AusGlitterati

Hey I'm so glad to hear that! He's my pride and joy, pretty much! Don't worry, TTS is still ongoing! A little bit of writer's block here and there, so Love, Lance has done its job and got me keen to write about our old crew! Have a great day ❤️

Thank you very much! Although to be honest i had to remember firstly which chapter this was :p in hindsight, going by months was a bad idea! I'm glad lance is growing on you! He was intended to be the antagonist of the story! It was around this point I pulled the plug on that I'm glad you're having a good read! I hope it doesn't end up being disappointing :x have a terrific day!

Oh darling, even when Lance was poised to be the arrogant, asshole antagonist of TTS, one of his defining/redeeming characteristics was how much being true to himself meant to him ❤️ Oh yeah ;\ it's pretty savage in the community, and it's harder still during such an important developmental stage. I'm glad you enjoy it! I enjoy writing it! Ugh yeah. I know who you're talking about! That one gay kid whose sexuality managed to turn everything into a positive and seems free from all discrimination and stigma. Blaaaaah! Thank you for commenting! ❤️

"Oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh-oh-oooh-oh-oh-oh! Caught in a bad romance!" Lance and Janey sang together at the top of their lungs. "Oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh-oh-oooh-oh-oh-oh! Caught in a bad romance!" It was a Thursday, so the two of them went to Janey's house once the school day finished. Ballet at seven, so Lance would spend the afternoon and evening with his best friend, have dinner and they'd go to their dance class together. They had homework, but neither one was interested in doing it yet. Ballet night wa

Lance is my favourite OC! Oh boy, do I have plans for him! Nawww I was hoping you'd enjoy it! You're my number one Lance fan! Yeah his parents are good (but always worrying) and his brother and sister are miserable bastards. There is always TTS CH6 if you wanna revisit that flashback of his. I'm glad! Lance seems to be by far my most popular character on GA (myself included!) Yes I thought I'd flip the script (I like doing that it seems!) with Lance. In To The Stars it's often assumed Lance had abusive parents or a broken family and it offends him. :p Hahahaha! I'm glad you enjoyed that little joke. I was drunk when I wrote that and kept it. Yep! Lance isn't Veikko :p he is incredibly fit and a decent height. hahaha yeah! Lance singing to Paparazzi is no accident he is a born entertainer! Thank you all for the generous comments! They mean a lot Lance is my baby!

He tied up his long, violet coloured hair into a knot on the top of his head. He was in front of his mirror, everything he needed on his desk. Lights on. Playlist blaring. Showtime. "We are the crowd. We're c-coming out." Primer first. We want that make-up to stick! "Got my flash on, it's true. Need that picture of you. It's so magical. We'd be so fantastical. Leather and jeans. We're rock glamorous. Not sure what it means. But this photo of us," Foundation next. "It don't h

Unlikely to be updated in the foreseeable future.

I like what you've done with this one! ❤️ Who doesn't love them some Terryn?

Vladimir thinks they will work something out and Tyson is starting to believe him Nyaw! ❤️ There's been a lot of sad in the story thus far so both of our boys deserved a nice chapter! Yes, Vlad's family is supportive and kind, and that was important for me - anyone can struggle with mental illness. Ahaha aww Charlie! Yeah, more Aus slang for you to chew on. Thank you!! Terrific! That's a lot of praise, and I appreciate it a lot! Hmm the intention was slowly have Tyson grow aware of how privileged and spoiled (in some ways) he is compared to Vladimir's family, but I think you're spot on with that one. It does seem odd now that you mention it. Ergh I'm so sorry! I intended to put the translations in the chapter notes at the end, but it was late and I forgot. ZZ. Better off in the text now that you mention it anyway. The bits and bobs of Russian were given to me by a friend who speaks the language - that word you mentioned means "dear" but I guess it has more than one translation. I'm sorry about that. I'll edit this chapter soon to include the translations in brackets. Thanks for the feedback ❤️ I'm sure they'd love you back!!

"Truth!" Tyson decided after a short moment of consideration. "Hmm, okay," Vladimir rubbed his hands together, and Charlie giggled from next to him. "When did you first masturbate?" "Thirteen," Tyson was embarrassed to reveal how old he was when he ejaculated for the first time. "Last year." "Really? So late?" Vladimir asked curiously. His blue eyes twinkled when he was happy. "Didn't you learn in sex ed? Or watch porn?" "Ahh well..." Tyson mumbled as he turned red. "I have paren

I don't want to spoil the story! But although there will be setbacks for our boys, Heart is not now nor will it ever be a tragedy there's enough tragedy around already! And after all, the heart is the strongest muscle.

He absolutely would if he could! ❤️ And the feeling would be mutual, I'm sure. Thank you for the read, react & comment!

Pretty well said! He feels the burden of the responsibility rather than the opportunity to excel in anything and everything. Well this is an AusGlitterati story so... Awww I'm sure they'll come and visit! No! Thank you ❤️ CH6 coming up soon! #RoadTo300K

It's one of those darn songs that always comes up in my head!!

Tyson's schedule at home was quite full, relentless, tedious and taxing. On a given school day, he would start the day off with a six o'clock wake-up call. Then he would go through the morning routine - exercise group or swimming laps with his sister in the backyard pool, then shower, breakfast, brushing teeth and off to his prestigious private school. Following that, he would either play a sport or learn an instrument, then he would do his homework and assignments, have dinner, then two hours o

Yeah he was always going to have motivation & origin, but I waited a little longer to unveil his than I did for the other boys. He'd kill you if he heard you calling it a phobia Initially there was a brief bit about Maverick "learning"/remembering several aspects of his life when he accesses his phones. Unfortunately I cut that and forgot when I trimmed some of the fat. I'm always doing that 😕 Good observation This is true! Maverick is ruthless and will go to any lengths to get what he wants. Maverick plays the long game. So does AusGlitterati. He isn't necessarily the antagonist of the story, but he sure as heck is not the hero. Yeah I didn't really go for the subtle route for him, did I? Heh Veikko should not be underestimated! ❤️ Nobody has more valour than our little Finnish queen!

Yep! Maverick likes to play the long game and it's paid off. He's resourceful and terrific at using things to his advantage - Kellan McLeod's attack on him put him in a favourable position by making him a sympathetic figure. Veikko - victim or survivor? Maverick is an excellent judge of character. He knows. Reima's my favourite supporting character! Haha ❤️ Thank you very much. I hope it's not too long! Veikko sometimes takes a bit longer than the others.

Later that day... "Mmf!" Dom exclaimed, leaning against the telephone pole as a gorgeous, sun-tanned blond beauty strolled his way down the footpath, clad in the revealing clothes the Catholic boy had chosen to wear. Seeing the toned arms and chest of Topher Lynch on full display did nothing to help Dom's struggle in keeping his hormones under control. What can I say? He's so hot. "Hey," Topher, who had been looking awfully miserable in the distance, visibly cheered up and smiled when D

Awwww <3 Topher and Jon can now heal and their relationship renewed. As flawed as Jon is, he does love his son. Kevin and Topher have shared some intimacy in the past so Kevin clearly feels something. Topher likes Dominic but has far stronger feelings for Kevin, but he probably won't wait forever. Dominic has only ever been sweet and supportive, texting and calling Topher in his rare spare time whereas Kevin's first reaction is to run. Tsk. options! :p And Maverick? He always chooses the elaborate route to reach his true goal. Fun fact! His favourite chess piece is the Knight. I will keep it up! Thank you for you continual support!

February, Monday 19th (Thirteen days later) "Chrissy!" Kevin Li's cheerful voice pricked Topher's ears as he looked over to see the beautiful sixteen-year-old boy jogging along the sandy road in his hoodie and shorts. "Look who finally showed up!" Topher remarked, happy to see him and drawing him into a full body hug. Not one of those man-hugs that Kevin liked so much to keep them at arm's length. No, he was done with those. He liked his friend. He loved him. He didn't care who knew it

YES CLIFFHANGERS THEY PROMISE MORE TO COOOOME ❤️

He's a hyperprivileged young man and isn't totally aware of it. With a family of high standing and wealth, so he's used to getting the best of everything and looks down on people he considers beneath him - something he absolutely learned from his parents. While he is a sweet boy who craves love and affection, he's also a piece of work and perpetually frustrated by the constraints of his situation - both his lack of freedom and his sprained ankle are sore spots (hah) for him and they bring out the negativity ingrained in him. Yep! Our protagonist's story arc involves so much more than merely getting psychiatric treatment. There's a lot for him to learn about mental illness, other people, his family, himself and Vladimir. Yep! As the author, this was something that was crucial to me. The point is that anyone can fall prey to mental illness. Tyson comes from a cold, unloving family, but he has access to the best of everything - he's in the inpatient unit. Vladimir comes from a more humble background, yet his family adores and supports him every step of the way. He's frequently going to inpatient units. They're two sides on the same coin. Unfortunately, one of the only things Tyson did not experience until now was unconditional love. Who knows what difference it might make? Thank you friend! Two comments in two days?? It's not my birthday! ❤️

Lmao this bit had me totally stumped until I remembered that was Tyson's surname!! I was staring like "I don't get it" hahaha At least he's not salivating on her! He's pretty lost. Much of the cause behind his emotional outbursts have to do with being unsure of how else to express what's going on inside and how to appropriately handle the unusual situation he's in - largely because of the ignorance of his family. It doesn't help that Edith thinks she can book him in to the repair shop and have him back good as new in a few days like he's a car with a broken engine. Yes! Thank you very much for the comments! You know they make my day!

D'aww thank you! Some genuine affection and care for Tyson will definitely make a big difference for him. I shall keep it going! Awww ❤️ they already are! Tyson helped Vlad through his episode and in this chapter Vlad was able to give Tyson a small ray of hope. Aw my gosh I'm so sorry ❤️ for good or for bad? Haha When a professional (Cynthia aside) or family member asks Tyson those questions, he doesn't bother to respond because at his core, he doesn't want to "get better." Vlad is different because he offers love, affection and most importantly, empathy. That's why Tyson's finally starting to think outside that black hole. Thank you all for the responses! ❤️ Have terrific days, all of you!

Tyson didn't remember when he nicked his jugular with the knife he'd stolen and sharpened himself on the concrete porch while his family slept. All he knew was that he was happy. Blood gushed from his neck and splattered on the floor and the walls. It never stopped. It began to flood his bedroom, covering his brown toes and ankles. So much blood! It was thrilling! Tyson gleefully felt himself go faint and fall on his blood-soaked bedsheets. He did it! He finally did it! It was all over, and nobo
