Thank you for the kind words. I don't know if it's just me, but I would consider it bad manners to discuss my works on this forum dedicated to TA, so I'd be happy to send you a direct message and discuss your points.

I've always tried to remain objective in my discussion of TA, my only caveat to that is I've said I hope that Sarah wins in the end. I personally don't have an agenda for the story nor do I have a particular desire to see it go "this or that way."
With that in mind, I would hope you agree that the average IRL person would consider both Dan and Sarah's actions in this story abnormal at best and deviant or another choice word in the extreme. So when I say Redemption, most would think of Dan and Sarah resolving this history with Lester to be an act of redemption; repairing their marriage, doing what's right for their children, saving their family, etc. And that if Sarah were to forsake her marriage and cast her family in disarray by choosing a life with Lester to be a Dark ending.
I know there is a language difference between us so please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like you value the individual's best interests more important than what the larger society would think normal or correct behavior. Example: Sarah choosing what is best for her vs her choosing what's best for the marriage/family she made a commitment to.
You asked whether I thought Sarah and Dan's ending together was dark or bright: I grew up in a very ordered black and white environment - no grey. As a young adult this view of the world clashed with the chaos I encountered. So to answer, I say there is no such thing as an absolute; right/wrong, good/evil, dark/bright, order/chaos. Life is messy and complicated and a series of hard choices. So I believe each person must make that decision for themselves.

I would have to agree with them - I think it was necessary to show Mary's contempt and condescension for Sarah but it could have been tightened up to be a paragraph of "Mary spent most of the meeting shooting down Sarah's ideas at every turn. The condescension apparent in her passive aggressive answers - they remained outwardly civil and above censure from her superiors. But as Lester sat there and listened to it he decided he'd had enough."

Caesar, so you find the story not realistic and uninteresting and that you find Lester's character implausible or unbelievable. If this is accurate, what about it brings you back to reading it? Is it just the erotica elements, or do you have hope that it will change to a story you will like?

The story is borderline itself, so my opinion is meant in this context of course.
To answer your question, I was referring only to Lester playing outside his usual playground as a pro, which is incoherent with Lester general description, and Lester controlling Sarah in hospital “forever”, since Lester HQ is in Chicago.
The consequences of this are up to DS not me. Imho ignoring this is a giant plot hole but if your are referring to Lester as Superman. And I don’t like Superman idea. Here the only one who could play as Superman is Byron, just to remain inside the story.

I agree none of us can write the TA story only DS has that option, as a reader we can invent in our own minds what happens or interpret what's written how we would like, but neither would be cannon to what DS writes.
---------
Regarding HQ - technically Lester's HQ is anywhere he has access to the internet, so as long as he has a laptop he is at his "HQ". Granted he would realistically have better access to his "network of pawns" in Chicago as he hasn't had the time to create one in Middleton.
Regarding Superman - actually I think Lester is pretty average - he's clever and cunning and uses that intelligence to leverage his pawns and victims, but at the end of the day he's just a dick of a person, with a big dick. If we are using Superhero metaphors I would say Lester is a limited version of Batman vs the invincible nature of Superman.
Regarding HQ - really you have caught exactly what I mean.
Regarding Superman - I would agree with your metaphor…but Lester skills are almost supernatural, so Superman

No additional updates. It went quiet after the initial Parreon chat about TC5 dropping soon. Soon as I see something I will let everyone know. Unfortunately not looking good for Don on his New Years resolution to create and drop more content in 2025.
The arguments I presented to the chat about Lester using Otis to demean Mary has gained some serious traction. Lot like the idea but others don’t see much much merit and only want to see Otis and Sarah by themselves without Lester around. Don’t understand that argument as her thrill is doing things for Lester not the pleasure she gets from Otis. She said those same turn on words to Byron and look at where that got him. Also there is a talk about Otis being black but I don’t remember Don describing his race anywhere. Did I miss anything?

I think of Lester as more of an overweight Joker (Heather Ledger version) who thrives on chaos and destruction of others. He is sloppy dressed, smart, crazy but very cunning and convincing to gain a loyal band of thugs to follow him. However at the same time he has and offers no loyalties to othersRegarding HQ - really you have caught exactly what I mean.
Regarding Superman - I would agree with your metaphor…but Lester skills are almost supernatural, so Superman

EDITED Since Ch.26 was kind of a bummer and advanced the story very little let us move on to Ch.27. It was predicted fireworks were going to be lit for many characters. I’ve had my ideas but I wanted to see what character you think will see significant movement in the next chapter besides Lester and Sarah having their usual unprotected sex?

I can't find a reference for it, but I think it's a sign of a good writer when you can describe a character but also allow the reader to interpret how you would like or allow you to fill in the blanks.

Curious - how many people here would be okay with this series winding down to a final? Like if the next 10 chapters or less, focused on the three main characters and we got an ending. Would you want that, or would you be disappointed?

Imo, here are the themes he hasn't explored yet: Anal, FF, FMF, Humiliation of Dan with him present, true breeding, Sarah's commitment to Hotwife/Slutdom lifestyle, Sarah explaining to Dan that he is indeed a cuck and that she's going to have sex with whoever, whenever and where ever she wants. Obvi there are lots of other themes but I'm focused on the ones that make sense for this series.

It seems a lot the simps want Don to cover every genre of erotica with Toxic Attraction: erotic coupling, mind control, exhibitionist/voyeur, romance, BDSM, incest/taboo, gangbang/group, interracial, loving wife, fetish, and non-consent/reluctant. That is a bit too much trying to stretch the story in so many dif direction each chapter. Don has forgotten the essence that made Toxic Attraction so good and unique in the first place, it was about Sarah, Lester and Dan. Lester said it best: no one else matters

I think we crossed over on topics. I meant that I thought it was a good idea to write and describe a character so that regardless of who the reader is - the reader would have room to imagine the specifics about said character.

Seems like a Ferris moment….Bueller…..Bueller.….Bueller. Its quiet on the forum tonight.
I’m a long time fan and want Toxic Attraction to end soon before it reaches it’s sell by date. How this story carries on reminds me a lot of The Walking Dead TV series. As the show reached its peak and a financial hit, the show runners wanted to extend the benefits by rolling out episodes each week with the same tropes and dialogue. Hoping no one would notice even as hard core fans said enough. By the time they saw the decline and fans leave, they went jump the shark by killing off fan favorites to stem the tide. It was too late. So end it so Don can focus resources on his future stories as he devoted way too much into Toxic while leaving other stories to suffer
