Thank you!

The moustache turned me off at first as well, but then I just fell in love with the character. Plus, dat ass... <3 EDIT: If you play on PC, there's a mod over at nexus (I think) that removes Dorian's moustache.

It's called Amoa Aqua. And in case you were wondering, the Finnish word for lube is 'liukuvoide'. I just bought this one cause it was cheap. Throughout Scandinavia and the Nordics you also find both condoms and lubricants of the brand RFSU, which was originally a Swedish group dealing in sexual education. (Link if you're interested)

Massive congrats to Sasha and Cris! :D <3 <3

Velvet Goldmine deserves a mention, I think. It's one of my favourites and has the added bonus of a fantastic soundtrack. The Naked Civil Servant and An Englishman in New York, the films about Quentin Crisp starring John Hurt, are another couple of favourites. They give an interesting historical perspective at the same time as they are just really hilarious!

If it's a thing you like doing, then you should keep doing it.

Lucky I'm going through my stories looking for stray reviews as I was on hiatus when you posted this. Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy the story. Nemesis is kind of my big work, I've worked on it since my teens. Don't hesitate to send a PM and ask if there's some Britishism you just don't get.

I'm passionate about sauna, myself. About 80C is the perfect temperature for me. I'm glad you enjoyed the story! As a Finn, your opinion matters extra in this instance.

Thank you! Glad to hear you enjoy my work.

Happy Birthday!!

Maybe you are? Does it really matter, though? In the end, the most important thing is that you're comfortable in your sexual identity. I'm the all-round type, pansexual, I like guys and girls and girls who used to be guys and guys who used to be girls, and people who don't identify as either gender, or who identify as both. Basically, I like people. That's a sexual identity that I'm comfortable with. But that doesn't mean that everyone who feels the same way as I do has to identify the same. If you're happy in your identity as a gay male, keep identifying that way. I'm pretty sure if you ask around, you'll find other gay people who have found themselves attracted to people of the opposite sex at one time or another (I know there are some here who are or have been married to them, and it's not always because of society's expectations or whatever). Don't be so concerned about labels. The most important thing is that you live your life the way that makes you the happiest. If you want, you can reconsider your labels later.

I use Fun Factory's Toy Fluid for my toys (which are all from there because I'm a brand whore when it comes to toys). For sex, I tend to just go with whatever's available, usually water-based. Currently I think I've got one I bought in a pharmacy in Finland...

That was a really sweet story! <3

Welcome to all the newbies!

Quick, someone write a sci-fi about it!

Happy Birthday!!

Thank you. I'm glad it's different, really. I feel different now than I did a year ago, so it makes sense that my new work would be different, too. I'm glad you enjoyed the story, and thank you so much for taking the time to review. Always warms the heart.

What Valkyrie said. Get a beta. Hell, get two betas, or even three.

This is something I've worried about a lot, and part of the reason why I dropped off the face of the web for a while in the first place, and why it's been so hard to come back. Depression makes writing difficult, and since I wasn't writing I wasn't updating, and I worried about losing my readers, which made me more depressed and made it harder to write. And because I felt ashamed for leaving stories unfinished, I stopped coming to GA entirely. Judging by the reception of the first thing I've posted in, like, a year and a half, though, it seems people are still interested in reading my stuff. That's a huge relief, and feels really encouraging. Feels like I still have a home. EDIT: I have, however, decided not to start posting any new chaptered stories until I've finished the first draft from now on. I don't want to end up in that position again.

Belated Happy Birthday, Mann!!

I keep getting ads for Russian mail-order brides. I also get online dating for 'mature' men, and the odd online dating for women. Google is confused about my gender and my age. That's okay, I'm occasionally confused about those things, too.

Happy Birthday, Kiltie!!

It occurs to me that I should maybe have added a pronunciation note... Juha is pronounced 'Yoo-hah', with a short and round 'oo' sound. Finnish is a funny language. I had a lot of fun with both these boys. Adam, I think, is usually quite confident, but placed out of his element and into a culture so different from his own he becomes more insecure. Juha is the typically stoic and quiet Finn, right up until he's not. It's so unexpected to find someone like Adam in his forested summer sanctuary, and that throws him off balance. So many people are saying they want to read more, so I guess I may have to start considering a sequel, or a second chapter or something... We'll see.

Thank you very much! It means a lot that you took the time to both read and leave a comment. As for a sequel, we'll see what happens.
