In which Felicity becomes Team Arrow's "Designated Drinker" (and the one time Oliver becomes HERS) "It's like… a designated driver, but instead of planning for sobriety… Every time you feel like taking a drink, pour one out and I'll drink it. That way, you stay sober."

Set two years after Felicity joins Team Arrow. After another close call, Oliver starts to realize his feelings for Felicity may be more than platonic. He struggles with what to do about it while they grow closer in the midst of their newest storm. He's learning things about Felicity he's never considered before, and he's also realizing that, even when they fall, they'll grow.

"Oh, come off it, Ronald. It's not the end of the world," Hermione scolded, hands on her hips as she stared accusingly down at her husband, "You should be happy!"... Ron and Hermione's reactions after Rose delivers some startling news.

"The entirety of my schooling culminated in the one year that truly changed everything. It forced me to reconsider preconceived notions, and to discover a lot about myself I hadn't fully understood before. It was my final year at Hogwarts, the final year before the rest of my life began and, though I wouldn't admit it to anyone, I was terrified." Prequel to His Only Daughter

"Slade Wilson is very much alive, and he wants revenge. He's in Oliver's line of sight then, and he freezes when he takes in the scene before him, heart stopping as he realizes Slade has managed to take him by surprise once again."

This story has been discontinued. I am going to try to elaborate on this same concept in a new story. Hopefully it will be better done.

"It still didn't seem real, after all this time. They weren't supposed to be dead." Set after book 7. Very AU

"He needs to decide, but at the same time he hopes he never will. If he procrastinates, it's another day he gets to spend with her, another time he gets to hold her hand and kiss her lips."

Sighing, she tightened her fingers around the brittle chain, enclosing it in her fist to prevent it from judging the decision she had just made. She was fighting a losing battle, that much she knew.
