"Oh shit", Alice sighed, wiping her tears after the laughter died down. Dana sat next to Alice on the couch. They both looked at the manilla envelope sitting on the table.
"What are you gonna do Alice?", Dana asked, pointing her chin ahead at the package. Alice exhaled loudly and drank again from her bottle. She avoided the question for the moment. "I can’t believe it was you. All this time. Do you know how many goddamned times I turned this place upside down looking for that stupid fucking coin?"
Dana grinned. "Of course I do. Don’t you remember? I helped you look at least three times."
"Some help. Thanks a lot. You must’ve laughed your ass off at me."
"Well", Dana said glancing sideways. "Not in front of you, obviously. I usually waited until I got into my car." Dana saw the smile on Alice’s face and knew that she was forgiven. One of the perks of being the dearly departed is that you can get away with just about anything.
"I have to hand it to you, Dana. That was a pretty good one. Good prank. You really got me. Well done."
"I learned from the best, Al."
"Oh, don’t even. It’s too late for ass-kissing now." Alice grinned as she stood up and walked straight ahead. She reached the table and stood over it. Just staring at the envelope. She’d been unable to touch it since bringing it into her home.
"Come on, Al. Open it."
Alice reached out tremulously. She felt the rough thick paper in her hands. She held her breath and pried it open. She upended the envelope and listened to the soft ding as the coin fell out and onto her table. It was the shiniest coin she’d ever seen in her life. It had all the luster that was lacking from Bette’s coin. It dinged more beautifully than Shane’s coin. The ridges were crisper than on Tina’s coin. This coin would surely be the envy of everybody. If they ever saw it.
She stared at it. Not yet daring to touch it. "Jesus Christ, Alice!! Pick it up. You know you want to."
Alice wiped a tear away from her cheek as she reached for the coin. The coin was cool to the touch. She felt like such a traitor. Accepting this coin was taking away Dana’s triumph. Using this coin would be a big old ‘Fuck you’ to her. Her hand closed around it. The heat of her palm quickly warmed the coin. She squeezed it tightly and closed her eyes. Trying to capture the mental picture of how it felt. It’s ridges. It’s size. Dana smiled. "Come on, Al. One more thing. You know you have to do it. At least once."

I hate coming up with sumaries myself Red no worries.Glad to see another chapter.I’m glad the family is going to support them.
Loved the Alice/Dana bit. :) That still cracks me up that Dana was the one who took Alice’s coin. xD Jenkins is an old codger. =P
I really enjoyed the visitation too. Angie mimicking Mama B was, needless to say, impossibly cute. I hope you’re spared the gov’t shutdown, but if it happens at least there’s a silver lining for your faithful readers.
This story has so many sides to it. Very well written. Thanks for letting the gang step up. Loved little Angie mimicking Bette…too cute. PPS
Great chapter! Loved it all. PPS!!
what is all that whining about Red? The chapter was great and, as you predicted, I loved the Alice/Dana bit. so now you’ve set the table here, time to serve the meal and get everyone trashed! We’ll be waiting…PPS
What a lovely Sunday night treat, red. Loved the chapter… Alice/Dana and Bette/Angie…too cute. I only wish the show was written as cleverly as your fanfic. It’s hard reading about what was done to Cora at the hands of her father. He needs to be fed his own testicles. Sorry to hear of your possible lay-off. Will keep good thoughts for you.
Kit needs Power of Attorney in case something happens to B & T to gain custody of Angie. Intriguing and exciting.
I’m glad B&T realize how lucky they are and are going to do thing thing to help Faye with the full support of their family. Ah, Dana… Al definitely made the right choice. And Angie is too cute! Thanks for the chapter, red. (And I hope everything stays okay for you job-wise.)
Another great chapter. It had so much good stuff–the framily is back, B&T great interactions, AND (ruffles and flourishes) Angelica!!!! The cutest baby evah.
I keep falling many days behind. Not sure what is happening but always behind. First of all I love the dialog between Faye and B&T. Too bad it all started off the way that it did. The extended family will be good to work with to help find Cora. I miss Dana and wish that she would continue to visit Alice.
Good that the gang with them on this!
Glad you brought Dana in for so comic relief. It nice to see the framily ready to support the girls. Looking forward this adventure.
great chapter Red. the baby imitating Bette was priceless, they love each other so much it isjust wonderful to see the little family togerther. Happy to see that the extended family will help in whatever way necessary. Hopefully they can find Cora before Faye succumbs to the disease and they can say goodbye and let Faye tell her daughter how sorry that nothing was done and that she could not help it. this is some story Red. Post when you can. Don’t worry about the sumaries Red, they wil take care of themselves.
