"Raisa, can you leave us alone please?" Oliver asked as Laurel got off his lap and Raisa nodded as she left the 3 of them alone.
"Tell if you know this means to you, Spartan?" Oliver asked John.
"The same thing Green Arrow means to you." John said with a smirk.
"Wait, John, is that really you?" Laurel asked.
"Yeah, it's me Laurel and I have to say, it is so good to see both of you again. Especially together." John said.
"Seriously, I always thought that you supported me and Felicity?" Oliver asked and John chuckled.
"More like Thea and I were just trying to be supportive, but Oliver, even she could see how much you cared about Laurel, it's part of the reason she broke up with you the first time." John said.
"How do you know that?" Oliver asked.
"You do realize that while may have only been a day for you since you died on our Earth, to me, it's been 2 years." John said and Oliver nodded, since considering all the other strange stuff they've seen. That didn't even shock him.
"You seem to be taking this whole coming back to life thing better than I thought you would." Oliver said.
"Honestly, considering how crazy my life has gotten since I first met you and then Barry and then Kara, you know, earthquake machines, super soldiers, metahumans, magic, multiverse and we've already seen resurrections, this is just a walk in the park." John said and Oliver nodded.
"What happened after I died?" Oliver asked.
"I took back over as Green Arrow, Quentin became the new mayor and Felicity did whatever she had to do to get Rene locked up for life in Iron Heights, which he is." John said.
"I never should've trusted him." Oliver said.
"Let's not focus on that for now. Let's focus on the fact that all three of us are back together." Laurel said and John nodded as he hugged her before turning to Oliver.
"You looking for a partner?" John asked.
"I was already taking steps to bring you in and it's refreshing to know I won't have to ditch you this time around." Oliver said and John smiled as they hugged as well.
"Great, where's your lair going to be?" John asked.
"We'll start out in the foundry and eventually, work our way up to the bunker. By the way, you gotta suit?" Oliver asked.
"Yeah, this guy, the Beyonder, he hooked me up with my Spartan suit." John said.
"John, how did you die?" Laurel asked.
"Vigilante, the son of a bitch took me out while I was working my job as Quentin's security, and I died on my way to the hospital." John said.
"Well, on the bright side, on Earth One, Lyla will be gunning after Vigilante full force." Oliver said and John nodded.
"And now we've got 3 members of the team back together." Laurel added.
"Yep, I'll tell my mom to make you my security guard tomorrow, so that you have an excuse to be here." Oliver said and John nodded.
"Oh, one more thing, I heard that you guys have a kid?" John asked.
"Yeah, a daughter named Jasmine. She's sleeping upstairs, but you can meet her tomorrow." Oliver said.
"Let's just hope that nothing changes her into a son." John said.
"What?" Laurel asked and Oliver explained the whole Flashpoint situation to her.
"Okay, if the Barry of this universe ever does anything like that, I will kill him." Laurel said.
"Get in line." Oliver said.
"Anyways, so what's the plan for Team Arrow?" John asked.
"We start out the way did before, only with your help and a little less killing until Malcolm makes his first big move and this time, I'll be ready, since I won't be going in alone." Oliver said, looking at John, who nodded.
"I'm just glad that one advantage of this is that my body is completely healed, no nerve damage or anything." John said.
"What nerve damage?" Laurel asked.
"The year after we dealt with HIVE, we faced a new enemy called Prometheus, who is actually Justin Clayborne's son who was insane and that ended with him trapping the team, plus your dad and my son on Lian Yu. While I stopped him, he killed himself to trigger a dead man switch which blew up the island and John took some shrapnel to the arm, damaging his nerves." Oliver said.
"Okay, sounds like I'll need more info." Laurel said.
"Yeah, I'll tell you later." Oliver said and she nodded.
"Well, I should probably get going before someone figures out I'm somewhere I shouldn't be." John said and Oliver nodded.
"It's good to see you John." Oliver said.
"You to Oliver. And you Laurel." John said and Laurel nodded as she hugged him before he left.
