

[vivifier]

Should we tell anyone else? Like Caitlin?

[chosenbylightning]

That's either the best or worst idea ever. Cait would totally help.

Frost however would make matters a hundred times worse.

[vivifier]

Caitlin isn't exactly subtle or the best actress. Remember Grodd?

[chosenbylightning]

No she's not that subtle but I think she'd want to be in on this for Cisco.

[vivifier]

Then we should ask.

Joint Text - Savitar, Caitlin, Barry

[chosenbylightning]

[Shortly after this Barry opens up a group text.]

Caitlin - are you up for a little conspiring?

[snowandfrost]

Always. What do you have in mind?

[chosenbylightning]

Cisco has a crush. We need to get them together during the next upcoming movie night.


It's Mick.

[snowandfrost]

Mick?!

...how can we help?

[chosenbylightning]

Cisco wants to do a movie night. We need to make sure those two sit together. Like close. Maybe get a couple of drinks into them.

[snowandfrost]

Something like this, maybe?

[Here's a picture of pilfered scotch and vodka. The remaining layer of frost around them should give away which side "borrowed" this from the rest of STAR Labs.]

[chosenbylightning]

Perfect.

Um. But Frost? Maybe don't blab to Mick that we know? Cisco will kill me. Probably twice, even if this is for his own good.

[snowandfrost]

I'll get her to play nice.

[chosenbylightning]

You're the best Cait.

Cisco is gonna thank us. You know, eventually.

[snowandfrost]

Maybe some day. At his and Mick’s wedding.

[chosenbylightning]

Fingers crossed. ;) I'll keep you guys posted on plans.
