Well now, doesn't this just spark the imagination..... Once the boys were out of the living room, Diego said, “We need to find another name for Caleb to call you. I'm going to keep getting confused with him calling you dad.” “Agreed,” Steve said, leaning in and kissing Diego. “Besides, it does feel weird when he calls me dad, given what I call you when we're alone.” “Stop!” Diego said, blushing. “Don't even make that connection.”

Portending the future??? I do as I’m told. Black drink is serious business. I feel honored for the effort it took to brew it. Not many can. Properly, anyway. Billie says the ways of the medicine man may soon be forgotten. The children of the tribe learn English before Maskóki these days. There is much of the old ways that will not translate and not many come to him to learn. Yet the tribal customs must survive. His responsibility weighs on him. Not sure I am sold on the reticence.... Billie inclines his head, silently agreeing. “Have you asked the others what happened?” He doesn’t mean the other people. Billie’s faith in my ability is sacred, but he’s teasing me now. I don’t answer. Mostly because to ask the wolves what happened would have been the smart thing to do, but I was too off-balance earlier to consider it. It’s for the best, I decide. Another aspect Billie has never understood about my tribal gift is just how much can be lost in translation. Or inserted erroneously—and I won’t risk coloring the facts with my emotions or theories. The mystery, if indeed there is one, will be Burke’s to solve. Someone it would appear set fire to Micco's house, killing his family sans father...hummm Chase is way too transparent and in over his head Calhoun's hide belongs with the mottled snakeskins in that display case, I am willing to wager a boatload of mea culpas that his posterior and quite frankly, the rest of him meet a gratuitous gristly end... How much was Sam due to inherit, an 8 million dollar bequest isn't chump change, then there is the drug issue, was Sam in way over his head, piss off the wrong drug dealer wanting access to his money...so many freaking...

I can only say...now you tell me....

Running away is the same as avoiding the issues Ilya needs to face...

It's kind of like wherever you go, you've been there

A better idea would be to once Lahari is back, would be to transport all the remaining gunge to the gray dimension

Wow...if they can bring back Lahari, and where is Pelipi?

Yesterday is/was too soon

Let's hope he doesn't spontaneously combust!!!

And the hounds of hell have been unleashed

I wonder what the reason Miss Taosie is unmarried. Dakota did the right things and here is hoping we've seen the last of her....

Will he be like a sailor, seeking any port in a storm???

Yes they are but only if you coat it with pringomite.... It certainly looks like Kosephaji may have found a career path... It won't be a snipe hunt but a Gunge hunt!!!

@weinerdog, I'm glad I wasn't the only one to suffer the joys of a colonoscopy this week...Doc wasn't too pleased when I told him I was ready for my close up https://duckduckgo.com/?q=gloeia+swanson+ready+for+my+close+up+images&atb=v314-1&iax=videos&ia=videos&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DVg1mYd-To8A I'm betting the 4 munchkins along with Trudy and Jed might help to smooth troubled waters... @kbois noted, I wonder and am concerned about Kyan's background/family, there should be more forthcoming... Loved the idea/thought @spyke

So glad Matt had time to talk with Alistair, helping him to better understand the reasons not to rush into a situation that might not be right...I give him a lot of credit for being non-judgemental and level headed... Drew is a hoot, wonder how he will react to being at/in the pool with Candy...

So what became of the photonova gland, did it expire or is it still useable???

Well now...this was best read after supper....

Boy...the trouble Lil Ivan causes 🙂 Enjoyed this chapter immensely, glad to see Silas doing much better and I'd bet an apartment is being created for Pat!!

This sums it up neatly for me other than to say, as with his father gauging the variables leading to a course of action, young Lord Grainger has the measure of his mother...

I think in some manner Newton's laws of motion apply here... A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force. When a body is acted upon by a net force, the body's acceleration multiplied by its mass is equal to the net force. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same magnitude but opposite directions.[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

Thrust out into a world he was not ready to face, can he be saved?

An interesting take on how warped and twisted those who profess to teach and preach christianity, have gotten it all wrong...One has to wonder how many lives have been ruined as a result... Thomas Jefferson saw through all the false dogma, kept an annotated bible that only contained what could actually ascribed to Jesus. One of his proudest achievements was ensuring that one could worship or not. And no longer would taxes be collected to support a state sponsored church...

Oh really, that's what Seth's mother has to say for herself..... “Now, Seth,” my uncle said. “After we finish with that business, Mr. Ellis and I are going to take you home to talk to your mother. You’ll have to make the decision if you want to stay or not.” He looked at Aunt Marie and added, “We personally would like you to remain at home. It is where you belong. I know your mother was harsh on you yesterday, and she said and did some things she shouldn’t have. However, she is deeply sorry. While you and Blake left to go get something to eat last night, she came here to talk to you. She doesn’t hate you. What happened took her by surprise, and she is aware that she made some mistakes. When you return home today, hear her out and find it in your heart to forgive her. If you can’t, then you always have a place to stay here.”

Things are moving quickly, the flush of hormones will only carry them so far...will they find similar likes, interests, college???
