    Author Notes:

    Tina today.

     

    I snarled.

     

    You bastard.  Don’t you dare insinuate that because I’m pissed – justifiably pissed, I might add – over some insensitive remark you made, or even more importantly how you might actually feel, about my daughter – that it’s because I’m hormonal.

     

    He was shaking his head, he looked confused, he looked sad.  I have to say it, he looked stupid.  He’s not a stupid man, but he looked stupid right then.  He put his arms around me.

     

    Look honey, I’m sorry.  I love Angelica, you know that.  I love her curly hair, I love her big smile, I love her dark skin and I love her cause she’s yours.  And because she’ll be mine someday too.  You know I don’t even mind that she looks like Bette, I’ve never minded that.

     

    How could one man be so utterly imbecilic?  And in one ten-minute stretch of time?  I pushed him away, as hard as I could.  He stumbled backwards a little, then righted himself.  I saw a flash of anger in his eyes, I saw him force it to pass away just as quickly.

     

    You don’t mind?

     

    My voice was shaking.  With rage, with the fury you feel in reaction to the injustice of someone else’s stupidity, to their ignorance.  As if that ignorance was intended, as if it could be helped.

     

    You don’t mind that she looks like Bette?!  How fucking dare you!  What say did you have in who or what she looked like?  She’s my daughter, she was – she was

     

    Now it was my turn to stumble.  My voice, still harsh and high, was now somewhat strangled.

     

    She was Bette’s daughter.  Isn’t that what you were going to say, Tina?  She was Bette’s daughter — until I came along?  Until I came along and messed things up? Only things were pretty messed up by the time I got there, weren’t they Tina?

     

    For one of the first times I remember, he was angry.  He was also speaking the truth, at least some of it, and as such, I didn’t care to hear it.  I stalked out of the room.  I peeked in and Angel was sleeping, blissfully unaware.  Mikey was at his mom’s.  I slammed the bedroom door.

    2. Interesting. Tina is still triflin, I see. Poor Henry got sucked into her shit. When will tIna relaize that until she deals with her issues, she won’t be happy. I am glad she is miserable. I hope Bette is happy in this story. Please post soon.

    3. Wow. I am in awe of your way with words making them invoke the feelings they people will feel when they read this. Tina just seems very angry, huh? Sad to see this, but not surprised if this is how the show will go! Thanks Kid, for this. Maybe you’ll want to repost your stories again..

    4. Well hello there…no road kill this time!!! Hey really glad to see your back as I have seen you around the comments..you write great hard to read/love stories that say a whole lot and regardless of the topic it’s a pleasure to see you posting again, I’d even welcome back your original pot sturring thought provoking, way better than S3 tear jearker..so pls if possible give it another go and start up. As hard as it is to read you write so well you can’t help but admire your honesty!!! good to see you again!!!

    5. *deep sigh* God I have missed you this board has seriosuly been lacking talent the last few months. Talent is findable but it’s hard work…Love to read that you still have it whatever that it is. Glad you feel inspired to write again cause I am all ready to read.

    7. Sorry lastkid, fresh out of tomatos. I don’t know if we speak of someone in common, but someone I appreciate recently told me of your work (that had largely disppeared). I read what little is left under your name. Glad you’re back with a new round of chapters that I can see as they arrive. Looking forward to your next post. Gee, that Tina seriously needs to evolve.

    8. Wow ~ it’s great to see you back. Tina is an angry, angry woman. You really think this is how the show will go? Man, I hope not. Anyway, maybe you’ll repost your other stories again sometime…we really miss your writing here.

    9. I know its probably very mean and vindictive of me but I’m glad Tina is unhappy and bitter and still angry. I’m absolutely gleeful that she is taking it out on Henry now.

    10. HEY KID! So good to read from you again. I second the vote to repost your past stories. I’d love to read them again! I am interested to see the direction of this story. THANKS!

    11. This Tina is like the Tina in season 3- unfeeling, compassion,or love, who still loves Bette but is so full of anger and self-hate. This the 1st story I have read by you and its awesome. Looking fwd to another post!

    12. Hurray!!! Lastkid is back!!!! Hey Last..so good to see you!!!! This is of course so well written, but I think Tina’s feelings have gotten enough airtime, especially with Tina. She has become totally oblivious to the reality that there is more to existence than her feelings, that other people have feelings and needs as well. What she is doing to Bette is just driving me off the deep end. I really am glad to see you back, Last, I always enjoy reading your posts on other fics, and hope to hear from you here again soon.

    13. God, I can’t believe Tina would fuck up like this. She married him! Ewww…talk about closing off your options! I am looking forward to seeing where this goes. Great Work!

    14. Like the others, I am so glad to see you’ve returned. God..you can write, girl. Your choice of words, your phrasing, descriptions are unequalled. Here’s one of my favorite selections…”About that he treads lightly, too lightly sometimes, in a way that makes me feel foreign — like a foreigner. As if this straight marriage, complete with its neat boxy home in the Valley, its dark gray Lexus SUV, its wildly expensive childcare and its occasional, but always convivial, neighborhood get-together – as if they’re such outlandish ideas to me, outlandish but wondrous, the way you hear immigrants describe our grocery stores, their eyes moist with the splendid grossness of 25 overflowing aisles, their voices hungry with greedy astonishment.” I am not foreign born but your description is so on point…even our supermarkets are extravagant, excessive but wondrous certainly compared to other nations. I hope you’ve found your muse or whatever gets you writing and please continue gifting us with your talent. I can literally taste Tina’s pain. She is just unhappy. I’ve always thought that Tina has a small problem with Angelica. Angie just reminds her of Bette and Angie’s “otherness”. Tina loves her but may resent her to some degree. If she has a child with Henry, I fear Angie will be ignored.

    17. I had to laugh at Chase’s comment, because I too was glad to see Tina take her wrath out on someone else other than Bette. And, I know that Henry has feelings, and he loves Tina, but he is still the man who fucked Tina up against the door to the bedroom that belonged to the woman that Tina had admitted to still loving. That says a lot about him as a person in my opinion. It also says a lot about Tina. Lastkid, you are without a doubt one of the very best this site has to offer. Your writing reaches out and truly grabs the reader, pulling us through our computer screen into your world. I too hope that you choose to repost your previous story. It was worthy of several awards. Thank you.

    18. I was looking for something of substance to read and you reappeared. Welcome back. I have no tomatoes, only appreciation. Once again, I’m ready to follow wherever you lead even if I have to do yoga afterwards to recover. Please continue and consider reposting your previous stories.

    19. Geez funny how jumping into a new relationship after one ends badly doesn’t seem to work out, even thought for Tina that seems to be a trend. Helena, henry hmm whats with the Hs? Hope to see more.

    20. hehehehe, seeing all these people and their euphoria about having you back here makes me feel reaaaaaaaaally good, you know? Because that means that I’m not the only one being totally caught up in and drawn to your stories. Or it means that everyone around is as crazy as me. I can live with both of that ;) I can tell from these comments that some people missed your stories and many more missed you. Sooo…

    21. i guess tina thought when she broke up with bette and took angelica away everything was going to be right not.b,t have unfinished business and until that is resolved her life with henry will be one big mess.henry eyes were’ntopen wide enough when tina told him she stii loves bette. what tina did to bette after angelica was born was hurtful,i belive what goes around comes around tina should have walked away and not hurt her.and how do u let a man adopt your daughter when u and bette had her together thats where t is wrong and dont get in sympathy from me i just hope s3 is a dream and tina wakes up from her coma so b,t can finish raising their daughter not henry.

    22. Staggeringly accurate…look forward to the story you have for us. Always so well done. I cannot see B&T as anything but doomed now. Too toxic, too much painful baggage. Bette will have found comfort with another.(I predict for Sn#4Dana’s replacement character.) But perhaps in your wonderfully stylistic way you can fill us in on how Tina allowed herself to make and live this irreconcilable mistake.. As she was originally attractive in spirit and endearing.

    23. Finally, hey last so glad your’e back and what a way to return, i agree with all the above Tian does have a lot of resentment and anger but guys did we not forget what actually happened to cause this i mean dnt get me wrong im another one who has forgotten or forgiven her mistakes and i think most of us understand her more now and have developed a greater liking to her it just concerns how easily everyone is willingy seeming to write Tina off so easily for what she is doing yeah it is totally shitty but shes had to deal with a hell of a lot, maybe we just need to take a step back and try and understand her a bit more im hoping as always maybe you’ll help us with that last as always u enlighten us to all posibilties for their current actions in other words save T or whatever just keep writing and post soon wohhhoooo

    25. whooops in refernce to who we have forgiven and now inderstand more that would be bette forgot to mention that little tid bit ok gonna do happy dance now ur back last

    26. This is an excellent story. One of the few who has not taken the spin that tina’s hormone made her act this way. Tina is totally selfish and uncaring at this point . I agree with azmama tina loves angelica but also resent her otherness. Maybe if she has a baby that looks like them she will be willing to allow bette back into angelica’s life.

    27. LK, I ALMOST FAINTED WHEN I SAW YOUR NAME UNDER THIS STORY. WELCOME BACK. YOU AND A FEW OTHER WRITER IS WHY I LOVE THIS BOARD. You are one powerful writer. When I read your stories it like I can truly see the words you are writing.I check everyday looking for a post from you. TODAY IS A BLESS DAY FOR ME.

    28. Ok. This is an optinum time for this story because Tina is not the beloved character she once was. Maybe it’s also a good time to think about (just think about) reposting and finishing “Time.” There are not lots of comments here asking you to bring ’em back together asap, so maybe people are ready for your previous story.

    29. Henry is getting a little bit of what Bette got for 2 years. His tie,and that is why you are wearing a tie to see Shane and Alice. He better get use to it ,its going to get worse You have made my day. Thanks

    30. I love it. Although I have to say ‘poor Henry’, I love it. Although Tina’s quite bitchy now, I love it. Although there’s no Bette yet, I love it. Although I have no idea if they would go back together in this story, I love it.

    31. Oh, Lastkid. I miss you, I miss you, I miss you. Simply because you CAN write. Even if there are no happy endings, it doesn’t change the fact that you CAN write. You can go break my heart over and over with all the sad stories you write, and I’d still read you. Because you CAN write. Welcome back. Please write some more. Cheers!

    33. lastkid this is great. The writing evokes a lot of intensity and desire to see the next steps in the plot. Looks like Henry’s getting a taste of what Bette felt like! Tina’s haunted by what she left behind and it’s amazing to see her unwravel the way that you write it.

    35. So glad to see you back! Do you know how much I’ve missed your stories?Well, it’s nice to see Tina has made an even bigger mess of her life than I thought possible. She was so adament about therapy while she and Bette were together, yet, where’s the shrink when she’s hating her husband and ignoring her daughter? Please post again soon – anything – just don’t go away anymore! Welcome back!

    37. Welcome back Kid, you have put the spring back in my cyberstep! LOST, what a great L word – especially for Tina. She truly has lost…her ability to reason, her way and her self-respect. She is deluding herself if she believes that she doesn’t have anywhere to return to because she does – she needs to return to herself. *** I liked the reference to dry heat and the temperature in general, so indicative of Tina’s mood. How everything becomes brittle when it is arid, that even the innocuous voice of a lover sounds like glass shattering when it gets too hot – and for Tina, the heat in this case is stifling. ***Tina needs to be in control, and when Henry caves it upsets Tina because he has effectively pulled the rug out from under her. It’s all about Tina. She won’t say she’s sorry, she thinks that he’s stupid, she thinks that he’s weak. She won’t look at her own culpability because that would mean that she was no longer in control of everything. ***Poor Henry, he can’t say anything right. What he doesn’t realize is that he is has insulted the very thing that rattles Tina the most – her identity, Angel’s identity and subsequently her connection to Bette, no matter how distant or dysfunctional. A showdown with Tina was evitable if he would have engaged in persiflage instead of becoming territorial in regard to Angelica or if he had stayed away from the incendiary topics about PMS and Bette. *** THINGS weren’t messed up by the time Henry came along, TINA was messed up. Tina’s issues with Bette were symptoms of something much larger, Henry was the Band Aid that Tina used to make it go a way. *** I loved the way you had Tina smoothing out the wrinkles of the duvet, as if she were trying to soften the uneveness in her own life. Your use of symbolism is remarkable – Tina picking at the comforter until something that was beautiful and stable came unraveled…much like she did with Bette. Is this history repeating itself? ***The vaunted lifestyle that Tina so desperately wanted now seems like an uncomfortable fit, an awkward skin. She is struggling to fit into her new world. Her feeling like a stranger in a strange land is similar to the old adage that “You can never go home again”. Tina’s questioning of her born again heterosexuality is the true litmus test of her actions. ***Anger is comforting to Tina, she wraps herself up in it like a familiar blanket. Her anger and indignation allows her to place blame on anyone other than herself, it allows her to maintain control. ***Tina will push and irritate Henry until he makes a decision or to makes a stand because Tina will not make those decisions herself. She wants someone to blame if she or her falls apart. ***Subconsciously it seems as if Tina is questioning all of her choices, wondering if she jumped out of the fat and into the fire or perhaps is just chasing an elusive ideal that she cannot seem to manifest. ***Loved the pier comment, I got the impression that is what Tina would have liked to have done to Henry for the comment he made about her tie. ***Again, I loved the way you used the radio announcers as Tina’s subconscious voice. Having them comment on Tina’s life choices by using the drowning man as a metaphor for the decisions we all make in life that either keep our heads above water – or cause us to sink helplessly beneath the surface was brilliant. ***I am intrigued to see how Tina got here and where she is going, what is going through her head and why she is questioning the very life that she voluntarily sought out for herself and Angelica. ***Nice to have you back, and a stellar first chapter!

    40. Kid, so glad your back. Looks like a great start to another story from you. I can so see this happening if things keep heading in the direction there going. Tina will be happy for awhile until she realizes how much of her life she’s lost, and I don’t just mean Bette. Come on, if she sticks with Henry whether they get married or not, the gang is gonna pull away ya just can’t mix. Lets hope Bette can find some happiness cos boy does she deserve it.

    41. Well, whaddya know – wonders never cease. I’m throwing a tomato up in the air as I type. Oops, dropped it ;) Once again, I’m smiling at the headache you’ve given me from reading your captivating. I wish I could bring myself to feel sorry for Tina, but I can’t. This was so sensational, yet so sad. So authentically you. Uh…how’s Courtney? ;) Glad you’re back, my friend.

    43. finally find some time to read and comment. since you killed me the last time i knew i had to read you. so putting my toe in, seeing if i can take it. thanks. im catching up.

    44. Well, I have discovered you long after this party has ended, but hopefully you still check your comments once in a while because I cannot move on without leaving you one. This story is outstanding! Absolutely outstanding! Your glimpse inside Tina’s head is so well written, the rage, the self-awareness, the feelings. Absolutely fabulous and so genuine. The writing is flawless too, dialogue, flow, all of it. I am grateful I now have so many chapters to catch up on. Thank you.

    45. I am so grateful to Jacky for putting Lastkid in the Author Spotlight. This is the type of story that prompts lots of thinking about TLW, Bette and Tina. Bette, Tina and fan fic writing. I selfishly hope that others feel the same and would share in the Spotlight thread.

    50. I’m loving it. I hope the new season will give us something like this. They should be together seeing Tina with a man just doesn’t look right.
