#god i love this jerk who has zero empathy and understanding of consequences of his actions or even the concept they might be wrong so much

¿Por qué Eobard escogió a Barry Allen?, ¿Por qué no ha a Wally o a Jay?, o a otros superheroes, como Superman, Wonder Woman o incluso Batman?. ¿Por qué exactamente él?, ¿Qué lo hizo especial, único y diferente como para tener toda y la absoluta atención de Eobard?

okay i am most likely out of my competency here bc i have no idea about anyone other than barry (and that's through lenses of issues with thawne) and maybe batman but my guesses: 1. thawne's origin place, central city and accessibility of the flash museum. 2. thawne's undeniable taste because speedsters are literal gods and the slayest superheroes with the slayest powers. 3. barry being a scientist, because thawne needed someone to relate to, and even if that would half-consist of his own projections they still needed a base. 4. barry's sweet cinnamon roll personality with all the unique individual traits (i cannot describe it on spot but tell me you also feel that his kindness is different from superman and ww's, let alone batman's. as to wally and jay, i shall not speak of them because i have no idea of jay's personality and i am biased against wally and his treatment of villain speedsters) because thawne needed comfort in his life.

also, fun fact! according to rs thawne studied all flashes, if i remember correctly this is confirmed to be wally and later he recreates the picture while posing as The Flash Of 25th Century. he wasnt just obsessed with barry but with the flash as an idea and obviously with the speed force as well. but did that interest come from his love for barry or independently as an obsession complex from the very beginning, (like if he knew about the concept of flash in his childhood first and only then about different people who wore the suit)? open for discussion as even thawne probably cant tell at this point, his timeline and obsession are both a complicated blurry mess.

#his happy expression of finally being The Flash while standing in front of a building HE SET ON FIRE HIMSELF 💀💀💀💀💀💀 #nobody fucking does it like eobard thawne. nobody #god i love this jerk who has zero empathy and understanding of consequences of his actions or even the concept they might be wrong so much #eobard thawne #reverse flash #professor zoom #the flash #eobarry ig? #asks
