So the 'shy' vampire finally shows us his 'dom' side ... intriguing. And the 'strong' human loves to submit ... and tasting himself. New twisted thoughts I need to digest. I wonder whether the 'shy' is an 'act' ... PS I loved that the Duchess was a cat ... twisted prompt use.

Mmmmh. Not sure I like thoughtful Rob. But: Rob and Eric's father does remind me of someone ... care to explain, Tim? ;-)

Isaac? CE? Wow.

Puppilull, As talked separately, this feels like an exciting epi/pro/logue for the George+vampire story. I got intrigued by George given he 'sacrificed' himself to be the source of blood over decades. What kind of man would do that? And how did your shy vampire deal with the fact his soul mate aged before his eyes while he stayed 'young?' Does he dare to go through the same pain with your narrator? I hope future prompts inspire you to tell this story.

Rob checking out and appreciating male body parts. We are making progress ... step by step. And since when do you use cliffhangers???? You better deliver now. PS Rob taking a guy for the prom (one can dream).

The sweetest of sweet. Proof I cannot write romance, but you could make a fortune with it ... Congrats. JAR

Oh well. We know now Jazz/sper is not into d**k. I haven't given up on Rob yet ... and if I'm the last man standing. Very innocent, though Rob's biceps curls have a certain appeal ;-).

A very enjoyable read. I love how smart and determined Felix is. Looking forward how Dorian is going to deal with topping from the bottom ;-).

Okay ... out of my comfort zone ;-). But a "like" for that sentence: "Rob will be back in the next chapter." ;-) JAR

Well, I had think about this. But I think I found out Rob is even more cunning than I expected. He is pushing the couple so overtly and proudly in order to come across as so confident in his straightness nobody would question his preferences. And at the same time it allows him 1on1 time with Mr. Redhead - of course 'only' to give the couple some opportunity for tonsil work. But who knows what Jasper and Rob are r e a l l y up to in the gym? (Going back to my little dirty corner ... ). JAR

MetaBattles is the 4th MetaWolf book, a ‘polarizing’ and politically incorrect series of the M/M werewolf genre, with kinky sex, non-traditional wolves (scheming betas, raping enforcers and gamma assassins), a Meta suffering from PMS, and nine vampire queens – only outdone by a pack on ‘‘roids au naturel.’ –- It is advisable to read the first three novels (Meta, MetaOrigins and MetaShadowLands) before and MetaPrompts in parallel: http://www.gayauthors.org/story/johnar/metaprompts

Tim, As communicated separately I am starting to lose confidence in my 'preferences' as I continue to be most attracted to/by your 'straight' male characters. Maybe deep inside me is a straight girl wanting to come out. ;-) As said days ago I fully endorse the GingerUnitedNetwork, I'll get the T-shirt when available. While I continue to be surprised how mature, intelligent and wise New Jersey teenagers are, I have to say I enjoyed myself royally. JAR

Tim, Not sure whether I should hug you for giving us more Robgasms or condemn you for writing "(...). But Rob also liked boobs, pussy and (...)" And does Nelson know he's either a puppy or a guard dog? You know where my mind is going with that. ;-) Thanks for this precious moment of wholesomeness in my day. JAR

I love it. Took you only few words to drag me into this world. Would like to read more about it. JAR

Enlightening ... first, we know now who's the top in the relationship (normally the guy who tells the other what to wear or buys it for him ;-), second while Rob might be protective he doesn't want to be misunderstood as Jasper's boy friend, and third ... a cliff hanger? Really Tim, a cliffhanging tease? JAR's loving it. PS Can I make private suggestions about WHAT was bought?

First, I would like to express my gratitude to all my ‘MetaReaders’ for their unwavering loyalty despite devilish cliff hangers, sadistic twists and the strange concoction of main characters; to the hosts of GA for creating such a fertile space even for off-the-beat stories like mine; and to an ever-diligent and insightful Tim, whose review and preference for blonds make me blush. Meta is/was/will continue to be written to put a contrarian point of view into the world; where tall and masculine doesn’t have to be hairy, the strong doesn’t have to be top, the small doesn’t have to be helpless in need for a white (or dark) knight, the good isn’t always sweetly good and the bad has a valid reason for being bad; where ‘not talked about’ power dynamics manifest themselves conceptually and physically; and where true love – which we all seek – shows itself in many, often easily to miss disguises and sometimes in irritating ways – all off the ‘normal’ or ‘mainstream’ path. Meta is not and isn’t supposed to be a ‘normal’ story; not a normal M/M romance with one soul mate forever, not a normal wereshifter story where the big alphas dominate the small helpless, not a normal fairy tale where evil and good are blatantly obvious, not a normal ‘gay’ story where all the gay characters are so lovy-dovy-cute and good and kind and adorable that my stomach starts to revolt. It is supposed to be out-of-the-box; and irritatingly so. This is one of the reasons why the characters – in many ways stereotypical (the nerd, the loyal enforcer, the uncaring parents, the scheming villain) – have needs and behaviors that don’t fit their stereotype at all (the nerd is bossy, the enforcer submissive, the uncaring parents chosen to shape something special, and villain … well that you shall read for yourself). None of them behaves ‘normally.’ For me ‘normal’ is boring; not unique, not special, not bringing the world further by discourse, but trying desperately to fit in – mostly at the expense of one’s true needs. For all those (but mostly for myself) I wrote Meta and will write it to the bitter end (book 7). And for all others: feel free to diss it, feel free to challenge it … all of that is great. In the end I’m like Colt in that respect: all of that is better than being ignored. In case you would like to continue this conversation feel free to drop me a mail (MetaWolf@gmx.com). When MetaWolf 4 (MetaBattles) will be published I will also open a new forum to enable maximum ranting. JohnAR

You knew it already. But I'm in love with Rob. Thanks!!! Seems he's good with his tongue as well ("You need to be taught better manners, and since your parents and your teachers haven’t done it, peer pressure will have to do?") ;-) JAR

I quote: "Apparently, I also told her there was nothing wrong with having sex with a guy, and I’d done it too. The last part is a lie.” The last part was a lie. Are we sure, Tim? Are we really, really, really sure? Thanks for continuing this story (so I wonder why they can't find something more naughty to do than ice-cream - and no, I'm not referring to sex but to the fact that teenage boys always get in trouble). JAR

Contrarian as I am, I'll whisk you to the long winter in Sweden with snow in April: http://www.gayauthors.org/story/johnar/metaprompts

Carlos, You should warn your readers that you're talking about horny straight men ;-). Enjoy your Sunday, JAR

MaryAnn in Gone with the Wind ... http://www.gayauthors.org/story/johnar/metaprompts

What where the odds an "owl" would be included in a prompt? A reoccurring theme in the Meta universe. Thanks. http://www.gayauthors.org/story/johnar/metaprompts/4 As this snippet takes place before chapter 1 of the first book, it is one way to get into the saga ... JAR PS: I guess Carlos will win this again for the most succinct solution ;-).

Thanks for being a voice of reason!

Thanks for challenging me to put a "turtle" into a story set in Poland ;-). http://www.gayauthors.org/story/johnar/metaprompts/2

Little snippets set in the MetaWolf universe, inspired by prompts, of different length, posted in irregular intervals, mostly dark, sometimes light-hearted or steamy, always adding to the overall story. Most likely not enjoyable without being familiar with the MetaWolf series (Meta, MetaOrigins, MetaShadowLands and MetaBattles so far).
