I totally agree with you. There is only 1 chapter so far that I wasn’t rolling on the floor. I don’t know who I feel sorry more for Andy or Ronan…Lucas is definitely a handful, but also so lovable.

Maybe it is just because of the raw meat...but I thought Andy didn't eat food. Or am I mixing up my stories.

I'm missing something key in this story....when the hell did Lucas and Andy break up? I know Lucas claimed/humped Ronan when he had his werewolf conversion and he referred to both Andy and Ronan as his bitches. How could I have missed something this huge? And if they are broken up and Lucas is solely with Ronan, why would he care and/or help Declan with dating advice to nab Andy

For the 1st time in now 18 chapters, I wasn't laughing my ass off! I'm really sad right now for Andy! Hopefully he and Marcus can find away to defeat Esca, although I doubt it. This chapter has really put me in a bad mood. Not even the usual shenanigans from Lucas can offset that right now.

I agree 100%. I'm thinking he is the brains and the braun of Aerhelgard (that is a mouthful). So I came across this story a few days ago and have been reading like a mad man catching up. I've not taken the time until now to even comment, I just wanted to read the chapter and the next and so forth. I've been reading Toher Lydon's stories for quite some time and really enjoy his writing. I don't think I've laughed this hard, reading a story, ever. Seriously laughing non-stop. Lucas is one-of-a-kind and poor Andy. Poor Andy is who had the mis-fortune, or fortune to fall for the live electric wire. I feel like Paul Harvey...the moral of the story...make sure you know which window to climb through.

I just realized about 11 chapters have been released on AD since the last chapter on GA. That’s almost 3 months ago since we last heard from LB. I certainly cheer him on meeting someone and enjoying each others company, but coming up for air is healthy too.

I don’t mind reading the story on AD, but I do miss all the comments and the ability to comment. I too wish we would hear something soon from LB if for no other reason than for all of us to know he is well. Also with his absence here, it makes me wonder how far back we now wait on other stories that we nearing completion.

I just started reading this story 2 todays ago and I'm craving so much more. Well written and compelling. I hope part explores more with Billy & Dylan but we also need to see how Brandon & Tylers relationship shakes out during their senior year. Will Tyler pass Calc with an "A" and pull his GPA up (ok with this one I'm not at all happy with dear old dad...3.5 GPA is damned good and parents should support him with college regardless), what happens with Ryan, does Marcus cave into the busty young lady (love Marcus by the way), and so much more to answer. Can't wait for the release of part 2.

Is this story on hold?

Miguel is really starting to impress me. I would have loved to hear dear old dad’s thoughts and/or discussions with Juan Carlos after that dinner. Miquel was passionate and sharp.

It’s sad to me that everyone around Hunter sees that he is not himself. Everyone but the adults who are supposed to be looking after him and guiding him. But a big part of Hunter’s disappearance is because of these “caring” adults. I hope they open their eyes to the turmoil they are helping to create in Hunter.

I’m behind on my reading and just finished the newest chapter today (Monday). I was reading about the cheese in hot chocolate and was actually disgusted. I love hot chocolate and queso is my absolute favorite on all my Tex-Mex, but the 2 together is an absolute no-no. So on a personal side, I am very curious….you may or may not have mentioned in your writings…are you from the U.S. and now living in Columbia? I’ve only been to Cartagena and absolutely loved it there. Beautiful city and what I saw, beautiful country. I thought it may be a coincidence that you met someone new while writing a story based on the city you now life in. BUT, I’m not a big believer in coincidence, so maybe just maybe this was your fate to live out.

I was thinking about the "Blood Brothers" oath they all took. Yeison states "If you go first, I'll follow". Yeison isn't looking for someone better or has Hunter as a placeholder. Yeison is (well was) committed to Hunter just like he committed to the blood oath. Within a few hours the whole ceremony Hunter orchestrated was blown up. If Yeison continues to date Hunter, does that push Carlos from the group? If Hunter demonstrates that he wants Carlos to stay in the group, does that drive a wedge between himself and Yeison. Seems like everything I'm reading over that last few days just leaves me irritated with how these characters are behaving. DRAMA.

Congrats and I wish you well with this new young man in your life. What a fantastic way to start 2026! Now that he is gone, I'm gonna crack my imaginary whip to get you busy😂. We definitely need more of this story and of course, I along with I'm sure a flock of others, anxiously await the next installment of "Swinging For The Fences". You are really an amazing writer, thank you very much for all your hard work.

Wow, so close yet so far…I lived in Big D, just off of sissy springs until 2000 when I moved to San Francisco Bay Area. Sadly my husband retired forcing us to leave the beauty and great weather of California. Now I’m on the other side of the Metroplex in NW FTW (Saginaw). I know right where Lewisville HS is located too. I’m a die hard OU Sooner, graduated in 1987 and moved to Dallas at that time. I absolutely love this story and have been following for quite a while on Nifty. I do support Nifty but I prefer the GA platform simply because they make it so much more easy to chat with other readers and the author. Can’t wait to see what TJ does next…TJ reminds me of someone (self) with his smart-ass mouth and vocabulary of a sailor.
