[There goes that brilliant mind of hers down the rabbit hole that Iris spent years trying to keep her away from. It's too late now, to try and shove it all back in the closet, especially if it's been nearly a year for Nora at this point. Iris takes a second, to collect her thoughts and steady her shaking hands. Lying is what brought them to this point, and as much as it scares her to think about, it's something Nora needs to know about. It's all a part of her history. It was Iris's job to teach her it.]

I don't know why he hasn't come back.. It's all... complicated and I know that's not what you want to hear. The speed force is its own thing, Nora. You don't explain it, you don't understand it, it is what it is.

[Iris has spent enough nights begging the speed force to please, god please just give her Barry back to believe that it doesn't actually care about any of them.]

But I think if anyone could find him, it would be you.
