“Morning” Jenny mumbled, her hands wrapped around her first cup of coffee of the day.
She knew though that no response would be forthcoming until her companion had caught up with her in the coffee consumption stakes.
Shane poured herself a coffee and ran her fingers through her messy hair. She settled herself at the kitchen table opposite Jenny and they sat in companionable silence letting the caffeine do its work. They each perused sections of the paper until Shane found her cup empty once again and gave the signal that she was ready to participate in the day.
“Refill?” she asked as she gestured to Jenny with the pot of coffee.
“Please” replied the writer holding out her cup.
“You’re still coming tonight right?” enquired Shane
“Yeah I’ll be there, it’ll be weird, being in Bette’s house again with everyone there too don’t you think?”
“Everything about tonight is going to be weird, Bette and Tina being in that house together, reading Dana’s letter, seeing Carmen again…”
“Carmen’s coming?”
“Uh huh”
The casual response earned the hairdresser an eyebrow raise from her companion.
“What?”
“Oh come on. You’re not going to tell me that it’s no big deal that Carmen is coming tonight.”
“It’s not like I haven’t already spoken to her this week. It’ll be weird having her there, but it’s right that she should be there.”
“So you two are all forgiven and forgotten?”
“I wouldn’t say forgotten. I wouldn’t expect that, I wouldn’t even want that but I felt the other day in The Planet when we talked that there was the beginning of forgiveness. I even think that maybe I’m starting to forgive myself.”
“It’s about time. You’ve been pretty miserable to live with since then.”
“Oh and it’s just been a barrel of laughs living with you” Shane shot back
“I’ve been pretty awful right?” Jenny offered her tone suddenly more serious.
“It’s been a hard time for you. I get that, somewhere in the middle of it though you lost sight of the fact that the people around you are your friends not your enemies. “
“I’ve been thinking about it a lot since reading the letter that Dana wrote to me. I think in a weird way I was testing you all”

great, great update…the interactions in all three parts were spot on…glad that Jenny is realizing what and why she has done the things she did.Great advice from Shane.
Crap! I’m late on this. But you know I love it. This was a very important chapter and really showed how everyone is communicating honesty and openly with each other. I think that’s something a lot of them rarely do on the show, a lot of them seem to be hiding something a lot of the time. I like that in this one, there’s none of that. If something comes up, they address it. I tghink that’s very realistic for those who watched what Dana went through. Tasha’s just that way naturally, but I think the others would have realized that you have to be honest with people and communicate instead of hiding things all the time. I’m really babbling, sorry! This was great, and I have a crush on your version of Tasha. Would you consider cloning? MaGoose was supposed to clone me a Dana, but she got lost in the mail.
Thank you for your shoutout. I am rather stubborn and proud to be a member of the D.O.C. (Danish Obsession Coalition). I am glad you gave Jenny an opportunity to explain herself. Never really cared for her on the show but in this story, she seemed more human. As for the rest, the above comments pretty much covered everything. Thank you wonderingaloud, I will patiently wait for the last letter. Will I need to a box of kleenex for it? :-)
I missed your story and was so excited to see the new chapter! I am glad that the gang is getting together and having “Dana” time. Wonderful chapter.
great update – missed your postings – can’t wait to see all the girls together again – don’t leave it too long.
great chap as always, i love it even if carmen was M.I.A…i’ll give u more puppy eyea if i’ve to, for a least 5 sharmen lines (happy ones please??*puppy eyes*) ur an excellent writter
I missed your posts. Thanks. I agree with hail_danalice though, no matter how I like Tasha, and I heart her for real, for me, Dana would always be the love of Alice’s life and vice versa. Heehee but now that she’s gone, if Al is happy ten ya know.. I’m good. And I’m also glad to know that B n T are still trying to give it another go. Thanks for updating again, missed you.
Great Update! Alice needs to let go of dana to fully love tasha. it’s great that bette and tinare trying again. would love to see jenny talk to tina and script rewrites with her input, working as a team… love it :)
Jenny needs to do some reaching out, and a rewrite is a good way to start. I don’t think that anyone is going to pressure Bette and Tina when they hear that they’re dating again. Al is moving at just the right speed with Tasha. I’m sorry that this is the penultimate post, wa… we just got you back! Thanks you for updating.
So excited to see a new chapter from you! Love the Jenny/Shane interaction and Jenny making some sense of why she did the things she did. Also that she needs to realize these are her friends. The Bette and Tina talk was great. I like how they are communicating — especially Bette. Old Bette probably wouldn’t have even asked Tina’s opinion on telling their friends. That is sweet of Tasha to want to be there for Alice. And I like the humor of sleeping with wiggling Alice being child abuse. Loved that the chapter ended with a Happy!Alice. I know the evening will be rough of her. This was an excellent chapter! Thank you so much, wonderingaloud!!
This will be harder on Alice than anyone else. Tasha will stand in traerve if she is needed Everyone has chabge so much, this will be a happy ending story thanks
