C'est la Vie by Jennifer Babcock for October 30, 2009

Since….???

Aw… :)

Since…? If Mona is thinking what I suspect she’s thinking…. “Oh God…” doesn’t begin to cover it!

Oh agony! What will Mona do to solve her crisis. She seems so powerless. It’s just not like her to be that way. She needs to decide whether to pursue her relationship with Ryan, or move on with her life.

Experience is what You have left when You have forgotten the name.

…never?

Since Raoul back when Mona was a preteen geek in Paris.

What? Nobody else read the archives?

It is better to have never loved than it is to have loved and lost.

I’ve read the archives, just can’t remember Raoul so well. Mona wasn’t going to say since she’d met Lucas, was she?

Come home, Mona. Come home to your bunny.

Which makes this a breakthrough moment regardless of whether ever she sees Ryan again.

Mona is blushing in the last panel. She probably hasn’t blushed since back then, either!

..jeepers!!!..

I read the entire archives in 3 days…no she’s going to say since hooking up with Lucas…I just know it! 2nd panel tells it all!

This storyline is wonderfully revealing of a side of Mona we’ve never seen, but it is moving sooo slooooowly. (And this is from a devoted fan of Prince Valiant!)
