You writing reminds me so much on Anne McCaffrey!

@Summerabbacat, you bring up very valid points. I was assuming that they had previously had such a discussion. However, it is possible that they had not discussed fidelity to each other. I predict that @Wombat Bill will inform us further down the line in the story.

Obviously Thomas was thinking with his dick and balls instead of his top head. If two in a couple have not given the other a "hall pass" to sexually be with someone else, trouble can erupt. Good chapter, Wombat Bill. You must plan the stories quite a ways out for the various plots and subplots to be this believable. Well done.

Okay, so far so good. Sounds like we are getting close to observation and action. Is Toby going to be observing as well?

Well, this certainly broadens my thoughts about dance routines, Wombat Bill! I had not previously thought of those possibilities. I can imagine Tristan doing choreography of such dancing to "All Time High" (theme song of "Octopussy," one of the James Bond movies, conducted by John Barry) -- or some other soaring music. I'm sure readers and you could suggest other possible songs to go with such. If you do scenes from such dancing later, please -- include some music titles, so we get the idea.

I am having no problems seeing any comments. Both my phone and desktop computer are having no problems. Using Chrome and Edge as browsers on desktop, and Chrome on phone (Android operating system).

I definitely like the changes I've seen so far. Great redesign, in my opinion thus far.

And I would (just to be very clear) like to see Jeremy again, as well. There are many questions yet to be answered, whether in "Catering With Benefits" or in a separate story. Examples of questions-- A) How did Jeremy get started in waxing and related salon activities? Do Brett and Jeremy have a relationship outside of the salon? C) How did Brett decide to become an apprentice or associate of Jeremy? D) Are either gay or bisexual? (I am guessing both are gay or bi, but that has not been made certain. When I was in open showers in the 1960s in my Physical Education (PE) classes in high school, several guys commented on the size of my penis because I'm more of a "shower" than a "grower." So they were guessing I was bigger than the erect state actually was -- not that any of them ever found out.) So even non-directly-sexual things are noticed by males and females.

I think Chris, above, summed up well most of what I was thinking in regard to Brett. However, I think part of it may also have been that Brett was desiring to do a good job and felt he was still learning, in addition to possibly being slightly distracted by working adjacent to an admirably appealing magnificent and memorable male member, on a very attractive man.

I would like to see them both. But for some reason, especially I want to see Brett again.

I liked this chapter a lot. Will we see Brett and/or Jeremy again?

Oh, this is good! Fits in with a lot of what I have read in random (and sometimes non-random) research. I can imagine some scratching their head, but if they hang in long enough, it will become somewhat clearer. As I understand it, the angel Gabriel appeared to Joseph, and to the father of John the Baptist, and to Mary the Mother of Jesus. Some of the references are obscure, just as it was the archangel Michael who appeared to Daniel.

I have never worn a cock ring, and don't plan to do so. I have seen a few over the years. Some look pretty cool; some look very uncomfortable. It makes sense that a chastity cage would set off alarms and scanners world wide. Another good chapter, Wombat Bill. As we sometimes compliment people here in the USA, "Way to go!"

This is starting out really well. I'm eager to read more.

Great chapter! I look forward to the next part with eagerness.

Mine is very simple. One of my three names is Paul, and I like to do a variety of reading.

Well done again, Wombat Bill!

Well, I did not like the earlier stories in the Talents (Tower and Hive) series as much as the later ones. I would suggest starting with "The Rowan" and continuing with "Damia" and then "Damia's Children". then "Lyon's Pride," and then "The Tower and The Hive." When she wrote the earlier "Talents" books, [To Ride Pegasus, Pegasus in Flight, Pegasus in Space] she was still playing with the concept and developing the ideas. You can read the later books I mentioned first, if you want, without missing hardly anything. A book of her short stories I enjoyed was "Get Off the Unicorn," has some "Talents" short stories, one or two "Dragonriders of Pern short stories, and Anne's "soft porn" story, "The Thorns of Barevi," which is an "introduction" of sorts to her "Freedom Series" (very good books, Freedom's Landing, Freedom's Choice, Freedom's Challenge, and Freedom's Ransom). The book was was originally supposed to be "Get OF the Unicorn" but the publisher made an error in the title. "Thorns of Barevi" has a different ending than the beginning of "Freedom's Landing. Both are good. I enjoyed the Crystal Singer Series and several of the Ship Who Sang books. I really enjoyed Anne's short singleton book, "No One Noticed the Cat." I even enjoyed looking through her two cookbooks. Thank you for your writings.

Doesn't Price realize that if he pursues this, the truth of his relationship with Mrs. P will also come out?

I started reading the story some time back and life interrupted. It was a good story, and is a good story, but sometimes life gets in the way. I'm starting the story all over again, and will eventually finish it. I like the premise, and the characters I have read about thus far. So far, the writing is very similar to Anne's (and I mean that as a high compliment). Mawgrim, have you also read Anne McCaffrey's Wild Talents/Tower and Hive series? I liked those almost as much as the Dragonriders series. There is more overt sexuality, both straight and gay, in some of those books. In the Dragonriders series, most of the directly gay scenes seem to have been in either Dragonsdawn or Renegades of Pern (I don't remember which, offhand). I am going to have to schedule myself a "readathon" of all your stuff on GA in the next two or three weeks, and catch up. You write well, and concisely, and yet still make it enjoyable, with adequate detail such that the story is understood, not just read. Well done.

Wow, what a good chapter!

You took care of some loose ends here, Wombat Bill, and in a really good way. Way to go!

Wow, an active chapter! Mrs. P was so much more mannerly than Mr. P.

Good chapter, Wombat Bill.

We learned a LOT in this chapter.
