Like most here I think it depends. It has to be natural or else it just becomes jarring and you skip it or you feel the story has lost some of its pleasure. I hate when I become invested in the characters and everything seems to be slowly building and then one kiss and perfect sex. I'm like where did that come from. One kiss? No problems? Perfect sex? Then again some stories need no more than a suggestion and what my own mind fills in for them is more than any writer would want to put on paper unless it was out and out pornography. I think it depends on the strength of the writer and the story they have crafted.

Funny he sent you the lyrics to song about Wuthering Heights. It is a major work of literature about basically a control freak who loses it all and takes the one person he loves down with him. Not exactly something you want in a romantic relationship. Don't let yourself be tied to him if you are still willing to stalk his facebook and want to know every detail. If you can be content to be a long distance friend without knowing his daily details then I'd suggest being friends. IF you find that hard to do it might be much better off for you to simply let this relationship end and move on completely. Either way I wish you the best of luck.

Overall I think it depends on the person. I've seen androgynous men and women. There is a fine line between that sort of could be either a man or a woman that allows the mind to guess and cross dressing. One thing to be dressed and have people wonder which sex it is and purposely cross dressing. I mean if you want to be a Drag King or Drag Queen that is one thing. If you are just able to keep people guessing because your clothing doesn't reveal and neither does your physical appearance than that is another. But ultimately it is the person that will attract or repel you.

But then again I do like a smart guy and Data is smart. Don't know if he is the the sort of androgynous look they are asking about.

Chapter 2 – After the rain The rain had ended shortly before Charlie ran out the door. He found the warm shower water did what the whole night couldn’t, make him tired. He had nearly fallen asleep standing up in the shower when the warm water ran out, and ice-cold water pelted him in the face. Climbing out quickly, he noticed his alarm clock through the open door and realized he was going to be late if he didn’t move immediately. Charlie’s brown hair lay in curls around his head; he h

Larwain, I find that nature usually is a good way of sensing how things are going. If not then sometimes using food to help it. If you read that someone sits down with a carton of ice cream and spoon but can't even take a bite already you know something is up. Tina has her moments, and she isn't gone yet. Charlie isn't a wimp so much as sort of beaten down. I think everyone has hidden strengths that come out when they really need them.

Thanks for the commenting. Will have to go back to adjust his timeline a bit. I probably need a to find a reader who can catch the errors with it before I get it up. Well reading tags helps but still going to need to wait. Very perceptive about Charlie. He does have brown hair, is slender, and on the shorter side of life. But most of that is made clear in the next chapter. Thank you for the comments and they are all very much appreciated Cia.

Chapter 1 – Charlie’s Night The rain was still falling steadily as Charlie gazed out the dark window into the early morning. His legs were tired from standing there all night. He’d finally stopped crying about an hour ago but his eyes were still puffy and there would be dark circles under them today. As he stood there with his arms wrapped around his chest the alarm clock began to ring. Absently he turned around and slammed the button off. Catching his image in the mirror he realized his

Charlie's whole life has been a series of accidents. He often joked that if it wasn't for bad luck he wouldn't be here. But now that everything is changing again in his life what will this accident bring to him?

From the sounds of it she isn't just acting out, she is acting destructive. She needs help and it might be beyond what you can give her. Help her where you can, remind her you are her friend and are deeply worried about her. Try to get her to talk to someone professional. If you are at school sometimes there are people who donate time to colleges for problems students will encounter. I wish you all the best and keep your friend in my prayers.

I think it all depends on the people involved. I've been the senior and the junior partner in relationships. A lot depends on how each treats the other, how open they are, and whether they communicate well their wants and desires to each other. Like most relationships, once two people become a couple no one else should try to separate them, but instead try help them get past any hurdles the nay sayers toss in their way.

For fun I enjoyed Adam and Steve but also like so many others love Latter Days.

Amazing how James can make the whole theft and money seem almost normal and acceptable. I enjoy your writing style. Will have to pick this odd little tale up after I come home from work.

Well two chapters in and I'm glad I don't have to wait for more. Although a bit lost, sorry an American here, with locations the story flows nicely and I too am curious as to what the lawyer will be telling him. As I go along here promise to comment and see what happens.

Here you have someone who so needs to calm down and stop over analyzing everything. Now that we have it from his perspective I'd love to know exactly what his younger lover is worried about or thinking of. Kept me with you the whole time just want more. I hope it will be written soon. I like what you began.

Spinning by ~ Wayne Spinning like a crazy wheel turning round in wild circles. Going round and round never knowing which way is up. Trying all the different paths but find none that work. Seasons change from one to the next and years float on and on. Yet you don't want to go just yet. You stand and wait for a sign and it never seems to come. Some settle for what they find, others twist and roll around. The heart wanders all about, and the mind flys so far away.

A poem about life after being told by your lover they are unsure how they feel about continuing together.

I think it all comes down to the people involved. I don't care if it is straight or gay. Marriage isn't for everyone. I think you need to be really content with who you are and be willing to honestly share your day to day life with your partner. Forcing it, rushing it, and not being honest with yourself or your partner has lead to a massive rise in divorce. I don't think marriage will fade, what will alter is the idea of family and how we handle situations. Some people might be happy going from relationship to relationship and never commit to just one person. Others will want to find and spend their life with that person and make it a marriage. I am all in favor of it if the people involved realize the commitment they are making. All in all ,a scary question with very individualized answers.

I've never even managed to visit anywhere outside of the USA. However I have been looking lately at posts for teachers. Finding a position here isn't easy. The economy is down and jobs are scarce. If I was to go anywhere would be different and I would be on my own. I am not sure I would want to give up my citizenship but I guess that all comes down to if I found the right person. Right now I am free so anywhere I hang my hat is home.

Having read A Question of Tine I knew eventually I would find the other. Now please, please tell me you are going to continue to fill in the gaps and perhaps go further. Really desire to know what happens when Tine goes to live with his lover, what is the mystery of Tine's past, where will you bring us as you continue your tale. Got to say I enjoyed the original tale and like how you blended in some parts of the original into the expanded version. I enjoy your clean writing style and can not wait to see more of this.

Now that was a powerful piece of writing. You couldn't help but feel some of his never ending pain. Naturally you leave us with more questions than answers. I do have an advantage that many others have already commented on your story. My biggest question isn't whether or not you will continue this piece but what painting is it that inspired such a tale. A man chained to a wall, two murderous siblings, a woman who is unlocking his chains while he falls into the arms of his lover? Would love to know what inspired such a Gothic tale. In all one story that should not be passed over and instead should be taken and read slowly and enjoyably in the soft glow of an old lamp late at night.

I really enjoyed the story over all. Only spot in your tale, which I read in one sitting, was when Gregory was coming into his own power. Still not sure I know what was going on there. But really hope you have continued this story. Would love to know what happens to poor Ben when his insides finally catch up to the changes wrought on his outsides. So overall where is that next part of this story?

I am pretty sure you had this as a very short one piece story. Here you are taking the time to work out more scenes and the story flows so well. I really can't wait till every one knows he is claimed and he gets his blue robe instead. Your writing is always so on target. Only point to make is the one spot here where you talk about him smiling smile. Looks like a typing error and with how great the rest is just wanted to point it out. Any way you look at it, I hope you do put it back on the to do list and fulfill my desire to know more about these two you men.

Lugh, Pardon me if I seem familiar, my account seemed to vanish after my first few reviews and I this way I am just going back to say which I enjoyed and wanted to make sure credit is given again. I got the nickname Comicfan and now all my posts are showing but with no names attached. Thank you again for "A new take on an old theme. Love how this time the changeling isn't so much a babe but a child who has and established identity. Will make Robin's replacement a bit harder to keep up his act. Careful now, there are Elves in the woods and who knows what other creatures may yet turn up. Lovely story just wish there was more, but that is always my problem with flash, draws you in but never enough. "
