When they had finished their midnight snack, they poured themselves each a cup of hot chocolate and stretched out on Sage's fat Ikea sofa, dragging the radiator closer. Most of the lights in Sage's apartment were dysfunctional, so they turned on the TV and watched the Discovery channel in silence. Callen bit his knuckles and looked over at his friend. Sage's vision was fixated ahead, his eyes half open. He looked at peace, sharp jawline illuminated in blue lighting, one hand clasping his mug. H

It was January in Ephrata, and the air of the Pacific was deep and frigid. Overnight, it brought a huge torrent of snow down the west and dumped it all over the town. Like many other small villages in the area, Ephrata had begun preliminary expansion to accommodate more immigrants. Ice covered much of the irrigated, flattened land. Sage was ten and Callen was eleven. Both were due to graduate to middle school – the only middle school in town – in a few months. It was three in the afternoon

Sage Hefferman sat alone on top of the black iron external stairwell of his dingy, seventh floored apartment, breathing smoke out of his nose. Wrapped in two sweaters and a heavy black jacket, he watched the light pillars of the Okanogan grow in length, a steaming cup of Campbell's chunky soup in his right glove and a cigarette in his left. His apartment, situated at the fringe of New Seatrouver, faced north and had a perfect view of the snow filled landscape and the frozen expanse of Lake

S i x S e c o n d s I have realized that the past and the future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is. ~ Alan Watts Muscles heavy and sore from his latest snowboarding expedition, Callen fought to stay awake as he sped down the old, excavated road down Blackcomb Mountain. He cranked the radio with his chapped fingers, but in this weather it was all discordant noises and static buzzes. Huge, fluffy snowfl

I am literally such a big fan and obviously have no life so just made this. I don't need to go to school anymore.

Neither am I. Domluka is not a drug; it is a lifestyle.

Domluka Dom-lue-kah Proper Noun 1. A famous author who has written a quality body of online fiction full of LGBT characters Fishwings has fallen in love with but is unfortunately on a long hiatus. Sentence Dude 1: "Hey have you read any of Domluka's stories?" Dude 2: "Yes and now I've turned gay."

That is SO COOL D:

You're right. I'm not sure if the archived rule applies to Hosted Authors, I'll have to check, but that's definitely the case for all other authors. I think discussion forums are a good addition to the reviews but I agree, it can't replace them.

Hi Daithi. Yes, I will be working on a sequel, and I am thinking of doing a major rewrite of this story as well, but it will be after I finish and post some of my other stories. Thank you for reading and taking the time to review : ) I think some others had qualms about this ending too haha.

Yeah his body guards are sharp!

I found my new life motto. "Domaholics never die, nor do we fade away." Yeeeeahhhh!

Haha, yep! Good as dead. Thanks for reviewing

I know what you mean. I've been fighting procrastination my whole life. I feel like I'm just not built to study, and whenever finals/midterms loom around I cram like a mothereffing madman. Right now I'm desperately trying to get my head together for my next midterm but I'd rather do things that I love as well :< *raises glass* Cheers

Nah you di-int! D: I think the thing about ITFB is I that I pretty much approached it as a non-sequel to the log way (yes I'm going to call it the "log" way forever) and thus let go all of the aiden and owen parts. I must admit, I actually SKIPPED all the aiden + owen angst in ITFB hahaha. It's tricky though -- you have to forget about aiden + owen and remember all that stuff about Dennis in order to enjoy ITFB fully, or maybe that's just me. I think we should all pool in our money to buy plane tickets to visit Dom and then kidnap him.

I VOLUNTEER : D!! I'll probably write one for either TOSM or ITFB and I'll pm it to you in a few weeks. I'm sorry I just had to make this edit.

This. Is. So. Cute. Holy shit. I was just looking up the different colours of roses to decide on which one to buy on Valentine's day haha. Tony seems like a very sweet guy. Your shorts are very, very well done. You can convey so much in so few words. Great job! I'll be definitely checking out the rest of your work.
-
This was GREAT! This story was to-the-point and full of emotion without a touch of purple. Great job Lab.

I think I will forever associate that story with a log as well. Also, his books are on GoodReads so they still get attention I'm sure! Reading reviews on there it seems like a lot of n00bs don't like the Fishbowl because Owen + Aiden aren't really talked about. Honestly I liked Travis + Dennis a lot better but that might be because I spent a lot of time away from the log way.
-
I think Domluka's work will always be read. Just keep an eye on the view count on his stories if it matters that much. But while we're at it, I think everyone who's registered at this site should read The Other Side of Me! One of my favourites. The Other Side of Me My other favourite would be In the Fishbowl, but Mike already linked it.

Happy belated birthday! Hope you had a good one

This is terrible to hear :< I hope all of you will be alright. *hugs*
