unapologetic - Word of the Day - Wed Apr 8, 2026
Paladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Worse than being unapologetic is being insincerely apologetic or using the non apology wording favoured by PR companies and lawyers. -
Martin agrees with you @VBlew, which is why he has referred Ray to Nathan. I'm sure Simon hopes so. Time will tell where this goes.
-
I love it!
-
Pip has burst on the scene and is making his presence known. He is very challenging.
-
So organised Simon has been developing his magic skills by reading Michael's journal and colour coding it. (Red for fire spells)
-
Yes @Summerabbacat, @Daddydavek and @Flip-Flop, Nathan will continue as an important character in this story.
-
As I've already indicated, more on the Ray and Charlie situation in some future chapters. Martin and Nathan are both going slowly because this is new territory for them. If they continue they will both face the turmoil of accepting their sexuality and coming out.
-
They really didn't know what they were doing. Thanks to his experiences with Simon and Rick, Martin had a few ideas and that was about all.
-
I think all males would cringe at the thought of genitals being painfully damaged as in the barbed wire fence incident. However, as @drsawzall has recounted such things do happen.
-
Thanks @chris191070.
-
@Ticklishboy30. They are not names that are easy to ship. Marthan and Nattin don't work either. Maybe they'll work something out if their relationship develops.
-
It will be a few more chapters before you learn more about Ray and the dynamics of the issue.
-
You are right @Cane23 there is another dynamic at play here,not a lovers' quarrel, but something else.

Lots of thoughts in there @Summerabbacat. I don't think it's a spoiler to say that this is the same Nathan who in the future snuck out of this story to work with Joshua and Daniel. There will be more about Ray and Charlie in future chapters, along with Martin and Nathan and unsuccessful marriages. I'm pleased that your references to blue eyes and music avoided 'Ol' Blue Eyes'.

Simon, Rick and Martin caught a morning flight so they could be checked into the hotel and organized before lunch time. After eating in the lounge at Sydney airport and again on the plane (to please Rick they had flown business) they didn't need lunch so Simon and Martin headed straight to the South Australian (SA) Equal Opportunity Commission. Rick headed for the restaurant to talk to the staff. The meeting at the commission went well. The officer assigned to their case was impressed that

A Family Reunion In Italy pt. 1
Paladin commented on Ticklishboy30's story chapter in A Family Reunion In Italy pt. 1
We are heading into a family mystery. What exactly does Carmine mean by I need to set things right and give them their inheritances? It all sounds good but no one trusts Carmine. So what's going on? Hmm. -
Does that mean there are some things there now that weren't there on April 1! Judicious editing?
-
Yes, it didn't post everywhere on April 1
-
I had the same thought but about both Charlie and Taine. Charlie is about body image and the body he worked hard to develop and loved is now occupied by someone else. He is now working on the body he occupies to make it sexually attractive and who is appreciating that? Yes Ellis is laughing.
-
Maybe immortality comes in different forms. Captain jack suffered injuries that should have killed him but within a minute he was fully recovered and whole.
-
Yes, immortal means recovery from mortal injuries, including those that cause death and obviously the regeneration of severed limbs
-
They are ideal boyfriends, especially with Matt taking care of Simon in ways he doesn't know he needs to be taken care. Simon has more magic than he is aware of. Now how else is he going to use it, wittingly or unwittingly?
-
Mum's making shepherd's pie, At lunch Simon says he's vegetarian. That doesn't seem to have registered with Matt and his mother. I assume the maroon meat eating plant is the anti-vegan.
-
Matt is wonderful. Even after he finds out the the reform school is not a prison but a day school, he can't drop his belief that Simon needs a cake with a file in it.

Dream or parallel universe or other dimension? This world has differences from the world Greg was in before being turned. Also Greg seems to be a stranger in this world. He doesn't know his schedules or having a boyfriend. Have the two Greg's been swapped? If so, I'm dying to find out the other Greg's reaction when he finds himself in Vampire land.
