Something I wish more people would understand…

[fangirl-logic]

One of my favorite things about Leverage is when a bad guy points a gun at Eliot and there’s that moment of,”well, this is gonna be awkward for you,” that crosses Eliot’s face.

Fuck BRE. I'm still fried from Olicity overload. Instead of tidbits all season we've been overdosed with it all IN ONE EP!! #deathtoolicityfandom >>---> I do have a question tho, and it's about that last scene. Felicity said she understood why Oliver lied about William, and I know it has to do with Helix, but how does she understand? Felicity didn't lie to Oliver. She trusted him. he doesn't trust her not with Helix and not with William. So still not comprehending that last scene totally

the olicity was so real, girl, so real and intense and amazing wow

(Before I even attempt to answer this, I have to link to this post and this post by @cogentranting that absolutely nailed my exact thoughts on what happened.)

This is such a layered question only because it’s a layered issue, one that’s been churning and boiling for years now. It’s something that was set in motion way before Olicity even got together, one that is reflected in both Oliver and Felicity as stand-alone characters.

When Felicity said she understood, it wasn’t about the actual decision that Oliver made. What she understood better after last night was Oliver himself.

(src)

She does know now, or at the very least she’s starting to, and it is just that understanding that let her see things oh so differently, that let her look back and see things from how Oliver’s POV. It has finally given her a level of understanding that she never, ever had before. 

(src)

(god his face, look at him, he’s so vulnerable, but he’s also so cleansed)

It isn’t as simple as trust by itself, that was what last night was about. The problem (and the one that got them to the point where Oliver didn’t tell Felicity about William) is that Oliver doesn’t trust himself, and that was the driving force behind so, so, so many of his past actions.

Olicity fanfic: Fifty bucks says, Chapter 1

Word count: 8,924 Rating: Teen Chapters: 1/3 Summary: When Oliver Queen lets Felicity Smoak move in as his platonic roommate, Tommy, Thea and Digg don’t believe for a second it’ll last. So of course they’re going to try and make money off of it.

Author’s note: Hi all! So I started this a few months ago because I needed something light and happy to distract me from all the angst of OTE. And this is the result. I hope you enjoy it!

I’m also dedicating this as a gift to @geniewithwifi who is not only an amazing writer but also just a terrific person overall. Plus her birthday’s coming up later this month, so it’s like an early birthday gift. ;)

Read on: AO3 | ff.net

Chapter 1

Thea Queen knew her brother better than anyone in the world.

OK, sure, there was Tommy. Tommy Merlyn was like Oliver’s brother from another mother (something they both made note of frequently, especially when they were plastered). Sure, they’d been inseparable since close to birth.

And, all right, there was also Digg. Though he was older and had met Oliver much later than Tommy, he had quickly become the equivalent of an older brother/mentor to both Queen siblings.

So yeah. Tommy and Digg had maybe a believable claim to knowing Oliver well.

But they still didn’t know him nearly as well as Thea did. She grew up with him. She followed him around like the adoring younger sister she’d always been. And while she followed, she watched him.

She’d been there with him through all the women, through all the various tabloid scandals, through getting his shit together at culinary school and the subsequent world travel to expand his horizons and learn more about his “art.” She’d been there through all of it.

Thea could guess what her brother was thinking or feeling just by a cursory glance at his expression. She could also accurately predict how he would react in any given situation.

Oliver Queen very rarely surprised her anymore.

Which was precisely why her first reaction was to roll her eyes when a cute blonde girl with glasses and a pink dress answered his apartment door one fine Saturday afternoon when she had come calling.

Fun fact: According to Greek legend there was a famous prostitute who managed to avoid a death sentence by showing the judges her boobs and arguing that it would be a crime against the Gods to destroy something so beautiful. 

Before you ask, yes there are paintings of this. And yes, they’re amazing.

I was getting pretty fed up with links and generators with very general and overused weapons and superpowers and what have you for characters so:

Here is a page for premodern weapons, broken down into a ton of subcategories, with the weapon’s region of origin. 

Here is a page of medieval weapons.

Here is a page of just about every conceived superpower.

Here is a page for legendary creatures and their regions of origin.

Here are some gemstones.

Here is a bunch of Greek legends, including monsters, gods, nymphs, heroes, and so on. 

Here is a website with a ton of (legally attained, don’t worry) information about the black market.

Here is a website with information about forensic science and cases of death. Discretion advised. 

Here is every religion in the world. 

Here is every language in the world.

Here are methods of torture. Discretion advised.

Here are descriptions of the various methods used for the death penalty. Discretion advised.

Here are poisonous plants.

Here are plants in general.

Feel free to add more to this!

Into You Like a Train - Chapter Nine

an Arrow Movie Star AU by hannasus for @olicityficbang

SUMMARY: Felicity Smoak’s only reservation about taking a job as script supervisor on John Diggle’s latest film is the lead actor: Oliver Queen. He’s a former teen heartthrob with a reputation for bad behavior and a messy drug habit that ended up tanking his once-promising career. Now, five years after he disappeared off the Hollywood radar, Queen’s looking to make a comeback. But has he really cleaned up his act, or will his attitude problem make Felicity’s life a living hell for the nine-week shoot in New Orleans?

NOTES: Thanks to my Olicity Fic Bang artist @hackergoddessfelicity, cheerleader @the-silverforked-sky, and beta @iamangstville! And extra special hugs to @machawicket, for holding my hand and talking me off the ledge more than a few times while I was writing this. This fic is complete at twelve chapters, and a new chapter will be posted every Thursday.

Read the latest chapter on AO3 or start from the beginning.
