    Awakening

    I feel as though I am reading a Clancy-like structure - several stories going on at the same time that will come together at the end in a connected manner. Well done, indeed!
  2. Is it just Andreas and Jackie who are involved in this "project", or are there others playing parts? Jackie was definitely a user when it comes to Ludo and Damian: they were just there to provide her with an image. Evil in the form of greed, selfishness, and amorality define Jackie!
  3. Bipolar disease does happen in children but usually isn't recognized until into adolescence or later. As a counselor, I have dealt with students and referred them for professional assistance, knowing that at best, it might be tempered but not cured. My best friend was bipolar and died in an auto accident. Reading this has brought back memories - good ones, thankfully, though I did see the low side. Wonderful and masterful writing, @CasualWanderer82.
  4. I can definitely see Toby and the girls developing a friendship over mutual outdoor interests. Toby will be able to expand the girls' interests in bugs and plants. The photo shoot will definitely be interesting for all the reasons cited in other comments. And a possible foursome? Or maybe even a five-some with Russ Kahn? My mind is blowing up!

    Enemies and Allies

    Finding good guys is not always easy, but Roger knows both sides and has pointed Juan towards those he can trust. It's true that it is in who you know that counts! Roger buying the house for Thomas is a wise move - Thomas will make out well when things settle. His trust in Roger is now fully cemented. I'm eager to see young Rizzo meet his come-uppance!

    Choices

    With mob entanglement now, I'm sure there will be some twists and turns which will make the story even more interesting than it already is! So much going on...I was torn between love and wow as far a emojis. This is quite intriguing!

    Use Me

    Bunny is going to have to face his brother, but will need the confidence that can be gained by acceptance by Jamie. Let's see what happens!
  8. Or perhaps we will.....
  9. So many philosophies try to answer the basic question you have posed: what happens at the end of this life? End, beginning of another, reincarnation, resurrection to a new form, lights out.... Thanks for your question and possibility... the journey either ends or continues in another form. Guess we'll all find out at some point!
  10. This is a wonderful story about a man with the ability to see auras around people which can tell him whether they are well, sick, lying, or in danger. He uses this knowledge in ways that are "inappropriate" when he is young to majorly assisting him in his work as a lawyer/politician. Additionally, his talents lead him to unexpected jobs with interesting consequences. Lee Wilson's ability to weave an interesting and gripping tale will keep an reader looking forward to the next paragraph, let alone a sequel.
  11. Lord, help me to accept the things I cannot change, to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference! Thank you for a brief respite for which I shall return often!

    Dazed and Confused

    @empath says: I think I could spend 10 more chapters digging into the characters, telling how they got here and setting the stage for where they are going. I won’t though (one more chapter should get us through [the day] I think). I certainly wouldn't mind an additional 10 chapters! This story is so riveting! Would that parental love would be so open to change! What a world of difference it would make for children! Imagine, parents loving children for who they are rather than who they have envisioned them to be! Of course, that would also require parents to encourage and promote ethical and moral personal and social mores!
  13. With all the fake videos that are produced today, it is within total belief that such a scenario could occur! Well done!
  14. I can believe that Jackie truly had no real love for either Ludo or Damian - maybe "warm feelings" at best. Her first love is herself and what she feels she deserves from life. Ludo is truly a victim but a superb parent! His interaction with Damian is always based on truth, trust, and respect in regards to Damian's age. That will always serve him well in their relationship. Arthur is a great partner. That they can discuss openly their past relationships and history without judgment is only serving to build a solid relationship. The local police are doing their job, but seem inadequate with technology. This could lead to false conclusions. Again, masterful writing! I agree with @damejintymcginty - another 200 chapters would be a good start, lol!

    Resolved?

    Wonderful chapter...there was a whole section of statements made by Mr. Cicero that should have been objected to as "having no foundation" but still made for good courtroom drama with the appropriate ending.
  16. Wow, wow, wow! Powerful chapter...my anxiety level went up ten-fold! I can't even imagine a time when the defense budget would be so slim as to not be able to counter such an invasion (even in an idealistic situation). How long till the next chapter?
  17. You'd best believe it is not over! Psychopath that Dexter is (hmmm...reminds me of a tv series from HBO, lol), more "excitement" is to come. Laura can marinate in her self-absorbed bs.
  18. It has taken time for Ralph to stand up for himself, but he did so respectfully and solidly. His father did listen to his wife in determining whether to help Nolan and Verne with pointers. Perhaps they will slowly come around eventually (though doubtful) and accept Ralph, Nolan and the girls for who they are.

    Keep on Truckin'

    A man of principle and the courage to stand up for his beliefs. Need more of his type in all levels of government!

    Defensive Maneuvers

    Hmm...did "Uncle" participate in any abuse? I'm eager to find out too!
  21. I agree with @CincyKris: Jackie was a sham! She used the marriage and her child as a cover for her own focus on herself. That totally fits in with her comment that Ludo ruined it all by finding himself via Arthur. As for the police - they always want to look closely at those who are closest to a perpetrator or victim of a crime - the spouse and family, close friends. Just wondering if Dl Donaldson is a bit homophobic and looks down on Ludo! He wants to see something that is not there, perhaps making it easier to solve the crime. Great writing continues!

    Moving On Up

    I'll show you where my mind was when I read the chapter - You started a section with this: Journey - 1981 Hence, I thought that was the year this was occurring. Duh!

    Moving On Up

    Let me see -- he was AG in approximately 1987 or so. I am not aware that dash cams and teens with cell phones were happening then (then again, I might well have just been totally oblivious of these at that time)... Nonetheless, a wonderful story where Avery is using his talent for the good.

    Chapter 40 S2

    It would seem to me that transitioning should take a back seat for a while until he heals. Patience is a tough thing to practice!
  25. So, what's happened with Therese? Thought she might be planning to flee, but actually shows up as a supportive friend to Ralph!
