Robert must be more tired and out of it then he realized if he didn't notice more about this than he did. I bet old man Latouche may speak more English than his wife might suspect. This was a little sad, Alfie obviously died in the war, have to wonder if Patrick did? This is just wonderful.

Loved this chapter from start to finish, and all of it in between. So glad the launch went well for Nolan and Verne, and really glad the twins showed up in the film. I do hope this goes well, personal training is something that works wonders for some, that personal one on one time is what some people really need. Sounds like the Ralph and Therese are getting along better, the school function went well. And with the twins in the area, no way to discuss anything untold. I do hope this stays on an even keel. The photo shot was a hoot from start to finish. I do understand Ivor, had a friend by me a pair of undies, and actually had to find a video trying to figure out exactly how to wear them properly. The dinner after the shoot was a perfect ending to this chapter. This group seems to be meshing in unexpected ways. If we could throw in Gordon and Brian, it would have been even better, but of course, we do have their upcoming outing at Gordon's parents to look forward to. And I do hope that Ralph sends his parents copy of the pick.

A lot going on in this chapter. Miss Britney is a bitch. If nothing else, taking the man that truly cared for her daughter away from her like that says more about here than almost anything she has done. Flynn seems to have some interesting ideas for how a slave relates to his Mistress and how slaves relate to each other. Is that just how he was trained, or does he truly embrace those ideas? Dante didn't go out of his way to be nice or mean to Flynn, he was more just indifferent. I guess he could have tried to help him some more, but honestly Flynn's attitude would have set me on my ear as well. Tom being free and now a slave explains so much...

Chips and gravy are delicious, and there are several variations, can't say that I have had any in Australia, but Canada has several variations depending on the region. Grayson has to come to terms with what happened, the issue is can he do that on his own. I am glad that he took the pictures, that was smart thinking. Something like this can truly devastate someone that age, male or female. The physical assault was bad enough, but the fact that Mike really did betray his trust makes it so much worse. Grayson is going to have several decisions to make, let's hope he makes the right ones.

Well, an interesting first encounter on both the part of the couple that is renting the room, and the one with our unknown specter. Highly anticipating the next chapter, can't wait.

Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.

This is really scary. You cannot ever know what will set someone off, or why they can become obsessed about one person. But even then, doesn't it seem a little strange that this guy connects with Travis at a club and after one mediocre sexual experience is just going gung-ho over Travis? That just sees a little much, even for a psycho stalker. That said, how do you take someone to your place and don't ask a name. I understand discreet encounters, but if you invite someone into your home, how do you not at least ask a name, sure they may lie, but still. Will is right, this guy seems to be trying to get Travis to pursue him, why? Could he really be trying to hurt Travis, or set a trap and kidnap him? Does he know who Travis is and is after him for money? If so, is it a lone psycho or is there someone behind him planning? Jake is right, get out of town for the weekend, get away from anywhere this guy could get to, even if he can afford to travel cross country, just try and get into Escorial without approval. This was a wild ride of a chapter.

Some people will not believe, even their eyes. They have to have proof in a way that only cold hard numbers can produce, and there are things in this world that just can't be reduced to that.

Loved this chapter. I truly hate people that push their religion on anyone else. And I will bet the parents of the bible quoting kid cherry pick what they believe and what they preach to their child and others. Few of the so-called Christians in the US currently even barely understand the basic premise of the Bible, and almost none truly follow its teachings. So that how Ludo and Arthur handled the situation with the boys and sounds like Damian and Adam both had already put up with quite a bit. Glad that Ludo and Arthur were able to go out on a date, but more impressed and happier that they were able to talk so openly and frankly about their past and their future.

Wonderful start, can't wait to see where you take this one.

Honestly, Emmett is really starting to piss me off. His holier than thou attitude is getting really old. I will just about bet any amount of money that Finley and Steven are kin in some way.

Animal lived up to his name, but really blame Mike, he had to know what was going to happen and although he went rather gentle; he had to know that Animal would not do so. He either needed to better prepare Grayson better or should have explained to him what was going to happen in more details. Grayson probably would not have joined them together, but Mike would have had a shot at Grayson alone and maybe after a few times, Grayson would have handled Animal better. Plus, they definitely should have respected the fact that Grayson had brought the condoms, that he wanted them to use them was implied and that they did not is what makes it worse to me.

Some of my favorite stories on this list, and some that I need to add to my to do list.

An interesting slice of life, a typical day in the life of this household. Remy seems balanced, nice to see. Like the glimpses of what is going on around the area.

Sounds intriguing, will have to add it to my list and give it a start when I can.

Ralph and Ivor in all their near glory and then displayed up on the walls for all to see. Then off to dinner with Morrie, Beth, and their significant others. What an adventure there is ahead. Therese comes through, knew the perfect office space, and it is transitional. Perhaps on a short to midterm lease but give them plenty of time to find just the right place. Therese has really been more benign than I thought she was going to be in the beginning. Think it is nice that Nolan's parents want to meet Ralph. And love that they are getting to know more about each other; they did skip quite a few of the steps in their relationship with each other.

Grayson seems to be plunging head long into new experiences. Chris would be a more appropriate playmate for him to explore with, but I think Mike and Animal may have something to say about that. Just hope that Grayson doesn't get in over his head.

Well, Peter has decided on a completely different tack than his father or brother, he is just laying it all out there. And a look at what makes his life worth living in the future...

As The Gay Turns... This was so cute. Emmett freaked and then immediately realized he should not have, and the fact that he can't explain why without reveling more than he wants obviously bothers him. Finley just wants to protect Emmett and although he did nothing wrong, he doesn't yet realize this. Patricia is a hoot. Let's hope the follow up goes more smoothly, but somehow, I doubt it.

or a more unconventinal choice might be...

Beautiful, and I truly hope that this works for all involved.

And we began to meet the characters in our new story. Already some interesting things going on, and you can see some drama coming down the road.

A story begun in death and chaos.

Interesting start to the new story, can't wait to see where this one goes.

Dante was punished for something he did not do; but worse Frank was punished for trying to do the right thing. I like Alice, but not sure how far she will go to really save Dante. Frank may really be entering puberty mentally and emotionally, as @Danners stated and that may bring a whole other group of questions and concerns. I am going to take Tom at face value. While I would not fully trust him, I do think he cares for Frank, and I don't think he like him being punished.
