I've Been Trying To Do It Right, I've Been Living A Lonely Life

So, there was some grade-A shippy tropes going on with Slade and Shado, wasn't there? Huddling together for warmth, Slade asking Shado to leave him behind and Shado refusing...

The rest of the episode was enjoyable and everyone looked freaking gorgeous in their coats and hats.

I wasn't surprised, but I was rolling my eyes over Oliver sleeping with Summer Glau's character. Oh, Felicity, you deserve better than Oliver. I really hope Arrow doesn't start circling this place where Oliver sleeps with other women, Felicity is hurt, and nothing every changes. (I want Felicity to sleep with other people, Oliver to be emotionally hurt, and Felicity to rebuff his first few advances, because she's a smart girl.)

i'm kind of really super bugged by the amount of time we HAVEN'T SPENT developing felicity as a character outside of her cutesy cutesy "heaving bosom to oliver's gleaming muscled chest" scenes. like??? she's a serious hacker where did she get THOSE SKILLS

as mollivanders mentioned, everyone, including the actress, wants to spend more time with the non Oliver-centric part of Felicity's life.


new head canon, felicity is from gotham and she learned those skills from her girlfriend barbara gordon in between lots and lots of sex.

i can dig it.
