    There's a reason I gave them the chapter header photo. They are so much the heart of this particular volume

    Chapter 11

    It's also good to show that beneath all of Ashot's bravado, and swagger, he's deeply scarred, and that Stephan holds his world together. Stephen needs Ashot to challenge his shyness. And Ashot needs Stephen's steady dependability and reassurance.

    Chapter 11

    There is a price for victory. It should be noted that Godfrey is Baldwin of Edessa's brother. The remaining Crusader Lords are a nest of vipers, and all of them know that Darien and his Vanguard are the Kingmaker for the crown of Jerusalem. But while Darien is trying to protect his own, Wylan is not going to stand by and allow him to die. Wylan is a mighty little magi, and he isn't about to be drowned by prophecy, not when it comes to the man he loves.

    Chapter 11

    Raymond of Tolouse's butchery at Marrat al'Numen was a warcrime. It changed everything, and bode a stark warning for what would happen If HIS madness was unleashed on Palestine. Darien's most dangerous enemy is not the Vizier, the Witches, or the shadow of Kalijj Arslan. It's a man with a rusted piece of iron.

    Chapter 11

    good morning. "He will drown in dust!" The prophecy revealed.
  6. The winter that descended upon the high, jagged peaks of the Judean mountains was not merely a season; it was an absolute, physical assault. Freezing, relentless sheets of rain battered the ancient limestone walls of Bethlehem day and night, turning the narrow, winding streets of the town into treacherous rivers of freezing mud and human refuse. The sky remained a solid, bruised iron-gray for weeks on end, completely suffocating the warmth of the sun and plunging the world into a state of

    The Gathering

    Poitr has a point, Flynn doesn't have any friends, he doesn't know what friendship looks like. It also gave Gary a chance to explain how important to Poitr Flynn is. I love Gary, he's just such a good friend to the boys.

    The Gathering

  9. The day was gone when Flynn finally looked up from his laptop. He'd been deep in Seraphina Vale's SEC filings for the past three hours, tracing the web of shell companies and subsidiary holdings that connected her green energy empire to a network of FBMI contracts, offshore accounts, and at least one front company that appeared to exist solely to purchase industrial-grade copper resonance coils—the same coils diagrammed in Frank's blueprint. His eyes were burning. His neck was stiff. His c

    Chapter 10

    If it counts, this negotiation saves lives. Though no one is ever going to hear about it if Steffy has his way.
  11. Isaiah and Dimitri are on their way. They just need to catch up.
  12. Vega Vixen 7 The inevitable yellow cab, you'll ride it till you drop!
  13. It does have a mind of it's own, and the ability to open doors... I have visions of it, now, lifting weights and working out for it's glorious exploration mission, FOR ALL GLORB-KIND!
  14. His heart is in the right place. It's just his execution that... well he's always had issues with that part. I do explore why he is this way, why Yellow, and why Vega Vixen...
  15. The Λega Λixen ΛI hung in the black like a banana that had been painted by a man with a death wish and no respect for aerodynamics. Mickey Ryder was strapped to the exterior of the stolen Veth scout ship in an EVA suit, a paint roller in his bandaged hand, a can of banana-yellow acrylic strapped to his thigh, and approximately seventeen different safety violations screaming through his TAC-link as Hughie detailed exactly how he was going to die. *"Captain, if you slip, you will not f

    I do find it amusing that it is implied that Lloyd is getting some competition for his Largest Lance from his own squire.

    Chapter 10

    I think Ashot is 90% bravado, he pushes boundaries as a form of reassuring himself that Steffy isn't going to ditch him and run. They've been together for about a year and a half at this point. If we presume Steffy was between 14-ish when he met Ashot, and Ashot was about a year older. They are 16/17 at this point respectively. The relationship is deepening, solidifying, and becoming something definite for the both of them. Heck they even have a terrifying FEATHER baby together now... which you know Steffy named in Armenian for Ashot's benefit.

    One thing Ashot knows better than anything, is weaponized sex. I do like Stephen asserting himself at the end. Setting a boundary that Ashot needs to ask, that Stephen is not a play thing, and that owning a person goes both ways.
  20. Winter did not fall upon the Judean hills; it slammed into them with the bruising, unforgiving force of a swung mace. The arid, baking heat that had defined the Vanguard’s march down the Levantine coast was violently swept away by freezing, torrential rains and a biting, relentless wind that howled through the narrow, ancient streets of Bethlehem. The sky turned the color of bruised iron, and the jagged limestone ravines surrounding the town filled with treacherous, icy mud. For the Fa
  21. there it is, thanks mate!
  22. Odd, that is not it, On the side of my screens when looking at the title page of a book there would be a small widget/box (similar to what you do for Recommendations) which featured Chapters weekly,monthly,yearly and All time. It is no longer there, this is a new thing. So I am confused if I turned it off in a setting.
  23. I am probably tired, missing something, or have clicked something. There used to be a box on the right of the screen that contained how many chapters per week, month, year and all time. I was using that as a gauge to my performance, and to keep track of my productivity. Has that been removed now? Moved? Can we have it back?
