Our Love To Admire
Hello friends and visitors. As I'm sure you can tell by the fact that there hasn't been a new post on my LJ since last January, my OC muse is dead and gone :( no matter how many times I re-watch old episodes or read one (of the few) other OC fan fics, I just can't get it back. I'm going to try to wrap up the stories that are here but there's honestly no promise of it happening or the endings being very satisfying.
All that being said, after hours of forced veiwing, my friends have finally gotten me hooked on Gossip Girl. I wanted to hate it, i wanted to hate JS for abandoning RM, I wanted to hate it because it didn't follow the books, I didn't want any of the characters to get their happy ending. Alas, the Chuck and Blair story wrangled me in and set off an explosion in my fingers. This fic is already posted on FanFiction, but I wanted to put it on LJ too, so here it is. Thank you again to everyone who suffered along with me, pushing me to be a better (and more consitent) writer, it means more than you will ever know.
Our Love To Admire: A Future Fic
A Chuck and Blair Story
All of our favorite Upper East Siders have grown up and moved on to bigger and better domination beyond the hallowed halls of Constance Billard and St. Jude’s, but now it’s another generation’s turn to reek havoc through Manhattan’s streets. All good tales must have a beginning and this one starts in the Hamptons, where Manhattan’s elite frolic in the sand and laze away the hazy summer days.
All of the major players are in the magical place for the society event of the year, the engagement of Yale Waldorf-Rose to Ulysses Graham Roosevelt - yes that Roosevelt.
Charles and his wife Blair Bass, on the last leg of their marriage, are hoping that the romance and memories of summers past will help them reconnect. Their twin daughters Audrey and Grace, however, have a much different idea of connecting now that they are back in the Hamptons after a five-year absence.
Workaholics, Nate and Jenny Archibald are looking for relaxation away from the city that never sleeps, and while they may feel secure in their relationship, a midsummer night’s heat can change everything. Their children Flip - or Phillip - and Izzy are hoping to stir up trouble in their ongoing summer tradition.
The ever poised and wonderfully respected Eric Van der Woodsen, along with partner Henry are Hampton’s staples - chairing every function and attending every benefit-along with adopted beauties Olivia and Theodore will attempt to uphold the family legacy.
Then there is Dan and Serena Humphrey, who have finally found a reason to drag themselves to that wedding present from Lily and Bart Bass that lays on two acres of Southampton real estate. However, will the culture shock prove too much for their children Lorence, Madeline, and Weston?
Things may heat up in the concrete jungle during the sweltering summer days, but all the drama of the Upper East Side will be scorching the Southampton Beaches this year.
