Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll

I am quite sure that if Jeeves gets Dupree to bed, things will get very hard for him... [looks innocent]

Oh, did you mean "difficult" ...oh, well, yeah, that too....

Ok, ok, going back to work before Angry Boss Man asks why I am giggling hysterically

Heeee! OH God you crack me up! 

*giggles hysterically too*

SPOILER


I have to be honest, I haven't picked up on any attraction between Ennis and Dupree, but perhaps I'e not been very perceptive (or my memory is letting me down again). Ennis may have subconsciously admired Dupree's looks, but I don't for one moment believe that he has entertained any ideas about doing anything about it.

I don't think there's any special feeling from Ennis to Dupree.  But what I'm not sure is Dupree's feeling to Ennis; but as I said, there's every chance that I may be wrong and I'll be happy to be wrong.

June, you are absolutely right about that.  In fact - I'm not even sure it would happen in their dreams.  Okay - maybe it would happen in Wayne's dreams...!

         As far as my dreams go:  ALREADY THERE!!!!!

Hee-hee.  Hey, those dreams might be worthy of an LS AU!AU PWP someday!

I just can't see Ennis ever doing that...unless he had a VERY good reason...and even then I think he would leave Ellery before he did anything.

Hahahah. I darent tell you what "those" dreams were though lol. Anyway, it,s all that Junes fault I had em in the first place lol.

But that could be a great set-up for some real psychologocal drama regarding one's own perception of their sexuality.

If all you wrote is true, then it would be kind of interesting to see Jeremy "think" he is falling in love" with Ennis because of their shared similarities.  The ensuing exploration of what sexuality means to Jeremy could be quite interesting.

Interestingly enough, Scott, this is to me a very realistic possibility.  What is the line between a close friendship, with strong identification between the friends, and attraction?  Sometimes this line is so subtle, it can't be perceived, even when it is crossed, until intimacy unexpectedly occurs.  Isn't this what happened between Ennis and Jack?  It still wouldn't mean Dupree is gay, and I for one - in even attempting this ridiculously complex plot - have to say that I don't think anything is cut and dried.  People just don't neatly fall into piles of queer and straight, and if there is any lesson that comes of Dupree's dilemma - it is this little home truth, illustrated.
