A very sad chapter, but one that needed to be in the story. Having been told some of the backstory in this, my heart goes out to them. Thank you.

tim, my friend. When you first posted about your walk in the DiC, I was mesmerized by it. Adding in the poems, turning it into a Haibun, all I can say is wow. Purely magnificent.

It's 1:45 pm EDT. I've been getting some major lag spikes, the website slow to respond, and failures to even connect to GA. Toshiba Laptop with Windows10 Firefox latest install Spectrum Cable from Tampa, FL Just giving you a heads up.

Also, I figured I shouldn't tempt fate, with a primordial god of love, that has become the Patron of gay men in the Pagan community. LOL, This dry spell may have ended up a lot longer than I want!

Thank you, Parker. I appreciate the feedback. The prompt when I first read it, had me in different directions, and with the series, I am working on, this felt right as a way to entice people to read the series, get a glimpse into what it running around in my head, and helped me with seeing things in a new perspective.

Thanks, tim. You're the best! Circle, shrine, and a ton of wards is the best way to handle spirit summoning. However, when one drops in unannounced and proceeds to talk about unpublished chapters, knows what's in the fridge, and can plant suggestions and urges... you got to listen. 🙂

Thank you, deville. Circle and a shrine room, are always right. Especially if you get a real angry spirit; In this case, I didn't have a choice. 😉

Thank you, Chris191070. I started and stopped this piece a few times, and then I needed a little bit of a mental break, and this one just flowed.

Thank you, Reader1810. I appreciate the comment and feedback. I had a bout of self-doubt before I posted this. I'm glad people seem to like it.

Thank you, Mike. I'm glad you liked it. I have a bottle of Absinthe here that I hardly touch. I could get my Earnest Hemmingway on and drink an Absinthe cocktail, write drunk, and edit sober. LOL.

Home alone, I answered the door and standing there before me is Eros, the Greek Primordial god of love. I invited him in because he wanted to talk.

I sat at the dining room table, the front room tv was on, and I was alone with my thoughts for now. The rest of the family had stepped out. I was prepared to do some writing on my Tampa Chronicles Series. My laptop, notes journal, and my trusted mug of coffee stood by, as I got down to work. A knock on the door stopped me in my tracks. With a groan and a sigh, I walked over to the entryway. "Just a moment." I opened the door. "Yeah, how can I help …. OH MY GOD!” He was six-foot-six-inche

Prompt #640 – Creative – Alien
Brayon commented on Brayon's story chapter in Prompt #640 – Creative – Alien
Thank you very much. 🙂 It was fun to write. I've recycled some of the stuff in this story into my Freedom Station story, that I am currently writing. That story will not be published until after it is fully completed. In Fact, all future stories will be conducted as such. -
The same thing happened to a Gay Club here in Ybor City called Tracks. Best club in Ybor at the time was exclusively gay... then the straights came in. It shut down, within a year of the gays leaving it. Never got to go, but oh so wanted too, growing up. Even now, other gay clubs in Ybor City has a lot of Straights going to it. Hamburger Mary's is one that comes to mind with the drag shows.
-
In my opinion, I think what you posted of the 80's graffiti might be as well. The whole modern concept of "No Homo" and "BroJobs" kinda fills this with Gays and Straights (or even two straight dudes) engaging in sexual relationships, in a BroMance, or Friends with Benefits, sort of way. But, as they say: "It's all fun and games until someone catches the feels."
-
This story was a fantastic Post-Post-Apocalypse story, with rich and vibrant characters. It's well written, and the visuals will make you feel you're in the story with the characters.

If I had watched this in a play, or movie, I would be giving you a standing ovation. I like how Terry took the reigns and got Dave to accept his feelings at the end. I like that he did find puppies, too. From start to finish, tim, this has been one of the better PPA genre story I have ever read. I loved it. Thank you for writing this, and sharing it with us. And thanks to @AC Benus for his excellent editing of the whole story.

This was an excellent chapter, tim. Jae was right about Terry being both gay, and into Dave. While it's sad that Jae died, the whole nature of their world is different from ours. So, I can see Dave and Terry becoming closer sooner than would be in a more normal modern setting. I just realized, that in the last chapter, that the 4 dead slaves that Dave found, were killed by the same person that killed Jae. I hadn't spotted that until I was getting ready to read this chapter. Wow. I love how you link so much together. I'm also glad that Gareth and Jim came back with Dave. They both will be safer and in a more socialized area.
-
Wow... So many good things in this chapter. From the way, Mersey and Dave interact, to him finding the bookstore, to him finding the barn and giving the dead a proper burial. I like the sense of excitement, that he and Mersey got when they were at there destination. Then Dave taking care of Jim, and how he quickly and effortless fixed the soup, tended his friend, and did some work around the farm. Then the end of the chapter... tears man. It brought tears. Excellent work, my friend. It was stellar from beginning to end.
-
Great chapter like the others. Loved that Dave realized his mistake, and took off after Jae. Gareth was a nice character, and you made me feel for him. Being an old person taking care of his self.
-
I'm so glad that this story is completed because if I had live through the week after that cliffhanger, I would go bonkers. LOL. Excellent chapter, tim. You answered the question I had about the teardrops. But even that was a twist. I feel really, really bad for Jae and his background. That must have really sucked. I loved the tender moment by the river they shared. Lovely visual all around. Fantastic that want to get married. Dave... what can I say, he messed up BIG time, with both the fight with Jae and moving from cover. Woulda, coulda, shoulda, doesn't help you when you're knocked out.

As I mentioned in the first chapter comment, this reminds me of a PPA RPG. I love it! I can see the community forming now, around Barry's Farm. I'll admit, I am worried about Jae. With the bruising and the bruised ribs, he could have internal injuries and bleeding. Just a hint of an infection would mean that there is a huge possibility for death. I adore Jae and Dave, in such a few chapters, and would hate to see something bad happen to them.
