🕑 Added 2024-04-21 19:46:56 +0000 UTCThat buildup dooooohhhhh! I will be WORKING MY ASS OFF to get you guys Chapter 13 this week!
*********
A FEW RULES & REMINDERS:
Chapters will be dropping as Bryce completes them. That means anywhere from every 1 to 2 weeks on average, though sometimes waits may be longer.
Recall that these are rough chapters, with no editing other than a single pass-through as Bryce writes.
On a similar note, we are not asking for advice or corrections at this time. If Bryce wants feedback, we will certainly reach out, thank you! If you want to voice concerns or complaints about the chapter, you may now do so over on the Reddit discussion thread below! Notifications are turned off on those conversations, so they're a free-for-all now (within the rules of the subreddit, obviously)!

I was not willing to share this chapter with my husband with the original ending. It made me too frustrated. With the new rework I will. Thanks. Rei going in nearly out of control is just idiotic and Rei has not been portrayed as a stupid man.
Carolyne
With the new ending it is a masterfully balanced clif while asking for patience from Abigail, Rie, and the reader. Thank you
Dr. Chaos
Looking forward to see why Jasper was replaced by Abigail (was not expecting that). The conversation with grandpa should be epic…
Linda Thompson
Hope you’re feeling better and are glad you’re back to some writing but really, a cliffhanger. 🤨

He comes from Japanese descent. Traditionally, Japanese tend not to show much emotion; they worry alot about "saving face". He may not be able to show emotion if he routinely squashes his emotions.

“Hello, Reidon,” Doctor Kamiya Hiroto, CEO of the Kamiya Corporation, greeted him evenly. “I have it on good authority that you wished to speak to me.” I’ve been thinking about these last two sentences. … After searching for his grandson since birth, dealing with his crappy son and daughter-in-law all while running a large corporation. Grandpa Hiroto doesn’t show any remorse, no watery eyes, no hitch in his voice; any of which might put Rei at ease and might help break the ice. I’m addicted to these advanced chapters like everyone here. I just need to riddle this out in my head.
Lorenz
Can’t wait to hear the discussion between Ward and his grandfather!
Kory Leach
I cannot imagine how that felt. Bravo for sharing. I’m hoping Rei feels a level of fondness for his grandfather in time, though his parents can pound sand!
Jason Bradford
Love this. Have accepted I will always be thirsty before and after all chapters. Am really curious where the talk goes and the relationship they establish in light of Rei’s abandonment without grandpas knowledge or blessing
M.Vo.
Omg. I am in a love - hate relationship with these early chapters. They are sooo good - but it's like taking one bite of a delectable meal, only to find that it has been put away, and you must wait for the bite. I know that Mr. O'Connor isn't really trying to starve us- indeed he seeks to feed us these morsels. But my greedy A-typical, obsessive brain is singing Veruca Salt's tantrum song- I want it now! Really, I am so glad we get to see the story unfold. I look forward to every word.

I imagine that we are all as anxious as Rei for this meeting. I know how I think this meeting should go. I went through this in my 20s when I met my father for the first time. It’s all nervousness and excitement and questions. How do you start the conversation. This chapter brings back a lot of memories. I just hope Rei doesn’t feel the need to go fight simulations again. Great chapter. Can’t wait to see how it unfolds.

Favorite typo: “They took a bed in the path, then another”. Aria gonna be so mad at Rei bedding the second he gets outside Galens. 😅

Jasper’s on another job eh? Wonder if that’s just due to busy fixer schedule or setting up the details with the incoming trainers… or maybe Hiroto doesn’t want his student and sometimes practical corporate sense limiting his response.
Mike Frenkel
Again with the cliffhangers Bryce? Sigh. Fantastic work as usual!
Janet Beane
I liked the build up to the meeting and how we learn more about his feelings regarding the meeting. I wonder why it was regrettable that Rei didn't hear the comment about the setting making him feel more comfortable. Was it because it would have made him feel better about the meeting since they were considering his feelings, or because not hearing it will lead him to say or do something he would rather not have said once he gets to know Dr. Kamiya better? I'll just have to wait and see.

No why did it have to end at the best part
Justus Wingert
"Cliffhangers are evil." The dude who wrote the above chapter... 🤣
Georgina Shultz
What have we said about cliffhangers, Bryce? *tsk* I hope you're feeling better
Jeremy Jensen
Love these updates! While I generally love the build up for impactful events, this chapter felt almost needlessly drawn out and did the opposite for me. I found I was actually getting a little more bored the further it went on. it will probably flow better in a completed book but in a standalone chapter it definitely felt too much.
Hellasz123
I knew it wont happen this chapter T_T

Rumor (that I’m starting) has it Bryce’s family shortened their last name when arriving to the Americas from O’Cliffhangonnor…
Tom
It's times like this that I regret not waiting for the whole book to be released...
Tox
I should have waited. Now imma be chewing my nails til the next chapter is out…
Heather Herren
Awesome chapter. Been waiting a very long time for this conversation. Thank you for belting this part for us!! Hope you continue to feel well!!
Voror
I knew where it was gonna end but I was still mad about it lol Been looking forward to this for a while. I imagine Rei may lay into him perhaps though I'm hoping we get some more info. Also why do I feel Jasper isn't here partially due to getting the trainers together and partially because Rei's sis causing all that drama?
Kory Leach
Oh, that was just RUDE! Good chapter, but man sometimes I hate the inability to turn the page and keep going!

I am a fan of this as well. Although I will admit, since I didnt re-read the previous chapters first, that it took me a good minute to figure out why Martin was in there. On first read I was like, so why does Firesong have 7 on their side for this? Typo? lol.
Ben Heggem
dammit was hoping we'd get part of the meeting before the end lol
Chris skinner
I an extremely excited for the next chapter! Love the build up!
saynt
not got through the chapter yet but liking pointing out martin is not part of the team.
Linn G
I was about to go to bed but this is more important lol. Hope you’re feeling better!

I'm about to settle in to an all-nighter for my last essay of uni so thank you for starting it off well!! Also glad you're feeling well enough to start writing again!!
Gama
A surprise to be sure but a welcome one! Can’t wait to dig in.
LawBear2005
Thanks Bryce and I hope you are feeling better!
William Anderson
Been looking forward to this one! Can’t wait!
