It’s good to see the guys all get back together, with no death stares, no silent treatments, and no strategic exits. Aaron asked for time to get his head straight, but he did keep his distance on the beer, so that is a good vote for him adjusting to this development rather quickly…relatively speaking. 🤣 Then again it took these guys years to figure out they wanted the same thing. 🤷‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️ We can all be stupid at times, just hope it’s not years before we can look in the mirror objectively.

Any Good Samaritan nation would come under fire from the nations and groups wanting to play king of the mountain; with no regard for aid to a society unprepared for this level of possible catastrophe. My only hope is that there would be a heaping pile of them as they reached the contamination/saturation requirements of this mutation virus. BTW; I wonder what further mutations this virus may be?

I can’t blame the boys for their reluctance to even be around ML, and she keeps impressing more along the way it seems. How ironic, back to Carter. Will they get answers and will those answers hold hope for the future, as future generations are in question too.

Meanwhile, I think Kevin wants the after dinner show.

Oh, is that the one with shaved nuts?

It’s a recipe from Manly

Oh no, in community showers you should always use them. Hahaha

My, these sausages are succulent, has anyone tried the meatballs?

I was referring to much delayed, but no harm no foul if that’s the way you guys normally eat it anyway!

Kevin may be thinking much like Kieran, but unlike Toby for a little brother , he has Stuart little.

Probably late, cold, or drier than hoped and planned…but there not be any complaints as it will probably be the most frank family gathering ever!

BTW, hasn’t it been a week already? Big Paws must be scratching to get free.

The worst that happens is the holiday becomes more simple and that cruise is finally possible! 😆

Drinks anyone?

Don’t use your hands young man, we’re civilized here!

Hopefully the fecal oscillator is set for air only, but should the fecal mode become active, I can hardly wait for Toby to chime in with the innocent challenge of why is everyone going bonkers? 🤣

Oh gawd, love and defined by somebody from the tech generation; engagement is ok even before ever meeting the big fat hairy man of a girlfriend catfish once. If you go virtual with an AI relationship, it’s definitely not real, as no real woman is trying to make you happy after somewhere between year 1-3. The one thing the AI would get correct is by not having sex, because most heterosexual women lose interest after the first year and then don’t even show up for the game as time goes by. In this day and age getting frisky, and feeling randy is tantamount to stalking and molesting as again sex beyond the first year is in rapid decline. i hope your ability to capture all that wiki courtships offer is more sage than wiki itself. 😂 Then again if it is the aberration of a gay relationship, then love and a healthy sex life is still possible, even beyond year one. 🤣

Not cool to loose your head during negotiations. 😜 🙃 The healed vampire hostage released himself, from the bonds of silver chains and from those holding him in traditional vampire hierarchy. I wonder what this really means; will he return to vampire lands or declare himself free of traditional alignments and seek new opportunities to pledge allegiance. Unique healing; for a human…no, now a wolf. What?!?!? Gabriel now changes within a flash, human wolf, wolf human. But upon biting Ray, though a graze, Ray had healed near immediately; no shifting, wait…how did he already become a wolf without a forced turn and without a painful public display under the full moon. 🌝 This universe may be different from my assumptions, but there seems to be many unexplainable events surrounding Ray. And the Steward may know more than disclosed, but the old Vampire Valerius seems to know much more..or the fact that he doesn’t scares the bejesus out of him. Interview With a Vampire, the Changeling specifically, might reveal his enlightenment towards Ray.

So you dream about yourself, or your better than self? Hmmm 🤔, I just remember my dreams eh? 🤣

Indeed, daddy has showed up, but who exactly is on daddy’s list? Mommy dearest? Natalie? Both? Both is definitely the strongest and most logical argument. Daddy knows something, how much and whether with or without his consent is another question. This chapter has definitely has stronger implications towards Natalie and Ophelia working together and that also seems to tie them with having paired together against Ian in this scheme via Carlos. Alex, Gael, Both? Again both has a strong argument, but in this case Alex is being helped as dad sees determination not seen before. Once dad was invested so heavily into something he did for Alex. Gael and the games he endured under Ian then comes into light; Gael’s endurance is either admired and/or is seen as a soldier of opportunity and unquestionable resistance to Ian. Ian? Ian should be very worried. We finally see that Carlos has not been as idle as Natalie would hope and as Amanda has been trying to make it seem. Gael is summarized by Amanda to Ian as being dangerous and unpredictable; now with Alex, and his dad’s help, Gael sits as not only a member of the board, but as Ian’s partner! This while remembering that Natalie and mommy dearest already seem to have had a plan against Ian or his business; Carlos and Gael being a double entry as Ian needs money and hates weak gays.

There was a lot of information shared to paint the most current picture of Daniel. The brainstorming seems to be paying off rather quickly as the ideals are getting refined but also giving the new family a healthy optimism. Just as important, it is really cementing the family bond they need. As fragile as Joshua was/is, they need the strong ties to wade the riptides of possible emotions to come; hopefully a safe reunion for Daniel and Joshua With Daniel’s board working skills it sounds like the board making of Jordan’s past may be mentoring Adam’s little brother…another Devine intervention by Adam??

The premise is not necessarily wrong, it’s the attitude and method. Likewise, they still don’t understand or have the awareness to be informed about who is affected and who they may still run in to. Acting head strong and brash may take you quickly to be nose to nose with someone bigger, badder, and even more greedy. Greedy indeed, as she pimps the boys with the question about “is that all you got” vs is that all you can spare, or maybe compassionately asking did you keep some (never that a man’s last dollar) for just in case? The boys are being much more methodical and acting much more responsibility than little miss I INHERITED THE WORLD. P.S. From the origins of the taking a man’s last dollar was from my granddad back when a loaf of bread was probably less than a nickel, so inflation probably makes the like taking a man’s last $100; so poker, or supplies, doesn’t matter… remind or refuse to let a man paint himself into a corner and not be able to support himself or his family. The converse argument is just as important; don’t be greedy, have integrity, and expect the same from others.

Nothing wrong with bean curd; stir fried, sautéed, or in a tasty soup. I love many Japanese, Korean, and Chinese tofu recipes, some being more bland to others being quite spicy. So it’s very a versatile ingredient from being a side dish to an entree item. NOTE: What do tofu and a dildo have in common…they’re both meat substitutes. 😃

Hey fake boyfriend, you can’t go around touching my fake boyfriends…ahem…toys! 🤣 It seems these social misfits may have stumbled into a scenario that forces them to become more social and more likely to become true friends and more. I suspect the younger brothers will become enlightened in short order but ironically somewhat protective of Riley. Right now, I think the timing of this relationship just has them finding it difficult to see Cedric in a new light, as an attached person with newly divided attention. No Riley, it was just an expression when I said Bite Me! 😮 😆

Oh, that’s Wikipedia!
