Honestly, I feel like Eobard needs to get his shit straight. Maybe it's the writers messing up, it's always the writers but usually he gets all sentimental and like "Oh my baby boy🥺😭" when he sees Cisco. "I never wanted to hurt you 👉👈😔💔💔💔" type shit starts to leave his mouth. When I see this, this is usually Tom's version of Eo.
In Season 5 he apologizes to Cisco for shoving his hand through Cisco's chest.
Now, Season 6, Eobard goes bat-shit crazy trying to kill Cisco on fucking sight looking hot asf while doing so I might add🔥🔥🔥
Back to the point, since S1, we've seen that Cisco had the strongest relationship with Eobard. All encounters with Eo afterwards always led to Cisco into depression and feelings of betrayal, while Eo just felt like a shitty person he is bc he tried to kill his best friend, but I love my murder puppy, SUE ME
I can't help, but feel like something happed in the post-crisis timeline that lead to Eobard being so violent towards Cisco because come on, the only person he's ever been violent towards is Barry.
Also, with the Wellses in his head as Nash, I feel like Harry expressed a few of his thoughts to EoNash about Cisco, or maybe Eo could see Harry's memories like he could see Nash's. He saw how close they were and that led to Eo bringing up Harry when he was playing his charade as Nash. He knew. Eo knew that he could get a reaction out of Cisco when mentioning Cisco. This just shows that Eo is still willing to do whatever it takes to have Cisco's attention on him, be it good or bad. And now, it feels like a game of cat and mouse between the two.
Sorry, I feel like I had to get this out. I've been thinking about it for a while and it was my first thought waking up...
