statsgirl November 23, 2016 Share November 23, 2016 It makes sense. I find when I'm not getting what I need, whether on this show or other aspects of life, I need more to get me out of the hole, and this is a bad time for Oicity.

SmallScreenDiva November 23, 2016 Share November 23, 2016 Been reading that (Our Version of Events) and I've liked it so far though I need things to rev up soon. 4 chapters and they've just decided to through with it. And yeah, I need more Felicity/Oliver interaction. 1 Link to comment
Hiveminder November 23, 2016 Share November 23, 2016 (edited) Is anyone reading Donna Smoak Figures It Out on Ao3? It's a cute fic where Donna thinks she caught Felicity Spoiler having a threesome with Oliver and the Green Arrow. It's only three chapters so far, but it's fun and a nice break if you've been reading too many angsty fics. Edited November 23, 2016 by Hiveminder Link to comment

wonderwall December 4, 2016 Share December 4, 2016 (edited) @TrueMyth so... I'm re-reading your fic The Love Thieves and um... is there any chance you'll be writing a part 2? :p It's so freaking good! This is me legit having no shame lol Edited December 4, 2016 by wonderwall Link to comment
TrueMyth December 4, 2016 Share December 4, 2016 (edited) I'm glad you're enjoying it so much, @wonderwall! I have three of five chapters of part two written, but the teaching semester has kept me very busy. I do plan to finish it up, hopefully before the new year. Good news/Bad news of next year is that I'm expecting a baby in January and I'm taking Spring semester off for maternity. I hope to find more time to write in 2017, but the bad news part is babies can be a little unpredictable as far as how good they are at napping and letting mommy write (my son was not the best napper). :) Edited December 4, 2016 by TrueMyth 17 Link to comment
bijoux December 4, 2016 Share December 4, 2016 I'm looking forward to the update, but more importantly, congrats on the baby. 3 Link to comment

Mellowyellow December 4, 2016 Share December 4, 2016 CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BABY TrueMyth. Hehe thanks for asking her wonderwall. I've been tempted to ask about part 2 but resisted. Glad you did the dirty work! On another note there is hardly anything good to read these days. There are two stories that I love but that's about it! Nothing at all! Probably because I've read everything decent there is to read! Would fanfic.net have anything new or is it the same stuff cross posted? 1 Link to comment

wonderwall December 10, 2016 Share December 10, 2016 Depressing parallel is super depressing. You can see that she's alone most of the time - and the one where she's grieving Oliver, she's snapping at Ray and pushing him away... People say Oliver needs to embrace the people in his life and let them help him, I think Felicity needs to learn this lesson too especially when she's facing something terrible. But all I can say is, Felicity is one strong woman for being able to deal with these losses mostly on her own... http://felicitys.tumblr.com/post/154202140191/felicity-grieving-all-of-her-boyfriends-oliver 12 Link to comment

Morrigan2575 December 17, 2016 Share December 17, 2016 (edited) Quote Has anyone read "Two Men, Same Name" by dettiot and Mel_Sanfo? Saw it this morning and read the first two chapters. Fairly short and looks interesting but I don't want to continue if this is all going to collapse later. I started it, got several chapters in, didn't like the direction. It's kind of all over the place it doesn't even take place in "our" Arrow universe but seems to deal with 2 different Arrow Universes Edited December 17, 2016 by Morrigan2575 Link to comment

statsgirl December 17, 2016 Share December 17, 2016 It's set in season 2. Oliver and Sara have gone to look for a cure for the mirakuru but Slade wants Oliver and Isabel is taking over QC so Diggle, Felicity and Thea send Barry to get Oliver from another timeline but he accidentally grabs an Oliver from another universe who is a businessman and never went on the island. Businessman Oliver is a nice person who tries to fit in and lfalls for Felicity; Arrow Oliver is all business and treat Felicity the way he did in season 2B before the last episode. It's an interesting split but its' not really compelling maybe because it's taking so long. I'd give it a B. Link to comment

It's Oliver being shy and falling for Felicity. Then, just as he's going to ask her out, first Slade kidnaps him and then Arrow Oliver returns. If you're looking for lots of Olicity moments, try MachasWicket or another of dettoit's AUs. I also like ChronicOlicity's stories, They're long and AUs but lots of Olicity. Her current one Is He Deserves A Shot (At Being Happy). I've only read the first few chapters of this one, I'm saving it for the long days after Christmas. 2 Link to comment

bijoux December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 kyrieanne updated Canaries if anyone is interested. I liked it despite magical realism thing it has going on because it delved into Felicity's psyche post-Cooper. Once I was over that, my biggest fear was that we'd have Oliver as the Hood or the Arrow without the island, but this latest chapter indicates that this isn't the case. It could get interesting to see how he goes about "righting his father's wrongs" in a different way. Also, pretty good nod to Sara "dying" on the Gambit by using a different character and set of (as of yet unclear) circumstances. 1 Link to comment

HighHopes December 19, 2016 Share December 19, 2016 Holy f*** at that Pieces of Always update. You have Ellie's drawings FRAMED and hanging up in your house? While you have a young daughter, who at 17 months has apparently already been told about your super special perfect future daughter? Really?! No wonder Jules has issues, anyone would. Ellie won't even be around for another two years and they are already framing her drawings and hanging her artwork and have her crib set up. Oliver and Felicity in this fic are truly awful people and parents. Link to comment
apinknightmare December 19, 2016 Share December 19, 2016 I looked here before I read the update and thought there was just going to be a mention of Ellie's drawings on the wall, not really expecting what was actually in the chapter. Uh...yikes. Link to comment

What's interesting is that I see the authors interacting with readers on Twitter and so many of them identify with Jules and heap praise the authors. I cringe myself but I don't think the authors are aware how this seeming obsession with Ellie is coming across to others (which kind of reminds me how Arrow fails to see how Oliver comes across as an asshole). 3 Link to comment

I also identify with Jules but think this Olicity pairing as parents are garbage. I skimmed the latest chapter, and all the stuff with Ellie is so creepy and wrong. I'm still waiting for other universe Olicity to come steal Jules away and give her all the love, attention, and respect she deserves. 4 Link to comment
Hiveminder December 19, 2016 Share December 19, 2016 I want Cisco to kidnap Jules and send her to another Earth with an Oliver and Felicity who will appreciate her and love her. Or any good parents.

Toddlers can get jealous, but I suspect all poor Jules has heard from before her birth was how awesome and amazing Ellie is. What would you tell a kid when they ask why there's another room already set up with a crib when there's not going to be a child in it for several years? That creepy obsession they have with Ellie would absolutely bleed over into how they treat Jules and what they tell her. None of their children (including Ellie!) should have ever known about AU Ellie. 3 Link to comment

I'd understand if Ellie was there and Jules was witness to blatant favoritism but she doesn't exist yet. It seems crazy to me, especially for a kid so so young. They must talk about Ellie all the damn time OMG. This just gets worse and worse the more I think about it. YIKES x INFINITY. Link to comment
