Yep, things are going to start moving rather swiftly. Boys are gonna hit the ground running in a chapter or two. (I'm working on getting the first drafts looking not so choppy and ragged. @Mrsgnomie will probably kill me.
Then they're smarter than the 55+ folks who complain 2 months after buying a 50 year old mobile home that they have to spend $3-$4k on a roof over.
Me: Did you have a home inspection done?
Them: No.
Me:
Nice start. I have a soft spot for anyone in a marching band. Former band Mom here. Countless events chaperoned. Two band trips, one cruise and one memorable jaunt to NYC.
Elijah is young, but he's legal. I never really decided on an age, 20? 21ish?
Adult guys can be 5'8". My husband was when we started dating. (He's shrunk to about 5'6", osteoporosis runs in his family) 🤭
Elijah can outwardly become an adolescent shifter, but he can't create a scent fir himself, so butt stink pills it is.
Sequel.... maybe.
I got myself confused while I was writing this chapter and the next.
Wayne and Sandi will only need to alter their scent a little, to help mask their little white lies. Hence the concoction that Reilly used to mask his scent. Donovan was able to alter the formula enough so that they won't smell like soggy doggy.
The only things that worked were oregano seeds, garlic, tea tree oil and grapefruit rind, of all things.
Rosalie chose the oregano/garlic combo to test. Wayne and Sandi can pick and choose what they go with.
Elijah needs to believably smell like an adolescent shifter, hence the butt stink and more to come in the next chapter. 🤪
Lots of good theories. I'm feeling generous and will lay one to rest...
No neo-nazis to be found anywhere. Too much research on a subject I'd rather not tackle. Insinuating that Belland helped fund Hitler was to highlight his evilness.
Butt stink pills are a by product of growing up with all brothers. My sense of humor is rather warped. 🤣
Things are going to pick up quickly in a couple of chapters, so buckle in.
