V.

Thanks, and thats one cute happy dance.

It is a nice change of pace. Something good has to happen for him every once and a while. Nice work.

Thanks. I'll be getting to your recent stories real soon now.

I admit that with all the tragedies and Timothy's ability to see spirits, these had kind of lost my interest for a while, but I came back with this one. I'll be interested to see where this goes from here on out.

Incidentally, if you want to combine them into one file that'd be fine, but if you delete the old files, PM me with a list of the URLs or prompts or something so it'll be easier to take the old links out of the archives and replace them with the new one.

I should probably fess up a little. After the first couple of prompts using Timothy I had the vague idea of getting to about this point in his life. I had the story arc planed out very loosely but always with the intention of doing pretty much whats happened so far. Although I hadn’t planned on being that harsh to him. What’s to follow is going to be less dispiriting but I hope still interesting and also more dependent on the prompts as to what his future will be.

As for the single file thing I’m thinking of one file to link to instead of nearly a dozen now. Just to make it easier to catch up. Kind of like what you do with the archive, which is a brilliant idea I’m eager to steal.

You're a very talented writer. I'll definitely be checking out the rest of these stories, whether I need tissues or not.

Thanks, and don't say I didn't warn you.

I have been folowing Timothy this may well be the most hopful story of the lot.

Until the next one.

Thanks.

I hated thinking that the staff of a school *knew* some kid was being picked on, but they didn't do anything about it...so I gave them the benefit of the doubt sometimes and told myself "No, they probably don't know."

In every story of an institution that’s supposed to take care of and protect children you occasionally hear stories where a child suffered because they’re plight seemed to slip by unnoted, fell between the cracks or are actively ignored. Not everyone involved tried to let it happen but there’s still a side to human nature that dictates the group mentality as a whole will naturally tend to look at the odd or unusual and shun it. It’s a sad indication we still have far to go. And yes I used that shamelessly against Timothy, but only for a little.

(steps down from soap box)

Charming. Great details, I saw the imagery very vividly with my minds eye. Great that every one aren't unfriendly or even hostile towards Timothy. Nice little piece, I liked this.

Like everyone else, I'm happy to see little Timothy find a friend. And it doesn't hurt that the one he found is a strapping big fellow, either.

I am curious about your choice of a title. Does it refer to what the ram was doing in the kitchen or to him and Timothy meeting? If the latter, I'm fascinated by your choosing to use the term 'leftovers' to describe these two.

Nice work!

Intended double meaning there. You’ll see in future stories but there are a few hints of what I intend for the two of them already.

And thanks.
