So, this not an actual chapter but rather an Editor's Note special or whatnot. Mostly because my replies got so long they wouldn't fit it not the A/N of the actual story chapter to my liking and ultimately proved distracting.
First for the actual nice guest reviewers of PrettyBird, GG, and Streetmallet.
Thank you all for reviewing and glad you're enjoying the story.
For GG you will see in regards to Oliver and his skills. Yep I enjoy those pairings for Oliver as well.
If it's not Olicty I'm usually fine with the pairing, as long as the relationship makes sense.
For Streetmallet, thank you for understanding and supporting my need to stand up to the trolls. Which is what I'll be doing yet again in this.
Glad you find this story to be a strong start.
Now in regards to the so called "reviewers" who are the ever friendly Laurel zealots.
I'm not exactly surprised with your actions given I spent over eight months dealing with nonstop attacks on ArrowReddit from the Laurel trolls basically being everybody on the Reddit site.
Only reason for the attacks is because I happened to like Sara with calling her Black Canary and not falling into the party line for Laurel died so let's make it like she is a saint in the entire Arrowverse.
First for Dagenspear
As usual you always try to play the victim and yeah, I call out trolls if I see them.
Of course it's something you have always denied and tried to say I'm being fact less and a lair, despite the fact your wrong on both.
Oh no the horror from using my usernames from the two other sites of ArrowReddit and Ksite forums? *laughs* Like what exactly was the point, hmm? To show yourself as being clever or something like that.
Unlike you on the Superherohype forums I've never denied or lied about my other accounts I have on websites. For Fan Fiction, I've just never had much use to bring up, well until now that is.
Which your line of "Oliver and Sara are some of the most abusive people in the Arrowverse." says everything it needs to of just how far out you really are and how much you hate them.
Lol on saying Laurel's relationship with Green Arrow was never important to the character just goes to show you really have no clue on earth what you're even talking about.
That is one of the more important parts of both Black Canary and Green Arrow's world to say the least.
And you talking about source material is kind of ridiculous when you've said more than once on those forums, you don't even read the comics.
Despite you having a signed in account on here, you figured it would give you freedom to use a guest option to trash stories and people. Yeah that isn't going to work and you can join my list of blocked people I have.
3rd time in a row when it comes to Dagenspear on the different sites.
You are nothing more than a cyberstalking bully. Which is for sure creepy as hell that you spent so much time in tracking both JDBentz and me down just to give us angry rants.
For Lance and Queen
Sara never cared about Laurel? Like just wow, you are so very, very wrong.
And you're wrong Sara because was never brought in to undermine Laurel and it wasn't sabotage.
Sara was the first part to Laurel's over all journey but things didn't go as they planned or as people expected for how Sara would affect everything, me included.
Uh they treated Kaite like what to give Caity a job? On completely zero grounds and zero proof to back that up.
Sara never slept with Oliver to hurt Laurel, the second time back from the island like you think.
For the Lance family, it was pretty clear Quentin and Dinah, despite their flaws, loved both their daughters without playing favorites.
For that guest who wanted Laurel to beat Oliver up for his actions pre-island.
*sighs* I guess this people, is what we call an Oliver/Laurel relationship but just done Olicty style. Meaning? It's abusive and toxic.
I'm not going to write a relationship where Laurel is constantly beating up Oliver for his past mistakes which is basically what you want.
Like if you dislike Oliver that much then it makes no sense you would even want him to be in a relationship with Laurel.
I may write characters who physically assault Oliver but that's not because I actually agree with them.
Oliver is not a party boy and has more than paid for that because of Lian Yu.
Which you have a problem with Oliver for keeping his promise to Sara by not telling Laurel what happened?
I guess either you forget the part where Oliver's honoring her last wish or you just don't care.
Now for DinahLancefan
Hello, it's been awhile since you trashed my work given the last time I saw you was A Fresh Start story
Also cussing me out and calling me a Laurel hater?
First you kind of missed the point of why I killed Laurel off in that one story your referring to.
Second, I'm not Marc Guggenheim or Mericle who don't even bother to properly plan out who they are going to stick in the grave then decide to kill Laurel off for mostly fan pandering reasons, based on the Olicty death bed wish.
If they never had her bless Olicty on her death bed, then maybe I could make a decent, logical argument for well they did it for story reasons but the Olicty thing just kind of undermines everything.
For the whole rant you did in regards to Laurel and her yelling at Oliver in regards to season 4? Listen up.
Maybe this comes as shock to you but there's a difference between hating a character and just not liking when a character gets off from not being called out for their actions but being perfectly fine with them.
That was Laurel in season 4 with the whole Sara thing. Along with her lying then pretending to be Sara towards Quentin in season 3 which still bugs me.
Really the entire Team Arrow began treating Oliver like he was beneath them since 3x09 and it's still going on in the show.
Your statement of I hate Laurel is wrong and here's a brief explanation of my views on Laurel.
Now yes, I seriously disliked Laurel in season 2 when she was being selfish, doing drugs and blaming everybody else for her problems but I don't anymore.
For her other 3 seasons of a typical lawyer and love interest/triangle role to Black Canary, I can't ever say she ended up on my favorite list of characters.
Through I will say the Arrow writers from day one didn't know how to properly handle the character.
On Fan Fiction when she's written by writers like Andrus Tolero or Stand With Ward and Queen I can more easily enjoy and like Laurel Lance as a character.
Then again that's the difference of Laurel's handled by people who actually do what they are doing, compared to the show writers.
Now back to the original point of this, is the Laurel trolls well basically the only thing you've done is just prove the point I made last chapter.
I'm also fed up with constantly seeing you people trash my stories, nonstop.
This what I'm going to start doing across the board and it's real simple. If you attack my story, me or authors in the guest reviews for any reason you get an instant delete.
Unless for some reason your one of the "lucky" ones who I want to address in an A/N you go.
Now if you're a civil, not trolling person by all means review away since I will accept those.
I've been rather relaxed with the guest option but I'm done. I've had enough.
So, to the Laurel fanatics I've got two words and they are? Get lost.
Now back to the regular secluded programming in the actual next chapter
