The Torture Continues Part 1

Title- The Torture Continues

Characters- Luke, Reid’s heart, Chris, Katie, Casey, Bob, Tom, Lily and Holden.

This is a sequel to Reid Slowly Tortures Chris and should be read as such. This was getting too long and so I have split it into two parts.

Rating PG 13 for language, angry Luke tends to drop the F-bomb with alarming regularity.

Setting: This is

Am I meant to hate everyone in this fic besides Luke and now Casey? Cause I do! How rude and insensitive of them to only think about themselves and expect Luke to put their needs before his own.

I stopped watching the show after the "hold the phone" episode, so I was seriously disturbed to read that none of the Hughes showed up to Reid's funeral (was this an element you added to the fic or did it happen this way on the show).

Yes you are supposed to hate everyone except Luke and Casey and Katie is coming around. No one went to the funeral except for Luke, Noah, Lily and Holden. There wasn't even any mention of why no one else was there. I was shocked that so few people were there to support Luke and especially that Bob and Casey and Katie were absent.
Tom was horrible to Luke at the hospital, he really acted like a vulture.

Thanks for reading.

Tom, AND Bob, and John were vultures. Tom and John I can understand, they never knew Reid. But Bob was like a father to Reid. I never understood how he could give up so quickly and decide to harvest organs. And he knew how great Luke and Reid's love was (he and noah and katie were the only ones who knew that Reid quit his job for Luke) that obviously speaks volumes. But he shrugs his shoulders and says "Get the heart!" Whatever, the story wasn't about Reid anymore, it was Chris' story.

I know. I really felt like the writers ruined the character of Bob that day. The story became all about Chris which I hated. I get that Chris was his son, but really would you really forget about a colleague that you had mentored because he was in an accident? Would you not at least try to save his life?
Why the show made Chris so unrootable and then had him live I will never understand.
Katie would have been much happier living with Reid, until Simon came back to town, IMO.

Worst line ever was when Luke said "This is so unfair" and Bob said "It's always unfair when a young man dies" wow Bob how generic. If you gave a shit about Reid you would say something much more intimate. Like how Reid finally found Luke and love and acceptance and friends and now he's gone. Not "Oh yeah it sucks when anyone dies" how is that helping Luke?

I could rant about this all day.

Hi I've paraphrased this "It's always unfair when a young man dies" in the third chapter. I hope that you don't mind. Bob is still incredibly insensitive.
