'Just For Men'? I actually had to look that up! It sounds like an especially fine red wine produced from very gay grapes!

Thanks, Gary!

Haha! You pose some interesting questions! I have already started on the Christmas story, so will need to consider some of what you asked about. Thanks for reminding me of things that need to be done!

"Cocky looking fellow," Kippy said, smiling at the statue of Fenster Wolfbridge. "Bet he was a handful in his day." "He does look rather forceful, doesn't he?" Horace agreed, smiling at the figure on its marble base. It was superbly done, and looked almost like it could leap down off its plinth and simply walk away. Ricky, also examining the statue, made a surprised sound. "He looks pretty old, though. Look at that beard!" "It was common for even young men to wear beards at that t

Sort of. Zeitgeist for places, instead of eras.

Oh, all is fair in love and fiction!

Wait! Not until after we get to present the award!

It's not a beheading offense around here! We just need to know where to send the award!

What good would it to be to be magical and not have fun with it? Now, I ask you!

To most people, the elves look quite human. A bit smaller in stature than average, but not so much that it is to be commented upon as unusual. Kippy finds them an especially appealing race, thinking that 'cute' is a requirement to be an elf. Rhea would feel their power, but she could in no other way discern that they weren't as human as she is. Other things, well, you'll have to wait a little to see!

What a rootin' tootin' idea!

Who started this punfest?

Well, I can't tell you before the right time! Want me to spoil the story for you??? 😉 Keerby has ethics. I don't know if football - as strong a reason as it is - is enough to get him to create a pocket universe just for a bet. 😇

Bald mountain?

What color? 🧑

Thanks! I agree that there is no way Charlie and the guys can hang out with skwish users and not have their own grow. What about your own powers? An awful lot of YOU guys seem to have a streak of prescience!

I actually have no idea. I just work here! 👻

I never try to tell the storyteller his or her story. But I can hope for the best, can't I! 😇

I know that feeling WELL!

"We weren't sure you guys were coming," Kippy said, around a bite of his burger. "We weren't sure anyone was coming." The eight of them were seated around a large table at Costigan's, a pub and restaurant that Horace had discovered near the center of town. He'd pronounced the food good, and the boys were finding it a just recommendation. It was too late for lunch and too early for dinner, and the place was fairly empty at this hour. Their table to one side of the room gave them a fair amoun

And nuttier things will continue to happen!

Lot of heat in that chapter! Interesting concept of how werewolves come into being. Can't wait to see that happen!

Sad to see the mixed reaction Eric has received, but not unexpected at all. There seems to be a defective gene out there that results in a lack of compassion for some people. Only being able to utilize half a brain seems a hard way to do life. Eric does have friends, though. Good thing that Adam and Andy are there, and Brian and Sandra. And Emily and Tommy, across the street. People that care. One good friend can often hugely offset even a mob of idiot teens running through one's garden. One good word can often erase many bad ones. One good example of caring can save the world. Good chapter!

The nice thing about the universe that Charlie and his friends live in is that almost ANYTHING is possible!

I suspected we were going to arrive at this moment. This chapter was exceptionally well-written, and the examination with Dr. Jergens just wonderful to read. Doc Bailey's failure was revealed, but I don't think he is totally to blame. He is evidently a product of an earlier time, earlier knowledge, and earlier procedures, and did as well as his experience allowed. I think Dr. Jergens was correct, that Doc Bailey would have eventually modified his diagnosis had Mitch stayed around. I don't think Mitch should run right to anybody with the news just yet. He has to accept that news himself first, understand its implications, and examine his options now. Another twenty or thirty years of life is a LOT! He has actually taken some very good first steps at securing that life, without even knowing he was to have it! Wonderful chapter, Gary! I feel like the rest of this story will be quite fun to read.
