Well, I can try—although we both know I'm not always the most concise.
[And even in a life such as either of theirs, where so much they've experienced and done would easily qualify as impossible for most, Wonderland is something of a stretch. There's a certain comfort when it comes to understanding the way things like time and reality are meant to work; Rip's largely discovered as much by having any sense of that understanding taken away.
Five flights of stairs gives Rip the time to offer something of an abbreviated version, however. He tells her of the periodic events that change their environment and sometimes the residents themselves, of deaths that don't last, not just in Sara's case, but for everyone. Mention is given to the Mirrors that exist on the other side of each reflective plane of glass, of Chronos specifically, as his attack remains still fresh in Rip's mind.
With a frown, he tells her about memories, and all the ways this world seems to steal them.
And then of timelines. They've touched upon it already by establishing that Rip is from what Sara sees as the past. So it goes for their whole number, friend and foe: Raymond, Mick, Nate, and Eobard Thawne. None of them seem to have been drawn from the same moment within their own history, and everyone has been pulled from Rip's future.
Save one.
His general inability to keep things short has served in Rip's favor this time, and he offers Sara a look of sympathy as they enter the bar. If she doesn't already know, Rip stands uncertain how she'll take the news—and perhaps it's better to be closer to where they've meant to end up.]
Mr. Snart has been drawn here as well—from the encounter at the Oculus.
