And now you don't have to tell everyone the villainous Shade got you an apartment!
I suppose I should thank you, but... let's be quite honest. I'm not exactly concerned with my credit.

No? Unless I was somehow so inebriated I missed it. Did you?
[ but the morning of Fanport, Shade is -1 hat and +1 note from Hime slipped underneath his door ]
Your hat is being held hostage! Come to the Fanport convention and MAYBE you'll eventually get it back.

As a reformed supervillain, I find that question insulting, I'll have you know.
How far do you want to go? I'd suggest avoiding space, it may be a touch droll.
I got ported out for a day? Things happened. A lot of things. I'm not sure I want to talk about it. I also don't want to talk to Wally or Bart about Flash things. But I want to talk about Flash things that possibly don't involve me and just involve Jay. Or just nice stories about how I saved the day.
Plus, honestly you're older, you knew/know Jay and I'm at this point in the market for vague mentor figures or proxies of mentor figures. Wally and Bart are younger than me and it's still awkward asking them things. But that's not the point, the point is that I'd like to talk to you in person.
Please.

[ He knows who it is, immediately. There are only so many Flashes it can be, and if he's asking about Jay -- then perhaps he knows about him now? He texts back, but Shade texts like an old person, so it's slow. ]
I'm going to assume this is the good Mr. Allen, yes? Not Bart, of course. I take it you know who Jay is now? You would be correct on most points there.
[ And teaching heroes is what he does...decently? Starman was a success, at least. And he suspected he would have a hand in the Starman of the next millennium, as well -- if what Jack told him was true. ]
We can meet in person, any restaurants you prefer? Other than a chain with massive portions?

No hard feelings about the tophat, I hope?

I suppose there are worse crimes, yes.

[ Guess who's bored and flipping through his supervillain Rolodex! 'Sup. ]
So hey, what do you do for fun around here, anyway? Ooh, and I'm assuming you've thoroughly wined and dined our pal the Flash by now. So to speak. Or maybe literally, I dunno.

You'd be correct, although there was a bit less wining, and a bit more dining, if I'm honest.
[ He doesn't say that it's really Barry Allen he took out to eat, of course. That's the line Shade doesn't cross.
He paused, as if he were considering. ]
Honestly? I've spent much of my time exploring the differences in our world and this, reading their literature -- particularly anything after the 80s, and...well -- perhaps serving as someone to provide advice, from time to time.
Are you that bored?

Hey, Mr. Swift! Nice weather we're having for October, ain't it?
But you know how crazy unpredictable fall can get, don'tcha? It's probably gonna be real chilly soon, so I was thinking...I got this haunted house Halloween party I wanna have and our place would be a great spot to host it!
...you don't mind, do you?

It could be...feasible.
Would you need food? [ Pls tell him he can cook... ]

do you know how to make coffee? Or lattes?
Well, of course I do! You should hardly expect otherwise.
I'm sorry I only text you when I get ported out. We should talk more outside of that, but if you are not busy, which I'm hoping you're not...I totally have something to tell you in person.
Of the Jay variety. My Jay. The Flash with the Hermes hat?
:D
[ Jesus Barry, no. ]

[ Outside Shade's doorstep on Christmas Day is a slightly messily wrapped package containing a fancy, Victorian goth-y looking apron (which was hard to find without settling for something really feminine!) and a gift certificate to the nicest restaurant in Heropa that Cisco could both afford and actually ask for a gift certificate from without being snubbed by the employees.
Attached is a card with a happy penguin on it, which inside reads "For the next time you decide to cook us all dinner! Merry Christmas!" in messy handwriting, along with Cisco's signature. ]

Not another lease, I hope?
Anything for you, Flash.

Yes, yes, Dorian, the world is ending.
[ Well, he's a little worried. ]
What happened?

Who was in charge of your food education? That's cheese and pickles, Jay. To put it simply.
I feel as if I should intervene, before you get into real trouble.

Okay so this is so awkward…………………….i really hope you’re not gonna go over this thing with like, a grammatical fine-toothed comb or something. HOW MANY LETTERS DO YOU EVEN GET DUDE??? Actually I don’t even know who else you’re friends with. Besides Dorian. (stop being friends with him)
Look I just wanted to make sure this was said, just in case I never get to say it and. I kind of don’t WANT to say it because it makes me feel bad, but I really want you to know it so I figured I should say it.
Okay are you ready?
I’m gonna say it now.
…write it, I’m gonna write it.
Okay.
Uncle Barry is my mentor and my hero, and he’s given me so much in my whole life and my career and everything. I’ll never be able to thank him enough for everything he’s done, but
I know I always gave you attitude when you called me the Flash, but I gotta say that I never felt more like a superhero than when you did.
That’s it.
Thanks for letting me talk to you about stuff and. If it wasn’t for you then me and Rob might not even be friends again. And thanks for always just ASSUMING I could do whatever I had to do, just because I am who I am.
I wish you didn’t look like a statue when you get hugs, even though it was kind of funny. How long has it been since you got hugged, man? God. Go out and hug some people or something. If you’re not gonna kick Dorian to the curb, get him to hug you for god’s sake. You’re still at least mostly human, humans need that stuff. go steal some hugs if it makes you feel cooler
Sorry that you’re bored and that I wasn’t always enough of a Flash to keep you interested. I’ll work on that so if I ever run into the you back in my world, I’ll make sure he’s got plenty to do. One day I’ll figure out how to trump you for real and then things’ll get fun, right? Maybe I’ll come back one HELL of a superhero and then you can get all smug at me. I’d be okay with that.
Thanks
For everything.

[Shade might be at work or home when the invitation comes. But rather than any regular ol' mail handler, this one is a little different. The doorbell rings, or a slow, insistent knock lets out. Whenever Shade does answer, he will find dear Sally standing before him, a knowing smile on blood red lips. She holds out a golden envelope with Shade's name handwritten in careful, precise lettering, handing it over with that smile still in place.
And with that she turns, leaving Shade with his invite. By the time he looks at what's in hand and back up to say something to Sally, though, she's vanished, leaving only the scent of cigarettes in her wake.]

Shade you busy?
Me and cold need a quick getaway
I'll owe you a favor
