Okay, Hear Me Out: Wally's Best Snack Discovery
Okay, hear me out. Wally West—known for his disastrous and unholy food combos—finally meets someone who completely changes his entire snack game. Enter Ro, a 16-year-old Bavarian girl who’s in the US with her class because the bus broke down. She’s there with her all-girls business school class from Munich, and she couldn’t care less about the whole situation. She’s just chill, drinking her coffee with almond milk and three sugars, eating buttered tuna bread with veggies on the side.
Now, I know what you're thinking. Buttered tuna bread? With veggies? Yes. That’s a real thing. It’s simple, it’s satisfying, and guess what? Wally LOVES it. Because after all, butter, bread, and tuna? That’s good for your body, right?
The Discovery That Changed Wally’s Snack Game
So, Wally, being Wally, sees her eating this bread-and-tuna masterpiece and is like, “What the hell is that?” And she’s just all chill, not giving a crap about anyone's judgment. She takes a bite, shrugs, and says, “It’s lunch. What’s the issue?” Meanwhile, her classmates are making disgusted faces because they can’t comprehend this culinary genius. I mean, tuna on bread? That’s sacrilege to them, right?
But Wally? Wally’s already swooning. He doesn't care what others think, he’s already taking a bite. At first, it’s weird. But then? It hits him. It’s perfect. The butter and tuna combo? Why has he never thought of this? The veggies on the side? Genius.
From then on, this becomes Wally’s snack of choice in front of everyone. No more ridiculous sugary energy drinks with ramen or whatever strange thing he thought would fuel him. Nope. Buttered tuna bread it is. Every time he’s around the team, that's his snack of choice.
You know what, though? I believe this girl is the real reason Wally is allowed to eat around his team in the Young Justice League. They’d all be used to his weird snack combos by now, and maybe—just maybe—they secretly find some of them kind of tasty. Like, there are definitely moments where Wally’s culinary choices look like disaster, but somehow, the flavor hits right. (I mean, who can say no to something that feels like salty dough? And yes, I used to play with Play-Doh as a kid and... look, we’ve all tasted that weird salty dough and chemicals and rust combo. Don't judge me. It tasted like rust but also tasted like blood when I accidentally cut myself as a kid. Kinda gross but weirdly tasty. Anyone else?)
Ro, The German Girl Who Changed Wally’s Life
Now, back to Ro. She’s a whole vibe, y’all. I mean, her coffee is half her personality: it’s almond milk, three sugars—she’s basically a caffeine-powered machine, and we all know that gives her the kind of energy to be absolutely chill about the whole situation. Her classmates are trying to figure out why they’re stuck here in the middle of nowhere, and Ro’s just like, “Whatever. We’ve all been through worse. It’s fine.”
She tells Wally she’s named after a Swedish book about a robber’s daughter, and she’s got this surprising calmness to her that makes Wally—who’s always going 100 miles per hour—slow down for once. She doesn’t waste words. She’s straight to the point. When she says she doesn’t care if they talk again after this, she means it. They’re likely never going to meet again. They’re strangers, but they bond over food, and sometimes that’s all you need to know about someone.
She casually says her name’s Swedish but too hard for native English speakers to pronounce, so she just goes by Ro. But, hey—guess her real name? I dare you.
Wally, Ro, and Their Culinary Bond
From that day on, Wally starts really liking this “tuna bread” combo. Not just because it’s delicious, but because Ro introduced him to it. It’s low-maintenance, easy to make, and kind of like the embodiment of Ro herself: simple, but effective. It’s real, it’s good for your body, and sometimes, that’s all you need.
And I bet, after meeting Ro, Wally’s diet starts to take a turn. Sure, he’ll still throw together some chaotic meals, but the tuna bread? That’s now his go-to. He loves that buttery, salty combination—and you can bet he’ll keep making it in front of the team. He’ll make weird combos, sure, but Ro’s snack is his baseline now.
And Then, There’s Wally the Flirt
Wally being Wally? He definitely gets Ro’s number. Because 1) He’s a huge flirt. 2) She’s cool as hell. 3) She’s all about making friends and exchanging recipes. After all, she’s lived in Bavaria and knows tons of deliciously simple combos that can make even a speedster’s stomach happy. Like, soft pretzels cut open with butter and chili salami, or liverspread on black bread—she calls it real bread, not toast (and honestly? She’s right).
But here’s the real kicker: Wally’s so taken by her culinary prowess, he just starts imagining all the things she could teach him. She’s got these really good recipes, and he wants to learn, even if it’s just for the fun of it. He’s already thinking about the next time they meet, where he’s probably going to get some new ideas for his snacks that’ll make his teammates raise an eyebrow or two.
