Late January 2011Reid had just followed Luke and Luke's Aunt Sierra onto the elevator. Luke noticed his brother Ethan frantically signaling him. He gave Reid a hard kiss on the mouth and told him that he’d meet him in their room. He then strode off the elevator and left Reid alone with Luke’s aunt. The doors closed and Reid found himself trapped with El Presidente Estaban. That wasn’t weird at all. Except that it totally was ( ... )

Your pulling some ancient history here. I love it.

Reid nodded. He understood having a calling. “You’re one of the few people I’ve ever met who makes my boyfriend’s life seem kind of hum-drum.”

“I was once captured by rebels and was assumed dead for a year and a half.”

“Now, you’re just showing off,” grunted Reid as the president laughed.

LOL Oakdale history is always good for a laugh. Thanks for sharing.

Yep, I'm old. Thanks for reading! I thought Finn Carter was absolutely beautiful and I loved Sierra and Craig together. I hated the reveal that Craig had cheated on Sierra and begat Gabriel. It just kind of tarnished the audience's memory of their relationship. Also hated the reveal that Larry had cheated on Susan and begat Hunter. ugh.

Tell me this. I didn't start watching until the late 80's or so. At that time Craig was not a bad guy at all. He went a few rounds with Lucinda but then who didn't. Did Scott Bryce ever play Craig as a bad character or did they just give him a new personality when Hunt Block took over and he became super evil.

ITA about the egg stealing and Hunter being Emily's biological son. Dumb Dumb Dumb.

IIRC Craig was a bad guy from near the beginning. He was the obstacle between the Supercouple Betsy Stewart [played by the cute as a button Meg Ryan] and Steve Andropolous [Kim's former brother in law]. He tried to frame Steve for crimes, tried to kill Steve, pretended to be paralyzed so that Betsy would stay in their marriage out of pity, pretended that Betsy's baby was his, etc.,

And embezzling? That's always been a hobby for Craig.

But . . . he fell in TRUE LOVE with Sierra and he semi-reformed while they were a supercouple. He was never a Good Guy but around this time he was more a rapscallion than a dirtbag. And the actor [Scott Bryce?] really was charming. He kind of reminded me of Kirk [before they made him a murderer out of the blue].

Thanks, that first paragraph sounds like the Craig that finished the show. I must have joined in during his semi-reformed days. I know I missed the Andropolous era.

Thank you!

One of the fun things that occurred when Sierra showed up in Oakdale and it was revealed that she was Lucinda's long lost daughter was how jealous Lily was.

The president raised an eyebrow. “It’s my understanding that communist revolutionaries bring good luck to a wedding but fascist revolutionaries bring bad luck to a wedding.”

This fan-universe AND its authors are simply priceless!

Thanks! I do love this fandom. It's pretty amazing how much fanfic is still being written for characters that only appeared together for nine months [and maybe once or twice a week during that time].

Overall, terrific as always.

Reid bounced his hand nervously. “The weather is supposed to be nice this weekend. Barring revolutionaries the wedding ceremony in the Presidential Courtyard should be lovely.”
Even going into panic mode, Reid is stellar.

Never knew about this aunt of Luke's. Very interesting.

Thank you!

Sierra was an adult when she arrived in Oakdale. She didn't know that Lucinda was her biological mother and was P.O.'d when she found out.

I loved this. Reid and his thoughts about Luke's crazy family is always funny

Thank you! Most people only have to put up with a handful of in-laws. Poor Reid has dozens.
