Quasi-philosophical questions of the night: When / where does a story begin? When / where does a story end? Does the story ever end? Or does it go on and on, my friends? [Apologies for the inadvertent ear worm.For those who don’t know the reference, search for “The…
Something New – Part 33 (Again)
Originally posted on Dellani Oakes:
My apologies that this part went up a month early. This is what happens when I work late at night. Clearly, that was a mistake! Although the interview goes extremely well, Austin is so stunned and moved by Liz bringing some of the Magician’s Fund children on the show, he’s…

After the press conference, they have a lavish lunch at Sarducci’s restaurant. While they are there, Dwight gets a call from Babs, telling him they have been summoned to The Presence. Austin has no idea what that means, but it seems to awe the others. Dwight tipped his head to…

To say that Liat has a surprise for Austin is an understatement. She goes to his trailer to tell him, only gets distracted by kissing him. There is a knock on the door and. . . . “We’ve met—a time or two. Hello, Liat, darling. Did you think you could…
