  1. Act 2 The morning after the incident in the archive library, the atmosphere at St. Jude’s College had fundamentally shifted. Felix awoke in his rigidly structured dormitory room, the bleak morning light filtering through the narrow, gothic windowpanes, and immediately sensed that the established order of his universe had been irreversibly compromised. The cold stone floors seemed to radiate a new, sinister energy, and the damp, woollen smell of his uniform hanging perfectly on its valet sta
  2. The dining hall at St. Jude’s College did not inspire intellectual greatness; it inspired a deep, lingering sense of atmospheric dread. Built in the late nineteenth century by an architect who seemingly harbored a violent grudge against natural light, the hall was a cavernous expanse of damp, gray stone, vaulted ceilings that trapped the smell of boiled cabbage, and long oak tables deeply scarred by generations of miserable students. It was less an institution of higher learning and more a gothi
  3. Felix has a system. Ryder is a system error. When a missing student and a slice of stolen treacle tart turn Felix into the school's most feared warlock, Ryder decides he's running a scam—and he's going to prove it. But the more Ryder follows him, the more Felix's rigid world unravels. Dark Academia has never been this ridiculous, and falling in love has never been this chaotic. A gay rom-com about luck, lies, and the absolute disaster of being seen.

    Chapter 29

    I am contemplating writing something down the line involving the Wolf Scouts... but need to come up with a story arc for it. Gerald absolutely must earn his "Chorus Line" badge
  5. the little monster is his father's son. It's intriguing for me to look at what makes an evil like Tarquin. I will explore him further in a future book, just have to get the feel and shape of it first.
  6. I recommend Echo, if you want to get into what brought Andy and Will to where they are, and explain how Andrew got involved with CSIS. War and Fortress are good, but very light on Andrew and more Will Centric. Recourse, however, is the one where Will and Andrew finally sort their nonsense out. If you want to jump to something more Andrew centric, Carter's Breach is a lot of fun. A more traditional Spy novel, plus Jacob Carter as the terror of Canada House, driving his Dad and Pa nuts. Breach is designed as a more stand alone novel. set in 2015.
  7. Ummm reasons... that are tactically sound, and totally not because I didn't think about it... and might have actually missed that... ummm... Look over there... a thing... that is something else...
  8. Takes them a couple more years. But they do get there. The two men are bound together, and the more they try to deny it, and protect each other, the more the tie themselves tightly to each other. They just need a little time to figure it all out. Jacob and Tommy Carter are walking, talking proof that they get there in the end.

    29 The idling diesel engine of Marty’s heavy-duty pickup truck rumbled with a low, steady vibration that did absolutely nothing to soothe the frayed nerves of the passengers sitting in the cab and the covered truck bed. Parked in the deep, ink-black shadows of an abandoned industrial warehouse directly across the street from the primary Aethelgard Omnicare facility, the truck served as the designated triage center for the Oak Creek werewolf pack. It was also currently the most
  13. me too!!!! I need a new Jeep!
  14. Andrew has pulled the trigger on Merrick, now the poison needs time to do it's work. The third time is, indeed, easier.
  15. Argio Orell's art:
  16. I spy with my little eye, a little spy in my eye. Good morning (sorry I am late today, bad night sleep)
  17. The night was bitterly cold and crystalline clear, the kind of absolute, unforgiving December darkness that seemed to actively swallow ambient sound and stretch every shadow into a jagged, looming threat. Andrew Highmore stood perfectly still at the perimeter edge of the sprawling Merrick estate, hidden deep within the skeletal, frost-hardened trees that lined the reinforced wrought-iron fencing. He watched the massive stone house through a pair of high-resolution, military-grade night-vision go

    28 Consciousness did not return to Andy Tyrell with the gentle, creeping awareness of a mortal waking from a deep sleep. It clawed its way back into his ancient mind through a suffocating, unnatural darkness, bringing with it a rising tide of absolute, agonizing, chemical fire. For an immortal predator of his age, physical pain was a profound rarity. His necrotic biology was designed by nature and dark magic to endure almost any trauma, to heal severed tissue instantly, and to
  25. Thanks JJ, always appreciate your input/reads. I am cleaning up some of the books at some point. Need to sweep through some of the older books to deal with consistency errors.
