[ open ] call it your 2.0, your rebirth, whatever
who: cisco + anyone!
what: catch-all + tdm prompts + fajro prompts
when: february
where: various places!
warnings: will add as needed
I. DREAM A LITTLE DREAM
[ Cisco thought that the crystal caves sounded exactly like something from a fantasy series he had loved as a child, so of course, he dragged Eddie to go and see them with him. There had been nothing ominous about the place, at the time. It isn't until a few days later that Cisco's dreams start to show the sign of outside influence. They become vivid, surreal, and most importantly, he starts having guests. A few times he'll have a passing thought about a friend before falling asleep, only to run into them in his dream. He's no stranger to unusual dreams, and - after what had happened in October - not even a stranger to encountering other people in them.
But it's still pretty damn weird. ]
You see that, right? It's not just me?
[ Cisco asks the question to whoever is standing next to him, pointing down an empty city street at the looming figure of what is, unmistakably, a Godzilla-sized robotic panda. ]
II. CLEANING HOUSE
[ Cisco had rolled his eyes at first at the idea of a whole holiday based around cleaning. What could be less fun? He's always been somewhat inclined to keep stuff. After all, you never know what use it could be later. He spends plenty of his time scavenging the things other people left behind in the abandoned parts of the city, for materials and parts for his work.
But once he and Eddie decide to share the same room, he realizes he is going to have to get rid of at least some of his stuff, to make room. So he reluctantly starts, only to find himself getting more and more into the task. He can be seen either having a cute little yard sale to get rid of various items (clothing, books, etc.), or else taking what remains after the sale down to the bonfires by the river. ]
III. CLEARING THE AIR
[ Along with everyone else in the Quarantine, as the month progresses, he finds himself dwelling on resentments from his past. Unfortunately for Cisco, most of those resentments pertain to people who aren't even here. Once the 15th rolls around, he finds that his sense of taste has vanished completely. A few conversations with others tell him that this is probably something to do with the holiday, that he needs to clear the air.
But what is he supposed to do, when the people he's feeling resentful towards aren't even here?
So Cisco can be found all that week making his way around town, sitting in a park or perhaps at a bar, slump-shouldered and wan and uncomfortable, needing (but not knowing it) someone to talk to. A good heart-to-heart will put things right, but he's not aware of that yet.
He is also, despite his distraction, more than happy to listen to others' woes, or any resentments held against him. ]

Whatever you say, babe. Whatever you say.
[Eddie's grinning, though, as he continues to work on getting everything sorted out and put into the cupboards. He can definitely imagine how the two of them could manage sex even with all the stuff piled up on the bed, but he's also aware that now isn't really the time. Still, he's enjoying flirting while they make this room something they share, it feels good, natural, like something that doesn't have an expiry date. Something that will go on for a long time and keep being enjoyable and everything he wants out of a relationship.
When Cisco comments on his underwear drawer and then casually mentions the item he's putting on a shelf, Eddie glances up and sees what it is. For a moment, he feels a rush of excitement as he looks at the box and the way Cisco is holding it, putting it beside the photo album he'd gotten from the maze. Eddie still doesn't entirely understand why he got the ring from the maze, or what it is about the ring that makes Cisco smile like that, in that soft, private way that's a little different from his usual smiles, but....well, he has some ideas. Ideas that make his stomach flutter with anxiety and excitement and longing despite knowing it's way too early to be thinking about...
So he's not going to think about it.]
Mmmm, okay. That can be our cupboard for the really important stuff, you know? Sentimental stuff.
[A pause, and then, blue eyes on Cisco's face.]
I really like that smile. Seriously, I'm so curious...

[ Something about that makes Cisco feel weightless with happiness. He knows, understands why there are people in this place who plan on returning to their own worlds, sooner or later. Some wanted to, some felt they had a duty to. But for him, there's an immense comfort in knowing that this world is his new home. That he can acquire sentimental items, and keepsakes, and not think about if he could bring them with him.
When Eddie asks about his smile, Cisco is caught off guard. He hadn't even realized he was smiling. He brings his hands up to his cheeks, and surprised and bashful gesture, feels how warm his cheeks are. For a moment, he thinks about telling Eddie about the vibe, but it sticks in his throat. So, instead, he shakes his head, eyes sparkling, and says, playfully: ]
Uh-uh. Sorry, Detective Thawne. You gotta let me maintain a little mystery.
[ And he apologizes by way of a quick cheek kiss before he goes back to helping Eddie sort through the accumulation of belongings on the bed. ]

For a moment, Eddie's silent, and then he laughs, a warm rich thing, and when Cisco moves to start going through the things on the bed, Eddie instead moves over toward him, gently pushes him onto the foot of the bed, where there's barely enough room for the both of them.
And of course they'll get back to sorting through Eddie's things, but for now? Eddie just wants to kiss him for a while.]
