Happy birthday Marga!! :party: :hugs:

Wave

Monty may have joked, but he wasn't sure he'd done much of the seducing. Was it not Rupert who had stopped him in the conference hall all those years ago to compliment his presentation? Was it not Rupert who, upon hearing about his loss, had kindly come to visit him? And was it not Rupert who...

There was nothing like the prospect of a Christmas party to remind Monty he was, in fact, still a very anxious man. Of course he was. All those fears and insecurities had never really gone away. They simply lurked at the edge of his comfort zone - a boundary he seldom dared approach, let alone...

There was always something with Rion. Things were never as simple as they first appeared. Of course this was about her and Ava. He couldn't believe it had taken him this long to realise it. He took off his glasses, his expression softening. "It's nice to marry your best friend, I'm sure," he...

"It's a birthday card," said Monty. There was nothing romantic about a birthday card. Was there? He couldn't recall what Ava had written, but he was sure it was all perfectly friendly. Unless... Well, he was known to be oblivious about that sort of thing. Had this been one of those times he was...

Monty laughed. There had been a time he'd been certain he was in love with Ava, but he recognised his feelings now for what they were. Platonic. He loved Ava dearly, but they weren't meant to be anything more than friends. "I'm too old for all that," he said. "Anyway, we don't have feelings for...

Welcome back Vicky!! :hugs: I definitely remember you, of course!! I totally understand starting fresh after a break, but I loved your characters before so I'm excited to see what you do with Miles. Hope to see you around more soon :wub:

"Yes, about twenty years, now." Monty pretended to continue sorting his files, though really he shuffled them about aimlessly. Deciding what to keep and what to destroy was going to take him more than the month he'd allowed himself. Why did he have to be so sentimental?

Monty looked up from the files he was sorting on the table. He was no longer surprised by the sorts of questions Rion came out with, but they did sometimes make him nervous. "Yes," he said. "Why?"

Monty took a sip of his wine, hiding the smile that had become a permanent fixture on his face that evening. Considering he had never been on a real date before, it was going remarkably smoothly. The conference had been even more interesting than he'd expected, the dull parts brightened by the...

Thank you for the update Emzies ^_^

Set at the beginning of the Christmas break, 2062. Monty was afraid of a lot of things, but nothing frightened him more than his granddaughters' silence. Both Ainmere and Rion had been terribly quiet all evening, and neither would tell him what the matter was. Had he said something wrong? Had...

Ondine's banner (made by Zephie)

Monty had hoped introducing himself as Rupert's friend might put the man at ease, but if anything, it appeared to have made him more uncomfortable. Contrary to what he had said, he clearly wanted to be left alone. "Oh! Actually, I - completely forgot - I'm supposed to be meeting somebody...

Well, that wasn't the reaction Monty had expected. The man almost looked frightened at the mention of Rupert's name. Perhaps he was tired of being recognised all the time; it must have been odd, having a famous twin - especially one in politics. "Oh, I'm just a friend," said Monty, keen to put...

:hugs: Take care of yourself Camilla, and never worry about letting people down, you always come first!!

Monty hoped Alistair wouldn't push him to elaborate, and he didn't. Neither of them needed reminding of their time at Hogwarts. It had been awful for Monty and uncomfortable, at best, for everybody else. Even thinking about it made him feel sick, so he latched onto the sound of Alistair's voice...

Mate (It switched my account =)) pretend I’m Susie Lagowski I guess)

Monty had obviously startled the poor man. He smiled apologetically. A store... Yes, that seemed right, although he couldn't have said which store, or when. "Quite possibly, yes," he said. But that wasn't why he'd interrupted the man's ice cream. He saw people he recognised every day; the...
