    Ah, Gary! The father's sensations, so gracefully expressed.

    Early December

    skinnydragon commented on skinnydragon's story chapter in Early December

    Thanks, Gary! I think you're spot-on in your analysis. The only two things unsettling, at this juncture, are whether Gary is attuned to Toph's needs and not something selfish, and what ever will Steve do. Of course, all will eventually be revealed.

    Chapter 10

    skinnydragon commented on Ronyx's story chapter in Chapter 10

    Well, Kenny played Zac like a fiddle. He knew exactly what he was doing and knew exactly how is former friend would react. After all, they were close for a long time. I guess the next few days will show Zac what the contents of his Pandora's box were. Can't wait to find out.

    Last paragraphs of chapter 2: I usually try to keep an even temper, but it’s not working today. I can actually feel myself tense up as we get to the table. But all that changes in one instant. Tom’s there with Barbie and tears are running down his face. I’ve never seen him like this and immediately my heart goes out to him. He’s sobbing. Don gets to him first. “Tom, what’s wrong?” “My father, he’s dead.” This is followed by another sob. I immediately put my arms around his shoulders from

    Hungry Heart

    skinnydragon commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in Hungry Heart

    Neat chapter, Carlos. Filled, as usual, with lots of local color! I'm glad Liz dropped that little perspective into CJ's lap. It'll no doubt be useful as he navigates life with Owen in DC.

    My Office

    skinnydragon commented on skinnydragon's story chapter in My Office

    Thanks, Def! It was nice that Chuck now realizes the man that became his father was a good guy who became the sicko later in life. That might have been important for him to know. And don't you think Carl will do a little compensating for what he sees as his failings concerning Danny?

    Broken

    skinnydragon commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Broken

    Well, has our predator-turned-prey learned his lesson yet? What will he say to his roommate? Will he be able to stay free, or is there more bad luck waiting for him? Is his tormentor still in the apartment? Will things just continue on as they have in the past? Will we all get invitations to the next party? Parker, Inquiring minds want to know!

    Fault

    skinnydragon commented on Lux Apollo's story chapter in Fault

    Relationships are difficult even under the best of times. When strains occur, courage and faith are really all one has. So, a hug and hopeful wishes from me and, I'm sure, all your friends here are what we offer. Nice verse, by the way.

    Chapter 2

    skinnydragon commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in Chapter 2

    A great chapter, tim! It kept moving forward and upward -- too well -- and then the crash at the end. I'm figuring they, with their neighbors, will combine to take a stand. But there will be casualties. So I'm sort of dreading the next chapter since you're sensitive writing has made us already like all of these guys !

    Thanks, Jay! It's gonna end sooner than you think! Only one final chapter to go!

    Thanks, tim! Yeah -- Toph's not gonna take crap anymore from anyone. Thanks for enjoying the development of Gary&Toph.

    skinnydragon commented on skinnydragon's story chapter in Late July

    Thanks, Lisa! About j's initial -- you'll have to wait one more chapter. Obviously Toph never thought much about MaryBerry, or whatever her name was. I thinks Toph was more surprised that his family at how he began to get along with them. His father surprised him the most -- maybe he misread him when he was a 'mixed-up teen.'

    Thanks, CG! You're right. He covered a lot of emotional ground in this chapter. There's just a little more to go, but I think he's ready for it.

    Thanks, jess! I think you're correct. Toph must have felt this half of July was jelly on his toast. Just one more hurdle to jump.

    Thanks, pvtguy! Empowering is a great word. And I think you're right about something happening at the upcoming dinner. Let's hope it's good.

    Thanks, Randy! He certainly is getting more confident. Let's hope his mother doesn't interfere with him again. I guess she needs an attitude adjustment.

    Thanks so much, Parker! Thanks for the nice comments. This was a sort of healing chapter for Toph, wasn't it?

    Thanks, spikey! Thanks so much for your nice comments. I think you might just be correct about his father. In his conversation with Clarence, the fact Toph recognized he was a little messed up as a teen says a lot.

    Thanks, avidreadr! You're right, the parents' meeting will be the final hurdle for our rapidly maturing boy.

    skinnydragon commented on skinnydragon's story chapter in Late July

    Thanks, Lux! It's interesting to see Toph putting things in perspective. Even the confrontation with Mother was addressed, and then he moved on. It's unlikely that could have happened six or nine months before.

    Absolutely, you can do it! Good Luck, Hunter.
