I haven’t really shared this fic on here because it’s been so slow going on my end 😅 But I feel like it’s finally in the home stretch, so here you go!

Summary:

In her third year as owner, Rebecca Welton is taking a break from dating and throwing herself into the club. Meanwhile, Ted returns from Kansas with an eye toward the future, one that includes dipping his toe back in the dating pool.

Chapter 7 Excerpt:

He let out another shaky breath. “It’s Henry. He’s sick.
Rebecca’s brow furrowed with concern. “Oh, poor boy. Did something happen?”
“No, I think it might be the flu? Or a stomach bug?”
“Okay.” She frowned, trying to think how she could help in this situation. She knew where the campsite was, but it wasn’t exactly close by. “Is there something I can do? Shall I send for a doctor?”
“No. He’s, uh, he’s not with me. He’s at the Higgins' tonight and I c-can’t—I can’t get there—

I feel like some people need to relearn Genre Expectations... "Man, this tragedy sucks!!! Why didn't they just do XYZ, then everything could have ended happily!!" well, then it wouldn't be a tragedy, would it. "Man, this lighthearted teen romcom is terrible, it's so sappy and unrealistic!!" Well, yeah. If it had been gritty and dark, it wouldn't have been a lighthearted romcom, would it. Is the writing actually bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot

I would still use my turn signals in the Mad Max Wasteland. They'd call me "Signal" because I'd hit my blinker before ramming the enemy hot rods into the side of a desert ravine. I'd use my turn signal every time. They would respect me for this.

I call upon the fan fic writing gods to bless you with the perseverance to finish one of your unfinished drafts. 

May your fingers dance along the letters upon your device with ease, may the devil of distraction stay far from you, and may your work not need much editing.

I pass this blessing upon every fan fic writer out there.

As it came to me I give it to you.

People used to comment on web comics.

People used to comment on fanfiction.

People used to comment on fanart.

People used to comment on OCs.

I hate "content" culture.

I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.

People used to be excited about the art that other people created.

People used to want to share that excitement with creators.

I hate this future.

Once someone tagged art that I made with "woah" and I think about it at least once a week. Someone else said "oh neat" once. Someone else WROTE A WHOLE DAMN POEM IN THE COMMENTS. Anyways even just one word can change how someone sees their art. You don't even have to think about it too hard. You could put a keyboard smash and I'd probably cry from joy.

I'm also trying hard to interact more, I understand that it's hard to break away from opening your phone and being in Content Consumption Mode.
