Thanks Lisa, I'm glad I could surprise you with the last part. I wasn't sure whether to add it or not, but AC thought it was a good idea. I'm pleased you approve of Richard's secret santa plan, which was a larger success than even he hoped.
Thanks Def, you're not the only one to want more, lol. I don't think I'll be able to do anything, with two currently incomplete stories. Yeah, both Brady men scored, and Santa apparently thought Richard deserved a surprise present too as reward for his idea.
Not just schools but work places too might benefit from this kind of secret santa. Yes, I also think there will be two couples. I'm glad you liked it, I loved yours as well.
Thanks Puppi, it was partly because I didn't have time to write more, but also because I felt that readers would probably be able to imagine the missing stuff better than I could write it.
And yeah, I normally have the same problem writing something short.
So wonderful than Jordan finally felt secure enough in David's love to admit his own feelings too. And I liked how the sweet hand job pointed back to the first chapter. They really have come home in every way.
The circle is closed, and the future awaits two deserving guys. It's defenitely one of my favorite stories together with the almost sequel with Benny's tale. I wish you'd post that here too.
I loved Jordan's internal musings during the 'slamming against the wall' scenes, the day 743 and 744 jokes, the I'm an accountant quip, well actually I loved every single thing about this chapter.
Well, that was an unexpected development. I wonder if Niles know Austin and have admired Toph from afar but never dared to approach him? I also wonder whether Gary is the supervisor of Toph's mother, but by his description of her as very dear, I guess it's unlikely. The whole Johanne scene was delightful, I loved how Toph took them all (including himself) by surprise by coming out.
Thanks mikey, I'm glad you appreciate my stories in spite of the slowness. PPC never got beyond ch 6 on LitE but I hope to bring it to GA in an improved version and add more chapters, just as I've done with CC. I hope you'll keep reading and tell me what you think of the story.
I guess now we know why Mr Brady was fine with his son getting a boyfriend. But I still want to find out how they managed to get the head teacher to resign.
hey tim, I liked it too, but now I have to go find a cookie to eat (and a man to kiss would be nice too, lol). Kaden is perfect and bonding over baking is a nice way to get a boyfriend. But we missed out on the massage.
Arrgh, I ran out of likes, I'll be back. I'm so glad Morgan came back too, and didn't leave Wil alone. It was the right choice. But Morgan may need to find a new job. Nice detail about Davis not being a complete jerk after all.
I'm with LBO, this is one of the stories I'd very much like to see continued. Although of course we all know where it's gonna end, right? And maybe there'll be another Santa helper, Tony the Elf, very soon...
I think Wally got off to easy. But of course I find it so awful that Darren believed him and spent two years in purgatory. The first half of the story was gut-wrenching and while I tried to hope Elliot was alive, I couldn't quite believe it until it actually came true. It actually made me shake from relief and joy.
You know I actually hoped he was having a heart attack and would pass on to find Michael waiting for him, but I loved the treasure hunt showing us those wonderful moments of their long life together.
