( if there's one thing that rip is good at, it's his uncompromising stubbornness. yes, he thanks her for her sentiments, and sara can tell that he means it, sure. that much is genuine — as genuine as her own statement was, her innate desire for him to stick around. selfish, perhaps, considering he leaves of his own accord, surely to figure things out for himself.

he'd said that he'd taught them all he could, but sara still kind of thinks that the two of them could learn from each other in equal amounts.

nevertheless, he's keen to change the subject, so sure, she'll oblige him, even if it's with a small sigh. )

Well, Kendra is here, but she doesn't know about what we did to Vandal Savage — even though I'm sure us being here is a big enough clue that things go smoothly. Mick's from the same point in time as me, so don't try getting anything else out of him. Jax is from a little earlier than the two of us, but not by much. ( each one gets ticked off on her fingers, like she's counting chickens in a coop. in a way, she kind of is. )

Leonard's — well, I'm sure you know. He's from the Vanishing Point — The Oculus.

( right after he'd made her turn tail and drag mick out of there. right after the big ol' boom. talk about things that are sigh-worthy. )

Quite a crew.

[Her estimation of him isn't wrong, at least so far as his stubbornness is concerned. But she's equally surmised that he means to move on, and would continue to push to that end; his place on the team, on the Legends, is for the time being a closed matter in Rip's eyes.

Fortunate that she seems to agree, if only for the moment.

He listens to the rundown closely, some names far more welcome than others as she runs through them all. His grip on the silverware tightens at Mick's name in particular, again at Leonard's. To say that they had not been on good terms at their last meeting would be underselling it a bit.]

And does Leonard know what part he's played in the affair with Eobard Thawne? [He has patience enough to ask that much, at least. Although for Rip and Sara those events happened after Leonard's death, Leonard's personal timeline would run differently. The question is merely if his history has been altered yet, or if somehow he'd been brought here from a point before Eobard went back into the past.]

No. ( a hasty response — and a little premature. ) I mean — I haven't said anything to him. ( there's a displeased hum as she considers this. ) Guess I can't speak for Mick, but I'm pretty sure that he'd rather keep all that in the past.

( as would she. sure, she understands why mick would do what he did — "i miss him, too," sara had said, and her own relationship with leonard in their world paled in comparison to the bond between the two criminals. her own experiences with the spear's temptations, her sister, really made her realize how difficult it must have been.

he'd betrayed them, and sara's anger had come from the captain side of her, but her empathy still runs deep. besides, as far as sara's concerned, they've got a lot bigger, dinosaur-shaped things to worry about. )

You have a right to be mad at them, but don't be surprised when Leonard's clueless. ( especially because they'd wiped his mind after all of that happened, men in black-style. )
