Canon
PRE-META Caitlin and Cisco meet for the first time in S.T.A.R. Labs when Cisco is hired in January 2013. Cisco is given a tour by Hartley Rathaway, who immediately feels threatened by Cisco and establishes an acrimonious relationship with him, in spite of Cisco's friendly demeanour. Caitlin remarks casually that Hartley seems to have met his match in Cisco's brilliance and introduces herself. Cisco likes Caitlin immediately and they become friends, along with Caitlin's boyfriend (and later fiancé) Ronnie Raymond. The three of them become really close friends and work together with "Harrison Wells" on the particle accelerator. In December they are ready to launch, but something fails and causes an explosion, which kills Ronnie as he tries to stop it.

Following the catastrophe and its effects on Central City, all the employees leave S.T.A.R. Labs with only Caitlin and Cisco remaining with "Dr. Wells", who is now in a wheelchair. Caitlin and Cisco are there for each other as they mourn Ronnie, and a few weeks later Wells brings Barry Allen to the labs for the three of them to care for as he suffers a coma as a result of the explosion. They meet Felicity Smoak, who comes to visit Barry in January 2014. In April, Caitlin and Cisco are tasked with taking inventory of their S.T.A.R. Labs facility in Starling City, after Starling cancels the lease on the building. Cisco tries to remind Caitlin that the explosion was an accident, but she is still suffering from the pain of losing Ronnie.

They are attacked by Slade Wilson and narrowly manage to escape with the help of Cisco's handling of a weapon designed by Arthur Light who was fired by Wells in Spring 2012 for making crazy things. Felicity and Diggle go to the scene and meet a shaken Caitlin and Cisco, who won't reveal what Slade took as they don't know that Felicity and Diggle actually work for Green Arrow.
