He's not so bad. Oliver Queen puts on a front of still being an irresponsible playboy. But he's not. [ That Ollie had died, and this one was honesty better. ] I try not to bring him up around Hal. Had another version arrived that didn't know me, I'm not even sure how I'd deal with it. [ She loved him, dearly. It was probably obvious on her face. Even if she couldn't let herself be with him. He needed to be something better than he could ever be with her. ] Reception is definitely part of the wedding. It's the whole day, not just the twenty minutes it takes to go through the ceremony. It sounds like it was wonderful.
[ Sara smiled, dropping her gaze down to the dogs. It was hard to know where to start, what to include, and what to leave out. She didn't want to give away too much about Ollie, even if most of it could be found on any computer in another reality. ] I guess it starts with Ollie, actually. He was dating my older sister, and I was a horrible younger sister. I was sneaking around with him, in college. He was supposed to going on a boating trip with this dad. We arranged it so I could sneak on board with him. The ship ended up going down. I probably should have died, Oliver thought I had. But I ended up being picked up by a ship called the Amazo. It held a man named Dr. Anthony Ivo and his crew. They were off an Island called Lian Yu. Ivo was trying to find something on the Island that the Japanese had created. A type of serum to create a super soldier. But while he was looking, he was experimenting on prisoners he had on the ship. When they first found me they originally locked me up, but Ivo took a liking to me, and for the next year I learned from him instead. Until they captured Oliver, who had washed up on Lian Yu and was getting in Ivo's way, with some other people who were trapped there.
[ For whatever reason, he life always seemed to bring her back to Oliver. ] Instead of letting them hurt him, I helped him escape, and ended up back on Lian You with him and a few other prisoners we set free.[ Sara paused, taking a breath as she tried to figure out what to say. There was a lot, and she wasn't sure how much detail she wanted to go into. ] Anyway, long story short, we needed a way off the island, and there was only one way, the Amazo. So we hatched this insane plan which was probably never going to work, but we had to try. It didn't work, and the ship went down. I should have died again. But I didn't. That was when I met Nyssa al Ghul. She saved my life.
