Title: Chapter 3 - Staking Claim

Naughty Jason! I got a kick out of this chapter. Tara knew something wasn't right but was gentle about turning Jason down. I like how Lafayette got Sam to cool down. Well done!!!

Author's Response: thanks! he's got good folk looking out for him.

Author's Response: Ha ha. You never fail to make me laugh. Girl, I started a chapter and it was horrible. So, it is back to the drawing board. Dunno when, but, there will be one. I promise. Sorry you have to wait a little while longer.

Title: Chapter 1 - Tears of Joy

Girl the Jason thing is disgustingly bizzare. I am not even interested in what the ass maxine is up to. My main concerns are Lafayette and Jesus which is bizzare but still cool for now; what happens to tara and I might be in the minority but I still like Bill and I hope he smokes the Queen! That bitch! Eric Sookie jason maxine even Sam if he picks up with that thing could just jump in the frekking sea for all I blasted care. I just hope that tara does not hook up with YET another loser!

Author's Response:

Bizzare is right! You never fail to make me laugh. That's for sure!

Title: Chapter 1 - Tears of Joy

You both are so dead on with the writing.....different styles (Threeb is trying to kill I by not getting to juicy bits between sam and tara....but I'll wait) But both enjoyable and breathtaking. I LOVE IT! As for Tara leaving town....well she is driving off...we have to wait and see what s gonna happen in S4. I agree that she took Sam's shapeshifting reveal to the chest and stood up. Thats our girl!!!!! But Jan I was reflecting on what you said about Ball not pandering to the happy ever afters and it is so true. After season 3 no one on that show is happy. As you said S1 remains my favourite season because I had such hope for the characters.....now....meh....not so much. And having read teh spoilers for S4....I am in a stink mood. Jan Threeb....can we just hope....

Author's Response:

The only two things I am curious about in season 4 is where the heck did Tara go to and what shenanighans will Maxine Fortenberry be up to as she tries to bust up Hoyt and Jessica's relationship, and will Bill's ass be toast in that fight with the queen...and that's pretty much it. Everything else, like Sookie going off to la-la land with her fairy relatives or Eric boinking her brains out has no appeal for me whatsoever. Not to mention that hogwash notion of Jason being the godfather to a bunch of inbreds. I mean, COME ON! The show has digressed into becoming one big circus. Such a crying shame. Anyway, I got to head back to the lab and invent my next chapter.

Title: Chapter 2 - Morning Shift

They are so sweet together. I'm so glad that Tara is comfortable with actually seeing him shift. Thay have a bright future ahead of them.



Author's Response:

Thanks threeb_1973. My belief is that even the TV Tara would've handled Sam's reveal pretty well had everythig else not pile up on her. Even back in the trailer in S3 episode 12 she didn't exactly cut him off and disown him and ran out on him but actually spoke her mind and listened to his advice about re-booting and that in itself says a lot. I don't think that her seemingly leaving town was just due to him telling her he was a shifter. I think it was Eggs' death and her mother hooking up with a married man were the main reasons. Had it just been between her and Sam and nothing else (no Eggs and no Lettie crap), then they would've eventually worked it out. Our Tara is a strong person.

As for your stories, well, need I say more than this: IT's SO GOSH DARN IT AWWWWSOME.

threeb, please keep writing! Cannot wait for your next chapter. Thanks for posting them.

~peace

Title: Chapter 1 - Tears of Joy

Jan I am FED up of the Tara haters out there! I mean....when you look at teh intereaction between Sam and Tara, you see that Sam is only his true self with Tara. They talk they come from the same background of abandonment and need; they connect. When I saw the inclusion of a new shapeshifting female for sam literally screamed! See mih here, I am not even willing to give her a chance on the show and ah telling you flat, my mind closed on that!!!!! And what the ass are they gonna do with tara? Probably link her up with some other loser! Ball and them is real head!

Author's Response:

Girl, that is why I stop reading the damn spoilers because they make me so angry. I think A. Ball is bent on portraying disfunctionality as he once said that normalcy is boring and that bad things are more interesting. If you check out his past works, it is looking more and more that way to me. For instance, Six Feet Under, I found it to be dark depressing and twisted and nothing uplifting about it. It was certainly not a 'good feel' show. It did the opposite and made me feel bad, practically every episode. Nearly all the characters in that retched show, save the mother, was weird and dark. 

I think A.Ball is brilliant in his own right and TB season 1 was pretty good, but, I am having my doubts about him putting Sam and Tara together romantically at all which is sad because as you said, those two characters are so similar and they understand each other quite well. But wha' fi do? Cho, dem can just move and gway wid dem shapeshifting teacher character who is supposed to woo Sam! Feck! I telling yu you know.. mi not watching season 4 because mi not putting up wid anymore of their steaming pile of ...LoL!

Thanks for letting me vent. I'm so glad to find folks that feel the same way as I do on the topic.

Jan, that Anonymous post from the 23 january at 10:45 is mine eh. I just wanted to make sure that you knew its from me.

Author's Response:

I knew it! LoL! It sounded like you but I wasn't sure.. Thanks for letting me know. But thanks so much for your review. I just wanted to get it out of the way, the shifting part. Anyway, onto more chapters..right?

I am slowly working my way up to the Thanksgiving dinner. I have it my head right now. But, I'm hoping to do it in the next chapter (chpt. 3).

Only if there were more TAMShippers like you and me out there in the big wide world then maybe A. Ball and all would listen to us and stop the bull. Oh well.

OMG OMG OMG!!!!!! It was great as usual. I thought that you were going to introduce the shift earlier  and deal with it a little more since were I Tara I would be anxious to see what I was dealing with. But I liked how you brought it in at the end when she was comfortable and fully awake. Girl you ahve a real grip on this thing and I am simply loving it! Keep it coming!

Girl I am so vex right now eh. And you know what i cannot understand? There are so many deceitful people out there who, if they are honest, would ahev to admit that season 3 was yutter CRAP! Apart from the Bill sookie story (okay the fairy thing is pretty retarded) and Sam finding his family and getting real angry (which was great since Sam has had a nasty temper from season 1) the whole jason thing and the arlene thing was juist faeces!!! And do not get me started on teh franklyn/tara thing when jason hafee rescue she! I mean. TB is now an unholy and an ungodly MESS! And NOW they bringing in a new woman for Sam!!!!!!!!!! I am totally outraged!

Title: Chapter 1 - Tears of Joy

Alan Ball should call both y'all to have some semblance of a sensible story. The fact that TB was not nominated for GG or PC or any of those should be a wake up call to Ball and the guys. On a note I am seeing that Sam will have a new love interest this upcoming season!!!!! I am getting ready to throw in teh blasted towel right about now! I am so not frigging impressed!

Author's Response:

T'dad. You're too kind! But I can't agree with you more about TB not getting so much as a nomination for prestigious awards which says a lot. A prime example of the foolishness they (Ball and all) are subjecting us viewrs to is the new love interest for Sam in upcoming season 4... LAWD GAAWD!!  That made me see red and I refuse to watch that horse manure. There, I said it. No more TB for me.

I know I said I wasn't going to but I just did some updates to Volume I: Never Too Late, chapters 2, 3 and 7. As for the second chapter in Volume II: Lives Anew, I am presently working on it. I am half-way through.

I don't know how I missed volume 2 of this wonderful story, but I'm glad I finally found it. It's so wonderful to see Sam and tara happy together. I'm glad you're doing your part to keep the TAM spark alive...Alan Ball should hire you to write for the show!!!

Author's Response: Aww, you're making me blush. Thank you. Actually, it is you Alan B. should hire as the lead writer to preside over rest of his crew. I'm just imagining you walking into one of his many boardroom meetings and saying "..Alan, I've got this...". I am really enjoying The Return. I look forward to seeing more.

I'm so glad you're continuing this story! I love your take on Sam and Tara, and thoroughly enjoyed Volume I. Volume II is already off to a great start. You could have knocked me over with a feather when Tara admitted she already knew Sam was a shifter. Poor Sam seemed to have conceived of every possible response but that one, LOL. Looking forward to the next update. :)

Poor Sam, he was completely bowled over that's for sure. Thanks for reading. Working on the next chapter so stay tuned!

Title: Chapter 1 - Tears of Joy

I followed the first volume after accidentally coming across a Sam and Tara fic (my fav couples on the show) and then I just started looking on the chamber for them, and voila! I loved the first story and I love this one so far. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see how these two deal with the craziness of Bon Temps as married people.



Author's Response:

Thanks Victoria. I'm glad you stumbled across this site. It's actually awesome. TAM (Tara/Sam) are also my fav couples as I think their TV chemistry outshines the other couples. Too bad Alan Ball and the rest of them won't tap into that more. Anyway, there is always the fanfics. As for them being married, it never occurred to me but it is quite a tempting prospect. Thanks for reading and giving me such a good review. Spread the news we need more TAMshippers out in the world. LOL!
