Heh. Does this mean we might bump into Claire around here now?

[slybrunette]

Well we would've...if Claire didn't have other places to relocate to.

Part 4 is on its way.

Okay, you're well aware of my character biases and interests, but even absent them, this is really excellent. I definitely think Alex and Danielle might have some problems adjusting to each other and each other's issues - props to Alex for handling high school! Lovely work.

I knew you'd like the inclusion of Alex...which was a bit of a motivator I'll admit. And yeah, I think they would have problems at the beginning especially. It's an interesting relationship and i haven't really touched on that topic...well ever. So this was as close as I got.

I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for r/r-ing!

Another really interesting chapter. I imagine some parts of this hit close to home. I can really see Claire as a counsellor. I love how there is not an automatic bond with Alex, anymore than there was with Jack. I wish there was more than one chapter left.

[slybrunette]

This entire chapter was very much inspired by my own experiences...you seem to be the only one who caught that. But Claire would take a job like that and so it was very fitting, in my opinion.

I'm kind of sad to see this end too, since I've written the last three parts over two days so I'm gonna miss it, but I'm just so glad I'm done with this table as well.

Thanks for reading!

She wonders how in the hell she keeps running into people from the island.

That amused me muchly.

Loved the inclusion of Alex and the conversation between Alex and Claire. Also loved the whole end of the chapter. I agree with Claire's observation, that Alex is/would be so much wiser than any other girl her age.

Great chapter! :)

Alex must have had to grow up quickly, considering the environment she's in. And she does not act at all like a 16 year old on the show, so I just ran with that.

Thanks for r/r-ing!

I believe that these people will keep running into each other. I believe they truly are connected whether on the island or not. Hence the way this is set up.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading!
