Hartley content! What are your thoughts on Barry/Hartley? Would you ever pair Hartley with Leonard Snart, say for example in a Rogues safe house situation where they’re enemies-with-benefits (not that I would ever give away my trope preferences, perish the thought). Finally, what are gcau Hartley and Cisco doing RIGHT NOW
(Or, you know, just one of those)
Oh my God, thank you so much for all of them!!!
I have read and enjoyed a few Barry/Hartley fics and I do think they’d be fun!! They do have a lot of potential due to the manipulation through Eowells alone, I think that gives them a lot of reason to bond and confide in each other, plus, you know, Hartley has a thing for the Flash suit, how could he stay professional (bonus points for the universe of the original Flash pilot script where they suit was originally Hartley‘s work. I think something about him having meant his (now ex-)boyfriend to have worn this would have some deeper meaning in a way :))
I am still mad canon never let us have Hartley and Snart interact. I fear they’d have run out of snark if they put those two in the same room, tbh. So yes ABSOLUTELY. I particularly like Hartley and Lisa being besties and as you all know, if you’re gay and your bestie has a sibling, it is your duty to hit on the sibling as much as possible. And I think Snart would be annoyed and say something about jailbait etc etc and once Hartley ever witnesses how Snart looks at Barry he’d be like HEY SO. THAT WAS A FAKE REASON HUH. But I also like the idea of enemies-with-benefits. My mind is too attached to canon to really envision in which way they’d be enemies, but hatesex is always worth it <3
AS TO GCAU HARTMON! I think the most accurate answer is that they’re being inappropriate in the groupchat rn LMAO but also. They’re currently writing up an application for Armando to an acting agency. Because Cisco‘s abuelo has died a few months ago and ever since then Mando has obviously been feeling down and lost his footing (and purpose) and Cisco remembered that Once Upon A Time Mando wanted to become an actor and Hart is like. Gosh dammit yes he’s way too pretty to NOT star in a damn soap opera. It will be his personal mission during his next stay in San Jose (where he is frequently for work nowadays, if you recall) to have Mando go to auditions. Meanwhile the groupchat is discussing the morality of them basically forcing Mando into this. Caitlin and Oliver are very concerned. Linda is cheering them on. Iris and Len have started a betting pool on whether this will explode in their faces. It’s brilliant.
