I was so worried when you didn't update. You would not be the first writer to have an amazing thing going and then disappear into the ether. I'm hanging off of every word of this story and I'm emotionally invested in Joseph. I can see why you weren't quite happy with the ending of this one. I think you seem a little timid to change from Joseph's inner monologue to Troy's and visa versa, so it didn't flow quite like it usually does near the end there. Other than that it was an amazing update and I hope you have time for an early one. I live for the early updates lol

Meant to leave review last chapter but tablet acted up as usual. Just watching where things go, as I know you have a plan. Watching hints and direct statements... The run with Troy... Thanks as always.

Think that Troy may have earned just a bit of respect from me (for whatever that's worth.) subbing for Joseph with virtually no limits. Can't help but wonder how they would be together on equal footing, give and take as needed. Have I told you how much I love early updates? Actually I seem to love all updates, but the early ones are always when I am working, so torn between trying to read and getting my work done. I like Joseph's times with Gina, as he is not trying to be something for someone else. That file is gonna open soon, I can smell it... and you haven't tossed my thoughts out, yet. I usually put much less in words than I think though, so I may not have had much to toss. Anyway, as always, thanks.

Oh man I love this chapter troy as a willing sub oh how the tables turned. I can't believe you left this on a cliffhanger! I love this story.

That thin line between love and hate..that's where I have Troy in my mind. and Heath nailed it..it always comes back to Salway... Thanks for finding an amazing wake-up call for Joseph, even if the alarm was a bit unnerving. Matt and Vincent.. wasn't expecting that.. wonder if Heath would sell in the future?..wonder if he'd do well as a companion slave?..wonder if Matt would just corrupt him? (it always comes back to Salway). I'm looking forward to the next chapter.. Hell, looking forward to the next story. Thanks again.

Evlyn is annoying me more than usual this chapter. Not your characterization. It's her continued lack of comprehension about slavery. Seems like she'd get more educated considering her regard for Joseph but maybe that's her age and background. Just every time she's SHOCKED, I TELL YOU, SHOCKED about some aspect of slavery it grind s me. Well, really every free person who acts that way but Evlyn most of all.

Something poured to me. I think the whole belonging to someone is a good part of why Joseph is unsure about freedom but I think there may also be perceptions of safety influencing him as well. Because I think he feels safest with a 'good' master. His only experiences with freedom are pre Salway and he doesn't remember much except ending up with a sadist/monster. The idea of protecting himself is terrifying.

I don't think he's even thought through what would happen to Matt if he were sold away and his friends were unable to step in. Matt may be free now but he's still a minor and whoever he ended up with could pretty much do anything.

Of course, always IMO.

Whoa.. Did Joseph get disappointed with Troy's show... And is Troy pleased with that disappointment? And is Troy really gonna be Joseph's sub for a belated birthday present? And is that gonna be private.. or another public show? Do I sense Joseph getting closer to buying himself out? How big a threat is Salway? More so to Matt I would think.. although he can be a rather unpredictable bastard I suppose and probably with some thoughts of revenge. Do we get to sit in on another session with Gina? I'd like to get a better idea of where Joseph's confused thoughts have left him, because so many contradict something he previously thought it seems. Growth and changes are hard for anyone.

Another great chapter. I'm not sure if you have mentioned Joseph's birth date before. But I read the piece to mean Joseph was 21 not that his birthday was on the 21st so I think your safe there. I haven’t noticed ant continuity errors. As for heath wanting Joseph please dont have troy sell him as he wouldn’t care about matt the way troy does. Maybe for Joseph's birthday make up troy could arrange for both him and Denise to use him for a weekend while matt is at camp. Keep up the the good work I really enjoy this story. P.s. When are we gonna find out about the folder?

CCH

Troy's birthday is January 6? 7? OCD.. explains why I keep going back into both stories trying to keep ages and timing of certain landmarks in these stories sorted.. and I thought it was just me.. and also why when my tablet decides not to post, I just let it go, anymore. I'm certain that all the loose ends and loopholes that I can think of, you have already thought of and more. The file will gather dust until it is time. I understand Joseph's mixed feelings about Matt, now. I like Troy a bit uncertain.. makes me think he could really handle a relationship, which unfortunately is still not what Joseph wants, even if I do think it is more what he needs. Heath is happy spending big money on shock-value, and if it isn't expensive or jaw-dropping or preferably both, he has no desire, I think. I could wish that Joseph didn't desire to be just that, but... Where to next?
