[Felicity expected that. She expected that immediately. Except that she also knows how this will play out if they give him nothing. She knows Oliver, knows his anger and his feelings of betrayal. Knows how quick he is to swallow it down when it's those closest to him when there's a job that needs to be done. How he'll compartmentalize his feelings so as not to jeopardize the team and how it'll be eating away at him the whole time.]
I know.
[The response is immediate. Even with just Thea, things were going to be complicated. Easier, but still complicated.
It would be easier to just leave it there, but Sara needs to know why. Felicity knows she's protecting her team, protecting time. But there's also the here and now that needs to be protected too.]
How is it going to help things if he's at odds with most of the Legends? I can tell you for a fact that he probably wants to at least punch Ray. They did not have the best of relationships for most of that year.
[At least the 'Sara's alive' can of worms is out of the bag. She also knows that part of the reason Oliver didn't like Ray was that of the fact that she was dating him, the because she was dating him and he was the ATOM. But that doesn't change the fact that Ray stole Oliver's company, like, that day.]
Sara, We're going to figure this out, but it's not going to help anyone if Oliver is constantly being blindsided with important details.
