Oli didn't like the info dumping Alex was doing right now. They couldn't know who was or wasn't a skrull, and there quite simply wasn't any room for hoping that their previous confidants has been unaffected by the invading forces powers. If Oil had done that and told the team as soon as he had an inkling of the skrull attack, it could have been him replaced instead of Raynor, and that would have caused the situation to look drastically different than it did right now. As they approached the final stages of dealing with the skrulls, they just couldn't afford to make such careless moves.

Not that Oli was about to say any of those thoughts to the president of the United States of course. That would be suicide, especially for somebody like him that was literally an illegal alien. Being deported out of the country at best, or to the moon at worst did not sound particularly fun. He'd rather stay on the planet if he had a say in it, so he kept his mouth shut like the good secret service agent he was pretending to be.

Arthur took in Andy's face for awhile as they looked at each other, knowing that soon he'd be without her. He wanted to be able to remember what she looked like, because, it was a morbid thought, but he didn't know if she'd be making it back. He had no idea what he would do if that happened, but he would do everything in his power to make sure he wouldn't ever forget her. "Always." He nodded, as they walked towards the group. He cherished each moment they had together right now, taking in everything he could, and being as present in the moment as he possibly could.

Arthur smiled at Andy's sentiment. Even if they weren't physically always there for each other, they would be emotionally. As he looked Mads up and down, he had to wonder if he could have a role to play in saving her. He was the son of the God of the Underworld, surely he could force the doors open? As he thought this, terror ran down his face for a brief moment, as he recalled what happened when he tried to raise his half sister, and he shook his head, clearing out the thought. Maybe he could, but he was going to hope that that wasn't necessary. It would sting him too much to try to reach for a demigod's soul again.

Oliver was happy to see his plan of "Unfreeze the Avenger and hope they can deal with this better than I can" seemed to be working swimmingly, or at least, it seemed to be as Captain America slammed that legendary shield in the giant Skrull's face. His mood quickly damped though, as Raynor took a bad hit and fell onto the ground. He knew Asgardians were tougher by nature, but he still was worried. Starting to inch closer to Raynor to extricate him from the heart of the battle field, a lightning bolt arced through the air, directly at Bonnie. Stunned as he saw her catch it, and then subsequently end the giant, he allowed himself a smile.

Back to work, while Oli was stunned, Cass had swept in and started tending to Raynor's care. In the worst case, he thought Mar-Vell might be able to help, but this could mean Raynor would be out of commission for Geneva, which would be less than idea when talking about the possible end of the world. Oli was happy to have Alex go and try to deal with the kids, he wasn't terrible around them by any means, but Oliver hadn't exactly specced into charisma. Straightening himself out, he followed silently after Alex, acting as if he was just a secret service member at attention, keeping the president safe.

Arthur processed the sequence of things he heard slowly. He wasn't with Andy in Nancy's vision- they'd already have to split up on a mission, unable to protect one another. He felt uncomfortable not being with her, not being able to protect her at all. He pulled Andy into a side hug, feeling hollow inside. He knew she could defend herself, probably better than he could, but it was just the idea of him not being there at all, leaving things to the fates. He didn't know anything about Doors of Death or The Pit, just that it was somehow his dads domain, or at least adjacent to it.

He watched Niah swear and oath, and he gritted his teeth. He had no idea how binding that was, or what the consequences would be for not following it, but if he had to guess, he'd say the answers to those two questions would be "very" and "death". It was a stupid, rash move, but one that he at least respected the gesture of it. He nodded at Mads, saying, "We'll do whatever we can to keep you safe, I don't... know a lot about this stuff, but if I can help it, you'll be coming back to camp. I promise." He said quietly, but loud enough for them to have heard him.

As the fight began to turn, and Captain America was turned back into a Capsicle once more, Oli was at a crossroads. He could directly engage in the fight, but he wasn't confident in how many times he could hit the electric Skrull before passing out, or he could try a crazy idea. He knew that he was able to vibrate his and other people's molecules to phase through things, and that was something he'd gotten pretty good at, but looking at the flash-frozen Captain America, he suddenly thought of a brave new way for him to use this ability. Something being temperature was just the average kinetic energy of a system, so maybe he could infuse some into the Star Spangled Man.

Placing both hands on either of the Avenger's shoulders, Oliver concentrated, and tried vibrating the two of them at a new frequency. One that wouldn't send the two of them through the floor, but one that would, hopefully, get Cap heated up enough to unfreeze him without also cooking him. After a few moments, the thin sheets of ice adorning Captain America had broken away, falling and turning to faint water stains at their feet. Steve Rogers was now free, and back in the fight. Stepping away, Oliver started paying attention to the fight again, but not before saying, "I sure am glad that didn't kill you..." under his breath.

Arthur exhaled, and gripped Andy's hand tighter. Loss was the sort of thing he felt he was getting too used to, now feeling concern, but not a deep sadness over the fact that, apparently, Mads would be leaving them soon. He gritted his teeth, and looked on at their friends, pullin gAndy in for a side hug, before whispering, "Things'll be okay." He wanted to promise that, but he didn't know if he could, and the thought of lying to Andy made his stomach turn more than anything else at the moment. He couldn't, and wouldn't, promise her something he didn't know he could keep.

He tugged at Andy's shoulder, "Maybe we should go...." It felt wrong to be watching them like this, and the idea of revealing themselves after hearing something they weren't supposed to hear sounded like it could be incendiary to any kind of relationship the four of them had. He couldn't imagine how he would feel after hearing that he had a death sentence, but it wouldn't be anywhere near okay. If Andy wanted to run up and hug her aunt, he'd support her and be with her, but he wasn't about to force either of them into that situation, not without knowing what consequences it could bring.

Taking the nod from Raynor, Oli broke with Matt, and took an opposite side entrance to Matt. He didn't know much about tactics, but it certainly made sense to him that they didn't wanna all funnel in through the same spot. Looking about the room, he watched Alex punch himself, and pursed his lips. He wasn't gonna be too effective at traditional attacks here, so instead, he ran over and grabbed a flag, deciding to try to wrap the skrull up in it, hoping to immobilize him so the others could take him out. Stepping into super speed, he ran a tight circle around Skrull-Alex, entangling the skrull.

Feeling proud of himself for a moment, his face fell as the flag was torn to shreds, not for the symbolism of the flag being tarnished, but because his plan failed. Luck for Oli though, he was smart enough to have contingencies. Taking the poll the flag was on, he swung it wide, right into the fake president, knocking him on his ass. Stepping back, he then put distance between the two of them. He didn't think he'd be able to finish him off, and he'd rather be able to jump in and out of engagement that stay close and risk getting his head ripped off.

Arthur had to stifle a giggle at Andy's arthur, but merely shook his head. there were better ways to deal with people than abject violence, as fun as something like that could be. He'd figure out how to deal with Cassian later, watching him talk to Mads, he was surprised that he'd gotten this far in life with all his teeth still in his mouth. As Andy dragged him away, he shot a parting smile at Cassian, before turning away and not sparing him another glance. People like him wanted attention, and he was going to give him as little as possible, he'd have to earn it to get it from him.

As they entered the woods, Arthur kept holding Andy's hand, and gave her a hug once they were out of sight of the others, "That Cassian's terrible", he whispered, before eyeing Mads and Nancy. He didn't like the thought of following people, but they were all friends-ish, so he had to assume that it wouldn't be the end of the world if they noticed them. Other than that one comment though, he kept quiet. He didn't want to broadcast the fact that they were there by any means, and the more that he talked, they more likely that they'd end up being heard.

Oliver's number one focus besides the impending confrontation that they'd have to go through was to keep his damn mouth shut. He couldn't do an American accent for the life of him, and the paranoid part of his brain was convinced that a Welsh in the White House would raise too many eyebrows. The security part of his brain though, was considering writing up a report later to submit the government on how to prevent people with less pure intentions from pulling this off, but he wasn't convinced that they wouldn't lock him up for the sheer audacity, given the fact that they may at this point be rabid to get rid of him in one way or another.

As Captain Rogers approached and entered the Oval Office, Oliver was ready to move. The last fight with the Skrulls he used tricks he couldn't rely on here and once they were in the Oval, he'd need to stay there, no floor phasing parlor tricks. In truth, he was a little worried about getting through this unscathed, close up combat wasn't something he knew too much about, he was dependent on disorienting his targets and finishing things quickly, something he didn't think could be pulled off here. In short, Oliver was nervous, but ready to finally start to get this Skrull invasion over with, hoping to find some form of catharsis in the ensuing bloodshed.

Oliver frowned at the noises coming from the room, before exhaling, and noticing that Kwassi was talking to him. Oliver felt bad for what was going on, like it was his fault in a way. He was there when Niah's leg was mangled, and all the superpowers in the world didn't stop it from happening. Maybe if he weren't an emotional wreck at the time, or if he was just better at acting like a regular human in general, he could have prevented this from happening. But instead of expositing his complex feelings on the matter to Kwassi, he shrugged and said, "I'd rather the next time a demon comes after us, I can get rid of it myself, so... trying to pick up on the words to facilitate that." before smiling at him and adding, "And I wanna make sure Niah's okay, she's a part of the team after all, right?"

If there was one thing Oliver hated, it was not knowing what was going to happen next. Not being able to physically intervene and stop things from happening? He was used to that. That was most of his life before he turned out to be the son of an intergalactic space tyrant, but the feeling of knowing that something bad was happening and not knowing where to go next, that was hell. He felt that a bit with the skrull invasion, but he at least had been taking steps to understand and prepare for the coming threat. Here, unless he could become a master of demonology and medicine within the hour, there wasn't much he could do. Or at least, nothing he could do besides waiting and hoping. Turning his head towards Raynor, a small part of him realized that he couldn't remember ever saying anything to a Raynor that wasn't a skrull, or at least, he didn't know when Raynor was replaced, so for all he knew, they'd never spoken, and so he asked,"Soooooo.... They got demons on Asgard?" That felt like a better conversation starter than "Hey, I almost killed your girlfriend and mother to your unborn child while you were gone, neat, huh?" so it was what he went with in the face of having no idea what to say.
