No, I didn't know.

Your people aren't big on sharing information.

[causational]

I had no idea when you left Central City except that it was after I died.

And the fact I'm dead is kind of something we need to keep quiet.

[And this sucks, it's the worst, because this means that Snart is going to have something to hang over his head now, if by some miracle Eobard doesn't see his screw up on the network.]

[hypothermic]

So how'd you kick it?

Don't tell me you're just another dead cop statistic. I can't see you going down that easy.

[causational]

I don't know if that's a compliment or an insult. But no.

I shot myself. Because if I hadn't, everyone I cared about would've died. Which is why it really, seriously needs to be kept a secret here too.

[hypothermic]

There's more to this than you're letting on.

Spit it out.

Eobard Thawne, aka The Reverse Flash, is a time traveling descendant of mine who has a grudge against The Flash, and wanted to kill him and everyone he cared about. Barry couldn't stop him in time. Someone had to do something, so I did.

He's my descendant, I've never had children yet, and now I never will. Problem solved.

[hypothermic]

That's a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

Couldn't have just gotten yourself fixed?

[causational]

Seriously?

I think Eobard could've pretty easily killed Iris and Joe and Barry and Cisco and everyone else before I could even call for an appointment for a vasectomy.

[hypothermic]

And you couldn't have pointed the gun a little lower?

Then again, if I had to choose... I'd probably eat it too.

[causational]

Oh my GOD.

[After a moment, though, he registers the secondary meaning to that - given the choice, Snart would eat it too.

He should be more surprised.]

I didn't really stop to consider anything else. I just did it.

[hypothermic]

If you were the type of guy to think ahead, you wouldn't have become a cop.

Just saying.

[causational]

I guess you've got a point there.

And again, it really needs to be kept a secret here. Eobard doesn't know that we defeated him, and I think he'd throw a tantrum if he did.
