@[HimboPup](/user/show/10011980) Thank you that's very kind. They'll slot together so you will see plenty of cross over characters. As to why there are not many comments, pass. But I only started writing them last month for the Halloween challenge maybe it takes awhile for readers to commit to reading longer more character driven stories and new writers to learn what the audience wants. Plus this one only went uo a few days ago :blush:

@[Elmara](/user/show/910352) Wow!! I'm very flattered that you're enjoying my writing and.. believe it or not.. I was actually considering sending you an email earlier today in appreciation of your work. :smiling_face_with_tear: Dumb Jock Roommate may be my most re-read story of all time and I'm obviously taking heavy inspiration from it! There's nothing that has made me feel quite like Jon and Theo together, ever, and I wish I really understood why. I think beyond the pure fantasy of it, you opened my eyes to a fascinating archetype of a relationship in which both parties participated with such enthusiasm and motivation (for their own reasons) that their interactions felt entirely plausible and real ...even if unlikely in real life. But what I loved the most was the playfulness in all their interactions and all the creative ideas which led to their eventual and unavoidable coupling which both were eager to have happen. I also really liked the ambiguity of the characters... Sometimes I would think that Jon was actually a genius and he did what he did because he perceived the other person to be attracted to him and an easy target, so he basically engineered these "accidents" which he knew would be tolerated by Theo so he could use him as a fleshlight whenever he felt like it without having himself appear gay ...or maybe he did all that subconsciously... In fact, I LOVE that their interactions are never perceived as gay romantic sex by Jon even though he is more eager to be around and (accidentally) insert himself in Theo than a newly wed mormon couple. Given all of that and more, theres a sense whenever they are fucking that this all is just an innocent play session gone wrong... which is just an insanely hot idea. I'm not even going to try to analyze why that is... With my story I'm attempting to lean a bit more towards "realism" wherein its not outright dicks slipping into holes (yet) but things that can be expected to happen, happen, but with a lucky gay nerd to witness them (or be otherwise affected by them). I think have some good ideas for how to escalate things in the next few chapters so I'm not going to keep edging everyone for much longer... though it may take me some time since I have to be back in class tomorrow... Cheers!

@Cookiesgal Thank you Cookiesgal! 😁

@Flamefox23 :heart: I rewrote sentences so many times...

@gdlosh13@gmail.com Me too!!! Just so you know, a couple other things inspired this story. Obviously, I mentioned my recent trip to the gym, and which I noticed the cum-like soap in the shower. But at my local gym, which happens to be very close to a military base, I notice a lot of the guys posing in the locker room. Men between the ages of 18 - 30, seem to stand in front of the mirror (half-naked or fully clothed) and just talk selfies over and over. I've never seen anything quite like it. Plus there's a guy on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/rickyaldrete/) who takes this really hot gym selfies. He's always wearing spandex, and just looks incredibly hot. So I guess the combination of all this got me thinking about a hot, gym transformation scene. Again, it's a gym that I would want to join.

@[rubbrsome](/user/show/13662) Well I was am extremely hot story. I did not see ir coming until the soap scene. I was hooked. Well to be honest I was hooked from the flashes. I am not a gym person but would join that one.
