A/N2:  For this story, I chose to have the earthquake occur about two weeks after Dawn abandoned Ryan with the Cohens.  We saw in Season 4 how the house and pool house fared during a substantial quake...

Chapter  7, Part A 

Author:  ChaseII

Story Rating: PG-13(?) (minor language)
 
Disclaimer: The OC Universe, with all its assorted characters, belongs to Josh Schwartz, et. al. No copyright or trademark infringement is intended, nor is any money being made.

A/N:  Many thanks to Beachtree, a delightful, generous, and insightful beta.  However, please know all mistakes are mine, mine, mine...   I appreciate those of you who are still sticking with this story -- many thanks for your interest and your patience!  


A/N2:  A Note on Kirsten's characterization here:  While I originally started this story before the final season of The O.C., when I still had hope that Kirsten would become a real mother to Ryan, the writers did the character no favors in that respect.  Though given numerous opportunities to show affection, concern, or protectiveness, Kirsten remained for the most part detached, cool, and distant, disappointing me on many levels.  While I think the writers intended for her to be seen as becoming Ryan's mother, I don't think they ever did.  

I think it's fair to say many of us have gone far further towards making her maternal in fanfic than TPTB ever did in canon.  While I like to keep characters substantially 'in character', Kirsten in this story is a bit of a blend between her canon self, and at least in part the woman I wish she could have been.   

A/N3:  Story is AU. This story follows just after the epilogue for Seventeen, and involves the Harts, who were introduced in that story. 

Chapter 6 is set December 1, 2006, in the morning.  As the story picks up, Ryan is driving Sam and Megan Hart's car as the three head to UC Berkeley (where Sam is to interview for a faculty position with the UC Berkeley Department of Architecture.)

Greetings, Flisters! And Thank You, Anonymous Gifter! (& Beachtree!)
Yves Voire
[info]chaseii

Many (very) belated thanks to my lovely anonymous gifter for a delightful little polar bear!  It's so nice to be remembered. 

As Beachtree was kind enough to explain, I've been trying to post my own 'Thank you', but was unable to post anything in my journal until today.  Amazingly, after Beach posted for me, my LJ issue mysteriously (and happily) righted itself. 

Provided I continue to have posting access, there will be more 'Hart Break' soon. 

(Hopefully a few of you remember that story.) 

Happy New Year!

A Week Late for My Own Party... but Thank You!

Just wanted to say 'Thank you!' for all the lovely birthday wishes last Sunday!  It was delightful to sign on and read your kind words!  (I've not been 'LJing' much recently, but hopefully will be here more in the future.)

You are wonderful Flisters!

Citrus Awards

[info]chaseii
Many thanks to  </a></b></a>[info]jenskyies and </a></b></a>[info]inevitablefict for organizing the Citrus awards, and thanks and congratulations to each and every nominee on stories that made me laugh and hope and shed tears and quake and cling to the edge of my seat.  For stories that made me care about these characters, and believe in their world, in ways the writers on the show might (should?) envy.   

To everyone who reads, and to everyone who voted, so many thanks.  Everyone wins, I think, when we touch and are touched by words.  I am in awe of what I read in this fandom, and deeply honored to be a small part of it.   

To have some of my stories honored by you?   Ah...  that's like getting real vanilla bean pour custard drizzled generously over warm rum-soaked bread pudding...  decadent, unexpected, and oh so very sweet!

LJ is being uncooperative -- it's making me divide this into -- count them -- 3 pieces [snarl], and I don't have time to do it right now.  Will post the rest of Chapter 5 this evening.

A/N:  I owe the flist about a hundred apologies for not reading and/or reviewing anything recently.  I've been traveling or entertaining for the last month and a half, with more to come.  During the time I've had to play with the fandom, I've been working on this little one-shot, and playing with the next chapter of 'The Hart Break'.  Mea culpa...
