dtissagirl October 7, 2015 Share October 7, 2015 It looks super crooked to me, because the time measurements are not in a logical increasing order. It would be like using minute:hour:second. 3 Link to comment
BkWurm1 October 7, 2015 Share October 7, 2015 It looks super crooked to me, because the time measurements are not in a logical increasing order. It would be like using minute:hour:second. I think there is a logic to both ways. The Month-Day-Year for me is equivalent to Hour: Minute : Day and therefore is familiar and logical. But at the same time, I could understand where the piece of information most crucial to day to day use would actually be the day and it would be following the increasing order of time measurement as well. The most logical order for record keeping probably would be Year/Month/Day. Link to comment

tarotx October 8, 2015 Share October 8, 2015 I think in American English it flows better to say October 8th 2015. Perhaps that is why we write it the way we do even in number format. 1 Link to comment
Sakura12 October 8, 2015 Share October 8, 2015 It also works better when you are giving the date without the year. October 8th, sounds better than 8, October. 1 Link to comment
foreverevolving October 8, 2015 Share October 8, 2015 It also works better when you are giving the date without the year. October 8th, sounds better than 8, October. 8th of October. is how we say it in Hebrew back home, day first and than the month. 1 Link to comment
BkWurm1 October 9, 2015 Share October 9, 2015 (edited) 8th of October. is how we say it in Hebrew back home, day first and than the month. Pretty much the only time they bust out the 8th of October is during courtroom dramas. "Where were you on the 8th of October?!!" Edited October 9, 2015 by BkWurm1 1 Link to comment

Luckylyn October 11, 2015 Author Share October 11, 2015 I made a new Oliver and Felicity video. I've been dying to use this song for a while. 9 Link to comment
AyChihuahua October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 So a couple new Felicityrapefics, and one in which MM steals O/F's kid to be his heir, who then murders Oliver after he grows up. I really don't understand that kind of writing. It's admitted angst-whoriness, very OOC and just rather silly and manipulative. Here, I'll write a fic in which Oliver turns out to have been evil all along, so he rapes and murders his and Felicity's children in front of Felicity, then murders her, the lines their decapitated heads up on the mantle. It's just so totally ridiculous and beyond maudlin and I HATE IT. 1 Link to comment
Guest October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 Ew. I'll never understand those types of fics, especially when Arrow is set in a world where there's plenty of other crap/angst they can throw at her. I hope they're tagged correctly so I can avoid them. I've seen enough of that thanks. Link to comment

kismet October 16, 2015 Share October 16, 2015 (edited) Driving in the car, I heard a song that immediately made me think of O/F until of course it got really depressing in the end (but we'll skip over that for now, unless of course this might be For Blue Skies a few years down the road). But it was just so spot on for them, especially in light of some of our conversations in the relationship thread. The song was "Wasn't Expecting That" by Jamie Lawson. "Wasn't Expecting That" by Jamie Lawson http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/jamielawson/wasntexpectingthat.html It was only a smileBut my heart it went wildI wasn't expecting thatJust a delicate kissAnyone could've missedI wasn't expecting that Did I misread the sign?Your hand slipped into mineI wasn't expecting thatYou spent the night in my bedYou woke up and you said"Well, I wasn't expecting that!" I thought love wasn't meant to lastI thought you were just passing throughIf I ever get the nerve to askWhat did I get right to deserve somebody like you? I wasn't expecting that It was only a wordIt was almost misheardI wasn't expecting thatBut it came without fearA month turned into a yearI wasn't expecting that I thought love wasn't meant to lastHoney, I thought you were just passing throughIf I ever get the nerve to askWhat did I get right to deserve somebody like you?I wasn't expecting that Oh and isn't it strangeHow a life can be changedIn the flicker of the sweetest smileWe were married in springYou know I wouldn't change a thingWithout that innocent kissWhat a life I'd have missed If you'd not took a chanceOn a little romanceWhen I wasn't expecting thatTime doesn't take longThree kids up and goneI wasn't expecting that When the nurses they cameSaid, "It's come back again"I wasn't expecting thatThen you closed your eyesYou took my heart by surpriseI wasn't expecting that PS - I know its not an Arrow video, but the original video of this will give you all the feels, tears & smiles.

AyChihuahua October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 DAFUQ? EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! WHy?????????????????? I wish I could unlearn this information... If it helps at all, the decapitated heads on the mantle thing was me being sarcastic. As far as I know that is not an actual fic...at least not yet. But someone did ask yespleasehawkeye to write a fic in which Felicity and Oliver's two children and then Felicity are tortured and murdered in front of Oliver. Funsies! I find the proliferation of fics portraying Felicity being raped EXTREMELY UPSETTING. I guess because she's gotten so popular? I just don't understand how writing these awesome women characters being raped is a thing, and plenty of the writers seem to be women, so I understand even less. Does not compute. 6 Link to comment

Guest October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 (edited) I've just finished reading The Legacies We Leave and it was PERFECT. What an epic story! It's pretty much everything I hope for Felicity, Oliver, their relationship and more. I know it's 97 chapters (and that's not even counting the first part of the story!) but it's worth a read. I promise! I really enjoyed the latest chapter of When my time comes around. I've read some of her Community fic before and she's really good. I'm also really enjoying these one shots/drabbles in Fever Dreams and the AU one shots In Every Star, I See Your Face from the same author are awesome, particularly the Scandal and Grey's Anatomy ones. I want more! Edited October 20, 2015 by Guest Link to comment
AyChihuahua October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 There are two very well-written fics right now that are driving me crazy. Blood Hands, because I hate with every fiber of my being Oliver ever having been involved in sex-trafficking women, and because Oliver and Felicity are both being pretty dumb and stubborn (Oliver in particular refuses to tell either Diggle or Felicity anything, helllooooooo S3 dumbass Oliver making an appearance in an S2-based fic), and because it's just not moving. I need a little plot movement to go with my characterization. Then this fic, part of it's called Interludes, by Abbie, I think, in which Tommy came back with the LOA post-S2 and kidnapped Felicity. He's had her for awhile, Oliver has no idea where she is or who has her, and there are some mind games and Stockholming going on between Tommy and Felicity, and IT IS NOT MOVING. It's driving me crazy. Oliver keeps having dreams about Felicity and getting nowhere finding her, and Tommy and Felicity just keep having weird Stockholm stuff. Like okay, I get it, interesting dynamic, now MOVE IT ALONG. It's much worse because they are both WIPs. 1 Link to comment

BkWurm1 October 23, 2015 Share October 23, 2015 I have zero ability to make video but I was listening to the "love song" satellite music station and they played an old song from the eighties that I now desperately wish someone would make a video for. The song is Hands to Heaven by Breathe (huge hit in its day) and it might as well have been written for The Fallen. Anyone that doesn't know the song. Go. Listen. Mentions of moonlit rooms, dawn holding no reprieve, needing the sweet caress tonight, saying goodbye, praying to be together someday all wrapped up in a lush moving melody. It's near perfect. I could practically see the shots for the different lyrics and musical interludes...except I don't know how to do any of it!! Bummed. 3 Link to comment
