[Violet knows these kinds of blurs from when Dash the ANNOYING could first run - and there're plenty of Parr family videos that prove it.

Then, of course, there was Quicksilver's show-off blur.

Now, there is... this guy's. She's surrounded by speedsters, on and off Earth.

Home is where mach 3 is hit, amirite?]

Uh, it's not really Christmas anymore.

And... I don't think you really have a choice about leaving.

[Sinister villain lauding your helplessness as a prisoner? Or little girl trying to be helpful? YOU DECIDE.]

[A super villain, with a tiny little voice like that? No way, villains always sound growlier than that. Unless they're Joker. Then they just cackle nonstop.

Besides, this is Wally West. He never assumes the worst.]

One, well duh, but I'm pretty sure you mean 'not yet.' Christmas is tomorrow.

Two - actually I'm not following you on that one. Why can't I leave?

[Never heard of Babymind, the evil genius in diapers, have you?

But, hey, this place needs a good dose of optimism! Or a dose of it.]

No, I'm pretty sure it's over. It happened almost a week ago.

[Weird, huh? It was early fall when she left HER world. And, suddenly Christmas!]

There's some sorta thing keeping us here. No one knows a way around it.

[He's already got an evil gorilla on his hit list. Let's not add children just to make him feel guilty.]

So, this evil thing keeping us here. Are we talking alien robots, supervillain, psychic gorillas...?

[You are a DC-hero, Wally. =/ Guilt complexes and trauma are inevitable.]

The thirty-first. Weird, huh? It was fall where I was.

[Wow, and here's someone else that understands the basic evil mastermind line-up. Her dad would LOVE IT here.]

I don't reallllly know, but it has something to do with a computer?

First I can't find the toy the kids want, then I run into the Ultra-Humanite - I so did not need a dose of time travel to make my day more exciting.

Evil robot it is. Any idea if smashing it means we get to go home?

[Good god he's starting to sound like Shayera. Note to self: spend time with women who aren't supers.]

[Violet shrugs, but her Edna-designed suit is so faaaaaaaabulous that it sounds like the whisper of a pixie rather than an actual noise.

What does this mean for the wearables?

AWKWARD SILENCE.]

I don't think that's possible. It's kinda the whole station.

[Yup. Talk about the harbinger of good news!]

Um.

[Yeah.]

What's an Ultra-Humanite?
