Laurel Lance
a little comparison....
Laurel Lance:
grew up in a nice stable family (this is clear bc she obviously went to a rich school (oliver went there) and had a stable, not divorced family)
had a perfect life literally
ONLY WENT FOR OLIVER BECAUSE SARA LIKED HIM WTF
boyfriend cheated with her on her sister (one of the only problems she ever had to deal with it)
still able to go to law school *which her parents obviously payed for* , got a nice job (and lived in a fucking amazing apartment besides being a civil servant)
basically had an easy fucking life other than oliver (which is like you knew he was a fucking frat boy come on)
treated sara like a bitch (the flashback to when sara got on the boat with oliver episode)
sister died (then came back to life - and she fucking was rude as hell to her until she finally apologized but seriously who is hateful to their sister who came back from the dead what the actual fuck)
literally nothing else happened to her (except being an alcoholic for like 2 days and insta recovery)
sister died again (that sucked and i did feel bad, but then she goes against everyone else’s words and better judgment and brings her back, not caring about what it will subject her too)
SLEPT WITH OLIVER RIGHT AFTER TOMMY
TRIED TO KISS OLIVER AFTER TOMMY DIED
FUCKING TREATED TOMMY LIKE ASS, AND HONESTLY IS THE REASON HE IS DEAD (she had to save the files guys!!)
blackmailed ppl to get her job back after she was rightfully disbarred
finally died bc she was inexperienced and dumb and shouldn’t have been in the field and was more of a hindrance than a help to the team
Felicity Smoak:
father left her and her mom when she was young
mom was always working at a vegas bar (and not exactly easy to deal with)
was poor, had to put herself through college
in college, designed a genius super virus, which her boyfriend used in a bad way, then hung himself (which she blamed her self for) only to come back after five years to try and kill her and her mother (lol laurel thought oliver was bad come on bitch suck it up)
managed to get herself a job working her ass off at QC Consolidated
helped walter discover moira’s secrets, not afraid to speak up for herself or get fired – because she knew she was doing important stuff
joined oliver’s crusade, saved his life, did it all for Walter, and convinced oliver to do “some real good in the city”
supported oliver and diggle no matter what
saved the fucking city from one of the bombs (meanwhile laurel saved her files!!)
got oliver to come back and save the city
became an executive assistant (putting back her career and goals) FOR THE GOOD OF THE FUCKING CITY AND SHE DESERVED BETTER
had to deal with Isobel treating her like a bitch
HAD TO DEAL WITH LAUREL BEING A BITCH (”that would mean you would have to fire her” and the bitchy ass eye roll when Felicity dared to talk to Oliver about actual important stuff”)
moira fucking blackmailed her and tried to get her not to tell oliver the truth - which she still fucking did even tho she was afraid she would lose yet another person
got shot taking a bullet from sara (and learned to put aside her insecurities and become friends with sara (unlike laurel who took like forever to appreciate her sister coming back from the dead))
fucking risked her life (without being asked) to go with slade and injected him with the cure and fucking saved the day
basically saved the day every damn time
dealt with oliver being an ass about barry and what not
helped diggle always
then decided when oliver was being a little bitch she would get more from her life (didn’t fucking dote on him like laurel)
had to deal with her friend sara’s death
became a fucking vice president of a company - which she fucking earned
kicked as a VP
ex BF came back to try and kill her - and she fucking saved herself and her mom
had to deal with the man she loved dying
helped laurel and supported her even tho she was fucking useless (only person who did this)
stood up to oliver for laurel
stood up to oliver about the entire reason they were in that mess
her boyfriend got shot - she had to fucking save him - and she did
fucking saves olivers live using ray’s suit
not to mention hacking all the cameras and what not helps find the virus in the city
so basically saves the day again
finally has some happiness with oliver
then they come back
forced to fire people - but she finds a way around it - becomes a kick ass CEO
kicks ass at both things - only person to support oliver as mayor
then oliver starts lying to her about his kid, and proposes to her - she gets shot
paralyzed for months - but finds a way to accept it and grow into it
her dad comes back after YEARS- only to try and use her position to run a scam - breaks her heart all over again
finds out her mom made him leave - meaning both her parents have been lying to her since she was seven in a BIG FUCKIGN WAY
curtis gives her a way to walk again - then finds out oliver has been lying to her for months - since BEFORE THEY WERE ENGAGED WHEN MERYLN AND THEA KNEW BUT NOT FELICITY BECAUSE WHY??
has to go through a wedding with the person who lied to her (whom she loved) (also why does everyone lie to her)
gets fired bc she has to spend all her time saving the city and can’t devote time to her job
havenrock - had to fucking make this choice and takes all the guilt and the blame to save millions of lives
then fucking saves the world AGAIN
season 5, struggling with haven rock - no one is fucking there to help her or talk about it with her
new bf gets killed
gets john out of prison
literally saves the day again
finds out who black siren is and punches her out (I REWATCH THIS EVERY DAY)
has to join helix when no one fucking listens to her
finds susan, saves oliver’s career
fucking GETS A PICTURE OF ADRIAN AS PROMETHEUS
then the entire team doesn’t support her when she fucking has a way to find prometheus (bc god forbid a strong women does something remotely questionable)
DOES IT ANYWAY AND SUCCEEDS
temporarily paralyzed again
gets kidnapped by adrian
blown up on an island
NEED I FUCKING GO ON…

they say the good die young, but they never really tell you that they never die alone.
Laurel Lance
when plastic surgery (on the right) makes you even uglier than you already are... (too bad emily is 1000 x better at acting and is naturally prettier - not to mention has the muscle and body that would be believable of a canary, unlike laurel)
Sara Lance was the best Black Canary
the black canary we deserved
the one we needed (and finally got)
the one we had to suffer through
