The first (and fourth) times Ryan got suspended. (In this case, the fourth.)
I promised to post this continuation/sequel this weekend, so here it is. I'm not happy with it, but I had to spend most of my revision time shoveling snow instead. And we won't even get a snow day out of the storm. What good is 11 inches on Saturday?
Ah well. Enough complaining. On with the story.
Insert usual disclaimer here.

The first (and fourth) times Ryan was suspended
A Sekrit Santa gift for mel39, who mentioned that she liked pre-Newport stories. And yes, this is a new installment in my long-abandoned "First Time" series. This part is also (cough) only the first time Ryan got suspended. The fourth time isn't quite complete, but I promised mel this fic by New Year's so here, at least, is its beginning. Happy New ( Read more... ) -
Home Improvement, Part 4/4 (although there will be a short epilogue)
Just because I wanted to post something--anything--before the end of the month, here's the quasi-conclusion of "Home Improvement ( Read more... ) -
Trick or Treat? Simple Truths, 2/?
Today was the very elastic quasi-deadline for the "Sandy is a . . ." challenge. It's really open-ended (post anytime! But please do let me know when you do so that eventually I can make a post linking all the stories.) Since it was my challenge, though, I thought I should update my "Sandy is a Novelist" fic. I'm doing something different here--well ( Read more... ) -
Blood Ties (Part 4/5)
What's "Blood Ties," you ask? That's a reasonable question, considering it's been 19 months since I've updated. So . . . to save you venturing back, back, back to review, here's the short version: Frank Atwood (my version, not canon's) is being released from prison and has requested that his sons come to pick him up. Very reluctantly, Ryan has ( Read more... ) -
Simple Truths
So many delicious Officer Ben pics today, and here I am returning to vintage Ryan Atwood. This is, well, let's call it the teaser, for my AU "Sandy is a . . . " story. (He's a novelist, by the way.) Really, I'm just posting this part because I wanted to post at least a fragment of fic before the month was up. And look! I just made it ( Read more... ) -
An AU Challenge for Brandy
I don't know if you remember, but back at the beginning of August, our brandywine421 lamented that she felt like a challenge but, well, also didn't, and asked if anybody else might launch one, preferably AU. As somebody who doesn't wander far from canon, but who could use some fresh inspiration, I was both intrigued but doubtful. However, I finally decided, why ( Read more... ) -
Home Improvement, Part 3/4
Sigh. Long, long ago when I started this story for last summer's "bash Ryan" month it was supposed to have only 2 parts Then it was 3. And now . . . well, unfortunately, I got caught up in Ryan's unconscious dreams, so it became longer. (Unconscious dreams, I found, are a lot of fun to write because anything can happen and the action doesn't have ( Read more... ) -
Coffee Break: A missing scene (but not really) for "The Metamorphosis"
AN: "The Metamorphosis" was one of my favorite season 4 episodes, but I admit that finding a true missing scene stumped me. Nothing screamed "There is a void here!" (well, nothing Ryan-related anyway) so I just created a scene that I would have liked to see for the sake of some Kirsten-Ryan bonding and a little--very little--Ryan character ( Read more... )
