—AN INTRO TO MY (THE) FLASH REALITY

My name is Victoria Verona Valencia. I grew up in Gotham City. My parents, Arturo and Eva Valencia, were wealthy and a part of the elite society. They were also friends with the Wayne family. One night, when my parents and the Wayne family went out to watch the opera, they were held up by a mugger who shot my parents, and Thomas and Martha Wayne. Each of our parents died, making the two of us orphans.

Alfred got custody of Bruce and I since both sets of parents trusted him. Bruce was seven years older than me, so I was like his little sister. Years later, he became Batman and after some pleading, he agreed to train me. I became the Red Cardinal— Batman’s first sidekick when I was fourteen years old and he was twenty-one.

A year later, I met a boy named Richard “Dick” Grayson at Gotham Academy. Around that time, Bruce had adopted him and he became Robin, Batman’s second sidekick. We were best friends and even dated for a while.

When I graduated high school, I decided to retire as the Red Cardinal and to go to college. However, this time I would be in a different city. Starling City to be exact. Thankfully, I knew a couple people — Oliver queen, Tommy Merlyn, and Thea queen. More like the Queen family and Malcolm Merlyn (Tommy’s father), but I’d always been closer to Oliver, Tommy, and Thea than the others. Just like the Waynes and my family, the Queens and Merlyns were drowning in money.

Although I was closer in age to Thea, I hung out with Oliver and Tommy the most since they were adults like me, and Thea was still in the beginning of high school. I spent most of my college days hanging out with Oliver and Tommy. We’d go out to clubs, parties, etc. Spend nights getting drunk, hooking up with strangers, and having fun.

It somehow didn’t affect my grades, but it didn’t make Bruce (or Dick, my ex-boyfriend and friend) happy when they saw me on the cover of a tabloid magazine holding a bottle of tequila in one hand while a random guy was holding onto my waist.

After Bruce had scolded me over the phone, I stopped going out as much (although I went out now and then) and began studying more. I had always had a high IQ, so I just felt like studying was a waste of my time and energy. But after hearing Bruce sound so disappointed in me, I decided that I would change my ways.

After graduating college two years early at the age of twenty with a Masters Degree in Criminology and a Bachelor’s Degree in Fashion Design, I moved out of Star City—a bit before Oliver went missing on the boat with his father, Sara, and another man— and moved to Central City to go work at the CCPD as one of the forensic scientists there.

In all honesty, I didn’t need a job since my parents were very wealthy (and I was the sole heiress , so I inherited all of the money and properties), but I absolutely loved science. Therefore, I decided to work for something that didn’t pay much, but had to do with what I was passionate about. I applied for a position as a forensic scientist and I got accepted.

Then, I met Barry allen. It was my first day working at the CCPD and I was looking for the room I was supposed to be working in. He had just come out of the elevator when he noticed me looking around. He asked me if i was lost and I told him that I was.

He offered to show me where the room since it turned out that he was the other forensic scientist working there. We had a couple things in common like our shared love for forensic science, Star Wars, and dead moms. This was a couple months before the particle accelerator.

It was there at the CCPD where I met Detective Joe West and his daughter, Iris West. The two of us clicked almost instantly and became very close. She was a barista at C.C. Jitters which I would often frequent after finding out she worked there. It wasn’t much longer until our lives were changed because of a particle accelerator created by S.T.A.R. Labs.

hello yes i would like an order of 13. "try again" and also 19. "stop pushing, it wont end well" with a side of 20. "you look so fucking hot right now" thanks :)

ONE ORDER OF NUMBER 13, 19 AND, A SIDE OF 20 COMING RIIIIIGHT UP! 🛎

"You look so fucking hot right now,"

Vidal practically moaned as she soaked in the sight before her. She had Agnes' hands tied up behind her, pushed back onto the pillows. The real sight before her was the undoubtedly feminine bra and underwear set she had bought for Agnes just the other day ago. Agnes couldn't stop laughing when she opened it, thinking it was a joke and really Vidal had bought it for herself. Her laugh quickly ended when she saw the dead-serious look in Vidal's eyes; something darker brewing behind them. She had bought them intentionally, lace and frills and all. It even was a pushup bra.

Agnes moaned, rolling her eyes back before snapping them shut. She hated how turned on she was to all of this; sitting there like a pretty present. Vidal had turned the tables for sure; this was usually her on the other end looking pretty and feminine and gorgeous.

"You are...so pretty...aren't you? My pretty boy,"

Vidal's words were edged with sweetness; her hand coming up to cup Agnes' face. She saw her cheeks and neck flush red, iris' blown out. Oh god, she thought, she's so pretty.

"Stop pushing, Vidal...it won't end well,"

Agnes mumbled, turning her face slightly so that her mouth was pressed against the palm of Vidal's hand. She was trying to be hard, maybe even a little cold, but she had failed miserably with her words, the tone of her voice. Pretty boy sunk into her head and made her slip away.

"Oh, I'm not pushing...I haven't even started pushing yet. I don't think I even need to. I think you'll give me whatever I ask for and you'll take whatever I give you. Isn't that right, Baby?"

Agnes didn't even wait for Vidal to finish talking, already nodding her head in agreement. Vidal's hand slipped away from Agnes' face, bringing it back to her side. She re-positioned herself then, getting closer to the detective. She brought her right knee in between Agnes' legs, pushing it upwards so that she could feel the lace underwear on her thigh. The fabric was already damp, wet against her skin. She clicked her tongue against her teeth.

"You didn't even wait for me, we're going to have to try this all again..."

"Try what again?"

They were facing each other, looking into each others eyes. Agnes' mouth stayed slightly open as if expecting something to happen, something she would have to use her mouth for.

"You getting all wet for me. We're going to have to try this all again,"

Vidal repeated herself as she moved her thigh slightly, making Agnes moan. She waited patiently for Agnes to get the hint and it didn't take long for the detective to start grinding down against Vidal's thigh. She could feel the lace underwear sticking to her folds, pushed upwards and coated slick. Now there was friction, there was heat.

"That's right, pretty boy...you take what you need, you take what I give you...does that feel good? Do you feel how wet you are for me? Just for me? Soaked right through that set I got you...god! You make more of a mess than I do..."

Agnes' brain was buzzing, the words filling her up and making her feel completely out of control. She let her breathing become louder, less in sync. It was true, she thought to herself as she rolled her hips back and forth to chase the building and familiar pressure inside of her, she will take what Vidal gives her and then some.

Your Iris DBDA edit has killed me.

It is too perfect. I'm speechless

Just

"I don't want the world to see me. Cause I dont think that they'd understand"

100% Edwin.

This has literally consumed all my thoughts. Thank you

Haha thanks, I’m glad you like it! Yeah, when I first realised how well the lyrics fit both Charles and Edwin my brain like exploded :)) I’ve made a few more gif sets for the song, a verse one from Edwin’s POV as well, and a chorus for each of them, plus a chorus for Monty as well (which is also crazy). But yeah, the Edwin chorus with that line “I don’t want the world to see me because I don’t think that they’d understand” is so freaking satisfying, it fits him so so well!!

Harsh new dawn

with @thedemonconstantine

"It seems to me you stand on the precipice of a new dawn. May it be harsh on your enemies and tender to your allies"

It had been six weeks since she last seen or spoken to him, he was adjusting to his duties well, taken well to his teachings and yet even in their distance Talia could not help but to see herself in every message she received of him.

He never smiled, he never found joy in things, singularly focused on his achievements and his rise within the ranks, already outperforming whatever could pass as a peer in the League.

If he indeed was much like her he'd read her greeting for exactly what it was, an acknowledgement that she was proud of his achievements so far.

"Servants have brought that beautiful tapestry you weaved. Although might I say your needlework still leaves room for improvement" She taught him to weave eons ago, or maybe it was months ago. One loses perspective of time when one thinks of the centuries.

It was April, it's November now.

Her hand extended not in greeting but in guiding Tim towards the sniper riffle aiming at the beach front.

There was a boy sat there that wore glasses with piercing blue eyes and a barn owl hidden in his hoodie drinking hot chocolate speaking to a woman with silken long black hair and sun kissed skin. The likeness was uncanny, a boy cosmetically altered to pass as Tim even from up close until it was too late. Hence Monaco, a place where the wealthy and shady thrived and one where none of these men belonged or would find easy ally.

It was to send a message. That she knew. That she knew and she was watching. An obvious trap that would send them scurrying right into the next and prove they were running a maze run of her design.

"I regret to inform you that you have proven to be more valuable than anticipated. The Man in White has burned through our Crete safe house, wherever I send you he is mere breaths away from striking. I must take measures and not leave you in the hands of lessers anymore-"

"You are to be a lure- and the viper that strikes from the shadow all at once. " E might not take this bait but eventually he would show up again and Talia this time would be prepared.

"Four males, two of which evade their likeness captured via conventional means. Rumor spreads among the ranks that you are tailed by a phantasm come to haunt you" she smirked almost amused. "It appears dead men do tell tales when inclined to find information of you"

Talia handed Tim a business card for a detective agency with a distinct eye with a Rose as an Iris and a surprisingly thin folder of the four men and knowledge of them.
