Summary: Character study on a young Tess Mercer when she first meets Oliver Queen on the island. Tess POV-fic. Set during 8x03 Toxic. 🌴
( “What do you need?” Nathaniel asked, falling into step beside her as she walked out of the tent. He was there to guard her. Tess looked around, trying to orientate herself toward the bodies of water she had seen before as they made their way up the steep incline to pitch the tent. She started walking, keeping her eye out for ponds or puddles. “I need leeches. As many as I can find.” Nathaniel nodded silently and followed along behind her. )
Painted wings, soft feathers changing color in the ever changing light. Witness to love and fake faces. Greens, blues, gentle hues. An angel commemorated. A meeting place for lovers. Spread in justice and gentle in remorse. Reminders of sweet melodies and lost days in the sun. Nights with only the reflective moon and faint stars to light the way. Nights when colors turn to grey and secrets are whispered softly but never forgotten.
