First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 28 It’s fitting that this last commentary falls on Bastille Day, and it has everything to do with the story Jon tells Furball. That’s a true story, by the way, of the guitar player who sat down to keep Jon company, except substitute me with Jon. This [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 26 – Forward to Part 28 …In which Bryan preaches your face off. I almost feel compelled to apologize for how preachy this chapter is. However, it fits with Bryan’s struggle with his parents’ money: it’s not something he’s comfortable about, nor is it something he’s proud [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 26 – Forward to Part 28 The Checker was quiet, the hum of the engine making up most of the conversation in the car. Ty pulled off the highway at the Java exit. Bryan leaned against the window, watching the dark suburbs slide past them, pools of [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 25 – Forward to Part 27 If I had been thinking last week, I would have probably noticed that last week’s post was the end of Bourbon and Farly’s story. There used to be a little bit about Farly worrying about Jon, but it was too conveniently [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 25 – Forward to Part 27 For a long time, Bryan stared at the ceiling. It had to have been close to noon, and that was OK. He still lay in Ty’s bed, Ty still huddled close to him, the blankets pulled tight around her. He couldn’t [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 23 – Forward to Part 25 Bryan’s eyes bring up a topic a lot of authors working with anthro fiction have to deal with: What is furry? That is to say, what makes a character furry? Is it enough to have people that resemble animals in appearance [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 23 – Forward to Part 25 Ty materialized out of the dark as Bryan close the basement door. “What happened?” She asked. She had changed into her sleeping clothes, a well-worn T-shirt and a pair of loose pajama pants. She looked comfortable and warm. Bryan took her [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 22 – Forward to Part 24 I totally fucked up the last two posts. The first part of this post, Furball and Bourbon eating breakfast together, should have been part of the last post. It works, I think, how it ended up, but the breakfast scene should [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 22 – Forward to Part 24 Furball and Bourbon ate breakfast together, neither really talking, but not feeling the need to, either. It was nice for both of them to have the company, someone who wasn’t trying to be their surrogate sibbling, who wasn’t interested in telling [...]

First time reader? Start here. Back to Part 21 – Forward to Part 23 The kids that woke up early for school in Java discovered a new, white-painted world, a scenery change that told them there would be no school that day. The snow that clumped smoothly on the ground was blank for now, but [...]
