    Author Notes:

    The “Holidays” continues the story of the refined and rebellious Dr. Sydney Livingston•passionate about her causes, love and life. In this segment, the serious Syd deals with the dual loss of her career and her mysterious long-time partner. It is a time of uncertainty as Syd pursues uncharted romance waters, and a time to discover a fresh identity in the world of her new L-Word friends

     

    Max blushes from the compliment but is confused by the comment.  Max cuts his finger on the tent hardware.

     

    MAX: Damn-it.

     

    Syd reaches to help but Max recoils violently.

     

    MAX : Don’t touch me!

     

    SYDNEY:  It’s just a little blood.

     

    Max continues to pull away and suddenly Syd understands the behavior.

     

    SYDNEY:  My God Max, you’re afraid your HIV positive, aren’t you?

    Max walks away in silence.

     

    EXT.  HABITAT FOR HUMANITY SITE – EARLY AFTERNOON OF THE SAME DAY

     

    Alice is painting alone in a bedroom.  Syd enters the room, dips a brush into the paint can and joins Alice in painting the room.

     

    ALICE: I don’t need your help.

     

    SYDNEY: You mean you don’t want it.  But it will give us a chance to talk.

     

    ALICE: About you spooning my girlfriend?

     

    SYDNEY: You know it was innocent, I was comforting her•it was a nightmare.  .

     

    Alice‘s paint strokes against the wall become angry.

     

    SYDNEY: Or do you want to believe it was something else?

     

    Alice stops painting and turns to Syd in anger.

     

    ALICE:  Why the fuck would I want to believe it was something else?

     

    Sydney takes a few steps toward Alice and stares into her eyes.  Syd’s her tone is very pointed.

     

    SYDNEY: Because you seem to be looking for something to be mad about•something to drive a wedge between you and Tasha.  An excuse to end it.

     

    ALICE: Who the fuck do you think you are saying something like that to me? Tasha was devastated when we broke-up briefly a few months ago.

     

    SYDNEY: (condescending) The only reason not to be devastated in a break-up is if you have someone else.

     

    ALICE: (even more agitated) And what are you suggesting?  That I was less devastated because I had someone else?

     

    SYDNEY: Perhaps even more than one.

     

    ALICE:  What the fuck are you talking about?

     

    SYDNEY: Specifically, I’m talking about Dana.

     

    Alice softens slightly and steps a step backward.

     

    ALICE: Dana is dead•or haven’t you heard?

     

    SYDNEY: I know that.  I also know that you consider her your soul -mate.

     

    ALICE: So?

    1. I saw this pop up early in the week but waited to read it over the weekend. I wasn’t disappointed. I love this character’s maturity and passion for what she believes in. I relate to her wisdom yet insecurity–I mean, who hasn’t messed a bed to pretend it was slept in? I’ve read all the Syd stories (even re-read portions of the original re: the wonderful relationship conversation with Tasha and the revealing fireplace sceen). “Holidays” shows Syd’s vulnerable side. She’s still grounded, but unfocused and searching. Nicely written–it was a pleasant New Year’s surprise–thanks!
