Yeah..I´ll send you the stats for the kids if you want... I feel that with a lot going on for the other kids(I mean you saw "The ghost of Madame Delphine") her parents tend to...not leave her aside...but just imagine that she will be easier to take care of and don´t worry as much...Not that they make her feel diferent, but just...her issues are others, more simple every day matters, and that could put a natural barrier between her and the rest of the family even though nobody sets that diference voluntarily. I´m thinking, maybe I´m gonna make it a songfic, probably with the song "Put your records down" by Corrine Bailey Rae... I dont' know that song I do think it would be good to use her if she's going to be human for just that reason though. Oh man, imagine 4 mutants getting their powers within like, 3 years of each other in the same house- headache!

I know...I have to hurry and start writing their teen years soon!!! JD is so gonna get on her Nina´s nerves, hahah
Those are the lyrics to the song(which is all kinds of cute and girly): Put Your Records On Corinne Bailey Rae lyrics Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae Album: Corinne Bailey Rae Year: 2006 Title: Put Your Records On
Three little birds, sat on my window. And they told me I don't need to worry. Summer came like cinnamon So sweet, Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but it's alright The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same Oh, don't you hesitate.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song You go ahead, let your hair down Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams, Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Blue as the sky, sombre and lonely, Sipping tea in the bar by the road side, (just relax, just relax) Don't you let those other boys fool you, Gotta love that afro hairdo.
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change. Don't you think it's strange?
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song You go ahead, let your hair down Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams, Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Just more than I could take, pity for pity's sake Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer. Do what you want to.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song You go ahead, let your hair down Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams, Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song You go ahead, let your hair down Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams, Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Oh, You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

i guess now I should bring up the fact that anything father/daughter, even songs, makes me tear up. I don't know why. My dad's alive and all but, at the same time, uh... he's an alcoholic (i know getting personal there but it's kind of been a fact my whole life so it's not too odd to me) so he's a bit hot and cold for me on the relationship side. Sometimes he's nice, other times you want to beat the snot out of him with a wiffle bat. Very confusing. I still enjoy the songs/fics though

Why don´t you pull the Andy Warhol all the way and play a little with those bright colors with his skin and shirt? It could look even cooler than it already does....

btw, sorry to be such a downer on that. As I said, it's really kind of a fact that I'm used to- it's more annoying than anything but those father daughter things creep up and get me when I least expect it- haha!
As I said, I'll still enjoy it. It's odd, your family interaction fics (like Moby knob) I really relate too, even though they're nothing like my childhood because it's the kind of stuff I know I would've done/probably did do (my sister's and I used to play 'Bedknobs and Broomsticks' but didn't have a dad like that.) Keep in mind, my dad wasn't horrible, it wasn't until I was aobut 16 and he and my mom divorced that he was finally 'allowed' to drink again *my mom didn't let him in the marriage* and turned into the dad-jerk (I would like to stress he's never hit any of us or anything, he jsut can be so damn childish.

I didnt think that...I know this is a problem that comes in many forms and not always so Oprah show dramatic like we think...Still is nice that you(at least it seems to me) have a very mature, balanced way of dealing with this...
My dad Remy is much based on my own dad...He´s like that kind of dad that jokes, plays along with the kids, watches cartoons and read comics and all...and my mom is the serious/sweet rock of the family so this is really the model for my Munroe/Lebeau clan(those family models we get from our own childhood are a pretty intense thing in shaping how we view life...) But I guess childhood is just universal like this...everyone can relate to a game of roleplay(Moby knob) or childhood ghost stories(The ghost..)because everyone has been in situations like this...Children will be children right?

Ok, macbeth- check your e-mail- I corrected that OreO fic we're working on for your approval (of course). My husband should be home in a half hour and then we're going grocery shopping. So midnight to 12:30 might be the best time for me to talk about the fic continuously.
I'll be lurking until about 11:30 when I leave for the grocery then!
