“GUYS, CAN I SAY SOMETHING?” April had sneaked up on them along with Easter and Addison’s driver’s license. The sun even penetrated the cafeteria through the long ground level windows. Usually it was just fluorescent light in here, but now they could see the verdant evergreen bushes, the pea green leaves coming out on the trees. Sully was speaking

to dynamaso: good to hear from you. I actually do know how Sully will take it, since it's already been written. My lips are zipped,I can;t say a word about it.
To Dr. Guy: I imagine TWO things.One, you may not remember your First Communionbecause it went well,andsmooth running thingsare not that memorable for children.Mine, however, was a disaster and a disappointment, so i remember it well.. Secondly: i suspect the reason we don't know more about what is going on in Seth Mc.Kenna;s head is because he himself doesnot know. He's not really an overly reflective person, at least not now, and as a write
“No,” Sully said. “I don’t. I’m gay, and you’re gay—” “Don’t say that,” Chris was flustered. “It’s... Look, I’m going to college in a few months, and you’re going to be a senior and we have to move on. I’ve been hearing that a lot of people fall into this at this time of life. You have to understand that—” “You’re nuts.” ‘No, I’m not.” “I
Mason is my little protagonist whom i would like to be more like. balliol is who i think i really am. Sully... ah, Sully....
They had been going to the optional school mass for about a week. Every few weeks there was a school mass that all the kids had to attend, but there were also optional masses in the chapel, around lunchtimes, twice a week. Father Sanders was the priest there. Chris had never gone, though he’d been thinking about it. He knew his dad went to Mass during the week someti
i think life is a series of people attempting to make us play games because they are playing them too, and that a really grown up life, the one i hope my boys here are pursuing, is a constant rejectiong of these offers and oftentimes these not so subtle threats to PLAY BY SOMEONE ELSE'S RULES..
i thought their exchange should be at least semi disturbing because Black history, which after all is just a part of American history is a disturbing thing that often no one really wishes to confront be they Black or other.
“HOW LONG DO YOU THINK until it happens?” Mark said. Rick’s forehead was pressed against Mark and he murmured under the comforter, “Until what happens?” “Until they know. Until people know. Until...” Mark Powers pushed himself up from the warmth of the bed with its thick comforter, with Rick Howard’s heat. He sat up in Rick’s room and looked down
Thank you! We forget respect so often. God is God. We all stumble around finding him, but at least we need to just sit down and let him (terrible pronoun) come to us as he chooses, as we can receive him. why do we think we all have to receive God the same way?
The next chapter will be lots of life, nestled in little bags! L'Cheym!
The next chapter will be lots of life, nestled in little bags! L'Cheym!
i think they are connecting because they are both strong people dressed as misanthropic bitches, and it takes a serious event like this to bring two such serious people together. at least this is how it seems to me. but i would have to ask them.
the conclusion to this chapter. no there is more to explore.
“It’s been a long time since it’s been just you and me,” Addison said that night in Mason’s room. “No Tommy. No Seth, no Balliol—who’s great by the way—but just us.” “Whaddo you think of Sullivan?” “That’s random,” Addison said. “Not that much, really. He’s okay. I suppose. But... He’ll never be with the four of us. “There are four of us?” <BR
I really do love Matthew. He sort of snuck up on me and he is one my favorites.
“You look preoccupied,” Sully said. “Well that’s not a bad word for it,” Balliol told him. “Preoccupied is, in fact, a very good word for it. Would you believe for one of the first times in my life I can’t think straight? I’ve thought of being a Hilton and when school’s all over just throwing up my hands and saying fuck it, spending lots of money, doing crazy th
to dynamaso mainly: i think we all know what it is like to look and to find someone like you and the thing about Balliol and Mason is not only their blackness but the way they feel about it in a predominately white world.
mainly to dr. guy 1. yes i am Catholic and i shunned the priesthood to live in a monastery, but i have a lot of experience with priests. yes. absolutely true. the priest here is based on a real one. 2. even though Balliol is younger, i think being a minority and a minority within a minority, and being an heir to a legacy may have grown him up quicker. he did go to boarding school for a time and he has had to grow up not being popular
“I don’t want to talk about it.” “It was about me,” Matt said, sipping the last of his juice box. “He didn’t start it,” Sully felt the need to defend his friend. “He just made a comment.” “One of you better tell me,” Matt said. Sully sighed. He looked at Chris. Chris made a motion and Sully said, “I just... He asked what was wrong with you? He not
Yup... i think you will. But let's give a big hello to Matt becoming a major character!
Chris is becoming fully human. I think you can't become without entering crises.
The first woe has passed… But there are two more to come. —Revelation 9.12 “I’M FEELING BETTER NOW,” Matt said, sitting up in the hospital bed and immediately crying out. “Yeah, you sound better,” Sully remarked. Matt Mercurio t
MASON DARROW- crazy, sometimes seemingly vain and bewildered by the world around him, he is the steady center who holds his best friends together. ADDISON CROMPTLEY and THOMAS DWYER- Mason’s best friends since childhood. They all attend Saint Vitus Men’s College Preparatory High School LINCOLN BALLIOL- their schoolmate and heir to the
I thank you all for reading and am glad you... "enjoyed it" sounds like the wrong phrase. Now you see why it was such an "ill fitting chapter."
