Aw thank you very, very, berry much! I'm so glad you've enjoyed yourself. Tyson has indeed come a long way! But as long as he's my character, he will always retain an uppity, snarky side. 😜 Thank you again for the support! I hope the final chapter sticks the landing!

Being in the care of Cynthia Ellicott was a blessing and also a curse. She was brilliant in her craft. She pushed for the least restrictive interventions possible and conducted herself with empathy, patience and understanding as much as she could. But she didn't let him get away with anything. The moment she sat down in the chair next to his bed, impressed that this one didn't squeak, and pulled out his medical records, Tyson knew she didn't buy the overdose as genuine for a second. She had a wa

Kelly's faith in her family was shaken when Tyson rang her up and asked her to visit some time ago. She realised he was telling the truth about them when he came home and Chase locked him in his room. Charlie's in much better hands since his huge meltdown! And things are looking up indeed! Thank you for the comment! ❤️ It's a possibility! Thanks for commenting! Yes! A bunch of nurses got together to pay Cynthia to treat Charlie and yes, Tyson's outbursts of abuse don't always end in disaster. (He's still a jerk!) Excellent question! We should find out together. And yeah, your baby Charlie is doing well for himself. ❤️ Thank you for the comment! Indeed! Thank you so much! Aww you'll make me blush :3 Tyson did indeed plan a lot of things. He took calculated risks that paid off - though he has no active plan at all for the future. As far as Cynthia goes, she will definitely see right through the holes in his story. Dr O'Connell likely did as well, but with a patient like Tyson, he might have believed it best to leave it all to the expert. Plus, when has Cynthia ever let Tyson get away with something when she's aware of it? Tyson's eagerness to stay (though he's very unimpressed with the tight security and lack of privileges in the HDU) is definitely alluding to his budding institutionalization - though how much of his attachment to the hospital was due to the dangerous and highly stressful environment of his home is unclear. Is he as scared of himself as he is of his parents? Big thanks for big comment!! ❤️❤️ It worked out in some ways but collateral damage is a problem he didn't prepare for. We have two more chapters so I hope it's a satisfying conclusion! Thank you much friend! ❤️

Hahaha! You don't sound like an ass. It was unlucky timing - it wasn't as though everyone conspired to separate them. I'm glad you liked the Charlie & Tyson bit! Thanks for the comment! 😘

"Tyson, can you hear me?" "Mmm no." "Okay, can you tell me how much valium you took?" "I dunno." That was a lie. Tyson had been meticulous in staging his suicide attempt. From his medication regime of valium multiple times a day for several weeks, his body had built up some resistance to the drug. He took enough to pass out for some hours, but certainly not enough to be dangerous - hopefully. It was risky, sure. A lot of things could have gone wrong. In Tyson's mind, it was worth

I'm very glad you enjoyed it! Tyson has indeed beaten his parents at their own game There is more to come! Cheers ❤️

Oh gosh this is all very well though out and written Edith does repeatedly put her status & privilege (at great cost re her husband) ahead of her children. Tyson definitely has fallout to deal with - consequences for a lot of rule breaking, lies & machiavellian scheming. Masha, definitely, won't find it easy to digest that she was unknowingly an accomplice in such a risky gambit. Neil, also, was manipulated into being part of the scheme as part of the video (to reinforce Tyson's claim that he was in a local AIU) Tyson took with Masha's phone. He also played Cynthia, who trusted him. There's a cruel irony I intended to portray when Tyson used the corrupted methods he learned from his crook parents to get them off his back (which people are not going to be happy about) and in Edith's mental unraveling as she failed to do the right thing by her sick son. You're right! It's certainly not over yet! Big thanks ❤️

Thank you dear! I'm glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

I'm glad you're enjoying the crescendo! (Thank the lord!) Edith is indeed a victim, but she still didn't do right by her children - indeed, trying to flee rather than making sure her son was okay was her screwing up her last opportunity to do right by him. Having mental illness & struggles doesn't excuse maltreatment of others - something Tyson thankfully learned in therapy! Haha no spoilers, but your attention to detail is always exciting! Another detail of note - he has repeatedly doubted his readiness for discharge from the safe environment the psych unit provides, has the level of introspection to realise that he is still very unwell and has reflected on his eagerness to return. 👀 Oh gosh I'm both excited and terrified for your critique of CH23! Oooh movie & TV rights... hmmm... Thank you ever so much! ❤️ Have a delightful day!

A little bit, yeah. I'm glad you're loving it, buddy! I was hoping you would! ❤️ Thank you ever so much for the continued support! Hehe thanks for the comment! Tyson has a good one to describe his daddy in the last chapter! Wig extinct? How do you always make up a new one?? As long as it's the good type of intense! I'm glad you're on the edge of your seat! I've already begun the next one! Yeah, Edith in this chapter was showing signs of a mental break & it's heavily implied that after Tyson's apparent overdose, she went over the edge! Thank you super much for the comments! ❤️ You funny bitch, that was so good I might just steal it for my next chapter!! Thank you ever so much! ❤️ Obviously I can't spoil anything! 👀 HAHAHA yes I love this! Girl you make me choke on my tea! Thank you for this! 😜 It's VERY fitting! Thank you so much! ❤️ Wow yay or wow nay? Either way, thank you! Have a great day everyone! I can't thank any of you enough! ❤️

Edith Belmont-Lovett Brain scans prove that there is a physical difference in a healthy brain and a sick brain. Any organ in the body can malfunction in some way, and the brain is no different. The word "mental" brings unkind stigma to people whose brains become unwell for one reason or another. So maybe the pills are making a difference. Hearing her husband descending the staircase to the ground floor, Edith quickly locked her phone and slipped it into her pocket. Kelly noti

Oooh this is a very insightful comment! 😮 I'm flattered! I'm almost intimidated actually haha You're totally correct about most of it! Vladimir's outlook is much better than Tyson's because of his support base, even though his problems are arguably more difficult to treat. Tyson's mental illness is more complex than simple depression, but the hopelessness and chronic suicidal ideation is spot on! This is explored more in further chapters. Thank you so much for the comments! I really hope you're enjoying the story!

Oh Decko dearest ahh if you trick me like that again I'll fucking kill you 😠 So Liz is such a sweetie - so supportive and loving, though she's in NO mood for Alex's crap, is she? Snapping her attention to what he's up to on his phone - which sounds suspiciously like it might have something to do with funding a repair of the bakery in the very near future! Alex please be a good boy. ❤️ MY POOR JEREMY! 😧 oh it's one tragedy after another for him. It's such a good thing he has Alex's support, though because the god in charge of his life is NOT a merciful god, is he? This was a lovely chapter, friend! Just as good on the reread! Thank you for uploading! ❤️ I'm very keen to see how things work out!

He certainly is! Thank you for the comment! Heh he's incredibly clever - but his home life is painfully unbalanced. A friend is just what he needs! Thanks for the comment!

Thank you so much for giving the story a go, friend! ❤️ I hope it doesn't disappoint! Thank you for the kind words I hope it delivers!

He certainly does! I don't think he'd imagine for a second what his boy has planned! Thank you so much for the comment friendbuddypal ❤️ I'm glad you liked it! I was scurred!

He really is. I think he's right up there as the most reprehensible (hehe) character I've ever written. Edith's a different brand of ghastly (hehehe) Tyson is scared of his home and the impulses it brings out of him. But thinking of his future & especially Vladimir is enough to keep him satisfied for now. Which is special as far as his character goes. Thank you for the comment, friend! I always look forward to you! It wasn't easy to write! & you're right, that is the unfortunate truth for some. You're also spot on when it comes to Tyson's new perspective of his parents especially the turnabout with the shady warfare he learned from their example! Thank you very much for the comment! ❤️ Appreciated!

The chill didn't come over Tyson alone. He saw fear and hatred in Vladimir's eyes too, when he saw Edith Belmont-Lovett marching towards them. Fear and hatred Tyson had only seen when he knew Vladimir was seeing the three-headed evil creature that he believed killed his ex-boyfriend. "I love you," Tyson whispered so quietly that Edith would not hear him. "I love you too," Vladimir smiled back at him. "Good luck." "Tyson!" She snapped again, her words like the crack of a whip as she

It is indeed! And it looks like we'll have to see. It's a scary situation. Thank you for the comment! =] Well thank you dear ❤️ What did you think he had in mind? Let's find out together! I'm glad this chapter wasn't hot trash then hahaha thank you muchly

Since a hands-on confrontation triggered Charlie into a savage attack, the no-contact rule had been strictly enforced in the ward. Tyson wasn't happy about that, but with his discharge coming up, the stabilising effect of his medication and newfound self-awareness of his emotions, he managed to accept this circumstance as something he could not control. It was nice to be allowed to have fun and snuggle with Vladimir - in different ways a brother, best friend and boyfriend all in one. Now, they h

I apologise for failing to leave a comment on my last read! I hope the reread makes up for it! 😮 But I can't get enough of these twooooooooooo!! =D Their escapades at the river make my skin tingly, and Tom's simpleness is charming. You're creating an unrealistic standard of boy.

Well gosh, this was such a sweet chapter! Charlie's so defensive where Tom is concerned and I love that! The small-town setting really shines through your secondary characters who really have no goddamn interests outside of what everybody else is doing. It's very real!! And Charlie himself is just so relatable! Sweet and kind but will read a bitch where necessary! I hope this story has a million billion chapters! ❤️

Hahaha girl this is far and away my favourite series of yours!! The characters and setting are just perfect. I think I like Derrick and mom's relationship even more than Derrick & Tanner - you've brought so much authenticity and sweetness to it. The only thing I don't like about this story is how sad I am when the chapter ends! ❤️❤️❤️ Five thumbs up x

Yes indeed! He's been plotting for a little while now. Thank you very much for the comments! Hahaha! Yeah you're all on to him! Is Cynthia? Good question! Charlie's sessions? Another good question! Heh yeah, I was trying to convey a virginlike innocence. I hope it worked! ❤️ Thank you muchly!

Yep yep! If big daddy tried to send his boy away before the mandatory appointments, he'd land himself in some hot water! And fear not, friend! The GIF feature has your back! TYVM for the comment and the react!
