Reckoning (Black Siren-centric; G)

Ships: Black Siren/Nyssa, Laurel/Nyssa (referenced), Black Siren & Sara, Laurel/Felicity (referenced)

Summary: Black Siren has a lot to reckon with. Or, the three women with whom earth-2 Laurel knows she needs to square things, and the one woman who takes her by surprise.

A/N: So this fic has been a while in the making. I really love writing Black Siren, so I hope you all enjoy :) Thank you to Jazz/@yesokayiknow for the initial meta that sparked this and for reading it through for me, and to Mo/@stungunmilly2 for giving me ideas for the Laulicity portion, as well as Sophia/@sophiainspace for letting me hash this out with them for a while when I was stuck. You all rock :)

It’s sort of fitting, in a way, for the Black Canary to be Black Siren’s first stop. Briefly Laurel wonders what her archenemy will do to her when she sees her on her doorstep. It makes her hesitate as she raises her fist to knock on the door.

But the hesitation passes fairly quickly - Laurel raps twice on the door and hears rustling from inside and the faint click of a gun. Then there’s a sigh, maybe of exasperation or disbelief, yet nevertheless after a second the door opens.

“What do you want?” Dinah says roughly, and in all fairness Laurel can’t exactly blame her. In fact, Laurel’s surprised that Dinah has lowered her gun somewhat. To her credit, Dinah’s still in a fighting stance, feet apart, wary and ready for a fight.

Laurel holds her hands up quickly. “I’m not here to fight, Dinah. I just want to talk.”

To her surprise, and Dinah’s too, by the looks of it, Dinah softens a little at that, and it’s like they’ve both realised that this is the first time Laurel has addressed her by her actual name.

“Okay.” Dinah holsters her gun, puts her hands on her hips, waiting expectantly.

Laurel takes a deep breath. “Look, I just wanted to say - thank you. For coming to rescue Quentin - I mean, my father -”

“He wasn’t your father,” Dinah interrupts.

Laurel nods. “I know that. But I didn’t know my own father for very long.” Dinah raises her eyebrows, so Laurel supplies, “He died when I was only just a teenager.”

“I didn’t know that,” she says quietly.

“How could you? All you really know about me is how loud I can scream.”

coldatom, 59 :3c

59. “I am not losing you again.” (god this got long i’m sorry)

Ray had hoped that the last memory he would have of Leonard Snart would not be the man freezing Amaya and shattering her to the ground. 

He’d hoped and hoped, even as he fought the Legion, even as he fought Leonard. Young Leonard. Cold Leonard. 

It’s jarring, he thinks, as he remembers Leonard in his final days. As he remembers Leonard smiling at him. This Leonard, this Captain Cold doesn’t smile, he just smirks. He just snarls. 

He just kills.

It hurts Ray more than he ever thought it would. And he hopes, he hopes with everything he has that he’ll get to see their Leonard again, the team’s Leonard. His Leonard. 

He hopes it as his hand closes around the spear, as the Legends gather in a circle with their hands overlapping, with Nate reading out the words. He looks across at Mick, meets the man’s eyes, and knows somehow that they’re thinking the same thing. 

Somewhere deep inside, Ray knows he shouldn’t be hoping for this, shouldn’t be wishing for it, because his hand is on the Spear of Destiny, but he doesn’t care, he doesn’t care because they’re bringing Amaya back and if they can bring her back, why can’t they–

A blinding light hits and the world falls away. 

When he can see again, when he’s blinked away the brightness, at first he doesn’t realize what’s happened. Amaya’s back, she’s there, she’s enveloped in a pile of Sara and Nate and Jax and…And Leonard is lying on the ground, Cold Leonard, back where Mick had left him, had knocked him out, well, cold.

Then Ray turns, and there’s his Leonard. Wearing that same jacket that Ray had tried to wear, wearing that wide-eyed shock that Ray knows all too well. 

Ray’s moving before he realizes it, gathering Leonard in his arms. Instead of tensing, Leonard leans into it, even as his mind is probably whirling, trying to figure out where he is, what’s happening.

“I am not losing you again,” Ray says as he pulls back. And then he leans forward, and does what he should have done earlier, what he should have done so many times already. He kisses Leonard, soft and light, their lips pressed together for a second, a fraction of a second. 

“Shove over, Haircut,” Mick says, pushing Ray out of the way. Ray lets him, it’s not like he has any claim to Leonard. Mick grabs hold of Leonard’s shoulders and shakes him. “Don’t do that again, you hear?”

Leonard’s eyes flick back and forth between Ray and Mick. “How?” he asks, his voice soft. 

Ray shakes his head. “It’s, uh, a long story.”

And then the rest of the team comes over, to welcome Leonard back. Their Leonard. 

Leonard greets them all, still confused, still unsure. His eyes keep wandering back over to Ray. 

Sara and Mick frogmarch Leonard back to the Waverider, shove him into the medbay, and Ray trails behind, because it’s still not his place, Leonard still isn’t his. But he can’t stay away, he can’t let Leonard out of his sight, because what if he’s not real, what if he disappears…Ray knows that’s ridiculous, but he worries anyway. 

He hears Sara and Leonard talking, about a kiss that never should have happened, and he’s relieved when he realizes it’s not about him, it’s about them, and then Sara comes out into the hallway and pushes Ray into the room, closing the door behind her as she leaves. 

Ray and Leonard stare at each other, neither willing to break the silence, neither willing to look away. 

“You brought me back,” Leonard says finally, a statement, not a question. 

Ray nods. “I’ve–we’ve missed you.”

“You can say that you missed me, Raymond,” Leonard says, swinging his legs off the cot, standing up, walking forward. “I don’t mind.”

“I missed you,” Ray says, taking a step forward, meeting Leonard in the middle of the medbay, “so much.” 

Leonard reaches his hands up, cups Ray’s face. “You won’t lose me again,” he says, and brings Ray in for a kiss.

LOTS OF THEM

um first and foremost i need to see sara lance throw the second brick at stonewall became what a legend

i want a nyc vaudeville or golden age of broadway episode that involves ray accidentally getting cast

the Gang finds Gold in 1848 California

sara lance is the reason why queen elizabeth i was the virgin queen (this is a fallout post for queen elizabeth i, or should i say queen elesbian)

mick rory tried to start the great fire of london and fails. he thinks hmm this is probably for the better until stein and jax are yelling st each other and firestorm starts the great fire of london and mick is like OH COME ON

amaya engages in “friendly fisticuffs” with arthur conan doyle, and accidentally pounds him into the floor.

mick loses the persian empire to alexander the great, whoops

The Gang starts the Protestant Revolution despite none of them being Lutheran and maybe two of them are Christian

zari invents the moving picture.

The Gang parts the Red Seas

NATE HEYWOOD IS THE LAST OF THE ROMANOVS

Bernie Sanders | McDonald’s made $5.1 billion in profits last year and rewarded wealthy shareholders with over $7.7 billion.

Meanwhile, many McDonald’s workers need food stamps, Medicaid and public housing to survive. 

That is unacceptable. McDonald’s workers need $15 and a union.

87. "You’re not a bad problem, you’re a good problem. Not a problem, problem.” - coldatom

Everything is overwhelming and Ray can’t breathe. He’s back in his room, back in the safety of his private quarters with silence ringing in his ears. There’s so much he feels, but most importantly he feels the heavy drumming of his heart against his rib cage, thudding mercilessly. 

Ray brings his hands up, carding his fingers through his hair as he begins to pace back and forth, desperate to try and grasp back onto reality.
