>>98327028Imagine, if you will, that you spent your entire life idolizing one person. That you learnt everything about this one person and wanted nothing more than to be like that person. That's Thawne, he researched Barry, studied Barry, even got surgery to look like Barry, and aimed to use his incredible intellect to learn the source of Barry's powers. But he had neglectful parents, an annoying younger sibling and society's pressure on him, to a self-centered and sociopathic individual like Thawne that ought to irritate you. Then you get rejected from your dream job of studying the Speed Force, the one thing connecting you and all your dreams. Of course, that doesn't stop you, you find a way to replicate Barry's accident and get his powers anyway, because you are better than them, you always were. Now you're in charge, now you rule over everyone because there is no one out there that can stop you, all those people that laughed at you, that stood in your way, they're nothing to you. Now Thawne can do whatever he wants now, as far as he's concerned he's won. But then, The Flash comes from the past, it's a dream come true, your childhood hero has come to meet you. only, he isn't there to shake your hand or congratulate you, he sees you as some criminal, another rogue, and he beats you. Your hero, your idol, the one thing that has pushed you onwards over all those years, beats you, crushes you, humiliates you, locks you away and runs off back to his time like it was nothing. He was everything to you, but he saw you as nothing. You'd hate that, you'd hate to be seen like that. So you'll become the most prevalent force in his life, the thing that drives him forwards whether he likes it or not, you'll ruin his life the same way he did yours. You'll become a part of Flash's life, for good or ill...
