Bitter Endings, Sweet Beginnings: Part Six
“But that’s not happening with you in the charge, is it?” said Veronica, smirking and taking another drag of her cigarette.
“No, it isn’t,” said Helena, appearing to stiffen at
Veronica’s words. “I’ve chosen to restore the Peabody Foundation to its
original and intended purpose of funding social service programs which
focus their efforts on aiding those most in need.” She looked at
Veronica with a hard gaze, her blue eyes glittering and said, “And if
that is not to your liking we should rethink our involvement,
Ms. Bloom.”
“Call me Veronica and it’s not to my disliking or liking. In fact, I
don’t really give a good *****. I was just asking you a question,” said
Veronica dryly. Rubbing out her cigarette, she peered at Helena and
smiled slowly. “I couldn’t care less where you decide to send your own
money. Besides,” Veronica shrugged and sat back in her seat. “I hate
those ***** intellectual art snobs who think what they do is so
goddamn significant when only fifty people see their scribbles on a
napkin but over a million people see my movie and I’m a ***** sell
out. So ***** them and their ***** funding,” drawled Veronica,
smirking. “I hate those little *****. Especially the ones who think
making a sculpture out of condoms, tin foil, and leaves makes them
magically qualified to direct a movie.”
“That would become tiresome,” said Helena, chuckling softly and finding herself amused despite Veronica’s course language.
“Tiresome? It ***** drives me nuts that people who don’t know *****
want to waste my money on their piddling ***** artistic visions that
won’t gain any goddamn profit or fake awards that make me look good,”
Veronica said, snorting loudly in disgust. Pointing at Helena and
nodding her head, Veronica announced, “But it’ll be different with you
and me. No untalented newbies or old hacks. Just the best of
the ***** best.”
“Music to my ears,” murmured Helena, lifting her glass in a toast which Veronica met, clinking their glasses together.
“So,” Veronica said slowly, a smile spreading across her features and
curiosity apparent in her gaze. “How did you get my number, Peabody?
I’ve been ***** dying to ask you since we don’t exactly travel in the
same circles.” Veronica wore an openly curious but somehow droll
expression on her features as she said this.
“You briefly employed the services of Shane McCutcheon, did you not?” said Helena politely, beginning her explanation.

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…;)
