Fic: The Days Are Just Packed

[katzedecimal]

Yeahhhhh this one took a while, due to a combination of job-loss depression and plot convolutions. Nevertheless, here is the next chapter of the Happyverse.

To remind, the Happyverse is an AU of mine, inspired by canon events but not closely following them. It picks up and explores the theme I toyed with in Nothing Left to Lose, of Piper and

Oh, I love this...and I love the redemption of Rachel begins with Hart and James getting engaged. While Ozzie remains an asshat.

[katzedecimal]

Annnnnnnnnnnnd Rachel's starting to realise that. I almost feel sorry for her. Almost. *remembers Jerrie* Not much though.

Eeee! The plot is thickening but smoothly and not forming lumps. ^_^

[katzedecimal]

The trick is to simmer it on the back burner and stir it with a spurtle ^_~

Considering the other Titans involvement in everything and the time period how could Roy not be involved. The mayor thing is not referencing the recent mayoral Ollie Queen stunt but the older instant in which he had considered becoming mayor but chose not to because of some comments from his 'friends' in happyverse Ollie just sorta dove into the politics to right what he viewed as wrongs.

*wiggles* Katz knows just what to Make Ozzie say to make it ring mean.

I love how Katzy makes sense of everything. The originals were all like three unconnected but connected convos and she made it like one story because she is awesome like that!~

Awww thanks ^_^ In DC's defense, theirs is a product of many, many writers, all with their own visions, under the control of multiple editors, also with their own visions. Trying to reconcile it all is where we got major universe-resetting events like Zero Hour and the original Crisis on Infinite Earths. (Recently, yeah not so much.) Whereas Happyverse is me and Axo screwing around XD

Wally totally missed the implication of ring-shopping. Just because his friends are both guys -- that's all right, they'll still invite him to the wedding.

Yeah... Jesse here... I found out where those jewels are coming from.

Tricks is working for law enforcement as a special investigator?

I like that James clues Green Arrow in about Roy -- maybe *this* GA will treat his son better than the canon one did.

I like that Piper is thrown off-kilter by the fact that his mother suddenly seems to want to reconcile with him. Of course, marriage (and especially the possibility of grandchildren) have helped bridge more that one family's rifts, so it's not totally unbelievable that Rachel has a change of heart. I do want to see her and James interact some more.

[katzedecimal]

Rachel's not changed so much - she's still 'gotta keep up appearances.' Think what kind of an event the ground-breaking marriage of the Rathaway heir could be.... ^_~

[neotoma]

Well, she's not going to reform overnight... but her *talking* to her son instead of screeching at him is a big improvement.

[katzedecimal]

^__~ The ripples are already starting to be felt.

Happy snugglemuffin!
Happy JJ!

I love how heroic the "villains" are and how bad the so called heroes (well, some of them) are.

a wedding! a wedding! we´re going to have a wedding!

Snugglemuffin!!!!! He is most certainly James's snugglemuffin, and a decidedly happy one (when his dad isn't being a turd, anyways..)

Wait'll you see Hartley's outfit. He is SO pissed XDDDD

[axolotl_lan]

lovely lullaby! I can /just/ picture James singing it XD
