He tried asking Roy about these things… if the older hero knew why Wally avoided talking about the things he liked and why he seemed so reluctant to stray from the group, but Red Arrow seemed just as perplexed by these observations as him.
Kaldur had refrained from confronting the Flash on such things, feeling it would be seen as a betrayal to talk to Wally’s mentor before talking to the boy himself.
But how do you approach someone about such things?
And then there was the fact that Kaldur’s abilities seemed to scare Wally.
Kaldur had found that Wally flinched every time he used his electricity with his water guns. He never complained about them or even mentioned that he feared it, but it was clear as day. The first time he had met Kid Flash as Aqualad and used the attack the speedster freaked out and stumbled away from him. Kid Flash had tried to hide the fact that the electricity frightened him, but the trembling was obvious. That and the fact that he refrained from being less than four feet from him gave a clear indication on how he felt.
Even when they became a team a few years later Kaldur had found that Wally still flinched whenever his arm’s lit up with the electrical currents. He felt a little guilty about the fact that he tested his friends fear when they sparred, silently begging his friend to tell him the truth. Wally never did though.
On this he did ask Flash whether he had a bad experience with electricity in the past.
The Flash had been very surprised and said that ‘no’ there hadn’t been anything that he could recall happening to Kid Flash that would warrant such a reaction from him.
Wally’s cynical nature, avoidance of talking about the things he liked, refusing to leave the group and his fear of electricity were all things that Kaldur had found he simply couldn’t explain no matter how long he paid attention. The strange tendencies hardly seemed related in any way, but they were all worrisome.
It troubled him even more when Black Canary told him that Wally refused to talk about the failsafe exercise. Everyone else eventually spoke with her about their feelings, but Wally had been adamant about not discussing it.
It unnerved him the slightest bit that Wally also seemed to be the only one not affected by the exercise.
