M1984

As far as the stories go, I personally wouldn't be interested in reading material that added to the story by well-meaning fans. I want to know what Comicality had in store for those characters, in his own brilliant mind. Of course that's just me. I'm sure other readers will feel different. You're absolutely right, I would love to know what Justin's fate was. You couldn't help but fall in love with his characters. They'll outlive us all, if we don't blow ourselves up. New people, perhaps people not even born yet, will be finding Comicality's stories in decades to come.

I could swear I heard he was born in 1977. I've no idea how I came to believe it was that year. Thanks for the correction. Such a loss, but he left the world a better place than he found it. Something we should all hope to be able to say. Still, he left us far too soon.

He wasn't, really. Just 46. Which I suppose could be considered old, if you're particularly young. Although many of his popular works, he began writing in his twenties.

RIP, Com. You were one of the few truly beautiful souls in, what sometimes feels, like a cruel world with too many cruel people. Love you forever, dude! ♥️

Another super fun chapter, and I am so happy to be back at the Lot, with the 'family'. Seeing them all again, reminds me why I love them all so much. I can't wait to read further into the dream with Zero. Hopefully Justin will finally get some answers he desperately needs, cause I don't think The Jeweler's been much help so far. I'm going to read the whole series again soon. I can't wait. Thanks Com :) Mike

That was really sweet. I enjoyed that. I had more than one experience like that, growing up. Fun times. I think it must be common for boys, (and girls?) growing up. Gay, straight and everything in between. Young people are curious creatures. Thanks Com. Mike.

A classic and a favourite which never fails to put me in a good mood. Especially the uncut version with the instrumental piece at the end. Hope you had a lovely birthday, Com

Hi, It's me, Mike. Happy birthday, Com! ((Hugs)) 🙂

Good one! 😆

Hope this isn't considered bumping the thread? I've just seen this post. My first Doctor was Peter Davidson. But I was too young to remember his episodes. My parents are Whovians. I was raised watching the show, just as they were when they were children. My mother saw the very first episode on television as a little girl. Least favourite Doctor? I've enjoyed them all at least a little. But I suppose I enjoyed fewer of Colin Baker's stories than any others. Favourite Doctor? That has changed recently, from Tenant to Smith. The more I re-watch old episodes, the more I find myself enjoying Eleven's run more than any other. But Ten's and Twelve's runs were both excellent too. I want to enjoy Jodie's run, but I just haven't bought into her yet. Still, it's early days. Hopefully her second season will be the one to win me over. I didn't enjoy Twelve's first season either. But his last two, I did. Coincidentally, season 12 starts tomorrow.

Phew! That was a relatively peaceful, and tidy ending. Drew took the news as well as could be hoped. He had even guessed the truth before Rick told him. Hopefully a few people learned something from this, including Rick's mother. I've noticed a lot of straight people act like sexuality is not important to them, until it's a friend, family member of their child, then it can sometimes bring out the secret homophobe in them. I honestly don't know why people have an issue with it, besides bogus theology, which should have nothing to do with anyone else, and perhaps fear that they'll suffer abuse at the hands of others. But you can't be someone you're not, which Rick and Brandon proved to us during this story. Thanks again. Another great story

I'm now wondering if I am wrong and the thing I thought would be coming towards the end, never comes? That Rick chooses to stay with Drew? Or finds some part of him that genuinely wants Drew as a boyfriend and not just a friend. Of course I could be completely wrong, and we have two chapters left, but it's cutting it close. I can't wait to see.

I actually like the humour and the sexual innuendos. But maybe that's just the big kid in me. 😆 I'm still not sure how this is going to turn out and we have only four chapters to go.

Oh! James and Angus? This sounds interesting. I might have to revise my previous comment on how bad an idea it would be to set James back up with Drew. I still don't like cheaters, but Angus knows all about James, and could make that decision for himself - assuming he is in fact gay.

I was also wondering if Rick was going to be one of those 'otherwise straight' guys in a same-sex relationship. I do know they happen. They also happen in reverse too. Like a particular woman and a gay man, sometimes the chemistry between two people can overcome gender attraction. But since I think Rick put that idea to rest in this chapter, I guess that won't be happening. Unless something gradually is changing about him. I guess I'll find out.
