Hear you about the communication, it needs to be open and honest with no bullshit games and holding back, which seems to be difficult for these characters ... I read it as Matt and Wade being monogamous but talking about having a one off together, kinda like Brad and Jake. He was an assistant of some sort when JP went to France in the 60s, he was a friend and a pimp of sorts to Stef when he was hustling and he was the one Brad cheated on Robbie with (under duress) when they spend his 16th (?) birthday in Paris. He might have slept with Jeff as well, can't remember that. Timeline should work if Fab is Will's age as long as Marc Sievres did not die before mid 1980s and I can't remember when he did exactly.

Wonder what it will feel like for Fab to realize he slept with people his dad had sex with as well? Glad this openness is happening, Will is really maturing and finding his voice in the family! I spent the last month rereading the whole CAP saga and I love that this very diverse group of people get shown in such fine detail and with such attention to each of their personality quirks! Just a continuity question: is Jorge supposed to be the guy Will slept with during the Goodwell ambush? Cause that guy was named Ramon in that situation. Or did he just sleep with multiple of those security guys?

"I'd fucked lots of guys by now, but nothing like this." Correct me if I'm wrong, but as Matt is mostly passive he has not actually fucked all that many guys. I recall JP, Stefan, Alejandro and Matthew - and now Cody. In relation to who all fucked him (especially one-offs like the cop and the trucker) his partners for active penetration have not been that many ... Love how they deal with emotions in this, regarding the kidney transplant as well as the love confessions!

"Probably about as plain vanilla as it gets in bed, I thought. He'd probably freak if he found out I fucked two 60 year old guys in a limo. Twice." I so had to laugh about these few sentences. Always love a reread of Bloodlines, Matt is a very deep character with lots of flaws and even more personality highlights So yes, Robbie is freaking out - but not because he slept with two "old" guys (never mind that Stef is only 52 or sth in this, right? He'll be right pissed to be described as 60!) but because it was these two. Also: love the plain vanilla assumption, especially Unrelated other comment to the cop scene (which is kinda disturbingly hot) : he did have unprotected sex before - with Cam. He was leaking Cam's cum when he was fucking Ashley on prom night ...

Dear Will, welcome to the world of polyamory issues - a whole new can of worms you just opened :DD I'm looking forward to seeing how this self-discovery will go and how people in Will's life will deal with his new outlook Great chapter again!

I am embarking on another reread now and I am already smiling from the first chapter alone. I love your quip about the church: "They'd have buggered him every night. No, that was not to be the fate of his son." Awesome introduction, this. I hope your health keeps up and you are not overly handicapped by the current situation!

When I read through this series for the first time, this chapter had just come out. Now, a few rereads and some chapters later, I still find the start to this story, the whole setup and the cornerstone of unfolding events, to be spectacularly thought out and written. I applaud you, dear Mr Arbour, for your ingenious storytelling!

I know this really is not the right chapter for it, but happy 59th (?) birthday Brad! can't wait to see what trouble you will get into next!

I totally love all of the series but I think I always look forward to all the Matt drama most - that, and Will

You might not want to put this in the open like that and majorly spoiler first time readers ... I agree with the sentiment though.

Now that I knew what to look for regarding hints for this story arc I totally asked myself how I could have missed it before, it was that obvious Nicely written as always, very tasteful portrayal of death and personal crises - even though I really can't condone the dubcon scenes inbetween ...

I just love how JP starts out in this - as a return (return return) reader I absolutely appreciate this side of him - and his early views on the world, sex and people in general. I especially love his naivité towards Thank you, Mark, for this awesomely epic series - I totally fell in love with that family!

Aaaaand, I'm also waiting for the big reveal of it really being Alex who pushed Carter in front of the truck, not the other way around

What wouldn't I have given for Carter to record the conversation with Alex and show it to Aron, that would solve sooooo many problems (and create more, since there was reference to the bodyswap, s#!t) ... Great chapter, loved how honest Carter was with himself and Mark 😍

Well done Laura, keeping us all totally on edge again! I disapprove of you making us wait another week before A and C see each other though Still love your style and looking forward to next week's installment
