Summary
Charlie presses in closer. Zari can feel how warm she is, even with the inch or so of space Charlie is carefully maintaining between them. “If you really want this, I need to hear you say it.”
Damn her. Zari grits her teeth, and finally manages to whisper, “I want you to make me feel something real. Something dangerous. Something I’m not allowed to want.”
“Something dangerous.” Charlie pushes away from the wall with a satisfied smirk. “Yeah. I can do that.”

Summary
Moving makes metal bite into Lisa's wrists. Cuffs, then. They’re the only hard thing she can feel; otherwise, there’s only buoyant nothingness. She tries to open her eyes to see where she is, only to encounter blackness. There’s nothing obscuring her vision; she’d feel it if there was. Wherever she is, it’s in utter darkness.
“Hey!” She lets out a shout so loud she hurts her own head. It reverberates back and forth as though the space she’s in is fairly small, and likely tiled (or maybe metal). That’s information she can work with. Anything to give herself an advantage... “What kind of pervert keeps their captive chained up in a bathtub?”
From somewhere in the darkness, there’s a giggle. “There she is. Big bad Lisa Snart, almost smart enough to put two and two together, never smart enough to do anything with it.”

Summary
Lita has a red folder clutched to her chest. She’s standing in one place while she sheds her coat, still bouncing idly on the balls of her feet. Her eyes dart immediately to Jerrie. “Got the results! Not before damn time, either.”
Jerrie squeaks and flaps her hands. Results! Results for her Lita! Lita has been so patient, trying to get diagnosed for ADHD, but it’s been a process in the order of a few months. “What did they say? Could they see what was right in front of their eyes?”
Lita launches herself around the side of the couch and holds out her arms. “They could! Hug me, I got my diagnosis!”

Summary

Fourteen years and three days since he felt his soulmark disappear in a blaze of excruciating pain. The spot where it once was, on the meat of Leo’s left arm, is still scarred like a burn.
Fourteen years and three days, and he suddenly finds a new soulmark on the back of his hand.

Summary
Iris arrives at the club in lace. This same club has seen her in leather many times before, dominating eager kinksters with cool orders and a firm hand. It’s never seen her wide-eyed and subby-soft—at least, not until last week, when, after much negotiation, her switchy partner put her on her knees. She’d liked that tremendously. So had Mick’s friend Charlie, who, to Iris’s surprise, is another regular at the club, and an intoxicating Domme.

Summary
“That’s why you have me, love,” he purrs. “To make sure you relax. Mind magnet, love.” In the strictest sense of the trigger, he doesn’t need to snap his fingers, but he does anyway. That’s what David’s used to. They’ve found, by a lot of trial and error, that he responds best if as many cues are consistent as possible.
He knows it’s working when David grabs his right wrist with his left hand. “That’s what you were up to,” he hisses. “Get me out in public and drop me.”
“I’m not going to drop you.” Hartley takes a sip from his club soda, all exaggerated, wide-eyed innocence. “You’re going to drop yourself for me, in front of all these people.”

Summary
“And we can always play it up like we’ve just gotten married.” Nora wishes she had a brain-to-mouth filter. (Not that Lia has one either.) “We’ll either get great rates or conned. Possibly both in the same building, if we’re very lucky.”
Lia tosses her head back and laughs. “Fake married to get a new apartment? You know what, I’ll go for that. It’s the closest I’ll ever get to married, so let’s play it up, make it fun.”
Or, Nora has no brain-to-mouth filter. It ends up getting her an apartment and a partner, so it works out all right.

Summary
Leonard Snart is perfectly satisfied with his enemies-with-benefits arrangement with the Flash. It lets him feel back at the top of his game after emerging from the Oculus - and, even better, it's feelings-free.
Leonard Snart is perfectly satisfied. He just hates to be kept a secret.
Things get even more complicated when, upon setting up a confrontation, there's interference from both the Oculus and another earth, in the form of one Leo Snart. In the end, despite himself, Leonard might be thankful for both of those things.

Summary
Mark’s been coming down to the docks since he was a wild teenager getting into trouble. It’s taken on a new meaning now that he’s got powers—more contemplative, thoughtful. It’s still a way to get into trouble, though.
The water is the perfect way to test his new powers. In the past, he’s mostly focused on making waves. This time, he dares to stir up a palm-sized hurricane that churns and swirls above his hand. He’s so focused on the mini hurricane that he almost doesn’t notice the big, curious black eyes watching him from the water.

Summary
“I don’t know what about you is going to draw the most attention.” Iris’s voice is warm with amusement. Leonard isn’t looking at her, but he can picture the way she props her shoulder against the door when she’s in the mood to watch him. “The fact that everyone’s going to know you’re a criminal, even if Barry erased your record, or the fact that you’re going to show up looking like that."

Summary
When calls start pouring in about two simultaneous meta attacks, David just rolls his eyes. So the Rogues are at it again. They figure, rightly, that the Flash can’t be in two places at once; no doubt they’re hoping CCPD will be too slow to respond to whichever scene the Flash isn’t at. Unfortunately for them, they picked a slow day. Most of CCPD is delighted to leap into action; it beats sitting around doing paperwork.
Upon arriving at the scene, David finds a happily humming security guard staring into space. With a sigh, he dons noise-canceling headphones and braves the bank. Hartley Rathaway, again. This is the fifth time in a month.
By now, they have a routine. David knows Hartley isn’t actually here for the money; he’s here because he’s bored. They’ll arrest him, he’ll tolerate being put in a holding cell, and tomorrow David will find that cell empty because Hartley will have managed to hypnotize his way free, again. On a busier day, David would simply deny him the attention and let him abscond back to whatever Rogue hiding place he’s using this week. Today, because he’s also bored, he’ll allow it.

Summary
Jay Garrick has battled monsters in his day. He has faced the embodiment of the god of speed and found out it was an embittered time remnant of one of his dear friends. He has willingly consigned himself to a prison in the heart of the beloved—but terrifying—source of his powers. He has felt those powers falter and fail. And somehow, none of that quite compares to the courage it takes to ask Joan Williams on a date.

Summary
The first few times Lisa asked to sub for Iris again were a surprise. This time, when she shows up at Iris’s apartment, Iris has to fight down the urge to smirk. Lisa doesn’t even break in the way she did last time—she knocks like a good girl. The moment Iris answers the door, Lisa blurts, “I want more of the thing. You making my head quiet. Maybe…not as hard.” Her eyes flit away and she lowers her chin slightly.
She guides her girl inside and closes the door behind her. Whatever Lisa wants, she won’t want to risk someone in the hallway overhearing. Iris takes a gamble and checks, “You want something soft, my good girl? You want me to take care of you?”

Summary
“What exactly do you think you’re doing?” Iris demands in her most imperious voice.
Lisa rolls to her feet and saunters closer to her. “I want more of what we did last time,” she purrs. Now, having seen the frightened sub under her mask, Iris almost pities her. Lisa is terrified of what she wants, but she’s asking for it anyway. This is the only way she can get the words out. “But I want a little more spice this time. Last time was too quiet. You’re going to have to earn me this time.”

Summary
“What are you doing?” Carver’s voice, slicing through the air like a whipcrack, is unmistakably real. Iris struggles to lift her head. This is her first glimpse of Carver since he drugged her. He’s changed from his formal party attire into a long robe. The book in his hands is ancient, or at least made to look that way. A sheath at his side catches the firelight exactly like the hilt of the dagger in Iris’s chest. Bastard. “I summoned you, you attend to me!”
Real. Oh gods, the man kneeling at Iris’s side is real. His hand on her chest, pulling the knife free and eliciting no gush of blood, is real. His voice, more powerful than Carver’s and infinitely colder, is real. “You summoned me? I think not. Is it your blood in this circle? Is it your mind giving me form?”
Carver stammers. The man talks over him, still coldly furious. “I think not. She summoned me.”

Summary
It’s not yet gone a month since Francine left rehab—not for home, but for places unknown. It’s not yet been a week since Joe decided he couldn’t bear the shame, and couldn’t make Iris bear the knowledge that her mother abandoned her, and started spreading the lie that Francine died. That may have been the hardest decision he’s ever made.
He doesn’t expect company. Doesn’t really want it while he’s trying to sort out how to feel. But that doesn’t mean he can leave a knock at the door unanswered. He’s grieving, not rude.
“Yeah?” So maybe he’s a little curt when he opens the door. All his wariness vanishes when he sees Henry Allen on his porch, carrying an insulated bag.

Summary
Barry wiggles. His tail-plug sways back and forth, the soft faux-fur brushing over the backs of his thighs. It’s just so puppyish that he can’t help doing it again and again, until he’s so giddy from pupspace that he almost can’t remember why he was wiggling in the first place. When he remembers, he starts wiggling all over again. His Master is almost home! He gets to surprise his Master for his birthday! Barry made him a nice cream pie with chocolate and Irish cream, and he’ll be a good puppy and kneel by his Master’s chair while Master eats, and they can have playtime afterward!

Summary
“Hello, gorgeous.” Lisa turns on the charm the moment she opens the door. The woman on the other side just gapes at her, wild-eyed and panting. There’s a smear of soot on her cheek, and she’s favoring her right leg. Whatever’s chasing her—and Lisa is convinced something must be—it got close enough to singe.
“You’re Lisa Snart,” the woman blurts. “Please, I won’t trouble you long. I just need a place to lay low for tonight. Please.”

Summary
Whoever says opposites attract is, annoyingly, right. It’s truer for Leonard than for most people. Of course there’s Mick, the fire to his ice, but that’s complicated. So complicated, in fact, that Leonard buries those feelings in kink. Ironically, this has found him yet another fiery partner, in the form of a novice Dom he’s taken under his wing. If Mick is a wildfire, quick-burning and hard to control, this novice Dom is a blowtorch: controlled and careful, but intense enough to scorch.
In their recent scenes together, Leonard has shifted from being the Dom in charge, with Ray as his subordinate, to being a quieter co-Dom. It gives him an excellent vantage to watch Ray’s growing confidence. Unfortunately, it also brings quiet thoughts about how tempting it would be to let Ray give him orders.

Summary
Leonard loves that they’re not going to know who their baby’s father is. After deciding they all want a baby, they’d taken great care to be sure they wouldn’t know for sure. (He can’t exactly call it ‘great pains’ when it was so damn pleasurable.) Ali says it’ll keep somebody from feeling left out—not that there’s any risk of that. Every step of the way, from the pregnancy test to the first barely-visible rounding of Ali’s belly, both Leonard and Mick are beside themselves with delight.
With all that said, it makes choosing the birthing arrangement a bit of a pain in the ass.
