Hunter Thomson

Or not Chat really did bring us all together. I hope it comes back one day when we're all able to make it work.

Nighty night, sleep tight!

Cheeky boi

You, my dear, are gorgeous.

You'd like that wouldn't you. Enjoy the mental images of Hunty and football player.

Small world! @Renee Stevens I'm going to Denver on the 15th for an LGBTQ athletes conference. So many gay males... @Mikie SHHHH, I ALREADY PROMISED TO BEHAVE!

Does anyone have any fun summer plans?

I know for certain my body does this because I sometimes feel myself re-enacting my recurring dream of falling down a flight of stairs.

My heroine! @Renee Stevens

@Mikie Super Mikie Mod... why?

LOL SOCKS. I'll try that. They look and feel like scratches.

I roll around on my bed a lot before I go to sleep. Part of my routine to roll around and find *all* the cold spots on the bed and to lay there until it's not cold anymore. Like the opposite of a cat.

Mikie is being mean, someone hit him with the mod stick. @Renee Stevens I don't think there's anything like that going on. It's got a bedsheet covering it and the cuts always happen in different places.

@Mikie You love me for being such a living catastrophe.

I have no pets that could be doing it to me. I do not sleep with anything sharp, not even my wit.

Y'all sweet. I'll be okay I think. Just as soon as I stop being clumsy and hitting things/walking into things/biting myself. Also, waking up with random cuts in my skin when you went to bed without said cuts. That's not a thing that should happen..

Horrors. This wasn't supposed to be wine bread I hope haha. If I get progressively more sloppy, we all know why.

I'm seriously worried about this bread. This is not normal... But yeah, grad school and boys and no job and way too much time thinking has made Hunty a tad depressed.

Hunty is stressing about grad school, and is intently curious about why his bread smells like a bottle of wine. Seriously, it's intoxicating, and bread is not supposed to be that way.

Hunty-hunt! Miss Renee, I have missed you. How are you darling?

Mikie has summoned me!

Everything in this chapter worked. All of the interactions between the characters, including how Declan talked to Justin and the rest of the Gymnastics team and defensive unit. I found it really interesting how the defensive players were fed up with Chris and his antics, but the players on the team's offense still seemed to be supporting Chris. That'll be something to watch for when the next stupid thing happens, and of course there will be another escalation by Chris. It hurts a bit to see Bailey be so closed off and unwilling to open up, even to people he trusts. The worst part is we can see that he wants to, but he's not ready to let himself do that again. Part of that is obviously due to what happened on the Pitbulls, but losing his father has really sapped Bailey of a lot of his inner strength. It's good that Declan seems to understand him enough to know what his reactions are like and how to address them, but Bailey has a lot of work to do right now. One day, they'll be a good couple for each other. But right now they're exactly what they should be; two guys learning about each other and trying to figure each other out. Thanks CM, another great chapter.

That's a good point as well. I forgot that Declan knows about the forced confession. But I think if he knew the extent of it, he would have confronted Chris at the cafeteria.

Ooooh, that's right because Bailey did use to play. That's going to come as a surprise to most of the football guys, and I can absolutely see Chris trying to humiliate Bailey again, just like with the pushup competition. Chris seems to have it in for Bailey, so he'll probably try to punish him even though none of the other gymnasts would likely have played football before either.

Perhaps, perhaps not. I've torn a hamstring and while it's not the same as a groin pull, it's definitely not the same area as where Bailey has been doing it. Now that I'm thinking harder on it, there's no reason for there to be an injury based on the hip. Nothing that would make sense in the context of gymnastics. There's no ligament or muscle grouping on the front of the hips that would get tense to the point of causing pain when you touch it. If Declan knows his muscle anatomy, he'll figure that out as well.
