@nevertxldme || plotted for a starter
『 ⏰ 』 Finding people who are capable of being a part of a legendary team who will actually say YES is actually harder than you would think. Rip at first thought people would jump at the idea of time travelling and saving the future, but he was starting to learn the hard way that they were a lot harder to convince.
He was hoping that Patty Spivot would be different. It did help that she was at a part of her life where she was separating herself from a life that she’d grown to have in Central City... and maybe it was a bit manipulative of him to show up at a time when she’s her most vulnerable, but this was the best time to convince her. She probably would want some time to clear her head from her mishap with Barry Allen, and so he awaited in his seat as the Flash himself made his way to talk to her.
It was always interesting watching a scene play out when you already knew how it would end... like watching a movie that you’ve seen a million times. He wished that he could root for her and Barry Allen to get back together---they seemed like a perfect match, in his opinion---but that would be all for not because this is how it would always turn out.
Once the detective was alone again, he stood up from his seat and walked over to her. “Is this seat taken?” he asked with a gentle smile.
