I just posted chapter one to ff.net at www.fanfiction.net/s/2581303/1/ . This will be primarily from the "Gilligan's Island" POV, but of course has our pals Ralph and Bill, and Pam and O'Neil in it. The final chapter is the one that'll tie in to what happened in Chapter One of "Lilacs II," if you remember that. It's not going to end pretty. Oddly enough, Bill's not in the first chapter. Go figure. (One more story after this one, Lilacs IV, in which Bill gets revenge.) |

Yeah, after reading Lilacs II, I want to know what happened to O'Neil! When do we get to find out?  |

Oh, some day.
Naw, seriously... the GAH "sci-fi" one I'd been wanting to do ended way sooner than I'd expected (who knows what one's Muse is going to do, after all?) so I'll get back to this one soon, probably even today.
If you know anything about lilacs, you know they're fresh in the Spring. This one starts out July 3, 1982, so I need to work in some months before Spring 1983. If you recall, Chapter One of Lilacs II mentions a fresh bouquet of lilacs, so Spring it is.
I know how the story'll END, but I need to fill in the stuff in between some how, lol... trying to think of a little adventure the folks who know about the suit can get into, with Gilligan's inept "help" of course... altho nobody else will learn of the suit, including him.
I was thinking he'll SEE Ralph and the suit in action, but of course when he tries to tell anyone about it (like the Skipper), they'll all be, Yeah, right, Gilligan! (I mean, this IS Gilligan after all, who's going to believe him?)
Lilacs IV will be GAH alone, no crossover... this is primarily Bill's and O'Neil's relationship, after all. Bringing in Professor Hinkley in Lilacs II was actually more for my benefit, than how I'd planned the story originally; he helped solve the problem of "How are they going to learn of this stuff without drawing the attention of the gubmint?"
sorry, I'm going on here... but thanks for the request, that's what I need to light a fire under my bum and get back to work on it. Now I know at least three people waiting for an update, far out!

Hot off the press: Chapter Three. www.fanfiction.net/s/2581303/3/A read/review would be awesome, preferably via FF.net (so others can see it). Thanks, we fanfic writers live for reviews! (It's on the GI side of FF.net, which is why I posted it in here; wasn't sure if you folks kept track of non-GAH stories or not.) |

I'm really on a roll with this one, and I'm hoping to finish it either tonight or tomorrow (it's just 6:30PM on the US left coast, so I've got a while). I'm getting it set up for the coming Spring, 1983, when "it" happens (go read Lilacs II Chapter One if you don't know what "it" is.) If you didn't see the link, here's the chapter I just sent to FF.net: www.fanfiction.net/s/2581303/3/ |

I just finished this, if any of y'all wanna go read the two chapters I just added. They may or may not be showing, so here they are: www.fanfiction.net/s/2581303/4/www.fanfiction.net/s/2581303/5/It's pretty fluffy and from the GI POV this time around. Has some action in it, of course. The concluding story, Lilacs IV, is going to be Drama/Angst (yea, love those categories!) It ties in with Chapter One of "Lilacs II," if you remember how that started out. I know Lilacs III seemed kinda rushed toward the finale. I'm anxious to get on with IV, because it's going to be fun to write, probably my most intense yet for GAH. It'll be a stand-alone story; the GI folks have headed to their various homes. Stay tuned, cuz I'm already itchin' to get started on it. |
