Ohmygosh!! The chapter went so fast!! Why am I thinking that twinky bitch is projecting his crime onto Carter, trying to beat him to the confession punch, thinking Carter might remember and tell? Guess the bitch really is back. What is Aron thinking? Is he hurt? Confused? He can’t still want to give that succubus a chance? Good cliffie, Rump; I want it to be next Sunday already.

“Alex had to be a magician. Or simply, an expert in playing people. Because both Aron and Simon were smitten enough to think that Alex’s whims were just the result of an unhappy childhood or something like that. Somehow he wasn’t buying it. The guy seemed an emotional chameleon, capable to change to get the others fall for him.” Nope. Sorry. Short of him living in a concentration camp, I cannot excuse Alex’s behavior on a bad relationship with his folks. And all the buying from Aron and Simon!! Dude is a grifter, a true psychopath. So Mark knew what was going to happen when “Alex” went to the hospital, hence his “goodbye”. He’s still a mystery but what’s one more in this story, right? ☺️ Now the switch back has been made. Tho Alex was in Carter’s unconscious body, did he have any trips through the looking glass, too? It’ll be awful if he’s exactly like he was before. Next week’s installment will definitely be a revelation. Good job, Rump.

I thinks he’s bi and wants to hookup with Noah too, just not too sure of his motive behind it.

Sebastian seems like he would get Noah drunk and take advantage of him; Partly because he’s genuinely interested in him (class from two years ago) and mainly to cock block Jordan before anything happens (because he can clearly see what the two of them are denying). Or, his bisexual behind is just totally trying to make another conquest (and cock blocking Jordan will be a bonus). Either way, I get a date rape drug feel about him. Noah seems like he’s been suppressing attraction to guys for a while, I’m wondering if he is totally gay or bisexual. The build up between Noah & Jordan is slow and kind of cute, I’m wondering how long it’ll take before anything happens between them; They’re building up to a mega hot first kiss.

What an unexpected treat!! I loved this story.

We did get some insight into Alex’s past in Aron’s confession: “....You were indeed tired sometimes, you were working so hard to make it into the fashion business, and seeing how your family ... But I won’t talk about that anymore. That reporter really had to use those words, I thought I was seeing red in front of my eyes....” While Alex was probably always a diva of some kind, seems he sustained an emotional (or maybe even physical) wound of his own to contribute to his selfishness. Just call them Dr. Frankenstein, because he is their creation via nature, nurture or a combination of the two. I’m still not feeling sorry for him.

I. I. I have no words, Rump. Aron’s confession seems like he’s now definitively choosing “Alex”, now. What is Carter supposed to do with this? Next week seems a long 7 days away.

This story is progressing so nicely. Aside from wanting Rory and Milan together because they are so cute with each other, methinks Milan’s cure lays in Rory’s werewolfness. I enjoyed this chapter and look forward to the next one.

What a beautiful tribute to your friend. Tho his poems were about the brevity of his time here, they pulsed with life. My condolences on your loss and those of his other friends and family.

Sean was playing with fire. If it wasn’t Tommy, it would’ve been someone else who clued Bruno in. He’s fucking other guys on the same bed he shares with Bruno (stupid!!) and this only now happened in 5 years?!?! The stupid queen isn’t Tommy....

I hope you explore these characters further too. It was way cool that Chris and Paul came to Evan’s rescue, loved the tie in with “Unbeaten”. Are there no red haired goths? Evan could be the first. Very nice.

Aaannnndddd it starts....

“This tumbling down the rabbit hole? It was just getting weirder.” I trust you Rump, but it is torture to watch Aron fall in love with Alex when it’s really Carter. ☹️ “He thinks you don’t love me,” Aron spoke and stared at Carter, waiting for a reaction. “Well, not as much as I love you, at least. He says you’re the kind of guy who only wants to be loved, without giving anything back. But I don’t think that. I think you’re insecure and that I should love you more until you don’t feel like that at all. It’s just that ... It gets hard sometimes. So I just go talk to David, and while he doesn’t approve of my attitude towards the whole thing, he listens, and that’s something I need. God knows why he’s doing this for me, though. I guess it’s not his idea of fun to hear me complaining about how I cannot manage to be a good enough husband for you.” I don’t know if Carter is supposed to fix Alex's whole life or just his marriage to Aron but it’s clear that Alex was/is exactly like David earlier described him and not what Aron thinks. I see the impression Aron has of Alex and it does explain why he married him, I even think he’s staying in it because he believes marriage is forever based on his parent’s example; Unless Alex is undergoing a similar transformation as Carter tho, Alex will still be the same ungrateful fuck he was before the accident and Aron will be badly disillusioned when the “frigid housewife” comes back; And I want to pinch Aron for thinking he’s not a “good enough husband”. Where did that psychic wound come from? David was correct in the previous chapter when he said something to the effect that Alex was lucky Carter was oblivious to Aron’s feelings about him before they met. MARK!!!!! Tell Carter the truth already!!!!

And I thought he was going to say he was seeing that skank, Kate. I too, am looking forward to the next chapter.

What Valkyrie said, 😊 I especially love “do unto others”. (I think I stubbornly reject hashtags, lol) The golden rule is my personal mantra.

And.... Are you sure Aron doesn’t have sub tendencies? Maybe not with Alex but with Carter, I could see him submitting, even if it was just every now and then.

I feel like Carter. It hurts me to hear Aron lavish such praise on the new, improved “Alex”, knowing very well it isn’t. I trust the methods to your madness, Rumplestiltskin and I will go along for the ride however long it is but it is starting to torture me now, seeing Aron so in love with Carter and not know it. Frankly I wouldn’t have been surprised if Aron cheated and Carter shouldn’t be either. It makes it even more puzzling why Aron married Alex in the first place and stayed with him after he realized he was a “frigid housewife”. Little did he know his husband was giving the “heat” to someone else, actually several someone else’s, the little hoe. I want Aron and Carter’s HEA but don’t see how that’ll happen now. Never read Lewis Carroll’s classic or saw the animated movie, maybe I should to have an idea how this may go, lol.

From chapter 11, “Heartbreaker” “I-I forgot how much Sarah meant to me, but when she passed,” He paused as his tears began to fall faster. “it just all seemed to come back to me. Every single moment with her came back to me. She was the best big sister I ever could’ve asked for. If I could change anything in my life, it’s losing contact with her. I miss her so god damn much Artie.” He confessed, now nearly as hysterical as me.”

Congratulations on your “Promising Author” status!! 👏 👏

For a second I thought Aron being quiet meant he suspected something at Alex’s enthusiasm about basketball when he hardly showed interest before. Outside of still feeling sorry for Simon and wondering about the message behind Mark having a dog named “Taz” I’m just waiting for the next chapter. Well paced, kind of normal (normal being relative in this place, of course) chapter, Rump.

Two chapters in a row of regular, everyday happenings. I dare not let my guard down, tho. I love when authors plug other authors and their stories on this site.

I glad Jamie and Lucas are on the road to recovery. Okay, Ben seems nice and all but I’m TEAM SAM. Guess time will tell who he ends up with.

I understand Kate’s overprotectiveness much better now. I also even understand Jamie’s Peter Pan ways a bit. For him to loved and lost so young was devastating. This was a totally unexpected development. I hope something good comes of this, EMT Ben aside, it had to mean something that Jamie saw Sam when he was drifting, right? Addendum: sorry, I know Jamie saw Sean, not Sam. I kinda wish he saw Sam, lol.

Being a caretaker is incredibly difficult, not everyone can do it and there is a special dynamic when it involves a child caring for an elder parent. It can test a relationship that’s good or exacerbate a relationship that’s bad. He is not the first or last child to resent being put in that position and glad when it’s over. I appreciated the honesty of this piece.

Yeah, that blood flow redirects itself to certain “parts” that require more attention than the brain (then again, it is said it has a little brain of it’s own). 🍆 😆
