I’m sorry, can we just talk bout what I KNOW other people had to be thinking during this scene, namely: THE FUTURE, by which I mean ALL WESTALLEN FAMILY CHRISTMASES FROM HERE UNTO ETERNITY. Iris drags Barry around because she’s so excited about them exchanging gifts! Probably the tiny private gift exchange on the 24th, just for the two of them, becomes a thing until nobody else is surprised that they’ve already given each other their gifts at least 12 hours before they start unwrapping everyone else’s. And really it’s for the best, because now that they’re together, thank-you hugs will inevitably turn into thank-you kisses and look, okay, it’s adorable, but Barry and Iris have a tendency to forget that anybody else is in the room with them? Like. That is a lot of kissing and fond gazing. So much. Sooooo much. Come on, Barry, it’s your turn to open a present next. Barry. Barry. Baaaaarry. Stop smiling at Iris and open your present.
Sippin’ on classic West family eggnog and holding hands. Cuddling up under a blanket. Iris putting her cold toes on Barry and making him squawk like she’s done since they were thirteen years old.
Look, anyway, THIS GIFSET IS THEIR FUTURE AND NOBODY CAN TELL ME OTHERWISE.
