this fic is a long time coming. i haven't had much time recently but i hadn't been able to let go of tri-tone, which i am still so thankful for your support of. and well, this one came out! i wish you all will love this as much as tri-tone.

now, read, ponder, and enjoy!


The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart. And being thoughtful. And being generous. Everything else is crap, I promise you. It's just crap that people try to sell to you to make you feel like less. So don't buy it. Be smart. Be thoughtful. And be generous.

Friday (23rd September 2016)
(12:12 a.m.)
Distract me

(12:12 a.m.)
from what

(12:15 a.m.)
I am freaking out

(12:16 a.m.)
felicity
you'll be fine

(12:16 a.m.)
I know I'll be fine
Because I'm a genius
And I'm graduating at 20
And who graduates at 20
(12:17 a.m.)
No one, that's who
And I am freaking out

(12:26 a.m.)
oh i get it

(12:27 a.m.)
Get what?

(12:27 a.m.)
you're nervous
because you're graduating younger than the others

(12:27 a.m.)
Absolutely not
(12:32 a.m.)
Okay, maybe a little
(12:34 a.m.)
Okay, maybe a gigantic size of panic is taking over me right now because of that
(12:37 a.m.)
Scratch that
I am definitely freaking out because of that

(12:42 a.m.)
i'm proud of you

(12:43 a.m.)
Oliver, now is not the time.

(12:43 a.m.)
i know
you're freaking out
and i'm proud of you

(12:45 a.m.)
You're proud that I'm probably gonna die of asphyxiation because I might just eat this handful of peanuts I found under my closet while packing because I am freaking out?

(12:49 a.m.)
okay, first of all, get rid of the peanuts right now
and second of all, i'm proud that i'm a twenty nine year old dumbass who dropped out of four colleges but i managed to get a girlfriend who's graduating at 20
(12:50 a.m.)
i'm proud of you, felicity

(1:07 a.m.)
I hate you

(1:09 a.m.)
i love you too

(1:10 a.m.)
Are you sure you can't make it tomorrow?

(1:12 a.m.)
honey
i would if i could
but mom's been pestering me about this event for weeks
and if i don't go i might as well be dead

(1:13 a.m.)
Dramatic

(1:16 a.m.)
get some rest
tomorrow, when you wake up, you're gonna do great
(don't trip though)

(1:19 a.m.)
Oliver Queen!


(6:21 a.m.)
I swear to god if you're not here already
You can walk

(6:34 a.m.)
starbucks?

(6:35 a.m.)
Yes, about to fall asleep
Because someone's a sadist and can't do things on his own

(6:40 a.m.)
you know you love her

(6:41 a.m.)
I'm only doing this because I love her

(6:41 a.m.)
i see you

(6:41 a.m.)
Good
You're piggybacking me back to my car


(7:28 a.m.)
Periscope it

(7:34 a.m.)
what's a periscope

(7:37 a.m.)
Oliver, you've been dating Felicity for three months and you don't know what a Periscope is?

(7:39 a.m.)
we barely see each other as it is

(7:39 a.m.)
You guys talk on the phone!

(7:39 a.m.)
yeah, she knows i'm hopeless at this kind of stuff

(7:49 a.m.)
Whatever
Barry has to know

(8:04 a.m.)
i'm not periscoping it
if that's even a word

(8:05 a.m.)
It's not
Yes, you are
I wanna watch every single moment of the journey of Oliver Queen and the one woman who's managed to get him all flustered and silly for almost a year
Including today

(8:06 a.m.)
relax
i'm pretty sure it'll be all over youtube later today

(8:07 a.m.)
Be that as it may
It's more fun watching it live

(8:11 a.m.)
stop being so invested in my love life

(8:12 a.m.)
I can't
I've heard and seen too much

(8:12 a.m.)
i'm not periscoping it


(8:15 a.m.)
Periscope it

(8:16 a.m.)
Already got Caitlin on it
This is gonna be gold


(10:33 a.m.)
just know that you are a certifiable genius and i love you
and i am so proud of you

(10:36 a.m.)
I love you too
Still wish you're here

(10:39 a.m.)
barry can stand in

(10:39 a.m.)
He's too busy with his girlfriend to care about me

(10:39 a.m.)
it's gonna be awesome
just you being there is awesome

(10:41 a.m.)
I hate that you always know the right things to say

(10:46 a.m.)
we're usually on the same page

(10:46 a.m.)
About a lot of things


(12:04 a.m.)
Go, Oliver!
(12:08 a.m.)
What the fuck
I just remember her last name starts with S
Oh my god, this is going to be torture
(12:12 a.m.)
I should get some paperwork done before it happens

(12:16 a.m.)
what are you doing

(12:18 a.m.)
Paperwork

(12:19 a.m.)
no, i mean, what are you doing

(12:19 a.m.)
Oh, I'm watching it live on Caitlin's periscope

(12:23 a.m.)
i
what?

(12:25 a.m.)
Some of us know what a periscope is
And by some I mean all

(12:28 a.m.)
how do you even know caitlin?

(12:31 a.m.)
Oh, I work on a few cases with her lab
We have weekly coffee date together

(12:34 a.m.)
felicity and i have more mutual friends?

(12:36 a.m.)
Technically, you only know Barry and Caitlin through Felicity
So it's not that mutual

(12:45 a.m.)
oh my god


(1:56 a.m.)
It's gonna be her turn in like 10 minutes
Get ready

(1:56 p.m.)
roger that


(2:18 p.m.)
Yes!
I can't believe I'm more excited about you randomly showing up at your girlfriend's graduation and running up the stage to kiss her than I am about my own boyfriend buying me a pizza but yes!
(2:24 p.m.)
You really struck gold with this one
And now I can go back to my paperwork in peace


(7:21 p.m.)
I love you

(7:24 p.m.)
i'm literally just in the kitchen

(7:24 p.m.)
I know
But doing it like this feels nice
(7:25 p.m.)
Reminds me of that time when I was stupid and you were patient

(7:25 p.m.)
i love you too

(7:26 p.m.)
Good
Now come over here and tell me for real

(7:28 p.m.)
yes, ma'am


so? what's the verdict? please review and let me know!

anyway, that last episode was pain. but honestly, i don't even know why i'm still watching it (oh wait, i do know, cuz i'm so far up felicity's ass i would do anything for her which includes watching a once-awesome show turn into a crap show).

idk a new boyfriend idk what you're talking about
