littlegala Posted July 23 Report Posted July 23 Spoiler Question 11: Alright so I think we all already assessed our guys friendship with Tyler and found it to maybe not be the healthiest. Thoughts on the fact that even Josh was suprised by the fact he has been screening the people he brings home for knowing about Josh's criminal Dad? We know he loves him dearly so do you think subconsciously he knew Tyler was capable of this sort of kindness? Does it change any of your initial thoughts? Any guesses on Tyler's involvement in Josh's life moving forward? A- I think it makes Tyler more human and a more well rounded character. He certainly seems smarter than he seems to be..But I’m afraid he might feel betrayed by Josh’s actions by his behavior as a masked man . Question 12: Let's explore Josh's father for a second. We know by now that his father has done some pretty aweful things and that Josh is desperate to not be like him. My question is, is he really? I mean he says he wants to avoid, even going so far as to never touch an animal prior to Alys cat, but we see him gleeful about "stalking and games of deception being so much godamn fun" as he puts it. What do you think this says about him now and about his future self? Any thoughts on whether or not being a monster is transferable? Could this actually be healing him and avoiding future twists in his nature? A-His behavior is quite disturbing but I think it’s totally harmless. I don’t think being a monster is transferable because I’ve been through so much with bio dad ( he isn’t the greatest person) and I could be a certain way but I’m not. Maybe this is healing healing Josh. I don’t know. Question 13: So in chapter 11 Aly states she knows Josh is the Faceless Man. Do you think this is realistic? What do YOU think tipped her off? And as a self reflection do you think you would know in her place? Bonus points if you have any ideas on what Josh could have done better to throw her off. A- I don’t think it’s realistic. It should’ve taken a little bit more to convince her that he was the faceless man. Maybe more clues as they were talking and giving off certain vibes. If you go by her reasoning as to how she knew already was the texts. I don’t think he could’ve done anything to throw her off. She basically made up her mind when he opened the door.Lol Question 14: So in our book our people are HOT. Like physically attractive, it is mentioned many times that they dont just find eachother attractive but are objectively hot. Do you think their "arrangement" only works because of that? Do you think there is a possible correlation between extreme looks and extreme play? Confidence and such seems a key component. Or do you think this is just how the romance book world plays out? A- I don’t think she would be into any of this if he didn’t look the way he did lol. Question 15: Here we see our masked man hesitating on annialating our girl in bed and instead making her breakfast. We are seeing that this is already much much more than sex for him. When do you think that happened exactly because this is early in a mostly sexual based relationship? Also do you think our female lead harbors the same extra feelings or is it just physical for her at this point? A-I think the day he drove her home in the winter snow storm was when he felt more about her. Because I don’t believe he would’ve done what he did if it was purely physical. I think she’s getting there. 1
PigtailPrincess Posted July 24 Author Report Posted July 24 @littlegala @SquirtleSquad @Aikko Here are your questions for chapters 13-17!! Spoiler Question 16: So here we have some INTENSE play where Aly admits to feeling fear and excitement. In your own words what do you think are the key differences in this play and true fear of a stalker? What makes it real enough to scare but not to terrify? Question 17: In the hospital we meet our horrible horrible rapist. I have a couple questions on him. She talks about his eyes, about the dead and creepy alive at the same time look. Do you think this kind of monster is made or born? And at the end of the day since legal means havnt worked, do you think vigilante justice is justice at all? Question 18: Josh has made several comments by now about enjoying Aly being the somewhat dominant one even saying he would like her to tie him up and that it is a bit unusual for him. Do you think that when Doms are in love they enjoy everything they may not normally? Or is this just Josh discovering another side of himself? Question 19: Josh seems very affected, even physically ill, over an accidental murdering. Are you suprised after all the bravado talk? Thpughtz on his reaction compared to Alys? Also are we all caught up enough that we could do chapters 18-22? We are nearing the end so be on the lookout for a pole to decide a time for final discussions!!! Can't wait to talk with all the NNC members in 40 min!!! 1

Aikko Posted July 30 Report Posted July 30 Okay, I’m a bit behind but am catching up! I finished two more chapters this morning already, so I should be back on track by this evening! Josh and Aly are total psycho couple goals. 😈💜 1
PigtailPrincess Posted July 31 Author Report Posted July 31 Im gonna give everyone a few extra days to finish up the chapters so I will assign new pages Sunday!!! Also be on the lookout for a pole to try and decide when we will do our final talk on the book. 1
PigtailPrincess Posted August 4 Author Report Posted August 4 Questions for chapters 18-20 friends! Is everyone caught up??? Spoiler Question 20: So Aly says she wasnt affected by the death of Brad because she "sees death all the time" do you think this is normal for someone in her profession? Or may Aly be more messed up that Josh? Any guesses if she will get less in control as the book goes on? Question 21: Would you have brought Brad's body to Uncle Nico? If not what would you have done instead (feel free to use all your true crime knowledge 🤣) Question 22: So once again a question about our gal Aly. She helps kills someone, has knife sex, has mafia family, and still seems the most thrown by hearing Josh has a serial killer father. Thoughts on this? Question 23: Aly jokes about how she would stalk Josh now if he tried to leave. What do you think would happen in reality if Josh changed his mind? Question 24: Of all the things Uncle Nico could ask for, why do you think he picked dinner with Aly once a month?
