Day 241 -- Video
[Well this is new. Not that he didn't deserve to be in prison considering the amount of crimes he's committed over the years, even if they'd been in the name of pursuing truth and justice. Illegal was illegal, right?]

[He's not sure what to do right now, but he needs to figure it out, so he takes a deep breath and turns on the camera. An image of an attractive, late twenty-something year old man with light blonde hair and brown eyes appears. He's not smiling, and mostly he just looks very tired. There's a long red gash across his right cheek that looks fresh.]

Hey. I'm new here. [Now he hesitates. He doesn't know what to expect, or what to say next. A first for him, really. He always seemed to say whatever people wanted to hear. Or needed to hear.]

I'm Oliver Queen.

	I have? [Bart squirms a bit.] I know puberty waited until I was like 21 to kick in with that growth spurt, but you couldn't have missed me for that long... [Wait a minute.] What year is it for you? Back home, I mean? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Yeah Oliver really just doesn't even respond for a moment. Mostly because he can't. Apparently he's missed a few birthdays.] It was 2009. What year is it for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	... 2012. [Well, this is awkward. No wonder Ollie's so hesitant to talk to him, if they're still battling Doomsday.] I guess you owe me a couple of birthday presents. [beat] And a beer or two. [Not that Bart actually gets drunk from alcohol. What else is he supposed to say, though? "Sorry bro, I didn't mean to beat you in the time department?"] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

And since you're of age, the beer thing is legal now. [He pauses, not sure what to say. This time thing is really strange.]

How uh -- how've you been?

[Yeah Ollie doesn't really know what to say here either. Back home Bart and Dinah had just learned he was a murderer. It does distantly occur to him that if Bart's so glad to see him, they apparently moved past him killing Lex. He's just not sure how that happened or how long it took. Out of everyone from their team, he was most concerned with Bart because he was the youngest. Because Ollie had always looked at Bart as a younger brother and he knew he'd let him down.]

[Bart rolls his eyes, though it's half out of amusement than any real exasperation. Of course Ollie'd focus on him drinking way before he reached legal limits!]

I've been okay. You know, ignoring the whole "stuck in underwater prison" thing. [He smiles, though it's a bit strained considering the circumstances.] Which reminds me... Since I've also sorta-kinda been here for a month, I can show you the ropes if you're up for it.

[If he sounds a little overeager, it's because he is. Despite the Lex stuff, and Bart's tendency to do his own thing, he still sees Ollie as his big brother - Lex coming back to life might've helped with the whole "Ollie is a murderer" ordeal.]
