("One problem. It got a lot messier, but because of a competing - or contributing spell. But, hey, we're here in one piece." So, don't worry too much, dad or Laurel. )
[Mia reaches for her own phone this time, because this one actually got reported on the news, given the death count. She pulls up an article on the "gas leak" that did so much damage, but Oliver knows a cover story when he sees one.
[She's still figuring some things out, but Star City was always a place she intended to return to. As soon as she figured out how she was going to deal with JJ.]
("It's not like I got a subletter. I think this is good I should do. And it comes with perks. Along with - all of my own. We're not going to be gone forever," he adds for his sister. )
Star City will always be your home. Laurel and I haven't even made over your rooms.
Only at first. Since then, John. Connor once or twice for his father. Lyla last week.
( But, since that first, worried check-in, JJ hasn't checked in. Oliver was kind to him, but there was something there that wasn't good enough for his daughter. Maybe that's anyone he or William dates. Not that he's met William's dates before. )
[It's literally the least she could do. But with that, their food arrives and the family is able to move on to lighter, more catching up topics for the rest of their dinner.]

[Laurel can't help but laugh. "Good girl."]

She passes the phone to him.]
That's Knightsbridge.

"I uh was there, too. But, I didn't know Mia was. Not until --" his near death experience. Some topics are thorny. )

[Because in many ways, William did find her. It wasn't a planned meetup spot for them.]
no subject
What really happened?
no subject
[She keeps her voice low, just in case.]
They attacked the witch coven that was living there. Then one of the witches put up a barrier to trap them all inside. It was a massacre.
no subject
( He doesn't like what his children have been through, the world they're now voluntarily putting themselves in. But, he can not talk. )
Are you two staying here? Staying with Allison and Isaac?
no subject
[They'll go wherever they're needed, but for now, they have some time to themselves.]
We're in a lull, I guess. We're trying to figure out where they're going to go next.

[Because she definitely might need one one day. And then, because she is curious, even if she's not sure he should be:]
Have you heard from JJ?

Don't answer that question.
She takes a breath and nods.]
I should probably text him, but I wouldn't even know where to start.
no subject
( It... took him a very long time to learn that. )
