I'm curious...what was your inspiration for this?

[tyleks]

I was really bored yesterday and trying to kill some time, while talking to someone I know on LJ and asked them to give me a fandom. I didn't want to write a HP fic, so then they suggested Babysitters Club, and I never read any of the books. Then we started talking about fics that ruin childhoods and somehow Boxcar Children came up as a fandom. I couldn't remember the oldest girl's name and she told me it was "Jessie--never Jessica" and then my brain was struck with a weird semi-genderswapped fic, except it really didn't come across as much as I hoped it would under 250 words. I hope that answers you question.

Oh. That was rather neat. :-)

Violet couldn't name everything Jessie did to her body...
I like that bit. It brings home the innocence of the situation. :-)

Thanks! :D

Thank you! Blame el_em_en_oh_pee.

I find myself blamed! :|

Wow, I haven't thought about the Boxcar Children in years!

And it's so moving, the way they don't have the words for what they're doing.

[tyleks]

Thanks. I figured the probability of Violet (or Jessie, for that matter) knowing what other people called what they do was very slim.

my childhood will never be the same...
in a good way... ;)
you should really post this at the rare slash comms if you haven't already, it's wonderful.

[tyleks]

Mine neither. ;)

I think I will! Thanks for the suggestion.

Also, much icon love!
