So I saw this update and I thought, well, I don't really have time to read it...but what if instead of going to dinner at the dining hall I bring it back to my room and read while I eat, and then it won't take any extra time.

And then I completely forgot about my food.

Oh, lord, you've broken my heart.

Thank you!

Gah, trying to catch up on answering oldold comments.

Oh!

The bittersweet return of the 'Lounge Singer', a box of memories, Matt's not so silent support and instant rapport with Billy, and then the long overdue confrontation between Dom and his Father, and ending in a loving embrace.

A beautiful chapter, I do hope that the boys get what they want/need from this trip back home.

Thank you as always

Oh, love. So much love.

This could have been totally cliche but valiantly stays grounded. I love that even through his ignorance, Austin manages to not come off as a villian, even to Dom. Dom loves him and has always needed his approval, but he's finally coming to terms with the fact that he's not going to get it.

Also, ♥ for the way Dom lit up when his big brother came home. As someone with a big brother, that really hit the spot. And the rapport Matt has with the parents is very real to me too.

Can't wait to see what happens next!

Thanks! I'm trying to catch up on OLD comments here.

I love that you don't see Austin as all bad. :)

I don't understand parents who continue to treat their own children so cruelly through indifference, when those children are killing themselves in the misguided hope of making their parent(s) love them. I hope Dom knows that he is not the problem - Austin wasn't all that warm and loving towards Matt either.

Dom and Billy are so good for each other. I hope Dom continues to grow stronger now that he is free from trying to please his father to gain his love and acceptance.

Always glad to see TGS updates.
