The Truth We Build On Our Lies by Sandrine Shaw
In the beginning of this when we are learning of all the different legends about Monroe, I love the way Bass has grown into this mythic beast. Pretty sure he would love it as well. There is a lyric quality to this story that I love. Sandrine’s choice to weave the idea of lies and truth within this story is beautiful. After Charlie & Bass truly become the couple they’ve pretended to be…Miles banging doors and sharpening his knives cracks me up, and of course Bass comforting Charlie at his grave broke my heart. For such a short story, this one packs an emotional punch. It’s sad and lovely and near perfect in my opinion. The Road From Willoughby by ThreeMagpies Love the backstory here and the way Magpie really fleshed out the little bit of story we got from the comics. Miles’ wife and son come to life a bit here. It’s sad when Miles dies but I love the idea of Charlie sharing her stories with the little brother and the way she visits with Miles. And the ending is lovely with the iconic “You came back”. Epilogue by LemonSupreme Oh this brings back memories. Good ones. It took me weeks to make all the pictures. It was fun but tedious. The story was fun too. My goal was to keep it light and funny because the real comic had been so dark and angsty. Folks were already kind of down about things so I wanted to cheer folks up. I also wanted to bring in the Charloe but also keep the personalities authentic. I'm not totally sure I was sucessful but generally this did get some good feedback. I remember being torn. On one hand I wanted renewal!! But my fear of Bachel was so intense, in some ways, cancellation brought relief. The comics brought closure – or what I like to think of as “Closure, part one”. All the different fix it fics were part two. Note to self: I need to print out a copy sometime I guess. At any time Photobucket could remove all my images from Archive. EDIT: MD - If you want, we could pick a story just in case Ice doesn't get one for us in time. There are a ton of stories. Surely we could find one to talk about. Just a thought. |

Glad to hear it. I'm still working on my Halloween story from last year, hopefully it'll be ready by this October. I'd hoped it would be a nice, short little one-shot, but noooo, it got away from me. As for your comic book images, Lemon, if you have a OneDrive account (like through Office 365), they'll do hotlinking (like Photobucket). It takes a few more mouse clicks than PB, but it works nicely and you wouldn't have to worry about losing them. As for stories for next time, I honestly don't know which ones we've read and which ones we haven't (I'm afraid I don't keep track), so you guys can pick a story. |

Off topic - I'm addicted to Riverdale. Catching up on S2 and Blanchard is in the episode I'm watching right now. He's skinny instead of chunky but it's him. I looked it up on IMDB to verify. haha |

I can't picture M.C. Gainey thin. What's Riverdale about? I've actually been watching a lot of old series from my childhood lately. Can't wait until Thursday when I can finally see Alice again from the beginning (have to wait b/c it's on a TV channel). |

Riverdale is the Archie Comics turned into a CW television series. It's sexy and dark ish - very CW. If you enjoy high school shows at all, I think you'd like it. High production value and it's super popular so won't get cancelled anytime soon. Lots of actors you'd know. Skeet Ulrich, Luke Perry and Molly Ringwald all play parents of some of the gang. Veronica's dad is the guy who's married to Kelly Ripa in real life. Betty's mom was on twin peaks. Anyway, it's really addictive. Oh, and Archie is hot. So there's that. |
