@needmybarryallen liked your post “Starter Call: “CW” Verse”
“Grandpa!” She wasn’t supposed to be blurting stuff out like that, and she wasn’t supposed to be using her powers until she found Barry, but when Irey saw Joe all inhibitions leapt out the window and the young speedster found herself speeding over to give him a hug.
"Ok, Wally..." Joe holds up an old book, that's at least twenty years old. "Iris and Barry had to go through this, now so do you." Turning to a random page, he starts reading. "There was a guy with four sons. Alan, Ben, Craig and Devin. When he died, everyone wondered what would happen to his collection of Harley Davidsons. And there, on the last page were these instructions..." A pause for dramatic effect. "All Hogs go to Devin."
Wally sat there for a moment, trying not to crack a smile. His Dad, still getting used to thinking and saying that. Clearly his sister and his foster brother had put up with Joe’s humor all of their lives as well as forging their own somehow.
Trying to put up a serious face wasn’t working so wally just shook his head and gave in to the laughter that he had been trying to keep bottled up.
“Seriously? That’s just...Oh man that’s just so bad” Wally let loose with a bold loud laugh.

“Detective West!” Jax said, a grin appearing on his face. “It’s been ages!” The last time Jax had seen Joe, it had been before he and Stein had moved to Pittsburgh, just after accepting his role as Ronnie’s replacement in Firestorm. So much crap had happened since then, Jax really just wanted a normal conversation. No time travel. No immortals. No time limbos. Just down to earth, normal conversation. “What’s up with you?”
Joe stands near Barry, holding an old tattered book. He leafs through it with barely contained glee. "Hey, Barry. I found my old book of dad jokes again. You should probably hide it better next time."
Oh no.
He should have burned the book, by all means. All that earns Joe is a rather awkward and more importantly, forced smile, followed by a slight shrug.
“Guess I really should.” Please don’t read into it again.
[shoutout to needmybarryallen for bringing a greeter thread to a reasonable and natural conclusion while still allowing for the development and growth of our characters and their interactions with one another. Never seen that done before, so kudos.]

Staring at him for a moment, she titled her head, “What instructions?” She asked.
Oh no, what's this? Joe has rediscovered his book of terrible dad jokes and is happily flipping the pages waiting for his daughter to ask what he's reading...
....
“Dad...? Why do you look like you just be given the best gift ever?”

“Can a Central City detective actually arrest someone from Starling?” Z wondered aloud in the back of Detective West’s car. “I mean, seriously, there’s gotta be some sorta jury....juri.....jurisdiction thing here right?” She wiggled her wrists so the chains on the handcuffs jostled around a bit.
“I mean, don’t get me wrong, they’ll cut me loose in the end anyway,” she added hastily.
