So Lizzie's ability is due to an experiment?
Gabby and her are spies or something?

More or less, yes. Elizabeth's abilities are due to a government experiment that went wrong, and she basically put Gabby in the same situation (on purpose... maybe she felt it was Gabby's fault?). Now, as for them being spies... it's not quite that simple. There's something bigger at hand than just that. Think about it... they have all of this information that they can use, and they kind of handle it in different purposes, with different ethical standpoints on the same situations. I also think it's important to point out that their NAMES are important. Where do we find similar names? Hmmmm...

I know that gabriel is a very biblical name... that was always obvious but wait... are you trying to say that gabby and lizzie are related??? oh wait that was mary... lol I'm trying to work out what gypsy lizzie has to do with saint lizzie... I'm not very good with biblical so ithe slates a bit blank right now... you know, I'm glad you did this story, the way you write is rather inspiring  as well as the things you write with me, I was never very good with realistic writing, the story i posted on sims2community (can't go on) is proof of that, because even though that has a hint of fantasy, it focuses mainly on the reality, and its not very good right now I'm try to work out how to make one of my characters (a vampire) fall for this human girl in a book I'm writing, not much happening right now, but I don't think he even realises he's in love with her until chapter 6 or 7, and I'm on chapter 5 so I've got some time think it out yet |

Bible:
Elizabeth and her husband Zechariah were good people, but had no children. Zechariah was visited by the angel Gabriel, who told him his wife would have a son who "will be great in the sight of the Lord."
WCC:
Elizabeth/Gabby/Jack love triangle. Because Gabby is unable to have kids, Elizabeth and Jack end up getting hitched. E and J end up having two kids, Gracie (maybe named after Gabby, whose birth name was Grace Agnes?) and Cherry (nickname? real name?).
So, kind of a switch-up on the Bible story.

Same as Elizabeth's (it's implied), only she's not using it to make money. Rather, as Elizabeth very strongly suggests, Gabby's using her knowledge to PREVENT stuff from happening. (Thus, their discussion about how someone was supposed to die near the beginning of the school year, but didn't because Gabby apparently did something to keep it from happening).

Was it Ophelia? Who was supposed to die - I mean, the whole scars on her arms thing...

The scars were from her cat. (I think she said that in one of the early chapters) Some cats will freak out if startled, and if you're holding the cat when there's an unexpected loud noise... ouch. Trust me, I know from experience.

ahhh I do know that... sort of, I have two scars from my nans cat when he went over me (he was a fairly heavy cat), but thta hardly counts as freaking out... I think it happened to me bona fide (ely) but I don't remember it...
So who was the one who was supposed to die? Emily?
Being treated the way she was because she was clever, can get you pretty depressed, i would know (except it was only because I was different - Aspie kid - but at the time I didn't know that, I was just different)

The cat thing actually did happen to me... big, long scratches on my lower arm. Fun trying to explain that one to concerned teachers. But, yes, as you've deduced by now, Emily was the one who was supposed to die at the beginning of the year (but, presumably, did not because she was recruited to be part of CNC and became friends with Ophelia).

I'm glad she did...
You know, it'd be so funny if you did a chapter where it's April fools day and Ophelia decides to polar and dress like the popular hypocrite people at her school, just for that day... and it'd be interesting to see what she'd look like... Emily could do it with her... and they could not tell anyone, keep it a surprise and freak everyone out at school...
Hmmm did Emily go anorexic for a bit after the party???

I actually considered doing an "Opposite Day" chapter, but thought it might be a bit too cliche. Plus, I think Ophelia would want to beat herself unconscious after about 10 minutes of it.
As for the Emily thing... well... I'll leave that up in the air. Everything you need to know is in the story. It's just a matter of putting the pieces together and maybe doing a little research of your own.

She probably would...
Yeah, but the thing that gave me the idea of anorexia was that her previous choice of food was similar to what my sis might eat when she was going through that - she'd also have a ton of coke to make herself full up

Just for you, I'll take some "Opposite Day" shots and put them on here, when I have some time.
And what do you mean about the food, exactly?

Thanks XD ^_^
well Louie was commenting that she was finally having some real food for once, that just made me think, all that stuff she put back in the kitchen was a little confusing though

All of the stuff has something in common. I did some pretty intensive research to get a feel for what kind of items she'd be putting back, so those aren't arbitrary items.
