Oh snap, I tried to say happy birthday then I got busy at work - sooooo HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARA!!!! Hope it's a good one filled with lotsa music and happy times!!

Plastica - I wonder if that means I get to max out my plastic??

Thanks for the comments and your first post on GA too - thanks As you said, it is fiction and yeah we get to do what we want with it. I felt this was how it should go and it went. I also get that two people can see things two different way - just look at politics and how both sides spin things their own way. And as you pointed out - just because you can relate to it, doesn't mean everyone can. I'm good with that so long as people enjoyed it. Thanks for the three days to read it and glad you enjoyed it. Andy

Tim, -- -- yeah I agree the epilogue was not an epilogue - live and learn. This was my first story online and well yeah - it was a mistake. I'm about 40% done with the trial short story - bogged down in something but will hope to be on track to post in August - that has been my personal, internal goal. I don't think money will be an issue for Peter going forward - it's one of his issues he's working through. So if I ever return to these characters and this world, they'll have a different issue to work on. Thanks for reading and yeah I promise not to much up the ending in any other story again. -- -- Andy

Welcome and enjoy your stay - if you have questions about your story there is a section of the forum where you can ask for help, someone to beta read [read and give critical feed back] someone to edit or all the above. Or you could do what I did when I got here and latch on to someone(s) whose work you like and see if they'll help. That's how I found Anyta Jian and Frosty so don't be shy. Andy

Depends, how big is your bucket??

Batman, Wolverine and the Shadow - quite the cast of characters - does the gay brigade get to take on the even queen, complete with her pearls and heels? Mixed that tongue in cheek review was supposed to be a compliment - nice job and a question - what's next But it does seem like it's gonna be one kickin bachelor pad when Shade recovers from his exhaustion

Man you musta been not getting enough when you wrote this story - it's one racy sex scene after the next. Them supernaturals sure are a randy bunch So why do I feel we're seeing the formation of the Federation of sorts? Three different creatures bound together by lust and desire - taking on the bad evil forces of the Court.

Well that certainly was different now wasn't it? Not your twilight variety of Vamps and Wolves that's for sure. Funny how eager Kieper is to get ride of Garrett - hmm wonder if that would have anything to do with the Shade in the house?

Is enough ever really enough??

Things are moving along - err slowly on the next chapter. Not having the best time with it. It's more people oriented and I don't have the same feel for the people involved as I did before - I think I might cheat a bit and just have other characters talk about what happened later on. Not sure just yet, but I'm working on it. Promise.

Seems to me being the Lt in charge of the batteries was not a job one lived long to enjoy. But that makes sense as that is where the majority of the fighting takes place. Arguably I wasn't there but this fight seemed much easier than most of the others recently. It didn't seem like the Sabina really did much damage to Belvidera - though try telling that to Carslake right? Ah yes, what is up with Blanche and Captain Preston. That you have George not standing down and that Sabina surrendered so quickly tells me that perhaps there is more a foot and that the surrender was to keep Belvidera right where it is now and not go off to find the other frigate. But - my prognostication skills were never the best.

Ohhh I get to be the first - after Cia of course - to say: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Chapter 12 is up. The answer to why Gar/Will is toying with/keeping in contact with Det. Griffin is revealed. Though I don't actually say it, the answer is there, promise.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RENEE!!! Hope it's fun and you have a great day! [but since you said you were going camping, I'm sure you did/will/are ]

Nice little cliffy there Lugh - better offer??? Hmm I wonder who could have made that - **runs fast to go back and read 'It Was A Holy Day.'** 100 Quatloos on Jozet

Thanks so much for reading and all the reviews. I appreciated hearing your feedback. One of the greatest things about on line posting is the feedback and reading what people think. It was always so great seeing how different people got different things from the chapters. How they interpreting things, sometimes in ways I didn't mean but that were helpful to the story. So that's for being a part of that for me. -- -- Andy

I toyed with doing a bit more with Jason after the break but there is only so much you can do or write or say. Yeah this one - chapter - was hard and fun and sad to write all at once. BUT it's the ending I wanted for them - for now

Not sure he means it, but he also doesn't or wasn't or isn't coping with things right and the only thing or person he has total control over - in his mind - is Jason. While he might not mean to be the way he is, he still recognizes that Jason loves him and well, he's using that. Let's hope he figures it out BEFORE the damage is irrevocable.

It's true on both counts, I was trying to show without just saying it - how the attack affected him. Jason still loves him deeply but he put up with things he probably shouldn't which as we know only makes it worse. It's hard to comment more right now as the entire story is up but for those who read this and HAVEN'T read the ending, I'll just pretend the end isn't posted and say, you'll need to read on to find out more

One would thing that the outburst is a sign of bigger unresolved issues. Peter's refusal to get counseling, to acknowledge there is a problem stemming from the accident is not helping their time together. Hopefully the end will feel right too. Thanks for the comments.

Not just his own relationship - his whole family. In part Royce didn't put Jason's relationship on par with the family's needs. I guess it's hard to consider your twenty y.o. son's relationship as anything more than a college thing and that the needs of the family take precedence over that - even if it is Jason's first love. Yeah Barbara is doing a good job of screwing up everyone - including herself.

Funny but I forget what's in some of the chapters until I see the review and then have to go back to the chapter - what I though was the best part of the chapter was how half asleep Peter pulls off the towel and tells Jason's he's ready for bed. Guess that's just the horn dog in me

GURGLE. Not many superheroes have a gut. Smooth, hairless, bulging muscles, yes. But no gut. And if they did have one, they'd be way too cool to do anything remotely lame as to name it. But my gut was the proud effort of two beers every night for ten years, then three for the last eight, after 206 failed attempts to off myself. The bulge was a comfort—something that kept me in the realm of the 'normal'. I slapped my belly, PAT-A-PAT-PAT. "Ready for another one, Master L?" I cracked open an

I saw that hug David is likely to have at least one other 'chapter' but no promises at the moment - I have a couple other ideas first - like one on Ryan and another for Will/Gar. As for David's death, that was interesting because I was re-reading I an did a pause - that wasn't how I wanted it to read. I might need to go back and tweak it. Basically the ring is why David was Robbed and killed - they wanted the gold ring Will bought for David. So he is speaking metaphorically. If he hadn't bought the ring he thought David wouldn't have been robbed and would thus still be alive. Yeah not that clear but I don't think one has to explain everything in exacting detail - right? Yeah I know go back and fix it. Thanks for the comments and yeah am about to post my first 'Fan Fic' entry. Hopefully folks will like it. Andy back at you
