RE: Trailer Trash 36 + 37 A very trashy Thanksgiving.

Well there’s other issues too. Because she was the one that grabbed the bag, the paraphernalia is technically in “her possession” so it would be difficult to “prove” that they were her aunts in court. (She would have been better off calling the police to her house and them finding it). Also the little cousins are going to resent her, that’s their mom, no matter how awful. Tabitha’s relationship with them will tank with one derogatory remark from her aunt about how she’s trying to send her away. Also even if everything works out and she gets rehab, she could then try to get custody and then relapse… lots of issues ahead.

Oh, you can just see it from here how just as her relationship with her mother improves, her relationship with her father is going to take a bad step back now or something. They need to sit down and have a serious talk or two before he turns into someone she can't depend on and trust with her thoughts, feelings and plans for the future. Good thing there are people to help her resolve some things and situations. Had the same problem and later on fights with my father where he thought he knew best and made different calls and decisions on various things I was already set on without my say so or even knowledge. Now years later we are still very much in contact but we just ignore and don't mess with each other's lives.

Let Tabitha have her first love, it's her life and her Redo

Take your 'metaphysics of fictional Isekai mental sexual morals' and cram it up your ass

Sorry for the spam of messages but now my brains running...some kind of unrequited romance that isn't funny could be cool too: So far she's mostly seen and accepted the benefits of the time travel. Sure there have been some awful situations, but her age/maturity has been a help. But what she lost by time traveling hasn't been deeply explored. Like having to answer to parents, being dismissed, lacking any legal control over your own body and choices. She's had to navigate these hurdles, but never just suffer them. Cop she saved got her support and credibility from the law, and even when she just went up against her aunt, at the end of the day her grandmother and eventually parents came to her side. I think there's a lot to be explored character wise of how she deals with it when she can't problem solve her way out of stuff that just comes with being a little kid again. And loneliness from not being able to find a real love/partner could be a piece of that.

I totally get wanting to give her a romance/first love etc bc she ended up dying lonely and alone first time around. And I'd honestly love to see it. Just maybe in a later arc? Maybe there can be a time jump or something to when she's atleast out of highschool?

Notcreepycreeper

Also sorry for the wall of txt, Patreon doesn't let me do paragraph breaks. I'll say tho that I only wrote that essay bc I really like this story

Notcreepycreeper

Not with kids I hope. Cus she's not a teenager. If you'd gotten rid of her memories or something that'd be one thing. But she literally thinks like she used to. The entire premise of the story is her using her maturity and life experience to create a better life for herself and her family. Let me ask you a question, have you recently spoken to a 13 year old? Say you were transported to your 13 year old body, and now had the confidence to ask out your crush from when you were 13. And it worked. Do you think, with your brain as a whole adult, you would want to hook up with them? Do u think you would be stimulated by their conversation, as you hopefully are by romantic partners you now have as an adult. I like the thought of working in teenage hormones/teen drama that would come from living as a teen regardless of your mental age. I'm just saying that regardless of what she looks like, a 60 yo actively hitting on a 13 yo is kinda creepy no matter how you write it

Notcreepycreeper

But its not a 60 yo lady brain its more subtle and complex. It’s a a hybrid mind further being shaped by experiences that are happening in the now.

Wait, so she doesn't deserve a chance to enjoy the normal teenage years she never got to have?

FortySixtyFour

Glad your back!! But uhh, real request, please don't have the 60 yo lady brain start finding young teenagers hot/dating them. Maybe a slightly funny romance of unrequited love with an older guy?

Notcreepycreeper

Please do not let the story come in hiatus again no, I love this story

I wouldn't call Rebecca/Mara loyal to a fault, not after seeing how far she's come; she may just have what it takes to save Christine from herself. Alan on the other hand needs a smack upside his head. Seems his wife has that well in hand, thank RNGesus.

Youkai-sama

I thought the Thanksgiving flashback did a great job of contacting her lack of connection to her cousins before. It's easy to forget that part of the before. It also shows some of her own growth to having family, which she didn't much before.

Dang Fool

I would personally argue that it isn't Mr. Moore's loyalty that's the problem, it's his priorities. We'd still probably be aggravated with him for refusing to believe that Lisa was on drugs, but it would be understandable in the context of his loyalty... but refusing to listen to Tabitha (and even considering taking HER money for Lisa) is essentially establishing a hierarchy of loyalties and placing Lisa above Tabitha on that hierarchy. I probably didn't explain that as well as I could have, but again, the point is not his blind loyalty, rather whose loyalty he's willing to sacrifice when they become divided.

Kalel

Mr. Moore needs his head screwed on strait. Will she make a pass at him if Tab’s money is used to pay bond to get her out of jail? How much will she have to pay if Lisa runs…

MVFast

Love the rewrites, and I really enjoyed the first draft as well. As far as it goes with Tabitha struggling to deal with Aunt Lisa, I feel like she knows, deep down, that anything major she does could have far reaching consequences that might not all be good. It's probably just my view of the situation, and I apologize if I seem to be projecting my view of the characters, but I think she's nervous about what the whole butterfly effect of her dealing with Aunt Lisa this time around could mean.
