I had hoped that Marilyn's homecoming would result in everyone learning about what actually caused her amnesia (and by extension what really happened to Denny). But, having faced the judge for his arson crime (which could've resulted in 4 deaths-in which Billie was looking at 10 years for), and a stabbing (in front of a police officer) he is punished with cleaning the beach.... It was obvious he wouldn't go to juvie: no one really seemed worried about him not coming home, and no one, not even his girlfriend could be bothered saying goodbye (at least on screen). But i find it so appalling the way everyone is so dismissive of his wrong-doings. Like Zac saying he is proud of him when he doesn't loose his temper and stab Andy again after doing it once already? I hope Olivia realizes how unsafe he is to be around (though i wouldn't hold my breath). She knows everything he has done and swept it under the carpet because it happened before she met him(and he was under the influence of his awful mother ), but stabbing someone recently isn't exactly a sign that he is a good person for her to be around. Olivia is far from my favourite character because to me she is rude, judgmental and selfish at times where she really doesn't need to be, but Hunter doesn't need or deserve a girlfriend while he is continuing to not even care about his involvement in Denny's death and Marilyn's accident. That would be on a normal person's conscience, but it doesn't seem to be with Hunter, which isn't exactly surprising.

Nice one-shot It was interesting to see VJ with Olivia as opposed to Hunter and Olivia. And Hunter being jealous is understandable. It was also nice that Hunter called Leah his Mum and they are all a proper family. Glad Hunter is keeping his jealously in check though and doesn't want to cause trouble.

Great chapter I echo Red Ranger 1 in that this actually isn't that different from the actual show Leah and Roo's conversation in particular was great. Leah's defense of Hunter for his attempted murder(s), while Josh's (possible) covering for Andy is absolutely the worst because Zac ended up stabbed. And still nobody blaming Roo when it's far more her fault Oscar and Hannah died than Andy who is getting all the blame because he got into a fight with someone on purpose while Roo wouldn't have known Andy and Tank were going to cause a ruckus where they shouldn't of. The hypocrisy is astounding and in character and you did well to capture it. Still really enjoy Andy's turmoil. Because it's so ridiculous and funny imagining Oscar (and Hannah and Jake) annoying him and trying to torture him to death. The only thing stopping him from ending it all is Josh, who has gone. And seems to be dead now after Hunter's 4 day torture... I wonder what he did with the body. Andy seeing Josh like that would want him to end his life faster but Hunter might still have plans for him. And Evie. And someone else.... Really liked that Kat was found out. And more... Did Hunter make Josh write that? Emerson's right though- the cops and Kat are a laughing stock. I wonder if Kat will somehow go down for the money laundering too, i wouldn't be surprised if no one believes anything she has to say anymore... Olivia thinking Hunter has the biggest, kindest heart is completely in character and quite upsetting. I wonder who is next on his hit-list.. Loved it, i look forward to more

That was hilarious I just love how serious the situation actually is but its comical the way you are writing it because it's actually quite ridiculous. As pembie said, dark comedy, which is great. Love it. Continue to really enjoy Oscar. All the singing would do Andy's head in. Sounds like he is seriously considering killing himself, which isn't good but still somehow funny given the context and the ridiculousness. And it was great imagining Jake joining in with Oscar's singing Sounds like Hunter's got Josh somewhere and is going to do god knows what to him. And i agree with Red Ranger 1's comments about Evie's pills. Things don't look good for them. Really like how much of a villain Hunter is in this. And how over the top Zac and Leah are in regards to being thankful and happy Hunter didn't go to jail. It's a lot like the show but as Red Ranger 1 said taken a bit further. Great job once again Had a sudden thought- Wonder if Hunter will find out Kat knew and act out his revenge to her as well I look forward to more

Love it Zac really is father of the year isn't he. Smiling ear to ear because his psycho son got 100 hours community service. You capture the nonsense of it all very well. Even Hunter knows he probably deserves much more. Like the parallel between blaming Hunter for Charlotte's actions and blaming Josh's for Andy's. Even though it is the reverse for both... Loved the twist about Andy seeing all the people he has 'killed'. I'm still not convinced he 'killed' Oscar and Hannah but he (and everyone else) obviously thinks so. Really liked the addition of Oscar. Especially the singing (i think he would be more of a crooner too) and being an annoyance to Andy. He is so messed up- love it So now Hunter knows the truth. Wonder how far he is going to go... I look forward to more

Wow What a lovely ending to a heartbreaking but wonderfully written story So glad Kyle is getting along really well with his Italian family. Especially with his twin brother. I felt so sorry for Nico, feeling that guilt for essentially his whole life. But Kyle is right- it's not his fault at all. Lovely scene of Kyle meeting and hugging everyone It was good that seeing his family brought back nice childhood memories for Kyle. His Italian heritage is still there in him and i suspect that he is going to find out more and more about it as he spends more and more time with them Really great ending with everyone who cares about Kyle and little Noah. He has such a big family now. So different to how he was feeling not so long ago. Really well done Ludub Thanks for sharing

Great chapter! So glad Kyle finally has the answers he has been looking for. It must be so heartbreaking Brilliant writing. His pain at being taken and left out of a loving family And now he is looking at pictures of their smiling faces and feeling worse. Poor Kyle. Love that his biological family named him Noah And he is Italian, nice touch And it makes sense that he is actually younger than 'Kyle Braxton'. Really glad his biological family are nice I was sort of waiting for another massive curve-ball to be thrown, but it is going to be hard enough for Kyle meeting his family and bonding with them. Superb writing I look forward to more

Great chapter! Poor Kyle Still trying to process and understand what Phoebe has done, and thinking about how she has changed from the person he fell in love with and trusted most in the world at one stage in his life. Now he is more sad than angry, which is worse in a way. Really like Heath's continual support. And glad he opened up to Bianca about how lost he feels considering what has happened Trying to be supportive of Kyle while being upset yourself is hard. And now Bianca's pregnant And they are staying in Summer Bay It seems Phoebe was trying to do the right thing, but too late. Understandable Kyle, Health and Tamara want absolutely nothing to do with her. If she wanted to tell them she could've tried harder and just blurted it out instead of trying uselessly to talk to Kyle . But I'm not sure they would believe her anyway... Really glad Kyle may finally have the answers he has been looking for But i hope he is not disappointed if his birth family isn't what he expected. I look forward to more, update soon

Once again, great work

Great final chapter! I really understand why Maddy had to leave Oscar with Denise. Standing back and watching but not being overly involved would've been really hard. Really liking Oscar's new role as father And glad he has Skye and his family to support him All in all a very lovely story with a bittersweet ending. Great work

Great chapter! Continue to really enjoy Health as a character and his relationship with Kyle. I had no doubt that he would be fine with Kyle changing his last name but i get why Kyle might be worried about how he would react. Glad Josh and Andy told Health (and Kyle) about Phoebe. I think Health handled things well all things considered. And Phoebe still doesn't do herself any favours. Liked the addition of Emerson. Glad he saw through her and now she's in trouble. I really hope she doesn't stuff things up even more... Kyle deserves to be happy not have a deranged ex-girlfriend ruining his life. Brilliant writing of Phoebe once again Really liking the Summers Such nice and welcoming people, just what Kyle needs. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! It occurred to me that Phoebe may have tipped off the journalist. What an absolutely horrible thing to do. She feels guilty but not enough. And she is in a good mood after her chat with her father. 'Kyle had kind of forced her into it by letting Heath fire her. The more she looked at it, the more she felt that it wasn’t really her fault'. Phoebe's justification is absolutely appalling. Great job writing her though! Glad Kyle and Tamara decided to take the Summers name. And that Kyle decided to keep Kyle. It would feel weird having a new name that isn't affiliated with his identity at all. Tamara is being really understanding, from him scaring her last chapter to taking the Summers name with no question. Really supportive relationship which is exactly what he needs. The ending- wonder who Uncle Nico is... Nice cliffhanger Also really liked the Chris and Irene addition. And Andy seeing Phoebe's deal... Josh should tell Health about it, though I suspect there will also be drama surrounding Uncle Nico. I wonder if Phoebe will sink even lower and withhold any sort of information that they may want. I look forward to more, update soon

Really great chapter! Liked how Oscar took on basically full time Dad responsibility so he could keep his child. I thought this may happen. Like the name I echo Ludub in thinking Skye may not be ready for this level of commitment but i look forward to seeing how she deals with it. And how Oscar deals with having another human being under his constant responsibility. Relationships always change when kids are involved but communication is key, which Skye and Oscar seem to do well. Really liked the last scene with Maddy and Spencer. I get why Maddy is struggling. Sleeping with Spencer is a bit too soon though so i wonder what will happen. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Loved the Kyle/Tamara/Noah scene at the beginning Very cute. I agree with Red Ranger 1 that he needs any sort of answers, whether they are good or bad. The funeral for little Kyle was heartbreaking. Loved Health in particular. And liked the addition of Marilyn- it was quite spiritual what she said, lovely. Really upsetting they had paparazzi there. Poor Kyle So sad that he harmed himself with the bleach Glad Tamara was there even if he didn't want to be around her much afterwards. I really get why he had to leave, be left alone (besides Nate). I hope he doesn't crash the car on the way I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Liked the arrival of the baby girl Glad Maddy had Roo and Oscar's support. Spencer and Skye's chat was great Oscar seems to be really enjoying things so far (even though it is still very early days), so i wonder what he will think of Maddy's decision. I really liked the way the last scene was written, with Maddy coming to the decision after spending some time with the baby and Roos offering some support and guidance. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! I really get why people are worried about Kyle, and worried about how he will react to people treating him differently. But they have to let Kyle make his own choices. His moods would understandably go up and down so i think it's best for his loved ones just to roll with it and be there for him when he needs it. 'No-one would have missed me if they’d killed me instead'- This was really sad. What a heartbreaking situation for Kyle to deal with, and Health. Wonderful emotive writing as usual. Really liked Health being there for him, and the addition of Josh was great too. None of them are biologically related but they are brothers to Kyle in the only way that matters. Lovely scene. And what Kyle saw as a child was absolutely horrendous. I don't blame Kyle for breaking down. If i was Josh or Health i would be uncomfortable too . I hope the funeral helps bring a bit of closure. Hunter and VJ Appreciated the mention of Denny after VJ's callous and plainly offensive remarks. Both VJ and Hunter should know better. It's obvious that what Kyle is going through (and has been through) has affected Josh so I'm glad he stood up. Too bad Hunter and VJ are too young and immature to listen properly. What Josh said was true- our parents bring us up so we think they are telling the truth about everything. We believe what what we are brought up in to be the truth. And i liked the points he made about him not knowing Casey was his brother, and Hunter not knowing Zac- to bad Hunter's to immature to care. Also liked the brief addition of Oscar As well as Zac, Leah and everyone else at the house. I wonder why Phoebe was being nosey... Josh should tell Health- but does he actually know about the role Phoebe played so far? I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! It's so nice that David and Jenny are back. Great scene when they arrived and beforehand- Heath shouldn't be embarrassed by cleaning Glad David and Jenny like Tamara and little Noah. Very much like how Kyle referred to them as grandparents to Noah Hopefully they stay and can continue to help Kyle-even just being there is helping him. There are no words to describe Phoebe adequately. Besides despicable. She knows what she has done is wrong yet she continues to behave this way. Now she has lost everything. I wonder what you have got install for her. No one wants her around. And now Heath has to bury his little brother Someone he never got the chance to meet. I get why Heath is unsure of it all and how the subject is touchy with the Kyle he knows and calls his brother. What a tough situation for everyone. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Poor Kyle... Glad he has got Heath and Tamara to support him through this. Very powerful writing once again. Glad he realized self-harming wasn't going to help. Hopefully seeing David and Jenny will help And as you have said above, now he has to go through the trial which is another thing altogether-waiting and hoping they are put away for a very very long time. It will be a while until Kyle feels better or back to normal, if ever. Because his whole identity has changed, if he doesn't work out where he comes from, I'm afraid he won't feel at peace. The question of who he is as well as what has happened to him will hang over him for the rest of his life, but he needs to find a healthy way to deal with it. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter Glad Oscar and Skye are still going strong. Their relationship will change when the baby comes though, so i wonder how they will cope. Nice to see Spencer back. It must be great for Maddy to have him there. I look forward to the baby coming

Great chapter! I still don't have much sympathy for Kat- she seems to be very naive for a cop. And i think she deserves the punishment. I think she needs to find something other than alcohol to drown her sorrows. Behaving like that isn't going to help her get her job back, in fact it will probably do the opposite. But I'm not surprised she worked out i was Phoebe. Glad Ash was honest with Kyle and told him it was Phoebe. Must be so hard for Kyle to come to terms with what she has done- she was his everything once so it must hurt so much more than any random person or Kat. I don't expect him to forgive Phoebe at all- too much has happened because of her, she has caused too much pain. I do wonder what she is going to do next though- i don't think living with Kat is going to work out... I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Well with Matt gone maybe things will be easier between Oscar and Maddy now. I like the idea that he is going on tour with Phoebe. Liked the Matt and Leah moment, as well as Skye and Irene's chat. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Loved 'Kyle' and Tamara's talk at the beginning. "I love you Mr Someone" was so cute. Like how the smell of lavender evoked memories of 'Mr Someone's' mother So Phoebe seems to have gone well and truly of the deep end.. She really shouldn't be prepared to ruin 'Kyle's' life anymore than she already has so I'm glad she realizes this. But she is prepared for Ash to take the fall for her. I do feel a bit sorry for her in regards to making 'Kyle's' life worse, but she needs to own up to her mistakes before she's in too deep with lies.. I wonder what will happen to Kat. And what Ash will do. Brilliant writing as usual. You are somehow making me feel for Phoebe even though she is behaving terribly. And i feel a bit sorry for Ash too and that never happens on the show I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Thought you might go down the Matt/Evie route. Like Ludub i don't mind them together but maybe they moved a bit fast... At least Maddy seems to know where she stands now. I look forward to more, update soon

Great chapter! Well Phoebe continues to not see her own vileness. I actually kinda feel bad for her, because she wouldn't have wanted Kyle to be implicated at all and she did get cheated on. She also seems oblivious to what a terrible person she is sometimes... But she did a terrible thing and i hope everyone finds out. Somehow though i don't feel that sorry for Ash or Kat. Maybe that's just my dislike of them maybe i actually want repercussions from the cops because i think Kat needs to learn how to act more appropriately. Whatever happens though, i think Phoebe and Kat's friendship is probably over. As is Kyle and Phoebe's... I do feel very bad for poor Kyle. I understand him hating Kat because if she didn't push for information and leave her laptop lying around then he wouldn't be where he is now. But blame also goes to Phoebe, who told Ash who told Kat... Beautiful scene of Kyle and Noah It was also great to see other characters like Irene and Chris. And Leah is pregnant

Great chapter! Oh dear.. looks like Phoebe 'lost' Kat's laptop? Perhaps to get her in trouble with her senior officers. But now Kyle is going to pay the ultimate price Poor 'Kyle'. The letter from Jenny and David was beautiful. I get why he is hesitant about seeing them again after what has happened. Kyle feels guilty for leaving them after everything they did for them They should come and meet their 'grandchild'. Perhaps they will have a way of making 'Kyle' feel better. I think Health and Tamara are right to tell Josh what's going on so that he and Evie know what is going on and can make 'Kyle's' transition back home a bit easier. I look forward to more, update soon
