Good question. Time to find out, methinks. (... Okay so this was supposed to be punctuated by me posting a new chapter, but I'm still in the moderation queue, so it's gonna take a little while. Let's all just pretend this was as cool as I meant it to be- oh hey, it's published.)

Agreed.
-
Quite probably.

All good points. She has some learnin' to do.

Glad you liked it. I'm happy to have you reading, Buz. "They obviously all love each other but James and his Parents are at the stage of not knowing what to do, basically. Trying so hard not to make a truly bad situation even worse but wanting so much to protect each other from any further hurt, etc." That part there was really well said.

Tasha: The girl stood at the entrance to the apartment block, feeling strangely self conscious, even in the empty, moonlit street. Of all the changes she’d made to her attire in the past few days, the dark green cloak that now shrouded her was debatably the most flamboyant, competing with the cheap white plastic theater mask that now covered her face. She shook herself. Appearance didn’t matter. What mattered was effectiveness, and if these new additions helped give her an edge in this seco

Thank you very much! I'm glad you're liking it so far and finding it easy enough to read. I have to admit, I'm suffering from retrospective author vision a bit. I keep looking over these chapters as I re-post them and going: "oh, dear. Was my writing really that awkward back then?", so it's nice to know that the jankiness seems to mostly be in my head. That being said, I'm reliably informed that the quality takes an up-swing as the story progresses, so I hope it gets better for ya. Thanks for reading!

Interesting. I'm not sure if I agree. Not meaning to deny your viewpoint at all, but, to my experience, anxiety doesn't go away just because you're aware that there's nothing to worry about. To me, her concern is more a result of being, well, traumatized. Her son was raped. She's having trouble letting go because, last time she wasn't there to protect him, he was violated. That's enough to give someone a complex. I don't think she'd be having an easier time with that, regardless of what she knows. As for James being targeted for being Peter's son... If that were the case, yeah. She'd be pissed.

I think he's having a hard time with trust generally at the moment.

Glad you think so. 🙂

Interesting conclusions. I would note, though. You mentioned Sarah being more emotional about James going back to school. I'm curious. Why would that point to her knowing less about what's going on? I'm not criticizing. Just curious about why you say so. To my mind, the intensity of her emotional response is more of a reaction to being a caring mother in a difficult situation than to any particular lack of knowledge.

Doctor’s notes, Subject #24170. Alias: David. Session 2. Notes and recommendations of attendant therapist, Natalie Sharpe: In the week since our previous session, David has continued to exhibit no noticeable changes indicative of deviant manifestation. The observation period has been closed and the all clear provided early due to special circumstances.

Indeedly so.

I liked that line too. 🙂

Hehe. James isn't really aware of his sexuality yet, one way or the other. What you're talking about may well come into things. But not for a little while yet.

James: The two boys walked together in an awkward silence, neither one entirely sure of what they were supposed to say. James didn’t like the idea that the other boy could tell what he was feeling. It made him nervous, and the fact that he knew Casper could probably feel that nervousness wasn’t helping. A small part of him cursed the thin width of the sidewalk that prevented him from standing a little further out from the other boy without it being obvious. A larger part of him wished he’d

I sincerely hope so. 🙂

My thanks. 😛

Things do seem to be coming together, rather.

Interesting perspective. Hard to speak to most of it without either lying, or giving spoilers. In fairness to Peter, I'll just say he's paying closer attention than you think. I mean, he did point out that the post-traumatic superpower screening at the start was his idea. He can't exactly be blamed for not having spotted the powers yet. James only developed them like, yesterday.

4:30 PM, New York: Peter rose from his desk with a sigh, clasping his hands together behind his head and pulling them backwards in an effort to stretch his cramped muscles. God damn he hated his job sometimes. He glanced back down at the mound of paperwork littering his work-space, each page marked with colored tabs, noting particular key words. He really would have preferred to do more of his work by computer, but the vast majority of his contacts refused to communicate via anything more e

Thank you. 🙂

Heh. It's still not done yet. I've been writing it since late 2017. I just started posting here cuz I only recently discovered the site. But I recently found out that I'm on like, 102 total chapters so far. Heh. You guys are in for a real harsh drop in about three months time when I run out of chapters for the daily updates. I'm not even close to a chapter a day writer anymore. As it stands, the full story is about the size of the first Game of Thrones book.
-
Oohhh. This is so hard to answer without spoilers. Cuz I already know what happens next. For like, the next ninety five or so chapters. You guys are barely getting started. Talking spoilers is way too tempting.

Good question.
