Seasons 1& 2 Hybrid with emphasis on the bashing and the recovery from it as I think it could have/ should have happened. 

Initial Plot Bunny from Deb Tanner: What if Michael had tried to stop Brian from going into the prom and had witnessed the attack?

Spoilt little rich girl Lindsay Peterson gets everything she wants, when she wants it; but now she has something she doesn't want, a surprise half brother called Justin Taylor, who stands between her and their late father's estate. As well as getting her for a sister, Justin has another problem in the form of his best friend, Michael Novotny. They met in art class where Justin was a teacher's assistant, and became fast and best friends. One drunken night, however, they made a deal that if by the time Justin reached 28 and Michael 35 and if neither of them were in a relationship, they would marry. Speaking of marrying, Lindsay wants to marry her best friend, the gorgeous but repressed Brian Kinney...who Justin takes one look at and wants for himself - who will win? The sister? The brother? Or the wannabe lover?

Plot bunny by the lovely Cathy Sunderland - thank you!

Thanks to Liberty Sun/Marny for the fantastic banner!"

A novel length re-telling of the Little Mermaid,w/QAF characters inserted.  WARNING! This is not the Disney version rather an homage to the superior work of Hans Christian Anderson. There is both a sad and happy ending. To keep the sad ending do not read Dawn of a New Day. Although to date, I don't think anyone has done that. If you are still with me, ENJOY!!! Reviews, good and bad are always welcome

I consider this my best work to date.

Orginally updated and finished, May 7, 2011

UPDATE: Dec./2024 : I was re-reading the story and making minor edits when I realized I'd left out an entire chapter on this site. Added Chapter 6 Part 3 The Second Dinner (just before: Interlude: In the Midnight Hour.) Story is now complete.
