Aaron needs to be honest with himself, but when it comes to Nathaniel, not sure he is capable of that. Sade is interesting, but aware.

Aaron could have a nervous breakdown. Austin could suffer a fatal accident. Which will happen first.

Nathaniel sparks something that Aaron did not even realize he was missing. Kyle is the jock ass that gets the laugh not because they are funny but because not to draws negative attention to you.

Nathaniel seems to be barely surviving, caring for his mother and trying to survive high school, which can be deadly in and of itself.

Never sure about stories that start in the present and look back. Are you seeing reality, or what the person wishes had happened.

I just knew with it being 4/20, we would get a posting... I hate when someone like Finn turns bitter and does something like this. It truly gives everyone a bad name, especially when it is so obvious that it is all a lie. Finn doing this will turn him into a pariah at Harvard, would not be shocked at all if he ends up transferring out, his life withing the GLBT community will be hell. I think Jeremy's idea would have worked, at least enough to have calmed the waters except for the Star article. But now the big guns have come into play and things are going to get very uncomfortable for some people. The new article for Mode will help until the next time that Will does something without realizing it and blows up again, someone with his looks and natural charisma is never going to stay under the radar fully. Fabulous chapter.

And they were... Oustanding.

The Old Ones, Mother Nature, or just the universe itself yells out to us; but far too often we are deaf to what they warnings are. Wonderful.

Truly lovely, and speaks to those quiet moments that are often the true test.

You never know how much you or anyone else can take before you or they snap and do something that you can never take back. Powerful and sad...

All were truly lovely; but the first one touched something deep in my memory and made me think of long-ago days with a touch of nostalgia and fondness.

This was just flat out frigging brilliant.

Enjoyed all three poems, but the second was really resonated with me.

Truly another wonder addition to the world of @Robert Hugill that he has created for us. With the exception of one of two minor characters these are all new to us; but it doesn't take but a moment to find the charming, maddening, or downright detestable. But we can't wait to see what they do next. As always, the writing is first rate, and the flow to the story is damn near perfect. We have romance, shady past, coming out, new loves, and a mystery and some delightful police officers to keep us on our toes. Pull up a rocker, a lovely tea, perhaps a scone or two; and enjoy this story like you have all his others.

Like all those that find themselves dealing with illegal substances; the seller knows that others will be after him for one reason or another, and as such, they will have many exits to escape or leave by. While Sam found the drug, and at least one person that is selling it; there is still much to discover. Sam must make sure they believe he is using the gryphon ash, but must never really do so, the danger would be too great. The troubles that Sam has faced in the recent past would make him very susceptible to the drug's effects I am afraid.

A truly wonderful story, highly recommended.

A truly delightful story from start to finish. We had romance, crime, coming out, art, police, and so much more. The characters truly made this story. All of them, even the secondary ones were so well done, we loved or hated or was glad of a run over on all of them. The story flowed perfectly and as always, the writing was first rate. I could actually see a follow up with our intrepid CID trio that somehow involves or comes to involve the group at the commune. A million thanks.

Loved this chapter, so nice to catch up with old friends. So, we finally got to officially meet Trinity de la Creme, aka Patrick. Perhaps a trip back home might be worth it just to see what has changed. Always love how people go to someplace like Sydney and realize that there truly is a world of opportunity out there, if you want to seek it out. Family often is who you make it, whether that includes blood ties or not. And @Mark Ponyboy Peters, I clicked it and I liked it... LOL

Austin, Texas area anywhere from 3.59 to 3.79 a gallon, but diesel is over 5.00 a gallon. Thanks as always for the look back at the week. Have to try and get through the latest postings of the poetry today. Hope everyone has a great week.

Once again, Kaylen, Ronan, and Tomas ride into danger. They do so because their honor demands it and their country needs it. The foreign prince finds that while he was gone, the Marshall has struck first; but is this the start of a fatal blow, or the last stand of those that wish England to remain under their own rule? Kaylen is noble in his ways and actions. He does not take life easily, but understands when it must be done. So much ride on the next few months, who will prevail?

I just knew that the artefact was going to be some place totally mundane, and what could be more mundane than the back of an old lady's closet. I just truly love how this group has come together and grown and expanded. They make such an interesting chosen family. And I am so happy that Ian has started to come out of his shell more and more and that the group has been there and will continue to be there for him. I will be so sad to see this one go.

Some good vibrations going your way...

OMG, a contrite, honest, and forthcoming Jeremy, is @sat8997, is Sharon still alive? So proud of Jeremy for admitting that he was wrong and what part of the issue was and is; did this fix everything, maybe, maybe not; but at least he and Will are back on an even keel. I do think Jeremy is right, his idea is just what Will needs to do; is this going to fix everything? Maybe, but if not, Brad, JP, and Stef will have to get involved and those are some big guns to bring to bear. Am I the only one that finds Austin a little annoying? I can't quite put my finger on it; but his I want you, but I must keep myself pure for Troy; is getting a little bit old for me. Will handled the interviews like a pro.

So happy, this second batch is released. I work thirteen hours today and the next two, so it will be Sunday before I have time and the headspace to read this group, hope they are as good as the first grouping was.

This was a wonderful gift by Mistress Carolyn, even if neither Frank nor Sawyer fully understand it. Sawyer will be back in connection with Dante, Henry, and Tom. And with his prodding, perhaps Dante and Frank will have an actual conversation, not a screaming match. I am sooooo Happy...
