Sinkers and Suds and Talks of Old Loves

I love Sodapop just as much as the next girl, but I'm seriously tired of everyone trying to save him by having her make a mistake, or having someone else make a mistake by forcing her. (No offense to the writers who have done that—I love your stuff.) But the two of them ending up back together seems slightly unlikely to me. She did what she did for a reason. Sandy and Soda had their good times, but their good times ended, and she was a bitch. He's not going to wallow in self pity for his entire life, dig?

Read it, please. :)

That's slightly ridiculous...

I've come home two hours late past curfew and I've gotten nothing but a mumbled, "you're home."

Well, welcome back, anyway...

Hey, HEY. Chapter Thirteen is up.

I'd really appreciate some feedback on how I'm portraying Sandy and Evie. They're not the bitchasshoe!Evie&Sandy that the fandom is so prone to and I'd really like to know what you all think about it.

I have enjoyed your work on the Sinkers And Suds thing. You have done a fantastic job.... and I agree... Soda and Sandy are a thing of the past. Yeah.. we boo hoo when the "love of our lives" get's their shoes on and heads out of town... heck, I left my first fiance three days before the wedding... never regretted it either (he had issues), so life does go on. As long as he doesn't die in nam, I'm cool with it! Calla
May all those who seek happiness find it, and if the door to that happiness is shut, may you find an open window to climb through.

I love this one! It's so Princess Bride.
I have left borderline obsession and I am driving away in my blue 66' mustang, laughing at the borderline for being so far away. -Me about The Outsiders (shoot, Randy got a new car.)

"Remembering. Remembering a handsome, dark boy with a reckless grin and a hot temper. A tough, tow-headed boy with a cigarette in his mouth and a bitter grin on his hard face. Remembering-and this time it didn't hurt-a quiet, defeated-looking sixteen year old whose hair needed cutting badly and who had black eyes with a frightened expression on them. One week had taken them all."
