Right. Just for our own sakes' reference, and for anybody who wants to follow/join in this, here it goes. For now, the dramatis personae are: Chase -
broken_circles. Ginny -
lilginnygirl. Caleb - this one. Pogue -
lieutenantwitch. Sarah is
astrayinadream.
It all started with this three-parter fic:
Part I,
Part II, and
Part III, set in the next schoolyear after the events of the movie, where Chase tries the senior year thing again.
And then Chase and Ginny ran across each other again, around two years later. Link with that story will go here.
That encounter resulted in Ginny getting pregnant. Which she informed Chase of by leaving him a voicemail message from a public payphone. Probably around very early August.
A few days later, he wound up back in Ipswich. And he
talked with Caleb. And then he asked the boys to help him find somebody.
to which Caleb reacted with wanting more information, which Chase refused.
And then Caleb
figured it out. After which he needed a tiny bit of time
with Pogue.
He called and got an OK from Ginny to come visit her, because this all wasn't for the phone. Before which he
talked with Chase again, where things got additionally clarified and confused.
After which
Pogue and Caleb went to visit Ginny. And took
another, longer time out on the way back.
On the next day (Wednesday), he
talked with Chase again, telling him about that, sort of.
The Friday, the conversations between Caleb and Chase actually seem to be
getting somewhere; and then Ginny calls for that meeting.
Which really didn't go well. And then a bit of talk
on the way back.
Then Caleb
brought Sarah up to date. Warning: This thread has taken a decidedly NSFW turn.
Next day, early morning, he set off to
pick up Pogue from Ginny's. And later,
Caleb and Pogue talked with Chase. After which Caleb took the evening off. Really.
And later
Pogue had a reaction to it all, where he talked both with Sarah and with Caleb.
Caleb sent to Ginny
Chase's letter. And her phone, so Ginny and Chase
talked some.
Chase had
commentary on the boys starting fun without him, where he talked with Caleb, with (a) Tyler, and briefly with Sarah. Who then
talked with both Pogue and Caleb.
And then Caleb
had a conversation with Ginny.
Revelations from the past - some of
what Caleb finds out about Chase's family and somewhat more is revealed when
Caleb makes a visit to Chase on-campus.
