[ Matt nods and moves behind the particle board bar to put an electric kettle on. ]

Congratulations. I didn't know.

[ And he admires Laurel more than he did a moment before because he's not sure he could deal with the things she's dealt with sober. ]

Of course not. It should be on the coffee table. [ He doesn't take it with him when he's doing the vigilante thing for lots of obvious reasons. ]

[She calls and leaves a message for Thea - she knows the other girl doesn't pick up numbers she doesn't know, so she hopes that the voicemail will be enough for her to call her back fast.

Then she follows with a message for Oliver, because Oliver just ... doesn't answer his phone. And then she'll place it back down again as she leans back.

And then a message on the house voicemail for Diggle and Lyla, because having that many irons in the fire couldn't hurt.]

Thanks. Hopefully they're all okay and someone will call me back.

[ Matt is happy enough to let Laurel use the phone, picking it up when Thea does call back. Of course, the voice assistant on his phone will announce to the room when Thea or Oliver return her calls. It's good to know that she still has people back home even if she's making a new life here.]

Feel free to pick the phone up when they do rather than go through me.

[ The kettle boils and Matt pours hot water into two mugs with waiting tea bags. It's anothing fancy, just standard English breakfast tea. ]

Sugar, lemon, honey? I think the milk in the fridge is still good. [ He kind of conspicously sniffs the air. ] Nope. Sorry. The milk is close to turning.

Just honey is fine.

[She likes her tea black, less so with her coffee, but tea isn't usually as strong.]

So can I ask how you got into the vigilante business?
