Girl, it's normal to feel nervous. We haven't been in the dating game for a while!!!

[ though she might be taken. honestly, she still doesn't know where she stands with Barry. ]

I hope it won't come to that, but I am an EXCELLENT get-out-of-dates card.

Which is a damn shame. You deserve to be swept off your feet.

[ Well, she isn't going to pry into the status of Iris' and Barry's relationship. For her friend's sake. ]

Yeah, I don't want to come to that either. Still, the back-up is appreciated.

lmao, well... mind saying that where Barry can hear??

[ might as well be completely honest, right?? ]

Anytime. I know you'd do the same for me. (:

Do I have to give Barry a stern talking to?

[Because she will do it.]

In a heartbeat :)

God no.
It's more that the last thing I remember is Barry asking me to wait for him.
That we couldn't start anything until he was ready.

If I ask him about it, then I'm the impatient one. Again.

I'm so sorry, Iris. I had no idea.

That's a really hard thing to have to deal with.

Does he remember something different to what you do?

[ Laurel writes, "really hard," and Iris has to stop and think about it. Compared to watching and waiting over Barry's body for nine months, this impatience feels like a flicker. A short, intense moment that'll pass once she's got the signal. ]

I don't know.
We've never compared notes. We never needed to.

Maybe I could ask him what he remembers.

The last thing I remember is saying goodbye to Sara before she went off on her time travel adventure.

But I'm here for you whenever you need to talk. Promise.

Thanks. That means a lot to me. ♥

[ but truthfully, she's not sure how much that conversation would help. after all, she's supposed to be patient and to wait however long it took. barry waited 26 years. her half a year looks kind of pitiful in comparison. ]

But don't go to a lot of trouble on my behalf.
We'll figure it out sooner or later.

I'm glad to hear it ♥

[ she knows that it is something that iris and barry have to work out between themselves, but she's here for support. ]

I know you guys will figure things out.

But let me know what I can do.

Why don't we have a girls' night after this?
Dish about Major, catch up on our favorite shows??

I'll even break out the nail polish.

Oh my God that's an amazing idea.

I am so ready to dish about him! And binge-watching is a must.

Oooh nail polish? I love the sound of that.

Girl, I've waited too long for this season of The Bad Place. I would've binged with or without you. :P

Bring your entire collection, Lance, because it's gonna be the most low-key one we've had all year.

Alright, West. You got it.

If we end up trading a few nail polishes you'll be good with that?

And I can't believe you'd binge without me :O

Um of course. Take whatever you'd like! I barely get enough use as-is.

I have to know if they get together 😩 If we get another season of this will they won't they bs 😩😩

[ . . . then she'll still tune in anyway. that's iris for you. ]

That's how TV shows hook you though. You want to tune in and see if they get together.

And when they do, you just scream at your television and then text your friend about it.

Be strong, Iris. You can last through the bs.

So THAT'S how they get you......
I'm gonna need a LOT of mint chocolate chip :((

[ she kids. mostly. ]

Or popcorn. I haven't decided yet.

Popcorn is an excellent choice.

Maybe you could have both? Like one bowl of popcorn and just two scoops of mint chocolate chip?

Taking the third option... I like the sound of that.

Occasionally, I come up with some good ideas.

* Always

give yourself some credit, Lance!!
