Must Find Fanfiction

well, I’d say that when Felicity got shot Oliver was in complete shock. Everything changed in the blink of an eye. One minute they were driving off to celebrate their engagement and the next their limo was being shot at and she got hit several times. He didn’t know what was happening. 

Not to mention Oliver was so angry at what happened to Felicity, he went off the rails and on a rampage.

When Laurel was dying, Oliver had already had time to deal with the fact that she was hurt. She had already been out of surgery, and she had talked to everyone. 

Yeah, it’s true we’re gonna have to deal with Loliver during the flashbacks but that’s because it’s a Laurel centric episode, and their relationship was a major part of her life. He was a part of who she was. Her flashbacks are going to run parallel to what the characters are going through in the present day. 

I have to admit they were milking the Loliver thing a bit in this episode. I do think that maybe they were trying to soften the blow with the stans, but mostly, I think it was just tying up her story. And let’s not forget what Laurel said–

She knows that Oliver loves Felicity. She knows that Felicity is the love of Oliver’s life. And she’s fine with that. She’s not bitter. She knows how great they are together. She’s happy that they found each other. She loves both of them. 

As far as Olicity finding their way back to each other, they will. They definitely will. They’ve been setting it up since they broke up. Even Laurel believes it.

Plus, this death will bring them closer together. They’ll have to lean on each other while they grieve, and they’ll be working together to catch Darhk, Malcolm, and the rest of H.I.V.E, which is how they fell in love in the first place. Things will be different this time. The loss will change them. It will make them realize that life has no meaning unless you’re sharing it with the people you truly love. And I HIGHLY doubt Oliver will ever lie to Felicity again. I think he’s telling the truth when he says that. Losing Felicity is a wake up call. He would never take that chance again.
