    Chapter 1

    I loved the description in this line. The voice knifed through Michael like an engine whistle, raising goose bumps on his arms and seizing all the air from his lungs. *** I'm a little puzzled trying to place when this is set. Cabooses were dropped from mainline service in the 1980's and now are only in limited use in yards and for transfers. There are only a couple of hundred still in use.

    Chapter 13 S1

    This reminds me of the failed attempt to have me take ballet lessons.

    Or hide. What could go wrong?

    Chapter 13 S1

    And we all know how much boys love wearing tights in public.
  5. The whole enchilada is a catch phrase for the whole thing.

    Who doesn't like Santy 'Devin' Claus? As to the elf costume, I'm already envisioning tights.

    Chapter 13 S1

    The business with the elf costume is another display of Devin's tendency towards controlling things without any input from Mac. Right now it's still minor stuff, but these things tend to snowball into bigger issues. The holidays were nice, but did you really have to skip all the fun they could have had with Halloween?

    Chapter 9

    Police are rarely comfortable endangering civilians in those roles. It can get complicated quickly. I'd call him an imformant. I had said earlier I think he approached them on his own. It makes perfect sense meeting in an out of the way place.

    Not what they had in mind with hands across the sea.

    Chapter 9

    I'd call it close to the nuclear option. It hit Dani in his most sensitive spot and he was defenseless against it.

    Chapter 9

    I sincerely hope there isn't an affirmative hand consenus. It would make me feel slutty.
  12. I guess this also means dressing up this morning expecting to see Steve Harvey was a wasted effort.
  13. You were supposed to pretend it was intentional to see if we were paying attention.
  14. @MyrIt appears so.

    Chapter 9

    It's also evident Marco jumped to a conclusion they went farther in their sexual activities than they actually did. From Dani's musing about never washing his left hand (Yea Lefties!), they only pleasured each other by hand. It's not the textbook definition of rendering one's self non-virginal.

    Chapter 9

    I had to laugh at Giaco's proclamation he's Danisexual, but it's a good descriptive. From the giddy bliss of the morning after, Dani is abruptly dashed back into doubt by Marco's response to his news. I hate to pin purely selfish motives on Marco, but his diatribe of anti-Giaco was pretty savage and it hit Dani hard. I hope it doesn't last long for Dani, but we still have a way to go for it to play out.
  17. I never hear this word without thinking of the BBC broadcast on June 5, 1944. "Wound my heart with a monotonous langour" was code to the French Resistance D-Day would begin within 48 hours. It's particularly poignant on Memorial Day.
  18. And right after I cover the langurs without langour yesterday.
  19. It was post a wonky date day yesterday. I waited with bated breath. Was I the only one who noticed?

    Naa, he's going to jerk you back. Unless you want to spend quality time with the old Wren in his dark chamber listening to him gnawing on your bones.

    Chapter 7

    Oddly, they raised it to 18 from 16. Alcohol consumption laws don't apply in homes and in restaurants they won't card kids with their parents. The consumption laws aren't enforced at all at public events like fairs, markets, or concerts.

    Chapter 8

    @James CarnarvonYou ask who finds a life partner at 13/14? According to someone we both know, Gianni/Angelo, Toto/Mic hele... Seriously though, it does happen. It was even more common back in the days when people didn' live so long, 15 was considered old enough to go into battle. It's also why you can find old age of consent laws with very low ages.

    I'm not sure how to take this comment since I was thinking in terms of Kalian snatching your ass back from the dead.
  24. Langurs do not have a tendency toward languor.
  25. How long before Olona adds teleporting to her bag of tricks? Sumi's in-between isn't a death place after all, but more of a pause. What part will the princess play in the game ahead?
