Je confirme, ça sonne mieux en anglais, moins péjoratif, va savoir pourquoi! J'ai coupé un poil le chapitre, parce que j'écris pas aussi vite que je ne poste! Merci pour la suite, j'ai repris toutes tes suggestions! (bon, je vais aller me biturer au sirop pour la toux!)
Um, okaaaay, now I simply must ask. As one who occasionally tries to dust off my high school Francais on your comments, what, please, is 'poor woobie' en francais? *chuckles*
I'm really not sure, perhaps "pauvre petit/pauvre chou", "pauvre bébé" (if 'poor woobie' means 'poor baby') It's really weird because when I was studying english at school, I was mostly studying translation. And now, I read in english, I (try to) write in english but I don't think what I write in French first. I just find the sentences in english. Since I only watched The OC in english, it would be hard for me to think about it (and to write a fanfic about it) in french.)
Thanks for commenting! I know it's an evil cliffhanger but if I want to post every week, I have to cut my chapter in half because I haven't been writing that much for this fanfic for a couple of weeks, so I'm pretty late in this story!
When I post the first chapter, I already had written 5 other ones. Now, I'm only one chapter ahead, so according to my state of mind, I'm late! (it's pathological : with the money, it's the same : if I haven't enough savings, I go crazy!)
Kids/Teenagers can be so mean Good thing Ryan has friends who take a stand for him. And yes, many teenagers might be embarrassed by their parents calling them at school, but as Summer so well explained, Ryan needs the reassurance that there is a mom who cares about him and doesn't want to get rid of him. Good thing that Sandy tries to spend more time with both his sons now. Yes, at this age they seek their independance a lot, but quality time with the parental units is still a good thing. And family therapy is a good thing too. Helps them understanding eachother better, especially with Ryan's self-deprecating thoughts (born from years of neglect and abuse) that are so foreign for the Cohens to understand, that they would never have imagined he would think so low of himself.
And now I'm worried about Ryan again. I hope, it's nothing serious. Guess, his body strength is still not what it used to be, so it's probably easier for him to catch something. Hope, he feels better soon and let's Kirsten and Sandy mother him back to full health.
Highschool is an awful period when you're not in the so-called 'in' and popular crowd. I wasn't and it was hellish! I'm a huge fan of all the Cohens+ one's interaction, so even if I prefer the Sandy/Ryan's ones, I kinda like the Sandy/Seth's one! (don't ask me why but I've always prefered the Sandy/Ryan and the Kirsten/Seth's ones...because the characters are opposite from each others, they were always interesting and original!) I don't want to spoil the next chapter, but I've picked a pathology which is a common side effect of anorexia and yeah, he's gonna be better after that (but I remember having written that it was gonna be a bumpy road!)
You know I'm in love with this story Brasseboillon.You've wrote it with a lot of compassion for sufferers of this terrible illness.
Poor Ryan! How kids can be so cruel "beats me". I think most of the cruelty directed at Ryan,stems from jealousy because of his advanced grades. It's so nice that Luke is defending Ryan and I never thought Luke was ever as nasty as he was painted.I'm hoping that he will be a great influence in Ryans recovery.(and Seth of course) Kirsten is well on her way to being a very good mother to Ryan and I'm hoping to hear Ryan call her Mom sometime soon.I also noticed that Ryan ate his sandwich after his phone call.(Nice touch on your part:))
I hope this story has a long way to go as there is such a lot more that can be done with it(just MHO):D
Please update soon. It's struck a cord and captured my heart.Please don't keep me in suspense too long. That would be cruel and bad for my blood pressure.LOL hugs.
Thanks for commenting! Kids are often cruel with other ones, especially teenagers! I haven't finished this story, so who know how it's gonna end (it's gonna end well, but that's the only thing I'm sure of!) I'll update next saturday! I promise he's gonna be okay! (hope your blood pressure isn't up to the roof!)
