Nice one, Ryan. It's nice to hear about what's going on in SS while the older guys are running around in India.
I like that Jamie is featured in this one. He gets overlooked a bit, I think, since he's the straight younger brother to not one, but two older gay brothers. I know he puts his foot in his mouth sometimes, but I like him. I think he's a good kid, and when push comes to shove, he'll do the right thing. I felt bad for him when he ended up being the babysitter, but it worked out for him with Emily. Good for him.

Thanks Steve, I love Jamie!
You better love Sean, too... Can't have one without the other. We need a Sean story, next.
I really liked this one, too, I still maintain that Ryan's writing tends to get better with each story.
I did do a bit of cynical snickering about the mention of Jamie breaking up with Elise because of her not knowing how World War II ended. At least Jamie realized that was one reason to question whether he should maintain an interest in her.
Sometimes you get the stereotype that the whole education system is just producing such so-called 'airheads', but it's nice to see that most of the guys in these stories take education seriously. The study group that Lucien and Robin started really exemplifies that commitment. They all want to make sure they are helping each other, not just for today, but for building the future, as well, by taking school and learning seriously.
I know a couple people posted about being former teachers... I hope they are proud of the good, studious group of little academics at Columbia.

+2. More Jamie/Sean. You can do straight stories. This one proves it.

For all those who enjoy Sean and Jamie, I think you're going to have a good summer. The Wonder Twins are taking center stage this summer.

Cool! I love the stories about Jamie and Sean.
Perhaps sometime, a story might appear featuring Sean and Teddy with Griffin and Devyn might show up, since all know ASL? Perhaps a gunman could invade Columbia High School, and their ASL skills allow a way of silent communication? Free idea to whoever wants to write such a story.... MY reward would be getting to read another great Sanitaria Springs story!
