Hi, same anon from before. I just want to thank you for replying. I totally get it, I gave up on the show as well after they did Caitlin THAT dirty. I just got so upset that none of her so called friends cared about her death and I KNOW Eobart Thawne would move heaven and hell to bring her back but I completely understand. I am excited for your other story and also the Caitlin/Hunter one bc I LOVE Caitlin and villains pairings. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for updating your work and hopefully snowells week gives you the inspiration.
Aw, thank you again so much for writing, Anon! (And I totally thought I'd replied to this the other day, so sorry! 😬😳)
I've been able to shrug off a LOT of what they've done with Eobard because, well, he dies and comes back a whole bunch anyway so it's not like killing him is permanent, lol! But how they've done Caitlin has been just awful, IMO. And exactly, how could her friends have not been devastated?
I have to admit, I have a tiny little fic idea trying to take root right now because, YES, I believe Eobard Thawne would NOT have liked her friends just being all, "Welp, so sad that Caitlin's gone. Yep, we've 'mourned' for 5 seconds, let's get on with life!" 😣 So right now, I'm gently cherishing that little idea like it's a baby ember I'm hoping to grow into a full-fledged spark that can eventually start burning on a (digital) page, lol!
Tumblr media
And YAY, thank you so much for the kind words for the Caitlin/Hunter fic! "The Price" ch1 will hopefully be popping up today? Tomorrow? This weekend?
Tumblr media
We'll see, lol! Thanks again! 🤗💖

I LOVE YOUR MIND
I think actually he would feel trouble feeling anything. He'd probably regret killing kids if he ever done that (because of LG) but otherwise I think he wouldn't feel anything. At first I thought that he'd feel alive, since canonically he feels alive only when taking someone else's life, but I'm not sure he'd feel anything just watching the record.
Or he'd feel the stinging feeling of regret, if church monologue is actually his (I have a theory that it's actually Fifteen's thoughts, but I'm not really sure so!! Just a fun thought) and he felt bad watching all those people cry.
Or he'd feel everything at once like one big complicated feeling (⁠*⁠﹏⁠*⁠;⁠) I don't know how to describe it.
Tumblr media
THANK YOU!!! 🥹🥹🥹
Tumblr media
I love SnowHunter SO MUCH my favourite lesbians. They have me in chokehold since I first thought about them I just. Need more of them in my life.
I think Snow uses something similar to chronos! Like that green thing Psych used in boss fight. He mentioned that the government created more than just one drug for war, so it's safe to assume that she will most likely use something similar. Or it might be something that organization Snow works for created, since they somehow recreated chronos. I hope we'll see what she uses in the dlc 🙏
Tumblr media
I LOVE USING RED THANK YOU SM

AHHH I'M SO HAPPY YOU NOTICED THE EFFECT!! I like drawing it on my artworks with nulls because it shows how their time is running out yk yk (⁠。⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧ mentally ill guys
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR ALL THE FEEDBACK I LOVE YOUUU AGHHHHHH
YAYYYYYY IM SO HAPPY YOU LIKE ALL OF THESE!!! I GOT A FEW THINGS TO SAY BACK
ykw ykw. i think he'd feel so much about everything that he'd just go numb. his normal blank expression on his face but somehow even more unreadable than normal. idk if he'd be able to feel anything after that. him feeling "alive" while killing is just him feeling like he's actually having an effect on the world around him yk? that's how he was raised, a child soldier. but losing your memories of that and then running with the mindset that only the lives of criminals and corrupt police deserve less value only to see yourself killing children? beings that physically cannot have less value because they have so much more life ahead of them? brooooo brooooooooo he's done for he's donneeee. I really like the theory that the monologue is from fif instead of zero too- and it makes sense! fifteen has such strong connections to his past that of course he'd have such strong thoughts about what it was like. zero for sure could say it himself but he's so warped about whats real and not that i dont think he could form that strong of an opinion (and if it IS his thoughts then its just what psych planted in his head)
SPEAKING OF PSYCH im pretty sure the green mega chronos or whatever the psych uses was confirmed to be not actually canon and (speculation from here) just a hallucination from zero's end considering the path to getting that boss is just by pissing him off. BUT but but i do think her amping herself up on the fake chronos that the company is making is soooo real. i hope we see in the dlc god ugh. either way i definitely gotta draw some snowhunter myself since i havent stopped thinking about it.
anyway YEAHHHHH RUNNING OUT OF TIMEEEEEEE. i loveeee how subtle it is in your art but also directly staring you in the face. youre soooo good at it !!!!!

Orion - Chapter Thirteen: Bird Snare (The Flash)
Tumblr media
Title: Orion [AO3] [LJ] [FF] Chapter: Bird Snare Universe: The Flash Pairings: SnowJay (Caitlin Snow/Jay Garrick), SnowHunter (Caitlin Snow/Hunter Zolomon) Word count: ~5,000 Spoilers: All episodes through 02x18 Versus Zoom and all comic books that feature Zoom/Hunter Zolomon. Rating: NC-17/MA Chapter summary: Caitlin and Hunter both make their next moves.
Canon-divergent as of 02x18 Versus Zoom. Caitlin Snow and Jay Garrick meet under strange circumstances, but the attraction between them is immediate and the connection, real. Stranded on Earth-2, Caitlin fights for her survival against Zoom, the seemingly unstoppable meta-human who has fallen in love with her.
Set immediately after the events in 02x18 Versus Zoom, Orion includes flashbacks to missing scenes during canon episodes of the season when SnowJay was developing.
Read Orion from the beginning.
Orion Chapter Thirteen: Bird Snare
Caitlin was in the kitchen preparing breakfast for herself and RJ. Somewhere between cracking eggs and reaching for the toast, a sudden wind rushed through the room, rattling plates and dragging with it a lingering chill.
She should get a sweater.
She turned, and a man was there. He hadn't been there a few moments ago. Had he? Yet, here he was, this man with a painfully familiar face. Who was he?
"Caitlin?" he spoke. "Can you hear me?"
"Of course I can hear you," she replied. "You're right in front of me."
"Hold up, you can - you can see me?" the man asked. Before she could say anything, he blurted, "Oh, man! It finally worked! I'm dream-Vibing you, girl!"
Confusion followed this pronouncement. Why was he surprised that she could see him? Who was this guy, anyway? Wasn't she supposed to be cooking?
"Look, I dunno how long this will last," he kept speaking. "Caitlin, we're working on something, okay? We're gonna bring you home."
"What are you talking about?" she asked, confused. "I am home."
RJ started to cry.
-----
Caitlin jolted awake, disoriented by the sheets wrapped around her and the wailing from the crib beside her bed.
The image of that man's face - his horrified expression - remained fixed in her mind.
Cisco.
Caitlin couldn't remember any substance from her dream. Had she been eating with Cisco? Walking with him on the beach? Working together back at STAR Labs?
She couldn't focus, not with RJ's sobs. She pulled herself out of bed and lifted the toddler into her arms. His cries dropped to sullen whimpers. Her first thought was that he simply wanted attention, but he remained clearly distressed when snuggled against her chest.
She checked his forehead with the back of her hand. No, he didn't seem to have a fever. She glanced at the clock. Twelve past three in the morning, not a time he was normally awake. At least, not since she started caring for him. Was it normal for him - or toddlers in general - to wake crying like this?
Probably not.
As she walked down the stairs with a fussing RJ, she reminded herself that she could do this and that this was good practice. In a few more months, she'd be dealing with an infant. Frequent nighttime disruptions were definitely part of her future, so she might as well get a handle on it now.
On the chance that he was hungry, she ducked into the kitchen. When she took a sippy cup out of the cupboard, RJ reached for it, which she decided was a good sign. He must be thirsty.
She filled it about halfway with milk, and soon, RJ was busy sipping from his cup.
Please let this be enough to make the crying stop.
They both needed to go back to bed, so once he was finished, she carried the now-much-happier RJ back up the stairs, exhausted out of her mind, and all thoughts of her dream forgotten.
RJ settled back down almost immediately, but Caitlin was not so lucky. She curled up in bed but couldn't get comfortable.
At some point after Hunter had brought her back to the Comet, she returned to her room with a gnawing, rolling numbness that had taken hold of her. She had stared out the floor-to-ceiling window that made up one of the walls to her room for... how long, exactly? Minutes? Hours? Days?
However long she stared, her eyes never really adjusted to the dark. The moon was barely a sliver in the sky, and clouds blotted out the stars. Still, the ocean mesmerized her. Outside, not far from where she stood, sprawling waves collided with a pristine beach, falling back only to resurge again, swallowing a little more shore each time.
And here she was, hours later, lying in bed, and all she could do was think about those waves.
Was that what was happening to her? It felt like it. It felt as if she was slowly losing herself to an inevitable tide, sure and certain to consume her. It was only a matter of time before she, too, disappeared beneath the salt and sea.
Maybe she'd be better off that way.
With that thought, she fell asleep.
-----
About two hours ago on Earth-2, Hunter sped across the world, checking each of the former breech sites for any signs of activity, save for the one deep in the jungle near Gorilla City. It was never wise to trespass on the Great Ape's territory, but it would be particularly problematic now, when it might alienate them from allying with the Cause. They'd soon learn of the horrors Gorilla Grodd suffered, and they'd be out for blood. Preferably, the MTU's blood.
That was a matter for another day.
He could use the breech Vibe opened to draw Zoom back to Earth-1, but Team Flash actively monitored it. The last thing he needed was to become the target of yet another one of their blundering, desperate plans. Any interaction between him and them could result in their injury, and Caitlin already had enough reasons to hate him.
That's what happens to monsters.
No matter what, this monster needed to get to Earth-1 and back without any interference. So he identified the most fragile of the patched-breeches.
Vibe would sense his arrival immediately, and there was nothing Hunter could do to avoid that. But he could enter and exit from two different breeches, depriving Team Flash of any opportunity to intervene.
As he raced into his entry breech, he wondered what Caitlin would think of his tactics to evade Team Flash. Would she see them for what they were - her influence on a broken and angry yet reborn man? Or would she read it as weakness, as fear?
She wouldn't believe it at all.
A patched breech was similar to an opened breach; it just took a bit more effort to punch through to the between to cross to the next universe. Within a few seconds, Hunter burst into Earth-1 Central City.
Part of him envied this universe. Here, metahumans had a future unencumbered by elements like the MTU. In one of the futures he'd lived, he'd even witnessed this universe banning together to protect their metas from the encroaching MTU army of Earth-2. He had given serious consideration to abandoning his own universe in favor of Earth-1.
But then, Caitlin had died in that future. Hunter realized then that Team Flash couldn't keep her alive. He would have to do it, and he couldn't protect her, not in this universe, anyway.
He arrived outside her apartment complex, deciding to enter without his speed. Caitlin had given him - or, rather, Jay - a key, and it'd be nice to walk in, just like old times.
Hunter wasn't sure what he'd expected. A flood of memories? An overwhelming sense of longing? Whatever it was, he braced himself for it, and it never came.
Instead, he was in a very familiar apartment with the ghost of some other man's past joys haunting his footsteps.
As he collected photos from the living room, the phantom was the countless times they'd curled up with one another on the couch.
When he gathered items from the bathroom, the specter staring him down was the bathtub, where they'd spent more than one romantic evening unwinding after a particularly rough day.
As he made his way back to the bedroom, he felt the weight of the next spirit awaiting him long before he opened the door. He hadn't fallen asleep with - let alone, woken up next to - many people in his life. He never let anyone get that close to him. Not until Caitlin.
He packed her photo albums and her clothing in a room full of another man's memories with Caitlin. He felt the whisper of every touch, the sensation of every noise, the ripple of everything spoken here. But it was like all of that had happened with another man, a man he longed to be. A man who had let her in.
And she, in turn, had let him in. Into her life, her arms, her home, and even into her body. She hadn't just let him in, she'd welcomed him, wanted him. This was the first place he'd ever really known that feeling.
And he wanted it back.
But Hunter couldn't catch a ghost. The memories churned up, but he was no closer to getting Caitlin back. He refused to delude himself into thinking she would soften because he'd brought her some of the comforts of home. No, one act of kindness wouldn't be enough. He'd need a hundred - a thousand - acts of kindness before she'd even budge.
It was a good thing he was the fastest man alive. A thousand acts of kindness - even in the middle of a brewing war, soon to erupt - were well within his grasp. And this would be the first.
When Hunter walked out of her apartment and locked the door behind him, he sensed something inside himself shift. The joys of this place did not belong to an apparition; no, they were his now, like they always had been. It was up to him to make sure that they stayed that way.
Despite three heavily packed bags, he paced himself as he exited the building until he found enough cover to conceal the blur of his blue lightning.
He needed to clear his head, so he ran freely, zipping over the Rocky Mountains and down the west coast before returning to the outskirts of Central City. He had one more point of business before he returned to Earth-2.
Reverb had been a problematic minion, but he had had his uses before he overstepped his authority for the last time. He'd designed all kinds of meta-tech, including assistive devices that could, in theory, work across the multiverse, though he constantly lied about the scope and objective of his work to conceal his plans.
Of course, Reverb had been unaware of Hunter's background in physics and chemistry. Had he even an inkling of Hunter's genius, he would've known how feeble his subterfuge had been.
That was why Hunter knew that Reverb had invented a multidimensional communications device under the guise of a "Breecher Detection Alert System." It hadn't been fully tested, but it was based on fairly sound theory.
And unlike Earth-2, this universe still had a metahuman with multidimensional abilities. What Reverb started, Vibe would surely finish. He had the motivation; all he needed was the opportunity.
Earth-2 Linda Park, aka Doctor Light, had arrived at the meeting spot early. She looked pale and generally unwell when he blazed into the dark alleyway.
"You said you'd leave me alone," was the first thing she said.
It was strange how brave she sounded, but the quiver of her lips gave her away.
"Did I?" he asked in his modulated Zoom voice. "I told you, so long as you continue to work with STAR Labs on this world, you and your family will be safe from me. And that deal remains."
She visibly relaxed as she realized he had not come here to kill her.
"I have something for you," he continued. "Something I want you to finish, and a message to deliver."
"A message?" she repeated incredulously. "Am I just supposed to tell my new 'team' that I had a chat with their old buddy Zoom?"
"Tell them whatever you like," he replied. "Tell them everything about our arrangement. Tell them nothing. It doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter?" she repeated, clearly confused. "Is that because you're going to... are you going to kill them?"
He considered her question. Doctor Light hadn't been a killer before she came to Earth-1, and her crimes had never been violent. She used her metahuman abilities to pull off bigger and bigger heists without any kind of physical harm. He once assumed that she did all this it because she knew that violent crimes attracted more heat, more cops, more retaliation.
Yet here she was, asking if he planned on killing her newfound team as if she genuinely cared about them.
Light had defied him. He couldn't let that stand, yet he also admired her for it. He decided against killing her when he realized he could use her to monitor Earth-1's STAR Labs, but that didn't mean he couldn't punish her just a little bit more. He'd let her stew with whatever unsettling thoughts she had.
For now.
"It doesn't matter what you tell them," he said. "Because soon they will know the truth for themselves."
With that, he left her with the package and raced back to Earth-2.
-----
Caitlin woke far too early in the morning for no reason at all. RJ was fast asleep, so she wandered into the bathroom to get ready for the day.
As she stood under the searing hot spray from the showerhead, she became alert and aware in increments, as if she hadn't quite finished waking up yet. Even so, accusation after accusation inundated her, refusing to abate.
She'd been so certain that Hunter had known about the baby, but his reaction had been all wrong. He'd been concerned and curious, but most of all, surprised. There was only one plausible explanation: she'd been wrong. He hadn't known about her pregnancy, and in her anger, she'd essentially locked her - no, their - prison forever. Whatever excuses Hunter made about holding her captive to protect her would be pale in comparison to the rationalizations he'd invent under the pretext of safeguarding his child.
No, not his child. Yours. Never his.
She tortured herself, reiterating those same thoughts until the water turned cold. But, as she toweled dry, she faced a particularly bitter truth: nothing had actually changed. If Hunter really was keeping her prisoner out of some twisted emotional connection - and she was starting to believe that was the case - then he was never going to let her go, pregnant or otherwise.
And how long could she have kept her pregnancy a secret from Hunter, anyway? Even if she could've concealed her test results, he would've cottoned on soon enough, either from all the adjustments she'd be making over the next few weeks or when she started showing.
At worst, her misstep had clued him in a few months early.
Assuming he hadn't already known.
Caitlin hadn't brought a change of clothing, so she returned to her room clad in the largest towel she could find. She fought the urge to collapse on her bed and sleep the day away. Now wasn't the time to give in or to give up, so she turned to her closet for something to wear.
She gasped - literally gasped - when she saw her favorite sweater. She pulled it out, and her fingers found the slightly loose right cuff and the wear spot at the right elbow. This was no replica; this was hers, from Earth-1.
Tears pricked at her eyes as she felt overwhelmed at the gesture.
Damn hormones.
Nothing had changed, whether or not Hunter had known about the pregnancy before. But she had successfully manipulated Hunter into crossing a breech to acquire some of her Earth-1 possessions.
She thought it'd feel like a victory, but instead she felt horrible. This wasn't her. This wasn't her.
Before she finished dressing, RJ woke up, unhappy and not afraid to express his dismay, so she carried him downstairs with her hair still damp, hoping breakfast would settle him.
And she spent the entire meal dreading Hunter's arrival.
Like always, food had been set out before her arrival: blueberry waffles - one of which was diced into very small pieces - and yogurt.
RJ fussed the whole time, unwilling to eat anything in front of him, but crying vehemently when Caitlin tried to take any of it away. It was enough to make her wonder if she was ready or motherhood. She had no idea what was wrong with RJ, and her patience for all the incoherent screaming was quickly evaporating.
She resigned herself to the sound of sobbing after fifteen futile minutes, leaving the inconsolable two-year-old to his own devices while she sat down to her now-cold meal.
Maybe she should run a few tests on RJ. He showed no signs of fever or congestion, but he could still be ill.
Or he might just be a two-year-old.
She decided she'd speak with Killer Frost just as RJ threw the remainder of his meal on the floor. Surely his mother would have some insight.
Thus, she rode down to the Comet, bypassing her "office" in favor of the second floor. She slipped into Unit C, but Frost wasn't there. Undeterred, she went to the floor's nurse's station, which was staffed by a familiar face: Roy Harper.
Not your Roy Harper. Earth-2 Roy.
"Where is Killer Frost?" she asked.
He seemed amused by her question. He sat back in his seat and asked, "What, are you, like, her sister or something?"
"You could say that," she replied. "Where is she?"
"Who wants to know?"
"Bellatrix," she answered.
Her response elicited an immediate reaction. His slouch vanished, and the smug half-smirk fell from his face.
"I'm sorry, ma'am," he said. " I didn't recognize you without your suit. Let me look up that patient for you."
Did Roy Harper just call you "ma'am"?
Roy typed something into the computer before he continued, "She's been moved to an intensive care floor for critical patients."
"Critical patients?" she repeated.
"Yes, ma'am. Level seventy-one, unit A. And, uh, children aren't allowed on critical floors - that's seventy to seventy-nine - not unless they're patients. But levels sixty-five and eighty-five have short-term day care for visitors."
"Thank you, uh - I'm sorry, I haven't asked your name."
"Berserker, ma'am."
"Thank you, Berserker."
Caitlin returned to the elevator and punched the number for level sixty-five. She didn't like the idea of leaving RJ in someone else's care, but she'd have to if she wanted to speak to Frost. So she dropped him off with a young woman who recognized him as soon as they stepped off the elevator. At least he wasn't with a total stranger.
"It's just a few minutes, Frostbite," she explained to him. "Just a few minutes."
She felt supremely guilty as she got back inside the elevator without him.
There were only two open units on level seventy-one. Most of the floor was a dedicated to Unit C, a biocontainment unit with an attached decontamination unit.
Caitlin spotted Doctor Midnight - one of them, anyway - working on a chart at the nurse's station. Unwilling to be held up by more questions, she ducked into Unit A.
Frost had been weak but definitely stable and improving yesterday, yet today her vitals had gotten weaker. Her first instinct was to consult her chart, but the patient was awake and starting straight at her.
"What are you doing here?" Frost snapped. "Didn't I tell you to get out already?"
"You did."
"You didn't bring him, did you?" she asked.
It was clear she meant her son.
"No," Caitlin replied. "What happened? Why did they move you here?"
"You mean the reject floor," she replied. "According to Doctor Midnight, I stopped breathing last night. Not sick enough to be on life support. Not well enough to get better."
"Don't say that," Caitlin said. "You just need time to heal."
"What for?"
"What for?" she repeated, indignant. "For your son."
"He's better off without me."
"How can you say that? He needs his mother."
"A mother who can't even touch him?" she shot back.
"You don't freeze everything you touch," Caitlin pointed out. "You're not freezing the bed you're lying in or any of the equipment touching you."
"No, just everything living," Frost said. "The only one who could survive my touch was Deathstorm. Our son didn't inherit that ability. My mother was a cold-hearted bitch, but she could hug him and wipe away his tears without freezing his skin."
"So that's it?" she asked, getting angrier by the second. "Ronnie dies, Mom dies, and you - you just give up?"
"You think I want to die?" she snapped. "I don't do make believe. I'm not getting better."
"But - "
"Remember your promise to me," she interrupted. "And whatever you do, don't bring him here. I don't want him to see me like this."
"You're not dying," Caitlin said stubbornly. "Not so long as I can help it."
"Tell me, why would you waste your time trying to save me?" Frost asked. "I'm a murderer, you know that, right? I've killed dozens of people. Possibly hundreds. A few of them were bad people that needed to die, but most of them were just in the wrong place at the wrong time... near me when I needed a nice, warm snack."
Caitlin asked, "If you're such a horrible person, then why did you save me? You could've used me as a battery like anyone else, but you didn't. You stopped that man from killing me."
Frost had no response for that.
"Maybe you think you're not worth saving, but I'm going to save you anyway," Caitlin said before she stormed out.
She made it to just outside the elevator before she realized that she'd said nearly the same thing to Jay - no, Hunter - only a few months ago back on Earth-1. Why was it that she was so dedicated to saving other people? Was it because she couldn't save herself?
No, saving Frost was strategic. She didn't have a clue - let alone a plan - for escaping, but she knew she'd need allies. A murderous ice queen with common decency and possibly a heart buried under years of detachment and resentment wouldn't be her first choice, but something told her she could trust her doppelganger.
Besides, she had worked with plenty of less-than-desirable people back on Earth-1, like Captain Cold and Heat Wave, and even Harrison Wells - or, rather, Eobard Thawne - after discovering his true identity. Even Team Arrow had worked with Malcolm Merlyn when times became desperate enough for such an alliance.
Screaming abruptly drew her attention. No, not screaming, an alarm. It was coming from Unit C.
She ran to help, but a flash of silver hurtled into her path, forcing her to come to an inelegant halt halfway to her destination. It was Hubris the fox.
Had he been following her this whole time?
Caitlin tried to go around him, but he kept adjusting his position to block her. When he started to growl and looked ready to pounce, she relented and backed away.
All she could do was watch from a distance as the alarm continued to howl. Doctor Midnight was in the decontamination area, donning some kind of helmet before his voice boomed over the intercom.
"All patients must be gagged before I enter."
What the hell kind of protocol is that?
The alarm went off because one of the patients was enduring a prolonged seizure. One of the healthy patients unceremoniously shoved a rag into the seizing patient's mouth - which was not safe or remotely acceptable for anyone having a seizure. Doctor Midnight didn't open the door until the other two patients were both gagged in their beds.
By the time the doctor entered to administer diazepam, the patient had been seizing for over five minutes, increasing the risk of status epilepticus and other dangerous complications.
But, why? Why did the patients have to be quarantined? Why did Doctor Midnight insist on gagging them before delivering even the most basic treatment? It didn't make any sense.
It makes sense if they're MTU employees. Maybe this is Doctor Midnight getting some revenge.
That wasn't right. She couldn't just let this stand.
"Bellatrix," Totem said as she entered from the elevator. "You are needed elsewhere."
"You expect me to leave after what I just saw?" she asked. "What kind of medical protocol requires patients to be gagged?"
"I understand your concern," she said calmly. "But the precautions here are all necessary. If you come with me, I shall explain on the way."
Caitlin wavered a few moments between standing her ground and leaving, but ultimately, staying here wasn't going to help anyone. Before she could remedy the situation, she needed to know what was happening.
So she went to the elevator, led by Hubris and followed by Totem, with an especially nasty bit of suspicion embedded in the pit of her stomach.
Before the doors even closed, she asked, "What was all that? With the gagging?"
"Those patients are all biologically related to a metahuman with speech-related powers," Totem explained. "The Metahuman Tactical Unit experimented on those three for over a year. We do not yet know the full effects of those experiments, so precautions are being taken."
It hadn't escaped Caitlin's notice that Totem had not only omitted the metahuman's name but was also vague about the meta-ability in question. But she'd recently let her anger drive her to some unfortunate choices lately, and she didn't want a repeat of that.
After all, the Comet had just been inundated with patients. Was it fair to expect Totem to know the name of every patient off the top of her head? Probably not.
Caitlin would consult the digital patient charts once she got back to her "office."
So, on to the other business at hand. She asked, "Where are you taking me?"
"To a patient only you can treat," Totem replied cryptically. "But before you meet her, you must put on your suit, Bellatrix."
-----
Hunter had unpacked Caitlin's Earth-1 possession as soon as he returned, sneaking into her room as she slept. His watched her for a little while, hoping that their next conversation would go better than their last. His plans to speak with her over breakfast, however, were foiled by reports of increased MTU activity along the west coast.
He couldn't ignore it, not with the proximity to the Comet. So he left to deal with it himself.
It was much worse than he'd thought.
In response to the Siege, the MTU had initiated global mobilization. And it wasn't just the MTU. All kinds of government agencies and private corporations were suddenly moving weapons and personnel. Even local law enforcement was out in full force, collecting any associates of known metahumans.
Zoom ordered the Cause to retreat completely underground. He couldn't risk his metas being caught, which meant desperate rescue missions needed to be taken off the table entirely. As a result, the Cause's network abandoned its intelligence gathering work, even the most remote monitoring posts.
Only a handful of metas could collect the kind of intelligence they needed to prepare for their next move. Totem's familiars could assist and blend in, unnoticed by counter-intelligence agents, but they wouldn't be enough.
Zoom spent the majority of the morning reassigning resources and crippling enemy supply lines. Slowing the MTU down would buy the Cause enough time to prepare.
Though, part of him knew he was also stalling. He was dreading the conversation he needed to have with Caitlin. It was far easier to burn cables and smash caravans than to face her again.
Which was why he was standing in her room in the middle of the day, knowing that she would be down in the Comet. Why is it that everything had to be coming to a head all at the same time?
"Hunter?"
Her voice made his heart jump into his throat. He turned to see her heading for her closet.
Somehow, she was even more beautiful then she had been just this morning.
"What are you doing in my room?" she asked.
"I came to drop something off," he replied.
"If you mean my clothing, I've already see it," she said. "Thank you."
"You're welcome," he said. "But, Caitlin, we need to talk about what comes next."
She crossed her arms, but otherwise didn't respond.
"If you are plan to keep it - the baby, I mean - there are things you should know," he said. "I thought it'd be easier to... I put all the data on this."
He held out a slim laptop, and she reluctantly walked over and took it.
"So, what?" she asked. "This is about genetic disorders in your family?"
It was a shrew question, and, admittedly, one he hadn't even considered.
"No, it's more general than that," he hedged. "And that laptop has been set up with an inter-dimensional intercom. It's not fully functional yet, but when it does - "
"I'll be able to talk to Earth-1?" she asked. "Why? Why would you suddenly be okay with me talking to my friends?"
He knew she was going to be suspicious of his motives. He couldn't blame her for that, but he also wasn't expecting the accusation in her voice to hurt him so deeply.
"Because, after you read what's on that computer, I think you're going to need them," he replied. "Caitlin, please, I - "
A blaring alarm interrupted him. Moments later, Blink appeared, running up the stairs to Caitlin's room.
"Sorry to interrupt," Blink said. "But Gigawatt and Geomancer have gone insane."
"I'll meet you at the usual location," he said to Blink.
She nodded before she ran back down the stairs.
"I have to deal with this," he said. "Whatever other work you have today, Bellatrix, it can wait. You need to read that first."
With that, he followed behind Blink, down the stairs and probably into the Comet, leaving an incredibly confused Caitlin in his wake.
Chapter notes: The title of this chapter, Bird Snare, is from the Maori name for the constellation Orion, Pewa-o-Tautoru, which means "Tautoru's Bird Snare."
Author notes (somewhat spoiler-y): This fic has previously mentioned dissociative disorders, specifically from Caitlin's perspective as a possible diagnosis for Hunter Zolomon/Zoom. While Caitlin, as a character, considers this a real possibility, I want to state here that that is simply not the case. Caitlin Snow considers the possibility that Hunter has a dissociative disorder because those were the insights inspired by her limited background in psychiatry/psychology.
I'm writing this note because I know that dissociative disorders are poorly represented and very often mishandled in pretty much all forms of media, and it's important to me that anyone reading Orion understands that this story is not meant to represent or describe someone living with a dissociative disorder.

"I'm Just Ken (Full Kenergy Version)" - Ryan Gosling - I unironically love this song and I am totally feeling the Kenergy. I'm not sure if I'm Kenough or not, though. 🤔 Would Ken think I am? Not sure. Answer unclear, try again later. 😉
"Snow on the Beach" - Taylor Swift (feat. more Lana Del Rey) - Language warning that nobody probably cares about but I always try to do my due diligence, what can I say? 😉 Anyway, I was stoked to see a more Lana version of this song, which I already loved! 💖
"Nightcall" - London Grammar - I fell in love with this version from a short but awesome Snowhunter vid by IdtProductions2!
"Untitled 1" - Keane - Mannnnn, I've loved this song for years. Just such a mellow and melancholy vibe. 💖
"You Are The Reason" - Calum Scott - There's just something about this song that I adore so much and I've nearly used it in a million and one vids but no idea/pairing has ever stuck. Maybe one day! 🤞😣🤞

Can we kiss forever?- Rip Hunter Appreciation Week, Day 2.
Hello everyone! I´m back again with the Rip fanfics for this amazing week to appreciate one my fav characters in the world. In this day we can do crossovers, Au´s, etc, and I´m going to do a crossover where Rip joins Team Flash and he fell in love with Caitlin Snow, one of my others fav characters. I hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
Rip´s P.O.V 
Joining Team Flash sometimes was the best thing I could ever done, but other times I start thinking “bollocks, what did I do?” I appreciate Barry, but when it´s about time travelling and the risks about it, he doesn´t listen and I have to fix the mess.
“I just don´t get it, it´s really that complicated to understand the risks of time travel?” I said frustrated entering to the room, Caitlin looked at me concerned. 
“Sometimes you don´t see the risks when you are feeling something. Right now Barry is feeling anger so he is not seeing the risks” Caitlin really brings the best of everything. 
“I´ve been through that, when I wanted to save my wife and my son, but now I see that time just happens, we can´t do anything about it” Caitlin let out a sigh. 
“Yeah, we can´t change the past, I can´t change my past” just like me, Caitlin lost the one she loved. 
“But you can change the future, you can be better” 
“So do you, and I really hope that you are still in my future” she said with a smile, a really contagious smile. I am a man who doesn´t smile a lot, but with her, I smile everytime.
“I hope the same” I looked at her eyes, so beautiful like the stars, I looked at her lips, lips that made me an addict, like a man in drugs. 
Our little moment was interrumpted by Cisco, perfect timing. 
“Hey Rip, Barry needs your help. Caitlin, Iris and I are going to investigate, would you like to join?” 
“Sure” Caitlin said, she gave me an one last smile and she left with Cisco. With a lot of thoughts about her in my head, I went with Barry. 
“What you need my help for?” I asked.
“I wanted to check how much the timeline changed”
“Barry, you can´t keep looking at the past”
“I know, but I want to destroy Reverse Flash so he can not destroy my life on the future. I had a lot of chances to do it, and I still do”
“You can get yourself erased! Think about your wife, about your family, about Caitlin!” Barry looked at me confused.
“What is Caitlin has to do with this?” 
“I´m just afraid that she gets hurt because your changes on the timeline, she got hurt enough by losing his husband”
“Or maybe you are afraid of losing her, don´t you think? Just like you lost your wife and son?” 
“I don´t know what I am feeling right now” 
“You are feeling love, and that´s okay, I´m sure that Caitlin feels the same”
“Why do you think that?”
“Because the way she looks at you, the way she smiles when you are around. You made her life better by joining us, even Killer Frost agrees” I started thinking about all the smiles, all the times where she healed me, the touches, how she gets worried about me.
“So, I should tell her what I feel?” Barry nodded, and then the alarm setted up. Caitlin, Iris and Cisco got attacked at Iris´s ofice. 
“We have to go, now” 
In a flash, we arrived, Iris and Cisco were cleaning up the mess, I got really worried and scared where I didn´t saw my Caitlin with them.
“Where is she? Where is Caitlin?” 
“Relax british guy, she is here” said Killer Frost voice.
“How is she?”
“She´s fine, thanks to me. I didn´t found Reverse Flash anywhere, so I guess I had nothing to do here” Killer Frost dissapeared, and Caitlin came in. When I saw her eyes and her hair back to normal, I hugged her, finally feeling calm.
“Thank God you are okay” I felt everyone eyes over us.
“We´ll leave you alone” Iris said, Cisco and Barry went out behind her.
“Why are you so worried about me?” Caitlin said looking at me, but not letting me go. 
“Because I care about you, more than you know”
“Well, I´m okay, without any harm”
“I know that you and Killer Frost can protect yourselves, but still. Miranda knew how to protect herself too, and she got killed anyway” Caitlin caressed my cheek. 
“It´s okay, I am okay, and with you I am more than okay” I smiled and we pressed our foreheads. 
“I love you, Caitlin Snow” 
“I love you, Rip Hunter. You are a time traveler, we can come back to this moment anytime, so can we kiss forever?” 
“I would love to” and we did, we kissed over and over again.
Caitlin and I, kissed forever.

Better To Be Fancy And Depressed Then Just Depressed 🥲.
But for real I can relate to this drawing ._. I feel bad for Soren, having to put up for difficult problems in his life and now his worst fear is coming true.
