Yes, that's exactly the point of the chapter Lyn got over Brad, and it didn't happen 'today' - he only needed to realize it. The epiphany concerned Brad more than Lyn... I agree. And I wanted to show Lyn here, as the friend who actually does the right thing - supporting his friend but without mollycoddling him. Alexander is a man of 'hard' facts! Of course, he was thinking of the historical figure... not the fictional character. Lyn will ask. Alexander will answer. Only that Lyn might get a lil' too caught up to parse all the intellectual information Alexander will give him (under durress)

You guys were right about the hickey... and yes, Lyn now realizes that he's only friends with Brad, and he'll always be that and no more than that.
-
Yes, that was the point of the chapter. We won't talk about subtext for now... but here is Lyn, at thirty, an accomplished lawyer, and someone who stopped crushing on his friend at a point in the past he can't point out. If you're patient enough until Saturday... yes, we will have that very interesting encounter
-
Oh, me thinks Alexander has some answering to do instead! I wanted to show what the passing of years did to Lyn's feelings after all. Faced with reality, he may be shocked to realize that his romantic feelings for Brad are gone, but he acknowledges this new reality, even if it leaves... yes, an empty space behind.
-
I knew you guys would take note of it.

Very true. Lyn is now forced to re-evaluate part of his youth and take it at face value. He's a man now, no longer a college kid. Despite his deeply rooted insecurities, he knows that.
-
Oh, lol, that would be the biggest twist in history!
-
Indeed, indeed...
-
Oh, exorcism, I like this! Lyn has grown out of his romantic feelings for Brad, and it's a shock even for him. It's okay to feel sorry for Brad... I know he's so unlikeable right now, but I want readers to catch these glimpses into his vulnerability and take note of it. It's too late for them in a way, and you're right to say that. And that line is actually more honesty than emotional manipulation, although he's known for the latter more.

You were on fire!

[Memory, Summer Break After Sophomore Year] – The Perfect Gentleman
Laura S. Fox posted new chapter in Misaligned
Chapter Thirty – [Memory, Summer Break After Sophomore Year] – The Perfect Gentleman Lyn studied the high ceilings and large mirrors that made the enormous room appear even grander than it already was. Despite his protestations, his mom had worked hard to convince him to accompany her to this event for the posh and arrogant, and since he knew that she needed him there, he had eventually agreed. Now she was several feet away from him, looking gorgeous in a crimson silk dress that made h- 42 comments

Oh, lol!! Jack has so many things to worry about!
-
Oh, I will keep that in mind, lol!! We do need to think of Jack, after all... Now that was quite the picture you put in my head, ha-ha-ha!! Thanks for the music rec, too.

Vince remains a guardian, only changing the workplace! (and employer) Jack makes it clear to Vince about the card-reading in the chapter I just posted.
-
He must! Or else he'll be in terrible danger...
-
Oh, gawd, it looks like this... It's like my characters are all auditioning for starring in an adult movie! Wingardium Lubiosa? (I don't know, I don't read HP fanfiction)
-
Jack is acting in self-defense, I swear! On a more serious note, he won't be able to keep what the cards say a secret forever...
-
The comments are getting crazier!!!!
-
You guys are killing me with these comments... But I guess I deserve it! I dug this hole for myself!
-
Jack just might, lol!!!!
-
He-he... let's stop scaring Jack...

Chapter Four – Assholes Aren’t Supposed to Be Yummy Was that the aircraft that would take them to Pinemoor? Jack had a mind to slap his forehead and become an internet meme, because there was no way their arrival at the lands of Ryder’s pack would go unnoticed. Weren’t they supposed to be stealthy or something? Ha! Not even the mighty Theodore Pembroke had a stealth plane. Served him right, the asshole. He needed to feel how it was to not have things, even if the thing he didn’t have was a

Oh, yes, that's a good point. Lyn is familiar with messy and unreliable... his past sets him up for a certain type of relationship. Your last lines summarize Lyn's approach to relationship so well.
