Thanks. I'm having fun with this story!

I love Suess-ian Rhymes. -
I think that if you're seducing a straight buy, you have to keep in mind what you're getting. The visual of you attempting to screw anyone that would hold still is strangely hot and humorous at the same time. I'll bet that same guy would have had a different reaction if approached in a different way. My hypothesis is that I think how the guy is approached is a big determinant in how he reacts, and feels afterward, even if nothing happens. Yep.

I don't think Ryan sees it that way at all. If he did, he'd probably be freaking out.
-
Glad you made it through! There's The Wardroom, Master and Commander, HMS Belvidera, and the current story, which is almost done, St. Vincent.
-
Last time I checked, you weren't a bleached blond, either. First of all, I'm glad you like this story. I'm having fun with it too. Much of what you're talking about should come out later on down the line, so I won't comment about it too much, other than to say I hadn't planned any MJ type blackmail here.

Thanks for coming out of the shadows! I think you just catapulted yourself into one of Jeremy's favorite people with your comment about JJ. I think it's inevitable that he plays a big role in upcoming stories, unless Sharon has her way and he gets hit by the bus. And it backs up and runs over him again. ;-)

You know, it has to be a kind of hard for Will to make a new friend, especially a friend like Ryan, who's smoking hot. There's bound to be some latent sexual tension there, and until it's addressed, one way or the other, it's going to be tough for them to have an easy friendship.
-
I think bringing Will in periodically adds a nice offset to Wade's issues.
-
Thanks! I'm juggling a lot of storylines at this point. ;-)
-
Tim, you captured Ryan's issues really well. It wasn't always about what you wanted to do, it was also about what you felt you could even talk about.

Will's grown up on movies, so he's more jaded than that. Ryan has his own reasons for being a little calmer about it. Jackass: I'll have to remember to work that in. -
Faces for Mark's Stories

I can see this one. You're good at this, Jeremy -
Breathing space, yes, and it's important for the future of the story. Remember, I have a big float trip to write about. I'm with you on Ryan's mom, without the leathery skin. This isn't the east coast. *ducks* Almost inevitable? Silly boy. Then it probably won't happen.

September 22, 2000 Malibu, CA Will “I’ll never figure this shit out,” Grafton groaned as he tried to figure out what the underlying symbolism was to one of the witches’ scenes in Macbeth. “Shakespeare sucks,” I said. I didn’t like his stuff, but I would have said it anyway, because that’s what you were supposed to say. “Bring your books with you. We can work on it tonight. You still coming over?” “You want to do homework on a Friday night? Dude, that’s like the dorkie

I'm glad you kept at it! A tip: Don't get too hung up on the nautical terms. They're there to enhance the story if you get them, but if you don't, just gloss right over them.

Happy Birthday Jack!

I'm not finished with the series, just the story. The next one is already roughed out in my brain. It's probably going to be called "Mutiny."
-
Thanks for the feedback! What I've tried to do with this story is to show a maturing George Granger. Hopefully, if you go back to The Gunroom and then fast forward to now, you can see what a huge change we've seen in George. I expect that to be reflected in his relationships. I've been working on the next few chapters, so hopefully I'll have something else out in the near future. My plan is to have this story finished up some time in January.

I'm glad you're liking the story LEN. I think that Matt is Wade's Achilles heel, but that may not be a bad thing.
-
Thanks! I've actually been working on the next few chapters. Amazing, I know.
-
I think you meant Carl, not Gathan. ;-)Matt's a college junior. He'll wake up in about 18-24 months, or so.

Horses are the first step in domestication? What is this, 1750?

I thought the 12 days of Christmas came BEFORE Christmas? But then again, why would an atheist like me know that. Regardless, no chance of that. I'm not writing that fast. I'll try to post chapter 8 soon though!

We are dealing with Wade. He's not Brad. ;-)
