<span style="font-family:Assistant"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sara reluctantly sat down on the couch when Oliver offered. She listened to what he had to say, and stared at him as she tried to put into words what she was currently feeling. "I killed Diaz. I never told anyone, but I searched him out the night of my father's funeral, when you were carted off to jail. I found him at a restaurant, shot him <br/>
in the head, and disposed of his body, in retaliation for him killing my father. That's why the others haven't seen him in months and why he hasn't been bothering you <br/>
in the weeks since you've been back."<br/>
<br/>
"I also killed Black Siren. I snapped her neck like a twig. It was both a mercy and a curse. She tried to fight me off, but her skills were no match for mine. I can still see her wearing my sister's face, and hear the snap as I broke her neck and killed her. I couldn't stand watching her parade around with Laurel's face and lying and pretending to be my sister, when she wasn't. Before killing Diaz, I hadn't killed in 3 years. I'd have killed Damien Darhk, but you took that from me. I wasn't able to avenge my sister's death."<br/>
<br/>
"But if you for one minute think I'm gonna regret killing Diaz or that copycat of my sister, then you're an idiot. Ray's been freaking out over everything I've said or done for the last 5 months, since I returned to Team Legends after my father died. He's been questioning my decisions, following me around the ship, always asking if I'm okay. What the fuck am I supposed to say? And then there was an incident last month where we were chasing down anachronisms  in 1982 and I got distracted by a 20 year old version of my father."<br/>
<br/>
"The entire team was in a fight and when I got distracted, Nate got impaled by a piece of steel rebar and it nearly killed him. And since then, Ray's been shadowing me. I don't need or want a fucking babysitter." Sara said and glared. "No matter how much I've been wanting to kill, and my need to do so has gotten worse after killing Diaz and Black Siren, I've stopped myself. I'm in control, even if the others don't think so."<br/>

Roy shook his head at her words. "I don't mind us doing something that you want. I told you, tonight's about us celebrating that you got the job at Queen Consolidated. As for the stuff with my family, it's not that I want to hide our relationship or hide you. I'm protecting you, Serena. I know you don't want to hear that, and I'm well aware that you're not helpless. It's just that some of the people that I surround myself with are dangerous and while they make it a priority not to get innocents hurt, sometimes shit happens."<br/>
<br/>
"And I don't want anything to happen to you." He stopped talking and nodded when she suggested he pick out a movie, and ended up picking her favorite. They ate and talked and watched the movie. When the conversation turned to Oliver, he choked and quickly thumped on his chest and drank a sip of water, only relaxing when his airway was cleared. He swallowed a few times and cleared his throat. When Serena asked how he felt about the other man being back, the blonde shrugged, trying to act like he didn't know much about Oliver. <br/>
<br/>
"I'm glad that he's back. I'm sure his family is, too. The guy's made such a difference in our city, but no one wants to acknowledge it. They're all pissed off that he lied. The guy risked his life for 6 years, trying to clean up the streets of Starling City. And what does he get in return? Jail time, that's what. It's such crap. I'm just glad that he was able to get his company back. I think that you'll like working for him. He comes off as a jerk sometimes, but I'm sure that's not really who he is." After he spoke, he took another bite of his food.</span></span>
