Caffeine Fix



Things are finally starting to calm down in Central City. The epidemic is starting to let up, and those affected are on the road to wellness. The antibodies Caitlin developed (and farmed in Cisco) were shared with CCPD first and now the department is regaining its ranks from the previously bedridden.

Barry could probably do with a vacation sometime soon, but with Yamato's help, and short stints at the comm from Cisco and Caitlin, The Flash has seen Central City through the crisis.

With a break in the chaos achieved at last, there's only one way to celebrate. Coffee.

Holding the front door to CC Jitters open, Barry gestures Yamato inside with a flourish.

"And here we are, best cup of coffee in Central City."

It's the typical trendy sort of joint, high-tables with modern stools, couches and overstuffed chairs, and a hipster huddled with their laptop in every semi-dark corner.

The air is fragrant with the smells of fresh-ground roast, and behind the counter an espresso machine sputters under the deft control of a barista, while another woman loads fresh pastries into the bakery case.

"Yeah, let's go, otherwise you're just going to stand there saying it's not so bad while she vivisects me or something," Yamato grumbles. "Lead the way."

Yamato grumbles a little, ducking his head.

"You don't owe me anything, Gramps, c'mon."

Although Yamato will be taking vengeance for getting stabbed with a needle at the earliest opportunity.

"Call me that again and they'll have to use dental records to identify what's left of you," Yamato growls, stepping towards the door. "Make sure to get some rest, okay? The city's back on its feet, you can take a couple of days off."

"It sucks, but even if it didn't, it'd tip everyone off to what my ..." He grimaces, tapping his chest, in a silent indication of 'what my Crest signifies.' "And so far, you're the only person outside my world who knows that."

He shakes his head. "Catch you later, Gramps."

With that done, he steps through the door.
