Helping a new arrival earlier had distracted Sara from the knowledge that, once again, timelines had played tricks on her.

She doesn't have a distraction now, and so she can be found sipping a cup of coffee pensively.

"........oh God. There were pictures."

"Bart? Oh my god, how have you been?" It's been so long since she last saw him--it brings a smile to her face.

Which fades at his next question. "Barry joined the Speed Force back in February, bar-time." Grief, muted but still present, can be seen on her face.

"Oh, I've been busy, there's all this stuff going on, and Superboy got beat up and..."

And there goes Bart's heart, broken swiftly.

"Oh. He did? Oh."

"He did," she says quietly. "He received warning, and made his goodbyes here." She smiles softly. "He said to tell you he was proud of you--and he knew you would do well."

Bart straightens under the praise.

"How...how long ago was that, Bar Time?"

[lvpd_sidle]

"About ten months." In that time, she had grieved deeply...and moved on, because that is what Barry would have wanted.

"Oh."

Bart tries to wrap his mind around this.

"Dang."

[lvpd_sidle]

"I'm sorry you missed him," she says quietly.

"Me too."

Don't worry, Bart you'll see him soon.

"So, hows things?"
