[Because she knows you, young lady. She's been there for every day of her life and Iris knows exactly how stubborn and impulsive she can be. Nora got that from both her parents, so she really never stood a chance.
Just barely, Iris resists the urge to wrap her fingers around her daughter's wrist like a leash, like that will actually do anything against a speedster that wants to leave.]
Maybe you need to take a minute to calm down. I'm not saying you don't need your dad, because you do, honey. It's not fair that you never got to know him before and it's not fair to leave it like this but sometimes the best thing you can do is take a step back. I know it's a hard concept to you speedsters, but taking a break isn't a bad thing. Regroup. Really think about what you're going to do next.
