Pre-Flashpoint:

Barry kisses Jasmine right after Felicity visits. She’s working late at Star Labs when Barry shows up and makes an excuse for seeing her. She’s just about to leave when she kisses him on the cheek which awakens something in Barry and he kisses her.

They take things slow for a really long time because Barry is afraid of his speed and her power and because he’s also afraid of what Joe will do. However, Barry approaches Jasmine after encountering Earth-2 Barry and Iris and realizes that’s not the life he wants. She asks him if he wants to do this and he says he’s never been more sure of anything in his life.

Post Flashpoint. SPOILERS!

Barry comes back and hugs Jasmine before trying to go in for a kiss. Jasmine stops him and they dance around each other as he keeps trying to convince her. Eventually he leans in and kisses her late at Star Labs again but she pushes him away.

It’s only a few episodes later that Jasmine regains her memories and appears outside Barry’s door in the pouring rain and kisses him and basically pushes him onto the couch. Barry asks if she wants to do this and she parallel’s Barry’s words by saying that she’s never been more sure of anything in her life.

Plot Twist: Jasmine finds out about her fate and in order to save Barry, switches her name using the Book of Destiny instead of Lex.

Barry: would be horrified that she would go to such extremes to continue to be with him, but appreciate her help later down the line and would be happy he didn’t lose her and his kid.

Jasmine: The guilt would weigh on her. Knowing that she caused someone else to be erased so she could spend time with her husband is too much.

1. They don’t know how it happened. At first they thought it was the book of destiny but the monitor ruled that out.

2. Jasmine loves getting places faster. She honestly thinks that she could use both of the powers in daily life and Barry’s is funner.

3. Barry walks around all day pretending he has the force and quoting Star Wars while getting into pretend lightsaber battles with Cisco.

4. However they do not do well when it comes to fighting crime and end up getting into a fight where they say they want their powers back.

Either debating the dangers of being a superhero or who loves each other more.

Who is most likely to carry the other:

Jasmine. Just from the sheer amount of injuries Barry gets.

What’s the first thing that changes when they realize they have feelings for each other:

Their relationships with other people and their work relationship. They are instantly more affectionate which affects Joe and Iris’ relationship with Barry and Cisco and Caitlin’s relationship with Jasmine.

Who worries the most:

They both worry about the same amount, but Barry is instantly more overprotective after they get married.

Who tops:

They switch. Barry is nervous the first time so Jasmine tops first.

Who reaches for the other’s hand first:

Jasmine. Barry’s touch is one of the only things that will calm her down and give her peace. So she always reaches for his hand.

Barry does. Right after Flashpoint when he returns and everything is messed up.

Who is more likely to start dancing with the other:

Barry. He loves to dance and Jasmine will reluctantly take his hand and slow dance with him.

Who comes up with cheesy pick up lines:

Jasmine. She’s great with words and puns so she distracts Barry with them sometimes.

Who needs more assurance:

Jasmine. She knows that Barry was in love with Iris for a long time (and for some reason the universe wants them together) and so she’s constantly worried about Barry’s love for her.

Who would sing their child back to sleep:

Barry 1000%

He sings to baby Nora all the time cause she was a cranky baby.
