Another very tricky question, it would seem. Caitlin wrinkles her nose a little in thought. "Uhhh, well..." she pauses then, brow creased. For her, it's just normal plus metahumans, but what's normal in her mind doesn't necessarily equate to what's normal in his. Or anyone else's, for that matter. "I don't know how to describe it. I'm from Central City so it's like...just a normal, boring city except that a few years ago, my boss was making a Particle Accelerator and it exploded, killing several people and forever changing others," she explains. Like me, she thinks, except that it kind of wasn't, was it? It was sort of Barry changing the timeline that gave Caitlin her powers, technically; she just doesn't remember it that way, obviously. It's complicated.

"A metahuman is just...a human with abilities that came from that explosion. There was one we called Weather Wizard; he could manipulate the weather. Make it do whatever he wanted," she explains, her voice also low to match his, because he's right. Discreet is much better in this instance. They don't know the other people in the group very well and they don't know how this kind of information might be taken if overheard. "I know someone who can run at a speed close to Mach 3," she adds. "People who can look through different timelines and see into the future. Make everything they touch decay into dust...instantly freeze something or turn rain into snow...those are metahumans." She slips in her own abilities at the end casually, testing the waters there. If he doesn't know that it's her that can do it, maybe she can get an honest reaction, if she gets a reaction at all.
