    The Fracture

    mayday commented on Tony S.'s story chapter in The Fracture

    I have been waiting for this. And dreaded it. Matt's pleas have gone unheard, he is standing alone waiting for his best friend. How will Kitt survive in the night? In the cold. If Matt does not rescue him from his fears ... This chapter makes me fear the temptation of the lake. But Kitt has packed his backpack. So maybe not all hope is lost.

    The Year of Almost

    mayday commented on Tony S.'s story chapter in The Year of Almost

    Quiet before the storm. Baby. Your boy. Obviously.

    I cannot remember a story which progresses in such tiny steps towards breaking point. Kitt's father seems to be afraid of life, of choices, of anything different, other. Do not acknowledge something and it won't become real. I ache for both boys. For everyone involved. Dreading the next chapters.

    Into Sophomore Year

    mayday commented on Tony S.'s story chapter in Into Sophomore Year

    Sophomore year won't be easy? People will be cruel. Expectations. The norm. Ambitions.

    Tyler is making progress. He seems to have gained some feeling that he is worth something.

    Chapter 14

    I agree with your opinion but I am not as hopeful as you. But what Tyler's mother did - I cannot cannot comprehend...

    Chapter 7

    mayday commented on vlista20's story chapter in Chapter 7

    After such a horrible revelation I do have to explain my immediate reaction. Now the cleansing can begin. Now Tyler's past can be addressed. Maybe he will recover from his experiences. Maybe now he may learn to trust.

    I fear for Kitt and his parents. His father means well but he is suffocating his only child. Matt tries to communicate. Should anything happen to Kitt he would never forgive himself.

    Cracks in the Cold

    mayday commented on Tony S.'s story chapter in Cracks in the Cold

    I wonder about Kitt's father. Has he any idea of his son's state of mind? I think I get him. He wants the best for his son. But has he ever thought of Kitt as a person in his own right? What he might be feeling and thinking? Wishing for?

    Great story.

    I love the way this is written. The style fits the slow growth of feelings between the two boys.

    First Days

    mayday commented on Tony S.'s story chapter in First Days

    Kitt's father seems like a tyrant to me. Both his wife and his son are are afraid to be too much. Both are quiet. He seems to lay down the law in "his" family and tries to keep his son on the straight and narrow. This does not bode well for Kitt. We'll see what kind of church they attend. Old testament rather than new testament's message of kindness, I would guess. That's why I hope Kitt will be home by 10. Well written.

    It should be cool enough in the Dolomites, I guess😁

    Beautiful ending. I am left without words.

    Jonas' perspective gives us some hints as to how things may develop. Jeff's lonely existence seems even bleaker from this point of view.

    Well said. More than 400 years ago Shakespeare wrote a scene in Henry V, in which two characters mourn Falstaf's death, one of the most popular figures in Elisabethan theatre. Obviously, the audiences must have been keen for more and new appearances of their favourite character on stage. I wonder if the same was true of the ancient Greeks. Some things will never change. I should know. I feel the same as jwomack.

    Finding Liam

    mayday commented on Nuno R.F.C.R's story in Fiction

    Mhm... I cannot imagine AI being able to create a complex novel like this. I guess it might be convenient for research, though, in order to make it real. I definitely would need help to know about entertainment industry, California law and legal jargon, to name only two examples. And what is the enjoyment in writing when you defer to a machine programmed by others to do itfor you? Where is the sense of achievement to come from?

    What a chapter! I certainly had not expected a judge to uphold the constitutional rights of a person to liberty and the pursuit of happiness over written contracts. Not sure if that tells more about my opinions than anything else... I am touched by the closeness of the lovers and by Mateo being Liam's manager and how they care for each other. Furthermore, Hudson seems to be overcoming the trauma of his upbringing. Great writing! Thank you for sharing.

    "I'm His"

    mayday commented on Nuno R.F.C.R's story chapter in "I'm His"

    Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful. And I admit freely to being so relieved....

    The way these two seem to have with words makes "everything" ominous. At least to me. Besides, admittedly, I am not a fan of cliffhangers -- but I appreciate not having to wait long for the next chapter. Your fast pace is appreciated very much.
  23. mayday
    That last sentence fills me with dread for the two of them. I hope it does not mean losing Hudson.

    "I'm Awake"

    Wow! I keep repeating myself. Butthis really fit the bill.

    "Kill-Switch"

    mayday commented on Nuno R.F.C.R's story chapter in "Kill-Switch"

    Wow again! No way I will risk predicting how this will play out, but hopeful for the two I am.... Great writing - and again there are quotes and references which I'll have to figure out...
