i just wanna have fun and (get rowdy)

by pettigrace

Summary:

oliverking: the semester started a week ago and this gc already is a mess do you want it to crash
irisbest: how did we even get so many members within a week
ronnieraymond: penguins
pipes: explain
ronnieraymond: we huddle like them
heatwave: what did you smoke dude

(Oliver founds Central City University's LGBT+ club and, by extension, starts a groupchat. Maybe he should have accounted for the fact that Sara would take captainship over it. But what does Snart think of her stealing his title? And most importantly: Will Hartley ever get laid?) 

Takes place October 2017 - January 2018.

Notes:

I'm having a freaking writer's block and to fight it y'all are getting a groupchat based on one of my AU ideas

title is from liam payne's "strip that down"!

Some notes before you head into this series:
- The focus lies on characters from before the 2017/2018 season since I started writing this in late 2017. Newer characters are, however, frequently mentioned as the story develops.
- The version of ColdFlash featured here has a smaller age difference than canon would have, but I understand it could come across as more troubling here since Bar is 20/21 to Snart's 28/29.
- There are mentions of problematic media, such as Harry Potter or Twilight, for example, spread throughout the story. I understand the problems with their contents by now, but at the time of writing I was unaware of them/they generally weren't known. I do not endorse the writers' behaviour and don't want to advertise for them.
- There's mentions of homo-, bi-, queer- and transphobia, as well as racism and ableism. These are, obviously, seen as negatively. The same goes for self-deprecating jokes, which are a symptom of depression for the character in question.
- You need to expect many meta references. I started explaining them in later chapters; I'll probably add the explanation to the ones before once I have time.

And now I hope you have fun!
