Thanks, Arazon, I like your combination list. Glad you like Peter and I think you're right about their night becoming a great memory. Telling Peter his ESP secret was an even bigger step.

of course http://satwcomic.com/a-bad-day http://satwcomic.com/proud-finland but I can't find the best one with Denmark and Sweden

I suddenly realized I should probably have specified it's ICE hockey we're talking about. On the other hand, what else would you expect in the far North of Sweden.

See, that's why I didn't want to use the term semi-automatic earlier, because I knew that would be inaccurate too. James, I assume you're also going to call out W_L in the Pit for this quote: Disallowing him to complete his gun purchases of assault style weapon? Yes. And thank you for explaining to me that what you meant is it's OK for U.S.A. to have a high homicide rate, because you have a high number of guns per capita. Now I understand.

Thanks, jfalkon. LOL, Imp would be horrified at your words, of course he's all bad! He's certainly not being influenced by that goody-good blue angel. Absolutely not... But I loved you thinking of him as a cheeky pet. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Now back to statistics. You may be #108 in the world. You're even able to say there are European countries with comparable rates. They range from Estonia to Lithuania, while Russia is in a different league. Estonia 3.1 Moldova 3.2 Montenegro 3.2 Belarus 3.6 USA 3.9 Latvia 3.9 Albania 4.0 Ukraine 4.3 Lithuania 5.5 Russia 9.5 If those are the countries you like USA to be compared with, fine by me. I find it sad, but as Graeme says, we cannot apply our rules and ideas to USA. Btw the average rate for Europe: 1.85 (including Russia), 1.54 (excluding Russia). For Scandinavia: 0.7, just so you know how my POV starts. Oh, and I'm pro-hunting and have no problems with shot-guns and rifles meant for that purpose.

You may have overlooked the ' ' around 'assault' meaning to show my ignorance of weapon terms. Tell me the correct word for the weapon used in Orlando, and I shall edit my post accordingly.

Nobody ever at the U.S.A. homicide rate, although the stories of toddlers shooting themselves and others are scary reading. What has Europeans and are the mass shootings not causing a ban on 'assault' type weapons like the one used in Orlando. And this kind of statistics.

Yeah, Lego and Star Wars can create a bond between two boys no matter what. Glad you liked the surprise and I agree about the neighbour. More on her later. Patrick is definitely getting more confident in several aspects of his life, including getting in touch with his cousin. LOL, we know it's worth listening to the A.I. team when they agree. Thanks again for all these lovely reviews.

Thanks, Arazon. You'll find out soon which words Patrick needs to learn first. I'm glad you like the inclusion of a few Danish phrases now and then. You're spot on about the support base, and while Patrick may have been more in need of this, Peter is benefitting too. Their bond is definitely firm and lasting now.

I agree with CG, Deon needs to stay with Clarissa and Warwick should move to Sydney and share a place with Kevin. I'm not surprised Warwick is apprehensive about having casual sex with Kevin, there's a high likelyhood he'll have his heart broken. I look forward to seeing the brat, Jim and Todd's plan to teach Stuart a lesson unfold, that guy needs a huge wake-up call. I don't think he's intentionally evil, just falling into a pattern which will lead him to become an abuser if he's not stopped. In a way, it's not just Ross they are saving from Stuart, but also Stuart from himself. I can understand why you're all aarrhhg at all the football policy drama intruding on your story. But at least it got us some time with Charlie explaining things and so far you've managed to work real life into your plot quite well. Interesting about Laurie's comment on most of the Leopards being noticed late in the season. Poor Ty, I feel so sorry for him about being ignored. I wish Paddy would talk to him and tell him to keep a low profile, because the Blues want him. I think we all want Julie to get the job. Perhaps Henry will make a mistake with Jim and Tony or piss off Ty. On the other hand, I can see Eric's reasoning and perhaps Henry will be a good choice too. Are there any VFL clubs with a female head coach IRL?

Thank you for the feature, Renee. I guess the rest of Nelson and Eric's date will have to be unprompted.

I didn't mean Kye would be Ash's amorato for real, just a pretense while they draw Barret out. Of course, I hope they end up in a relationship later. Although, considering Ash' status as noble, Kye may become a proper amorato.

I agree with Dayne about the room. Plenty of good stuff happening, including Kye being able to help with information. However, I think Ash should take Kye with him as his amorato. I bet he would be very useful.

Ash is probably correct about this being an important breakthrough for Kye. He'll probably revert to his former behavior again and again, but he's taken the first step. Even admitting to himself he needs Ash and could even hope to be happy was a huge improvement. Tareth is also helping as best he can, but it will take a while before they can be comfortable as brothers once more.

Angel, at least, has fulfilled the love part of the mission, and even if the guys haven't had full on sex, the lust is there too, so Imp can probably relax as well. Thanks for the support on Patrick's thoughts and actions, and for mentioning the bond with Moster. I'm always pleased when readers remark on her favorably; so few stories here have those influential, accepting and motherly women who are important in my family. Thanks for reading and reviewing so diligently, it's great to hear your thoughts about this story.

LOL, Peter's Imp, perhaps you're right, maybe he has his own A.I. team. Not that I think he needs it, he's been quite determined to express his love and lust right from the beginning. But the dildo matter did take him by surprise. You're right about all of them adjusting to the new situation and doing very well. There will be more about the various relatives later.

yeah, Patrick's life has almost been turned upside down, but he's happy about it. All Peter cares about is what benefits his son and their relationship. Money can help in many ways, but love and caring is more important. And Michael's acceptance of Patrick as papa would have clinched the deal, no matter what. Both Danes have good instincts. Glad you liked Moster Grethe, she does worry about her son, but she also likes to tease her nephew and is a bit nosy too. Nothing bad, but she has been wondering about Kim. Anthony's teen fantay, I'd forgotten about that. I'll have to come back to it in a later chapter.

Hehe, yeah Peter did enjoy Patrick's reaction and the subsequent undressing. Imp had a bit of a surprise with Patrick yelling back at him, that hasn't happened before. But Patrick knows what he wants even if he's all for taking things slowly. Glad you felt the family connections, that's exactly what they are now.

Thanks, Arazon, I love every imp/angel comment, and I'm glad you can hear them bickering about their mission. Perhaps Patrick's mum already knew about him being gay, but even if she didn't, she mostly cared about her son being happy. Same for his dad, of course. Because the story has Patrick's POV, we don't get much direct knowledge about Peter's feelings, but he has been longing for soemone like Patrick for years too. Having his support is very important to our Dane.

Thanks, Arazon, i'm glad you're sticking around too. It's great getting reviews for older chapter, makes me read them again and see them with new eyes. Yes, they're moving fast, but why hold back if you know what you want and need and you're both on the same page? Peter may be pushy ut he's respectful too, and he gets surprised by Patrick too, when the cardmaker get's all assertive. I love your A.I. comments; they're so much more fun, now we know their back story - which I didn't when writing this.

LOL, no problem, it's easy to get mixed up when both names start with P. But yeah, Peter took the plunge, being the brash and determined Danish Viking. Peter has no idea about Patrick's wealth, but even if he did he wouldn't care. Money isn't something we as a nation worship or is in awe off, and flaunting it is seen as bad taste. Glad you liked the glimpse of Angel and Imp, since they brought you to this story. It's fun to have a reader who knows them beforehand.

I'm glad you enjoyed the unfolding of events and that they made you wonder about the future. If you hadn't told me you got them mixed up at the end, I wouldn't have known. Your comments fit anyway, since they were both honest and knew what they wanted even if the connection happened so fast.

Thanks, Azaron, I'm glad you feel empathy for Patrick, but I guess that's no surprise from the creator of Matt, who is a nice, lonely guy too. Patrick does have a certain advantage, which may help him here too.

I like the set-up and the characters, but if Dorian doesn't man up and get something done about his room situation, I'll be tempted to give up on him. Honestly, all he has to do is go to the Dean and tell him he is being harassed in his room by Travis and in the showers by Raleigh and that he fears for his safety (he can repeat Raleigh's threat from the party with or without the 'fag'). He then says: "I'm sure my father wouldn't be pleased with the media attention following an incident where I was hurt, especially after his new status." The Dean will make sure he gets a room of his own, problem solved. I get that Dorian can be excused for being wet and spineless due to his upbringing, but lack of intelligence turns me off. He cannot solve all the problems he's facing but the room thing he could, with a bit of cleverness. If he doesn't want to face the Dean then go back to the stupid housing lady and say what I suggested above, with the inclusion of the Dean amongst those who won't be pleased by 'unfortunate incidents' and ask her to check with the Dean about the situation. For once his background could be an advantage, so use it rather than be used.
