-SQUUUUUUUIIIIIIISH- Don't you just wish you were him?

Hehe! A little redraw of the Headlock Selfie Meme. I saw it and was immediately like, "This is them."

(You just know they're both showing off here. Also Match definitely helped Thad stick those stickers on his phone case.)

#17. When they find a time machine, where do they go?

//Ooo! That's a good question!

Personally, I feel like Thad would not be stoked to time travel again due to y'know Pres. Thawne, science police, his own general wariness, and probably running into other Thawnes, but if they had to/if he was up to it, I think they would jump around anywhere post the early 31st Century. (Or just like very briefly the 31st Century despite it's political climate cause he was created there. I'll go into why below.)

I don't think the past really has any intrigue for either of them given their upbringing as clones first, but I do think Thad would like to show Match a bit of the period that had a part of his upbringing from a sentimental stand point just wanting to share a part of himself with Match.

He doesn't want to touch the 31st Century that he knows with a 10-yard pole, but they could see it post, like Pres. Thawne, or something.

Summary:

Match and Thad’s lives intersect once more after so many years. They’ve gone through so much and now together again they find comfort in each other and that things have changed.

Excerpt:

How long had they been like this? Thad wondered. Bare limbs splayed from beneath the blanket, sharing in each other’s warmth, Match’s arm wrapped around him, his head pressed to Match’s chest listening to the other’s heart beat strong and solid in his ear as the seconds of the early morning passed them by. They looked like some damnable couple.  ‘We’re not.’ Thad has to to remind himself and wonders what Match thinks when he sees that they’re close together like this. In his mind, this situation was a mutual agreement, one silently made, and nothing more. It was temporary. He reminds himself. A distraction from the loneliness and the confounding world they were trying to make sense of. Heroes and villains came and went. Death wasn’t always permanent in their world, but it didn’t hurt any less. People changed sides too. Life, death, revival, ruination, redemption, and…limbo. It was their complicated form of normalcy. It was too tiring to consider, and too much to worry about when it came to semantics. They had just been happy to see one another when their paths had finally crossed again. Thad had never considered the possibility. It was a habit of his to not entertain hope or hold onto the idea of a permanent happiness. It never was for him after all. He had to accept that. Match shifted at his side and Thad couldn't help but let out a sigh. For now they had settled for a day by day approach. It was easier that way. Less to think about, and for a mind that went a mile a minute like Thad’s, it was better that way. Slipping from the sheets and from Match’s grasp and the warmth of the bed Thad began another day. He didn't want to think about the end just yet.

Ship It!!!!!

What made you ship it? Clone4Clone and their canon dynamic. They did have a friendship and both know what it is like to be copies of someone else, copies that were made to be their SUPERIOR and to replace them. They GET each other.

What are your favorite things about the ship? I like the idea of them both getting together because of their solidarity and then it grows into something more, something deeper and their wrath at their copies changes to grief and then healing as they evolve into individual people that are removed from those copies as their goals change. For better or worse. Maybe Thad just wants to kill Bart and it is the only way to heal, maybe Match doesn't think killing Kon will do anything, maybe they both agree to just fade into the background forever and live as two undocumented boys that with cash for everything. It's also hilarious to me if Thad approaches Bart one day to make some sort of amends and sees that he is dating Kon and he just... has a fit... bc how did THAT happen, Bart can't date his boyfriend's progenitor! NO. FUCK. And he fights him anyway.
