Fics like An Archipelago of Time

It occurs to Barry- would anyone actually notice if they stopped slowing themself down, got up and left and spent a few weeks in speedtime actually doing something productive? They look around the room. There is no sound, not when sound is currently travelling slower than they are. Clark is intently focused on Bruce’s words, hands folded on the table. Diana is blinking, hands sitting neatly in her lap. Bruce is mid-word, one hand gesturing in front of him. Arthur is staring out the window. Hal has his phone out on the table, the pixels halfway through loading the next frame of what looks like a Google search. Barry very gently stands up, pushes their chair back and pushes it back in. No one so much as glances in their direction. Bruce is still on the same syllable. Diana is still in the middle of blinking. Hal’s phone is still refreshing the same frame, and not a single pixel has moved. The answer, very clearly, is no.
