In some ways I see it as similar to Michael's guilt... he'll handle it, but he won't ever forget it... I see Liam getting him over that hump in the same kind of way that Kendall did... lot of talking and reassurance... guilt does recede. It just needs absolution... Liam could milk it, but I don't think he would... I don't know what you have planned, but I have a good read of your characters... and you always stay true to them

I can see that.  Michael felt guilty for not owning up to his feelings over the years and Alek feels guilty for making Liam fee anything less than the most important thing in his life.  I foresee some conversations in their future

OMG!  We're actually discussing the story and not on a tangent? Has the world ended?  

 

Hehe, on a serious note, @LitLover and @Headstall I enjoyed your discussion on Alek. I think Alek will carry that guilt with him for a very long time, even after Alek and Liam fully repair their relationship (romantic or otherwise).

 

Michael was a clueless dumbass but didn't do anything deliberately. Alek took actions that hurt Liam, he chose to make Liam feel like a dirty little secret.

 

It will be/should be much harder for Alek than it was Michael. You can hear it in every second sentence he utters.

@Drew Espinosa I believe the phrase you are looking for is "Bloody Authors"

That's why Gary said "in some ways..."

I don't have the Aussie accent to pull it off.

Great point, B. Alek tried to have it all, and he was selfish. I don't think he had the guts to face what he was doing... he chose to keep them on a narrow pathway... and you're right... now he's faced it, and the guilt is constantly on display. He's lucky Liam didn't stop loving him, and is the kind of man who can forgive. Lots can't.

There was a Bay Area Curling contingent in the San Francisco Pride Parade today! Must be a bunch of confused Canadians…

 

…and yes, the contingent is about the Olympic sport, not weightlifting or hairdressing tools. One of the participants had one of those brooms/mop things that he was pretending to sweep with.

We Canadians are a wily lot. So well regarded that we can slip through border security with curling brooms in hand and no one bats an eyelash  

 

On a side note, have you ever tried to lift one of those curling stones?  They're heavy. Good thing they slide easily

Why do I have the feeling I haven't commented on the last chapter?   or am I even further behind?   

I hope you can be patient, LL: because I should be finishing my prompt chapter before Friday.

I noticed you didn’t mention which Friday. It could be a couple days from now. Or a week and a half. Or next month…  ;-)

I'm using the current prompt, so it has to be before this Friday.   But otherwise you're right

I'm pretty sure you commented, but I don't think I've replied yet.  And even if you didn't, I can be patient for Rob

So you're sneaking out a Choices chapter without saying anything?  Did you think we wouldn't notice?  

I've read and liked, and will be back to comment once my headache fades.

It’s there. I commented. I expect to be the only one who feels the way I do.

You did, but you normally announce it here. That's what I was trying to imply.

Okay I can't type.  I meant I thought I commented that I'd posted the new chapter.   Sigh. My typing and reading skills today are terrible.

You’ve strongly implied it, but you haven’t actually announced it yet…  [ducks after teasing the author!]
