>>I remember when we we wrote short story segments for the post-virus, post-apoc piece Rick had us do several years ago.<<

Going to have to find that thread and re-read it, I had forgotten about that entirely.

If you'd like me to look over something, just let me know. I enjoy those kinds of things since it's new and different.

As to Owen...all I can speak to is myself. Starting at about 14, I wanted to seal the deal with any willing female. Repeatedly. I didn't accomplish that for a few more years, but it wasn't for lack of trying.
Now I'm just a jaded old man who is a bit wiser in human behavior than he used to be. I know that if I could have this 48YO brain in my 17+YO body, I'd have spent a lot of time in clinics getting shots.
