I totally agree. Just goes to show Shiro and Keith are made for each other, no matter the circumstances.

I had to give a like, so you have the whole range. But also because the explanation is tragicomic - or maybe a comedy of errors. I'm not ready to forgive Peter for his stupidity and dishonesty. He says he had no problem lying to his parents, because their demands were wrong. But he also lied to Tristan, at least by omission, by never telling him about his parents and the need for deception, and also with the engagement party. What are his excuses for that ? If he had been honest, he might have made the decision to leave Daddy's firm in time to keep the love of his life. And he could have had a son, who would not be damaged by his Daddy being sad every time he said his name and by having a dad who spends time sighing over a photo in a drawer rather than noticing his son is in the vicinity and watching him. Actually, if Peter had been honest during the New Year's Eve call, he might have gotten Tristan back then. Or at least a chance to explain. That lie cost him and Tristan five more years. I don't think Tristan made a mistake by leaving Peter, then and now, but he should probably have left a more specific note initially. He needs to think matters over, and probably discuss this with a good friend to see their reaction. Will he be happier taking Peter back ? Perhaps, since he obviously still have feelings for him. But I agree he can't make a decision on the spot.

Sawyer had some very good points. The only mistake Jim made was not realizing that Mitchell's love would turn to hate, so they needed to be on guard for an attack. And he shouldn't feel guilty about that, because it means he was more decent and human than his lover.

But at least he won't have to watch Shiro staring and drooling over Keith.

Man, that was hot. But quite romantic too. Those two are perfect together. Thank you for posting these.

Keith is such a tease, and poor Matt is fighting a loosing battle. I love the interaction with the three of them.

You're welcome. It's tomorrow now. Tell, tell...

You're welcome. I'm glad Renee and I managed to keep it secret. I can now go comment on those chapters I'd missed out on last year. I didn't want to do it before the review posted, in case it spoiled the surprise.

Ohhhh, I remember the haircut story. This is an excellent sequel. Very hot. Interesting to see Keith and Shiro in a different setting to the Admiral and Prince story.

Deezen is the soldier, the son of his former commander, who Callim must use to win battles, even as he tries to protect him and give him the best chance of survival. Maris is the lover who cares aout him and tries to soothe the wounds to his soul, who is protective of the man he has probably loved and admired for years. They need each other, the love, the intimacy and the connection, and I think their survival may depend on it. I couldn't quite decide what they are: lesser angels or human knights imbued with special abilities and divine technology, but I think the latter makes more sense.

Even having no idea of the background, this tale worked beautifully. I felt very sorry for Keith and quite with everyone around him. None of them, including his husband, made much effort to find out what he needed in terms of food or comfort or occupation. I'm not surprised he ignored and disliked all of them, and his selfcontrol was amazing, in how he didn't attack any of the idiots who insulted him. But at least Shiro didn't give up, and they finally found common ground and love.

If t hadn't been for the mention of cell phones, tablet and chat rooms, I would have thought this story took place in the past. But I guess there a still plenty of people who have to hide what they are from a hostile world. I was a bit confused about the cousin Rich ploy. Was his boss the real cousin and he took over the identity ? If so, that was a deceit which might backfire.

While some of the people in Billy's life might have deserved punishment, surely the lesbian school principal and the wrongly accused father had done nothing wrong towards Billy (except not preventing Alice from being a bully). But I guess they didn't die, and neither did his mum, because that was not to Billy's advantage. But to me it still points to the possibility that the magpie caught Billy with revenge unasked for and cemented his hold by making sure no rival to his mother's attention was born. After that the magpie made mischief as it wanted, and Billy suspects nothing. One wonders what will happen during the rest of his life. I loved the idea of using a nursery rhyme as background for the tale.

For me the best part is the way they listened to their son and didn't brush off his knowledge or tell him to stop talking about it. I bet the policeman had a hard time writing his report. Great story, Val.

Not necessarily, Tristan could have seen Peter when he came down for breakfast.

Oh, there are several people here who have that kind of weirdness. I like same digit numbers (am waiting to celebrate page 2222), but I'll also notice page 1964 (my birthyear).

As usual I have no idea, so I'm gonna support Val's guess.

Sawyer sure doesn't pull his punches.

Yeah, that's one of my absolute favorites.

Hmmm, Peter already said he made mistakes, so I assume he's going to try to make Tristan forgive him. That might be good for Tristan too, if it helps him move on. But there had better be a VERY good explanation for his betrayal, an EPIC apology, and some true tales of six years of suffering, before Tristan even considers taking him back.

It was fun to see the raccoons at first, but then I started wondering if the guy did this often, and that could be why there were so many raccoons. This overpopulation might be bad for the local environment.

Yeah, they get a lot of money from Denmark and spend it on roads and tunnels. In fact the first SATW comic showing Færøerne mentions this. https://satwcomic.com/the-faroes

I'm starting a new post for Gap Year, as I think there will be plenty to do. I'll make the names from Gap Year purple. I'm going to assume Will and Kai didn't have new kinds of sex, ie that Will didn't fuck Kai. Will gave ORAL to Drew, Gathan, John, (Gustave), Berto, (Tony), Ryan, (Tyler the cab driver), Jeff, Kristoffer, Shane, (Patrick), John Carullo, Alistair, Paolo, Kyle, Vic the Masseur, (Trevor & Hayden), Jake, Mason, Steve the realtor, Kai, Ethan’s friend Joe, Zach, (Buzz Dalby), Dallas, Patrick Christian, (Colin), Chris, (Tom) Will received ORAL from Drew, cousin John, Gathan, Gustave the kidnapper in Paris, Berto, (David), Jeff, (Mike skater), Shane, Cary the clerk in San Fran store, (Trevor), (Mason), Kai, (Malcolm), Alex, (Colin) Will had intercourse with (giving): Gustave, Berto, Raine, David the ice dancer, Jason the Tech guy, Jeff, Hayden, Mason, Malcolm, Marie, Zach, Carullo, Toby, Alex, Colin, Conway, guy in shop Will had intercourse with (receiving): Berto, Tony, Ryan, Tyler the cab driver, John, Jeff, Patrick from party, Gathan, Kyle, Trevor, Chicago night club guy, Carmine, Kai, Erik, John Carullo, Zach, Pedro, Devon, Toby, Buzz Dalby, Patrick Christian, Ramon, Colin, Conway Other sex: Bar twink (rubbing against him with Will coming in his pants) Dallas (Frotting in the waterfall) Dillon (Hand jobs and oral) Colin (frotting, hand job) Tom (hand job) If we exclude the 'other' category, Will has had sex with 49 people so far, and 33 of those were anal sex and 16 were 'only' oral sex.

It's rare to see Will being immature and not as clever as he normally is. Maybe that's the whole point of this Australia trip, it even made him ask Jake's advice. He has no right to pressure Connie into spending more time with him, although I guess the sight seeing would be a good excuse for the guy being there in the morning.

If you look at the ending of chapter 1 it's already almost a year since he left Peter (February till Christmas). So if chapter 2 starts five years later, that's six years in total. (The editor @Valkyrie would never miss a mistake like that.)
