I looooooved the boys in the sex shop :D "breast side story"?, Really??LOL. West Side Story is one of my favorite musicals. Now every time I see it I'm gonna crack up! XD.. That's good, since I've been crying with it since I was five! :P.

It's beautiful to see how they're getting closer, little by little getting what they need "just in case". Of course, here I am screaming: "oh come on! just do it! can't be that difficult, anyway" :P.

He loved his son, but one moment, he'd been back in Paris with Paul and their youthful dreams, and now here he was being called to go and eat rice with rice with his wife who barely touched him any more. It all seemed a bit disheartening.

Thinking about this breaks my heart everytime. I bet John didn't sign up for that. No one does, I think. And for someone like John who was highly sexual, that must have been terrible. Do you ever wonder if that specific missing part of his life, in the late 70's ever had him thinking (probably repeatedly) of Paul? Or anyone else, for that matter.

Great chapter! I really, really can't wait to see what happens next!

We had fun thinking of those. xD

And yes...I often think this about late 70s John. *sigh* Poor John.
