Broken Girls with Strange Frames (Ch. 5)
Funny. I could practically hear Bette rolling her eyes. “I have to get off the phone now.” I translated this to mean that I had won that argument. “I’ll call you about dinner.”
“Okay, fine. Bye.”
I, having nothing to do except do research on the article I was going to write about LA’s most ethnic Chinese food places (because I was totally scraping the bottom of the barrel when it came to new ideas for lists), decided an inspection of the new caf (or at least its ‘Closed’ sign) was in order, so I paid my bill and got out of there.
And learned several things:
1. The Planet is going to be, in many ways, just like Parkland in that the coffee will (as the new owner assured me) be very good. It will be different that Parkland in the fact that it is not going to charge me an entire buck more for the next largest size, which totally is only like, a half-centimeter bigger as far as diameter goes.
2. Also awesomely, The Planet plans on changing itself into a club at night, which is great, because one thing about
3. There are going to be tables outside, too. This is cool because Bette once said, “It would be nice if there were some tables outside,” while we were having coffee at
4. I’ve recanted my statement about The Planet being a dumb name for a caf. It’s cool. And better than
5. The new owner of the caf is named Marina Ferrer. She is Italian and extremely, scorchingly hot. I was trying to figure out how to ask for her measurements, but let’s just say she’s hot.
6. But she’s involved with some woman named Francesca Wolff. With two F’s like that. Francesca is apparently very wealthy and very gorgeous, which I only know because
7. But! Francesca is apparently not around like, half the year. So

Oh. My. Goddess.
I love your fic.
You definitely rock and rule! Keep it up, Rachel!
Fun, fun, fun! I so enjoy these two together. This feels like I am getting a glimpse into ‘pre-Bette’. Sort of like her formative years. Or at least before she became the Bette everyone else knows. Alice is killing me in her histrionic righteousness. More, please.
Is it my imagination, or is this getting better with each chapter? And the first was great. I love Alice’s ‘voice’. It’s just dead on. And as for Bette’s characterisation, it’s amazing. It was a really nice touch that she doesn’t like people to be angry with her. It just gives her that touch of vulnerability that makes her so devastating. And her solution of steam-rollering Alice into saying something untrue is just really typical Bette. I say again this is fantastic.
I never could quite see Alice and Bette together…until now!!! Thanks for this ‘most interesting’ glimpse into their past relationship!!
Parallel universe, parallel universe. Intriguing parallel universe.
Is it possible that there’s another group of TLW fans, enjoying this story (instead of the crap-tastic ones of S2)on their pay channels in a parallel universe?
Are our worlds starting to converge?
Is this the ‘good news’ we were told to expect? Evidence for the existence God?
Can we get this one on Showtime, in our lifetimes???
Any physicists in the house???
Einstein’s theory of light? Will you all be gone before this can reach you to read this? Anyone???
WOW damm girl that was a shit load of reading but I’m caught up now. I’m really enjoying this story.
My gods the characterization in this fiction is spot on! Not only that, but you’ve mangaged to add depth that I’m sure Ilene doesn’t even see in these characters or perhaps forgot about with season two. Nice one, I’m dying for more and I’ve only found this series an hour ago! Great story I cannot wait for more. Count me as a die hard fan.
its a great story and i love it u have the characters so dead on and i like seeing this other version of bette its very intriguing (however the hell u spell it) and i cant wait for the next chapter!! it’ll also be very interesting to see how u bring every1 else into the story!!
Ok I am so hooked and this line has me in love: I’m like, a hair-whore. More please lets keep this pace going….*yeah*
Great story, hope you spam the site like mad! :D
