Herbie looks back on his relaionship with Rose and thinks of what could have been. I honestly don't know. It's a better story than what the summary says IMO.

Rose writes a letter to Herbie that she knows she'll never send.

Songfic to 'No One Knows Who I Am' from Jekyll & Hyde. Rose, not for the first time, looks back on her life, the life she's made to show other people for so long that she doesn't know who she is anymore.

Songfic to 'I'm Not That Girl' from WICKED. Louise thinks back on when Tulsa was still there, a part of June's act. June looks at how her marriage to Tulsa failed when he left her for Louise.

Songfic to 'My Immortal' by Evanescence. Rose reflects back on the years she was with Herbie, even though it's been years since he left.

Sonfic to 'On My Own' from Les Miz. Rose reflects on her relationship with Herbie. Yay! My not-Herbie fic set to a love song-ballad thing.

Songfic to 'As Long as You're Mine' from WICKED ... and just for this moment, as long as you're mine, I've lost all resistance and crossed some borderlines.

Songfic to 'Almost Lover' by A Fine Frenzy. One of the numerous fics I've written from Herbie's POV. He's looking back on his relationship with Rose and how he could have avoided it but not be the man he was after he left.

My second Gypsy fic. Rose gives Louise June's old "Let Me Entertain You" for her strip tease, but why did she still have it after June left her? Mostly Rose thinking to herself.

Songfic to 'Nobody's Home' by Avril Lavigne. After Herbie's left, he looks back on the years he spent with Rose and the girls and how it affected her.

Songfic to 'Once Upon a Dream' from 'Jekyll & Hyde.' This fic is really crappy, but this song reminded me of Rose and Herbie.

It's the last night of the two-week run at the burlesque theatre and the group of them are going back to the hotel. Rose and Herbie were trailing behind, and this is what happened. Cookies to whoever figures out what musical the first line is from

Songfic to 'Power of Goodbye' by Madonna. Set when Herbie is getting his stuff and leaving after he had to go throw up because ... I'm not telling you. I think you should know if you're looking up GYPSY fan fics.

Songfic to 'Listen to Your Heart' by DHT. Rose's and Herbie's thoughts as Herbie is leaving Rose and Louise at the burlesque theatre. I almost started crying when I was writing the ending in my head. This song just fits Rose and Herbie, don't it?

Gypsy Revival. Based on Patti LuPone and Boyd Gaine's portrayals. He knew he shouldn't be here. But that girl looked so much like Louise. He just had to know if it was her. And if it was, he had to know how his Rose-Not his anymore- was. RoseHerbie

A songfic to 'Behind These Hazel Eyes' by Kelly Clarkson. Louise still grieves over Tulsa's leaving with June, but she can't show her emotions to anyone.

No one is strong all the time.

This is what comes from reading EverTheDreamer's 'Control' one too many times. June's thoughts and what she heard. Why I thought it necessary that Yonkers gets all the random lines, I don't know. Title may change.

Gypsy Revival. My Mama Rose is, as always, based on LuPone. "No!" Rose cried out, falling to the floor in a heap as hot tears spilled from her eyes. She reached out for him as she sat on her knees, her hands opening and closing around empty air. "Herbie!"

Gypsy Revival. My Rose is, as always, based on Patti LuPone's portrayal. He silenced her by kissing her full on the mouth. "Herbie," she breathed against his lips when he broke the kiss. "What are you doing?" "Distracting you." Shameless PWP. RoseHerbie.

Gypsy Revival. Inspired by Patti LuPone. Her portrayal of Rose brings so much humanity to the role. "They always leave. My baby got married before I did. But I do promise, Herbie, I do. And I'll keep my promise I swear. Just please don't leave" RoseHerbie

Gypsy Revival. So, Patti LuPone is just one giant bundle of sexual energy and she inspired this piece. I must admit that this is pretty much a shameless PWP. Rose and Herbie battle constantly for control. Sometimes, she lets him win. RoseHerbie

A story from the musical Gypsy. Louise is visited by an old acquaintance, which leads her to think about her mother.
