"Good. As long as we're on the same page." Barry said lovingly and offered her a soft smile. But he looked increasingly concerned as she explained about Eddie.
"Huh. Sounds like someone else I know." Cisco said pointedly at Barry who had the decency to look cowed. "Can't people just leave the timeline alone?" But the little burst of bitterness changed to shock quickly. "Of course he's somewhere else... what do you mean dead?"
This got both Harry and Barry's attention. "Cisco... don't you remember? Eddie killed himself to stop Eobard Thawne from being born to save my life." Barry said slowly and Cisco grew pale. Harry distinctly remembered explaining how temporal aberrations worked to them when Thawne showed up again later because he hadn't yet been erased and had been in the NSF when it happened. So he knew Eddie was dead.
"That's exactly what happens in my nightmare. But dude, Eddie was transferred to New York like a year ago. It was this huge thing. The force had a going away party for him and everything." Cisco said, looking between Barry and Claire. "Iris cried a lot because he up and dropped the engagement."
