Robert is remarkably unperturbed about learning his nocturnal conversation was with the spirit of a lad dead for more than a century.

A fellow Brit makes for easier communication. I'm wondering if Robert makes more sense of things after he is rested?

Calling Jake was exactly the right action. Getting out of there and heading to Escorial was also smart. Travis has made some enemies in the past and now I'm wondering if the "stalker" is getting paid?

I'm hoping the muddy young man cleans up well for his next visit.

The title and the reference to a ghostly presence pricked my interest.

This has been a favorite of mine since the 1950's!

Or maybe stewing? The chapter built, simmering with details, but it all came together thanks to Travis, Wade and Fab making a delightful stew! Thanks for sharing and more please!

He doth protest too much....

Thanks for sharing! And looking forward to your wise guys story!

Caroline is the definition of a designing woman, so implicitly she is plotting her return to society. George has contacts which prove to be mutually beneficial. A replenished wine cellar for him and his friends is a win-win. Cornwallis validates George's low opinion. The Nordic captain demonstrated his competence aboard ship. Talleyrand reminds that he is a force with which to be reckoned. I enjoyed this Thanksgiving treat!

Brad and Jake are much better at communicating and listening than Robbie was. Stef is a bit obtuse about Brad's reaction and feelings about the assault. Will has Thor and Schaef pegged and I agree it would be wise to not bed Thor.

Will and Travis running lines productively and processing their mostly remote relationship makes me hopeful they can weather the ups and downs. Filling Fab in on his dad's relations with the family cements an ongoing relationship. Wade and Matt got their moment too. WOO HOO! Also sorry to hear of the recent bout of covid. More please....and more George too!

Will and Travis are talking and coping so far, but four years in the CAP universe can be a lifetime. Fab is connected through the father he never knew and is probably the better for it. Wade and Matt were starting to appear as an old married couple, but a taste for a shared romp says otherwise. Loved the chapter, and looking forward to more.

St. Louis has Costco regular gas at $2.44. In my area, $2.68 is the prevailing rate.
