Very clever question and argument, and one Mason had no answer for even later. Perhaps one day he'll ask his father the same question and realize there's no rational reason, only bigotry, (self)hate and irrationality of religion.

I know, but I was reading about the shop which went back to giving out bags to irate customers and then caught social media flack for giving in. The boys might as well start good habits now. They can't have lived in the apartment that long. They only came to Sydney at the beginning of January, and the AFL camp started on January 12th according to the epilogue of Leopards League. So ten days max. (You should know I'm gonna dig into details, when you try to fob me off. )

As I understand it, Neil and Liam will have to get used to bringing their own reusable carrier bags to the shop in the future rather than relying on the shop to provide single use plastic bags. Is Mason still in the hotel ? I thought he had rented something for two months? I'm surprised none of the others mentioned the three bedroom apartment, Clarissa should have been clever enough to remember it, even if Liam and Neil didn't want to suggest it. But perhaps she wanted to discuss it with them first. However, Mason has been acting as a friend to all of them and keeping his fleeting attraction to Liam undetectable, so they should be fine with him living next door. Poor Deon, being teased by Karen like that. She's much too used to having a boyfriend who''s extremely confident and who trusts her 100%. Deon trusts Clarissa too, but he's still worried she won't be able to cope with him putting football first. Having her meet him at the airport will help, and Mason has good instincts on who to get on his side, lol.

Never mind. I give up.

Forewarned is forearmed. Robbie should forget about his worries and enjoy Nathan's company if possible and tell him when he's being annoying or unreasonable. It's better for both of them if they don't last more than a couple of years.

Hmmm, 689 may go with the (second) Dating Death prompt story I'm writing.

Sorry, I forgot that's not so easy with Anthology stories.

Yes, I know. But what I don't know is whether unchecking "Notify me when story I follow is updated" will also prevent notifications of chapter updates and notifications of new chapters being posted.

Hmm that's interesting. I can see you have the Notify me when a chapter is updated for a story I follow on, but I assume you don't get notifications for that, because you have the Notify me when story I follow is updated off, since you're saying it turns off updates for both story and chapter. I left the story update notification on, because I thought I wouldn't get any notifications for new chapters posted, if I turned it off.

Alex would kill Charlie after 30 seconds and I don't blame him. But Roger and Alex can be in the closet together.

I can tell you some Danish names, but I don't know if they're funny.

There have been some problems with notifications, eg for comments on chapters in stories you follow. However, the bugs are gradually being fixed. You need to go through the whole list of possible notifications under the Notifications Settings under your profile. Move the toggle to the right on those notifications you don't want. I have done it for the one that reads: Notify me when a chapter is updated for a story I follow

Hey, Def, somethings seems to be missing from the story description. But I'm gonna read the story again to remind myself what it's about.

So once they've dealt with the current danger, they need to go back to the commune and kill Frank, slowly.

I'm equally in awe of the questions and the answers. I can't come up with any questions although I've tried. Maybe I'm not curious enough.

I thought they would never get to the idea of pretending to date. And their mates can pose as bodyguards.

Or they like your stories too much to suggest improvements.

Love conquers all, endures all, forgives all. Their fated connection was finally made with that kiss. What do they care about bigoted MPs who are probably jealous and scared, so they have to build themselves up as 'men' by trying to intimidate boys. A comfortable hotel room is a much better place to explore intimacy for the first time, and they will have many summers together, and winters, hopefully for years and years. But of course I'd love for Chuck to rise in the grades in the military until Major Field one day is facing those same MPs and asks them if they can recall a certain starlit night and two boys in a tent.

Looking good on the Promising Stories list @Dodger It would be great if more people signed up for the Improve and Encourage feature. There are only four critiques not yet done (including the final one by Renee). The next author to sign up gets to critique a story by CassieQ.

Carter need not feel bad about Alex cheating on his husband. He simply needs to do better himself and learn to love Aron the way he was always meant to do.

I wonder if Yolanda has called Aron and read him the riot act for his husband's tired looks. Hot break from work

I think Declan was being practical as well as clever. He knows there are plenty of ways Bailey can hurt himself and some would be less controlled than small cuts to his hips. And he wants to spend time with Bailey and for them to become close, not to mention boyfriends and lovers. The easiest way to accomplish that is to convince Bailey to turn to him whenever he's feeling overwhelmed. Yeah, it's mature to realize Bailey will have to want to stop cutting himself, but didn't Declan go through a similar process? Having to realize he had to start thinking for himself, take a stance against the bigots and stop sneering at the other athletes at the school. He had to want to get rid off his bad habits before it could happen. Bailey is strong enough to do the same, and all Declan can offer is to be an instrument in that process.

Seems to me a shower should happen between the dirty stuff and the movie. Together perhaps But I guess neither of them is ready for that.

good to hear from you.

LOL give the hungry bird a few crumbs and they immediately start yelling for more. Thanks for the encouragement in the prompt forum, and you were absolutely right. I'm so happy my readers all enjoy the short ride.
