Oliver!! Hey, I'm so glad I was able to run into you the other day.

Just wanted to follow up with another coffee date. How soon can you make it to the De Chima Citizen?

Voice

[reborningreen]

Iris! Goo to hear from you.

I can be there tomorrow, if you like? What time should I show up?

Voice

[eloquentness]

Tomorrow sounds perfect. Show up whenever; I don't have anything scheduled beyond writing and editing other people's articles.

Voice

[reborningreen]

Alright. I'll aim for about 11. When I was stuck in an office, that was when the morning always flagged for me.

I'm glad you reached out.

Voice

[eloquentness]

Sounds good to me. I'll keep my schedule cleared, and uh - let my assistant know, since I figure that's pretty important.

[ she has an ASSISTANT. This is where her life has taken her. ]

Of course. I know time works weird here, but... I really missed you, Oliver.

Voice

[reborningreen]

Very cool. I had an assistant once. Not sure what happened to them.

[ Something, something, Queen Consolidated collapsing, something. ]

I'm glad you're here. There's someone else form my world here, too, and I should introduce you sometime.

voice; backdated to early August

[eloquentness]

I know you're from my future and everything, so I've gotta ask... do Barry and I have grandkids yet?

voice; backdated to early August

[reborningreen]

...no. As far as I know, you don't even have kids!

I mean... it could have happened, with time travel and all. But, not that I know of.

What's going on?

[ There is a definite startled tone to his voice. ]

[eloquentness]

Nothing. [ she pauses, because she said that way too quickly - ] Nothing bad, I mean.

My grandson got ported in this month. He says he's a version from another Earth, but honestly, no one would make up being related to me... so I'm inclined to believe him.

[reborningreen]

Iris... [ Yeah, Barry doesn't get away with saying things like that, either. ]

...huhn. That's a different weirdness.

[ He nods to himself. ]

After everything I experienced back home with multiple Earths, including other versions of me, yeah, I believe it.

[eloquentness]

Hey, I know my value or whatever. [ she laughs, ] It's way more that I'm less famous. People can make up being related to the Flash, but reporter Iris West? That's an unlikely lie.

He's... he's also pretty young, Oliver. I'd guess high school?

Hey, I got your chocolates. When's go to bring 'em by and where?

voice

[reborningreen]

I can text you an address, and the answer is anytime, but if you want your present, you should come by tonight.

[ A text follows, with the address of his warehouse in Maurtia Falls. Which is absolutely not called the Arrowcave, dammit. ]

voice ↣ action

[heartstings]

A present? [Now she's curious.] A'ight, I'll be there soonish.

[It's totes the Arrowcave. And true to her word she's there probably ten to fifteen minutes later with his gift in hand.]

Yo.

voice ↣ action

[reborningreen]

Absolutely. See you soon.

[ And when she arrives, the door opens to reveal Oliver smiling, as he beckons her in.

Inside, it is a large warehouse, separated into several rooms, the main one of which is a training and analysis center, with bedrooms, a kitchen, and bathrooms, as well as a lab, off in different sections.

He leads her into the main section, where he lifts a small package and turns to hand it to her. ]

Happy early holiday.

[ Inside the package are three bottles, one each of very good Vodka, Bourbon, and Whiskey. As she had said. ]

[heartstings]

[Kenzi lets out a low whistle as she follows him through the building. For what appears to be a warehouse from the outside, it's pretty well outfitted on the inside. She can't help but be impressed.

She hands over his chocolates before opening up the package, squealing in delight as she pulls out a bottle.]

This is great! Thank you!

[A pause.] By the way, the chocolate might have melted a little. Sorry.

[catlady]

[ Carefully hung on the wall for Oliver to see, you know, sort of immediately: this. Meant purely for decoration, of course, and kind of old as hell.

There's a note pinned nearby: ]

Saw this and thought of you.

Xoxo

[ By that she means that it's stolen been graciously relieved from a collector, of course, but shhhh... No one needs to know... ]

[reborningreen]

[ Oliver laughs and sends a text after. ]

I love it. Thank you. I won't ask where it's from.

You should look in your closet.

[ Inside will be a simple green and black wrapped box, and in that is a simple cat statue, hand-carved, slowly, out of wood. Around that is wrapped a very nice, and she will find, well-fitting dress, ojne which matches her style. ]

card delivery! (mom)

[bifroster]

[Things had been crazy this month and she feels a little bad, but at least it’s something, right?

On his doorstep, Oliver will find a cute Christmas card and a short note wishing him a good holiday season and a Happy New Year.]

[heartstings]

[ A long sigh. ]

Where are you going?

Alright. If you need help, I'll be there.
