Arrow Season 4: 11 Big Questions We're Asking After 'Genesis'
3. Are We Headed Back Towards Oliver And Felicity?
I can imagine the sighs of everyone who hates the idea of Oliver and Felicity being together (or at least what their coupling turns the show into) when he says that he heard her voice when he found the light, and the cheers of every Olicity shipper.
Although the pair are still separated, the idea of them as a couple has never properly gone away, and it hangs over the scenes between the pair. At this point, especially with Laurel dead, it's really difficult to see the show heading in a direction whereby they have both characters on Team Arrow but not together.
Perhaps a better question is can the show find a way of having them together, without it dominating everything, changing both characters in ways that aren't true to who they are, and making the show far more of a soap-opera than it needs to be? I'd like to think so, if they are committed to it anyway, but the show's yet to prove it.
