Yeah, by trusting the man who murdered my mother.

[there's a bitterness to his tone that has little to do with harrison's imminent departure. the idea that the man responsible for his mother's death, for his father's false conviction, had been so close all that time... it may have been weeks since he discovered the truth, but it still stings.]

And now you're going to leave me here with him.

[harrisonwells]

I'm not telling you to trust him. Or even go near him. Barry. You have other allies here. You don't need me.

[And Eobard is a very dangerous topic, for very few reasons, none of which he wants to go into now. He changes the subject, violently.]

You might not realize it yet but Cisco Ramon and Gwen Stacy would do anything for you.

[speedforcer]

[the switch in subject catches him entirely off-guard, and for a moment, he does little more than stare back at harrison, his confusion clear. quite why he's bringing up cisco and gwen, he isn't sure. but, well...cisco he can at least explain. they're working together back home. they're friends. he knows that one day, he'll come to trust cisco with his life. but that's a future that's still too far off for him to rely on just yet.

gwen, on the other hand...]

O...kay...? I know about the team already. Cisco and Caitlin. And you. What does Gwen have to do with it? She's not from our world. [so to speak]

[harrisonwells]

Because, Barry. [Gwen is going to kill him for this. Cisco may well join her. But Harrison is leaving, he's leaving Barry behind, he's leaving Eobard behind and he has no idea how that's going to affect the distance that Eobard is keeping from Barry, and—

And he wants Gwen and Cisco to be happy. Frankly. He does. He's seen them together, all three of them and then just the two of them, and he's seen both of them trying to recover from finding this new Barry who doesn't know them...they deserve to be happy.]

They are—were, and are—in love with you. And you were with them, before you left. It worked, and you were happy. I know you don't remember it, why would you, this you has never been here before, but. [He spreads his arms, lets them drop again. There it is. Can't be unheard.]
