How is that even though I knew the Frenchies were coming I still had the gut reaction of "The French? Shit!"? Another great morning read thanks to Chapter 52; thank you Mark Arbour. Lots of things, Akbar really went through the ringer a bit going from milquetoast to leader and confidant nationalist to someone worried about the sovereignty of his homeland. Granger, of course, was just...Granger, even though his trip just got a lot more complicated but potentially easier too (assuming he really can drop the dress and make up for good). Akbar and Granger, YUM! Winkler was (continues to be) an unsung hero, supporting George through his crazy tribulations, I wonder what a day in his life is like. Is it like being the painting next to the Mona Lisa? As for the French? Shit!

It's a fine balance to befriend an employee. It was refreshing to see Akbar stand up for himself and find that balance. The ante just keeps getting bigger and I look forward to what's next. Thanks.

JP + Peter = Delicious. This chapter had me giggling and left me swooning. I think I fell in love . Funniest line so far, “Not unless you can watch the news with your dick" .

“I’m not sure wine actually has a taste…” LOL! Good for Bay; those three little twerps deserved some comeuppance! Thanks for another fun chapter!

Yay England! News like this helps restore some of my lost faith in politics and society overall!

You just made my life so much easier. THANK YOU! Why don't we have a "Love It!" option because that's what I would vote for the above guidance and DomLuka's stories .

Welcome loftus!

Hurry Kai, hurry! Silliness aside, it's a great chapter, thanks. I write that still itching to know about Kai's secret life and now less than excited about Jeanine. How do you do it Mark Arbour*? *Rhetorical question answer not required .

From the middle of Texas to LA, what a great way to start a new life/story. Looking forward to more. Thanks.

Whew, I was getting worried we have to go without your snark...I mean wit on this chapter.

Such a sweet and fun story with so many classic lines. "What if I just wanted to say to the cats with it?" I love the premise, as someone who has a V-Day birthday I can relate to the pressure . I'm glad it worked out for all three of them..."I like to sleep, and they’d keep me up all night with all their strange noises." Still snickering .

Hilarious.

Two chapters in one day...it feels like my birthday! Thank you again!

Happy Birthday!

I was trapped in a time warp and just now have been able to get my birthday greetings through... Happy (belated) Birthday!

LQTM (laughing quietly to myself).

If we're going to be really sticklers, its referred to as Cal for those in the school and surrounding area.

Not necessarily, JJ could get his naughty on another say with something like rope bondage, it works for a vegan friend. As for train wrecks Nick Schluter's kids are walking Pintos just waiting to be rear ended. I can totally see Tiffany going down that mind set but I do not see her going the Jeanine route of using Riley as pawn in a power struggle with Wade and Matt.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Wait I think I need a few more "O's" ...ooooooooooooooo! What a punch in the gut for everyone! Thanks for the great chapter Thorne; PLEEEEEAAAASE don't leave us hanging too long!

I could also see JJ going down a completely draconian organic/natural food, exercise all day health nut path too, making one wish he would go on a three day coke extravaganza.

Well let the sun shine in then Chapter 51 is up and Granger is experiencing first hand how uncomfortable traveling in drag can be. I must say (or write ) that if Mark hadn't painted Akbar as such a total vision of hotness, I would be way more nervous about George's journey. Not to imply that I am on the knifes edge waiting for whatever desert calamity that awaits.

Could Zander be more adorable? Seriously, nice work.

It's always a good day when I wake up to an update on our man George, even if you left him and us quasi hanging in a precarious situation . In a perfect world this will be a great learning experience and the vision of hotness will take Granger's feedback and take charge of his men; however, the world isn't perfect so I eagerly await my next fix.
