Would I ever like to spend a few minutes inside Pete's head and find out what's going on with him. Of course, that would take away from all the work you've put into totally frustrating me for 12 chapters. I remember thinking to myself, several chapters ago, that this relationship between Corbs and Pete, whichever way it goes, was going to take a while. I believed I was up for it. <sighs>
Don't get me wrong. I'm not going anywhere. The story and the writing are just too good. Maybe I should just pour myself something tropical.
Vancouver is having its usual green Christmas. With rain, of course.
Mind you, there's tons of snow on the nearby mountains, where it's supposed to be! Everyone's happy. Well, not exactly. Rescue teams have had to fetch two out-of-bounds snowboarders over the last few days.
I'm really curious about Pete's background, particularly his upbringing. Being British, the default, I guess, would be the stereotype staid, conservative, largely unloving environment. Will we get any of that at some point? I don't see it as critical, I'm just curious.
Just so you know, the ending knocked me on my ass. Not exactly a great place for Corbin. So it's up to Pete to surprise us all.
The chapter was definitely worth waiting for. Thanks!
I'd like to know why Becca hasn't tossed her husband out on his sorry ass. What a jerk! Living with such a hateful man must be unbearable. And a chauvanist to boot.
So isn't Zune in a pickle. I'm ever so curious how you plan to pull this off!
Kev's a sweetheart!
Great chapter!
Meeting the boyfriend's family, always stressful, but for Alexi, our very own Mr. Anxiety, well, it was rough. Josh's mom helped make it easier for him.
Before we rip Shane away from his mother...need more information there.
I'm hoping Josh will help with Alexi's public appearances issues.
Another great chapter!
I was very impressed with Mike Trout of the California Angels (that's baseball, by the way). He won Rookie of the Year in the Americam League (AL) and was second in voting for the AL's MVP award. The winner there was Miguel Cabrera (Detroit Tigers) who achieved the Triple Crown (best batting average, home runs and runs batted in).
Since these awards were implemented, only 2 players in baseball history have won the Rookie and MVP awards in the same year - both were in the AL. The last player to do that was Ichiro in 1991 while with the Seatle Mariners. The other was Fred Lynn, back in the 70's or 80's. He was with the Boston Red Sox.
Trout is hot, too!
The Fellowship thing is a totally cool idea. Steve's being really supportive. He's seems to be hurting though. I'm curious as to how (or if) you'll resolve this.
Good chapter!
Favourite movie, hands down, is "A Christmas Carol", the one with Alastair Sim.
Too many songs to choose from - so I'll go with the artist, in this case artists, The Vienna Choir Boys. I have one of their cd's; I imagine they have put out several.
According to Cyan, Ryder is a Peacemaker dragon, not a Warrior dragon. It's not clear that Peacemakers come in colours. In fact, there's a lot we don't know as yet. There have only been 2 chapters. The only info we have on Blues is they are hated amongst Warrior dragons and they don't (can't?) mate. It seems that mating is something that is valued by the Warriors.
In regard to Sean's sluttiness, I believe it's a classical case of author misdirection!! You're nasty! Author's are like that sometimes.
Of course, you'll admit nothing!
