You may also need an extra large tube or bottle of lube, some "smelling salts" and a packet of cigarettes @Avogadro1001. Much has been said about Liam and his "dick of death". If it is as dangerous and has parked in as many garages as speculated then why is the putrescent jizz-saturated Jessica still walking, talking and breathing. Bitch should be a corpse by now or at least severely bow-legged with permanently damaged vocal cords. I am in agreement with @Israfil, Liam may not be perfect, but he is the lesser of two evils. He will however need to be given a full suite of vaccinations and a thorough physical examination beforehand though as he has slept with that rancid skanky ho repeatedly. And just think, if Dylan does take a ride on the "colonic Concorde" he won't even need to leave the safety of the ground to join the "mile high club". And although I am a strict vegetarian, that is one slab of beef that may be hard (stop it @Cane23) to resist. I have but one question for you @Avogadro1001, did this song by Pansy Division inspire you to create Liam?

The "old fuddy duddy's" already have Jake charged and convicted of a sex crime. What would they make of Annie if she arrived in town looking like this @Al Norris? Dyke, transgender, transvestite, weirdo, Swedish porn star? I remember the "old fuddy duddy's" @Mark Ponyboy Peters. They had them in the mid north coast town I grew up in, probably relatives of the Thompsonville "old fuddy duddy's". Did you have them in your home town?

Damn it. If I wore eyeliner I would look like a raccoon now. What a glorious chapter @Superpride, with Todd totally surprising me with his candour. Was it the positive feedback about his art, or the interest from the curator, that gave him not a little push but an almighty shove to declare his attraction to Barrett, or did he pick up on Barrett’s apparent attraction to him. Whatever the impetus, it was wonderful (and very moving) to observe our little “ugly duckling” taking perhaps his first baby steps into his transformation into a beautiful swan. Speaking of the art curator, I do hope he is genuine in his interest in Todd’s art and not just in Todd himself. And what of Barrett’s desire to find his birth mother. I cannot of course understand as I was not adopted, but I do hope if his quest is successful he is not disappointed or worse still rebuffed. Will the universal truth of Kylie’s mega-hit prove true? What do you think @Cane23?

Hopefully his motives were purely altruistic because if not he could have potentially done more harm than good. I hope to be proven wrong, but I still don't completely trust him, much like Anthony. I guess I am ambivalent about both, and I feel one of them at least is the likely subject of the story title.

You and me both @Lee Wilson (the 1st sentence, not the 2nd).

The climate of the Cayman Islands would suit me perfectly @drsawzall, but it looks dangerously low-lying. It may not happen in my lifetime, but with rising sea levels it could become another Atlantis.

Ditto @Tris.

They were very popular at my local drive-in in the mid to late 70's, usually with a mattress thrown in the back.

He had blonde shoulder-length hair, was good looking and did not have a beer gut. Obviously "one of those".

"It was December, nineteen seventy-five, and while Australia might have been in turmoil, following the sacking of the Prime Minister in the previous month, life in Thompsonville was sweet for this small group of friends. They were all currently sixteen years old and enjoying their summer break from school, doing the usual stuff . . . hanging out at the beach, checking out chicks, buying burgers, milkshakes or Streets ice-creams from the corner store, and then hanging out at the beach some more. Yeah. Life really was pretty sweet." Of course life was pretty sweet @Mark Ponyboy Peters, ABBA hit #1 on the pop charts with Mamma Mia on 03/11/75 and stayed atop until 12/01/76 when they knocked themselves off that perch with SOS; and, over on the album charts ABBA was #1 from 08/12/75 to 23/02/76. Gough may have been given the bullet, but ABBA reigned supreme so life was good. I remember this story very well, even though it is set considerably earlier than After We Danced, The Rip and Song For Guy. If my recollection of Danny is true, then he is one of, if not my favourite, MPP creation. I found this story immensely moving the first time I read it and I suspect it will be again. A burnt orange Sandman. Gorgeous. I remember as a teenager my bedroom at my father's home had burnt orange walls, with seagrass matting floor covering and bright green bed linen. It was at a beachside town about 20 minutes from where my mother lived. I loved colour then as I do now, although I don't have anything in burnt orange, other than a really funky bedside lamp I bought in IKEA. A great start to this story @Mark Ponyboy Peters. My tear ducts have started leaking again already, although it has been very windy again today in Sydney and tomorrow we are supposedly having burn-off.

Another "bonzer" tale of teenage discovery of love, sex and the impending responsibilities of adult life, this time told primarily throughout the eyes of Tim, a somewhat shy young 16/17 year old. He is joined on a 12 month trip through his life by his best friend and confidant, Ben, and Guy, the "new kid in town" to whom Tim is immediately attracted upon meeting. Again a relatively small "cast" populate the landscape of this story with the three boys joined by Samantha, a delightful slightly older teenager to whom Ben is drawn. The usual quality writing one has come to expect from @Mark Ponyboy Peters, with well written characters, a lot of humour and some heartbreak, and some very significant popular song contributions.

I am intrigued as to what Francis' health scare may have been. Snorted one line too many, dropped a bad E, sniffed too much amyl, or something pedestrian like a urinary tract infection, a racing heart or an empty bank account. I initially thought Francis enigmatic and misunderstood. I have come to think he is merely sleazy, unethical and exploitative (and this is towards his so called "friends"). He appears to have certainly used Vaughan and the gift he was given sounded "dodgy" at best. 'The Last Party' may be Francis' final opportunity to seduce Dante, something which I think he has been intent on doing for some time now. Neither Dante nor Vaughan seem keen on the prospect; I just hope Francis does not have any "leverage" he can use on either to ensure Dante's compliance with his command. I think Mother will likely be tickled pink at the sight of all those dicks, and will almost certainly have something witty to say. How will the boys fare cohabiting? I think they are taking a very sensible approachable with having a "me" space where they can retreat to if tempers fray or they just need some time to themselves to indulge in their "own thing" (I would have to have my own "disco room" @Cane23). Similarly to @centexhairysub I felt this chapter had a sense of foreboding to it. You cannot finish too soon though @Robert Hugill; Gran will not be best pleased if her Dante is not at least married by the end of this story and better still with a little panino in someone's "oven".

Todd's self-esteem is very low, it definitely needs a boost. I hope the interest in his artwork at Bottoms Up leads to something meaningful for him, even if it is only recognition to begin with, although some more cash for him would no doubt come in handy too. I am still "guarded" about Channing. He may be completely innocent, a very good friend for Todd to have, but I still have my doubts. Barrett is I believe interested in Todd but due to inexperience he may not make it known for some time yet. I am really enjoying this story @Superpride. I remember back, far far back, when I was in my awkward early 20's. Life was a puzzle, AIDS was taking its toll and Madonna was emerging as a global superstar. Both Todd and Barrett appear reticent, almost Like A Virgin.

I also appreciated your comment @Avogadro1001 regarding Dylan consistently mixing thoughts of the pre-violence Liam and the post-violence Liam. One thing I also observed which struck a chord with me was Liam's comment about him "popping his first boner" when Dylan was sleeping over and he was about 13. Is there a link perhaps between Liam's violent rages and the onset of puberty, apart from the obvious impact(s) it has seemingly had. I'm going to "edge" myself and delay the "pleasure" of reading chapter 21 until tomorrow night. It is 11.25pm in Sydney, Australia, and I am desperate to have an early night to bed as today was a long and stressful work day, even though I worked from home as is my wont of late.

I think the graphic sex served this chapter very well @Avogadro1001, and not just because it was 🚬🌶️. I found your comment "maybe, he just wants to fuck him coz he’s done being a goody-two-shoes" very interesting and intriguing. I thought something akin to this while reading this chapter as Dylan has only had sex with one man as far as we know and he took some time to arrive at that juncture. He appears to be very different from many others his age, particularly if you compare him to someone like jizz-saturated Jessica. His father was also a very poor role model and damaged Dylan's perception of himself as worthy and manly. Has he found sex liberating and affirming of his masculinity or is he now allowing himself the "luxury" of being a horny teenage male? Dare I say Dylan may even be subconsciously (or better yet consciously) using Liam to rid himself of Jake, sort of like I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair with a "gay twist".

I don't think any of us should try anal-yzing Anthony @Cane23, not given the amount of junk food, burgers and fries he eats. I would not like to be on the receiving end of anything from that booty.

"The room reeked of our combined sweat. I didn’t know what was up with air conditioning in Henderson mansion, but something was clearly off. Liam was quietly snoring, the corner of his drooling mouth twitching as it always did. I guess some things about him haven’t changed one bit. I hardly got our damp, naked bodies to separate without waking him up, and sat on the bed to take a deep breath and process what happened. The pinkish imprint of my sleeping silhouette was clearly visible on his torso and I swallowed, glancing at his hard abs. Even in his sleep - a state of complete serenity and relaxation, the muscles on his stomach looked like they were carved out of a mountain. Six perfectly shaped cubes, ending at the V-shaped valley of his trimmed dark pubes, leading all the way down to…" OMG “poor” Dylan. It must have been like waking up on the set of a Raging Stallion, Falcon or Hot House porn shoot. Just be thankful Jessica’s wet knickers were not anywhere near by. "The interior of his bathroom was very strikingly lavish. The room was spacious and well-decorated, there was a hot tub in the corner, a walk-in tropical shower along the entire left side of the room, as well as a floating vanity with two separate sinks" and "Walking inside the shower area I turned the faucet and stood under the rain. I felt the tension in my shoulders dissipate, took a deep breath and finally relaxed, trying not to dwell on my thoughts." I’d sleep with Liam just for the opportunity of bathing in such luxury. "I grabbed the sheets and twisted them, tearing the fabric. My toes curled, I bit my lip and watched my flat stomach come up and down in spasms, as he started eating my ass. His arms were holding my thighs pressed down, cutting blood supply to my legs, as he buried his face deeper into my ass and scratched the fuck out of my sensitive skin with his bristle. His tongue was punching into my hole, sliding inside and rotating in circles, teeth tapping down the edges of my spastically contracting sphincter, lips holding my anus in a fucking vacuum seal, as he was frenching with my hole the exact same way he just did with my mouth. My aching dick was begging for attention, I tried to grab a hold of it, but he didn’t let me. He was fucking strong, exerting full control even in this position. I could see his eyes watering, he groaned through his stuffed mouth, ravishing my hole like the most delicious meal. Billions of nerve endings firing and shocking my body, introducing me to pleasure I never knew existed. What the fuck… Writhing on the bed like a snake on a frying pan, I wondered if his talented mouth was trained on all the fucking pussy he ate though the years. Whatever it was, I wasn’t going to complain." OMG again, to the power of infinity. I challenge anyone to have withstood such an onslaught of ecstasy. The tongue of Gene Simmons, and the passion for, and skills at, eating arse like Cutler X, Drew Valentino and Derek Kage combined. Quick, call the fire brigade and an EMT, now sweetie now. "I used a hefty portion of my strength to bring his penis into a standing position, looking at it with a gentle touch of despair. It was heavy and hard as a rock. It was motherfucking huge. It was going to kill me. “Okay…” I sighed. “Let me see what I can do.” With something that big entering the body of the much smaller Dylan who knows where “its” journey will end. Dylan could find himself literally talking out his arse. I hope he has good dental coverage. Perhaps Donna knows. In all seriousness, it is hard (oh stop it @Cane23) to imagine how Dylan could “forget”, even temporarily, all the torment, both physical and mental, he has suffered at the hands of Liam, so that he could have sex with him. For all his insistence it will just be sex, I think there is still a stronger attraction to Liam than Dylan is prepared to admit, especially to himself. I fear Dylan won’t be able to downplay the sex post-orgasm as “just sex”. And who are we mere mortal readers to criticise him for that. Would we be able to resist a promise of such ecstasy, even at the risk of a total hysterectomy (OK well maybe not one of those, but perhaps something akin)? Well @Avogadro1001 I have to wonder if you are not only an author on GA but also a writer/director/producer/photographer and fluffer for adult films. The Barbra Streisand of gay erotica, but can you sing? Has my comment made you all verklempt?

What memories thank you "Effie". I have never seen Bob Hudson before so it was interesting to see what he looked like. He is 77 years of age now, thus he was about 27 when the song was a massive #1 hit for 4 weeks. I vaguely remember seeing Maureen Elkner on Countdown singing Rak Off Normie. It was not quite as big a hit as it peaked at #11 the following year.

Bitch! Dannii was wrong. Maybe you are the "inspiration" for the story @Cane23. We shall have to ask Roberta Kelly.

Damn, I do so hate to be proven wrong. In this case it appears Anthony is not the complete arsehole I thought he may be, although even he acknowledges lying to Todd to protect him was not the best way to have handled the situation which he, Anthony, believed existed. I liked Andrea and Lacy instantly. Andrea appears to be very caring and Lacy is a golden retriever so she must be near perfect. The black bean burgers would be delicious. I regularly have a vegan black bean, beetroot and caramelised onion burger which I enjoy immensely. They may be a little "troublesome" for the digestive system of some who eat them though - @drsawzall you may find yourself in trouble with mother again for unacceptable behaviour in the living room. Another enjoyable chapter @Superpride. I am concerned though with the appearance of Channing in Marty's at the conclusion of the chapter. If he also proves not to be the egotistical bastard I have accused him of being I shall be sadly disappointed. I will only have Todd and Anthony's father to dislike. Could this be an omen? This will just not do; perhaps Damien will play a bigger part in the story and prove himself "worthy" of his name.

The real "problem" is @Cane23 he is not perfect like @Tris, @drsawzall, yourself and myself. Kylie's sister, Dannii, describes us best.

Worker's rights? Employee protection and insurance cover?

It's reassuring to know I am not the only suspicious SOB @Philippe. I thought of the kidnapping angle too because I had suspicions that Evelyn may have known spermie and the incubator and thought somehow Brendan had framed them and turned their children against them. I did not think of having Lanny stay with them first, but that would have been a good indication of Evelyn's sincerity had she consented to that. I thought Ral was a bit smarmy too.

You aren't single @Tris so you must be doing something right.

Jill's sense of humour continues to amaze me @Lee Wilson, particularly given her age and after what she has been through. Perhaps it is one of her coping mechanisms. “I’m guessing that body part was ‘south of the border?’” “Indeed, it was, Jill.” “I know you won’t like me saying this, but I think that’s fucking awesome.” She has a very quick wit and an acerbic tongue. A very appealing sense of humour. I was very impressed with the explanation of Steve's stuttering "discrepancies". Is this something you researched or had previously known of? I said the sentences myself and noticed the difference. Absolutely amazing. I must be a suspicious SOB because there is no way I would have been comfortable allowing Steve to stay at Lanny's home with that Harper harpy. I know she apologised, but I doubted her sincerity and still did not trust her afterward. I am glad to see that my suspicions appear to have been unwarranted. I hope Brendan catered for Theresa at the Thanksgiving gathering. Granny Pottymouth has some wonderful vegan recipes on her Youtube channel. Instead of that disgusting turducken she has a tofucken and her video on how to prepare it is hysterical.
