1. Chuck’s twelve when his parent divorce. His eight-year-old sister, Sarah, crawls into bed with him and asks him what that means ( ... )

Chuck! I really like the way you fill in his background here, family and university and joining the military. I especially like the family stories, the divorce and his sister, and I'm fascinated that he felt able to walk away from his sister after what they went through. But I'm also glad that he did--that he was able to go live in the future and not merely study it.

I totally thought you must be posting to the wrong community until I got to #5! :-D And then everything slotted into place. Wonderful! (And I love the shout-out to Peter.)

Thanks to colls for brainstorming with me! Note: this fic contains references to sensitive issues, including abortion and 1960s attitudes toward single parenthood ( ... )

4. It's not until she's happy, of course--not until she's figured things out and settled into the role and everything's going smoothly--that it all comes crashing down ( ... )

This was just absolutely wonderful. I love that you did it with a tertiary character, and really gave the pieces a chance to grow by using two posts. You also did a neat thing with the Summer of Love and Pill parts, aging the piece into a time frame that fit for Wendy. I liked that you really chose turning points in Wendy's life. Literal moments of change. Well done!

Thank you! I notice we all went with non-major characters; it was a good prompt for exploring other people.

I had fun coming up with historical events for Wendy to have participated in, so I'm glad you enjoyed that!
