    Chapter 16

    Oh dear... well, we saw this coming.
  2. Love it! You once again succeeded wonderfully in juxtaposing the very different worlds Joel and Lucas come from, over something that should seem mundane but it much more fundamental and spiritual.
  3. How about some more baroque? Johann Heinrich Schmelzer's Sonate in d minor:

    Chapter 4

    So much hate for Alek in these comments! There is such a storm brewing for Liam right now and he really has absolutely no control where the cards will fall yet.
  5. Definitely a relief that Logan seems on the way to a good recovery, for Tilly's sake. If I was Keller, I'd be just as uncomfortable with the savior talk. It will be interesting to see how Vega handles their options (well, only one real option...). Hopefully not a pack divided, and hopefully able to blend well into Morningstar. Cute ending.
  6. Bobby gets major brownie points here, for sure. As far as Destiny goes, John's told us in an earlier chapter that she's usually fairly cryptic about the future so this probably wasn't all that surprising for him. After all, she wants him to live his life and not be bound to a set of predictions that may or may not come true.
  7. I guess we'll see what happens, won't we? It's bound to be a day of myriad emotions and memories. Some very punny comments.
  8. Emma is not a woman to cross, that's for sure. She knows what she wants and she gets it. I think by this point in their lives Christian has had enough time to bounce back, thankfully. A more relaxed teacher is definitely a good thing - or at least one that is confident. I had a very strong-willed teacher in my last English class in high school. She could rip apart a student's ego like no other. She was generally feared but respected and was actually an excellent teacher with good humour - humour that you only saw if you took her advanced english class.
  9. Such a heartwarming chapter, even if there is much that still may go wrong on the horizon. I have faith in Peter and Patrick's ability to weather any storm. Can't wait to see how Fiona will fit into the beautiful Web of this family (or not?). It's a name that I'very always liked, bringing to mind a caring strength behind gentle beauty that can have a stern edge.
  10. December 25 2021 Ah, Christmas. It was interesting, being one of the faculty with no family to go home to, staying with the students who also had no place to go home to. I said last month that I’ve always hated Thanksgiving because of all the bullshit with my parents and extended family. Christmas wasn’t much different during the latter half of the day, but in the morning… In the morning, when it was our family time, just me and Mom and Dad, it was one of the times I loved my parents

    Chapter 15

    Oh my. And now the Lyntons have started with the cray-cray. This is not going to end well. And, of course, Troy's misbehaviour this morning and the zipper incident are going to lead to issues...

    Chapter 3

    Lots of interesting foreshadowing and two new and cool characters to learn more about!
  13. So gruff, Park! I know they are shifters, but team building definitely isn't his forte. So the human who shit himself likely is the one with Henry's soul, eh? Should be interesting.
  14. January 26 2022 This entry is difficult for me to write. I’m recovering now, but this latest crisis is going to take a long time to deal with, maybe even longer than my recovery from Iraq. But then again, maybe not. I have Bobby now. I have him by my side, holding me. As much as things are beyond fucked up now, I know I’m going to be alright and I can feel safe. I never made it out to the bar with Jubilee that night. I was attacked just after I got off of the subwa
  15. A slower chapter, perhaps, but setting up so much for the future.
  16. Man, psycho dad is psycho. Curious to see how much he continues to try and assert control and/or punish is former family now that they have all made it clear they want nothing to do with him. What a creep, treating Kristin like that.
  17. December 23 2021 Emma called me to her office for a brief meeting today. For some reason I was expecting Sean to be there but it was just the two of us. I guess he’s already back in Ireland to celebrate the holidays and fit in some father-daughter time with Theresa while visiting some of their extended family. The whole idea of father-daughter time when you are talking about people in their mid-30s and late-50s respectively is just awkward to me. Maybe that’s because I don’
  18. I agree with Gary, this chapter was frustratingly short. But it feels like next chapter could be trouble with the addition of members of the other clans into the picture. There are ways in which Ritch is still a puzzle, but less so now that we've got more information. One has to wonder exactly how bad it was, and whether his former captor has something to do with all this in some roundabout way.

    More than he bargained for? Definitely. I don't think most people are really up to the reality of what teaching entails. Maybe John will just be experiencing a new kind of misery?
  20. What the hell did this mean, indeed! I love all the little and not-so-little mysteries you use to entice us along without leaving most chapters as a cliffhanger. The temporary merger solution is what I had expected them to discuss; now to see if they can make it a reality.

    :D :D :D Ahhhh... my daily dose of happiness, thanks to you!
  22. Oh dear, I missed it! Happy belated birthday, Krista!
  23. Haydn also taught Beethoven for a time - they connected when Haydn made his way through Bonn on the way to London, and again when Haydn was journeying back. Major lineages indeed!
  24. Well done, it made me smile. :-)
  25. John is definitely putting himself out in risky territory, isn't he? Maybe the risky feeling is only in his head/heart. I'd be terribly anxious about it if I was him, though. I totally get it. I thought this was one of my weaker chapters, to be honest. It's a bit all over the place in terms of content since it's more just an update on things from past chapters. I'm glad you liked it.
