Bold action Go Jackson

That's exactly it! When he gets better, if they marry, he should change his name. Stop being the world famous, sad drug addict, broken musician with a terrible past "Ryder Sullivan", and maybe he can find another person, a happier person, in "Ryder Haner". That's part of what I meant was I suggested that he might change musical styles. He can't go back to the past, but maybe he can find a way to build a better future.

Ok I admit that sometimes I am not the biggest fan of Oliver, but I really loved his interaction with Teddy and Ryder. I think slowly he is starting to SEE them. Blake was in shock But it is understandable, between being Teddy's friend, so in the "I should hate Ryder for what he did" group, his love for metal (so admiring Ryder) , missing a friend for 13 years, together with the news of an hang out with Mike, he must be feeling pretty confused. Still waiting for Liz reaction. Hope Ryder was just having his night fears after an exciting day. Teddy is there for him, he can't doubt that. And therapy might start helping, actually Teddy should ask the same psychiatrist for Oliver, it might give Oliver more confidence knowing that it is the same as Ryder and Teddy (I assume Teddy had the same one, since he knew about his post-Ruder depression and meds).

It is hot, but also very sweet, what they feel for each other. Just tell him our love him and don't want to be apart Erik!

Yes! So happy for a new chapter! Yoshi was great controlling his army, Terra are proud but I believe they would die before being disloyal to the Empire. I believe they will leave "Midori's problem" to the Empress. And for that Yoshi seems to have a decent plan, after the battle Midori will be on his side at all times, specially entering the palace. Even if unhappy about it, in the end the Empress will accept, I believe, she loves Yoshi, and she need a heir after all.

Great chapter, so many contradictory emotions. Yes it annoys me that Oliver is rude spoiled boy most of the time, but I am also proud that invthe end he defended himself and his family. The small interactions between the family, Ryder included, might be the beginning of something better.

Nice chapter, the baby is so cute

Great chapter, again... It is interesting how hearing a bit the perspective from a character that a couple of chapters ago was not in my good side humanize it again. It is almost like I can feel Mrs. Haner sadness for what became of her family, but also a a strong resolution. Sure the parents probably did some mistakes, but Oliver IS a difficult kid. It was nice to see Ryder and Teddy having a moment of physical caring, they needed that. Having a gay brother and seeing a normal relationship with the parents, I am not sure if it is true worry about sexual orientation or just inability to talk to the parents. Kids need help and communication, and the four of them in that house grew apart in a way that makes it difficult. Same with Oliver and Teddy's relationship, I feel that it is not that Oli doesn't believe that Teddy can help; when it is super important for him he talks to Teddy, he did talked with him about sexual orientation and now to "share the jobs" in Ryder's recovery; it is more like he doesn't want to rely on him because of their lacking relationship. That would Ryder's true help, making Oliver wanting to love Teddy.

Interesting chapter, raises more questions than answer... I felt bad for Grim, but his honor didn't let him leave the others, which was beautiful. Prism and Grim seemed to have a strong connection. Now when they can stop for a bit, I think Prism has to stop ignoring the obvious, that he doesn't know what is up with the world, and talk with Styx about what happened since the war with the demons, maybe telling some things to Styx about hat time as well. I understand he want to meet his old friends, but he should meet Neredos with his eyes open, and the perspective about the world from a of a poor boy living in the the Shade might be interesting. Was this the world they envision when the fought the demons?

Yeah, Robbie has trouble in making decisions and Nathan does know how to play him. And you might have notice in my other comments in stories that I do like to enter in the characters' minds, not only comment their actions. I think it is fun and different from reading already written book. Of course I am probably wrong most of the time.

Very cool chapter, we guessed correctly and Tom is visiting. I just hope Robbie and Nathan stay together and don't hurt each other, they are so cute together and I really like Nathan. Robbie has some "control" issues when I comes to Alex, which I am not sure are very good for him. Part of me questions if it is only the sexual thrill and he can't stop flirting, or if his mind is recreating his relationship with Tom in a messed up way. Not the hitting part, but wanting to feel someone controlling him from time to time, since when he felt broken and with his life in pieces, Tom was around to control it and make it easier for him.

very beautiful chapter! I love Noah

I wanted to use the happy emoji and the sad emoji. Most of the chapter was very nice, but it was so sad that Noah lost his mom. Good thing they called Charlie and Jacob, at least we will be with people he already knows.

Nice chapter. Ryder and Oliver interactions were cool, although I am still a bit worried if they will learn what they need to learn from each other. The possibility for their interactions to be destructive is still there, specially for Oliver since he is so young. In my view Ryder needs to learn how to care for others, to put them first, not generally as in "my fans, or followers", but in the individuals that are around him in his life, something he never did or hasn't done in a while, as he was stucked i prisoner of his own mind and pain (not saying that it was without reason). Oliver doesn't need a music mentor, but maybe by living together with Ryder, having him as a friend, he can kill the Ryder-god and start seeing the Ryder-person. Hope he learns from Ryder's mistakes that he should NOT be like Ryder and has to be his own person, Damn (I am trying to reduce the F words, lol) the "being the best, staying on top, use all your anger", play because it is FUN and it makes you and others feel good.

Great, so interesting story, really like mystic feeling, and the internal journey of struggles.

This story put a smile on my face. The fear is there, but also the will to grow and be happy. Makes you wish they work out.

Love the ring story. It was so sweet. Thank you

Actually it is not impossible. We all know that CJ, while a t-shirt kind of guy normally, likes to dress well, with his $5000 Tom Ford suits. So I see many possibilities... Super formal White Tie (whit bowtie, black jacket), Formal black tie (with the inverted option of white jacket on black bowtie), or even white man wedding suit. Whatever it is, I just see them going exactly the same colour, as I don't think any of them will open to jokes about being the "bride".

YES!!! Weeding! So cute!! I always thought CJ was going to be the one proposing! Now, they might wait a couple of months, but will they move out? (was that CJ true reason to buy a house, although saying it was and investment?) Awesome chapter

He should tell the captain about that talk. It would be nice for him, even if stressful, to go outside. And he was missing water, so I am happy that's a water rich planet.

Like all the enlightened protectors, if kept unchecked with an immense power, they became tyrants. It seems that not only Shade, but all kingdom not in the clouds dislike the knights and the sky city. Kirra seems nice thought, maybe in the wrong side of history.

byyeeeee! Nate is gone, it couldn't have been to soon. Sad for cement house, what Teddy found much be hard to see, but happy Ryder left the hospital. Curious on how he will adapt to the new environment. It is interesting that Ryder realises he needs music to live, but at the same time said already several times that the story was over, he didn't have more inside him. Since teories as cheap I am going to say a crazy one: Ryder used all his anger, sadness, screaming and aggressiveness in metal to tell his story. My hypothesis is that he will return to music when he recovers and start feeling better, but not to metal, he will move to something more rock or indie as a away to express a new life, more content feelings, hopefully the new opportunity in love (no I don't see him ever doing obvious pop). We know from when he was young that he can sing almost anything, and only the greatest musicians would be able to be the "Music" King in different genres.

Interesting story, with very mature decisions. Great tale.

Great story. Hope Blake found what he was looking for one day, without hurting any girl. Jason was a good guy, and maybe they would be wonderful together, but he knew it was not the right time an was honorable about it. Wish him a great future.

Still curious about Carter and Beth fight, and why I thought it was strange that Jackson appeared. But still they went home and it was awesome. They are getting close and Carter opened up and talked a bit with Jackson. Pretty hot a action, even if one sided.
