For the sake of my enjoyment, we're going to assume the following premises, regardless of the actual circumstances. Lauren is included in the plot line, Vaughn doesn't know about her true allegiances, Sydney's mother is alive, no hit has been put out on Sydney, and scratch Nadia, too complicated. Disregard anything in any later part of the series, especially the explanation for her absence, and I may or may not have seen the second season. You may ask if I can simply erase all the happenings that led to alterations of my fundamental basis, and I say "Of course I can. It could have happened this way if one of the writers had been sick that day and they called me in as a replacement."
And, since I am such a pure child, this is going to include some type of lemon because I live vicariously through fictional characters. Also, because I think Sark is … well….all that and a name brand bag of chips, it's safe to assume Vaughn lovers may be satisfied by other works. But, who knows, he does have some soulful eyes, they could compel me to allow a bit of extramarital Sydney action. I have no love of Lauren, which will likely become obvious, so I have no qualms about breaking up their "happy" marriage. If any of this is not to your satisfaction…you CAN send emails, but, hey, this isn't Burger King so I don't have to have it your way. And flames, as amusing and pointless as they are, are also best kept for the food service industry.
Oh…and I'm not sure if disclaimers are actually necessary, but – HUGE SHOCK – I own nothing. Not even my ideas. This could be because ideas are influenced by everything that we take in, so there will inevitably be similarities between my plot/verbage and other Sarkney fics I've read. I'm not trying to encroach on their territory or anything, it's just a compliment. If I could remember specifically where I found these ideas, I would post it. But, I don't. If you know, you could post it for me. I may choose to believe you.
