Sophie Turner is hilarious. I can see her as Zanie.

Ah, okay, I kept picturing an Amazonian Brigitte Nielsen type. The 1980's really liked big athletic blondes with big fake boobs and that's where I was going with the idea for Travis's mother- someone who just looks like she belongs in the 80's and drag queens would totally dress up as. Zoe Lucker a British soap diva? She's definitely got the trashy glam right. Maybe Joely Richardson? I was so into Nip/Tuck. This one's actually surprisingly hard to brainstorm because British actresses often have this well-bred, classy look to them, especially the ones that are still acting after their 30's.

I’m not seeing this one. I think she’s more svelte

Hannah Waddingham from Ted Lasso as Travis's Eurotrash mother? She just kind of has that larger than life vibe I was picturing. The fake tan and bleached hair also track with what I was picturing. Like you could have just pictured her being a model in the 80's and leading some weird, glamorous life before (somewhat) settling down.

Hero Fiennes Tiffin as poor, doomed Kevin/Sergio?

Anyone else think maybe Travis’ father may have a hand in this? Maybe I haven’t read enough back story or I don’t remember, but Zach has never gotten physical with Will. Seems strange. Can’t wait for the next chapter!

I agree Zach was out of control and Will can no longer trust him.I think Will is wise to keep his distance, but I expect more is going on with Zach than we know…however that doesn’t excuse his physical assault.

I was wrong--I said in part--'-I think it is 40-60 that Zach will blow up and walk away from Will for a long while. He will still have Travis to fuck and they are living close by each other" I did not go far enough about the impact of Zach's blow up. Zach really blew up and acted out badly in a jealous rage. He hurt Will which I did not expect. He now makes Will not feel safe around him. Will does want to be abused by Zach anymore, He has known Zach act aggressively like this to others, but not to him. He did not see any feeling of love in Zach--no disappointment . Zach was a jealous fool who carelessly did not listen or restrain himself. He knew best and Will was wrong by showing him up with his girl and boy. Zach lost a good friend who stood by him and who could have helped him as his career progresses. When Travis sees the injured Will he may decide to give up Zach. too. Travis does not need this drama or potential abuse.

Chapter 54 -When Will and Zach break up in a pretty final, definite way. "With Or Without You" by U2 -When Will ruminates over his breakup with Zach while jogging around Malibu. "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac -When Will checks out the damage from his fight with Zach, and later tells Stefan about the fight. "It Never Rains in Southern California" by Albert Hammond

A combination of 1 and 5. I see Will wanting to get with the two guys he values the relationships with. While Travis appears to be the obvious choice once his father is taken care of it may need to stay that way for Zach. If Zach has to find a new outlet for release it could open a whole can of worms and issues for him. I see Will having the threesome and seeing that Zach and Travis are fine remaining friends with benefits but he gets to participate too every now and then.

Sadly, I agree. But it’s in mr A’s hands……. In Poor Man’s Son you can see the twisted creature that he is.

I've got a feeling we might see evil Zach again.

He walked out of my room and I watched him go. He was an evil guy, the kind of guy that would do whatever it took to get what he wanted poor Man’s Son chp 27 ………

Chapter 53 -When Will and Travis drive along the Pacific Coast Highway and talk about how to get back at Mr. Buck. "Horse With No Name" by America -When Will and Stefan talk about (what else?) boy trouble. "Two Lovers" by Mary Wells -When Will approaches Zach, who's sleeping. "Lonely People" by America

I feel certain that my idea of plot twist number 6 has taken hold. I can sense you feverishly rewriting the upcoming chapters to ensure the right amount of sadness and joy that both the story characters and your readers will feel at Zach's death...

You guys are so much fun! Loving your thoughts!

Way too much collateral damage...

I don’t hate Zack. I just won’t be upset if a 10 megaton nuclear explosion vaporized him.

Daddydavek I really like your idea of Will Having Jake investigate Curtis Buck. I am also sure he did not just fuck one underage girl. He can blackmail Curtis and get him to stop spying on his kids and fucking young girls. Anyway for Jake to castrate him since he is a sexual predator? Will and Jake can do this on their own. Travis does not have toknow.

For now I expect a mix of #1 and #5, however that isn't going to really resolve anything for Will....He wants to nail Travis' dad to the wall and publicly shame Mr. Morals Clause. As usual he won't want to put the poor underage girl through the shame of a public trial so he wil have to get Jake to investigate Travis' dad and find his other victims of his unquestionable lack of morals.
