They're finally together! That's so awesomee. Even though its a no sex-relationship type thing. So awesome chappy and whatnot and yes I am reviewing pretty late. I am very slightly kinda sorry... update soon.. maybe?

I just want to say I love this story. I've been following it since about chapter 5, but I don't think I've ever reviewed it. I'm bad about that. But I've read this through 4 times and it's gotten me back to this site and back to writing. Thank you for writing this and for not letting it die after the long break.

:D Pure fucking happiness! Finally they're officially together. I wonder how long it'll take until they have sex. Oh and I'm kinda excited about maria's baby girl. :) Will maria be sticking around for a while? Will we get to be there to see her raise the baby?

Hmm that's interesting never woulda guessed that's how this story was born. I wonder is anyone gonna tell Maria what she's in for? Yay Ion got himself a boyfriend.

I really liked this chapter. _

Yay pancakes! Jude is coming along just fine. He and Ion are great together. Thanks for the new chapter, always a treat.

I started to read this story thinking it was going to be another emo closeted young man afraid to make friends so noone wouold find out about him, but in a few chapters I was intrigued about the cute talkative boy who didn't see some people; including another boy totally infatuated with him. Then came the mysterious shy boy covered in blood splatters. I love that the fantasy didn't just come into fruition all of a sudden, but you built the relationship the boys had, and why some of their quirks came from. You didn't inundate us with whole family history, there is still much that is a secret. it's great you had the boys bond and grow up some before all the action and emotional and physical maturity started to happen. There are so many special characters that I love. Mikey is just like a little brother to everyone because of his innocence, but he's a lot wiser than people give him credit for. Wiley is so cool, but I think he needs a rest and a relationship with Sal maybe. Hee Hee. Finn is like Sandra Dee, "Hopelessly devoted to you." At least he got some happiness for a while, which is better than nothing. Jude and Ion are doing a dance to cement their feelings together they have to work for it. Once they sort it out they'll be a strong couple together, because the need oneanother for their own reasons. They are already inseperable. Do you really dream up all these monsters too. Your actions schens make feel like I can see the carnage and smell all the blood. Very cool. I'm very addicted to your story, and wanted to say you have a very vivid and amazing imagination, and dreams. Can't wait to read what comes next for this organization, and if they can stick together without trouble from within. Thank you for allowing us all to read it.

Hello!

I've been over at Riverside... well, close to forever now as one of the resident lurkers. I followed you there over to here and have been reading this story pretty much since it started. So, really there are two things I'd like to cover:

1.) Apologies for lurking for so long and taking forever to say hello and that I love your writings. :)

2.) This chapter made me literally grin and squee at the end. Outloud. Which is a very rare thing. I think the only other author here that has gotten that reaction from me is Jesse.

Your story has been a very unique and interesting idea to follow, but what has really captured my interest is your characters. I am a sucker for good characters, and I'd like to think I know how to spot the bad ones. The little, but very important, piece of character developement you've had in this chapter was what I've been waiting for since chapter one. The dialogue at the end was fantastically executed and believable. I like the way that you are taking your time with Jude and letting him open up in pieces, because really, every time I read the stories about the abused kids who find a person they attatch to then just open up like it's christmas in emotion-ville make me want to slap someone. It's little gems like this last dialogue that keep my faith in up and coming writers and I am letting you know that even though I don't review/talk much I will be reading for as long as you are writing and quite happy and excited to do so.

So thank you. And I apologize again for this being so much longer than I thought it would be ;)

~Love and squish-hugs~

Lies. That chappy was like TWO words. But it was awesome nontheless. Ion and Jude finally fixed their little non-relationship. I am actually secretly (but not so secretly) hoping that Jude decides to "try" and molest Ion pretty soon...

Long chapters are good *0*

Things are walking in the right direction :D

Lmfao Jude finally confessed his fear of sex to Ion man that's hilarious. Jude such a bleeding heart its kinda funny he ended up here.

I thought it was a good lenght, it was a nice transition to what had come before to "the talk". It felt natural, and it broke at a good place. Thanks.

The longer the better baby! Really liked this chapter. I was particularly amused by the "icky about getting it on with another dude" sentence. I know this review is kinda short, but I kind of feel like I don't have anything constructive to say, but I figured I'd drop you a review to let you know that I'm still reading and I still love the story!

Nice.

I liked the lack of emotion, Wiley doing what was needed. It was reasoned but not fussed over just enough morality - their extrmeme experiences would have muted the shock value from the action.

The scenes with Ion :) they're working it out slowly in a messed up fashion - it's fun to watch.

Thank you for another update. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ion. You are great at telling a story. Keep up the great work!
