The Art of Trying (Part 7)

[lennon_jok]

This chapter is quite disturbing and contains homophobic views expressed through the character of Mr Brady. I really hope none of this offends anybody; the character is scum and obviously none of the views are my own!!

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Why! Poor Ste just keeps getting abused! But on a better note nice good! I feel like you've really got these characters down.
P.S If you look up on emmettscanlanfans video part 74 Cheryl says the name of their dad when she's talking to Ste. But her accent's a litle too heavy for me to make it out.

soorrrryyy! he does get abused, but thats only cos our bren can wade in and look after him then! don't worry, i like good old fashioned justice as well. I can't find the video you're talking about - do you have a link?? I'll have a go at trying to make it out! x

Cheryl and Ste's conversation at around 1:55 tune in, she'll say it. Sounds like Scarferd, but I don't think that's a name.

ahh, she says "our dad scarpered" as in 'our dad ran away', she's not actually saying his name. What a shame; I don't really want to give him one myself, but is it annoying just calling him Mr Brady?

I really enjoy this story and your writing. The characters are spot on, you write them in a very vivid way, I can literally hear their voices, it's just amazing. I can't wait for the next update, but please, don't make the old men hurt Steven. It'll break my heart, and Brendan's as well.

thank you, that means a lot, especially if you think i've got the characters down - thats obviously the most important thing to me. so cheers! i'll try not to keep you hanging long! x
