Aside from all the giggling I did while I was writing it, what I found most awkward when I was originally writing it in third person is that I felt like I had to keep using the characters' names to make it clear who was doing what to whom because it was confusing with only male pronouns - he/him/his. I haven't written that many sex scenes, but when I have, it's been with a guy and girl, so it's easy to describe what's happening without using their names in every sentence. It was a lot better once I switched to first person so I could use "I" instead of "he" for Howie, but yeah... it was still pretty awkward LOL. The emotional part was a lot less uncomfortable to write, but I guess it's always been that way for me, even with het relationships.

Yes, it's a little awkward for me too the all "he/him/his" and it's not that different for when I write in Italian. I always read those parts a lot of times to be sure that it's understable who is doing what. Usually, I tend to write that scene from one only pov (depending on the situation) so I don't have too many problems.

I think the fact that Nick has finally grown up and settled down helps a lot. It's probably just a lot easier for he and Brian to relate to each other than it was when Brian was getting married and having a kid and Nick was still running around getting himself into trouble. I think that's where their age difference was most apparent, when Brian became an adult and Nick was still being a kid.

I agree! And it's giving me warm fuzzies! They all seem to have that younger days quality about them lately but yet with the maturity that makes their behavior more cute and less obnoxious!
RokofAges75:
Yeah, exactly! Brian and Nick both still act like kids, but in a cute way, not a bad way.

Okay new question, I know we have asked this one before but since we have new people participating in threads with kind of unusual usernames, I'm going to ask it again.
How did you come up with your usernames for this board and your pen name for AC if they are different?
