[ sorry, bro, she's not really paying attention because she's too busy scrambling over the back of the couch to throw herself into his arms. it's been maybe a full day since she told her brother she needed to stop being speedy, but that doesn't mean that the only person she wants in a mystical city isn't her brother. ]
[oliver had missed her. he hadn't seen her in the months since he'd
been here in the city and he hadn't realized just how much he missed that
until he had her in his arms again.]
God, I've missed you. I've missed you so much, Thea.
You should have told me you were here, I would have come with. [ she practically leapt at the chance when the representatives had approached her, anything to fix the catastrophe that was laurel's death. somewhere in the back of her mind she imagines a world where laurel doesn't die, could it be a world where tommy doesn't have to die, too?
she tucks her chin against oliver's shoulder closing her eyes. ] How long have you been here?
Long enough to turn into a brooding panda? [ thea guesses, choosing not to focus on the hows because three months??? that's not important right now. she can think about that later. ] Or Stepford Ollie?
[ she draws back abruptly, a matching bark of a laugh. ]
You're a cop. [ she repeats, dumbfounded. ] You? Been arrested more times than I can count on both hands, been to trial half as many times... You're a cop. Hold on, hold on, I'm imagining Captain Lance's face. Oh my god, Ollie, he'd have another heart attack.
A bike cop... I love you, Ollie. [ she pats his arm fondly before fully stepping away. she doesn't go very far though, as if unwilling to be parted with her brother now that she's got him here. ] So tell me about this place.

A couple of months now. Maybe three? Long enough to figure out the hows and whys of the place.

[Oliver let out a harsh laugh. If anyone knew him, it was Thea, and he couldn't exactly hide anything from her.]
A little of column A, a little of column B? I'm a cop here.

Believe me, everyone has told me how ironic it is. Still, there's not a lot of crime here and it's a nice job. I got a bike and everything.
