Severed Ties ------->The current arc

[Hungrywolf]

That was actually pretty funny now that you mentioned it.

[Pravus]

....wait, what's that supposed to mean?

[Hungrywolf]

It means... he's a "little... festive".

"He prefers the company of men."

[Pravus]

Ah.....so he likes watching football then?

[ShannC]

Exactly Pravus. Look, I'm no homophobe at all but what is it with these gay guys and their behavior, huh? So much machismo, football games and beer swilling, always pushing people around, never bathing, burping and farting in public.. What's up with that? Oh, I could go on...

It's just like Homer Simpson once said.

"I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals FLAMING!"

*I don't*

[ShannC]

Hey Suburb, you've gotten better at drawing wimminz. Just wanted to say that...

[Pravus]

Heh, his mom looks so "Not this again."

[ShannC]

Heh, his mom looks so "Not this again."

Heh, yeah. Mother isn't impressed by self-starvation. Come back when you've got stab wounds.

Besides the characters and the well-paced narrative, the thing that keeps me hanging on to EOT is the question:

"What will cause Evan to break out of his denial?"

[Paul Escobar]

Ooh, update.
Evan's going on sarcasm and feigned indifference. Seems he still likes to think that not eating is not a problem.
Hmm, are nurses supposed to flirt with patients like that?

[TheSuburbanLetdown]

I dunno. I guess she's just being nice since he's the son of one of the head doctors there.

[Pravus]

Lol irony...

[Hungrywolf]

So immune when it comes to girls flirting with him, at least recently.

The indifference is strong in this one.

[ShannC]

"What will cause Evan to break out of his denial?"

Well. He's pretty much cornered now it seems. Whether it's enough to make him realise, hard to say.
Poor kid.

On the other hand, he might actually partially know what he's doing. And it's a scream for help of sorts. It can stem from many issues which have partly been hinted already. Family issues, sexual insecurity, deep guilt and so on. Isn't it plausible?

[Redcrow]

Hmm, are nurses supposed to flirt with patients like that?

I think it brightens the workday for them, if they get a young and cute patient.

I'm sure every young nurse with average or better looks has been clumsily hit upon by ugly and uncouth old bastards that fancy themselves as "colorful".

[ShannC]

She probably knows his father. Or maybe she regards Evan as a child and is teasing him a bit. Probably both.

A pretty odd way to behave otherwise.

Reminds me of my friend who went to urology and recieved a comment of approval for his nice trim... by a male nurse...
LOL wut?

[PortableNuke]

I dunno. I guess she's just being nice since he's the son of one of the head doctors there.

It's amazing what you won't do when you know it will get back to your parents.

Chatting up the customers is one of the perks of working in customer service plus it relaxes the customer.

[Pravus]

Lol I think that's a little more than reassuring the patient, if you ask me
