Sarah feels secure and very safe. She must have hidden her tracks as an old hand would know what to do. She knows what is going on at the most secure level. “The Prime Minister himself,” Sarah answered. “Like him or not, he respects Carter. He called my office and set me on this the moment it was brought to him. He believes Carter is the only one who can hold the country together after this, and he won't let a fraudulent scandal derail that” Besides feeding the Father's men with intel , she is probably spreading disinformation to misdirect the CSIS plans. Sarah might be lying about the PM's true intentions, Right now she is saying the PM backs Will and is not going to let the Kompromat info to derail him on his path eventually o be the PM. But, is what she saying true? No one can independently verify her views Andrew better keep a great interest in the mole hunt and the people carrying it out. The mole must be a high-level person who had access to a wide range on intel. He should realize the mole could be participating in his war council. Can he explore the PM's views on Will when Andrew next meets him?

What if Steve had already got Lydia to buy the publisher of Blake's books? They would have a way to influence him.

Well....The hike was a physical and mental challenge. It became in the end a turning point for Lyn. Lyn made it to the top and adored the view. Brad needed time to reflect and ask Lyn all his questions. Lyn agreed that Brad was ready to be married and Lyn parried away his personal questions. Brad acted way below his age twisting hard Lyn's nipple and then softly kissed him on the cheek which did not turn Lyn on to him. Lyn realized he was thinking about Alexander. " Even Brad’s touchy-feely habits and the kiss no longer triggered the same impossible longing in his chest. In a way, it was stranger and more unpleasant this way, because that spot his friend had always occupied remained hollow." I am sure their parting after the hike will be pleasant, Lyn has to be ready to honestly answer Alexander's many questions.

So Blake and Jason are going to make love now just like they did when they were teenagers. They are on a wonderful high. Blake is making great money writing trashy books and he has a 5 book deal. Jason knows he no longer will be a pastor, Surprise, surprise--Blake read the backs of the essay and realized the boys were behind businesses in town. Blake will find out all he needs to know by interrogation Kenny, the weak link. He thinks he can finally handle Steve. Blake has not realized the Lydia will fiercely protect the businesses and will be a terrible opponent for him to face.

So Will is isolated in "the nicest cage in Canada." He is being protected and isolated as if the threat is at the highest level. You can expect Lisa will be acting to protect Will from a distance. Will does not know why he is in this elegant place. Is it due to the huge disaster at the compound which has raised the threat level? Andrew was attacked also earlier. Andrew may find out at his upcoming meeting with the PM. Andrew asked West to work with the RCMP handling Will and the boys, He is getting ready for the meeting. The disaster at the compound will be the subject. It could get messy and vocal. Will was recovering from his attack and arrived at the last minute so he cannot be blamed for what happened. Andrew , however, has realized he has a mole. " Then there was the fact that the Community always seemed one step ahead. Andrew’s instincts told him exactly why that would be. Someone in the offices, in the chain of command, was working for Father." He has empowered Internal Affairs to find the leaker for the Father.

Two monumental steps taken Joel decided at the party..."the only way I was going to get over all my fucked-up shit was to dig in and hold on. Not let questions I knew were going to be asked of me to derail my night. People didn’t need to know why I transferred in, or why I was living with the Connelys’. I wondered how many people it would take before I stopped answering. Joel and Davin connected and finally kissed in the dark on the porch at the Connelys. Davin admitted he had a crush on Colt till he was 10. After kissing Joel much earlier, he could not stop thinking of Joel. Joel forcefully asked Davin what he was going do now after the time has passed, Davin reacted and kissed Joel. Wonderfully Joel then kissed him back. I hope they are both very pleased.

I am so happy for Claire. She stood up to Jack's mother who dominated him. Claire will carry out the celebration of life that Jack wanted even though Patricia Hobert opposed what her son wanted. Will asked Claire after she kicked Kack's mother out of Escorial.... “You seem happy. I’m surprised.” “I am free; I have no restrictions,” Claire said. “That’s what that entire conversation with Pat was about. Today, this day, is my independence day. And I am never going back there.”

I have three Starbucks a little over a mile from where I live. The newest one just opened and features a drive through which has become popular in other Starbucks after Covid. The lines can be long, but the cars can be sent through fast. I can get a variety of food choices starting with breakfast items

So is Starbucks the great foreign Satan and not popular to most Canadians?

It is a $1.5 million dollar empire! The operators seem uncommonly honest--Just the lawyers are cheats who Lydia will bring in line. Kenny found the issues and they are minor. Steve is the creative free spirit, Who knows if his new chess game will pay off? Is this like business empire like the bumblebee. It should not be able to fly, but somehow it does?

Dsamn--A heavy set mam Briser, took pics of the kids and will and made sure the pics were sent electronically to someone. Then Bruiser turned to intimidation. He scare Tommy and Jacb at the hockey rink, Will arrived and sent the kids away and stood up to the Bruiser. He brutally hit Will several times and Will still came back. He was overmatched but not dissuaded Luckily Will's RCMP guards arrived and arrested Bruiser. Can they find out why the man terrorized the kids and beat up Will. Is his camera available and can they see what pics he took? What is going on? Why is Will being intimidated. Is this in any way tied to the Ed Rawlins mess and seen as a way to create publicity for the false charges? This was a crude. risky failure unless there is something else going on.

It is so hard to see Richter accept a submissive role and enjoy pain at this period in training. He uses a safe word when he thinks things go too far, but he continues in this role. Kotetsu dominated and ruled him at times. Ather joined in their play. Richter though..."By now, my thoroughly overwhelmed brain couldn't piece together how things had escalated to this point. But one thing I was certain of--I would never forget this night. It was the night we explored uncharted territory together and uncovered new truths about each other."

Andrew received the scary personal information on Will from Sarah, from the political threats department. He was not to be notified but she thought he needed to see it in an unofficial way. Did she tell him so he might mishandle the mess and be too protective of Andrew and tell him about the threat without all the story. As a consequence, Will would look guilty and not shocked when confronted horrible charges of abandoning his son by the press? Andrew's ability to find out more about the charges in a speedy way might be discounted. What is going to turn Will onto checking out Sarah? If he figures out Sarah is dirty, he might not arrest her but feed her incorrect information to mislead Father.

If the leak is not in the CSIS, I would place my bets on the PM's aide Jean who is somewhat connected to Father and has the dirty story intended to ruin Will. Now, how is Andrew going to be led to Jean as the leaker? Can he use the CSIS spy in the PM's office?

Things are working together nicely and non-dramatically. Blake turned his unease into contrasting student pairings on the meaning of 12th Night. Steve and Kenny are adorable. They are very proud of their jointly written essay. The are fitting into a comfortable pattern accepting their differences. Maybe someday soon they might engage in sexual activities.

Andreuz is fleeing with his son Josel. His wife and Josel's mother, Mocvann, has poisoned the Ducal family at dinner. A scapegoat is taking the blame. The killer is pure evil and will not stop killing. "Mocvann Gravenhild is not who she pretends to be. We have to flee. Immediately" Andreuz wisely is looking ahead.

An insider--a leaker? You have identified a key question thar needs to be answered. Andrew at CSIS HQ must look behind what is happening as the fighting commences again and ask why it has happened. He can observe the fighting now by the Army and has time to focus on CSIS counterintelligence. Andrew should realize he has a leaker that aided those in the compound to be ready for an attack with just RCMP and related forces. He should be flexible and not just seek one person or outlet. BTW, Will has not told him President Trump seemed to know what must be CSIS secrets.

OMG--What a disaster ! The intel on the enemy was very wrong, The RCMP assault teams were surprised and outmatched. The fire from the compound was merciless and from unexpected more powerful weapons. Landmines were laid. Explosives were placed. The government forces were outmatched and in terrible shape. Andrew arrived at CSIS HQ, He assessed the battle and outcomes to date. He ordered the attacking forces to retire. No further deaths were going to happen to these RCMP people. Andrew calmy acted and gave the staff renewed confidence. The Army is 10 minutes away. The Army with their heavy weapons and combat training with begin a new assault on the compound. Later, this battle when completed will face a serious assessment. Are fall guys going to be found to take the blame?

Your Falcon Banner stories captured my attention and respect. It was so detailed and full of great characters and surprises. I am looking forward to your refreshed and made new tale

Interesting start. Lots of potential. Good Luck !

No worries--You have distinctive tastes. Most people cringe at seeing fruitcake. Some must love it because I see lots of fruitcake options offered around Christmas time. But, as for banana bread, you hit the spot. I love it with walnuts added to the batter. I make it using a stellar recipe I found on the Food Network-- cable TV network. I slice it and apply whipped cream cheese to it. I also give my banana bread away as gifts to friends at Christmas time.

'The Last High Guard of Taïr' is this a sci-fi story? I really like you past sci-fi stories. I am hopeful and looking forward to this new story.

This chapter was endlessly fun to read. You even turned tough situations into grounds for humor. I do find Steve's tastes odd. Who really likes fruitcake? Lydia continues to show her business genius with her skill at using peoples' talents--like Steve's creativity and the new Kenny logistic compulsions. You revealed that the new trio wanted to help and employ others and buy their parents homes and not act like cruel overlords. Are the legal, very eager for money Patels the one that handled and kept private the Rawlins adoption? Is there any possibility Will or West could be helped out?

So, West needs to ask Jared what he knows about Jenny. She had to talk later to Will to seal her hoped for tie and way out of the town. What did Jenny do next? If she did not make a claim to Will, did Jared know what happened to her? Did Jenny try to trap another guy if Will did not have sex with her? Did Will later become known as gay and Jenny realized he was not going to be her husband?

So you thought this vagina could cure and turn a gay man straight. "...If you suck a cock you go to hell. Let the vagina be your saving grace..." This proposition is doomed to fail and you finally knew it.
