[ And when people walk down the halls come morning, they will find this giant, hulking piece of armor just standing there. The lights are off, so clearly whoever wears it is no longer inside. Could they be far? Only time will tell. ]

Blast you?! What?! When have I ever done that?!

The second fight. In the park. Cisco gave you some big speech about how Caitlin was still in there, and you just...

Did you speed run yourself into a wall because there was no second fight. Cisco didn't give me some big speech about how Caitlin is still in here.

[Savitar, are you feeling all right?]

[He blinks at her, staring with disbelief. One good eye, one bad eye. ]

Are you seriously trying to pull that trick one me? For real?

[She does not like this game you're playing and all but growls at him]

What. Trick.

[Because the only trick he's going to see if he keeps this up is which is fast? ice or superspeed?]

We ditched Team Flash and went off on our own.

That's insane, why would I do that?

Because killing Iris is a stupid idea.

[Fight her, Savitar.]

You don't win. Think about it. You don't win in any capacity.

It's not the only idea. It's not my only plan. And no matter what happens, I win.

[She snorts because that's not his only plan. Right. And she's full of warm and fuzzies on this side of things]

Why are you even like this? God, I liked you better when we were in Sweden.

I have never even been to Sweden.

[Oh. OH. She starts laughing and laughing hard]

[ For real, Frost? ]

What the hell is so funny?

You must be from a different timeline, Savitar. And if this is you from that timeline, I think you from my timeline definitely, actually won.

I seriously doubt it. You'll betray him eventually, too.

[She snorts again at that]

Yeah, real likely. He's the one that got us--

[Savitar, meet Caitlin Snow again]

--to get along.

How wonderful for you. It won't last.

[Caitlin is a lot more gentle than Frost. She looks at him, remembering him this way.]

It's okay, Savitar. It's okay to be afraid. To not want to hurt anymore. It takes a long time. It took us a long time to not hurt any more. And we became stronger, better, because of it. Because of finding ourselves, our own identity, and to not hurt anymore.

[ The Savitar from her world was a bit more willing to listen to her than this one. WONDER WHY. ]

Shut up. Stop. You're not better, you're not stronger. Whatever you think you have over me, it's not real.

[Not her Savitar. Caitlin is stronger against that.]

We're better. We're stronger. Not from having something over the other. It's possible to stop hurting.

For what? For you?

You stop hurting for you, Savitar. Not me.

My plan will do just fine for that.

[She looks sad]

No...it really won't.

Do you even know what it was, beyond killing Iris?

Your attempt to be everywhere at once through time? Making sure that Barry will never recover from the darkness so that he becomes you?

[Yeah, she's heard the spiel before]

It won't work. It won't give you what you want.
