AFriendlyFace Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) The Masquerade by Julien Gregg Julien Gregg's Fall Anthology story ***Possible Spoilers*** Great story! I really didn't see the ending coming! I mean I guess I should have since I knew how much Alex liked Darry, but I was thinking if anything he'd end up with Paul or something. WOW, I was just so surprised when Darry said: "I stood by and watched you fall for Barry when I was falling for you the whole time." totally unexpected! It was a really great story too! Darry seemed like such a cool friend! LOL, I was thinking Alex was being a bit over-dramatic, but I guess it all worked out for the best. It was so cute that they ended up wearing costumes from the same obscure comic. I did feel really badly for poor Alex with the way his former friends and parents treated him I'm glad Darry's parents were there for him. Anyway great job, Julien, I really liked the last line too: "Maybe we'll be late to the party," -Kevin Edited October 29, 2006 by Kitty Link to comment
C James Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I thought Darry was setting Alex up with Paul, and that was the whole reason for getting Alex back to Storeyville. When Darry confessed his feelings, I was bowled over! TOTALLY unexpected! Thanks for a great story, with a delightful ending!! Link to comment

When Darry confessed his feelings, I was bowled over! TOTALLY unexpected! Thanks for a great story, with a delightful ending!! Ditto! I'd still like to know why Paul wanted to see Alex, but that's not really that imporant. Well done! Link to comment

Great anthology peice Julien. Link to comment
DarkShadow Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Definately didn't see that coming. I can't imagine why he didn't say something when they were younger, but I suppose Darry wasn't sure of himself in his younger years. The image of two caped super heros trudging off to bed was interesting too! I love a happy ending and really enjoyed your story Julien. Thanks! Link to comment
knotme Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I'd like to know what Darry whispered to Paul. "Back off, he's mine!"? Link to comment
