Stephanie told Matt after the story published that the Pastor's family might sue for defamation I'd like to see them try🤬 He did tell her about the nude dancing so anyone from Matt's past who reads this will know the whole story Thank you and Mike so much for the great video it really got to me😭

Forgive me for being thick but was the story implying something supernatural happened and that's why they didn't see anything from the helicopter? Anyway excellent story.

What wasn't said about J.J.'s old place burning down was did Applazon hire someone too start the fire.If they did that and a mistake was made and discovered during an investigation that could be a problem for the company I don't think the fire just happen on its own or someone random out of the blue decided to start a fire.It will be interesting to find out more about that. If I'm J.J. after he turns 18 I would hire people who specialize in finding people and get some information about his family and depending on what they find out decide what he wants To do with that info.His real Mom or Dad might be brilliant in their own right I would certainly be curious. Whatever Henry decides to do with his life if its something that's similar to what J.J. deals with I would definitely want Henry to be working with me.

While reading this I let my imagination go nuts.I was thinking this wasn't really a robbery that Salvatore set it up to see if the two would go through with it because it just makes no sense to have two teenagers try to do a professional job .For this a be a plan the lawyer and Salvatore would have worked on it together but my thought hit a snag when Austin was home the lawyer would not do that.One possibility is the mother decided to leave her son home and the father found out about it later. Maybe they talked on the phone and then he said GO THERE NOW!!!! it would explain why she showed uo all of a sudden.Most likely none of this happened of course but Matias and Kyle should not have even been able to enter without setting an alarm off so something seems off

I quote Howard "I read those words several times. If Alexander hadn’t died, would he have pushed further east? When and where would he have stopped" I remember being told in school that when there was nothing left to conquer Alexander sat down and cried if that is a true account I don't think he would have ever stopped

Maybe not another book that's really hard work but a one off snapshot would be good.

For what it's worth definitely read Purity you don't need to be a sci-fi fan to enjoy it

I get that emotions were high but Jenny saying Alan affair was worse then hers because his was with another man was lame talk about the pot calling the kettle black.Considering everything it turned out pretty damn good.Compared to the stuff some of the readers speculated about what you wrote was almost mild in comparison. My only question is do Jake and Ethen really want to live in Egypt? Other then their money being worth more there why would they want to? A few more random thoughts despite what Jenny and Alan did it should not be forgotten that they without hesitation they took in Cody under extreme circumstances. This was a rare gay teen fiction story where the police were competent. You hinted or Jake hinted I should say there may be a story from Ethen's POV Bravo for a great story

Growing up wayyyyy! back when a find like this would be front page news and lead the TV news program today I suspect this would just be mentioned in passing. It would still be a huge deal in the archaeology community but the general public meh.

You don't think Alan and a dinosaur....never mind

Well everybody here has covered all the bases on what happened so I'm going to ask something different why did Trevor think it was a good idea for Alan to be transferred to the U.S to work with COLIN!!!!! It may not have been his decision but .he could have done something to prevent that knowing Colin and Jenny's history.I'm sure he had no idea that it would play out like this but surely he must known have something could happen .We still have to consider Trevor being in on this in some way because he kept reassuring Jake that Colin couldn't do anything was Trevor that clueless?Or was it disinformation? Would not surprise me if the CIA or MI6 would still try to make it where Cody gets charged with murder.Can you murder someone who doesn't exist

So J.J. is 19 legally and 17 actually with that amount of time passing does this mean the story is now slightly into the future? J.J. now has dreams involving Shaun as well as his father he needs some professional help with this but he may be wary of getting it because he would have to tell the doctor his story I know there is Doctor/patient confidentiality but he still may not want to risk it.

I don't much about mythology but I know a little is this going to be a familiar name?

Trent's Aunt was a crack up It seems every good family has someone like her.Evan had noticed there was something between Matt and Trent and now so did Marie but geez announcing it to the whole restaurant lol.Trent finds outs Matt can cook yeah he's definitely a keeper. Now I'm going to make a couple of annoying guesses again.There wasn't even a passing reference to Trents parents which makes me think they may not be alive That could come into play say if Matt's Mom tries to see him and Matt refuses Trent could then say he wishes he chance to speak to his Mom again. The other thought is in all of Ron's stories his couple's always have a road block or hurdle to go through so what do I think might happen here? I totally believe Matt when he says he would never hurt Trent but as I mentioned in the past after Stephanie's story gets published someone from Matt's past will see it perhaps Ricky's Dad who will then tell Ricky who's out on the coast You can see what may happen then.Ricky comes to see Matt and asks all the questions like why didn't you come to me?We tried to find you etc.If Trent observes this knowing Matt and Ricky have a history his insecurities will show again. Thats my guess can't wait to see what happens

Neil's band actually playing at the party.I have a bad felling something is going to happen it won't be Neil's fault but somebody associated with him. Hope I'm wrong

Alan did mention Jake going to a foreign country now did mean The U.S. or Egypt? And I hope Trevor will have the good sense not to mention that as I'm sure there is going to be conversation between Trevor and Jakes folks and please don't let Colin er...Mike? know that I can hardly wait to hear the load of BS he is going to say.Does Colin/Mike know about Alan not being Jake's Dad? So glad Cody is going to see Luke and Luke's parents that was awfully cool of them to help in the travel expenses Luke must have shown a lot of signs how much he missed Cody for them to do that. Jake comparing what his parents did to Harold Shipman? A serial killer? Wow that was a bit over the top but not any more so then Jakes parents phony police scheme. I will say one thing I would also be very worried about Jake and his neglectful way he approaches checking his sugars

How many writers have their characters tell them about their progress?

Interesting.Since some things doesn't fit in Howard's mind is it possible they found something that will change what they once thought about the history of Alexander and Ptolemy? Or maybe add something new to it

ALL of this is just mind blowing Colin has to be the biggest a-hole.And you know something Jake has never been able to keep a secret any reason to think that will change now?And what if Alan sees the picture? And this question is aimed at @James Matthews WHY does your writing keep F-ing over Cody? What has he ever done to you????

If @chris191070 is right about the son It could make for an interesting day.It may be better for them if the kid is there no alarm then if the kid despises the parents he may even help them(Kidding on that part)

I understand Shaun's grief and the fact that his dad ignored J.J.'s safety recommendations and J.J.was found innocent of any wrong doing doesn't matter to Shaun and he's lashing out.Optimistically with time Shaun will understand and come to terms with things and maybe one day clear the air with J.J..Pessimistically Shaun might remain bitter and judging by the title of this story J.J. may one day be more high profile and if Shaun's still bitter and angry he might for some money make allegations public and that will mean J.J. past may come to light.What happens then? I hope it doesn't play out like that but it has to be considered.I'm not as smart as J.J. but I hope he is considering that possibility also.

I figured something having to do with the CIA would prevent Jake from leaving with Ethen but the details of it I had no clue. A question comes up was Callum really physically abused? Or was that a cover story.I don't think Ethen would allow that and would ask for Colin to stop it.Also Colin was using Ethen as an informant and he was under age that has to be illegal unless the age we were told isn't his real age.Regardless Colin took advantage of a venerable Ethen and that's chicken s---. Now the meeting with Trevor oh my what's going to be the fallout from that?

Does that mean you came up with something to add? Wow as if there isn't already enough can't wait

That picture of his Mother and Colin WTF? Does it mean they had an affair? When? The picture said "summer 2004" but that doesn't mean didn't they knew each other years before.Why was this sent to Jake?The possible explanations I can't wrap my mind around so I won't even guess I'll probably be wrong but I bet some others readers are thinking the same things and some of them are doozies. The e-mail Ethen got sends a red flag to me.He told Jake it was from" A guy he knew in the States" how well does he know this guy really?This person might know Colin and this e-mail might be a ploy to draw Ethen out . This is more evidence to Jake that they will always be looking over their shoulders.I would stay if I were Jake besides Cody still does it for him that's not the worst thing in the world.

Funny trying to remember Lewis earlier appearance in the story yeah he and James never saw each other although they crossed the same paths.I'm surprised Casper never mentioned him to James.When Lewis finds Charlie(I say when because if he doesn't find him the story stops here LOL) what is he exactly suppose to do then?
