A/N: As you will see, I've taken some liberties in the writing of my story,
but for the most part, I am attempting to remain true to the characters
that we all know and love. Reviews are loverly, and will definitely
encourage me to write new chapters.
It's been a year since we last encountered the Bohemians of Alphabet City, and their lives have continued to spin. Both out of and into control, if that makes much sense.
Maureen and Joanne are still together, barely. And their relationship continues to be a dramatic one. Mainly due to Maureen and her wandering eyes, hands, lips and everything else. But they don't mind the fighting so much anymore, because the making up is so much fun.
Collins has left NYU to head west and teach at Stanford. They've only been slightly more receptive to his theory of actual reality than MIT and NYU were. But he's happy. No longer the therapist for the Bohos, he's delved into his own mind, and come to peace with many things, like his parents throwing him out and Angel's death.
Mark... well, continues to be Mark. His camera is constantly with him, though rarely on. He doesn't have the money to pay for all the film that it would use to have it continuously running. He still holds the role of the peacemaker, although, Roger has been getting the best of him lately.
And of course, Roger and Mimi, the couple everyone loves. Well, for a short period of time. They lived happily ever after... for a while. And then, despite Roger's help, Mimi fell back into her old habits. One night, very much like how he'd lost April, Roger came home from a show he'd been playing, and found Mimi in the bathroom, skin cold and a needle hanging from her arm.
Since then, it has almost gone full circle back to the time before Mimi joined their group. Roger rarely goes out, Mark tries to get him to go out. The only difference is that Benny isn't charging them rent and hasn't cut their power... yet.
