Urgh, I’m so mad that I’m just getting this now, BUT here goes:

So Father’s Day is coming up and Mick has made plans to make himself scarce, cuz this is Len’s day and he doesn’t want to get in the way of anything. But then Gem, who is about five or six, comes up to him and asks if he’ll help her cook for Len on Father’s Day because “Mommy makes everything black or too gooey” and while Mick isn’t much better, at least he always cooks everything all the way through, unlike Sara who has a tendency of getting impatient and ending up with raw, slightly crispy food. So Mick caves, because of course he, he could never deny those blue eyes anything, no matter which Snart they were attached to. So Gem tells him to show up 10 on Sunday and he agrees, because when goddaughter tells you to show up, you show up.

So Sunday rolls around and Mick knocks on the door promptly at 10. Gem immediately opens the door and pulls Mick into the strangely dark house. She pulls him to the dining room, which is also really dark and tell him to stay right there, because she has to go make sure Daddy is still asleep, then they can start cooking. So Mick obediently stays where she left him, smiling slightly at the idiosyncrasies of five year olds.

Then all of a sudden all the lights in the house turn on, blinding Mick briefly. He blinks rapidly and as his sight clears, he sees that the dining room table is all decked out and two of the chairs, the ones on either side of Gem’s chair, are wrapped in streamers and covered in bows and have signs on the table in front of them. One reads “Daddy” and the other reads “God Daddy”, both written in very shaky crayon. And he looks up and Len is on the other side of the table, looking a little sleep rumble and blinking slowly, and Gem is holding his hand, and then they’re both beaming at him and Mick almost can’t breath, his chest is so tight, and Gem hauls Leonard over to the table and pushes him into the seat marked “Daddy” and then she bounces over to Mick and grabs his hand and she’s still grinning up at him and Mick has to blink rather rapidly as she pulls him over to the seat marked “God Daddy” and says “Sit!” in that voice just like her mother’s and he does and she looks at the pair of them and nods once in approval, then runs into the kitchen. And Mick staring really hard at the table, feeling overwhelmed and a little concerned, cuz this was supposed to be Leonard’s day, but when he looks up, Leonard is beaming at him, an almost exact copy of his daughter’s smile, and Mick refuses to cry, he doesn’t okay, there was just some dust in his eye, or glitter, because Gem seemed to have found Sara’s super secret stash of it (again), yeah it was glitter, shut up, Snart.

I have honestly never really thought about it, but I feel like having scenes with Len and Sara back in season 2 of Arrow would be really interesting, like would she be as accepting of him before going in the Pit? I think Leonard would still be absolutely enthralled by her, and I am 110% here for more Cisco and Lisa, like that ship needs to be canon yesterday, because they are the cutest ever and I am just imagining Cisco seeing Lisa and being like “Oh my god, who is that?” and Felicity is like “That’s my sister and she’s a little evil, so watch out” and Cisco is just completely head over heels, just like he is in Flash, and Sara is thoroughly amused watching this and honestly I feel like 90% of her relationship with the Snart siblings would just be sass and flirting, like it is now, except she would laugh more, pre-Pit, and smile more, and Leonard would be so annoyed by how much he loved her smile.

HI CE IT’S SO NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU!!!!!!!!! <3 Also I am so sorry, Tumblr is a POS and didn’t even let me know about your Father’s Day message, so buckle up, because I’m answering all three!And oh boy, that baby shower would be something to see. Like first we have Laurel, who may have tried to liquefy Leonard’s brains when she first found out, but now she is 110% behind this and she is determined to be the Best Aunt Ever. And Laurel pulls out all the stops, she brings baby books and educational toys and story books and parenting books (she makes sure to hand these directly to Leonard. Leonard just smirks and pulls out the dog-eared, highlighted, underlined, and annotated copy he has in his jacket pocket) and also some stuffed animals, because I am a firm believer that Laurel was one of those people who slept with her childhood stuffed animal well into her 20s. And Sara is just like, “I really hope this kid gets Len’s brain, or else all these books are going to turn into drool covered chew toys” even tho Sara Lance is a fucking genius who piloted a TIME SHIP through the Time Stream BY HERSELF, like don’t even touch me about Sara’s relationship to her intelligence, I will cry.So then we have Lisa, other Aunt To Be who is just as in love with this baby as Laurel is and ALSO pulls out all the stops, because Lisa is Lisa and this woman comes in with just HEAPS of baby clothes, like Gem is going to have more clothes than Sara and Leonard combined, and just about every fucking shirt or onesie or dress has something snarky written on it, like “I get my charm from my daddy” or “I left the womb for THIS?” or “I may be small, but I am fierce” or Lisa’s personal favorite “My aunt is hotter than yours” (Laurel of course is like, oh gee thanks and grins at Lisa, who considers killing her, but decides that she really likes her instead and that they are now Friends). And Sara is just laughing and sending pictures of her favorites to Mick and studiously ignoring the fact that all of the clothes are obviously stolen, because it’s Lisa, of course they’re stolen.

I feel like Lyla gives Sara a handwritten book called “101 Ways To Raise Kids While Battling Evil” and it’s just full of helpful hints like “There’s always time for a diaper run during a covert op” or “Your crazy sleep schedule from vigilantism will actually be really helpful during the first couple of months. Also, cat naps are your friend”. She also gives Sara a military grade crib that is impervious to crushing or breaking and has built in motion detectors and proximity alerts, as well as legs that will shoot tranquilizer darts if the alarms go off.Thea is a little unsure of what to get, having little to no experience with babies, so she just buys a shit ton of toys, especially the ones she remembers having as a kid. She also buys a boat load of beanie babies, because they’re cute and adorable and Thea totally had a whole room full of them when she was a kid.

Felicity gives Sara the best freakin baby monitor system you will ever see, like it has various screens that can be set up in any room (one totally goes in Mick’s shop) that display the temperature and time and Gem’s basic vitals and it comes with a little tiny drone that totes hovers around Gem and tracks her and sends alerts to phones and computers if she goes outside a certain area.

And Nyssa gives Sara and Gem two things: the first is a medallion meant to be hung over the baby’s crib for blessing of healthy, safety, and a long life. The second is a tiny, dull sword that has a rounded tip. Sara tears up a little at the first one and kind of just shakes her head at the second one, but does so lovingly.And Barry is totally there, because Barry is 100% always invited to every girls night and he’s just one of the girls, no questions asked. And he gives Sara a blank piece of paper. Sara is confused, but then he says to write down/draw her ideal baby room. Sara slowly starts to grin and she does and then zip Barry’s gone and then zip he’s back again and Sara’s phone starts ringing and Len is on the other line asking why the hell he just walked into the spare office and stuck his hand in wet paint, also really Sara, blue and white stripes? A little cliche don’t you think?

CE, you hit my weak spot, like besides Mick being super adorable with little Gem this is LIKE MY ULTIMATE WEAK SPOT. I HAVE HAD THE HEADCANNON THAT LEN IS THE BEST FUCKING BALLROOM DANCER YOU HAVE EVER SEEN FOR FOREVER, LIKE I ADORE THAT THOUGHT SO MUCHI 110% need to see the Legends team at a high end ball, like holy fuck, everyone is dressed to the nines (even Mick, though not even god himself could have gotten a tie on that man), Rip goes off to do some ~important mission nonsense~ and gives the team strict orders to stay there and behave. And of course Ray and Kendra start it, going off and doing a simple little waltz, being adorable golden retriever puppies together and all that, Jax gets snatched up by an eagle-taloned older lady before he has time to pout, Stein is chatting with a few gentlemen to the side, and Mick has gone to find the damn bar (and possibly burn ‘this damn monkey suit’), so it’s just Sara and Len, standing watching their teammates spin across the dance floor. And of course Sara grins at Len and says “Wanna dance, Leonard?” just like she has dozen of other times at dozen of other places, fully prepared to start teasing him like she’s taken to doing, accusing him of being a master thief with two left feet. But he suddenly grabs her hand and spins her towards him and suddenly they’re moving onto the dance floor in a simple, but graceful waltz.And of course Sara is surprised, a little shocked, even, and Leonard is smirking like the smug bastard he is. But then Sara grins, letting her body really start to follow his (it had done it automatically to begin with). They are stunning together, perfectly in sync. Then Sara throws in a few extra steps, a little flip and twist of her legs, just to mess with him. And Leonard raises his eyebrows, but grins and starts to a lead a more complicated pattern, blue eyes locked with hers. Sara matches him easily, never looking away from him. She swears she can feel their hearts beating together, bodies perfectly in sync (she realizes in that moment how common that’s actually become for them)Then the music changes. The waltz turns into a tango and Leonard cocks his head, a silent question. Sara replies by pressing her body against his, feet moving into the tempo of the tango effortlessly. She thinks she feels his heart stutter slightly, but his hands are steady, though his eyes are darker then they were before. Sara doesn’t hold back, throwing everything she knows at him, and Leonard replies in kind. It is like a cross between sparring and sex and Sara is drunk on the headiness of it. They end with a dip so low that Sara is bent nearly to the floor, one leg wrapped firmly around Leonard’s waist, her slitted dress riding so high that she’d be worried about flashing her knives (and other things) to the crowd, but all she can think of is the press of his body (and oh boy, can she feel his body) against her and the heat in his eyes and the feel of his breath on her lips, just millimeters away, so close that if she spoke, they would brush together....

And then something explodes and Mick is setting the buffet table on fire and Sara has to go for her knife instead of a kiss

(But don’t worry, they finish their dance later that night, behind locked doors ;) )
