    The older Generation know what Tarquin Merrick is, but it's for Finn and Orel to fight their battles. They'll step in if they must. I wanted to show the love in the Hickey-Grady family, and how Orel is just as much a part of that messy, chaotic and loving house. now I need to warm up, I am soaked to the skin. Brrrrr

    Publishing this one an hour Early, I am on my way to the hospital (Nothing serious just appointments) and not sure when I will be back. Enjoy, and remember STEVE's not in charge, NEVER ever leave him in charge... for the love of... And Orel's found a shared Spirit in Kenny.
  4. Chapter Twenty-One: Indiana Orel and the Sunday Dinner of Doom If Merrick Manor was a vacuum, the Hickey household was a particle accelerator. Orel sat in the passenger seat of the Grady’s tow truck, clutching a small, weathered wooden crate as if it contained the Ark of the Covenant. Inside was a selection of local mineral samples, labeled in his precise script, and a first edition of The Culinary History of the Ottawa Valley. It was a peace offering. Or, as Orel had classified it in h

    Well Axl has expressed his... enthusiasm for Geek boys... And I mean, Oliver is just a taller more bookish (if that's possible) Orel.

    Poor Axl, always the one night stand, never the Bride. And Kyle won't fit in a wood chipper.

    by the way, 15 more chapters to go. Easily the largest book I have ever written. I hope it is going well, that people are enjoying, and that it gives a little catharsis in our current times.

    Morning... hate Fridays.... Vampires at the NHS demanding blood work.
  14. CHAPTER 24- THE BUTCHER'S BILL Location: Rally Point Beta, 800m West of The Manse, Sector 4 Time: 0045 Hours. The Witching Hour. The briefing had taken place two hours prior in the root cellar of an abandoned church. The air had smelled of damp stone and cordite. West had used a piece of charcoal to sketch the Manse’s floorplan on a sheet of plywood—a layout provided from memory by Peter, whose perfect recall of architectural details was now a weapon of war. “Primary objective:

    Chapter 22

    Ned's definitely his father's son. This chapter went a long way to show it, smart enough to know that Peter could get out of the Manse, where as Ned couldn't... so the only person who could go get West was Peter. His sacrifice, offer, is strategic, which means you are right, he's playing dumb. A lot of smart kids in the system do the same. It's worked for him so far.

    Well Orel's Sausage Delivery Protocol kind of failed, true it was derailed by Tarquin, but Orel is not to be deterred. He is going to get to see Finn naked at some point.

    I mean, he's tried... but everyone keeps getting boyfriends before he can get in there... :: sad Axl music here ::

    Chapter 19

    I view him as largely Asexual, take the Barn. He forced Orel on Finn. Directed, gave orders. Not for sexual gratification, but for a clinical psycopathy. His drug of choice is dominion. I don't think sex does anything for him. Relationships would be nothing but performative, I am thinking Hilary and Bill Clinton, he's probably considering a match for power and advancement, but right at this moment nadda, nothing. zip. I think all three of the boys are badly traumatized by their father. And out of them only Orel seems to be able to form a healthy relationship. Now I have images of Tarquin lacing up thigh highs and a whip... Madam Tarkie, class is in session.

    He will get his fate. our King Tarquin is about to face his city turning on him. And Orel's will do what he has to do.

    Chapter 19

    Can I be honest, I hate him too, it makes my skin crawl to write him, and I have written some awful villains... this one though... it's that I know... we all know what's going on with people like Lord Mendelson right now, Prince Andrew... rich people protected by a system designed to do exactly that, protect them. It makes me seethe, and I think that frustration is boiling out into Tarquin. I want him to get his, just as much as all of you do. We're closing in, pieces are coming together, players are gearing up. the peacock is going to get plucked, stuffed and roasted just like the poor chicken.

    As for Tarquin's plan, oh yes, the bastard has a plan, and a contingency plan. He's sitting in that iron clad bunker that being Rich, old money, and connected provides. That armour needs to be dismantled in a place and manner that it can't be hidden. Gala Weddings are good for that, so many people around, and cameras.
