Oh, good! The aim is to keep him interesting rather than likeable, but if you like him anyway, I'm so on board! Thank you for the read, react and review!

Thank you! He certainly is - but some people, such as Topher or Kellan, don't see that. It's easy to hate him. Cheers for the comment ❤️ it's very much appreciated!

Hey thank you very much! That means a lot There is a lot more to go on all three of these plot threads! I hope its not so long before I update again. I really appreciate the continues support <3 thank you so much and have a lovely day!

So real talk, this comment made me do this weird happy squeak in front of my friend :p I can't tell you how much that means to me! It's some of the highest praise I've ever received and i never expected such a reaction to a story I wrote <3 I hope very much that im able to retain that spot and keep the story interesting it's comments like this that make tts so much fun to write. I hope your day is as good as you've made mine ^.^

It's not a bad theory at all! Jimmy's a sweet heart

Adam eats boysenberry jam? Well isn't that something. <3 This chapter is so heart breaking! Awwwwmigosh you better make this right! You know how I felt about old Pa. This time I did cry a bit :< Poignant or not, this was gorgeous <3 I am so keen to see how this impacts their relationship. Thanks pal :3

Ahhh! This was so raunchy that im still blushing! what a scene! I daresay I need to spray myself with the water bottle! I feel like Kaleo got his feelings in the wrong order :p he went around the world to effectively stalk and find Adam but now he's having second thoughts? You're both incredibly happy and sexually satisfied, don't be silly! Awesome chapter <3 I loved it!

Oof Doug you poor little bugger. Nobody needs to go through that, and sadly so many kids do on the flip side, our boys couldn't be happier! They've got a couple of rough decisions to make and Adam said that special word!! Eeee!! Thank yoooou <3

I didn't cry! You warned me about the cuteness overload but did I listen? Tsk. Zack did such a lovely thing and that reunion wasdelightful. Damn cuties making my day better another sweet chapter!

Aww Zack you sound like a lovely guy but you're in the way of my happily ever after so piss off. Adam at Sunshine is so, so heart warming and those two lads! Kaleo's conviction to find the man that saved his life... ahhh! I'm almost feeling faint <3 fluffy in all the right ways and sweet enough to give cavities in the way only you can write it huge thanks friend. It's a beautiful story.

Hahaha I'm sorry friend! I swapped one of these segments with one from the next chapter and forgot that meant he didn't make a direct appearance! If it makes you feel better, he's heavily featured next time around Probably dont put a huge amount in anything Sean or Diego promise :p they''re very confused. Thank you friend <3 as always it was a joy to have you read my stuff!

Awwwwwwww they're the two cutest men GA has ever featured this is the sweetest story friend, thank you for giving us more of them!

Sunday, August 12th "No phone tonight," Diego told her firmly. "Every time you look at your phone, you're buying me a drink." "What if it's important?" Rachel looked at him with a frown. "What if my mom's dying?" "Like that's important to you," he scoffed, and she shrugged and they both began to snicker. It was true. Diego felt the same way about his parents as well. He would always love them, but they did not recognise his children as they were all born out of wedlock. They did no

Thank you! That's a running theme with Topher. He's sheltered and naive and struggles to see past his nose. The irony is that he believes people at face value whereas he hides behind a facade. Yeah this is important. Hahahaha 😘 you don't believe that he could have lost his memory? Yesss! Maverick tends to take an elaborate path to getting what he wants. Hahaha this is true, even if he tells the truth for the wrong reasons even if it sounds like he's trying to help a friend out, it's intended to come across as a further ploy to separate Dom & Veikko by doing some matchmaking. Thank you! It upsets me too. That paragraph slipped in when I overheard people mocking mental illness. It gets my blood boiling. Much appreciation for the comment ❤️ My day has improved! I hope yours was pleasant as well.

Ohhh, it was a big sacrifice, I assure you. Proves that the walk of shame remains the one constant between universes. Haha The characters just come to life off your page, even that douchebag Fendrel and especially that gorgeous Rulf & beautiful Esthor! The chapter's pretty much perfect ❤️ I can't wait to nag you for an update! Thank you

Both excellent questions - is there even a correct answer? Who knows Thank you friend ❤️ sincerely, the support means a lot!

I mean - if Dom were the one "narrating" the scene, I'm sure he would see Maverick much differently. Topher is naive and believes people are inherently good.

Snickers? Who even eats Snickers but a sociopath? Yes we do, in a way! Just remember whose POV it is. Yeah, what a jerk, right? Good thing we only have Maverick's word for that. Jon loves his kid, but he has a lot of problems and has no idea what he's doing. Topher's realising some ugly truths for the first time. Oh good! I was worried about this one ❤️ Thank you very much friend! I appreciate it!

It was the first morning he'd slept in since he was very young. Five o'clock came and went, as did six, seven and eight. No running on the beach today. It was getting increasingly upsetting to have Kevin fail to show up every single time. He was no stranger to going for a run on his own. He enjoyed it in the past. But now, the salty taste of sea air on his lips only reminded him that he wanted Kevin in ways he shouldn't, and Kevin was rejecting him. Okay, Dad, Topher thought glumly with his cove

Maverick's chapters are a hell of a ride for me. I love the challenge that comes with them, but it gets exhausting! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Even if you feel dirty doing it. Haha The age old argument of nature vs nurture? It also implies why Maverick is so desperate to beat his sister at chess to prove he's every bit as smart as her, but he can't quite get there. The eight headed serpent monster? Dunno what you're talking about. An important distinction he feels things indeed, but not the same way as the others. They're both dangerous, but at least one way is legal. let's find out together! Good! I'm trying my best to make it feel authentic, but unfortunately I'm not a psychopath so... we'll see! lol (that sounds like something a psychopath would say ) In spite of what a rotten person he is, I do think it's sad. While his actions as a result of his condition are unforgivable, the condition itself is not his fault. I'm hoping this chapter adds some layers to Maverick's character & background that make him more than "just a psycho." Me, too! 😃 You can share him! If anyone else were telling Maverick's story, I'm sure they'd discuss what a pure, kind-hearted teenager he is before his wicked brother broke his spirit. ❤️ He could desperately use some love! Thank you so much for the comment It gives me much joy and I cant thank you enough! ❤️

Ooh it is every bit as intriguing the second time around! Esthor sounds like such a cutie!! Great stuff and i look forward to the next one!

Thank you! Especially since there are so, so many warts! Haha ❤️ thank you too!

I love writing them! He's not my favourite person, but he's my favourite character* at this point. He's challenging. I love it. Oh my gosh I forgot about those! Haha Ahaha perhaps it's a twin thing? It sure was for me! Yeah - lending into the point that Vilma insists that the boys are to sit next to each other. It appears to everyone, Veikko included, like it's for Reima's benefit, but that's a red herring - it's for Veikko's peace of mind. Good observation! Right? It seems like an uncharacteristically dick move for Topher to twist the knife. Why would he do that? You think it might have done more harm than good? Is that the kind of thing I would do to my characters?? 😜 I'll let you decide that for yourself He seems to know when it's a convenient time to appear - he did it in the last chapter as well. Awwwww ❤️ he's a damaged boy, but I promise he won't spend the whole story miserable. There's method to my madness! Ugh me too. He's so much fun to write about! Probably my favourite comment thus far your Veikko insights are sheer brilliance! Thank you for taking the time to comment ❤️ I had a flattered smile on my face the whole time!

He might not be the smartypants he thinks he is. Lacking fear makes him impulsive and reckless. ... Frankly, yes. He's kind, honest and meek. He's a total sweetheart and Maverick is lucky to have a brother like him, but you'd never know it through his eyes. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️ it means so much.

Ahahah aww! Then I've done a great job! 😮You'll have to ask him! 😜 I figured you might like that! It was my pleasure, friend! Thank you for the R, R & R! ❤️
