Thana hadnt been feeling herself lately . Ollie .. Well she didn't even know where he had gone so she was running Team Arrow by herself . Not that there was much team arrow left . More of a one person shenanigans .

Lucas was someone she could talk to . Especially over the last year she had grown , matured . Become a woman with powerful gifts and a strong head . Lucas knew magic better then anyone she knew , even the green lanterns . She wanted to talk to him about it , and anything else that came up . It did help that he was kinda really hot too .. Maybe in another life ... Maybe .

She sat in her apartment , her single one bedroom apartment and waited to see if he would show . Currently she was sipping a cup of hot cocoa and had her books out in front of her . Maybe . Maybe if she asked nicely Lucas might teach her or give her some books on magic so she could better understand it and the new threats that were always in the darkness . Threatening to show themselves . Thana was good , but even she knew she simply didn't have the skills by herself to take on every enemy that came .

After fighting Dark Thana. Lucas wanted nothing to do with Thana. He kept watch on her that was it. When he was requested to go see her. he solely agreed only to go because Ollie asked him to. he took a deep sigh and wrapped in front inside of the building. And looked at her. "Well. Lucas was shirtless as he was cutting wood. "What is it that wished for me to do?" He said, he glanced at his body snapped his fingers and would then have his shirt appear. "Last time we met we fought in the battlefield. I see the Vampire problem has been taken care of." he said quietly. As he looked at her.

Thanas eyes wandered as she saw Lucas shirtless . Damn that was some man candy she was looking at . She looked at him , " Lucas that was two years ago ." She reminded him gently . " With Ollie away ..
I wanted to talk to you . It's not easy having secrets that others don't understand ." She said . " there's a few straggling vampires , but it's sorted yes ."

She raised an eyebrow as she looked at him " where are my manners , would you like a seat ? Or something to drink ?"

He looked at how she eyed his shirtless body. "You've grown. Yet your still a brat." he said taken a seat. "You shouldn't have let darkness take over." he told her. "Whiskey would be nice right about now. If you have any." he told her honestly while he looked at her eyes. "What are you nineteen twenty now?" he wondered. "What did you wish to ask me?" he questioned her.

Thana looked at him " I'm not a brat." She said , raising an eyebrow . " darkness no longer becomes me ." She pointed out

" twenty in a few weeks , so I'm told ." She answered , rolling her eyes . " I wanted to talk , there's no direct question really . I just want to learn what info you have ."

Lucas looked at her. "Sure we can talk. Let's talk. Your much more older that's good. You're in an adult." he told her slowly. With that being said he would sigh to himself and look at her. "Thana, your cute." he told her.

Thana sat with her knees tucked close to her , " You would I imagine know quite a bit about magic where I don't .. I was wondering do you have any books or anything I could read to learn ?" She asked before raising an eyebrow as he called her cute " You know sarcasm is mean right ?" She said to him, " And cute is not the world I would use , but thank you ." Thana flicked her hair behind her .

Right now apart from Diggle , Lucas was the only one they Thana kept in contact with from the fight . Even Nyssa she hadn't seen in ages .

He looekd at her and he smiled. "I know enough magic to deal with intergalactic threats. You want my help right?" He asked her. "I'll tell you what. You and I have dinner. And then the two of us will talk about business. Sounds fair and legit?" he asked her curiously. "I wasn't being sarcastic by the way." He informed Thana with a gentle smile on his lips as he looked into her eyes.

" I want help to learn yes ," she answered. " Dinner huh ? Sure ." Thana answered , if dinner meant that she got help she would take it . She didn't have access to the library green lanterns had so it wasn't easy .

She looked at him as he said he was serious about the compliment , biting her lip . Everyone knew Ollie had hurt her really badly by leaving . " You're not too bad yourself ." She said quietly , looking away . "Umm what time do you want to go to dinner and where ?"

Looking her. "Yes we should. Actually we should have the dinner now and I shall cook for you." He would then smile to her and nod his head he was was serious about all this in fact he was so serious as he took her hand and would bring it to his chest. "You need to open up more. And honestly to tell you the truth. You deserve to be loved." he said holding her hand tightly against his chest. Once that was done he let go of her of hand.

Thana looked at him " but you won't eat what I have here ." She said smiling a little " It's all Vegan food ." She warned

Thana. Froze a little as he put her hand on his chest . " I opened up once and look where it got me ." She said , looking away again and stood " I'll be back .. I don't think you're going to eat my food .. I'll go get you some meet ."

He looked at her and smiled. "We should totally like eat what you have here? I don't mind." he told her quite honestly. With that being said he would nod his head and sigh to himself before he would look at her and giggle. "You know I won't hurt you, Thana." he told her.

Thana watched him , " alright . Here I'll help you ." She said , " have you cooked vegan food ?" She offered , smiling a little . Watching him as he spoke . " I want to believe you ." Thana said quietly , " But I can't be promised something when the last person that promised it left ."

She felt horrible , she wanted to trust Lucas but the fact was she was she wasn't able to trust anyone . " Come on . I help you." She began getting vegetables and stuff for a garlic vegetable pizza

It was horrible that Thana couldn't trust because of what Ollie did. He looked at her. "You dated a guy who is the most complex. What did you honestly Expect, Thana. You don't seem to date normal people. No offense. I expected this from Ollie as long as I've known him." He told her. It's like dealing with that Annoying Fire User Sithis who can easily kill people. And was highly skilled in close quarters and who fucked everything that was a women. it was just like Ollie but different. "Just so we are on the same page, Thana. Magic dealing is complex to learn." He told her. He got up, and shooed her away as he took the knife and begun chopping them himself. "I live on my own. hun. I know how to cook." he winked at her.

Thana looked at him " we weren't dating Lucas , we never did anything like that ." She said quietly . She had been close to sleeping with him but it never happened " I trusted him , but we .. Never got together ."

Thans looked at him " I don't expect it to be easy , but with only you and me protecting this city I need to be able to cover every angle and every threat ." She said , smiling and got him chopping the garlic as she made a vegan cashew sauce

He blinked at her. So She hasn't Met Manhunter yet, who also protected the city. Sithis even protected the city once in a while. But he was normally the enemy. Then there was Jasper, and a few others. he looked at her and smiled. "Yah your right." he informed her with a gentle smile on his lips.

Thana knew there were others protecting this city , but Lucas was one of the few who knew Ollies identity . She kept making the stuff needed for dinner " So where's your girlfriend huh ? You shouldn't still be do the with those muscles ."

She got the pasta on ready to boil , getting some herbs and such ready

He shook his head as he stopped cutting veges. "I do not have a girlfriend." he told her quite honestly. "We having noodles today, Aye?" He asked her curiously. As he chucked. With a smile on his face she was funny. It was too Cute.

" not noodles , it's a different ingredient." She argued " pasta , not noodles though I did have noodles last night ." Thana said " I'm honestly suprised you're single ." She admitted

Once the pasta was boiling she added pumpkin purée and coconut milk to a pan , adding the cashew " milk " and let it thicken . Browning the garlic and herbs and onions before adding the vegetables " pour in the sauce ?" She asked

He looked at her and gave her a small smile. "You know. I understand but listen. I really don't want to be single. i want to be with someone and be happy." he told her with a smile. With that being said he would then shake his head as he watched her cook.

Thana listened " well I'm sure you will find someone ." She promised him , smiling and dished up the food " here ."

She sat on her couch and grabbed a fork happily and began to eat , classy but hungry she finished her first bowl rather quickly . Then moved on to the next .smilikg a little at her friend

Taken the bowl he sat next to her. "I do certainly hope I find someone." He said with a cheerful smile. He finished rather slowly it seemed he wasn't all that hungry but he ate either way. "So uhh, what did you want to ask me? Help with magic? I guess I can help you. What help do you seek. magic can be used in many ways. Dark Evil, light, healing, you name it. What are you looking for specifically?" He asked her curiously.

Thana listened and watched , " I need to learn anything you are willing to teach me about it . About what you know ." She said " I need to know what I can do to protect myself and this city from magic users and how it's applied and such ." She said to him honestly " plus it seems interesting as it is ."

So she wanted to learn how to magic huh? He sighed. "It's not something you learn over night. It takes years sometimes even centuries to take a good grasp of it. Even then there are threats out there that would be able to stop you if you can't control it. There's Light Magic and Dark Magic, offensive and defensive magic." he informed her quietly. "I'll teach you the basics. The rest. I'll teach you later on when you have a better health coordination as it requires you to have a better stamina to perform." he informed her.
