[ it's easier once he tries to break the tale into parts ]
So what we knew was this, Eobard Thawne was the Reverse Flash, he went back in time to kill Barry who was a kid, failed - we'll get to that and because he was pissed, killed Barry's mom and since he was stuck without his speed and out of his time, he killed the actual Wells, used some creepy tech to take his face and identity and set out to create the Flash to use his speed, he created the condition, the explosion, everything that happened was planned. All of us were just - means to an end. Now, Thawne wants to go home, he told Barry that he - future - Barry - went back in time to save his...child self and ruined his plans. Thawne offers him a deal, Barry will run fast enough to create a tear in time and space and send him back to his timeline and in return, he could go back in time to save his mom.
[ with all the mess with zoom and earth-2, this all seems like it happened years ago ]
Barry went back but he - didn't change the timeline, he didn't save his mom. he did save his younger self and so Thawne's plans went to hell. he was - angry. we finally stopped only when - Eddie shot himself. He killed - himself. He was Thawne's ancestor and when he died, Thawne was erased from the timeline.
[ the night comes back in a flash, Iris screaming, Thawne disappearing, Eddie dying on the floor ]
before he died, I got the chance to talk to him, I told I remembered him killing me. He said - it wasn't a dream. He said I was - well. Like Barry. a meta-human, that I could - see through the vibrations of the universe - the multiverse, we later found out. He said he was excited for me, that my destiny is great, shaped by him and that I have to remember those powers were given to me by him. that he did it all out of love.
[ he looks at his beer and finishes it ]
Barry named me. You asked. I'm Vibe. But I'm - I can't be proud of what I have, these powers, they always feel like traces of him. They always feel like I'm channeling him and I know that there is a darkness hidden in them.
[ if he makes the wrong choices. he saw what he could become. reverb. the one eobard thawne would be proud of, really. ]
His darkness. I don't control them, I don't know if I want to. Every time I use them, I remember him, it's like he's always there. There are traces of him in my powers and I have the potential to become something like him. Someone - terrible.
