1. Trouble 3 reviews, 2,416 words,

   Ugh, how long as it been? Oh, well, new chapter finally on! And another 3 or 4 may follow soon! 

    

2. School Circus 1 reviews, 3,129 words,

   After a much shorter wait than last time, here it is! 

   Oscar now has to deal with the social consequences of what he and Jean did. Might not be pretty. Might not be so bad. 

3. Odd Friendships 1 reviews, 3,951 words,

   Edited to the best of my ability. Feel free to point out mistakes. 

   Contains some revelations about Jean's past that might unsettle some people. 

4. My New Girlfriend 1 reviews, 3,949 words,

   Edited to the best of my ability. Please feel free to point any mistakes. 

5. Lions Do It Too 1 reviews, 3,808 words,

   Edited to the best of my ability. As the chapter's title says, it contains mentions of animals "doing it". 

6. Looking for Answers 2 reviews, 2,318 words,

   Edited to best of my ability. I did the same research Oscar did in order to write that chapter. Results were true at the time of writing, which was a couple of months ago.

7. Boys Don't Cry 1 reviews, 2,850 words,

    

   Edited to the best of my ability. Sorry for the late update!

8. Multicultural Salad 1 reviews, 3,423 words,

   Edited to the best of my ability. Warnings this time go for Oscar's parents making an appearance again. 

9. Slap, Slap, Kiss 1 reviews, 4,256 words,

   Edited to the best of my ability and still on schedule!

10. Drifting 1 reviews, 4,718 words,

    Edited to the best of my ability. Warning: Jean gets a bit creepier than usual. Minor incidents that could be read as attempt sexual assault. More homophobic bullying. Henry's situation gets on a downhill spiral.

11. Camping 1 reviews, 4,542 words,

    WARNING: Implied child abuse towards the end of the chapter.

    Edited to the best of my ability. Corrections and constructive criticism are welcome. =P

12. Bad Sex 1 reviews, 4,479 words,

    Edited to the best of my ability. As the chapter title implies, it contains scenes of a somewhat graphic nature. However, as the chapter title also implies, this is not necessarily a good thing. 

    TW: Some bits of the third and second scenes of the chapter heavily imply child sexual abused occurred to a certain character in the past. If you would rather skip those scenes, the Chapter End Note has a summary of the scene's content.

13. Good Sex 1 reviews, 3,962 words,

    Edited to the best of my ability.

    Oscar and Olivia are at it again. Sorry if it's not what the kind of thing you enjoy the most, but it definitely has a reason for being there. I promise. ;)

14. Reality Shock 1 reviews, 4,786 words,

    Edited to the best of my ability.

    Warning: Homophobic violence. Someone got seriously hurt and it's all Jean's fault.

15. Henry's Long Journey 1 reviews, 4,263 words,

    Edited to the best of my ability. May contain more typos than usual because I only managed to finish writing it this morning.

    WARNINGS: details of Henry's injuries and how they happened. Oscar is triggered by it and we finally learn what happened between him and his father at the end of Chapter 02. (The beginning and end of these particular bits will be marked by sentences in bold. Don't read anything between them if you would rather skip those parts)

16. Spanish Evening 1 reviews, 4,292 words,

    Edited to the best of my ability.

    Oscar spends some time with Olivia's family. There's about a mind-blow per page for the poor guy.

    And we get a little introduction of what will be the main theme after chapter 20... 

17. Prelude 1 reviews, 2,901 words,

    Thanks Lisa for the editing! :)

    It's exam time and everyone is buried knee-deep in revisions. It's so much tension they can't even keep their tempers in check. 

    The title might as well read "Prelude to Disaster", but I don't want to doom this story before I absolutely have to... ;)

18. Play Time 1 reviews, 4,861 words,

    WARNING: contain hints of child sexual abuse. Though this time around it's not so much a hint as an anvil figuratively (and painfully) dropping on your foot. As per usual, a safer summary can be found on the end notes.

    Thanks Lisa for the awesome editing!

19. It's a Guy Thing 0 reviews, 4,732 words,

    Thanks Lisa for the painstaking editing job! :)

    We're now approaching the end of the first major story arch. 

    This may or may not be related to this unexpectedly early update. ;)
