Well, I just got home, and this live thread is not making me excited, so I’m gonna watch Southern Charm instead. I’ll check the episode thread to see if I want to watch this later.

Some people just have poor taste, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Wait. They had Felicity apologize to Curtis? What, did they think people loved it when Felicity apologized to Oliver last year so much that they just had to have her do it again, but this time to someone way more smug, unlikeable and completely completely unapologetic himself? Maybe next week she can apologize to Rene for being annoyed when he calls her blondie.

William goes to jail. Diaz frames him for everything he, Cayden James, Slade, Chase, Malcolm Merlyn, GA, the Arrow, the Hood, and assorted TA members have ever done and the murder that Barry was recently cleared of. Plus, that time last week that some kid stole a bottle of Pepsi from the gas station down the street.

Wait, was that supposed to be anti-Felicity? They’re not doing anti right.

If Felicity’s shirts need some time, then Oliver’s shirts would be happy to be there for her because Felicity and Oliver’s shirts have their own relationship completely independent of Oliver. Felicity and Oliver’s shirts have been there for each other, and just because Oliver’s shirts can’t be there for Oliver anymore doesn’t mean Felicity doesn’t have a place in their life.

Right. Like, was Robert killing him self in front of Oliver not real loss? Were Shado, and Tommy, and Moira, and Sara, and Sara again, and Sara also again, and Laurel, and thinking he would never see his son again, and thinking he lost Felicity (multiple times), and Roy having to leave, and Akio, and Slade going cray, and his friendship with Anatoly, and multiple people he trusted betraying him not losses? We’ve seen Oliver alone. We’ve seen him lose people. We’ve seen the other characters lose people. It’s old. It’s tedious. Do you know what season 7 with 23 episodes needs? Something new.

If Oliver’s shirts feel that they can’t be their best selves with Oliver, then I really think that they should get some distance, take some time, and just figure out where they are in life. Maybe one day they can come back and be part of the team again, and maybe Oliver will just have to adjust to not having his shirts there when he needs them anymore.

It depends on just how long a little longer is and how short short is. I’m okay with waiting a little while for a decently sized update, but after a couple weeks I start to forget what’s happening in the story. As far as size, I don’t mind shorter chapters if updates are frequent, but if they’re too short it’s hard to get into the flow of the story before the chapter’s over.

I would like an E2 Roy, just because then Thea doesn’t have to be either dead or broken up with E1 Roy. On the other hand, there won’t be that bond and history that E1 Roy has with OTA.

After everything they’ve already put him through, at that point it’s just torture porn.

The writers and various Star City citizens who contract the extremely specific form of amnesia that causes them to forget what GA’s jawline and other clearly visible facial features look like when looking at Oliver Queen and vice versa.

Nah. This is a soap opera. Memories come and memories go. That’s not something they can’t undo. Although, maybe Arrow could use a good amnesia plot line. It can’t be worse than anything they’re doing now.

Technically, nothing can happen on this show that can absolutely never be undone. Not with Barry walking around in the world.

Maybe the president will remember that time Oliver did the world a solid and helped save it, and she’ll pardon him. People have to admit to the crime in order to get a pardon, no? That could be a reason for him to admit to being GA.
