Chapter 16: The Character of a Man The courtroom was a tomb, silent and heavy with the weight of judgment, the air so thick with anticipation it seemed difficult to breathe. The thirty-minute recess had stretched into an eternity of agonized speculation, of whispered rumors that snaked through the gallery like venomous serpents. What was happening behind the heavy oak door of the judge's chambers? What unspeakable humiliation was being exacted upon the slight, spectacled boy who had walk

The reality of his life, and one that Brian's learning. Alex can either punish him for it, or accept it and learn to deal with it when it comes up. He's remarkably practical about it, he values Brian more than any external tool applying pressure to his boyfriend.
-
He's the worst at it, as will become apparent soon, one of those guys who lies without thinking the lie through first
-
Exactly, he's expecting it... though he understands it as well, which shows his maturity over Brian in that regard.

West needed it, in my opinion. Peter's as good for West as West is good for him. Though Peter's abject horror at the thought of having kids is amusing to me.

Nope, no they don't.

The Dark Sovereign Andrew is. This puts a leash on El Coyote, and Andrew isn't going to miss that opportunity no matter what he has to do to do it.

OSI did his duty, I wanted to give it a loyal hound moment.

I swear sometimes you are prophetic old friend...

Brian's tough, tougher than Alex who is more skilled. They balance each other really well, which I enjoy. Brian brings Alex to life, and Alex gives Brian the challenge he never had in Kyle.
-
I have written a Christmas special short for this series, I will publish it some time closer to Christmas. Brian gets his new car.

You know you are appreciated, no one else gets my sense of humour quite like you do

Canada has a long history of... diplomatic tension. I remember one round occoured after the Iranian state hanged two 13-14 boys who were caught for being gay. Canada went apoplectic at them (Rightly so.) Canada has always called Iran on it's track record of human rights, Iran has always loathed Canada for it. The fact that Will allowed a "I can't believe it's not a diplomat" into his office, to sit and stare at him and say nothing, would amuse the hell out of them. Which is what Will was counting on to sell it to the US.

Will, punching up as he always has.

"Finn - f-ing- Grady...." you can hear Peter yelling from space! Figured I needed to put the Grady's in there somewhere, even if they are Peter's Cousins (tries to do the math's) a few times removed, with maybe a few other aunt's cousin's boyfriend's roommates thrown in there for good measure. And we all know Gingers are the best!

DEFCON 2, or "Fast Pace," is the second-highest U.S. military alert level, meaning a major conflict, potentially nuclear, is imminent, with armed forces ready to deploy and engage within six hours, just one step below maximum readiness (DEFCON 1). It signifies a critical escalation where the U.S. is poised for war, as seen during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the closest the world came to nuclear war.

Chapter Twelve Wednesday, December 18th, 2019 WORLD END: T-minus 84 days, 11 hours, and 00 minutes. The Prime Minister’s Office, Langevin Block, Ottawa. The anteroom to the Prime Minister’s Office was designed to intimidate. It was a space of high ceilings, heavy velvet drapes, and the crushing silence of state power. United States Ambassador David White was not easily intimidated. He was a political appointee, a former hedge fund manager from Connecticut who w

That is if Steve isn't distracting our little Kenny with nocturnal activities that his Mother wouldn't approve of... Steve's mom would just throw a box of condoms at them and tell them to keep it down.

Very very much so, that's exactly the message I was trying to go for. Enrico's a big old softie, but shhh he has a reputation
-
Skinner think's he's got this.

The Coyote books ARE over the top, ahhh Mexican James Bond meets Alex Rider.... with a side of Gauc!
-
Well there's more than one kind of prejudice going on in that courtroom, and Assumptions lead to mistakes as Perry Mason used to say.
-
Completely removes Stirling (the Pinkerton's Lawyer/prosecutor) ability to cross examine, Theo himself isn't under oath, doesn't have to say a word, and can't perjure himself, which was definitely Rourke's plan.
