I highlight and listen to the stories here by using my txt to speak option using voice Siri #5 on my iPhone. It sounds like a teen boy to me. This story was the first story I did this with. To me, it’s Zack’s voice. It’s become Comsie’s. Sigh it’s just not the same here without him 😔

The rumor mill is a fire on the dusty Great Plains. Robbie just confirmed everyone’s prior suspicions by his behavior at the rehearsal. Tomorrow should be interesting at school. What shocks me is that Nicola hasn’t confronted him privately yet. I mean Amy sort of almost did, she wanted to anyway. That conversation between Amy and Robbie was a perfect display of how much kids Amy’s age pick up on things but have questions to confirm their suspicions even in their own little ways of understanding. The point is they notice much more than they typically let on and they can only hold their questions for so long until it drives them nuts. The nice reveal here is that Amy knew to wait until she had Robbie to herself to ask him instead of blurting it out at say the dinner table. Making good on the math class will earn Robbie more support from the faculty once the news is out for sure of his orientation because there clearly will be some flak he will have to defend himself and Nathan from. Literally is some cases I suspect. I also don’t think Robbie realizes how talented he might be nor how much support he has towards acting and coming out. He’s had to act pretty much most of his teenage years in most situations in attempts at covering his true orientation, he just needs proper training. I say go for it.

First off, Robbie had every right to get pissed at Nicola for answering his phone without his permission. Her nosiness is going to cause more issues and quickly. Secondly, I still say once she does find out, SHE will be Robbie’s most staunchest supporter and confidant. I don’t even think she knows it yet

Sniff 😢… this makes so much more sense now. Even still, I’m still in a bit of denial

My Only Escape was very similar to my experience and sigh…. I’m still in denial he’s gone.. I keep looking for a new post, SOMETHING .😪

@Blue Dhalia that was beautiful. Got me in tears all over again 😭

We never know when our time is up. We have but one life to live. I’m of the mentality to make the most of it. I think Comsi would not want you to hold regrets. He wanted to reply back to my dm after I broke down and told him of my past trauma. He promised he would reply with a longer response but he said he was swamped at the moment. I think he was trying to shore up what he could knowing his time was close without actually saying it. Liver failure isn’t something that happens overnight. He had to know. I just wish I discovered GA years ago instead of nearly a yr ago😔 perhaps I would’ve gotten to know him better. I’m happy for what I did get don’t get me wrong..I’m sorry I’m just trying to get my mind settled and it refuses

I don’t REALLY me to rush you of course. Not good things such as this. So it’s all in jest of course. But I won’t lie, I’m not the most patient person especially when I’m hooked on stories such as these. In all seriousness, take the time needed to do it right. 😘

Idk, to me, the twin’s attachment seemed more typical of a cousin staying over for the summer and the younger sibs trying to contain their excitement and make up for lost time in 5 minutes or less, constantly vying for their attention. But perhaps you’re right.

MORE! So hot and so cute. And you’re right. Nothing can be taken for granted. While I appreciate the quick turnaround for chapter releases, I love long reads. That said, it’s difficult to write long chapters quickly for posting. So I’m at an impasse and can’t decide what I want more of 🤪 Now, poor Mike is one confused boy. In some areas, Liam cleared up a LOT of suspicion by whether he was gay, and actually wanting to mess around or simply just using Mike’s attraction as a means to an end to get rid of the sooo annoying teenage horniness. On the other hand, there seems to be a bit of drama or at least tension between Liam and his parents. I hope more is disclosed about that. It didn’t seem like there was open disagreement between Liam’s parents and himself prior to this but maybe it’s just been well hidden. What’s going on there? 3 days is a while not to talk to your parents as a teen while you’re still living under the same roof

Yep. Looking back now at your most recent posts…I think you knew. Oh Comsi…you are missed my friend😭

I think you knew then your time was short. Such a legacy you’ve left behind. The more I delve your writing the more of an impact you’ve left. I hope your sunrise was glorious. RIP

Every Ok I’m confused. This was a great chapter but if Karen is Nathan’s sister, who’s the girl constantly all over him? Ginny or something?

After a long long day at work, I found myself all day coming back to our pm conversations Comicality. You had sooo much more to offer and your encouragement and love will never be forgotten…these lyrics just say it right.. 😘😪

My Only Escape spoke to me in ways I never knew possible as it is similar to my experience in a few ways.

RIP Comicality 😔 Reposted edited with a better lyrical version

He was my first discovery on GA and will never be dethroned as the best. I hate it when I’m right. It always costs something. Just last night I was thinking about him and realized we haven’t heard from him in a while. Then this morning I see this post. The impact he made on me in the briefest of interactions was like a meteor. World changing. I will miss him deeply. I am shocked & yet not. He got his Sunrise. Someone please pick up his torch and finish GFD. How I hope he passed on his vision with that story. RIP my friend.

I think Mine knows that if he truly left the twins to their own devices the mischief would be drawing attention to why he wasn’t around and THAT doesn’t need to happen

Ok I really loved how the date went. I love how they showed Robbie and Nathan their sexual attraction to each other and still maintained their control to behave themselves. This is a level of maturity we’ve not yet really seen in Robbie. I think Nathan will be good for Robbie in teaching him to be self confident and help him come out. That said, it’s clear Nathan (who is liked by and large by the Taylor family), Daniel and Nicola will support Robbie against his new parents and help them come around too. Don will be the most difficult sell of course. Something tells me Sue is more open minded than even Don is aware and it won’t take much to win her over

I agree with Skinny and Tim here. A mentally healthy Robbie is precious. I love how he got defensive to that jock tool

I think Nicola might have that angle in the back of her mind but only so she can keep her social status.

I got the feeling that Fran’s brother was trying to get him drunk? What if Fran DIDN’T pass out and took advantage to sketch Robbie nude while she had the opportunity and he doesn’t remember because he was passed out?! If so, I fear that sketch will become public and then things will really get interesting.

I feel Robbie is going to make a mistake being so careless here yet this time, I feel he’ll learn from it more than any other lesson

First off, Robbie has definitely earned his plight he’s made for himself. He doesn’t learn from his mistakes and he doesn’t deserve Nathan. That said, I do not understand why Robbie had to be so hostile to Nicola. Sure she hadn’t made it easy, but come on dude. I think Daniel’s comment at the end that Nathan has a boyfriend is him being speculative but who knows what was said by who at the party at this point. Frankly, if I’m Nathan, I’m not waiting for Robbie. If Robbie keeps it up he’s gonna push away everyone including any smoke’s wisp of a chance at Rory which, is probably his safest and best chance and not completely coming apart. It’s clear Rory cares for him from the interest he’s shown Robbie, especially after that scuffle with Alex and his prior warnings about Alex. Again, Robbie blew it off. Someone needs to tell Robbie off to his face and be brutally honest so this kid gets his shit together because right now, he’s on track to run to Alex and THAT can’t happen. Ironically, I think the person to do it, is and should be Nicola. I think she knows waaaay more than she’s letting on. I think she’s more like her mother than we know. I think she cares for Robbie and we’ve seen glimpses but in a big sister way. The way it should be. The only question is, will Robbie FINALLY listen?

Two words: light weight. Ok now that that’s over with, I agree Robbie’s serious propensity at making poor.. no BAD decisions will eventually come back to haunt him and probably sooner than later. I kinda feel for Fran now. She was right. He has used her & I feel like this is the beginning of a bad times coming for him. Including at home as I think this time will push Sue too far.
