k, here's what i think is going to happen..... aaron will kiss rory.... rory will get outraged....(like he normally does when he feels he's been cheated or lied to...) rory will kick aaron in the face.... aaron will no longer have his pretty looks and is then forced to retreat into some dark, dark cave where the light of day will never touch him again. and then rory and luke and seth will have an insane shag session (that's right! a 3sum! well, it's the only way my fantasy DD world would work out...he he he...) and live happy ever after. on a side note: DOM, WILL YOU MARRY ME!!!??? i know, i know..i'm the wrong gender and all, but even so....i'd work real hard and support you financially so you could concentrate on writing all the time, and all i want in return is first dibs on your latest chapters!! heh...

GIVE ME CHAPTER 26!!! *falls over dead*

*whines* all this talk about luke/rory and dave/luke and seth/rory and is luke jealous and who does luke like.... *explodes into a million billion tiny little pieces* all shall be revealed in time. *evil grin* i've been thinking, though...if dom wants to really shake us up, he should make jase and eddie break up...but i don't think that will happen. eddie is very rory-like (gee, i wonder why...). if jase can put up with an adult form of rory, he can put up with anything. he could probably even survive the apocalypse! *giggles insanely* I WANT CHAPTER 26!!! *pouts*

aww.... *hands dom a plate of cookies and sends the hot mechanic over to your house to give you a massage*

-rory is flawed -luke is on a pedestal -seth is being scary nice -eddie is starting to grow some balls i have to admit, seth is losing some of his rat status with me, but then again dom has actually focused on developing this character in ch22. we know more about him and so better judgements can be made. and i'm inclined to agree that rory won't end up with anyone at the end of this story. he just doesn't fit with anyone very well. he doesn't have that spark that dom's other couples have had in previous stories. it feels like rory's just coasting thru life and trying his hardest to never have to think for himself. which annoys me, but hey...to each his own. anyway, rory just plain does not seem to be developing (character-wise) intimately with anyone at all. honestly, i wonder whether rory's really gay, or if he just thinks he is. i don't quite know how to explain what i mean by that, but it's there, in the back of my mind. eddie's freaking out about something petty, trying to make up for lost time. but then again, he has every right to do such a thing...he is rory's dad and he worries about rory and rory treats him like crap a lot of the time..not to mention eddie has held back on a lot of things that rory's done or said...sometimes you just have to blow up and deal with the consequences later. and luke....glorious, i-wish-he-was-real, luke. *sigh* to me, he seems to be getting more calculating..manipulative, but hiding it very well under a sweet exterior. for example, his whole thing with seth when they were building that deck...that was just plain wrong of him to do. even tho seth saw right thru his little act, we didn't know that until later. i know if i was seth, i wouldn't want anyone leading me on like that, especially if he was doing it just to break me up with my supposed "girlfriend" just so luke's best friend could get with her. very wrong.

i'm wondering why no one has really took rory aside and said "look, i know we got off to a bad start and all, but let's put the lying and the half-truths behind us. we're all (capable of being!!) adults here, so this is what's going on." and then just spell it out for him!! rory's a little dense sometimes... ...but i figure since he's capable of withholding information just as well as everyone else, he's not quite the innocent victim he wants everyone to believe he is... i'm starting to get the feeling that rory might be the one ending up manipulating everyone and being the evil one in the story...he he he...wtf am i saying? *shrugs* oh well...

congrats on the award!! i really like your stories, tho they need to be updated! *going thru withdrawal symptoms* he he he...

surely dom's not soo cruel that he'd stick rory with anyone but luke!! right?...*ahem*

hmm...i think we're all giving seth a little too much credit by saying that he wants to manipulate rory at this point in the story. i mean, what if seth's just as mixed up and confused and lonely and heartbroken as rory is? c'mon now...he's a teenager! he's probably just dealing with all the drama the best way he knows how and that doesn't automatically mean he's going to A ) jump rory's bone or B ) play mind games. i think seth and rory are a lot alike...especially since they're both so introverted. i'd really like to know what goes on in seth's mind, tho...and for the record, i still think he's a rat. and OMG!! i'll have to admit, this was a very good chapter, but am i the only one who's just a little disappointed that aaron didn't get carried out of that party on a stretcher? that boy needs to get his ass kicked by someone..soon!..because that's the only way anything will stick in that rotten brain of his..*pouts* *sighs* ugh...well, it's off to work for me! *considers calling in sick so i can *

oooohh...i totally want chapter 21 to start in some way like "Rory kicked Aaron's ass and made him pay for all those mean things he said and did and everyone at the party cheered him on." i want violence! grr.... anyway.... good chapter. really good chapter. i'm just glad rory talked to seth a little bit...at least he kinda knows seth's side of the story so he can piece together what was going on behind his back. still think seth's a rat, tho. and i am SOOO HAPPY luke is interested in this mysterious "someone else" instead of seth. he he he...i really hope that someone else is exactly who i think he is... the only thing that bothers me about this chapter (besides the fact that it's another cliff hanger and we won't get the next chapter until after christmas) is that rory never set eddie straight when it came to his relationship with seth. eddie thinks seth is a possible love interest for rory, and even if he might become one in the future, he doesn't like seth NOW and he should tell eddie that. rory hates it when people beat around the bush with him...so why does he avoid answering other people's questions instead of telling them up front what's going on?? it irritates me, but i guess it's just another one of rory's flaws. *sighs* i have my dom-fix for the evening...i believe i will survive until tomorrow. EVERYONE HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

hey now..newbie's are cool. or...well, at least I am...dunno about the others. anyway, i don't think that luke and aaron should get together, much less come within 30 feet of each other! it would be bad, especially considering how horrible aaron treated rory (and rory never really did tell luke what all happened to make rory change his mind about aaron...so luke's imagination might be running wild and he could jump to conclusions and kick aaron's a**?? hmmm...). luke's also become very protective of rory...and this development could possibly make it difficult for R and L to get together as well...hmm... so then who's left for rory? i really hope it's not seth...i still think he's a rat and there would have to be some MAJOR character development on him before i change my mind. well, just some random thoughts...

okay...first time poster, long time reader..bear with me! anyway, am i the only one who will never be convinced that seth's a good guy and luke and rory shouldn't get together?? this chapter made me mad. i mean, i really really really want rory and luke to get together (partially because i'd like to see how eddie and jase would handle that announcement!! he he he). the whole luke/seth scenario just makes me go "ewwwwie...no!" mainly becuase in my mind, seth's a rat. maybe i'm getting too involved with this story (tho it's really difficult not to, all dom's stuff is really well written). i can't wait for chapter 20!!!
