I know that here in Colorado even if Dizzy and his mom were to apply for food stamps or something called TANIF which is basically Temporary Aid Needy Family’s it’s only a stopgap in order to help the adults time to get a good job so they can provide for their families again. The program is only allowed for up to a period of five years and once that’s gone there isn’t anymore help available other than food stamps and possibly the Medicaid program will still cover the families health care needs. I can honestly say that I’m for the TANIF program because their are people out there that will take advantage of the resources they have available to them through the program, I had to learn the program before it became what it is now because my parents got divorced when I was like ten years old and we wound up getting help from the state. Once I got married and my sons were born there was a few periods that I wasn’t making enough money to support my family so we got help from the state. One thing that would happen is that CPS will come in and remove Dizzy from his mother until they’re satisfied that he wouldn’t be in danger again from Trevor because they would make Dizzy and his mom go through counseling and then if his mom decided that they would still want Trevor to be in their lives he would have to go through therapy as well. I don’t know what the rules are for California and I’m glad that Artie and Adam are there to provide help for Dizzy. I can understand why he wants a separation between him and his mom for awhile. Great chapter and story.

I agree with drpaladin and chonga as they both have very valuable comments about the story. Danie is exactly what Kohen was hopping he wasn’t, it appears that he is the weapon that the bad guys are looking for, only he doesn’t have his coding complete yet because Fresca rescued him before they were done. I hope that Everett, Kohen and the others are able to learn enough from Danie so that they can hopefully put a stop to the things that are being done so that Central can be stopped before they can really get what they want. I believe that Fresca can and will be able to draw the information that’s needed to stop the people who have taken over Central for the wrong reason. This is a great chapter and story..

Chapter 26 - Last Leg of the Race - Sound of your Heart
Butcher56 commented on kuragari129's story chapter in Chapter 26 - Last Leg of the Race - Sound of your Heart
I hope things will work themselves out for Greyson, I can understand why he feels like he needs his independence instead of everybody trying to help him. I’m not sure about the idea of a date that Kayde pays for, even though it’s for the right reasons. The prom sounds like a great place to go and just be yourself. Great chapter and story. -
I think it’s great that Adam and Artie are getting along so well. I’m not saying they shouldn’t be doing as well as they are. I find it refreshing to see what happens when you put two unsure people together with one being the adult and the other a teenager. The circumstances of their being together is a bit odd, while they both come from the same home town in north Texas, Artie was forced to get his education in the religious school where no matter what you do it’s a sin. Artie almost had to live with his grandparents after his mom died as a result of the accident they were in. I’m glad that Arties mom had enough sense to say that she wanted Artie to live with Adam in San Francisco, CA.

I also wonder if Simon and Kitryn will be able to complete their own mating as they always seem to be interrupted with something more important that needs to be dealt with. I hope this whole seer situation will be straightened out fairly soon as it seems like there are more families being ripped apart by it. Maybe with the help of Fran they might be able to get a clear reason for the abductions or disappearances what ever you want to call them. Great chapter

It appears that Lloyd Family Corp is expanding again with the purchase of the island group known as the Wake islands. Once the Aquaria was secure in the warf that was dug out more for the sole purpose of the docking area for the sub, Hamysh went aboard so that he could make an announcement that everything would be explained in detail later. Once Jonah, Natalia, Dan, Julia, Joshua and Trenton were standing on the island just off the dock area Julia asked where they were and Dan said they were at either Midway or Wake Island, Hamysh said that he was correct on the second guess. He went on to explain exactly what he had planned for the island and it’s exact location as it relates to Hawaii, Japan, and Cairns, Australia. Hamysh also commented that whoever steered the Aquaria into the channel did a great job of it, Trenton said thank you as he was at the helm for the transition to the channel from the ocean itself. Once Trenton and Hamysh were back on the island they got into a humvee that took them to a building near some metal buildings that Trenton wasn’t sure what they were. Once inside Trenton was introduced to the petty officer who was stationed at the door and it was asked if the commodore was in and he was told that he was, Trenton and his father went up to the second floor and met with the commodore for about twenty minutes, after which they boarded a prop jet that said Air Wake Island on the side of it. They traveled to the Marshall Islands 🇲🇭 where they met with the local government in order to become great neighbors and to trade goods they would need at Wake Island, informing them that shipping would not be advised so all trade would have to be done by air service. Hamysh also stated that they already had a number of families from Marshall Islands and they are telling them that there are a lot more families that want to go to work over there. After the near two hour meeting they walked away with a verbal agreement with the government of the Marshall Islands. Great chapter and story. 👍

I love the story as a whole, the dialogue is just like a bunch of kids in high school act. If two guys are going after the same target they usually do have a rivalry going on between each other, although I think they need to be totally honest with each other about anything and everything. In this case I think Dizzy needs to be honest with Ky about what goes on between the girls he’s dated and himself. Instead of talking about it he let’s Ky think it’s Dizzy that breaks the hearts of the girls, if Ky really wanted to be the friend that he claims to be he should have talked to Dizzy about his suspicions before. I think their rivalry gets in the way of the truth. I love how Charlotte is staying out of the fight between Ky and Dizzy. To me she actually seems like the one with the most level head of the three of them, although Ky seems pretty level headed, he just doesn’t know how to talk to Dizzy about what he’s been lead to believe.

The good news for Artie is that he’s leaving the backwards way he was raised with and going to live with his gay uncle who has custody of Artie since his mom died. I don’t understand why Adam’s parents and Artie’s grandparents are so mean they really got an attitude when they found out that they weren’t going to be the ones who finish raising Artie because Adam was given custody of Artie since his mom died in a car accident. I guess the will couldn’t be located because it was with the lawyer who called Adam to tell him that his sister had passed away and he was given custody of her son, his nephew. I think it’s great that Artie decided that after what he was having to deal with by the two boys who were supposed to be his friends, but when he needed them they weren’t even around. One of the boys said he wasn’t allowed to go to the funeral or contact Artie at all, then this girl started talking to Artie only she was being rude then the school bully pulled him out of his desk and starts to try to get Artie to cry only he hauled off and kicked the bully in his groin which is how he got away. Artie decided right then saying he was done and went to the school office where he heard the secretary telling Adam that he had a terrible attitude problem and that was why he was thrown out of school and then the town.

Interesting start to the story. I can remember when I was 14 and I had to deal with magazines as there weren’t any computers at that time. I had a great friend who used to come over and we would fool around with each other. I can definitely relate to Benji as he watched so much porn in a day that he wore his boner out from over stimulation. I hope he has some great protection in place on the laptop so that no one can get into it and look at his browsing history and see that he has been watching porn. I can’t wait to see where the story goes from here. Thanks for another story. 😊

I think it’s great that Hamysh bought the island group and that he has been busy with the construction and renovation of the buildings on the island. He has made the runway bigger so as to handle the larger planes, he’s also updated the air traffic control system put in new satellite 📡 weather and air traffic antennas. As well as planning for the Aquaria to have a place to dock while at the islands. Trenton has his hands full with planning and supervising the cadets who will be involved with the planting of the trees that Hamysh planned for. Along with the planting of the trees the cadets will also be doing research in the area of the islands as well as the class work they have. I can’t wait to see what Hamysh has planned for the Aquaria while she’s there. Great chapter in the story of the Aquaria and her crew.

I would hope that the former cadet would have learned a valuable lesson from his actions. By smoking 🚬 on board the Aquaria he not only jepordized his safety but he also jepordized everyone else on the sub because if a fire 🔥 were to break out the smoke alone could cause trouble as it could get into the ventilation system and spread to the rest of the sub. I agree that he should have been honest about being a smoker and then they could have put another candidate in his place. If it was me I would have quit smoking 🚬 just to have the amazing opportunity to be on a research program like this one. The way he came out of the cell he was put in for the infraction of lying about being a smoker he doesn’t deserve to be in the program. I agree with Trenton that he has just disqualified himself from ever getting into a research position ever again because he came out and purposely bumped into Trenton as well as shoving him, if the cadet had come out and apologized for his actions he would have been able to stay in the program. I hope that the actions of the one cadet will be warning ⚠️ to the others that actions speak louder than words and they are what is getting the cadet put on a plane ✈️ to be sent home to Jamaica. Great chapter in the story of the Aquaria Research Submarine.

I think it’s going to be sooner rather than later that the two boys actually meet in person.. I have a feeling that they will become great friends because of the assignment to become pen pals and write to each other, I don’t know how often they are required to write their pen pals or anything although I think they have been going above and beyond what is required for the assignment. To me I think it’s great to have so much to say to each other and then write each other three times a week and not reveal anything about yourself so you can’t know who you’re actually writing to. Great story, I’m still enjoying it as these two boys are doing great by writing as much as they do and still not reveal anything personal about themselves in any of their letters.

I’m glad that Joshua & Trenton get along great 👍. I hope that the Atkins family will take the offer to move to executive suite b so that they would be closer to Trenton so that he would be able to spend more time with Joshua. I think Trenton did very good introducing Jonah and Natalia to Joshua. I have a feeling that Joshua is going to be spending time with all of his family. I believe Trenton is going to be very busy for the next three months while the cadets are aboard the sub, with him being the research director for the Aquaria. Hamysh is being very secretive about where the Aquaria is going to be heading once they leave Canada 🇨🇦. After welcoming the cadets aboard and the captain talking to them about where they aren’t allowed to go and then he sends them to get their maps that show where they can go and where they can’t, Hamysh sits down with Trenton and Jonah to go over their travel itinerary. Once they’re all seated Hamysh pulls out a large yellow envelope, and then the chapter ends so I’ll just have to wait until tomorrow before I get to learn where the Aquaria is going. Great chapter. I’m loving the story and anxiously wait for the next chapter to read what happens next for the Aquaria and Trenton. 😁😁😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I for one like the way that it seems that the story is actually the two boys writing ✍️ each other as pen pals. Holding true to the assignment they’re not divulging personal information to each other, the content of the letters shows that they are telling about likes and dislikes, teachers, band class and the instruments that they play. While Sherlock is the book 📖 worm Watson is the jock, they both like John Carpenter movies, and dislike a teacher named Mr Murphy. I think it’s great that they have hit it off the way they have and I hope that after the assignment ends they can get together and actually meet each other and then they can talk about their letters to each other and they can figure out if they’ve met each other before. Great story keep up the good work, I’m off to the next chapter.

Chapter 108 A Spiritual Guide
Butcher56 commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 108 A Spiritual Guide
Don thinks this guy is going to be the one who sets Robbie straight and not gay. This guy thinks he’s going to teach Robbie some manners because Don won’t, I think he has his hands full on this one. I think Robbie needs to talk to the retired social worker and see if he can help him with Mr Symmonds, I think Mr Symmonds is going to try to put his hands on Robbie in order to teach him some manners. I’m sure that Mr Andrews can help Robbie if he’ll give him a chance, I’m sure he would let Walter and Robbie use his office to have a conversation about what’s going on at home. I don’t know what Don’s secret weapon is but I hooe it’s better than Mr Symmonds is for Robbie. Great chapter in the continuing story about Robbie, it’s well written and very believable. Thanks for the great story, I can’t wait for the next chapter so I can see what Don has for a secret weapon.👏👏👍 -
Another great chapter, I’m glad that Joshua knew who Trenton is. I think it’s great that Julia has taken the time to teach Joshua who his daddy is especially since they’ll be living on the Aquaria together. Joshua told Trenton that he had already met Hamysh when they were in London for their underwater training. I love the way Trenton just took to acting like a parent when he first met Joshua. I wonder what Hamysh is up to now since he said that he has some things to discuss with Jonah and Trenton, they’ll find out this evening as he is in Quebec and he will in Halifax then. I’m glad that Natalia will be rejoining the Aquaria as soon as Jonah is able to make arrangements for her when they get to another port. It’s a good thing that Wallace is not allowed on the Aquaria so he won’t be causing any more trouble for Trenton.

I have enjoyed reading the first three chapters of the story and I can say that after reading the intro to the story that said it was based on letters that they wrote to each other being pen pals. I haven’t had any problems figuring out what their saying to each other in their letters especially when they are talking about homework and teachers that give them tons of homework at a time. To me being the grandson of an educator (teacher & principal) I can relate on both ends of the issue of homework. I was told that while in school to become a teacher they had tons of homework each day so I can just imagine how much it was for them. If they had four classes that day they would have at least two hours of homework for each class, I would say that was a lot even back then. I have experience with the same issue as the characters in the story of the amount of homework I had during my high school years, I had five classes a day that I would have homework in and it basically meant at least five hours of homework each night although I think the teachers I had must’ve been talking to each other about the homework situation, so I would’ve had homework from all five classes.
-
I wonder how Hamysh is going to take the news that Jonah and Trenton held a brief media conference on land stating that the former captain was correct in most of what he said, they did say that they would be changing the crew size at their next stop 🛑 which is classified and can’t be revealed. It was also stated that they had to make some changes to their travel 🧳 plans due to the former captain speaking to the press the way he did. Hopefully they can get the cadets on board quickly so they can get underway again. Great story can’t wait to see what happens next for the Aquaria.

I’m so in love with 😍 this story, I hope that Wes and Isaac can get somewhere safe especially since Wes needs to heal himself. Hopefully they’ve put enough distance between them and Cyrus and the rest of the pack. Wesley needs to be able to get away far enough and contact his family to get them to safety and Casey as well. I hope the story continues for awhile yet because it’d be great to find out if they get away and what happens to them when they do. Does Wesley start his own pack and stay away from Cyrus forever? Great story as always Com. ❤️❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
-
It looks like Wes is out of chances for mistakes with Cyrus. I wondered what Cyrus saw in Wes that was so different from the rest of the pack and why he’s taken such an interest in the way he teaches him how to be a good member of the pack. There’s so much more for Wes to learn about being a wolf 🐺 and the best way for him to learn is to obey Cyrus until he gets a lot stronger than he is right now. If what Evren said about Wes being an alpha is right then Wes might be able to start his own pack once he’s strong enough to break the connection he has with Cyrus and the pack. I believe that Wes really needs to just fall and embrace the darkness rather than trying to fight Cyrus every so often.

Well this is quite a turn of emotional trials. I hope that there won’t be any issues with Trenton’s former girlfriend and his son board the sub to join Commander Atkins as he is now married to Julia. I think it’s great that they want Trenton to be involved with Joshua by being in his life, along with Trenton he will also have his grandfather Hamysh involved in his life as well. I’m glad that Jonah is going to be captain again only this time because the replacement captain quit rather suddenly. Jonah will be without his family this time and he will only be in charge until they get to Valletta, Malta 🇲🇹, then he’ll rejoin them again in the Indian Ocean two weeks later. I think it would be nice to have Jonah’s wife rejoin him when he comes back aboard in the Indian Ocean. Only this time without Wallace anywhere around. I’m glad that they have faith in Commander Atkins ability to captain the Aquaria. Great chapter in the story 📘 about the research sub Aquaria and the crew aboard her. You have an amazing talent for writing ✍️ I look forward to reading 📖 the next chapter when it’s posted.😃😃👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍👍👍
-
Great chapter I can’t stop reading this story. I hope for the sake of Wes that he doesn’t have a hallucination when they go to take care of the threat they received from the older brother of Robbie. If the hallucinations that Wes is having right now are any indication of what’s to come he’s in for one hell of a time, I don’t know if they’ll get stronger or not but it’s going to be very hard for him if they do. I think it’s great that they can laugh at Wes for the hallucination he just had because of his reaction to it, after Cyrus warned him that it would happen. I hope that they get in get the job done and get out quickly. I wonder if Wes will call Clark and then meet up with him and have a lot of sex in a short time.
-
Well it appears that the captain might have thought that Trenton was under his authority only to find out that he isn’t. The captain didn’t take the rejection of Trenton saying he would meet him in the deck 2 conference room in 20 minutes very well and he came storming into Trenton’s suite when a very loud knock was answered by the steward. Poor Nigel just about got knocked down from the captain pushing his way into the suite just after Nigel opened the door. Then after being told by Trenton that he was not a member of the crew and that he said he would meet him at the time and place he said he would the captain then went and called Hamysh raising his voice while he complained about Trenton not bowing down to his authority. I hope that the captain will respect Trenton from now on knowing that the first officer was the go mediator between the captain and Trenton so that they don’t clash any more. Now that the Brazilian government has denied the access to the island where they were supposed to be doing science 🧫 research, because of the government saying they couldn’t go there they’re now enroute to the next location. After Trenton had a meeting with the two sterwards and his assistant then he called the science officer and told him that he wanted to meet with the entire science team and that the meeting would be in the deck four science work center. Then there was a knock at the door and when it was opened the first officer was standing there and was told he could come in. I guess we have to wait for the next chapter to see what the first officer was wanting. Great chapter and story, I love it so far who knows what he wanted.
-
To me it seems like Kohen didn’t truly trust Danie. I hope that Fresca is able to learn from Danie about who built him to be what he is and maybe when she does that she might be able to help Kohen as well. I loved the comments made by drpaladin they were along the same thoughts I had only I don’t think I could put them down like he does. The bond between Kohen and Everett is a way to help Kohen stay grounded instead of having an anxiety attack every time they get into a unknown situation, especially when Kohen feels like he’s not worthy of the bond between them. I hope that Fresca can learn a lot more about how Danie was put together and how the nerves are wired to cause the AI to do harm to themselves and others who they’re told to harm, like what happened to Kohen. Great chapter and story.

The story is getting better with each chapter. Wesley is going to be learning more about what to expect from the change and other things that he’s going to have to know about. He’s going to have to learn his place in his new family and what he’s going to be expected to do. I wonder how long it’ll be before he decides he’s not going to live in this family, that he doesn’t fit with. I think that if he decides to leave again he’ll miss the sex that he gets when he wants it without having to ask. Right now Wes is going along with what Cyrus wants him to become, his original mindset seems to be able to work it’s way through the new thinking. Another great chapter in the story of how Wes goes from being the son of a preacher who won’t even listen to him when something happens whether he’s involved or not he’s always the bad boy. His good grades and everything else he was expected to do he did without anyone continuing to tell him he was to do as he was told.👏👏👍😋
