Oliver shifts long enough to add a little more fuel to the fire. "Me, my sister, my mother. My father died five years ago when the boat we were on sank."
A partial lie, but the same one he's been telling for months, to everyone but Diggle. "My stepfather is missing. Has been for almost two months."
It's still strange referring to Walter as his stepfather, and he won't ever do it in the man's presence, but Thea loves him, Moira loves him, and Oliver respects that about him.
