    Well, now this is quite the set-up/development...I think @Summerabbacat and @weinerdog have hit the highpoints. We are still waiting for that conversation regarding Jacy's 'abilities.' And where those abilities will take him... I get the same feeling too!!!!

    Thank you for your thoughtful comment. I truly appreciate it, and it means a lot to me! On a body count note, per comments in a different story, you with three and @Lee Wilson in the hundreds of thousands, I've managed to dispense with two entire civilizations...he might be subtly rubbing off on me...oh snap...poor choice of words...

    And therein is a simple truth, I've always had wandering feet, much to the consternation of family and friends...friends who would rather spend night/weekend after night/weekend in their local watering holes. My admonition to them is that watering holes exist all over the world and they simply can't see the forests for the trees... Mind you, it isn't necessarily watering holes as the focus for my trips either. I'm a museum junkie and a history buff, and in all of my travels, I've come across some of the most amazing folks, who are truly no different than you and I, despite our differences...

    Something I rarely do is to post my reaction/comment to a story, and this story is worth the read folks!! So tender and sweet, even in the harshest of times, a powerful and impactful story, thank you for this!! Mo Xu looked at the maps on the wall and at the pins bristling along the blue river. He thought of his son’s hand in his as a child, of catching dragonflies over an irrigation ditch with a chubby toddler. Mo Wu was too young to understand the way of nations and the limits of love. “Sometimes,” he said quietly, “the point is only that you know. You have seen the enemy’s face and found a human being there. That is all there is.”

    Great take on the prompts and a very entertaining tale!!! Somehow, I thought Jamie's arrogance would lead to his downfall!!!

    drsawzall commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 1

    A story of such simple lessons, well done and very enjoyable!!! He pointed to the waterfall. “The river loves the mountain. It sings to it, carves it, is born from it. But it cannot stay. Its love is expressed in the leaving. In the feeding of the land, in becoming the lifeblood of the great Tonle Sap. Is the river’s journey a betrayal of the mountain? Or is its love for the mountain made manifest in its purpose?”

    This is one of your best yet. The pacing, the descriptive narration, and internal dialogue had me trying not to speed-read this. Understandably, we all know you have a lot on your plate, but an occasional peek in at the station house would be wonderful!!!

    My goodness...this was simply an amazing read, you had me hooked from the beginning!!!

    This was a great take on the prompt challenge, and yes, a few shorts down the road would be interesting to read, they don't have to be funny or comical either...

    drsawzall posted new chapter in The Rim Job

    Lando Carbonara was a wanted man, one who was looking for a payday that would clear the debts of his past and set him up for the rest of his life. The deposit on the lakeside cottage on Ularah-18 would finally be a place where he could hide in plain sight, safe from Roco’s bounty hunters. If the old man’s story was true, and the information on the data crystal could still be read, then the key enclosed in the old man’s papers and box of nick-knacks would open the rumored vault to unimaginable tr

    The Rim Job

    drsawzall posted a story in Fiction

    Lando Carbonara is a wanted man aiming to clear his debts and secure a safe haven on Ularah-18 by accessing a legendary vault filled with treasures from a long-lost king. He carries a data crystal and a map from Simeon, an old treasure hunter who recently passed away, entrusting Lando with a final mission that could change his fate. However, Lando faces imminent danger from Roco, a ruthless bounty hunter sent after him, and must navigate a web of syndicates and informants to survive and succeed.

    Very interesting, who all perished in the explosion, and where is Owen? Time to take Owen for a walk to Reese's room!!!

    I get the faintest sense Gabe just might be a tad obtuse.....

    That was interesting to say the least!!

    Missed this family for a bit and glad to see this chapter!!! Picked up a new slang word...pukka!!! Urban Dictionary: pukka And so do I!!!! “No! But the other day, Rory’s door was open, he had his nose more or less embedded in Slav’s bum.” “Slav’s capacious bum.” “Full of ripe smells and…” Jason broke down laughing. “OK, I get you. And no. I don’t go there. I like my guys clean and sparkly, thank you, like a certain person next to me.”

    Wow..,.there's a lot of ground...ahem...space to cover here...the upgrade just in the nick of time, who was the 'helping hand' that instituted it, and did they have foreknowledge that it was needed?!!! What of the remainder of the crews and the instructors? Did anyone else survive? Was this 'incident' part of a plot by the Director and possibly Professor Stick-Up-His-Ass? It would seem there is a concerted effort to 'neutralize' Shawn... Where is the 'boy' writing the AI program, having dessert? Is this boy someone who will be coming into conflict with the Director and the 'established' order??? What's the difference in their timelines???
