Brandon Smiling, Book 2 is complete.

Please enjoy the final chapters: 43-50

Thanks to those who have stuck with me through this particular book. It was a challenge. My thanks to the late Comicality for all his support. He will be dearly, dearly missed!

If you ever wanted to branch out from Billy and Brandon: I don't know if it's possible or appropriate for someone to write Ariel and Tyler (from New Kid and Angel) out of the anxiety mess that Ariel's in on that terrible Monday, but if there's someone for it, it's probably you @MrM .

They deserve the relief, but maybe it's not true to Ariel's character that he ever gets relief.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, @Mattyboy. However, I’m up in the air about how to do a fan addition to any of Comsie’s stories. It’s a tall order to follow up on any of his stories! His voice was so unique. As I continue reviewing his archive, I become more and more sure of this.

I’ll keep it in mind, though. I’d love to see how many of these stories end! ☺️

New Kid seems like it might have a proper ending, that girl that's been after Ryan but saw him dating Randy on Saturday outs them AND accepts them, and they proceed out and happy together. The last episodes seemed to be trending that way. Although time was dilating in that series, sort of. I think the last 30 or so episodes over the last decade are all in the extended Spring Break- it's almost as if it was narratively finished but the characters were still living.

Ariel seems more of a problem; his whole almost-supernatural kinetic discharge thing maybe is so part of him that he's just meant to be a pure embodiment of teen anxiety. One narrative path out of that problem: Tyler comes clean about Sam and Matt and tells him about his history with Randy, and then Ariel demands to catch up to Tyler's body count over a couple of really porny episodes. That'd be one of the natural conclusions to the narrative arc . . . but would it be corrupting the story's central idea? If you take away the crazypants bundle of nerves from Ariel, what'd be left ?

Comsie (who I'm sure you knew better than I did) seemed to be more interested in savoring the tension than in resolving it. So maybe it's right to just leave it poised where it is, sad as that may be.

Seeing how he’s finished some of his stories, particularly his short ones, I think Comsie did want to come to conclusions for all his stories. He just never got there unfortunately.

Yeah, I think kissed by an angel had one more drama part before it could conclude. The Tyler, Matt, and Sam angle would be a natural path for that just as you are referring to.

The one that seems to be getting the most requests for an ending is GFD. That one I believe Comsie had a definite ending for.

Two words: Vampire Dawn :[

Even if I wanted an ending bad enough to accept someone else's guess at what that would entail, I do know he teased his final plan but played that hand very close to the chest. Anything anyone else attempts would seriously just be a guess. Speculating could be fun but, I wanted to know his end game plan and just have to accept that ending just isn't going to come. 😔

I do agree if anyone could consider continuing any of his other work, It would be MrM and mainly because of his unique style of covering events from a different perspective. I honestly think if there was any way to continue any of Comsie's works, it would be as a sideline that is attached to the main story line. MrM has that down to an art form at this point and the best part in my opinion, Comsie absolutely loved what he was doing. Even the feeling of his work is familiar enough to feel like it's from the same world the main story evolved from, which to me loved because of how much they feel like part of the intended plan... I think of anyone, that's the man to help find closure for a story or two. Absolutely! (No pressure MrM 🤣)

Keep in mind, Comsie ALWAYS encouraged people to write, even if it was fan fiction based on his own work. Actually, he loved reading those especially I knew him and worked with him long enough to know he would be the first to encourage anyone who might be interested to write their own alternate endings to go for it so for him, my opinion is; sure, if someone wants to share their own continuation, as long as it is respectful and you are willing to accept that you are sharing a "possible" path for the story line, not a definitive one, then if he's still watching over these characters, he would absolutely give your work his blessing, and would have been glued to the screen reading it himself.

That is my two cents worth.... I take check, money order, cash, or reading material as payment. LOL! 💜

@JeffsFort, I have been reviewing GFD source material very closely and have some ideas where to go, but I want to research further. I have a feeling the Vampire Dawn is a metaphor for what Comsie preached in all his ‘scriptures’. Acceptance and understanding. I’ll continue to glean and pick up more clues.
