Title: Chapter 4

Thank you for the update. I watched OLTL for a period of about two (2) years- 1999 - 2002. I saw Evangeline, John, and New Todd by chance. I got to admit -I tuned off the show after the whole...Jen/Cristian/ Natalie saga- most of my knowledge on Jovan is watching YouTube clips.
I got to say, Evangeline really has a history of choosing bad-uns. RJ- what the dickens was she thinking- (I think, I understand why she was paired up with him), couldn't have desperation written any clearer.
John..what can I say? ....
Cristian...the less said, the better.
Point being...she seems to choose men, who quite frankly, showed how much better she could have done or how little she valued herself. I am not too sure, which to be honest.
Her chemistry with New Todd was out of this world. I'm glad they stayed friends...however,  I could have easily seen them being together. Even in your story, their chemistry is more visible and believable than hers and John's.
The whole Spencer/Blair/Todd situation. I personally, lay 70% of it at the feet of Blair.
Margaret, comes across as a pantomime character.
As you rightly stated...fanfiction can change the dynamics of a relationship and/or character, to how one thought they ought to have been. You do this very well.
Have a blessed and wonderful day.


 



Author's Response:

Sarah Anonymous once again your observations are on point.  Most of my knowledge on JOVAN also comes from watching YouTube clips.  For the most part I agree with your observations on her romantice entanglements as presented on the screen.  Her friendship with Todd was a thing of beauty though and it is a good thing that it onlyprogressed to friendship.  The writers didn't know what to do with Evangeline's character and as in most soaps they always play musical chairs with who's coupled with whom.  

The pickings were very slim for Evangeline and yes unfortunately she did not choose well.  The fun part of what I do is to change the characters to my liking but still use what the screenwriters put on the screen and mold it into what I prefer.  Thnx for the compliment about that.  

But do give Evangeline credit that she did leave John and she did let go of Cristian, although she never should have been with him in the first place.  Don't get me started on talking about that.

Thnx for the review and have a great day!
