Mia looked up, arms crossed over her chest. "I don't think. I know," she said. "The only one that doesn't think I'm ready are you. So I'm going out there with or without you, it's up to you."

[hercesofourtime]

If there was one thing she had heard more than once in her life, and probably would hear more times that she wanted, it was that she was a lot like her father. Her mother had told her that ever since she was a child, a part of her loved that, but the other part of her didn't want to be anything like her father. "Everyone thinks they know or can guess," she mumbled, "like I get that everyone has lost someone." She pressed her lips together. Fingers rubbed against her thumb. "I don't get why talking would help it's not like you can talk and they'll be here." She sunk down to the floor, arms wrapped around her knees as she pulled them up against her chest. "Mom is gone, Will is missing," she closed her eyes, "I guess that's how it's supposed to be, I'm destined to be alone. Or people keeping everything from me because it's for you own good. Maybe I can decide if it's for my own good."

OUCH. Kara folded her hands in front of her somewhat awkwardly, pausing as Mia snapped at her. "I'm sorry, Mia." She began. "Maybe I don't know exactly what you're going through, but I have had great loss in my own life." She wanted the other to open up, or at least feel like she could. Mia was much more like her father than Kara cared to think about. Oliver intimidated her sometimes, HER, the girl of steel. . . So, having someone else with that capability was slightly unnerving. "I want to let you know that I am here, if you do decide that you want to talk. I won't force you to, but I wanted to put it out there."

8. for our muses to spoon -  Mia X lena

Mia felt how her body was shaking, one look at her hand and she could see how it was moving as she lifted it. She glanced to the side, both her favorite knife and small arrow was laying on the bedside table, she knew that the bow was close by, the same with her quiver. She looked down on her knees, “I’m sorry,” she said, her voice barely over a whisper, and Mia wasn’t sure on if Lena had even heard her in the first place.

The small shift in the bed behind her told her that Lena had heard her, and she felt a pair of arms around her, pulling her down on the bed, and she felt Lena’s body pressed against her back, Mia felt the warm breath against her neck. She was supposed to be the one that protected and consoled the woman next to her, this wasn’t what it was supposed to be liked, “I should have been faster.” She had been to caught up in staring at Lena, to realize what was about to happen, if she hadn’t she would have stopped it before it happened. Mia turned around to face her, she pushed a couple of strains of hair away from Lena’s face, her thumb moving over her cheek, and she turned Lena around holding her in her arms and she could feel her heart beating against her own hands, and how Lena’s chest raised as she breathed. Maybe just maybe, Mia could relax at least a little.

❛  will you please tell me what happened?  ❜ ---oliver for mia 

“it’s nothing,” mia replied, her eyes on her father. “it’s not like i haven’t had worse.” there had been more than once where she had had worse injuries, “you know, both mom and aunt nyssa knows that i can take of myself.” she pushed the ice pack against her eye, “besides, now no one will mess with me.” a small smile almost teased over her lips, "and it's not like you'd tell anyone what happened if you had a black eyes and a busted lip, or you know got stabbed."

[hercesofourtime]

@beycndredemption said:  i would not see you injured. (nyssa @ mia)

Mia looked, up, she used the back of her hand to wipe away from blood from her lip. "Yeah, maybe everyone should have thought about that before they decided to keep everything from me," she replied, "and I know what I'm doing, I can take anyone and everyone down." Mia looked at her, "you taught me everything I know," she said, "and you've always been honest with me why didn't you tell me?" she asked, hand clenched, "and I'm not injured not more than normal. Feel free to stay and watch the next fight."

[hercesofourtime]

Maybe deep down Mia knew that Laurel was right, and maybe she was showing the worst qualities that she and her father shared. but someone had taken her brother and she had no idea on where he was or what had happened. “well, I can handle myself,” she replied ready to leave, “besides that it’s my fault that he’s missing so I need to find him and make sure he’s okay.” She rubbed her hand against the back of her neck glaring at Laurel, she might have a point, and maybe she needed another in put, “that’s the thing I don’t have anything because I don’t remember anything besides that we were at the statue talking and then I woke up there and William was missing.”

SHE UNDERSTOOD MIA WAS UPSET AND WORRIED but she couldn’t keep running around like this without a lead, or a sense of knowing where they had to go next. “mia stop for one goddamn second!” she spoke as she turned around towards her. she understood rage, and anger. she had come to this earth in that state and it had not brought her any peace, any comforts. she never felt best until she had really bonded with this team. she wanted to help mia with that if she could, but damn that girl was stubborn. suppose she got that from oliver, he’d always been that way. “mia it’s not about telling anyone, this is me worried about your stubborn ass. so sit down. you want to find william but you don’t have to do that alone and it’ll be easier with help. so sit down, and let's go over what you have so far.”

❛  when was the last time you ate something?  ❜

her fingers rubbed together, her leg shaking as she sat, looking over the table at Sara. Mia knew that she needed to say something, anything. Maybe it was longer than she though since the last time she had had anything to eat, but she didn't really care, she wasn't hungry, and besides that too much was going on. "I don't know," she replied, "why? You think I look hungry or something?"

1. for one muse to surprise the other with breakfast in bed - Mia X ruby

Mia couldn’t help the smile that played over her lips. There was nothing that could convince her that she hadn’t made the right decision in coming here. Maybe it would have been better if she actually had told someone where she was going, and not just sent her mother a text from the plane not to worry and that the plane would be back in 24 hours, and for her not to track her phone. 

Showing up to celebrate Ruby’s birthday, just the two of them had been the right call, and yeah, last night was even better than she thought it would be. She shook her head, trying to get rid of the smile on her lips but it was near impossible as she grabbed the tray, taking one last look making sure that she had everything on it before she made her way back to the bedroom.

“Moring,” she said, placing the tray next to the bed. Mia leaned down and pressed a small kiss against Ruby’s lips, “Happy birthday,” she whispered, and she reached for the tray, placing it on the bed next to Ruby. “I thought that we might need some energy before we spend some time in bed celebrating your birthday again.”

[hercesofourtime]

Besides both of her parents, one of the constants in her life had been the bow and arrows that came with it. It hadn't taken long for her to want to try, and use it. She had just wanted to be like her father, maybe not the part about running around in green leather in a city, but the part where she could handle a bow and protect herself and the people she cared about, but the older she got, the more, and the better she understood what he was doing, well what both of her parents were doing.

At this point in her life it was more about a question about when, and not if she was going to take over after her father. She was sure that she had the knowledge to do so. She wasn't sure on how long she had been firing arrow after arrow, hitting their target.

She shook her head and rolled her eyes, "I think it's more about a question about how many times you've told me today," she replied, and reached for one last arrow and she nocked it against the how and pulled back the string, she looked at her father as she released the arrow, and she knew, she had felt when she released it that it hit it's target. "Sure, burgers?" she asked, "and a milkshake," a grin played over her lips. "And after we could do like an arrow off and see if I've got you beat this time."

@hercesofourtime | Oliver & Mia

There were few things in the world that Oliver was prouder of than his daughter; from the moment she was born, he'd watched every mile stone she'd hit in her life with awe, from her first steps to starting school, and to the day she'd told him she wanted to learn how to use a bow. If their lives had ever been anything close to normal, he probably would have said no - but normal was overrated, and his daughter was going to know every way possible to defend herself. Unsurprisingly, Mia had taken to handling the bow as well as she had everything else; by the time she was ten years old, Oliver was sure she could have easily beaten even him in a contest.

And now here they were, a few years later, Mia now almost a grown woman, and Oliver finally contemplating retiring the Green Arrow - and still she amazed him. Watching her arrow hit the final target, Oliver pushed off from the door frame he'd been leaning against, applauding her with a pride filled smile on his face.

"Have I ever told you how proud I am that you're my daughter?" It was a trick question, of course - Oliver had made a point of making sure Mia never doubted how proud he was of her. "How about you let your old man buy you lunch?"

@xbasorexiax​ liked this for a starter from MIA SMOAK QUEEN for Clara Bishop-Deluca

Mia had always known that she didn’t have the same kind of smarts as her brother, or her mother, but she had always managed to pass her classes, she might not have all As but she still had good grades. That was why she had been surprised when she had gotten her last test back, she had passed but barely: Mia knew that she could ask both her brother and mother for help with her classes but she didn’t want to. She could do this herself, but the more she tried to understand that math the worse it got. She ran a hand over her head, she was close to throwing her book across the room and just headout, forgot about the upcoming test and fail it, and then try to figure out how to hack the school and change her grade without leaving any trace after her.

She cleared the table in front of her, books and notes in her bag, when she saw a familiar face. Clara. Maybe if she asked nicely she could get some help from her classmate. Mia wasn’t sure on exactly what she was supposed to say to get Clara to agree, they hadn’t after all talked that much before. “Hey,” she said as she stopped in front of her, “so I was thinking,” she began, “you’re smart right? And most of the time I am too but it seems like I have some trouble with getting everything before the math test so I was hoping that we could study together.” A small smile almost showed over Mia’s lips, “or you could help me it wouldn’t take a lot of time. I swear. And I’d help you if you need help with something.”

@xstabcastx said:  ‘❤’ (mia x ruby)

Send ‘❤’ for my muse’s reaction to a New Year’s Eve kiss from yours.

Mia looked around the room, a small breath left her lips, she watched how her friends and family moved around the room, talking and laughing. It was the same as the year before, and the year before that. It seemed like New Years was always the same.  A small smile played over Mia’s lips as she Ruby, she still couldn’t believe that it had been a year since the first time they had kissed, so maybe, it wasn’t exactly the same New Years party, but the food, the drinks, and the people was the same. 

She let out a breath, as she made her way through the room, her eyes were on her girlfriend, she still couldn’t believe that she got to call Ruby her girlfriend, even if had been a year. As she made her way through the room, she grabbed a couple of glasses of champagne, when she reached the brunette she handed one of the glasses and smiled at her. “Hi,” Mia breathed out smiling at her. Her arm wrapped around Ruby’s waist smiling at her, “are you having a good time?” Before she had a chance to get an answer she felt Ruby’s lips against hers, “I’m taking that as a yes,” Mia replied a grin played over her lips, “and also I thought we agreed to no kiss until midnight.”

Mia held her phone in her hand, and she tried to find the right angle for the photo that she had been trying to take for the last ten or so minutes but none of the photos that she had taken had been good enough. They had either showed too much, or not enough. 

She was surprised that Ruby hadn’t sent any more texts, or even called her and asked about why the photo hadn’t been sent yet. She decided on taking one last picture, and send it, not matter how it turned out.

A smile spread over her lips as she saw the photo, maybe that was how she was supposed to do this, not think too much about it, and she was sure that Ruby would be happy with the picture no matter what. She sent the photo and waited for a reply.

                     SMUTTY   INTERACTIONS ! | accepting

Mia closed her eyes, she felt how a shiver ran up her back, as she felt Ruby’s hand on her thigh, slowly moving higher and higher up her leg. She really tried her best not to look down. She should have known that something like this was about to happen, but Mia really wanted a chance to make a good impression on her mother, of course, Mia had met her before, but not as Ruby’s girlfriend, and now said girlfriend was caressing her thigh, under the table, but still in front of her mother.

Mia turned to Ruby, with a smile on her lips, as she moved a hand down, and put it over Ruby’s hand, and shook her head. It almost seemed to egg her girlfriend on even more. And it was getting harder and harder for Mia to sit still, and not give away what was going on. She took a breath, and leaned closer to Ruby, she pressed a kiss against her cheek, “can you wait until we’re alone,” she whispered, “or like not moving your hand so far up.”

Uh oh! My muse is having difficulty unzipping their dress/jacket. Send me ➹ for my muse's reaction to your coming up and unzipping their clothing without being asked. Ruby X Mia

Mia wasn’t sure on how long she had tried to reach the zipper on the back of dress. She sighed, there was a reason to why she didn’t wear dressed with the zipper on the back. It hadn’t helped to try and use the mirror, so she could see where the zipper was. She was close to just ripping her dress off, she knew that if she did, both her mother and grandmother wouldn’t be happy.

She could hear the steps, someone was coming, and before she had a chance to turn around to see who it was, she felt one hand on the small of her back, and the other grabbed the zipper of her dress, “thank you,” she said, “I was going to rip it off,” she said, and she turned around and smiled at Ruby, “but it’s not nice sneaking up on people.” Mia looked up, her eyes met with Ruby’s “and if you wanted to help me out of the dress and see what it looked like on the floor, you could just have told me,” a small smirk played over his lips.

Send “You’re hot when you’re angry” for my muse’s reaction to your muse saying this. 

Mia looked up, she had her jaw clenched together, her hands were clenched into fists, she felt like her whole body was vibrating. She wasn’t sure on why she felt the anger running through her body, she shouldn’t be angry. But it didn’t help that Ruby tried to be cute. Mia looked at her, “so you think I’m only hot when I’m angry?” she asked, “or...” her eyes on the girl in front of her. “And just so you know,” she took a step closer, her arms crossing over her chest, “that wasn’t as cute as you thought it was and maybe I’ll get angrier too. So I’ll be even hotter.” She actually turned around, and looked at Ruby over her shoulder, “You think you can handle me if I get even hotter?”

"Hello, hello, never thought I'd see dear old Johnny's apocalyptic gang again. Was your trip to purgatory sufficient? I must admit I'm pleased to see you made it out." 

Mia looked up, there was something familiar about the voice and as she saw who it was. “You,” she said, “I don’t know how Johnny is,” she replied, “it was okay,” a small smirk played over her lips, “I’ve been at better places to get a better review than that I should have gotten a t-shirt that said I survived purgatory or you know not have had my dad make some weird deal and actually left with us.”
