Yep, this is fun!   :D


--- Quote from: Snavel del Snuit on July 06, 2007, 05:30:20 pm --- .... but after the whole shipyard deal, there really was no way they could go back to being best friends only. .

Nope, no going back now. They definitely reached a point of no return at the shipyard. 


--- Quote from: Snavel del Snuit on July 06, 2007, 05:30:20 pm ---I keep thinking Bobby's reaction will be the most mellow, because he's always felt different than other people and misunderstood.

What a great insight, Mel.  That is so true.  And what about Bobby and his relationship with "AJ"? From the conversations Bobby had with Jack and Ennis had with Junior they seem to be pretty tight.  In fact, they seem to be whole lot closer than both sets of parents realized.  I can't help but believe that will be a factor, but I'm not sure how. 


--- Quote from: Snavel del Snuit on July 06, 2007, 05:30:20 pm ---Oh yes, how did their night at the shipyard end? I wonder about that too! I was hoping the chapter was gonna start with that, to be honest, but I knew it wasn't going to... We have to fill it in ourselves I guess... No problem!  :laugh: I think they might have been pretty quiet, kept on kissing for a while as Jack returned the favor (ha!) and then started getting cold and walk back to the car in silence and drive back. They probably didn't talk about it, how could they after this, I don't think they were gonna have rational conversations about this.

Oh, thanks for that, Mel!  No, I knew this chapter wasn't going to pick up again in the shipyard. It felt right for that chapter to end exactly where it did (with the perfect bookend "...Ennis...." Guh.).  Being a wonderful writer yourself, you've completeld the scene perfectly.  You're right - that was not a time for a rational conversation.  But now I'm dying for any kind of conversation between J&E, rational or otherwise (okay, that's  a lie  ::) - I'm dying for a lot more than a conversation between these two!  :laugh:).  But since Kumari is such a smart writer I know she'll let this story develop at the proper pace - and that's probably going to be pretty frustrating for everyone involved.  No quick or easy solutions here, that's for sure. 

Thanks, Mel  :-*

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about that! There might be more going on than they know.

The proper pace developing is pretty frustrating because we have to wait two months between updates. :laugh: No way you are gonna be able to turn over the page and continue reading and that's sooooo annoying! Somehow I think the next time they are gonna meet they are not gonna be alone, it's gonna be some family gathering or something and Jack will drag him somewhere to talk, because Ennis is not gonna be the one to initiate talking I think. Or they will go to a game, I don't know, but it's fun speculating, isn't it?

God, I keep thinking of the playful and easy banter between them in the first chapters and how I hope they will still be able to be best friends if they are lovers, because that makes the best relationships, doesn't it?

Yes, it is fun speculating. You're definitely right about Jack initiating the next conversation - well, at least the next conversation about what's happened between them!

Oh, absolutely.  How I adored listening in on those great conversations between these two - really something special.  Now we just need to combine that kind of rapport with great sex and -  WOW!!! :o  :laugh:

I haven't read anything else by Kumari, but I've heard she is pretty good at the lovemaking scenes! So I think when the time finally comes when they first cross that line (in about half a year, 3 more chapters away.. LOL), then we will probably have to keep the defibrilator very close, whaddayathink?

 ;)

PS. I once heard a quote in a movie about someone who always read the ending of a book because he never knew for sure if he would live to read the ending. Well, it just got me to thinking with this irregular updating... :-\

OMG, Mel - you're right.  Keeping with the pace of the story that's been set and keeping with the update "schedule" - it will be Christmas!!!  :laugh:  Oh, well - I'll  just think of it as a great Christmas present to look forward to!  And if the shipyard scene is any indication, yeah - maybe I should put a defibrilator on my Christmas list   ;)

LOL! I'm glad you pointed this out because this is just the kind of crazy thought that passes through my crazy mind.  I don't read endings first - but I am a very fast reader.  Of course, as you've pointed out - being a fast reader doesn't help when you don't have the next chapter yet!   :-\  :laugh:
