Well said, Mike. Unfortunately an obvious oversight on society's part...one that hopefully will be corrected sometime soon!

LOL never...I still don't believe my drivers license..28? NO WAY! When did that happen? Glad you had a good birthday!

Wow, this story has definitely set off some intense conversations. I thought I would check it out since I had seen so much chatter about it. Reading it all tonight at one time was super easy. The continuity in the story is awesome. No big opinions on the story or characters other than I really liked it/them and look forward to more. Plus the happily ever after that was mentioned. PS..One critisism..I feel like I need a damn who's with who chart sometimes, so many names, so many relationships..how people are related to each other. Maybe it's just because I stayed up all night reading but I really had to work at remembering that. Maybe there could be some sort of guide for losers like me who can't keep names straight, even in real life?

Well isn't this a case of a bigot being burned by their own rhetoric? Too right, too funny and thanks for sharing, JF! Cia

Read it..loved it...Can't wait for future chapters. Adam is one bad dom, he has so far twisted a healthy dom/sub relationship that isn't even funny. It's very interesting, you began the story calling Nye "the boy" but at 21 he is trying to insist that he is very much the man. I know that "boy" is a typical sub title but don't feel that is what is being implied here. He certainly seems very much the abused person role rather than a contented sub that he is trying very hard to play. I can't wait to read the chapter where he goes home, especially if Adam is with him. I can see a showdown between him and Kane being very very revealing.. Only complaint..if I didn't know better I would take the acts of mainstream bdsm to be cast in a negative light in this story. I know a bit about the lifestyle, Adam is certainly not a sane or at all like a responsible dom should be. Knowing you, Neph, I know that can't be the only way the story will go..I only hope that a healthy bdsm lifestyle might come into the storyline sometime. Thanks for the story, I won't say it is 'good', hee hee, but is certainly gripping and enthralling... Cia Edit after your response to my review: It wasn't the graphic nature of the scene itself that was close to the line...the difficulty for me wasn't the "action" it was the relationship that was sooo twisted between Nye and Adam that made what occured during the session so questionable. A healthy dom/sub relationship with lots of playtime doesn't bother me one bit to read.... Just didn't want you to think I was thinking it was over the the line for posting. Hope that came out understandable, I don't want to speak too explicitly and ruin it for someone who might not have read it yet.

Well, we already talked about this, lol. But just wanted to post my appreciation again for you adding another chapter! Thanks!!

It's so funny, I never really thought about this before. I always seem to have a favorite character to love that isn't the main character and a favorite villian by the end of Chapter 1 in your stories. With the possible exception of Dangerous Liasons of couse, the villian takes a while to appear in that story. Your characters are so vivid, it is so easy to love or hate them. I can't wait for the next chapter of Weeping Lily of course, I am sure I am going to love hating Siona very much!! Thanks for another great story and I look forward to seeing your future stories as well! Cia

LOL, I am NOT a text whore..Can't stand it really.... However....shameful downward gaze...I am a chat whore... Can't go without it...need it several times a day....skin gets itchy with just a few hours break.... Think I can join your support group anyway??

Happy Birthday!!! Warm Wishes on another year!!

"That is just wrong, lol"....was sarcastic...not serious...not trying to make a point with my comments...just sharing the funny. In my own not so clear way.

That is just wrong, lol. My son loves to play with his sister's dress up stuff. My husband has even had to help him put on the princess heels a time or two. Of course this is the 6' man who hunkered down and played tea party with his 3 year old daughter on Christmas. Who cares? However, Xander is a boys' boy too. He is going to be Bumbleebee the Transformer. As Xander likes to say...Transformers, roll out!! Halloween is for fun, even if he wanted to be Ariel....

My dad was a butter-aholic. Big giant cubes of it...It makes everything better, especially pan-toast and pancakes. I always bake with butter. And recipes that call for just shortening? I don't even think so!! That is even worse than margarine!

LOL, sure you do Linxe...after all you're the reason Micah can be such a snit....You could maybe give him a little nudge...ya know....Well maybe not. I guess Michah will do as he will do....At least it makes for great reading!!! Poor Patrick will just have to suffer, sigh

C'mon Paya.....see it's a nice cookie.....it doesn't hurt to come to the dark side....not much anyway......

I'm mainly straight..I am a woman who likes men...really likes them. But I liked girls growing up too, enough to appreciate looking at them, even today and doing some "experimenting" before I was in my dating/marriage to my husband in my teens. It is totally reasonable to be able to be attracted to one sex, even if you normally gravitate towards the other one. I believe you love who you love, sometimes even when it makes no sense at all. It should never be passed by because it doesn't fit in with a label you or someone else has given you. That being said, I remember those first relationships..most of them are pretty tame as teenagers, they seem to tend to be more emotional than physical for the most part. I agree with Napervic, even if you weren't in a physical relationship, you were in an emotional one, and your "girlfriend" and best friend betrayed that. That is bound to be hurtful, no matter what, especially if this was your first. And, as to the drink...I still remember why I drank Dr. Pepper for years each time I have one...my first crush then boyfriend influenced my choice since he loved them and that was all he drank. The relationship ended when he "cheated" one me, very hurtful even at a young age since it was my first relationship. I still remember him, his likes, dislikes, things he did..and this is 15 years later...emotional wounds are the hardest to forget.. Hang in there..hopefully some of the answers on here make you feel less alone with this issue...

You probably dreamed of a magical courtroom on trial for making polls that no one wants to answer, but for some reason always end up doing so anyway....hmmm fun kinky mind control, anyone?? Of course, you'd have a good defense lawyer, Nephylim....

My five year old says, "See Mommy, this is how it is SUPPOSED to work!"

Oh, Nephy, that is easy...You dreamed of teacups and grapefruit...taking a nice juicy bite over and over and over For those thinking for me, word to the wise, I only slept 2 hours last night..better be a compact dream

lol....

LOL, Holiday entertainment at it's finest.....

I don't care who confesses first, I just want some kissing!!!!! I know that they both seem to have extrovert personalities but somehow Luca seems to come across as definitely the more reserved and mature of the two. Case definitely seems more the drama queen, though that is not applied in any way, shape or form towards his breakdown about his brother. I just want Luca to go nuts or something, I sense a huge well of passion hiding deep down in him... Easy read, humorous bits, tension, emotion....this story has it all, except the KISSING! Git to writing Camilo!!! Cia

I have to echo Nephylim, I tend to gloss over technical details in stories if it doesn't apply instrinsically to what is happening in the now. I appreciate knowing the how and why's of his blindness but as the condition appears to have progressed as far as it will affect him, ie... his blindness.. I just forgot about it. It did help that the story focuses less on his blindness than what he does with/because of it. As you said, evolving with it. However, if you have intimate experience with a subject I can see that unfortunate techincial misinformation in a story could detract for the reader, it sounds as if this is a subject Altimexis is familar with prior to reading your story. However, for the average reader the story is great as it is. I have been fortunate to have never experienced a permanent disability that is so all encompassing, however, I have spent a few years temorarily disabled. It is a sobering experience when something physical with your body going "wrong" so greatly affects your life. I remember the times when I was struggling and got stares and comments instead of help as well as the times when friends or even perfect strangers really went above and beyond the call of duty... Bad experiences unfortunately do happen, how we deal with them is up to us. I like that Zeek is standing up for himself to the school and the bullies, even while relying on his friend to care for him as hard as that can be. Whew..well..long post short..(I like to ramble ) I can't wait to read the next chapter. OH, and I eagerly await a "storm" scene...you made it sound soooo hot!! Thanks for a great story!! Cia

I like how accepting you guys are. I wouldn't say that I am a completely "straight" woman, I like to read playboy and I go to strip clubs with my husband..but I am married and do have kids. It's been a long time since I did anything with anyone other than my husband, though, I mostly just consider myself monogamous to the one I ended up with. It was never a foregone conclusion that it would be a guy..just mostly. I have been welcomed, included and appreciated for myself by pretty much everyone I have talked to. Plus, I like reading all types of erotic fiction, straight, bi or gay..I am not made to feel weird here for being that way. I don't really believe in labeling myself or others one way or the other either. I guess for the most part, you "gay guys", facing discrimination a lot yourselves, just are more including/accepting...it's appreciated. Just my own viewpoint, hope it answers a least some of your question... Cia

Good for you. I hope all goes well during your talk. You know you can always chat it out or pm me if ya need to vent... Fingers crossed Cia

LOL, sorry for the confusion on my old avatar. I love the black and white photo, they are so bold. And yours says it all!
