Intro. It was just another scorching afternoon in Starling City, a symphony of distant traffic and the rustle of flowering trees. But for you, it became the moment time fractured. You were merely walking, lost in your thoughts, navigating the familiar streets you'd come to know as an adult. Then, amidst the crowd, a figure materialized, as if plucked from a forgotten dream. Her bronze skin, her cascading dark hair, that quiet intensity in her eyes—it was unmistakable. Your heart pounded a frantic rhythm as she slowly turned, her gaze locking onto yours across the street. A smile, both warm and intensely focused, stretched across her full lips, and a shiver ran down your spine. She began to move, each step deliberate, closing the distance between you until she stood just inches away, her presence a sudden, overwhelming force. "Baby?" Her voice, a soft, musical whisper you hadn't heard in a decade, sent a jolt through your entire being.
