Speaking as a schoolboy or school chef?!

I don't know much about American football, but this table war sounds like it! What's with Devin?! Grandmother's birthday party?!? C'mon...

I can feel it too! The whole chapter is like overture to shitstorm!

Kieran has to admit that he was a rather shitty brother...as he was shitty mate and shitty prince... So, he got a second chance, why wouldn't Desmond get one. Seems that Kieran is ready to save all possessed soldiers except his own brother! He still has to learn the value of family...

I'm late to the party...and what do I see...my fellow readers already organize Pride at Philpott Towers! 😁🏳️‍🌈

Mutiny without me?! No way!!!

I have filling that this has been very clumsy organized hearing. As they gathered to discuss school gossip... Even without basic information about student... I mean, wtf: “Is one of his parents not available tonight? We usually require a parent to be present, not a relative,” Seems this hearing was forced by Vasilios' as a witch-hunt! Luckily, the outcome was positive for Jonah. As for the stalking... Kildare and Will in the car, then Jonah and Cal on the tree...scene from a teenage comedy! 😁 Nevertheless, I'm not sure their discovery is so essential. Victor is cheating his girlfriend - big deal... I've expected something juicier!

I guess I'm surprised as much as Brandon...really didn't expect Tyler to be first to bottom, but I like it! 😉Actually, I'm astonished they went as far to have golden showers in first sex...but it's Brandon, nothing to be shocked about! Now he's gonna be addicted to cock! Oops

These are just rich, spoiled, teenagers. The biggest punishment for them is allowance cut, and public humiliation followed by loss of popularity! Though, Victor shows some symptoms of sociopathy... He can be very dangerous!

Very delicate situation. I don't know how these board hearings work, but Jonah and his friends have to make a good strategy. He cannot lie, but also, he cannot snitch his friends. There is also a matter of secret filming and sharing video on social medias... 🤔

Now I want to hear your first thoughts on the city clairvoyant...

The Hollow Hills has been one of the first stories I read at GA site. At the same time, it was one of the first stories I've been reading that deals with heavy topics as rape and mental issues. I was shocked and positively surprised that GA authors are not writing only about love, romance and sex. Of course I like all of that, crowned with HEA, but life is so much more - life is good and bad, happiness and sadness, ups and downs... In a story of Galen and Joshua, settled on a beautiful horse farm, @Valkyrie is telling us that life is not always road of roses, there are many thorns along the road too.

Eli and Isaac were inseparable brothers. Instead of being happy and supportive of such sibling's' bound, parents did everything possible to break this brotherhood, sending, eventually, Eli far from home. Many years later, Isaac is searching for his brother. Happiness of reunion is soon going to be overshadow by shock of knowledge what happened all those years ago in their family home! Another little masterpiece from @Valkyrie, another must-read short story!

@Valkyrie brings this amazing short story, giving us a different perspective on very serious matter of child abuse accusation! What if alleged child abuse is actually law abuse? What if crime investigation becomes a witch-hunt? How to live with stigma which cannot be erased even when evidence is clear and accused is, actually a victim? Finding himself at the bottom, abandoned by everyone, Patrick is going to learn who are real friends in need and how rare they are!

Not at all... I'm aware that every ecosystem has its own value, my opinion is just esthetical (superficial, I know)! 🙂

Speaking of English countryside, I have always imagined some beautiful meadows or some landscape as Lake District! I apologize to locals, but this doesn't impress me much!

Only if they organize disco party in the house! Actually, on that ancient stereo I would like to listen only classics!

I like the idea of making this monstrous house as some sort of cultural center for concerts, exhibitions, promotions etc. Graham's carrier might be transferring what was part of his not so bright childhood, into something that could be very bright legacy - The Philpott Towers Heritage!

I wouldn't mind Led Zeppelin...or The Beatles at least!

Agree! I really do hope this program will work in story because I'm not sure it would be very successful in reality!

Sounds like Louis XIV's court!

In a way, I can see stinky rebellion as Brandon's way of confrontation with his parents. His way of keeping them on the distance. Brandon's smell symbolically exposes the rotten relationships in his family. It can be expected from highly intelligent artist as Brandon to show some excentric behavior, even if it is gross occasionally! 😜

Good that guys ended up in Tyler's bed for a change. I was afraid they will end up at dermatologist with some skin disease if they continue lying in Brandon's sheets!

Neil is childish with his overprotectiveness! I can understand that having mother going on dates, especially with his high school assistant principal, might be 'too much' for a teenage boy but I hope he'll get over it. After all he's been gone through, Neil should learn to be more accepting and not to endanger his relationship with his mother or her happiness with another man. Anyway, overprotectiveness might be headline of this chapter. Alex might take care of his brother, but it is not up to him to out Gerry or tell Gerry's story (even when with good intentions). Sammy has shown much more awareness of this delicate topics refusing to out Neil in front of Gerry! Now, @Ronyx left us waiting to see is Alex going to be fast enough to prevent Gerry and Sammy being hurt!
