Clint/Atlas --> Faceless Mook #1 { Sparkly }
"You know, pal..." Clint swung out at the robber, clocking him in the side with a vicious cross punch. "I've always wondered what happens when someone robs a phone store." Jab, jab. The hooded man was hardly breaking a sweat. This was a routine pick up, not even a meta, so he knew it wouldn't be long. Then he could go home, watch that dinosaur show with Pip, and get to his homework. Thankfully, he'd had a day off from his job, so that he could go out and patrol for a bit.
"So...does that make me an iWitness? I could definitely use the money." Clint's fist slammed into the wall right next to the robber's shoulder, and the vigilante swore in his mind, pulling his from the crumbling brick and mortar.
He was still getting used to that.
Clinton Barshaw had been in excellent physical shape for a long time. He couldn't particularly afford to go to a gym, but his school had a weight room he was allowed to use, and use it he had. But there was a startling difference between lifting some weights and taking boxing lessons, and whatever had actually happened to him.
It was a blessing, of course, considering his 'hobby'. But it was also yet another bundle of stress for the young man to handle. He had no control over his powers, so it was frightening to be around his little girl and his mother.
He had gotten distracted, though, and the robber's elbow found its way to his stomach. Clint wheezed as the air was knocked from his lunges, stunned for a second.

Atlas/Clint --> Mook #1, Cisco { Sparkly } By the time Cisco had arrived on scene, Atlas was wrapping things up.
Literally.
The hooded man didn't exactly have a surplus of handcuffs to go around...or even a single pair of handcuffs at all, to be totally honest. So he did what he could, tying up the robber's hands behind his back with a phone chord.
"Well...uh...that's good enough, I guess." Atlas shrugged, and then glanced in the direction of the store employees. "Did anyone call the cops?"
He hoped so. The man fiddled with his hood some, making sure his face stayed covered up. He didn't have some sort of fancy voice changer, so he just tried to change it on his own, like he did when reading story books.

Naturally, Atlas wheeled around at the prospect of another fight. Mentally, he was swearing, saying ugly words such as poop, and darn, and maybe even throwing around a dang or two. Such a rebel.
"Hey, buddy, is this some guy you know?" A thumb was jerked in the direction of the tied up robber. "Because I've already caught him, and I kind of have things to do. You're not gonna win this, so just sit here and chill out until the police arrive, okay?" He did not want to drag this out with another fight. Pip was expecting him home, and he had finals soon.

Atlas/Clint --> Cisco { Sparkly }"Ohhhhhh."
Well, that made sense.
Atlas took a second to assess the scene; tied up guy, hole in the wall, everyone looking terrified...
Yeah, he could understand that.
"Nah, this guy decided to rob the store, and chose the wrong time to do it. So I tied him up." The vigilante cracked a grin, then, barely visible under the shade of his hood.
"I guess he's still getting his cell phone, right? His plan worked out after all!"

"Okay, but." Atlas's curiosity got the better of him, then. He couldn't just ignore the weirdness, after all. Well, he could, but he shouldn't. "You came here, totally expecting to stop me. How did you know what was going on? You don't exactly look like the police." It was just too bizarre of a situation to be a coincidence, so he went with the next logical assumption:
This guy had come here looking for him on purpose.
"Who are you?"

Atlas/Clint ---> Vibe/Cisco { Sparkly }"Okay, cool. Vibe. Got it." Atlas figured that this was a reasonable enough introduction and nodded in approval. "I guess you run around, stopping these guys too?" Did this Vibe guy know about his sudden surge of strength? As cool as it was, Clint was scared of it a little. This wasn't something that protein and hard work could do. Should he ask him? Conflicted, he looked back over at the other hero.

Atlas/Clint ---> Vibe/Cisco { Sparkly }Atlas nodded, then, decided. "So, do you and your friends happen to know why I can do that?" Atlas gestured toward the fist-sized hole in the formerly solid brick wall. "That? That isn't normal." Then he amended his statement, trying to give it a more positive spin. "Useful, of course. But definitely out of the ordinary."

Atlas/Clint ---> Vibe/Cisco { Sparkly }"Sort of? I hear it thrown around on the news a lot." Atlas answered, then shrugged a little. "Don't know what they actually are, though. Criminals, from what I've heard."

Barry was hit square in the side. He grunted and glared at Ross before running him back to S.T.A.R. Labs, where he tossed Ross into the pipeline. ”You’ll be in here until I say or until you give me answers.”

Ross nodded, eyes wide. His breath was shaky.

Had he been to quick to jump to a conclusion? Barry didn’t know. Closing the Pipeline doors, Barry pulled off his cowl and walked out into the cortex. He hadn’t noticed the new person in the area until it was too late. Another person knew he was the flash. “Oh.. Cisco, I caught the guy who hurt Blue. He’s in the pipeline. Where is she? Is she okay?”

“I was just making sure, Blue. That’s all. Are you feeling okay? Hurting at all?” Barry asked curiously, walking over to her.

"Nope." Blue said, shaking her head. "I feel fine. In fact, I feel fabulous."

Atlas/Clint ---> Vibe/Cisco { Sparkly }"Is there no way to fix it?" A knot of apprehension wormed its way into Atlas's belly, and a small frown appeared on his face. He wanted to be a hero, but not at the cost of breaking small things on accident like he had been lately. "Or...you know. Control it, maybe? I broke a frying pan this morning, man. I'm not used to this skillet all." Okay so maybe he wasn't scared enough to leave that alone.
