[ Perhaps it's a bit old-fashioned, but the message arrives for Barry via mockingbird. Sealed closed by a wax mockingbird sigil, the letter is hand-written in careful cursive. ]

Dear, Mr. Allen -

We have not spoken before, but my name is Petyr Baelish. I serve as the ambassador for Maurtia Falls. I write to you on behalf of a project I am working on within my city. Construction has already begun on rebuilding a much larger library, but I wish for this to be more than simply a bigger structure. I hope to inspire education and the spread of knowledge to the natives of Maurtia Falls as well as provide an invaluable resource to new arrivals here. But more than that, I wish to use it to pay homage to the natives who lost their lives within Maurtia Falls due to imPort related tragedies. Their names will be honored within the library itself and donations will be set up to be made to the families.

For this project to succeed, I need your help. If you are able to donate anything at all to the cause, it would be most appreciated -- whether that is books, money, or simply your time. I plan to put programs into place once the library is finished to have imPorts come in and read to the much younger generation. I believe it would be a great way to strengthen the native and imPort bond.

I thank you for your time, and I do hope to hear back from you soon.

Sincerely,
Ambassador Petyr Baelish

[ OOC: You can feel free to just respond to this OOCly if he would donate anything or not! ]

[ holy shit, he got something delivered by bird. barry wishes he could tell joe this immediately and then ask wells if this is something that's ever existed on earth-2 and then explain the entire process to him to result in being lectured. ]

[ he reads the letter a few times over within a couple of minutes, and decides then and there perhaps it won't be so bad to revisit a time in his life where he'd been useful to his city. he can repair things within a few hours at the speed of light, and he can inspire people to run, he supposes. what can a new import like him do, if not extend a hand when asked? ]

Hey Ambassador Baelish.

#1 Cool bird.

#2 I'm in. I've got a lot of time. Not many books. Not much money. But I can help in other ways, all you need to do is lmk what else you're after and I'll see if I can deliver.

[ since he doesn't have a cool bird of his own and barry's just overall not cool enough to have a bird to send post with, seconds later he sends: ]

btw this is Barry Allen.

Ah, Mr. Allen! It's excellent to hear from you. The fact that you're willing to aid at all is most appreciated. I can think of a couple of things you could do to help -- the first is in construction. The second is helping with a few programs I intend to start within the library itself. It's really up to you what you would rather do.

What kind of programs? I work in the police department back home. If any of them are about crime, maybe I can help out.

I know someone who can help with construction. If you don't already have a team on hand. He's a bit ... quick. If you're impatient for things to be built.

[ that's totally not suspicious at all. ]

Actually, while the programs would not be about the prevention or rehabilitation of crime, they are designed with one single goal -- encouraging natives to pick up skills that would help them gain legitimate employment. You may not have been here for long, but certainly it has not escaped your notice that Maurtia Falls has quite a problem with crime. Your expertise in police work could help prepare people interested in getting into the field of criminal justice. If you think it would be helpful, I wouldn't mind having you run a monthly class that is designed to let people know what to expect going into police work and how they could succeed in the field. I would pay you generously for the time you devote to the course.

[ A separate text comes afterward to address that definitely suspicious thing Barry said because Baelish totally hit the word limit on that first one. ]

As for your friend, I would definitely welcome his aid. We have a core team on hand with a revolving door of imPorts coming in every now and then to help out. But I am all for anyone who can help expedite the process.

[ Cisco calls, Barry answers, and Cisco tells him to hang up so he can hear the voicemail play out.

Cisco calls again, jams out to Elvis, then leaves a message: ]

There are one hundred and fifty chocolate Easter eggs hidden throughout the city of Heropa. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find and rescue as many of these eggs as you can before the sun causes the poor, sweet, innocent chocolate inside to melt. Each egg is equipped with a GPS sensor so I can track your progress.

Go!

yo dude i need a pic of your suit in action. photoshoot?

Edited 2017-05-15 16:01 (UTC)

Hell yeah, I'm in!

[ a second later: ]

What am I in?

me. you. (the flash.)
a camera. some sick poses.

im gonna try to market myself for hero suits/tech.

Woah???
This is AWESOME, Cisco!!!

[ barry won't lie, he's a little possessive when it comes to sharing his friends with anyone else. cisco's talent is amazing, and one he wants to keep for himself ... but he also wants to be able to show off and embarrass cisco by saying "that's my friend". he can already envision himself helping little old ladies cross the road and telling them how his suit's made by the one and only cisco ramon. ]

I won't let you or Tyra down.
I'm rooting for you!!
Just name the time and place and I'll be there 5mins early.

This reminded me of you! :D

thanks, man. i appreciate it.

what do you think of ramon tech as a name?

[ welcome to rapid fire texts: ]

Do I get the first business card?

What's your logo?

What does Ramon Tech's logo even look like?

Are you hiring?

[ less rapid fire texts in return ]

as soon as theyre printed, its yours

dont have one yet

wanna help me come up with it?

dude im not even sure i can make money off of this. i cant pay you.

How do you draw a breach?

[ and then barry sends a text with a squiggly line, similar to a ~. ]

That doesn't look like a breach. Should it be like a cloud? Breaches kind of look like clouds to me.

I still want the position.

I'll charge ... pizza.

A pizza night a week!

That's doable???

Unless you can't go for pizza, then it's on me!

Hey, I have a hat just like that one!

Do you think the Flash should have a suit upgrade? I think the Flash should have an everything upgrade!
Lightning bolt symbol changes to a slice of pizza
Leather red suit turns into a baggy pizza delivery boy outfit
No one would ever suspect to be saved by a delivery boy!

a pizza night a week sounds doable.
youre on.

if the business takes off, ill see about commissioning someone to draw a breach logo.

+ garlic bread
Do NOT forget the garlic bread, dude.

And then we can get Ramon Tech t-shirts, right???
Maybe I need my suit redesigned to incorporate this new logo in support
Maybe on the shoulder???

[ slow your roll, barry, you're getting ahead of yourself here. ]

Just out of curiosity, have you looked yourself up on Schmoogle lately?

[ given he has no idea where this conversation may be heading, he opts to immediately plead innocent. ]

Beyonce doesn't Schmoogle herself, so I don't either.

[ he totally does. check the computer history, iris. it legit says "bartholomew" "other people named bartholomew" "the flash vs the streak" "cat memes" ]

So you haven't seen the fanfiction?

[ she's not one to talk considering she just looked herself up, but the amount is enough to overwhelm even one who's familiar with the Internet. Or so she'd think, anyway. ]

[ ... he thinks he sees where this is going, and he sees no point in denying it. she's onto him; when iris has a bone, it's so hard to get it off her. ]

Okay
I lied
I Schmoogled myself

And can I just say I do not appreciate the Flash/Arrow fanfictions that have me as the bottom!

[ ... wait what. How come Barry got to kiss Oliver in the RPF and she didn't???]

As great as that mental image is, I don't think you'll have to worry about those anymore.

[ Image link: A tag on a fanfiction site with now hundreds of Barry/Iris stories. Some have 100,000 words and counting??? Oh and there's a random Barry/Iris/Cisco or Barry/Iris/the Flash (yes, as a separate entity) mixed in for good measure. The fans have been uh, prolific. ]

[ all iris will receive is a solid "..." for a good two minutes. of course barry's already gone through most of the summaries on the first page, sorted it from most popular and then from least popular. he's pretty sure what he's experiencing right now is a brain explosion. ]

Have you read any of these?

[ he has to do a serious double-take since there are smut stories about them — barry and iris, and iris and the flash ... who is not barry? but is barry? but isn't barry? he's going to click on one to see how this works. ]
