#3 TOUCH TONE: The Ringer – Tina Kennard L Word

”No, but thank you.” I reach into my briefcase for several file folders.
”Caitlin? Bring in some trusts and marriage financials for me.” Joyce presses her intercom. ”And please bring us some Pellegrino.”
She focuses back on me. ”Well, Bette, you mentioned something about needing an adult to talk to. Was it about something other than marriages and money? I suppose it’s not a birds and bees question that’s on your mind.” Joyce gives me one of her sly crooked smiles.
”Here’s everything I own. It’s changed somewhat since my father’s estate was settled.” I hand over my accountant’s file folder. But, there’s something else I need talk about.” I clear my throat to start.
”Where to begin?” I wonder aloud. ”The short intro is I got a phone call late last week from a woman claiming to be a neighbor of my mother’s out in a desert somewhere. I’m guessing New Mexico, maybe?”
”Hm, is that right? From my digging into your life so thoroughly when … well, back then. I recall files on your father, but none on your mother, who, now that you mention it, I could have sworn was deceased. Now, you’ve got me curious. Why was that, Bette? Did you know she was still alive?”
”WitSec happened apparently. When I was very young and I always believed what my father had said – that she fell very ill one day while I was at school, and had died suddenly.”
”So, you never saw her in the hospital? And the Feds had her the whole time? Wow! Now, that must’ve been a shock for you.”
”It was a huge shock.”
”And when was this?” Joyce takes out a legal pad and begins to write.
”Friday late afternoon, and then we went to Malibu, and then, I asked Tina to marry me. Actually that night I proposed to her.”
”Uh huh, interesting timing for you and a shrink to think about but go on. So you got a call?”
”A Skype call from an elderly Native American woman who introduced herself as Mary Windhorse.”
”And said she was a friend of your mother’s. Right. So, what was the crime she witnessed, I wonder?” Joyce taps her Mont Blanc pen against her pad. ”How many years have passed since you last saw your mother, Bette?”

Brilliant ! I loved We-Ho but this Season 7 promises to be Fantastic! This chapter is so great – I hear Bette as I read of so clearly and Joyce what a hoot!
My favourite couple plus a great version of Joyce plus a nod to Hitchcock and Brandy – what more could I want – Answer – another Chapter please soon!
Excellent! WeHo’s power couple off for a grand announcement and celebration. Perfect!
Gosh, loved that chapter. Too bad IC couldn’t come up with something similar to give us, it would have been awesome. Of course, she couldn’t really do that because Jenny was patterned after her own life, so she siad in interviews. Blackbird, you’re awesome. Thanks for posting.
Another SMASHING installment!! Definitely loving Season 7!!!
Great job! PPS
Wow so much going on here, this is good blackbird but I didn’t expect anything less
Amazing chapter! loving this seventh season.
Can update this story.
Waiting for new chapter
Blackbird,
Just finally caught up with your latest installment. And as promised I would leave a comment. You have always amazed me with your writing and i also like the pics.
How I wish that there was really a season 7 where Jenny didn’t die bcoz when she died in S6, the show also ended with a lot of questions most esp. if someone killed her or she must have just fall by her own doing.
Anyway, thanks for exploring this for us. I am excited for their announcement and of course I’m also looking forward for Bette’s reunion with her mom.
XOXO

Ok first off I have to apologise for missing this story I don’t know why but I by passed it for some reason anyway iv spend the weekend reading it from the beginning and I didn’t want to leave a message until I was all caught up ok so here goes absolutely loved it and as it goes on it just gets better and im loving all the twists and turns and im so pleased you got to put jenny in here place lol great so im looking forward to the next chapter so pps.
Excellent …this is your best work… and I love this chapter. Bette and Tina are a perfect couple.. keep up the good work.
Thoroughly enjoying this chapter. Trying to sort out where stories begin and end. When I look up your name on “Search Fanfic” the story titles are not listed which makes for confusion. There must be an easier, more logical way. Other authors have each chapter listed so one can select the story or chapter that one wishes.
** Until this site’s cataloging and display gets fixed here is the order of the stories in this book.
First, to refresh from the end of WeHo where this book, Touch Tones, begins I suggest you read the chapter titled, The Lucky Ones found here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=85893.
Then read, Coming Home here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=86129,
then Malibu which is here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=86144.
That is my recommendation. Now, Season 7’s inspired NEW book, Touch Tone’s Chapter One is titled, #1. After Midnight, and begins an hour after Malibu ends. The first chapter in Touch Tones: After Midnight is here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=86526.
Chapter Two is called, #2. Touch Tones: The Handler and is here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=86539.
The next story (#3) is Touch Tones: The Ringer L Word is here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=86574.
Then following that story you read Chapter 4, a story I had great fun in writing, too, and its titled: #4 Touch Tone: Kryptonite and is here: https://mail.assertive-maroon-jellyfish.104-250-143-187.cpanel.site/?p=86655.
Now! Welcome to The L Word inspired Season 7.
