I'm sure that Will is wondering that same thing, and I'm sure he's pretty pissed off about it.
-
You crack me up. LOL.
-
Thanks Terry. Only three people on the plane, even though the manifest originally showed four.
-
So I give you what you want, and you still bitch? Sigh. The pilots count, so that brings the body count to three. Maybe JP knows that beans and hot sauce from California are so much better, that there's no need to import them from Texas. SMILE

I think Buzz had a unique take on sex, and didn't let age overly influence him. That's problematic, but as far as Will goes, it's not like he was plowing new ground.
-
Well, the cliffhanger could have been way worse. ;-) There are more than two chapters, but there are only two more deaths scheduled for this story.
-
Yeah, I figured that as much as I've kept you guys hanging over the past few months, that kind of cliffhanger would have been just nasty.

Black Widow- Music Recommendations

Besides, I gave Jeremy permission to go nostalgic if it fits the mood. I mean, younger people will still listen to older songs if they're good. -
August 20, 2003 Escorial, CA Will “Good evening,” Grand said smoothly, as he strolled into the dining room. We all replied to his greeting. “Tomorrow is your first day at Menlo, is it not?” Stef asked Ryan. “It is,” Ryan said. He was still just a little nervous at these dinners, and he was even more nervous about his first day at Menlo. “We’ll be seniors,” I said to him, smiling broadly, trying to prop him up. “Now that should be fun,” Buzz said.

California Culture: Circa 2000

f**k nugget First time I've heard that one. -
Black Widow (Story Discussion)
Mark Arbour replied to Mark Arbour's topic in Mark Arbour Fan Club's Topics
That's true, but it really was largely restricted to the academic community, despite a few interlopers. :-) -
And you make a good point. I think his cavalier disregard for family connections as he does elevate it a bit on the turpitude scale.
-
Thanks for the review. There are all these figures we've met, and some of them reappear, others not so much. Seems it's time for the Carmichaels tho show up again. Something to keep in mind is that Stef has very astute business intincts, but his personal instincts are less well-honed. So far, from a business standpoint, Buzz has done a good job. It would appear that his personal life has some pretty big problems.
-
It's possible your nose is out of whack. You'll know in a week. :-)
-
Thanks for your kind words. I think that the funniest thing about the deal with JJ is that Maddy totally played him in the same way he must have played Will and Darius. But it's one thing to tell a kid to chill out, it's another to actually grab the kid. JJ crossed the line, and Maddy called him on it. He was out-bratted. I actually think that Darius does a nice job of handling JJ. He provides a good counter-balance to Will, who probably puts up with more of JJ's bitchiness than he should. I think having Darius around kind of forces JJ to moderate his moodiness a bit, and it's probably been that way since they were little kids.
-
Thanks for your post. I actually have been working in fits and starts on the next Valiant chapter. I've got a stream of CAP lines to write, but I'll get back to it. I promise.
-
You're assuming that Buzz has only had sex with JJ, Brad, and Will. :-)
-
Good to hear from you, Jason. Drama? Moi? Honey, just wait until the next chapter.
-
I can totally see why JJ did what he did. He got a self-inflicted ego blow since he can't suck a dick as well as he'd like, and then he got out-drama-queened by Maddy, beat at his own game. It seems to me that in that situation, you'd be inclined to run for a safe place, and in this situation, Alex probably gave him that.
-
I think that's a pretty astute observation about JJ, Will, and Brad. If this whole deal comes out, Will and Brad will probably be able to just dust it off, but JJ is so high-strung, he may not take it so well.
-
More please? Next Thursday. :-)
-
Now come on, I've created way worse characters than Buzz, but I can see your point. If Buzz is cast as "a good guy", he definitely would be problematic. Although maybe he's not a good guy.
-
Zach is just an 18 year old guy who is living part of his dream. I can see him stoked that things are finally going right for him. That it dooms his future with Will, at least as partners, probably isn't even registering in his brain. I'll bet it's registering in Will's.
-
Thanks. You know, even on hiatus, I thought a lot about the story direction, so I'm glad that shows.
