Good chapter dude, i like the fast resolution, it was a nice touch. I'm still curious as to who attacked Nick but i suppose wel'll find out eventually. I am curious though, if no one notices Fugly people then why do they have a place on the scale lol?

Dude don't make me peck you to death, and not in a good way. i am sorry, I had to watch my kids today so I didn't get home till a few hours ago. I really like the chapter. Though its kind of tragic I think the fact that they've both lost a father figure is actually a good plot point, it gives them a deeper sort of connection. I don't think you shoul worry about being out of character with them, like you said the later chapters are for devlopment, little changes are a good thing. I was wondering if you have any plans to resolve the Emmy plot point you made, if she really knows about the boys or not, just curious. Best, NightOwl

Tim, Bumblebee, you guys are just terrible lol, just...HORRIBLE lol. Althought both ideas have some merit....I'd have to be very careful with the hemlock dosages lol.

Thanks Steve, Meno; for commenting. This is a subject that is reall close to my heart. I am hoping that I will be able to talk to my Aunt soon and maybe visit his grave as well.

Hey yall, Due to circumstances beyond my control it might be a few weeks more than usuall before I can get some chapters out to you, or really fulfill any of my duties or commitments. My Mother has decided to allow her boyfriend (who does pay half of our rent) to let his Daughter, son in law, and their four kids; stay here for a few weeks. These are very ignorant and slightly bigoted people. Due to the fact that they can't be trusted near our laptops (past experiance with porn induced virus') I won't be online very much and will have ZERO privacy while they are here. I promise I will write, edit, and beta as often as possible. I am sorry for this inconvience, no one is more upset about this than I am. Best Wishes, and sorry again, NightOwl

I don't really think it was Chad, the progression would be all wrong. I mean you don't go from attempted rape to innduendo and shy first kisses you know? It doesn't follow the pathology. My bet is on the dude he loaned his notes to. I liked the last two chapters quite a lot, the snippets for SSC were a fun inclusion. I'm looking forward to the goings on between Guys A/B/C and I look forward to what happens between Chad and nick. Ten bucks says Nick freaks out, whose in? Best, NightOwl

I was a fan of Heath too, god rest his soul. Anthony, eh whatever lol. Keith is kind of ambitious lol.

yea you really should be specific dude, it would help quite a bit, and keep from looking like a moron in the process lol. No i don't but I think EVERYONE would enjoy finding out lol.

Hmm, well I'm assuming Shawn and Anthony crush on eachother, as to Keith then no I don't. I am terrible, deal with it lol.

hmmm to which boys are you refering lol? I am a bit conflicted, my sappy side want it to go well but every other side wants it to be terrible lol.

I liked the chapter Young Sage, it was nice. I think Shawn might have the right of it when he mentioned Keith knowing about the two of them. Perhaps he doesn't know everything but he does give off the vibe of having more of a clue than what Anthony gives him credit for, but perhaps not lol. I'm really looking forward to Shawn's home coming, I do hope it's not as terrible as he thinks it will be; but then again it wouldn't be very interesting if it wasn't lol. I'm also quite curious about Shawn's little sister, how she's been doing. Best WIshes, NightOwl

I'm really looking forward to it myself. I agree with several of yall, I hope by splitting it they stay closer to the book as I think they could ahve cut out some of the teenage-angst-melow drama from the last one to keep things more inline with the original story, (not that it wasn't good for what it was),

I have to go with the Forest myself, the idea of living in a big City or something similar isn't an appealing one to me. I've always fantasized about living in a cabin out in the sticks, even if it is an unlikely one lol.

Sorry that it has taken me so long to get here Young Sage, like i said in BSC, things have been hectic here. I liked the most recent chapter, I mean I hated not knowing what was going on exactly but it does male for good reading lol. I don't really have much to offer right now except my desire to know what is going on exactly, I am looking forward to finding it out. You made it seem like Nick told Chad what happened when he first arrived so I look forward to the details. Best, NightOwl

Sorry its taken me so long tog et in here after the last chapter, life took a deepr turn toward the complicated side of life. I liked the most recent chapter, it was lite and pretty enjoyable, i liked the little clue you gave in it as well. Like everyone else I agree with teh sex fantasy, I still don't understand why you doubt your ability to write them. True they may not be as good as real life but in reality the written word is never as good as the action. I look forward to reading more, and I hope we get more face time with Kieth, I get the feeling he is important in some way. best, NightOwl

Hey Nephylim, I'm happy to see you here, I am glad that you loved the chapter, you know how much I love hearing that. I think a lot of folks were waiting for Mrs. Manning to get hers, which is coming. I agree with you, logically Therapy would have been the right think to do but in my opinion it would have been to easy...and WAY too boring. Therapy might play a role later in the story but it won't be the end all be all of Momma Manning's treatment. Zeek really is a fighter, but he picks his battles, and it takes a lot for him to act, Mom walking out on therapy he knew it was pretty much over. Zeek and Jake are a lot like I used to be, I never liked conflict with my parents, while I didn't always agree with what they were saying or doing I hated to argue with them for some reason. I think Zeek was right too about his chalenge, it makes more sense lol. Zeeks Father... I'm not entirely sure what he'll be doing concerning the situation, I suppose we'll find out. I like Lou and Lawrence as well, they are really swell guys, the story needed some characters like them lol. Best Wishes and thanks for stopping in. NightOwl

Hey yall, It's quite a bit later in the day than I planned but I have finally put out Lovers Blind Chapter11. I hope you enjoy it and I appolozie for it taking so long, I was battling with some writters block, but for the time beign that has passed. I hope you guys enjoy this chapter, I really do lol. Lovers Blind CH11

Dude you just totally killed my owl/bird/animal joke, harsh. You think YOU have a violent streak? We REALLY need to talk sometime lol. For future reference I am not obbsessed with porn or sex, and I can say that in complete honesty lol, I swear. I just think SSC has already presented some interesting plot lines and I'm assuming that more will be put out later, just something for you to think about. I don't know how it would work with allowing readers to decide what happened next, you'd have to do it so that you didn't tick off too many readers I suppose. People can be petty, just because you didn't use their idea.

AWESOME I GOT IT RIGHT!!!! That is pretty cool, i never get things like this right, I guess bringing out my logicalness side worked for once. Unlike other Owl I DO have control over my bladder (digs talons into you shoulder) shoo me away NOW!!!! Stakes and holy water won't on me, try silver, that might work lol. I am glad you enjoy talking to me, my wierdness sometimes puts people off lol. I enjoyed the most recent chapter Young Sage, Nick's obbsession with sex and porn is very funny, I think that above anything else gives him a good depth, makes him more real. I kind of hate you for putting in a cliff hanger though, I mean how can you have dude get knocked out and just leave us there, I'm curious as hell to find out who did it. Have you ever considered actually WRITING Shooting Stars Collide as an actual story? I mean not as a story in a story but like after Slash Work is over? It could be interesting. I think Caedus's idea of getting the rest of the team involved could have merit. I admit I'm not for a rape or gang scene but maybe having Guy A (Or B ) enlist a sympathetic team member help with sacking Guy B (or A)? i dunno I just thought i would toss out random advice, it's my way. As always in the end it is your story (Stories?) and I look forward to where you go with it ,(them?). Best, NightOwl

Hey Young Sage, Sorry its taken me so long to get here after the most recent chapter, I've been running up one way and down another. I liked the most recent chapter, it was nice to see Anthony stop waffling back and forth with Shawn and finally do something concrete. I do have a few things to bring up with the characters. To Keith I have a questions, Stripping away all of the macho posturing (as much as you are capable of) what is you're opinion of Shawn? In honesty, I am curious. To Shawn and Anthony, Try not to freak over Emmy possibly knowing that there is something up between you two, if she does then good since she obviously ok with it (she gave you permission to stay together) and if she don't you two acting like dolts will give it away anyway. Good Work, Best Wishes, NightOwl

Aww shucks yall...(blushes) thanks for the wishes. I hope I have as good a day as you all want me to.

Yes actually Owls can get rabies, but I have had all my shots. Thank you Young Sage for defending my wierdness-honor (lands on YS's shoulder and pats his head with my wing), i am Honored lol. Ceadus, in the immortal words of Obi Wan 'If you strike me down I will become more powerful than you can imagine', yeah I paraphrased and NO I HATE Star wars, I just found the quote useful. The only disease I have is Insulin Resistance, which is well controlled lol. I don't know for sure but when I read the title 'Shooting Stars Colide' I can't help but think of 'Black Star Cross'. They both have an S and a C word in them, and the word Star. I could be totally wrong but it would an interesting life parallel, which is what Slash Work is about after all.

*Sits on his tree branch and glares with malice at Ceadus* I DO NOT dress up like an animal, I AM an animal brother. *GROOOOOOOOWL* Those guys are creepy though....I mean I KNEW foklks who got into that...I quickly lost touch with them. So Nick is his name, i need to remember that. *Shooting Stars Collide* That is a curious title, I mean if they were Basketball players it could be clever, football though. I dunno, I'm with Ceadus on wondering.

Good gods that makes SO much sense. I was just joking myself. I've never considered a threesome.

You SERIOUSLY didn't just say that did you lol?
