    Please let it be Bob the builder's!

    Did you ever find anything interesting in Chester's drawers?

    I'll bring the champagne and my half a brain and we can not do yoga!

    My current best guesses on who "they" is : Trevor, Jenny, and/or Bob the builder. I don't know if it's a sign or a weird coincidence, but when I typed the colon in the last sentence on my kindle, one of the word suggestions (the only suggestion that was not an article) was Trevor! It didn't even give me Trevor as a choice just now until I typed trevo! I know what Cynthia would say!

    Terry is well and truly down the rabbit hole! Fortunately, he has Dan and Cynthia to pull him back out.

    Loren needed this wake-up call or he will turn into Jay's mom. Much loved by all around them, but living only by their own rules, and being placated by all their loved ones. Loren was the one to spot that behavior in someone else, but can't see it in himself. We know they get back together eventually, but hopefully it happens because Loren comes to this realization, not because Jay caves.

    I've enjoyed Eric's journey into the modern world. His transformation from a lonely, bitter, completely out of touch old man to a man with close friends, a comfortable home, and a purpose in life. He even has a computer and a phone! I love that he generally doesn't know how to use them and is still crabby as hell. Eric feels like a real person and I will miss him.

    Elpidio's name was bandied around by us in previous comments. How does it feel to have such intelligent readers? I know we Liebe back in great shape, we know Lincoln is still around years from now, we don't know if CJ is hurt, but we know he'll be ok. And more famous.

    This is a fast-paced, exciting read. The author does a fantastic job of creating a sense of urgency and realism. Even though our technology and world events have changed a bit since this was published, it felt timely and cautionary.

    Great story, I just read it for the first time.

    Baby Mugget

    CincyKris commented on Mrsgnomie's story chapter in Baby Mugget

    I loved the interactions between Loe and Aido, they were kind of a team of two. Seamus, Matt, and the Tot were a team of three. Jay was the referee. We already know the outcome of Mexico, but we are going in with a new perspective. I'm very apprehensive about the big twin reunion. I agree with @drsawzall, Lars seemed a little more "I'm the victim" than "I'm sorry".

    Yes!!! Dirk's bear is back, and his mate is his coworker. Good thing he didn't spring for that gym membership yet! Also, note to Tina -- too bad, so sad, another one lost to the better team!

    Five of Cups

    CincyKris commented on Mawgrim's story chapter in Five of Cups

    I couldn't agree more. At least we can rule out anyone currently working at the cinema, except for Colin. Still, I can't see Colin stealing an SUV and running a sick old man down in front of the place he works. Terry needs to be very careful. I'm not sure why, but I feel a little relieved that the police know the story (sort of). It's not going to help poor Maurice be less dead, or put Terry and Dan in less danger. We desperately need a seance!

    I truly don't care whether they settle in Iowa, Washington, or somewhere else. I just think it was a little one-sided that everyone but @Geemeedeeand myself assumed that it was going to be Alec that uprooted his life and moved. People live their own lives away from the small town and families they grew up in all the time. It doesn't mean they are cutting their family out of their lives. This town is not a prison (although it certainly was to Alec and River at one time).

    Then it's a good thing he's partnered with a software and gaming developer.

    I agree completely with @Geemeedee, why can't Finn move to Washington? He is a partner in the gym, he can be a financial partner from anywhere in the world. They can hire another trainer. I guarantee that if Milo knew that Finn was currently using him as an excuse to break things off with Alec, he would kick his ass. As for what is waiting for Alec in Washington: his house, his friends, his job. His whole life is not summed up by his sexual relationships. Why should Alec be the one who gives up everything? Also, this is not a 100 years ago! With planes, skype, FaceTime Finn can keep in close contact with his family. Millions of people do it everyday.

    Chapter 8

    I'm hoping the mention in an earlier chapter of the extinction event 250 million years ago is not related!

    Just started reading this post-covid. The mention of a potential pandemic causing such a response was not entirely off the mark. Great story so far.

    Chapter 91

    CincyKris commented on Cia's story chapter in Chapter 91

    I can't decide whether Timok is a more aggressive version of Essell's father (completely consumed by his profession) or more sinister. I guess we'll find out eventually. Let's hope Essell doesn't get drunk and do something embarrassing. Let's also hope that if the Kardoval try something evil that Bouncer does to them what he did to the pillow!

    While I'm not a Bourbon Bloodhound, I do like my bourbon. I've been to the Buffalo Trace distillery in Frankfort, they have free tours and tastings. Your bloodhounds could easily drive to Frankfort and buy their Eagle Rare, but they do not sell Pappy Van Winkle at their gift shop. I'm a fan of dingey, bare bones liquor stores that just sell liquor, we have one in our working class town. No pretensions or gentrification. Have you had any customers today wearing tight boxer briefs as shorts? I have. At a garden center. I thought the little old lady buying petunias was going to get whiplash!

    Wow!!!! Alec finally tells his mother off, and his father does the same! Alec finally admits to himself that it's ok to like Finn! So many strides forward.

    My mind is plenty open, I love science fiction. The vampire parts of your story are great, your characters are engaging. But when you introduce an argument between your characters and reference "science", you leave yourself open to scientific debate.

    Just an FYI, the theory of Lemuria has been completely disproved by our knowledge of plate tectonics. There are a few "sunken continents" and former land bridges in the oceans, but Lemuria is most definitely not one of them. Our current technology allows us to map the oceans, even if we haven't explored all the depths. No such remnants exist of this mythological continent. The myth was created to explain the existence of lemur fossils in Madagascar and India, but not in the surrounding land masses. We now know about plate tectonics and can scientifically test rock samples to know which pieces of land used to connect.

    Poor Jack, if he had only visited Terry the following evening at Dan's, he could've enjoyed a little celestial voyeurism!

    I was also thinking that George may be involved. Could Terry's inquiries have restarted the buried drama?
