Bitter Endings, Sweet Beginnings: Part Six
“You
know, this started out to be a spectacularly ***** day for me. I wake
up to a phone call from my lawyer saying my ex has decided that after
my Oscar win he needs to sue for palimony, I stepped into actual *****
walking downstairs because my dog has the runs from eating caviar, and
the air conditioning in my personal gym has mysteriously stopped
working. But then,” Veronica smiled largely, leaning back in her seat
and lighting up the cigarette she put into her mouth. “I finally make
it to my lunch meeting with you where I’m offered my very own *****
movie studio as well as complete creative control over all of the
projects I develop there.” Taking a drag of her cigarette, Veronica
drawled, “Hallelujah. There is a lord and all of my ***** suffering
hasn’t been in vain.” Pointing her cigarette at Helena who once again
felt herself becoming timid in the presence of this confident and
boisterous woman, Veronica declared, “You’re my favorite goddamn person
on the planet, Helena Peabody. I feel like building a ***** gold
statue of you. We can stick it in front of the studio. Classy, huh?”
“That’s quite all right,” said Helena almost nervously, giving a small
smile. “I’m sure I don’t require anything of the sort. I’m simply
pleased you’ve decided to accept my offer. I truly think that together
we can make this studio a magnificent success story for both your
career in film and my charitable works with the Foundation.” Pausing to
study Veronica carefully, Helena lost her anxiety, as she always did,
the moment she began talking about her charitable works. “You do
understand that part of your contract will state that thirty percent of
the net profits brought in through ticket sales, merchandising, and dvd
production will go to The Peabody Foundation?” Helena looked at
Veronica with utmost solemnity and stated, “I’m afraid this isn’t
something I can barter over and it is, as you say, what seals the deal.
The reason I purchased this studio was to gather greater funds to
expand my works at the Foundation. I have not the slightest desire to
make movies or to thrust myself into the spotlight. Running the studio
shall be something I will leave entirely up to you, Ms. Bloom.”
“You just want to sign the checks and pick them up,” said Veronica
knowingly, taking another drag of her cigarette and matching Helena’s
observant gaze. “You keep making me like you more and more, Peabody.
And that,” she drawled, lifting an eyebrow and taking another long drag
as she smirked. “Is a goddamn miracle.” Rubbing out the cigarette,
Veronica said in offhand tones, “I won’t say I’m happy about thirty
percent of the profits disappearing to feed the manic depressive
orphans or whatever the ***** you do but all the same, it’s not a deal
breaker. What you’re offering me here is almost ***** unprecedented
and I’m sure as ***** not going to turn it down.” Lifting her gaze,
Veronica leaned back in her chair and drawled, “Besides, it’s going to
make for ***** brilliant press. There’s no way we won’t guilt trip
the sad ***** teeming masses into seeing our movies when they find out
where the money is going.”

Great job on the portrayal of Veronica..I could soo see and hear her…it was kinda eerie..lol, but none the less great. You and sulkygeek have some kind of helacious conspiracy…you write them soo well and it just makes me like them a little more every time. Like how you put Dana into play, checking up on Alice and it’s obvious she still loves her. Ohh…i’m soo torn…the danish or helacious in this story is soo hard to choose
This was my favourite chapter of this story so far – perhaps because we got close to Helacious. But it might also have been that I can’t think of much better than going to an Augusten Burroughs reading at Book Soup with Gabby!
Wow i love this chapter, and the story overall so far, hope you post soon!!!
Dreiser – choppin broccoli!! I’m telling you I sat in history class my junior yr of high school the monday morning after that episode of sat night live singing it with my friends!!! God im old.
Veronica was so dead on, i could actually actually cameron manheims voice.
alice and helena? unbelievable cuteness. “Thank you for being what everyone else is not.” I actaully swooned!!!
great update – loved it. it was so good, i couldnt come up with a philosophical reference good enough!
OMG..’Im Luvin it’ I JUS..I LUV YOU 4 WRITING THIS STRY..the way u write – 2 cute..I like that you wrote Dana out 2 b a stocker as Alice had once been an obsessive stocker of Dana&Lara fiasco..GREAT chapter..Alice&Helena’z relationship seemz 2 be progressing niceli – closer&closer 2gether..’Young Luv’..I always look forward 2 reading your wrk..thnx 4 writing, dun stop..PLEASE mst Post so0N..
*melts* Full credit to your writing abilities!!!! I love the cuteness and dorkiness of Alice and Helena. It’s beautiful
Dana is by no means a stalker in this story. She’s simply still in love with Alice and wants to make sure she’s happy.
I have to say that the danish fan in me it’s hurt when I read the Dana’s part but you made unbelievable loving the helacious part too, so I can’t stop reading your work. Thanks. oh and I love Veronica too :P
I like Helene in this, Alice bring out the true person. she and Helene are very dorlie and very loveablem also. Wish she could show this side to others. thanks for a remarlablr chspter.
Oh dreiser, thank you for this latest chapter. The choppin’ broccoli song in the supermarket had me laughing my ass off. I love how close they continue to get and just hate knowing that it will be at least another two weeks before you pick up where you left off with your evilly planned ‘to be continued’. Your such a tease!
Though i am not a big shane or carmen fan, they were both very cute as you said they would be (i think i can handle things like that in small doses). But the best bit about that whole scene was Gabby fucking Deveaux! I can’t express how much i love Gabby. She’s a complete bitch, she’s got a wicked/sarcastic sense of humor, she’s fiercly intelligent, she uses words to cut people down in just nano-seconds… and she does it all with her ‘whatev’ blase attitude. Call me sick, but there’s just something about all that that makes her so damn hot. And its just so adorable that little ol’jenny gets her all embarrassed with her smiling pixie ways. I do hope that you intend to have more Gabby/Jenny flirting going on.
I like dana more in your story than in sulky’s… which is not to say that i think one of you is a better writer than the other, i enjoy you equally ;). But as i was saying, i do like dana better in this because she isn’t all stalkerish and super clingy… and she acknowleges helena being good for alice, and even sees that she is not what one would automatically assume she is.
Those are my comments for now, love your work.
woot that was really good… Hope you’ll come around and write some more of that…;)
