I realise that this is not reliable for guests, but for members, seeing unique readers rather than overall views would be great.

I think that both options can work in a good sex scene. I prefer to go with what feels like the best contextusal fit - taking account of the characters an the circumstances at the time. But I know from personal expereionbce that some readers have problems with this. Personally - I decided that I’m not here to actively push a moral or political view, just to write stories. Sometime there is a crossover, sometimes not.

Trick rapidly became one of my favourite characters here on GA - and throughout this story he’s done nothing to jeapordise that position. He’s funny, insecure, and entirely lovable. And apparently his high school bully agrees with me. This story follows the ups and downs of a new, and surprising, relationship between two great guys with a very messy history. There’s enough drama to keep you interested but not so that it detracts from the the real story. By the end of things there’s a mild case of TMGC (Too Many Gay Characters) which would usually annoy me, but overall it was too much fun for that to warrant a 4 star review. For a relatively short story, there’s a lot packed in here, but it never felt ‘dense’ to read. The extensive comments and associated spill over conversations are testament to the quality here. @ObicanDecko is most definitely someone you should be keeping an eye on. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did.

Awwwwwwww 😀😍❤️

Awesome work @Dodger, congratulations! 🎉

I hope you like where it goes 😀

I’m happy you have enjoyed it

I hope you’ve recovered - it will all be OK.

I’m very happy about that

Great The guys had a lot of fun on the date too.

Yes - Connor certainly takes his time to make decisions about this stuff.

Thanks very much

Hi - yes, a few people are You only get one side of the conversation here.

Thanks - I hope you like how the story plays out.

Thanks very much I’m pleased you have enjoyed it.

That's just.... I don't have the words.

I’m not sure if this is what you meant or not - but maybe I should spend some time on the ‘other’ story, in it’s own context and not hijacking some happy elves?

Thanks - I hadn’t thought of it as stifling what wants to come out. And I’m feeling unusually resilient of late, so I guess I’ll let the h** go, just as long as you don’t go around telling everyone

Good call on the cheesecake. I knew we could be friends I suspect you’re right, and I just have to figure out which is best.

Definitely the wienerbrød!

Any! I’m not picky. Although nothing with nuts in. Particularly coconut.

Thanks - although I distinctly remember mentioning cake 🤔

I have this problem... OK, yes, I have many problems but this one specific problem for now. It’s story creep. I don’t know if that’s a real term, but what I mean by it is, like time creep, when you expect something to be one thing, but it incrementally moves towards being another. I’m writing a story at the moment (Not Just For Christmas, although I’m not sure it mater about the details for this discussion). In the beginning, it was a frivolous short for the Christmas competition. And then I had this fanciful notion that it would be fun to write something bigger with the characters and world I had created. This was all supposed to be light hearted, post it as I finish it, no grand plan, fun. Until today. I’m working on the next chapter, happily typing away, when I realise that I’m having to scale back different elements of the story. Having taken an hour away from it and made coffee, I think I’m trying to avoid the story becoming something else. You see, there’s also that story... you know the one, the one that’s been rattling around as an idea for seemingly forever, the one that you’ve never quite got around to fleshing out, but you have a lot of it there, in your head, just waiting for you to sit down and actually write it. So here’s my problem. My ‘light’ little story suddenly presents itself as a previously not considered opportunity to write that story. It all fits, more or less, I’d always imagined it was angels and not elves, but what’s one magical being or another between friends? Urgh! I’m going to make more coffee becasue I don’t know what to do. And yes, you are supposed to come rescue me somehow! Or at least bring cake. Sam

And I'm not the one who disappeared for weeks! 😜

Thanks - I'm happy you found it
