“How do you mean?” enquired a confused Shane
“It’s like all my life I’ve never really felt loved unconditionally. Being my true self with the people I grew up with got me rejected. Then I came here and I met you guys and for the first time I had this opportunity to really find myself, as corny as that sounds. You didn’t judge me or criticise me but that left me questioning. It was like I had to see how far I could push you all to get you to push me away. It was safer to know from the beginning what the conditions were than to let myself get too relaxed. I didn’t bargain for the fact that you would stick by me no matter what.”
“I don’t suppose you’d just accept my word for it from now on and quit with the outrageous behaviour?”
“You know I think it’s finally sinking in. I’ve been thinking, maybe I should pull my script from the studio? I don’t want to do something that makes it impossible to try and rebuild the relationships I’ve been systematically destroying.”
“That seems a bit drastic. We all know what an amazing opportunity for your career this is. I don’t think you have to pull the script. You should talk to Tina though. Maybe you could do some re-writes, talk to everyone, see if there are particular things that they want changed and drop the pretence that the book is anything other than your account of our lives.”
“Do you think that would be enough?”
“You need to learn to trust these women Jenny. They don’t want to destroy you, but this is their lives that you’ve made into public fodder. Their loves, their losses, their heartbreak, their triumphs, that’s why they got so upset with you. By claiming it all as fiction, your own creation you were trivialising their lives, nobody likes that feeling. On the other hand, this opportunity exists now to make a film about the lives of a group of people that is so rarely reflected in the media in any kind of accurate way. If you talk to them, make some changes, take some things out, add some things in, this could be a really great thing not just for you professionally but for all of us.”

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
