Oliver found a penthouse in the city that he liked. It was relatively isolated, meaning that no one would notice his movements as the Green Arrow and the terrace would also make it easy for him to get in and out undetected with his cable arrows. Also, it had plenty of space and it gave him a good view of the city. He could do a lot with this.

"So, mom, what do you think?" Oliver asked his mother and Walter walked around the penthouse, since it was technically their money he'd be spending on this place.

"I think that if you're moving out of home, this place is an excellent choice Oliver. However much you need to buy it is yours and we'll help you furnish it." Moira said.

"Thank you. While you're here, I actually have something I wanted to talk to you about." Oliver said.

"What is it?" Walter asked.

"I want to open a nightclub." Oliver said.

"That's actually not a bad idea Oliver. You spent so much time on the club scene when you were younger that no one knows it better than you." Moira said.

"Yeah, I just need to find a place to put it." Oliver said, since while the foundry would've been ideal if it was just him, but since he was still planning on building a team, he knew that it wouldn't be big enough.

"Any preferences?" Moira asked.

"Big basement. Preferably in the Glades. Provide new forms of income for people there, maybe even help with the growing crime scene, which seems to have only gotten worse while I was gone." Oliver said.

"Are you sure you don't want to be a humanitarian?" Walter asked jokingly and all three of them laughed.

"Very funny Walter." Oliver said.

"Anyways, we should probably get the paperwork signed and you packed up." Moira said and Oliver nodded.

"What's going on?" Thea asked as she saw boxes coming out of her brother's room.

"I found my own place." Oliver said, shocking Thea.

"You're leaving again?" Thea asked and Oliver smiled at her.

"I'm only 10 minutes away and I gave mom a key, so you guys can come over whenever you want, as long as you call ahead. Besides, I have spare bedrooms in case you ever want to stop by, but there are rules in my apartment." Oliver said.

"Okay, what are they?" Thea asked.

"No drugs unless it's been prescribed by a doctor and I have to see it to believe it." Oliver said.

"Seriously?" Thea asked.

"Yep, also, no surprise visitors." Oliver said and Thea understood the meaning of that.

"What have you done with my brother." Thea asked.

"I grew up and I think it's time you do to Thea. You'll be 18 in a few months and if you keep going the way you are now, you'll probably end up in accident like the Gambit, only you won't be lucky enough to come back." Oliver said, deciding that someone needed to be the parent to Thea since his own mother clearly wasn't ready to do it yet.

"Oliver." Moira said, getting both of their attention.

"She needed to hear it mom. Frankly, it's a talk you and Thea should've had a long time ago." Oliver said as he walked passed them to help pack up the truck.

"He's not wrong Thea." Moira said.

"Wait, what?" Thea asked.

"I should've confronted you a long time ago about everything Thea. I told myself that I was giving you space to mourn, but that's not it. All I've been doing is enabling you to throw your life away. I can't keep doing that. Because the way you're headed, it will end with you in a similar situation to what Oliver was in, only you won't survive. There will be changes made in your life Thea." Moira said.

"Like what?" Thea asked.

"You're grounded." Moira said.

"Wait, what?" Thea asked.

"You heard me Thea. I'm done enabling your childish behavior. Also, you're cut off. I suggest you start looking for a job." Moira said.

"You can't do that." Thea said.

"Actually I can. Your trust fund is compiled of my money, which means I can turn the switch off. From now on, if you want money, you have to work for it. Most kids your age have jobs. I suggest you find one until you prove to me that deserve my money." Moira said, making it clear that was final and leaving Thea shocked at what had just happened.
