A friend and I were re-watching s2 and were discussing Moira&Felicity and she said something like “Oliver basically married his mother” and I was wondering about your thoughts on this subject? Because I have kinda noticed a few similarities between the two women.
I think Felicity is tough and bad ass like Moira. They both fight for the ones they love. But Felicity has a moral fortitude that Moira did not have. Yes, she crossed lines a little bit in Season 5 but Dark Felicity is nothing compared to Moira. I love Moira, but she did some pretty shady things in the name of protecting her family. This included lying to her children about some major stuff. So, I don’t think Oliver married his mother. The characters are to different in my mind for that to be the case.
