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

[christie wood]

All the carry on about LS used to bring out my love of a jolly good debate on issues and ideas. But its all gotten way past any of that. Like you, the comments now make me feel physically sick. It has turned into something rotten - to be avoided just as one avoids a stench for the sake of one's good health.

Hi magicmountain

I agree with you, I felt I needed to defend LS when reading such nasty comments that were being posted all over the place, but now I just feel that its best not to get involved in any kind of negative debate, and let them get on with it.  I much prefer having lots of fun and interesting discussions over here, on Louise's lj and at ennisjack.

Btw, Magicmountain, sorry to change the subject, but can I just say that I love your avatar, the quote  underneath it and your signature line!!!  Wonderful.

I think Ennis will have to whip up those silk scarves to restrain Ellery    because the lovin they've got going on now isn't at all good for Ellery's health.....and I do wonder what Ennis will say to Ellery about his health the next time he sees him....


Yup I think a bit of restraint is a bloody good idea...all for the good of his health of course..*ahem* 
What will Ennis say to him when he sees him again? ermmmm welllllllll , maybe he,ll give him a stern telling off and a good seeing to with one of "those" toys like he did before when his back hurt. For the good of his health again of course. *ahem*

I think it is the Worrell thing what's keeping Ellery in pain. The stress of having to call Jack's relatives about it and not knowing for sure how Ennis is going to react at this. On top of it all, Ellery has been rather weak since they returned from Brokeback so this is probably triggering all of his insecurities and fears about his relationship with Ennis.  I don't know, I guess, we'll have to wait for the next chapters to see what happens!

what can I say? I obviously can't EVER fool Natali, so I better stop trying!

But you did! you managed to fool me with Worrell's confession. I couldn't guess the man was lying when he first confessed Jack's crime to Ellery!

[louisev]

okay. So I fooled you ONCE!

One little song for poor Ellery who's ill and in pain alone in his room, while Ennis is away at his daughter's

I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues
Elton John

Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
And never forget I'm your man

Wait on me girl boy
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself


Now I gotta get back to my work

Awww, thanks Natali!

Thanks for that Christie. The quotes are all Louise's work!
