#ALSO SORRY I TOOK FOREVER i wuv u )

[frosty-the-killer-doll]

just finished reading the last chapter of flirting with him is like, so sorry it took forever, and i want to tell you i love it and it's full of things i'm so intrigued and surprised by and in love with.

the metaphors are perfect, the Olivibe is perfect, and oh that kiss! now i also am surprisingly enamored by the dynamic between Cisco, Ronnie and Savitar, i'll admit, i'm weak like that and you're good like that. and the three co-leaders is so good too, it feels like such a natural and easy solution.

YIPPEE i was hoping you'd comment or send me an ask when u read it :]

honestly, i never would've gotten the barriscowest co-leaders idea without lace/allison being very helpful in the reblogs of my scream for help about kamilla hwang characterization. it made me realize how much room to grow cisco still had in central city, and when i started playing with how he could level up without leaving, the idea seemed so obvious, especially with lace pointing out cisco's leadership skills, LIKE. team flash is crowded canon-wise, but it's turned up to 100 in the au, with all the walking dead and whatnot, so really more official team flash leaders just makes sense!

i loved writing the olivibe kiss, i liked getting to have them talk and laugh and joke inbetween it, cuz they didn't have that the last time they kissed but, y'know, cisco's a talker and oliver's a slut! it just makes sense

and with ronnie and savitar, i wanted to give closure to the points brought up in last chapter; savi being reformed and ronnie being alive. i just like being able to give them happy endings, surrounded by people they love and respect that love and respect them, too... gah, i just wuv the last chapter of the olivibe fic and i'm glad everyone else enjoyed it, too !!!! c':

pre-game 2, inside hoe county 7,8,9 and 11!!!

you the only one i trust in this binch of an earth [insert that pic of the crying cat but with heart emojis all around]

also WOW this got super long i am extremely sorry i just have no filter when it comes to Cata i’m gonna eat an entire shoe

2. Relationship with Pratt, Hudson, and Whitehorse?

thank u for enabling me to talk about the squad

Whitehorse feels like her very tired second dad who has to like put up with her antics from time to time but he is very caring towards her from the moment she arrives. She was lowkey afraid of joining the Sheriff’s Department because she figured they were already like a family and she would feel a bit like an outsider but since she was the rookie and the baby, Whitehorse kind of took her under his wing jfdkhfdj she came to appreciate him a lot and probably called him dad on more than one occasion.

Hudson was like…the big sister figure she never had? Her strong personality was also something that really drew Cata in so she may have had a bit of a slight crush when she first joined. I feel like Joey is kind of the more level headed one in the squad so she always made sure Cata didn’t get in much trouble and sometimes that meant calling her out and stopping her before she did something stupid. After a while they became friends and occassionally had a couple drinks together after work!

Pratt is her best frend… I already rambled a bit about their relationship because I’m oddly invested in it fhdskh so to make it short they bonded after being sent on patrol together on her first week and they have a very close relationship which annoys everyone because of their occasional shenanigans at the station which mostly consist in annoying banter, throwing paper balls and lil paper planes at each other across the room (sometimes hitting other people in the process), tuning to the radio and humming and whistling off-tune and constant playful teasing even during serious meetings. Pratt was also Cata’s first actual friend in the county so they ended up hanging out a whole lot.

7. Did they have time to find romance amidst the chaos? How did they do it?

She did….she fell in wuv with the resident sexy outlaw Charlemagne Victor Boshaw IV…. It was honestly not planned because Cata never really had much luck in terms of romance so she kinda tossed aside the possibility BUT things changed babeys. Anyway they obviously clicked together super fast because hello single braincell people unite!! Cata rolled into the trailer park and saw that guy blasting disco music at full volume and was like guess I gotta marry him now! 

All jokes aside, he proved to be like a support pillar to her after everything that she had to endure so she was forever thankful for it! Kind of like he made her forget about how fucked up everything was and how he reminded her to sleep and rest and take some time to care after herself from time to time and also subconsciously took her mind off stuff whenever he shared one of his colourful life stories. And Cata is very fun to have around so Sharky probably also had the time of his life hanging out with her and just idk having a new friend who liked him enough to bring him along anytime she could y’know? Since they are also both extremely open with their feelings they just find out they are super confident around each other almost from the get go so it’s just very easy to talk about stuff and open up and knowing the other person won’t judge them.

8. Feelings about Joseph?

She doesn’t trust him one bit and she doesn’t really buy into the whole “I heard a voice” story, she just thinks he’s taking advantage of people and that he’s not making any good. She does however kinda agree with him on the whole collapse thing? Like not in a “the apocalypse is gonna come NOW” but like…she does believe things are very fragile and could go to shit at any moment now. She just didn’t expect it to happen so soon or at all fhdsfs

9. Feelings about the other Seeds?

John: she absolutely can’t stand him fksdjfhs he manages to get on her nerves and for that he deserves an actual award. I think the reason she just…dislikes him so much is that he is the only one who managed to really touch a nerve and like…get into very deep issues she has that she would rather just not think about?  Like the whole “you need to confess your sins, atone, cleanse and purify yourself” thing was just like turning the knife a little and it really managed to upset her even though John probably didn’t exactly know why. It also didn’t help being dragged inside the bunker the first time and seeing Hudson all tied up and being unable to help her, it really made her blood boil.

Faith: she has very complicated feelings towards her because on one hand Cata knows she is manipulative and cannot be trusted and on the other hand she kind of…sees parts of her past self on Faith? When she told her “I was seventeen, I was just a child” it kind of made her stop right on her tracks and think a lot? Like sure maybe Faith was lying but if she wasn’t then perhaps things could have been different for her had he had the chance to make different choices? At the end of the day Cata knows she has to stop her but I think it’s kind of bittersweet in a way.

Jacob: by far the one she feels more strongly about, for better or for worse. Coming from a military family herself she is pretty familiar with PTSD and the troubles that come with it. She has seen her father and older brothers come back from their destinations and how sometimes they just weren’t the same people that left, so she kind of...understands how Jacob struggled with it? I wouldn’t say she feels sorry but she does wonder what would have happened had he had the chance to continue with therapy and getting help. If he would have been a different man, if things could have been different for him. At the same time it kind of scares him? because she can’t help but wonder if something similar could have happened to one of her brothers, if it could still happen to them, and that....kind of terrifies her. But any feelings of “sympathy” she might have had towards him were like...absolutely discarded after seeing Pratt again because looking at him broke her heart a lot, especially because she feels super guilty from leaving him behind and not being able to help him until the end.

11. Which canon ending did they choose in-game, and would you have changed the ending at all?

She chose the resist ending because she is too damn stubborn and prideful to back down and if she already took down half the cult she might as well finish the job. I would have obviously changed the ending so that she could have gone back to “normal” with no nuclear apocalypse OR at least share the bunker with Sharky and her other friends so she didn’t have to spend the next 17 years together with Father Joe and his greasy manbun!
