rjo Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 It's really too bad, this story is so good. If Brad and Matt do this, they will not be able to keep it secret. Stef will know, just looking at them. Once other people know Robbie will be distroyed and Wade will be hurt badly. I would hate to lose Wade I like him. Next the relationship with Jeanine and the kids could be damaged as well. If the family rejects Brad, I am worried what would happen. Could we end up with two more Jeff Hayes? Rejected bitter and died. It happened before. I know it always comes back to Jeff. He was the one who got JP to bring Isidore and Ace to the US, He help JP to buy the house in California. Without Isidore, no Ace, Claire, Billy and no Brad. Just lonely JP. If all this happens what would happen to Matt? Could this even break up JP and Stef. Would that be a great ending to the saga everybody sad lonely. At the last JP forced to sell and live in a nursing home.

Canuk Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 Thanks. That made me feel SO much better, Mark. Two years, man. Two frickin' years and nothing. Ugh. i pity the poor bastard that is going to break that drought!!!:snork: 1

Tiger Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 i pity the poor bastard that is going to break that drought!!!:snork: He'll just need to use lots of lube and open him up with his fingers, especially while sucking his dick. You just have to take your time.
methodwriter85 Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) Why are you assuming I'd be the bottom, Tiger? They used to call me "Top" back when I was a freshman. Okay, the nickname had nothing to do with sexual positions, but still. I've never actually bottomed before in my life. Now...back on topic. I don't think Wade would be hurt, but I do think Brad's sons would be, especially JJ, because he looks up to him. And because Darius and Will are protective of him, in turn they'd really grow to hate Matt as well. Matt would find himself without the brothers he's just gained.

rjo Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 And maybe without a Dad or two. That would truly be sad.

I think they'll be more pissed off at Brad to be honest. If it happens, they'll all come around eventually. Maybe something will happen like a car accident or something (some kind of life-threatening situation for one or more characters) that will bring everyone closer together.

gjtravel2a Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 A further rumination, it seems that Dec 3rd is becoming a virtual "VR day " that will potentially be commermorated in future chapters and episodes much like the old 'VE' and 'VJ' days from WWII. The question I wonder, and only time will tell is whether it will stand for: 1. Victory Over Robbie - Brad extracts sufficient revenge and Robbie falls into line and they live as happiely as ever before the next Great War to end all Wars (yes, this is mixing WWI and WWII phrases, but it is late on Sunday:rolleyes: ) 2. Victory From Robbie - Brad realizes he really can do much better and moves on to any number or group of options....all delectable 3. Victory by Robbie - Brad, in fit of guilt over effing Matt, crumples and lets Robbie set the boundaries of the relationship...and we know just how long that would last before the next big one. or again, some other unforseen combination, but it seems there shall be some form of victory coming with the hope it is not a hollow one for our man Brad! The coming chapters are greatly anticipated!
Hermetically Sealed Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Why no option for Victory for Both? Both realize their past mistakes, agree to be more open to each other and reach a mutually agreeable decision. If only one side 'wins', then neither honestly do.
gjtravel2a Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 While a VB day would be ideal, in my way of thinking...perhaps overly cynical...it is just that,an ideal. The level of pain and disruption does not lend itself as logically to a victory for both. It may develop into that, but I think that it would need to start with a more one-sided victory and then possibly mellow out overtime....
Conner Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 I'm not sure I can take much more of this. The solution of course is to post chapters 21 and 22 together...asap.

If we could get a cool dozen, we might even get more about Jeanine! But then the discovery over time can be fun as well. Lets just be thankful the Chapters are not monthly installments, that would be the killer....
Mark Arbour Posted August 23, 2010 Author Posted August 23, 2010 Well aren't you all a demanding lot? I'll send 21 to Joe shortly.
gjtravel2a Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 LOL, well, yes I suppose so.....but only ot the things we enjoy, eh? Looking forward to 21, thanks!

If it happens, they'll all come around eventually. Maybe something will happen like a car accident or something (some kind of life-threatening situation for one or more characters) that will bring everyone closer together. This is major TMI, but my problem has been that I'm the exact opposite of a one-minute guy. It's really hard for a guy to make me orgasm- I ended up having to fake them quite often, and then finishing myself off later. Quite frankly, I'm more embarrassed by that than I would be if I had a premature ejaculation problem. As for the brothers...it would be interesting to see how Matt would handle being rejected by his newfound brothers. It might make him think about how his actions have consequences, Maybe Will could get into a surfing accident. That could be interesting. JJ is also a first-cousin-two-times-removed from his own father. I think. It makes my brain hurt: Tonto is his grandmother via Bitty. Tonto is also the sister of his, uh, grand uncle (?) Jack Crampton, who is also his grandfather via Jim Crampton. I believe this gives him the ability to flex the fabric of space time. *makes a mental note to put that CAP family tree back into circulation and get the spreadsheets to Jeremy* Right. I'm hoping that when we get to about 2006 or so, JJ will get his own story. There's way too much for that guy to explore for us not to see him in his own story. And I just think he'll be fun to follow. JJ is so cheerful and resillient. Edited August 24, 2010 by methodwriter85
mmike1969 Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 ... not a single paragraph with a sex scene in it! I am disapointed! and Brandon needs to die a slow, painful death.. thanks for the chapter Mark
Mark Arbour Posted August 24, 2010 Author Posted August 24, 2010 ... not a single paragraph with a sex scene in it! I am disapointed! and Brandon needs to die a slow, painful death.. thanks for the chapter Mark Yep. Can't get laid all the time. Just like real life.
Mark Arbour Posted August 24, 2010 Author Posted August 24, 2010 Every once in a while, I write a line and crack myself up. There's got to be a term for that. Literary masturbation? Anyway, in this chapter, it was this one:
methodwriter85 Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) I like the redemption of Nick, and the reveal that Nick had backslid into being a jerk again because his marriage was on the rocks. It's pretty funny how a Rustbelt town two thousand miles away still has so much sway and pull on Brad, despite the fact that he hasn't live there since he was 5. I wonder if Brad's going to eventually get on board with saving Claremont. Edited August 24, 2010 by methodwriter85
Mark M Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Personaly i loved nicks humor at a joke....to bad it fell flat but it was funny! "why didnt u get him off?"

gjtravel2a Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 The Chapter had a nice feel to it in that it provided some great psychological insights and challenges and moved the story along quite nicely. With all the emotional drain that Robbie has been, it will be hard to see December 3rd as a hard decision date for positive resolution. Seems like Brad is maturing and stepping up nicely to his familial duties but that may also confirm that he is growing beyond what he had with Robbie. Thanks again for getting this to us!
