now this is genocide.

Everything is not what it seems.

Daddy’s home, shitlickers! DOOM PATROL — SEASON 4 DECEMBER 8 2022

Barry had just returned from getting his daily fix of bloodshed, the front of his suit coated in the deep red substance. He knew on his way back to Central it’d blow off mostly though, and if not, he’d simply steal some sleeping fellow’s hose and wash it out. Half of him reminisced on the times he’d wear the blood proudly back on his home earth - loving the terrified looks it got him whenever he stopped for a moment. Needing to stay under the radar had its downsides.

Once he’d gotten the blood off entirely he’d made his way back to Harry’s home, walking inside and closing the door behind him carefully enough that he wouldn’t wake up the other. He made a beeline straight for the fridge - needing to eat something in order to make up the calories he’d burned during his little rendezvous. Jay being here was a significant benefit with how many of the speedster bars were around here - he used to make them by hand and they were... Not the best, to say the least.

As he began to stuff his face, he noticed a shadow casting from a light that’d been turned on, turning to see who’d joined him in the kitchen.

earth-2harrisonwells:

Of course. And is there anything else we can help you with in the meantime? Or would you prefer to have your space?

I honestly can’t think of anything else you could help me with. Offering me a piece of your home seems like a lot already.

[themonsterinred]

What do you think of Harry and Jay?

Jay reminds me a lot of my father - even beyond their shared faces. In a lot of ways it makes me feel like I have my father with me again when he’s around.

Harry will never be Nora, so he isn’t for Jay in my eyes. He’s better than the Joans he tends to end up with, but he’s still an intrusion in my eyes.

[themonsterinred]

earth-2harrisonwells:

Of course, but you don’t have to sleep in S.T.A.R. Labs, Barry. *chuckles* You’re not a fugitive like I was on your Earth. You’re more than welcome in to use the guest bedroom at my place.

If I wouldn’t be intruding on your space, that would be very nice. Might help my back to be on a real bed and not the hospital ones.

[themonsterinred]

Are you enjoying your chat with Hunter? Going to kill him or sway him over to your side?

He could be a very useful asset to me for sure. I’d love to work with him - maybe get him to distract Harry while I whisk Jay away down the road.

therealhunterzolomon:

Needed a break, did you? Is the weight of the world getting a little too heavy for you now? I could always show you a few tricks to lighten the load.

I have no interest in learning from you, Hunter. 

[themonsterinred]

therealhunterzolomon:

…Is there a reason you’re here? Don’t you have an Earth to protect, or has your shining city found a better hero to replace you?

I’m here on a holiday, you could say. Needed to get away for a while so I left the place to Wally and Cisco.

[themonsterinred]

Maybe you could find that mind eraser, that someone made, for if people don't comply. I think I heard Cisco made something that but don't take my word to heart.

Everyone back on Prime thinks I’m the real deal too, so that might actually work. Wouldn’t be hard to snag it from the pipsqueak - provided he doesn’t vibe me.

[themonsterinred]

What is your plan exactly? Sleeping in a pretty rad lab, like S.T.A.R., on a different Earth sounds like a super fun plan as it is.

My plan is to get my parents back, and have all people of this Earth bow to me as their king. Patience is a virtue, though, so I’m using a little case of mistaken identity to pull my enemies closer.

[themonsterinred]

You're gonna regret messing with Harry! He and Jay will kick your butt so bad!

Seems the professor and not-daddy dearest have a fan. Don’t worry little gray - I don’t plan on touching a hair on Harry’s head. Provided he remains blissfully unaware of my intentions, of course.

[themonsterinred]

therealhunterzolomon:

I just haven’t had the opportunity to whip the public up into a frenzy like I used to…but that doesn’t mean I still can’t bite. Be a good little boy, hot shot, and run along now.

For everyone’s sake, I hope you never get the opportunity.

[themonsterinred]

I'm gonna tell Harry who you really are!

As my dear old uncle used to say before he drank himself to the grave, snitches get stitches. So I’d watch what you’re saying, gray - never know what kind of trouble a statement like that will get you into.

[themonsterinred]

earth-2harrisonwells:

I know it can be hard to admit when you need time to yourself, so I’m glad you’ve decided to take a step back and recuperate. As always, S.T.A.R. Labs is completely open to you. Jay and I will help you any way we can, should you require anything.

I actually wanted to ask if you had a spare bed in the lab. I don’t really have a place to sleep for the time being.

[themonsterinred]

earth-2harrisonwells:

I wasn’t expecting to see you back so soon, but welcome, Barry. How’s the rest of the Team on Earth 1 doing?

They’re making do. Iris and I split, so I’ve decided to come over here and take some time to myself. Escape some responsibilities, I guess.

[themonsterinred]

Why don't you just give him what he wants? Race him and then watch his jay drop when you win?

I would, but considering how my temper can get, I’d rather not. Keep the little charade going until I get what I want.

[themonsterinred]

therealhunterzolomon:

Then scram, kid. This is your one and only warning…

Here I thought you might’ve changed, considering Earth-2 is doing much better since the last time I was here.
