    Chapter 31

    I find it interesting that the comments are so much more condemning for this chapter than the similar one with Mallory.

    Chapter 14

    Things are certainly heating up! I hope that Cyn doesn't get caught in the crossfire.

    Chapter 38

    I agree that the "spilling the perfume" was accidental. Maddie knows way more than she's letting on. Jimmy's letting his desperate need to protect his mate cause him to be sloppy. A week is such a long time!

    Chapter 27

    I am surprised it took this long for Essell to ask questions about the four-arms. I wish I didn't have to wait a whole week to find out what is wrong.

    Chapter 26

    Beautiful chapter. Thank you.

    Chapter 25

    I knew it was going to happen but I still cried. I have a feeling that Andre's death will be a defining moment in JP's life.

    Chapter 23

    I did not experience the Cuban missile crisis, but your description puts me there. I was 31 on 9/11/01 and remember being glued to the radio at work and the tv at home.

    Chapter 22

    Hopefully dear old dad fires Fred. I was impressed by Frank. I'm concerned about Andre.

    Chapter 21

    Such a fun chapter! JP seems to have a habit of picking up and fostering strays.

    Chapter 20

    I'm guessing that Stefan got caught with his English tutor. The scenes with Jeff seem bittersweet since I'm aware (due to the comments) that happiness is not in their future.

    Chapter 19

    I don't think of myself as cold and ruthless, but the world is better off without some people. An evil, abusive white supremacist is a good example.

    Chapter 18

    I would like to think that JP would have stopped if Mallory hadn't been so into it. Not sure if that's true or not, but it's a moot point, since Mallory loved every second.

    Chapter 17

    I enjoyed this well-written chapter. I liked how JP handled jensen, I hope he covers all the bases (and his ass) during his quest to vanquish the old malcontent.

    Chapter 16

    This was a very nice chapter. Such a beautiful scene between JP and Jeff.

    Chapter 15

    Because we are party to JP's inner thoughts and insecurities, sometimes it's easy to forget how smooth and charming he can be. Greasing the wheels of bureaucracy is something that has never gone out of style.

    Chapter 14

    I empathize with the above comment, but I can't seem to stop myself. Some things have improved dramatically in the almost 60 years since this story was set. The cultural and social standing of LGBT people, the ability of children and spouses of abusers (like Jeff's father) to escape and prosecute stand out. But, the ability to travel 500 miles and actually get away from problems is regrettably gone.

    Chapter 13

    I'm glad that JP let go some of his anger towards his mother. I'm angry at Stefan, but would have been surprised if he had reacted any other way. I was pleasantly surprised by Jeff. After last chapter's spoiler in the comments, I know more than I want to about Jeff's future, but I still look forward to seeing their relationship build. I can't even imagine the fear that these young men must have felt from being "found out". One of the many shames this country still has to bear.

    Chapter 13

    Great chapter! It's nice to see Cyn becoming more comfortable in his human form.

    Chapter 12

    That last comment was a hell of a spoiler to a new reader!

    Chapter 9

    I was wondering if Marc was the friend from the Sorbonne. I hope this doesn't come back to bite JP in the ass.

    Chapter 7

    I did not expect that. I have a feeling that Andre joining the army right before the Vietnam war will not end well. At least they shared their love for each other.
  22. CincyKris

    Chapter 4

    It's interesting to read the comments from people who are rereading. I'm getting glimpses of the future. I'm surprised that Frank will be featured. The bar scene almost had a "Glory Days" feel to it.

    Chapter 3

    I have a feeling Peter will do well for himself in L.A. It's nice to see JP growing as a person.

    Chapter 2

    For such a self-controlled young man, JP certainly has his moments of daring unpredictability! Another moment that stood out for me, was having to wait for a newspaper to be flown to the U.S. to get an accurate accounting of world events.
  25. I have not read this before, not sure why not. I think I was intimidated by the time commitment. This is very well written. We know so much about JP, just from his interactions with others.
