    Going Home Again

    I'm glad to hear feedback from anyone! I would hate to trigger or offend any of you. If there is anything more I can do to give fair warnings about sensitive topics, please let me know:)

    Going Home Again

    Full chapter posted from beginning, same trigger warnings apply. Tell me if the flashback mid-chapter is jarring. I'm not sure I like it, but I want some background on Claire and Joe's history before I feed him to the wolves. I could start with the flashback and put the other two scenes...

    Going Home Again

    That's why I post in journals and marked this story for adult themes. I'm trying to keep things as subtle as possible. I don't think this chapter is more violent than some of what I've discussed so far, but I certainly don't plan on being gratuitous with trauma. If anyone ever feels like this...

    Going Home Again

    Half chapter, rest to come: Trigger warning for sexual harassment and brief implied references to various crimes. Nothing is described in any detail. Part I Claire was standing now, thanks to her freed ankles, attempting to regain some dignity and play the offense. Lee laughed maniacally as...

    Both characters are so emotionally stilted and suspicious, so I like the idea of them dancing around the truth because a confirmation feels too intimate but debunking a relationship feels too heartbreaking. So keeping things in limbo is more comfortable for both. I think I’ll end it with...

    Sorry to be MIA for so long. I’m working on chapters. As I worked on the ending I realized I don’t necessarily want to confirm a biological connection between Claire and Carmen. We obviously never get canonical confirmation that she’s related to Avalon, so technically test would need to be...

    I feel the same way, I got Mable as a kitten. Her urn is a lovey wood box with her name but I often end up carrying the urn around with me and even falling asleep holding it, so I might look for something without such sharp edges. Although maybe I shouldn’t be enabling myself…

    @Julie Justice I am so so very sorry for your loss! I know how much you must be hurting. I know I'm still so deep in grief and it feels like the whole world is just moving around me. I have my Mable's ashes too and I'm so glad I sprung for the expense. I couldn't stand the thought of not...

    Going Home Again

    Chapter XIV “Old Habits” When Claire woke for the second time, she was in a smaller room, untied, lying atop a crumpled tarp that did nothing to protect her from the unforgiving chill of the floor. Her throat and lungs were sore and strained. How much time had passed, she wondered? Claire...

    It's been one week since we had to help my sweet cat Mable leave this world after 16.5 years. I've never known grief like this.

    Going Home Again

    Chapter XIII "Sinker" [Content warning for potentially triggering content and strong language as this chapter incorporates the Lee Jordan segment posted earlier in this thread, with a few edits] Claire left her father’s room and strode down the hallway. The hiss of the overhead lights...

    That makes me so happy, I’d kill to hear him talk about what the behind the scenes of the show was like.
