First I want to apologize for not reading the last few chapters on time. Although I was a little more than shocked to see just how many chapters I was behind! I'm definitely NOT abandoning the story. I've been frightfully ill, and barely managed to get my next chapter finshed. Anyway... I will catch up tonight.

Can I say I was shocked by what Justin said here? They supported each other’s endeavors without qualification. Because Ethan had just dissed him and dismissed him, and he turns around with that statement. *angry*

Professor Grande... I was thankful to find out that was a woman. I started to wonder if Ethan had previously "talked" to the Professor and got them on his side. And speaking of "Talking"... who is Ethan screwing on the side? Lord, I hope it's not Rory! Because no way do I believe he's practicing that late at night... EVERY night. Maybe that's when he gets his 'bottoming' time in.

And how the HELL did Ethan find out about Brian? Tracking system? But if that was case, wouldn't he have known about that as SOON as Justin was there? Could you imagine if he met them both coming out of the loft? I guess I don't know that much about them, but maybe they record?

God, I hope Ethan doesn't hurt Justin.

HUGS  ~Cathy

Well, Ethan has obviously got some sort of tracking App on Justin's phone. 

It was nice to see Brian... even in a cameo appearance. Hopefully, Justin can escape Ethan's clutches soon. In the meantime, thank goodness he has Daphne.

I read Narcissus long time ago and it fits Ethan so much! He was already like this in the series, but not developed like you do.

If Brian ever finds out what Ethan said about Justin's ability to draw, he would deck him, if Daphne didn't already do it. I could also see Daphne dismembering Misha and using the bow to tie Ethan's balls. Not that I condone violence, physical or otherwise.

Justin finally did something for himself and got his computer back; he was also able to see that Brian wasn't angry. Spending quality time with Daphne might help putting some things into perspective. One can hope!

NB: my last comment about technicalities was due to the "Canon Divergent story starting with ep 2.16." you have in the banner of the story; that's why I didn't think it was set in current day.

Great chapter.  Oh how I hate Ethan.  Any Brian and Justin time together makes me happy.  Wonderful writing

I always like to think that Justin is smarter than this.  Maybe it's a left over from the bashing.



Author's Response:

That's exactly the wrong way to look at this. You're, in essence, blaming the victim for his own abuse. The point I'm trying to make in this story, and specifically in this chapter, is that it doesn't matter how smart or strong or talented you are - if anything, those are the people a narcissist targets - and then he uses those very characteristics against you. It's insidious and totally evil. But don't blame the victim, blame the abuser. TAG
