Hey, Bruce, don't jinx it. Because if Tony Daniel had it his way, you're not standing too far from the 'I knew my sidekuck had ISSUES, and I made them worse". Which is just another reason to hate on Bruce's message to Jason in BftC.
Now, as far as friendship between Ollie and Bruce is concerned, I read this and it seems obvious to me that these two have to trust one another a lot. They wouldn't forgive one another the bitchiness overwrought verbal abuse if they weren't friends.
But yeah, I love that scene of pot and kettle and rushing through the streets of Star City to get to Jason and Mia and managing their stress each in their way. It reminds me of family.
