Chapter Four – I Almost Touched A Pussycat Tail “Tension. Knife. Knife. Tension.” Rusty gestured to compartmentalize, using both hands held at a straight angle. Maddox looked at him over the table. One of the awesome perks of having Jonathan over most of the time was that they got to eat pretty good food. They had to share him with Ray, or otherwise, there would be a war on campus. Rusty could live with that. He took the knife he had used to butcher his piece of steak and gestured into

Well, there's a start for everything!

OMG, another poem! I feel truly honored! You truly gave your all with this one, I see. I particularly loved the bit about Rusty's gallantry! Not a lot of people would think that about the King, but he's a very considerate and gallant dude, as he would say. Everyone should read your poetry! It contains the best summaries the world has ever seen, along with witty commentary!

Chapter Three – The Gift Of Knowledge His research so far had led him nowhere. All the girls he had asked about Matthew Han had given him a blank stare. Some did remember about a dude with whom they shared some classes, but they couldn’t give him anything meaty to work with. His supposition that Matthew was a lady killer had been completely off the mark, and that wasn’t like him. Did most people lack eyes these days? The dude was a looker; yeah, a nerd and a bit on the obnoxious side, but h

Chapter Two – Dee Untutorable A, B, C… is anyone brave enough to try teaching Rusty Parker the alphabet? Why the alphabet? You may ask. It’s quite simple. So far, no one has managed to make the king of Sunny Hill repeat a simple little ‘a’ after him or her. A new legend is born, guys and gals. We know already that Rusty Parker goes through personalities and quirks faster than, you guessed, you can say A, B, C… But this new skin he’s dressing up in is totally worthy of pursuing in its a

That person will certainly deserve the last penny :))

Eventually, I managed to aim true with someone with the name!

Then, let's say it's good for Freud he's not alive anymore. Rusty might have just tried some reverse psychology on him just for the lulz.

Yeap, it's not meant to be a mystery! Matty and Rusty will collide again, soon.

I totally agree, Wes!

He will sure try!

That's a nice prediction, right there!

But, but... what would life be without excitement! And build up, of course! Jokes aside, thank you! Glad to see you in the comment section again!

Drew is still getting kicked to the floor in this comment section, too, lol!

According to the comment section, the fireman should be Jack Reacher! Sorry, just Reacher. (even his momma called him that)

Inadvertently, the comment section turned into Reacher's fan club. I approve!

He-he, I suppose he might not be as appealing for the young - 20s - crowd, as for the rest of us. But hell, I grew up with big blockbuster stars like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, and Jean-Claude Van Damme, and seeing Reacher just reminded me of all those heroes those buff guys played back in the day.

Just check out the reply I gave to @scrubber6620's comment earlier, as I gushed out about Reacher plenty.

What a large fish... I wonder what kind of fish Rusty would like to be... I need to think. It must be a pun in there somewhere, I only have to find it!

Ahem, allow me to put my glasses on. I read Killing Floor by Lee Child several years ago (that's the book on which Reacher was based), so when I saw that they made a series featuring Jack Reacher, I was sort of like, hmm, no way they can bring to the screen a character that practically lives in his own head and is so detached from both his internal and external world to such a degree that he seems to be as close to a robot as someone can be. And, boy, was I proven wrong, he-he. Not only Alan Ritchson was an amazing choice for the role because of his outstanding physique. Hell, I think he's even more handsome than the Reacher I pictured in my head while I was reading the book. The actor did one hell of a job by portraying Reacher down to a tee. That's his skill as an actor, of course, and I hope he gets a lot more roles because of the amazing work he did on Reacher. Everyone involved in the making of the series did a great job. First of all, they had to adapt a 25-year old book to present day without turning it into something else, and they succeeded. They had to find the perfect Reacher, and they clearly did in Alan Ritchson. And oh hell, I so loved all that old-school ass-kicking that seems to lack in productions today. The banter between him and the chief detective, the whole emotional vulnerability that surfaces at one point... well, I need to stop, before I turn this comment into another book. Bottom line is, yeah, I absolutely love the guy. I have a soft spot for this ex-military, ex-special forces type. Like Jett's dad in Be The Father Of This Child, for instance. So, I am very much ahead of your rec, he-he... I do have a thing written in a very incipient phase that features two dads, one of them being very much like Reacher... so you see, with me, all bases are covered, lol. Anyway, I don't know when I'll be able to write that book, but I so want to bring those characters to life, too.

I like to believe that Matty is going to prove himself more than worthy of Rusty. The running away was just his first reaction, but let's see what follows My lips are sealed for now, however. An older silver fox guy... hmm... I don't know if I can fit him in here... but maybe in another book?

We'll see about that...

With such a bigger than life character, I just couldn't do otherwise

Oh, no, I see attempts of bribing... and spotting of weaknesses....

I knew I could count on you for some crazy funny gifs. It looks like you have a special power for finding them. Well, Rusty is going to be Rusty. Matty, you will get to meet him and know him well. Zoey, I think you'll come to love, you'll see As for the rest of the gang... well, you already know them!
