Some would say... the reverse

There was a flicker of energy on the street, a crackle like lightning in an empty space just outside STAR Labs.

For a second after, it was quieter; then with an almighty rumble and flash, a clear ball appeared on the pavement. Treated glass filled out the hemisphere around a bare metal frame, just large enough to fit a person inside, with a single seat and a single occupant. A woman with short, black hair and dark skin sat within it.

She shifted, long bare legs pressed together, and slender, shaking arms crossed over her chest, doing what felt like an utterly inadequate job of concealing her nudity. Nervously she glanced around the empty square, before leaning forwards; she reluctantly used one hand to tap the controls, before drawing it back.

"So that's... 2013, right on target," she murmured, then crossed her arms again. "Let's see how you like it..."

Part of the sphere opened up; she glanced around again, then squeaked, and slipped out of it. At the tap of a button the sphere vanished with some kind of cloaking device, leaving the naked woman out in the open.

Squealing, she hurried for cover.

Iris paced a corridor in STAR Labs, cheeks burning. She was 90% sure she was still dressed, even if the power-suppressants meant she could never be sure, but that didn't change the facts. On top of her previous few escapades of her powers rendering her naked in the middle of the city, now there was... this. Her brief foray into helping people, stopping the truck from crashing, had only led to photos of her being circulated. Thankfully most were slightly grainy phone photos, but it wasn't hard to imagine what was barely concealed with the fuzz of the camera. And then there were the high quality photos, the few that were around, that meant pretty much the whole city would have seen her tits.

Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck...

She chewed her lower lip, nervously crossing her arms. After a second she glanced at her watch; it was a couple of minutes before the pills wore off again, so that would be a good time to take one, ensure her clothes didn't dissolve into bubbles again.

She'd just streaked in front of her city. Iris squeaked. She'd just flashed dozens of people, soon to be in the thousands with how much press a confirmed meta-human would likely get. With how much it had already gotten.

She coudln't help but cross her arms. Ok, she was still fairly certain she was dressed, but if she ever knew she was dressed her powers would kick in and dissolve her clothes, so... Iris squirmed slightly. One day she'd love to actually feel like she didn't have everything exposed again. One day.

"So. You're the Flash."

Iris couldn't help a panicked yell as she whirled around; Harrison Wells had been behind her, wheelchair approaching surprisingly silently. Something seemed to amuse him.

"I-it's not funny!" Iris squealed. Wells chuckled.

"Forgive me," he said. "If you knew..."

She didn't particularly want to puzzle out what he meant by that. Awkwardly she rubbed her legs together.

"Am- am I still..." Iris said, self-conscious under his gaze.

"You still appear dressed, yes," Wells said. "Though I would suggest you head back to Cisco and Caitlin. It sounded like they wanted to talk to you."

"Th-thanks," Iris said.

She nodded, and walked quickly past him. What was the phrase, fake it until you make it? If she could pretend she felt like she was still dressed, maybe... maybe it would be easier. She'd have to out in public anyway, in the lab people knew about her... condition, but out there if she went around crossing her arms 24/7 people would think she was bad.

Until her pills wore off and she ended up naked, that was, but she really didn't want it to go that far.

She walked into the main room of the labs, idly pulling out one of her power-suppressing pills as she did. It was almost time-

"Might want to hold off on that," Cisco said.

"What?!" Iris said.

"Construction site not far from here," Caitlin said. "Sounds like a crane's collapsed, there's a fair few workers trapped inside one of the buildings they were working on and no one's going to be able to get to it for a while with all the accelerator-related problems over the city."

"Be child's play for you though," Cisco said. "Just bubble up a wall, and hey presto, everyone's got a way out."

Iris squeaked.

"Th-that was a one time thing!" Iris said. "I- I didn't sign up to be some kind of naked superhero or anything, I just- I wanted to help, I didn't think about..."

"You don't still want to help?" Cisco said.

"I- I do, but..." Iris began.

Her voiced trailed off, cheeks burning. Ok, she had the power to get those people out, but... She'd seen how many photos of her had started being spread around after just one incident. How many more would there be, and how many better views, if she kept on doing it?

And as she squirmed in indecision, she suddenly felt the horribly familiar feeling of bubbles against her skin as her current pill wore off. Iris squealed, hunching forwards a little, finding herself yet again nude in front of Cisco and Caitlin, trying vainly to cover up with a hand over her tits and her other arm trying to cover both her chest and her pussy, doing nothing to hide the curves of her hips or her panicked expression.

Not again!
