No real drama in this chapter. Is @Mark Arbour setting the scene for future chapters

@Mark Arbour just out of curiosity is this the most commented chapter of The Freshmen story. Update a check of the chapter header for this chapter confirmed 62 comments so far for this chapter. So my question is now what is the most commented on chapter in the saga so far?

what a great story development, twists and turns, a family that circle the wagons around one of their own.

I am going to enjoy reading this chapter on my day off. Thanks, Mark, for the earlier than normal chapter update

Does JJ get to fly in the family private jet or God forbid does he have to fly commercial?

I cannot imagine Susannah disappearing quietly into the ether. She will need watching. Time for JJ to show some confidence and take control with K-Kris to fall back on.

Thanks Mark. I think we have advanced from 4/5/2004 to 2/8/2004 (Australian date format), 3 months in this chapter. I look forward to future installments.

Will will only ever do what suits himself. He is a manipulative narcissist.

As an Australian PLEASE do not include a casual encounter between Thorpie and Will in during the Olympics. Ian Thorpe set gaydar pinging ever since he was 14. I can't imagine how he lived and competed with people forever badgering him about his sexuality. He is still suffering through a lot of Mental Anguish as an adult and is forced to live a very private life. HIS SEXUALITY WAS NEVER ANY OF OUR FUCKING BUSINESS.

The chapter is header is "Gap Year - 105. Final Chapter: 105". Maybe there will be some carryover to the next installment.

ok, question for USA readers, are there any significant events after May 2004, or can we jump to the 2008 presidential elections? I am from Australia so dont keep up to date with USA news unless it is massive

Did anyone keep count of the number of deaths included surrounding characters in this installment? And how many attempts were there on Will's life? in future installments i am going to keep count as we go along

105 Chapters plus prologue. Covering Will's life from 23 November 2003 to May 4 2004. May the fourth be with you Mark and thank you for another thrilling installment.

thank you

@Mark Arbour can we please have an update on where all characters are at in their lives? have been reading from the beginning and have seen the family grow and move around. We know where JJ, Grand, Stef and Darius are. this has been going on for so long i have lost track of the family and extended family tree. /
