"Come on, pick up, pick up." Thea said as she held her phone to her ear, waiting for her brother to pick up.

"Hey Thea, this is a surprise." Oliver said when he picked up.

"Hey Ollie, unfortunately, this isn't a social call." Thea said.

"Need some help there in Ivy Town?" Oliver asked.

"You could say that. Ra's al Ghul is here." Thea said.

"Wait, what?" Oliver asked.

"Yeah, long story but your friend J'onn restored Nyssa's memories when she was trying to kill Sara for deserting the league, but after the mind dump, Nyssa decided to jump ship as well and now she's working with Roy and I here in Ivy Town and Ra's just took notice and now he's come to Ivy Town." Thea said.

"I'll be there tomorrow to put him in the ground." Oliver said.

"No, you forget that you're not the only one who's proven themselves worthy of being Ra's al Ghul. I can handle him. That's the kind of help I need." Thea said.

"I'm listening." Oliver said.

"Maseo is here too and it's pretty clear that he's conflicted about what Ra's is doing now. I think we might be able to get through to him and turn him into an ally." Thea said.

"Thea, I tried getting through to Maseo before. He's gone too far down the path he's chosen." Oliver said.

"You once said the same thing about Slade and look how that turned out." Thea reminded him.

"The difference is that Slade has the mirakuru in him that's making him insane. Maseo became Sarab of his own free will because he was too much of a coward to face his pain over what happened to his son and while I don't blame him, he still abandoned Tatsu." Oliver said.

"Maybe, but Ollie, don't you believe that the man you called your friend is still in there somewhere?" Thea asked.

"I want to Thea, believe I do, but I'm also realistic. Maseo is not like me or Sara or even Nyssa." Oliver said.

"Maybe, but I'm not asking you to come here and get through to him, I'm asking you to get in touch with Tatsu. If anyone can get through to him, it's her." Thea said and she could hear her brother sigh through the call.

"You really think that you can bring Maseo out of Sarab's darkness?" Oliver asked.

"Considering it didn't look like he approved of Ra's current methods, yeah, I do." Thea said.

"I'll speak with Tatsu, let her know what's going on, but you should keep training with Nyssa, since there is a chance that Sarab won't want to be Maseo again. And you have to prepare yourself for that." Oliver said.

"Look at it this way, if I'm right, you'll get to add a person to the invite list for your wedding, which had better be soon." Thea said and she could practically see her brother rolling his eyes.

"Thea, Laurel and I literally just got back together a few weeks ago." Oliver said.

"Yeah, and you've been in love with her since you figured out what love is, even though you did a terrible job of showing it for years." Thea said.

"Thea, things are complicated right now." Oliver said.

"I get that, but Ollie when aren't things complicated for you?" Thea asked.

"Since when are you such an avid supporter of Laurel and I getting married. I thought you were all about Olicity?" Oliver asked her and Thea chuckled.

"That was more me supporting your choice, since while I have nothing against Felicity, I always thought that she wasn't the right one for you. But what kind of little sister would be if I didn't support my brother's marriage, even if I I thought he was marrying the wrong woman." Thea said.

"Thea, you know why things didn't work out with Laurel." Oliver said.

"Yeah, because you both made the mistake of letting Tommy's death keep you apart. He would've wanted you both to be happy, not miserable thinking that he'd want you to stay apart." Thea told him and Oliver chuckled.

"Doesn't really matter now since he's alive again." Oliver said.

"Yeah along with Mom, Laurel, Quentin, Maseo and some of your worst of the worst like Malcolm, Ra's and I'm betting Darhk, Chase and Diaz are still alive too." Thea said.

"And we're working on fixing that." Oliver assured her.

"But I do have one question for you, Ollie. You were able to fix so many things, bring so many people back, but there was one person who's still dead." Thea said and she heard her brother sigh.

"Yeah, I've been thinking about that for awhile and I always come back to the same conclusion." Oliver said.

"And that would be?" Thea asked.

"That I could only change things that wouldn't change me and without dad's sacrifice, in either reality, I never would've been able to become the man I am now. I think that Dad had to die in order for the Green Arrow to be born." Oliver said.

"To clean up his messes." Thea said, a bit of bitterness towards her father in her voice as she said.

"Thea, can we please not get into this again?" Oliver asked, since he'd come to terms with the man their father had been.

"I'm sorry, it's just, it seems like you've spent a good chunk of your time cleaning up the messes of our family in one way or another. And it's not fair to you." Thea said.

"No, it's not. But honestly, I'd rather shoulder that burden if it means that you don't have to Thea." Oliver said.

"But they're my burdens to bear too." Thea said.

"And you also have to shoulder the burdens that come from being Malcolm's daughter since I checked and unfortunately, you are still his daughter, since that's another that for some reason I couldn't fix, you have enough on your plate with Malcolm being your father." Oliver said.

"Great. But anyways, back to what we were talking about before, I expect to see a ring on Laurel's finger when I get home for Christmas." Thea said.

"Not thanksgiving?" Oliver asked.

"I'm giving you a little extra time." Thea said.

"Thanks and tell Roy that if you come home with a ring on your finger and he did not ask me first, then he'll find out just how many ways I can hurt him before I kill him." Oliver said and Thea rolled her eyes, though she knew that Oliver was not joking.

"I'll pass along the message." Thea said.

"I'll reach out to Tatsu and see if I can get her to help you." Oliver said.

"Thanks Ollie." Thea said as they both hung up.
