Ahh no worries! Happy to discuss the story as it's still super fresh for me and I have no irl furry friends so xD 

1. Yeah this is deff valid, like by the end he's basically just hated by everyone it felt like as if he's just supposed to take their word for it and forget about David completely and move on, which isn't realistic at all when they were together as long as they were and childhood sweethearts. 

2. Yeah I was kind of hoping for a discussion where he questioned why they felt like locking him in the classroom and calling the cops was justified. I assume it would've been similar to how Baxter felt and reacted, so bringing it back up would've killed their getting back together. Ik it was mentioned multiple times Marcus's overly protective nature, so it deff goes back to that for sure, but I think he underestimated the importance David had to him and even held it against him when they break up. I get feeling betrayed, but if he were David in that situation then he would've expected Callum to react the same way and to still care for him, but demonizes Callum for feeling how he is. Everyone has their good and bad traits though as they're only human, so that's deff part of Marcus for sure. 

3.Lmao funny u say that about cus for Smoke  legit thought he was going to be this big ass tough guy, like the dialogue had even joked like "that's it?" and it's some cracked out old rabbit lmao but he really just was the head of the group and that was it. I am glad it didn't go into this whole oh no Callum is kidnapped, Marcus needs to save the day! Kinda trope, bc that would've felt a bit stereotypical i feel like for the almost perfect bf Marcus comes off as lol Troy was great, I would love a little side adventure with him or more about him being ace and how he felt kinda being third wheel to the group as they grow into who they are even though he acts chill most of the time. Seeing him and Callum's relationship together is so sweet and his true side that I would've loved to see more of. For me I think Lupe is that char for me, she drove Callum on the quest he was on, but her not getting any resolution when she started the driving plot seemed odd. In my head I hope David visited her on the way out of town, but I feel like he truly thought it was easier for her if he didn't show back up just to leave again, reopening an unclosed wound. 

4. I can see that for sure, I feel like endings are the hardest bits of stories and you don't want to drag things out. I worried it would turn into some standoff thing when David showed up at the door so I'm glad it was kind a quick no I'm done, like Callum truly came to terms that there was no future for them and Marcus was his bf now and that was that. 

Great story, this and What it Feels Like are so well done. Can't wait to see what's next :3
