  1. A lovely chapter Dodger! I agree with CG about the probability of a girlfriend in the near future, but I think Robbie and Tom are, for all practical purposes, over. There will be no 18 year old rekindling. They each have a few years where other relationships are going to develop. And while there's more 'Tom time' for you to disclose, I think he's basically straight anyway. Unlike Robbie, I can't wait for school to begin!!
  2. Ah young love! I hope Tristan doesn't overdo it ...hehe What he has to do is bring Scotty with him next time. It'll kill two birds with one stone! Artie and Scotty will both forget him.
  3. During our run, Twoey asked more questions about Danny. Actually, he was asking about Danny's father. In particular, he wanted to know if Danny's father was ever physically abusive to him. As I said before, Gary and I saw bruises on Danny when he was younger but we don't know about now. I didn't think so. Anyway, I didn't even need to glance at Gary to know what he was gonna say. “No, Twoey, we never saw any signs of anything like abuse.” Ha! Did you expect he was gonna give up our friend to th
  4. Oh WOW Comsie!! Billy and Jessie on the same day! I'm gonna go out and buy a lottery ticket!

    Crisis

    Thanks Tim! You're sure correct about relationships. Hopefully Ian will begin to understand as this un-story continues.

    Crisis

    Thanks for the review CG! SneakyDragon eh? Just to allay your fears, they won't all be like that ...well, maybe some ...hehe

    Crisis

    Thanks Defiance! I think it'll work.

    Crisis

    Thanks AC, especially from someone who knows how to write! I don't understand how, but a bunch of these little scenes came tumbling into my mind. I was going to begin a new story, but determined it might be cuter to let the stand-alone scenes define the characters.

    Crisis

    It was worse for Ian. He was new at relationships. Ian believed a disagreement predicted trouble ahead. This had been an actual argument! He knew it was finished ...over! He had raised his voice to Miles! Why had he slapped the table? Why had he walked out to find himself here at the corner store buying a pack of cigarettes? He gave up smokes two years ago for gosh sakes! His New Life Resolution as he graduated college. I’d better start looking for a place to live, he sadly concluded, exhaling

    Some flash-fiction. A series of brief episodes, captured for your enjoyment.

    Chapter 1

    That was great! a perfect little story. A wonderful perspective. (You're not part Lab?)
  12. Thanks Lisa. Tommy seems to have all the streets smarts between the two brothers, doesn't he. And you're right, Twoey and David seem to be able to hit it off well. I wonder if Tommy agrees ...haha

    Chapter 16

    A Good and Interesting chapter, Mark! It shuffled the players a bit and concentrated on the family. In a way, the war with ED had distracted us from this. I'm worried about JP though ...unless he's in there hatching a plot, but I'm worrying.
  14. OMG CG, not at all!. I never meant to imply that sex didn't belong in anyone else's story. In fact, there's plenty of sex in my story and more yet to come. What I meant to say and probably didn't achieve too well, was that this story has lighter feel (to me, the author) and while the sex is there, stopping the flow to absorb a detailed scene would impede the forward momentum that even I felt as the story was being written. Haha ...even that description was pretty clumsy, no?
  15. Thanks Defiance for a really nice review and (blush) that last comment. Danny I'll even overlook your harshness with poor David - after all, he doesn't know the rules for the situation he's in
  16. Thanks for your insightful comments CG! Yep, I'm starting to get worried about Danny myself. You've never been in poor David's corner
  17. Thanks for the review Parker! Yes, Danny and Twoey do sort of connect. First time we've noticed any 'love' anywhere in this story, I think.
  18. “I'm going to Syracuse today with Tommy and his mother to do some shopping. Gonna take your advice Gary and get better clothes to look good for the girls.” “When are you getting back?” “I'm not sure, but it'll be in plenty of time. I'll call you and we can finalize our plans for tonight.” Gary turned to Twoey. “How about you? You want to hang today?” “Nah ...sorry Gary. I've got some shit I have to do.” Gary and I quickly shared a glance--it’s all we ever had to do--and figured he was gonna
  19. A great chapter Dodger! Oh wow, this does put Tom in a slightly different light, doesn't it? That'll put a new spin on the relationship as Robbie continues in Canada. I can't wait for more!!
  20. Thanks for reviewing Lisa! It seems Twoey is moving David to the untouchable shelf, doesn't it. Makes me wonder if they'll ever get together, in that way. Oh well, lots of chapters left. Hey, you're catching up!
  21. Thanks for the review (and correction) Lisa! Yeah, I guess that's the only thing David is consistent with, making a plan ...haha Thanks for the comments about the dialogue tags. Sometimes I try to write as fast as I imagine the kids talking and then need to go back to clean it up. Missed some stuff trying to get this 'to press'. Probably should have someone cleaning up behind me (that doesn't sound good). I promise to do better.
  22. Thanks for the review Lisa! Yeah, it seems there aren't any gay couples around these guys. of course they're only sophomores. Maybe Twoey will be the one who forces a more stable relationship somewhere. SD or Skinny is fine with me, as they say ...just don't call me late for dinner.
