Reconciliation Cast List

'Reconciliation' is fanfiction based upon the fanficitons 'Human Interest' and 'Two Crows Joy' pieces which were/are written/being written by MadLori. Those series are based upon the movie/story 'Brokeback Mountain' and create a rich AU of what would have happened Jack and Ennis had built that sweet life together of which Jack always dreamed in Farmingdale, Vermont.

So some of the characters herein belong to Annie Proulx and others to Lori Summers and some just wandered out of my head. This story starts about two years before 'Human Interest' and due to the events in this story people and events in those stories would be different. (which means that while Lori is more than welcome to have her way with any of the OCs in this, events/people here will not be influencing or altering anything she plans in that world)

Eventually this will be posted on my site http://wordsmith.populli.net/ but is not there now… nor will it be until it is finished and cleaned up.

This is completed (I think) as of chapter 17



BBM is from Brokeback Mountain, HI – means the character was from the series Human Interest of which Reconciliation is a fanfiction. Reconciliation is an AU and will not impact events or people in 'Human Interest' or 'Two Crows Joy'. Some of the characters in Human Interest (mainly the one who are named Twist or DelMar) were created by Annie Prolix in Brokeback Mountain which was the original work which spawned Human Interest.

Bobby Twist – BBM – Son of Jack and Lureen, the cusp that changed the story to AU. Bobby is, in this world, sent from Childress, Texas to live with his father in Farmingdale, Vermont. In the world of 'Human Interest' he stayed in Texas and after a regrettable love affair committed suicide in his senior year of high school. In Texas he was on his own a great deal, in Vermont he has a father who works from his home and keeps a close eye on him. I guarantee he will not be committing suicide in this AU. Called R.J since moving to Farmingdale by everyone but family (we suspect Merc was responsible for that).

Jack Twist – BBM – rancher, born in Lightening Flats, Wyoming now resides in Farmingdale Vermont, father of Bobby and the love of Ennis DelMar's life.

Ennis DelMar– BBM – rancher, born in Riverton Wyoming now resides in Farmingdale Vermont, father Junior and Francie and the love of Jack Twist's life.

Junior DelMar – BBM – Ennis' daughter, Francie's older sister, Merc's girlfriend. Junior is Bobby's age and they call each other Marsha and Greg. She lives in Riverton with Alma and Monroe.

Francie DelMar – BBM – Ennis' daughter, Junior's younger sister. Does not like being called Jan, but she is neurotic. She lives in Riverton with Alma and Monroe.

Hermes (Merc) Owens – Bobby's best friend, plays guitar in Bobby's band, four months older than Bobby, blond, brash, belligerent and many other words beginning with 'B'. Junior's boyfriend (he lives in Vermont, she lives in Wyoming, its sort of an on paper romance… since his mom saw the phone bill) He developed cancer at the age of four but thanks to surgery, drugs and radiation is now healthy. Farmingdale native.

Hephaestus (Heph) Owens – Merc's older brother (almost 10 full months- they were still in the honeymoon period) according to Merc he can fix anything, do anything, or make anything. Heph moves from having a crush on Jack to dating Jake – not all the slips are Freudian. He gives Bobby his second kiss from a guy, the only one not motivated by revenge. Farmingdale native.

Cool. Thanks, I'm waiting to read this in one fell swoop. WIPs and me, not so good. It's a wonder I'm keeping up with HI.

Also, like seasonal, don't want to be a stickler, but, Ennis was born and raised in Sage, WY., not Riverton.
