    Great points made, @MrsRacooney ! Your dad definitely seems like Zayne -- wanting to hold on to that youth and innocence haha

    Seems as if I missed my own thoughts or shared them without actually reading the chapter? :scream: Zayne presence has been good for me, I'm developing superpowers and will be part of Harper's vigilante world B) You don't happen to mean @Asaoyoru ?

    I don't know why so many people have such a problem with Zayne's attitude in this chapter? He said he's fine with her haircut and new style as long as she's happy and the tattoo and jail thing is probably the issue @Asaoyoru brought up with wanting to hold his baby girl. Fathers will always be worried about their daughters and of course sometimes that's annoying but in the moment Hozay let her do everything. :) Powers of positivity! That's probably my superpower ;)

    @MrsRacooney @Asaoyoru I blame the fact that I didn't drink coffee this morning and it's my first day back at work after having the summer off. My brain isn't working Hehehehe

    Thank you both for your thoughts on the chapter :heart:

    Okay, I attached this to Saturday's chapter, but I'm going to share it early here in my thread, along with a discussion question :blush:

    I got nominated for the Memory Lane Challenge, which is when you reflect back on your five favorite moments from your story (so far! :tongue:) (Also, I have tagged @InfraGreen @AudreyFld and @cecerose0208 to do this challenge too. And if you've already been nominated... sorry :tongue:)

    I thought it'd be fun to share my favorite A2A moments, and maybe also ask you guys what yours are? I'm curious! :blush: (Please don't go through the trouble of picking five. 1 or 2 is plenty! I'm just genuinely curious about what moments have stuck with people)

    I am afraid to know @InfraGreen's favorites in her story.

    My favorite was Joce and Mark finally getting their happy ending.

    I second Mark and Joce's happy ending.

    That but also them banging after Luc's funeral. It was sad (especially afterwards) and cringey but I was aching for any kind of ship revival back then.

    Sure, I'll play!

    THE INFAMOUS WEDDING!!!!!!!!!

    Zayne getting the SHI****** beat out of him by my Eun. :love: (Not that I didn't feel sorry for poor Zayne. I did. But it got him home, didn't it???)

    Tobi and Colette's shower scene... (We need more of those moments...oh, Harper, dear....??)

    Harper's quick thinking in the shoplifting scene. If my heart pounds, I remember it! I'm REALLY thinking that she's going to be my favorite heir and not because she loves my babies (although that helps...ha ha!)

    ok i'll join in but it's my top 10 (with some additional notes)because there's too many good ones to pick 5, so in no particular order (although 1 is my favourite).

    1) Zayne finally tells Joce that he feels as though she was like a mum to him (and mark was like his dad)
    Nearly had me crying going back and rereading that chapter to get the wording right.
    2) Hozay's wedding Purely because the amount of time it took to get there.
    3) That face Zayne pulled when he saw Harper's hair. That's going in the best parent responses book, if one is ever created.
    4) Mari finally realising what she accomplished in life. Definitely one of my favourite Mari chapters, along with the one when she meets Colette's parents.
    5) Auggy marries Noah Because he rejected him the first time for the right reasons, even if he didn't think it through. It was great to see them togethor.
    6) Tobi gives Zayne advice Even if Zayne doesn't get the point of the advice, it's still sweet to see.
    7) Harper punching Katie in the face. Bonus points to Harper for this one
    8) Eun punches Zayne I'm with @pammiechick , it got him home didn't it.
    9) Zayne stands up to Greg and yells at him. I knew Greg was up to no good. Good bye Greg.
    10)Stefan gives Joce the journal Still very memorable to me, even without rereading the chapter.

    Honourable Mentions

    - Josh is out of place (the one where he can't understand them) I remember google translating all the german bits (well I did that for every chapter with german 'cause I had no idea what it said) but I do remember understanding a tiny bit of it. :)
    -The whole Markylne Journey and ending. No explaining required
    -The Mark, Hazel, Luc, Joce chapter where they learn Mark is Hazel's dad. Just because how ironic it was.

    @Skcaga6 @InfraGreen @SeaDragonSong @pammiechick @Bugsie2016 Thank you for sharing your answers! It's so fun for me to see which moments stuck for people ^_^ (And Pammie, hopefully I will do another one someday hehe we shall see ;) )

    I only got one I can think of right now that I can share, and that is Zayne's college party, and the end of it. >:)

    Oh, the wicked schadenfreudian laughter that came from me when Zayne's reputation built on lies and deceit crashed and burned around him. (Thanks Dom! :D)

    Thinking took a while but I believe those are the five moments that have left the most intense memory, maybe not exactly the best one but definitely the strongest.

    1) the chapter when Tobi went to see Luc's body. I was so completely and terribly heartbroken that I had to pause reading for two weeks until I felt ready again to go on. Even now I haven't got over it and it's probably the most intense thing I've ever read in my whole life. Honestly. It's just so... Can't even express how well-written and realistic it felt. :tired_face:
    2) Zayne and Harper at the doctor's when he learns that her hearing will never be normal and she just doesn't get it and plays happily in front of him at the bottom. Woo hoo, emotions!
    3) Mari and Jonas's wedding <3
    4) Harper, Rylie and Devin stealing because I literally felt the adrenaline rush myself. On the one hand, I wasn't okay with stealing at all but on the other, I wanted her not to get caught. Torn! :s
    5) Eun beating some reason into Zayne :p

    Hehehe @rednenemon I was very amused by both your choices :tongue:

    @MrsRacooney Thank you for your answers, and I am sorry about #1 :( That was the most gut-wrenching thing I've ever written in my life. I was crying while writing it, crying while screenshotting it, and then sobbing while reading the whole thing back once it was done.

    Since the cat is out of the bag over in my story, I will reveal Rylie and Devin's parentage.
    Devin, @cecerose0208 will be happy to know, is Theo and Gabby's (from the club) son. Great genes! Siobhan missed out...and it broke my heart he finished third. :heartbreak:

    Rylie is Julien and Siobhan's daughter. This honor went to Julien since he was second place in the Hottie House Finals.

    Now...back to A2A!!!

    Both couples made beautiful babies! However, I'm happy that Siobhan and Julien didn't have any kids. :) Just saying... now I gotta think about the A2A memorables... there are so many!

    Thank you for sharing those beautiful genes, @pammiechick ! Harper certainly appreciates admiring those attractive gifts

    Hopefully these gorgeous AU babies can help ease the wounds of those whose ships were sunk :tongue:

    They losing ship will bitter for a little while, losing in a ship war can't be great but there's adorable nooboos so they'll recover (I hope). So glad A2A doesn't really have ship wars. Now, to wait and see what trouble Rylie & Devin get Harper into.
  • AudreyFldAudreyFld Posts: 6,695 Member
    I think most of mine have been mentioned...

    Of course #1 will probably be Luc and Hazels wedding. :o I mean who could forget that! It was epic.

    Tobi going to see Lucas body...that was just so sad. :'( It wasn't just onion ninjas, it was full on sobbing...

    Zayne getting beat up by Eun! >:) He was such a little snot back then.

    Mari confronting Josh in his hotel room. :o I went back and reread the chapter and my comments. Yes, one of my favs. I really began to dislike Stefan when they found Josh and he was all 'Ohhhh Daddy! I love you!' when Jonas had been his father for 15 or more years. So I really liked her tearing into Josh.

    I know I'm supposed to stop now, but Tobi and Colette's makeup sex in the shower. o:)<3 That was hot.....Tobi's behind....mmmm

    There were so many others, but I will stop now....

    Thanks for the nomination @CitizenErased14 (I'm nervous about @InfraGreen's memories too!)

    Thanks @AudreyFld ! I loved your choice of Mari confronting Josh :blush:

    And I am glad you and @pammiechick enjoyed that shower scene so much ;) Maybe I will give Harper a steamy moment in the future. Hopefully ;)

    HOORAY for STEAM!!!! Whoop! :joy:

  • CitizenErased14CitizenErased14 Posts: 12,187 Member
    Now the question is with whom said steam will occur ;):tongue: I wish I could write faster and get back to my 3-a-week schedule! There is so much in store for Harper that I am eager to get to... but real life loves to interrupt -_-

  • AudreyFldAudreyFld Posts: 6,695 Member
    Now we are drooling to see if said steam will be with the dreamy Devin! <3
