Inspiration
In June 2003, shortly after Carly was kidnapped, there was a rumor Sonny would order Elizabeth kidnapped in retaliation. I wrote the first story in response to that, and kept writing. I’m not really sure why it’s in series, but that’s just how it worked out.
Timeline
This is set in June 2003, right after Carly was kidnapped from Jason and Courtney’s aborted wedding. Jason and Sonny have already searched Ric and Elizabeth’s home once.

No one could ever know me/ No one could ever see me
Seems you’re the only one who knows what it’s like to be me
Someone to face the day with, make it through all the rest with
Someone I’ll always laugh with/Even at my worst, I’m best with you, Yeah!
It began as a flash fiction series, just to see if I could do it. Once upon time, before their permanent lock and his death in the fire , Lucky and Elizabeth were the best of friends, and in honor of this memory, this series was born.
This is a series of absolutely fluff pieces, designed just as an exercise to only write a story in dialogue between an alternate version of Elizabeth and Lucky. Mixed with the Liz and Lucky dialogue entry are several Liason companion pieces and one Jason and Brenda dialogue story. These are marked by either Brazen or Liason in their titles.
Do you want more entries in this series? Reply to this page with a prompt — this was a flash fiction series so I need prompts to produce the silliness!

I’m standing on a bridge/I’m waiting in the dark/
I thought that you’d be here by now/There’s nothing but the rain/
No footsteps on the ground/I’m listening but there’s no sound
Isn’t anyone trying to find me?/Won’t somebody come take me home?
The inspiration for this story came, ironically, from listening to an Avril Lavigne song, and I’ve quoted the pertinent lyrics above. I remember thinking at the point Ric pretended to sleep with Carly (and let’s just call it what it was–an emotional rape) that Elizabeth was so isolated on the canvas of the show at that point, where would she go if she, a rape victim, discovered she’d been dating a rapist? The show never really delved into that part of the storyline, and they missed an opportunity I think. But anyway 😛
Thanks to the girls at LU for all their wonderful encouragement in writing this, particularly Cathy, Pia, Waheeda, Maja, and Nicole. This is some of the best writing I personally think I’ve ever done.
Timeline
This is a set of stories that begins in late May 2003. Ric has been revealed and taken care of. Elizabeth learns she was just part of the plan. Emily has learned about Zander and Elizabeth’s one night stand and left her alone. Lucky and Elizabeth have spent a lot of time together while Jason and Courtney are still dating.

In January 2004, there was some asinine story with Carly being at either Shadybrooke or Ferncliffe and for some reason, she stabbed Jason with a needle (I think it was an accident) and this particular stuff in the needle was supposed to make you go where you felt safe. Jason went to Courtney, but I (in all my Liason fan glory) thought it might be fun to write about his going to Elizabeth and the studio. So here we are. If anyone remembers the ridiculous story that actually set this series up, please let me know. I have no clue.
I went back to Liason Underground where I originally posted this story, and got a kick out of reading the old feedback. I had originally intended this to be a one shot, the first part, and then someone asked for more. And I wrote one more part. And then Cathy gave me the idea for setting up a crib. Every time I posted a new part I kept swearing this was it, but it eventually became Good Associations: The Incomplete Complete Fic. Thanks to the ladies at Liason Underground, circa 2004. You guys made those crappy days worth watching.
Timeline
To be more specific about this story, this takes place during the time Carly was struggling after Sonny shot her in the head (AND THEN GOT MAD AT HER BECAUSE SHE DIDN’T FORGIVE HIM FAST ENOUGH–I’m fine). She checked herself into a mental health institution. Somehow, Jason ended up there and Carly was struggling with medication (I don’t remember the full details). Jason got the injection instead and left. The doctor told Carly not to worry, that he’d go some place he felt safe. Yeah, that sounded dumb in 2004 but considering the quality of writing we’re getting in 2021, I’ll allow it.
At the time, Jason and Courtney were on the rocks for reasons I no longer care to remember. Elizabeth and Ric were relatively solid at this point (despite the panic room, pushing to bring back vision incident–and the poison and embolism and attempt to smother–okay, lots of unresolved feelings here, obviously). Let me know if there are any questions!

This series is a rewrite of the first General Hospital fanfiction I wrote back in 2002 and the majority of the third story, Sweet Revenge, is lifted from my story, Deserving. I honestly can’t speak much to where my inspiration came from other than a desire to write something. I had watched GH off and on through high school, but in the summer of 2002, I was recovering from foot surgery and stuck in the house. I rediscovered my love for General Hospital and though I’ve walked away more than once, I’ve always gone back.
I don’t care much for this story, which is why I never finished my plans for it — it involved Emily returning to the fall out of events of Sweet Revenge and whatnot, but eh. It’s not that great, and I have no desire to deal with it, though I’ve always wanted to go back to summer 2002 😛
This is set in August 2002, before we knew why Brenda was back in town, before the warehouse explosion that took Kristina (Alexis’s sister)’s life, but after Elizabeth slept with Zander. Things to remember about that period of time: Felicia was dating Roy DiLucca (yeah, I didn’t understand it either), and Skye had signed a contract with Edward to bankrupt Jax because she thought he cheated on her. Additionally, the story reflects the fact that I used to be a huge Courtney/AJ fan, mostly because I hearted the crap out of Billy Warlock’s AJ and wanted him to have whatever he wanted.
Beyond a general decision to rewrite it, I don’t really know what I’ll be doing with it yet. I don’t know which elements will be saved, what will get jettisoned. So just stay tuned.
