  1. I'm so happy you managed to read this, CG, and I apologize about the strange pronouns, I hadn't thought about the extra difficulties for you. Awesome to hear the ending gave you warm fuzzies too, I was hoping for that. Let's hope Imp agrees when he wakes up. Plus he may have a slightly hysterical Angel to deal with too. You put your finger on the sore spot: did the Power That Be Intend for this to happen, or are they Blindsided too? I guess I'll have to come up with a good answer to that and soon - or else the pitchforks may appear.
  2. With stupid people like that no wonder your blood pressure is high. I'd have thought low blood pressure would be more of an issue in relation to surgery, but what do I know.
  3. I chuckled at that FINALLY, but I guess it was a long story to get through, only to end up in almost the same place as last time. Yeah, those pronouns take a while to get used to, and then when you have, I switch over to he and his. I'm still wondering if anyone has guessed why. Glad you enjoyed it, I had fun with the banter too.
  4. Thanks, tim, glad you liked the 'unexpected' development. I think Angel and Imp will share your surprise when they wake up for their Valentine's Day mission. Let's hope they also think it's cool.
  5. LOL, I guess Imp should have a small pitchfork to go with his And you're right about me needing random prods now and then to get on with writing on my incomplete stories. The sequel for this one will need some major inspiration though, because I have no idea what will happen next.
  6. I hoped you would like this, Gary, and I expected you would spot the soul mate potential. We shall see what happens when they wake up. At least we know they're still an A.I. team on a mission. It was worried about Angel's POV being boring, so I'm relieved to get positive response - and no pitchforks
  7. Hi Drew, I'm you enjoyed the story. I'll do my best to write a satisfactory sequel, but you may have to be patient while I wait for inspiration (reading Sasha's new Circle of Hell story may help, lol). Did you notice how the pronouns shifted from ze and hir to he and his at the end of the story? This was deliberate, in case you wondered. My editing team did. You're absolutely right about love and lust being to sides of the same coin, or spiritual and physical intimacy as Angel would say. Thanks for an awesome review, as always.

    Chapter 16

    Well, I think Irene deserved it for being a pushy bitch, and Omari deserved it for being possessive and acting as if he was entitled to 'claim' Zac in front of Adrian. But most of all for saying 'old lover' like that - that pissed me off so much that I cheered when Zac left both of them on the spot. Well done and good riddance ! Of course, I don't really feel sorry for Adrian either, he broke Zac's heart, so it's only fair that he's faced with the consequences. If he won't own up to his feelings, eventually Zac will find someone else to love. Not Omari the snooty jerk, but someone nice.
  9. All stories read and reviewed, they were awesome. Can't do much on poetry, sorry.

    A Gift for Mom

    I was uncomfortable with the murder too, but for a different reason. It was a much too easy fate for the bad guy. He should have lived, preferably maimed and paralysed for life, and confronted and charged with his crime, and put in prison to be at the mercy of even worse men until he died. But if the mother preferred the rapist to be dead I guess her son chose the right gift.

    A Blind Spirit

    Such a heart-breaking tale, and I did not expect him to be literally killed. But somehow when I imagine the alternative horrors inflicted on poor gay boys by ignorant surroundings, they do not seem much better. They kill the spirit, even if the body stays alive. But I guess there's always the hope of escaping and finding love. We'll cling to that hope for his nephew, and that the ghost's brother will not accept the murder of his son as well. But if tragedy is repeated, maybe those two kindred spirits will find some comfort in each other.

    Chapter 1

    I liked the story, it reminds me of listening to my grandparents' war time stories. I assume Mke told the curator about how the aeroplane got it's name, that would be as important as the letters in my opinion. I feel sad for Mike and his grandfather that they never got to share their secrets. Such a shame, but at least it paved the way for Mike coming out the rest of his family.
  13. Because Don never asked what the reason for the fight was. He's a pompous idiot who only cares about outward behavor. That's why Nicola normally has him fooled. I can understand Robbie's confusion about Nicola. He doesn't know that bossy older sisters live to pester you at home, but get completely protective if someone from outside the family tries to hut you. I have to be honest, this chapter doesn't make me like her any more than before, so I wish Robbie would tell Susan about Nicola snooping in his things, including answering his phone. If he did it the right way, she could be in trouble for once.

    Chapter 1

    Whoa, I did not see that coming, but it made sense in a way, except that Carl seemed like a nice guy unlike Brian's father. It's funny, but I can easily forgive the man for cheating on his wife with the man he loves, but bullying his kids and being a closeted homophobe - not a chance, I'll despise him for that forever. Will Brian stay in his job or go somewhere else? No matter what he has Nate, and I hope he can help Kurt to get his life together. Nate is a great guy and I hope his family 'adopts' Brian as a son, so he finally gets to have a real family,

    Lost and Found

    Wow that was a heart-breaking story. The one weakness was the police's inability to connect the man with amnesia with the missing person file, but in a huge country I guess it could happen. I feel sorry for Lee, who saw his whole life fall apart, though I guess he has the kids. Richard at least knew about Ben's husband - who by the way is a bigamist, what a mess. But all in all I think the ending was to be expected when they both felt the pull to be together. But knowing how they hurt two other men they cared about must make it bittersweet at times.

    Chapter 1

    It works well on it's own, because we feel the loneliness and sorrow, as well as the need to find someone to share your life with, such as it is. And no matter what, two people will do better than one in this situation.

    Chapter 1

    Yeah, I'd take it too. Chase is a good guy and I can understand why he felt betrayed. He did act a little irrationally, but not over-emotionally so. He recognized good advice when Sam gave it to him, and he was honest with Terry about how he felt. They have a good chance of becoming a couple. That should get people to gossip, lol.

    Chapter 1

    Well, I guess Bradley finally got to the point where he had to make a decision. How much did Ryan matter to him? I don't blame Ryan for taking a stand, but he should have insisted they spent some of their stolen moments on talking as well as kissing.

    Oliver

    That was sad, but also with hope at the end. I'll remember Zaidu, and I look forward to seeing the three of them together. Ithink Oliver will be grateful he made the right choice, and that he was given another chance to exist and help the innocent.

    Stained

    I've suffered a couple of break-ins too, and you're right about feeling violated and angry and frustrated. The value of what they take is nothing compared to the mental damage, if the things represent fond memories.

    Chapter 1

    It's a lot easier to hide a tablet than a small spaceship and a blue alien. And they can actually get to know each other now. I have great hopes for a continued romance. They'll work out how to deal with their differences, and hopefully the nasty guys will give up eventually. Although, if they find the crash site and the 'glass' cover which flew off, they might step up the interrogation.

    Khalid and Kalil

    I'm almost speechless and glad you warned us about the story being a tragedy. Kalil was blindsided by his father who hated his enemy more than he loved his son. It was only just for him and his ilk to be blindsided in return by the only truly good man in the Cell. And for Kalil there was an end to pain and maybe the hope of seeing his habibi in Paradise. I shall never understand the intolerance and ignorance of this kind of people, and it makes be despise religion more and more.
  23. Sometimes you should never believe what your eyes tell you, and you definitely shouldn't believe someone who has his own axe to grind. I hope he holds on to his decision of never forgiving Carl for three months of hell.
  24. Sometimes Angel regretted having been chosen for A.I. duty. Sure, it was an honor and a compliment, as well as a wonderful challenge and all the other positive spin words their initial tutor had spouted during the Angel Aptitude Class, but…. And right there was another sign of how much ze had changed. Before becoming an A.I. team member the term ‘spouted’ would never have crossed hir mind in so disrespectful a manner. There had even been a slight urge to roll hir eyes. Angels simply did not at
  25. An imp from Hell teams up with an angel from Heaven for joint missions in the human world. However, the best-laid plans can go astray, and even otherworldly entities can be blindsided by unexpected developments.
