[ barry's flash-senses are tingling — or maybe it's just his forensic scientist senses. he always had a talent for unravelling riddles pre-lightning strike. there's something familiar in the babbling, and it isn't because of his name. how many barrys has barry come across in his life? does dad making him listen to barry manilow count? does his earth-1 counterpart make the cut? it's the familiarity in the fact nothing can really touch him. ]

[ he's got his attention, but it isn't because they're talking about food. :/ perhaps next time. ]

[ brows furrowing, ] Why do you think nothing really affects you? [ his lips quirk upward, ] Tranquilisers take anything down. It's been a universal thing so far. I'm pretty sure it's the only thing in this Multiverse that stays the same. [ except the flash — though, barry doesn't want to try that out. ]
