"How do I make a mouse character look cool?"

See Don Bluth films. Secret of Nihm. An American Tale. Yes, they're cool because they're all mice but like real life, confidence is key.

Though we're all reading about a mouse that isn't cool but his relationship is super cute. I think the author might be going for "base it on my life" model.

It's been a while since I've gone on a binge. There are parts of this that honestly surprised me. Spoilers:

Especially the death of the shaman. I thought for sure it was the mom. But not HER mom. I will admit when her mom appeared in her dream before getting married and her dad suddenly disappearing after trying to make contact, I thought their family had powers and the shaman was a rival of theirs or something. But her mom really stuck around to protect her baby. "Blossom's" mom wishes she was that courageous.

Beat his r*py *ss!
Yes!
Run, go, leave! Your reputation depends on you not being seen in there or coming out of there!
Poor thing. This definitely calls for a bath.
...Valkas, I know you didn't take care of him that fast. Throw is *ss out!

My naive butt thankfully only got to experience the close up, knee grab. My parents would notice and pull me out to tell me what would have happened next when it was safe instead of life letting me learn first hand. I didn't get it then but I started to in university when I volunteered for a call center to arrange rides for women near campus to not have to walk home by themselves at night.

I want to be able to frolic though the fields under the moonlight without worrying about a man, racoon, bear, or mountain lion to pop up out of nowhere. Is that really so hard to ask for? The neighborhood cats are not the greatest security detail (though it's fun as hell having them follow behind.)

This is a series that didn't come back to me after the site crash. It's popped in and out of my mind for months. I couldn't find it under this historical, romance, or age-gap tags because there were so many. Thank you, universe.

I actually screamed out loud when TJ picked him up. Our boy was never destined to have a quiet, unassuming life as much as he tried to be that kind of person.

Legit thought the dude threw acid to scar her up. I mean, based on what it ended up doing, it could have.

But on the other hand, Ilex needs to have a conversation. Tilla is blinded by hate and her (reasonable) perceived notions about men. So for this to go anywhere, he needs to tell her not only what's going on leading him to these seedy places but also that he hasn't, in fact, slept with every other woman on campus just because they asked him to (because I highly doubt it; dude doesn't seem to have the time, for one.)

Also, fun fact: ilex is the genus name for holly plants. So we can call him Holly.

Well hello there, Anton. You single and ready to mingle?

He was appointed while barely being thirty so perhaps not. But we can look all we like, no?

As soon as he mentioned the scar, I zoomed in and couldn't see it. I went back to when he first saw the tattoo too. All I see is the tattoo, his shoulder blades, a bit of lower trap tone, and the line of his lower spine.

Is the scar in the room with them?

There's a chip in the armor! Twilight caught some feels! He's still processing but such a big step.

And Yor slapping some reality back in is just going to make their bond so much stronger. Because they all know the sacrifices they had to make and it shows to others that indeed, similar sacrifices have been made to get them where they are now. Mutual respect.

Maybe fifty more chapters and we can have them find out each other's secret identity. Build that bond up a bit more, since their strongest thread is their protection of Anya.

That blood better be from your arm. And you need to go buy Plan B. You can't knock up a soon-to-be-Olympian; he will literally kill you if you wreck his dream.
