❅ [Video] un: captaincold

[frostyfelon]

[Leonard's a bit leery when he activates the video comm on his device and gives it a very intent look, as if he could see through it to the entirety of the network. Spoilers: He can't. He just likes making people uncomfortable, if the lengthy silence is anything to go by.

As a matter of fact, it stretches on so long that it might seem like the video was an accident and he wasn't aware he was broadcasting. Don't be silly, he's not that careless.]

Here's the thing, [He begins calmly with a bit of a lilt to his voice as he speaks.] I'm no stranger to space travel. What I don't understand is how my ship [He sure did call the Waverider "his". He hopes Rip is rolling over back in their reality.] fell through this rift with me, but the rest of the crew did not.

Anyway, I'm Leonard Snart, also called Captain Cold by some. I'm a Sagittarius and like long walks on the beach at sunset, rom-coms, and holding hands. [No, he doesn't. All of that was a lie except his name and alias. If his deadpan delivery says anything at all, it's that he's a sarcastic little shit.]

I don't need friends, but in my experience, allies come in handy. I'm more likely to lend a hand to an ally than a stranger.

It's a sad fact, but one that we have to live with. In my line of work, it's the chumps and morons that make the best targets. [A casual shrug. Just because he's out saving the world doesn't mean he isn't still a thief. Without the world, there won't be people the rob. You just have the look at the bigger picture, or so he tells himself.]

You already know my name. I guess that makes us allies, Felix. How long've you been here?

[douchebag]

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[ There are a lot of chumps and morons where he comes from. Sadly, a large number of them haven't got anything worthwhile to steal. ]

Just showed up a couple days ago. Got the whole "anomaly" spiel, but I'm not sure I buy it. It doesn't sound realistic. And I say that as someone who's used teleportation grenades.

[ Because those didn't sound either when he first heard about them. ]

[frostyfelon]

Got the same spiel not too long ago. I'd say I agree with you, but timetravel opens your mind a bit.

[He shrugs easily, as if that's just a normal thing to talk about.]

I have to say, teleportation grenades sound useful. But whatever dragged us here has some credibility. I mean, we're here after all.

[douchebag]

[ That's true. They are here so that lends credence to something. Felix hums a mildly agreeable note. ]

Can't argue with that. [ A beat. ] Although, humor me with a question, yeah? You weren't in any kind of life or death situation before coming here, were you?
