Thirdly

First of all, there's no such thing as 'dumb' questions, so never be afraid to ask. Jany's hella rich: Yes, yes he is. He did not waste his 500 years. He pretty much made himself all that money to provide for a "love nest" that never came. Rest assured that Pax's home will either be extended to year after year (he already added a tub and a new bathroom, if I'm not mistaken), or they'll eventually end up in a mansion to rival Viktor's. Why do Mateo and Pax still work: Pax has several businesses that he helps take care of, including a good few that he helps on the side "pro bono" for his community. Mateo is a guard and it's what keeps him strong and trained and ready for anything. Though they don't have to work, they feel accomplished with the work that they do. Vamps could hear/smell them: Yes, of course. But, remember that they were seated on the very front rows, where the more "elite" vampires were assigned. The older, elite vampires 1. Think nothing of a little fun play. 2. Are polite as can be. 3. Are perverted as heck, too, so they enjoyed the sounds/scents. 4. Were probably doing the same thing. Gin and Essex certainly did some 8 rows behind them. (most of them, in any case...the snootier ones just didn't want to be 'caught in a scandal by calling them out')

Absolutely!

Glad you enjoyed reading about those two, warm and fuzzy definitely describes this one.

Didn't know you had read this one, too. This one's quite a bit old and has many flaws, but it was still fun.

:: On the Hunt :: Cean had just finished his fencing lesson when he heard nearby messengers passing the news to the guards about Prince Calum's kidnapping. He was not about to just sit around and wait. He quickly made his way to the stables, not expecting to find his younger sister there. "What are you doing, brother?" Arianna asked, seeing his urgency. "Calum has been kidnapped. I need to find him or at least investigate for myself. " He explained, getting on his horse.

:: Clearing Uncertainties :: The next morning, Renael had his back facing Sept. His cough sounded wet and he was freezing. The power had been out half the night. A radiating heat he felt all over his head was the final sign that he had fallen ill. Ren had subconsciously even turned away from Septimus in the middle of the night, as if to keep the other fox from falling ill, as well. Sept, on the other hand, had scooted closer to the blond when he felt the feverish heat coming

:: The Silver Fox :: Everything that had happened to Silkes was a blur of a nightmare. He had managed to escape at a great risk and found himself in strange surroundings and, worse, without a voice. He had lost his voice somewhere in between screaming out the incantation and stepping through the portal. When he first opened his silver eyes, he ended up gazing into lilac ones. Such a strange color for eyes, and even stranger purple tips on blond hair. As he struggled to sit up

Yes, the way I think about it sometimes is that each of our boys is the result of how that part of their shared soul developed. In the end, they all wanted the same things, but to different degrees: freedom, love, survival, companionship... In the more extreme cases, like Nolan's cruel oppression and Elias's Omega stifling, you can even note the subconscious similarities between the two...Nolan clings to warmth and touch... and, in his sleep, Eli's body tried to subconsciously reach and touch all of them. You can also note the two different cases of freedom in January and Quinlan...Quin sought out freedom and adventure, Jany had freedom and adventure thrust upon him. In the case of strong family bonds, you have Pax who valued family even more after having lost his parents versus Mateo who grew up in a big family that relied on each other from the beginning. Balance. Together, they're all balanced, ha ha.

Random Babbles, part 5: Initial Conception (before ever writing the story) Thirdly: Huh...someone on fictionpress requests for us to write a werewolf story. This is how I responded: HinderToyBL is the combination of two authors, RamblingRobin and Thirdly. RamblingRobin has a fun 'melting pot' of supernatural beings in her story Prophylaxis. One of the main characters is a werewolf. Thirdly has read many online stories about werewolves...a great "reverse harem" werewolf with one female protagonist is Fhelly's Blood Moon on AFF (adultfanfiction). A great "male x male" werewolf one is Unwanted Mate by Naga Lord, also on AFF. Another great one is the one that inspired UM (Unwated Mate), Inside Out by Evan Francisco on Wattpad. In spite of both authors having read the Anne Rice novels, Twilight, the Anita Blake series, and even the Sookie Stackhouse series...the subject has yet to come up about a possible collaboration featuring werewolves (or their general nemeses, vampires). Thirdly would have to pitch the idea in order to entice Rambling Robin into such a tale (which generally isn't too difficult, as Thirdly's a fountain of ideas) and both authors would need to find time in their busy work-college [and in RamblingRobin's case, also 'mom'] schedules in order to contemplate the plot... It's certainly possible, but it will take time. Robin: We can totally do a werewolf story if you want to. As long as I can create the characters I'm going to write and I can get excited about the story, I'm game. I honestly don't mind having a million projects going. Thirdly: jafjkwaoerpoaijweproiajs;eokajrwekrojpaowiehtfaoks; Thirdly: -happy inner implosion of squee- Robin: lmao Thirdly: we're gonna be plotting up storms and making up stuff all over the place and, of course, new babies (characters) Namesake (towards the end of the story) Thirdly: f*ck Thirdly: we never gave January a last name Thirdly: ummm ummmm Thirdly: January Vidal Aristide? Robin: Sounds great! Robin: He's so fancy

Agreed!

Success.

Oh no, Ra dealt with Apep already, so he's not a concern. Nice theories, we'll see how wrong or right you were in the sequel.

It will be a little while, and the vampire speed won't be the only thing he has to deal with. My only hint at that are woodland creatures. Yes, they are disappearing for a while to make up for lost time.

Success!

Only one chapter left. My co-writer was in the process of moving and entering a new career, so it's fallen mostly to me. We haven't forgotten about it and it will definitely be completed before the end of the year. Edit: Actually, the end turned out to be a longer stretch than I thought. It's turning out better than what was originally planned, though! Edit 2: I think I can finally, finally, say that the next chapter is the final chapter, number 15....how strange that I've ended a good few stories on that number.

Also, the @HinderToyBL Album has been updated with a headshot of Elias!

It's not that he lost control of reason, he was just spurred on through his female form for the manipulation of those strong emotions. Now that a part of him is aware of what's happening (that something's wrong with his female form), he's fighting back to regain more control.

Yes, they’re the “fun”

Quin was always meant to be a vamp, 3 to 3 was the real pattern. I just couldn't say anything about it before now. It's not quite done yet, there is still a little more, along with some fun. But, for the most part, this first part is done.

Damn. Now that I think about it, Jany probably did cope with it in his own way...through sex therapy. That redhead's just something else...

Ah, but January's more than 500 years hold, how do we know he hasn't had his face burned off before? (we do, he has...poor guy's seen and been through a lot, which is why he was the only one that could have possibly had any chance of survival fighting a god). Pax almost bled out because alphas protect their packs. And unfortunately it's not just gods they have to deal with.

Just a couple loose ends that need to be tied off. We'll see these guys again. And, yes, definitely balanced now. 3 and 3.

Ra will deal with that part himself. Anubis has a certain moon goddess/god to find, after all. As for Quin's bat form...we will eventually see it, yes.

Glad you liked the chapter and Ra himself. Eli does indeed seem like an eager puppy most of the time. Certianly living up to his reputation of 'spunky.'

Ironic that you mentioned hair and feathers...you'll see what I mean later.
