You would think that, wouldn't you?

[ He can hear all of that smugness and yet he's going to reply with his own brand of cockiness. ]

For someone who wants to get in my way right now you're doing a poor job of it. For all you know I'm in De Chima right now or maybe Nonah. Might want to check the news, Flash. I'd hate to see your image get tarnished.

[harrisonwells]

Only because it's true. I'm sorry, have we been ignoring you? Did you have to try this hard to get noticed back on your Earth?

[Which isn't to say he's not immediately checking news feeds for De Chima, and Nonah, and Maurtia Falls and Heropa just to be on the safe side. Zoom doesn't usually do idle threats. If he's bothering to prod Harrison into action, there's a reason.]

[tardily]

I know better than to answer that. I wouldn't say you've been ignoring me, but I think you could be doing better things than rescuing kittens from trees. Or whatever it is you and Jesse have been doing.

[ He's not giving it away, it's subtle what he's doing right now. Something the news won't have reported on just yet.

Or maybe it's nothing.

( It's not. ) ]

[harrisonwells]

Right. Well, you know me, always up for doing better things. I'm a little busy right now, what did you have in mind? Coffee?

[Nothing's coming up, nothing is standing out as something that might have Zoom behind it. It's hard to be flippant like that, but it's better than losing it and yelling at him in text. Or calling him and listening to that happy laugh.]

[tardily]

Coffee. For us. Oh, Flash, I had no idea you wanted to go on a coffee date with me.

[ It's a distraction. This is such a distraction from what he's going to do. Catch a Flash off guard and he'll be off guard all day long. ]

[harrisonwells]

I might not say no, but then again, you're a little young for me, Zoom. People might talk.

[It's certainly going to take him the rest of the day watching the news feeds from all four cities before he manages to convince himself that it was a trick to rile him up.]
