Oh ye of misplaced faith in the inherent goodness of an author who will not be named…

72 hours in the pokey, under close watch, that or canoodling under those itchy blankets they have on offer, calm down boys…I read about the itchy blankets in another story… And the suspense is building and Christopher is beginning to understand….

I got nuthin… The pieces fell into place in Esca’s ancient mind with a horrifying, apocalyptic click. Loki. Andy had not just formed a 'polycule'. Andy had bound himself to the Trickster God of Asgard. Coyote of Native American myth.

Loved this chapter just so much going on. I rested my eyes last night and found this on my tablet today…so much for binge reading the three latest chapters… Wow…I suspect it won’t be easy getting to the palace and safety there isn’t assured….so long as Gesi the toilet snake 🐍 lives…

Thank you for sharing this….

Time to get out the wrist wrap, don’t want anyone over “exercising “ those tender “muscles “….

Hey @weinerdog, our esteemed author quoted me, and it’s first on page three…..

Why do you think y’all in the corner

Such a fantastic chapter and the parallels to every day life…We all carry baggage and some more than others.

Let’s see, a wife beater, tossing a child of 14 out of the house, both highly illegal…hopefully bio-dad is understanding….and sic’s the hounds of hell on Bernie….

Well, a trip to Ohio is in the cards. As to why he left, the uncle was very drunk, found out he was gay, kicked him out, and knew nothing afterwards. The estate is his trust, and possibly the house and its contents. If I remember, there wasn't any other family to take or want him. I think the following sort of clarifies that there weren't any other relatives to take him. From Ch 1 Overall, my early childhood wasn’t bad. If I had to guess, I’d say it was semi-normal. At least I thought it was. I didn’t have any friends, so I had nothing to compare it to. It wasn’t until after my parents were arrested and I moved in with my uncle that things went downhill pretty quickly. Uncle Ron was my dad’s brother. Mom was an only child, and both sets of grandparents were dead. It was either him or foster care. I spent a few months with a foster family while my caseworker tried to locate any relatives. No thanks. One taste was enough. I think it all boils down to an interstate fostering situation, and oh lordy, what a fustercluck that's going to be; can you say the situation is craptastic? There is the possibility that Ohio won't let him go without some serious persuasion. But with so many freaking cliffhanger chapters coming our way, just as the title says, Take The Long Road Home...and you'll understand with all the twists and turns coming soon to a computer in front of y'all... I still have the feeling one or both of the boys are gonna do a runner...anyone wanna lay odds??? My guess is Miles fleeing a temporary placement that wasn't much better than his uncle's house...

Going out on a limb here...dear sweet Dickoless, having ghosted Richard all during the week and weekend might be pulling the same old stunt as dear old dad... Now Stew... old enough to work, so a yr 11 or yr 12 student...who appears to walk on Richard's side of the street...what could possibly happen....

When it rains, it pours...

Mom...Dad...I need to tell you, aliens from Uranis have offered me a lifetime of hedonistic pleasures... "That's nice, dear; your father and I are divorcing."...

Take me….please! I know how to fix things and make dinner…..
