Dawn/Faith has never really appealed to me, but I'm so glad I read this one, because it was perfect. Dawn with her "I'm a woman," and Faith just accepting that. They were right for each other, and I'm really glad Dawn was the one to make the first move, not Faith. I love that they are comfortable with each other and your Faith is so calm and collected yet she's that in a very Faith-like way, it just makes me want to squee!
Then there was Blue Crush, which I've only seen once and don't really remember. But the characters came through, and you made me really feel for Eden, and then Lena. I liked the phone conversation between Anne-Marie and Eden; the longing on Eden's part and then the sadness when you realized she'd never really have Anne-Marie.
Your Bridget/Viola was AWESOME. The narration was very Vi, and your Bridget was great - confident and like a "force of nature." The way Viola knew what there was between Bridget and Carmen, and just accepted it, was heartbreaking in a sense. And the last line was my favourite. (Although perhaps you meant 'understood'? I don't know.)
And finally, dude. Your Haley/Mina made me want to giggle in delight. It was so cute, and so very much like the girls we knew in the movie, what with the "hand"-phone. I loved how Mina was able to make Haley smile just by smiling. Also how Mina was the sure thing that Haley wanted was great.
I AM SO GLAD YOU WROTE ALL OF THIS. Thanks for sharing!!
