  1. A sad train wreck of a relationship slowly, inevitably crawls to its conclusion. Jason sums it up: But he felt torn between his love for me and his love for a better life without me in it. Upon hearing those words from him tore me apart. I was keeping him trapped in this cycle, preventing him from letting go. At least he developed enough self-awareness to see how destructive they were together and the courage to call a time of death. A beautiful piece of writing.

    Chapter 3

    Already high stakes are pushed up a bit. I assume that if the guys at the dam are alert to deer wandering around their perimeter, a transport plain dropping stuff in a nearby lake would pique their curiosity.
  3. Åke is so wonderfully naive still! This exchange perfectly sums up their relationship, and he just doesn't seem to grasp it: ‘Come on, Ocky, don’t get so excited. We aren’t lovers. We are chess friends.’ ‘Chess and fuck friends, you mean.’ ‘Sort of. Still it doesn’t make us a couple.’ Kevin got up. ‘I’m going to take a shower.’ Kevin, on the other hand, knows exactly what is going on: ‘Yes, I also accept it’s a draw between me and your Dutch chess friend.’ It was a most extraordinary thing for Kevin to say, Åke thought.
  4. Watching this relationship lurch to a halt by drips and drops is so tragic.

    Yea! Road trip! Let's stock up on snacks and buckle up. Who has the playlist queued?
  7. Just when we think it is safe to go into the water, Konstantin always seems to show up again. Another great chapter!

    Chapter 1

    Great chapter. I can see why Alex can tell the helicopter doesn't have lights on, but how can he tell the transponder is turned off?

    Prologue

    A terse and ominous opening to this story. Well done!

    Chapter 4

    I think you are onto something there.
  12. The pacing, atmosphere, and dialogue are deftly handled. It balances action, horror, and intimacy with precision. Great chapter.
  13. Very promising! The story reads like a legend retold, part myth, part prophecy, anchored by themes of power, sacrifice, and cyclical corruption. It blends epic fantasy with intimate emotional moments, managing to feel both sweeping and personal. Its tone is reminiscent George R.R. Martin’s moral grayness, with a touch of dark Gothic romanticism.
  14. A gorgeous tale about a love letter made of shared music. Well written and wonderfully nostalgic.

  15. An achingly beautiful story of finding the love that has been within reach all along revealed through carefully curated playlists. I want to to go back and listen to all these tracks again now! But who recorded the pivotal acoustic cover of "MMMBop"? Or is that just poetic license?
  16. On my way. What's on the menu?
  17. Great chapter, absolutely heartbreaking.
  18. A very moving story about extremely focused faith and how an abused son found relief through the compassion of neighbors and an unlikely canine rescuer. Well written.

    Chapter 7

    Great story!
  20. This chapter went from one weird but effective scene to another. Very compelling. I'll miss these guys when the story is completed.

    Chapter 6

    Another powerful chapter, but isn't there an emergency vet in this town? Poor doggo suffering with untreated broken ribs!
  22. Wow! That was an intense chapter. It was a nice surprise to see the "stupid things" was showing a little backbone.

    Chapter 5

    Powerful chapter.

    Chapter 4

    My dog is very unhappy with this chapter because I keep grabbing her and sniveling in her fur while she is trying to get her nap on. Her message to the author: Get the mutt healthy ASAP so she can get her beauty sleep. Thank you.
  25. I am enjoying this story so much, but Åke and Matthijs are such frustrating characters. And Kevin is not much better! Can't wait for the next chapter!
