DOS Ch-227
Dennis sat slouched on his couch that Sunday afternoon. He needed something—anything—to kill time. The breakup with his girlfriend was still fresh, and the silence in his apartment only amplified the ache.He reached for the newspaper lying on the coffee table, flipping quickly to the entertainment section in search of a distraction. A bold headline caught his eye: ‘ set to cast its spell next week.’ Tempting, but Dennis didn’t feel like stepping out—not even for magic.He sighed. Why couldn’t…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-226
“Are you okay, Troy?” Chris Nolan asked worriedly as soon as he saw me inside my trailer. “I was worried sick when I heard you were in the hospital. We can postpone this part of the shoot for a few months if you’re unwell.”“Nah, I’m as good as I can be,” I said assuredly in my Joker voice. “And remember, I am Frank, not Troy.”Chris sighed. “Back to being your character, huh? And Gary was boasting that he stomped that part out of you.”I cackled maniacally before licking my lips.…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

I looked over at the modest house, about a half-hour’s drive from my parents’ place. The neighborhood was quite well-off, for a woman who, at one point, had been desperate enough for money to disparage me publicly.“Are you okay, Troy?” Paolo, my head of security, asked, his tone laced with concern. “We can go back and come here later if you want.”The way he kept scanning the area for potential threats made his true worry obvious: my safety if anyone recognized me.“No,” I shook my head. “I…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-14
“No,” I shook my head, firm but calm. “I have no intention of hiding my revenue. I’ll talk to an accountant, or maybe a tax lawyer, to structure my income better, but definitely not hiding from the IRS.” Michael leaned back on the couch, one arm draped lazily over the side as he shrugged. “Everybody does it, Noah,” he said in a casual tone. “That’s how all these Hollywood stars live their luxurious lives despite earning millions.” I frowned, mulling over his words for a bit. The…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-222
“Holy shit! That was great, baby,” I said with a grin before pulling Anna on top of me and planting a fierce kiss on her lips. As my hands slid down her back, she broke the kiss. “Stop right there. I’m not doing it again.” “What?” I asked innocently, pulling her hips closer. She rolled her eyes and shook her head. “I’m so sore from last night, I don't know how I'll walk anywhere. Not to mention, I’ve got a flight back to LA in a few hours. I need to get ready.” “You…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

The Hollywood Reporter – ★★★★☆ – Carina Chocano: “A deliriously funny coming-of-age riot that somehow balances dick jokes with genuine emotional depth. Troy Armitage proves he’s not just a dramatic powerhouse—he’s a comedic revelation. The script is the soul of the movie. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the writers are the true hero of the movie.”Variety – ★★★★★ – Mick LaSalle: “ isn’t just super good—it’s super great. A raunchy teen comedy with a heart, the film…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

October 2007, Kloves Residence, London“Do you realize how stupid that move was?” Mum asked, her voice steeped in disappointment. “I thought you were better than this, Troy. Isolating yourself for the better part of the year is not cool.”I looked across the room at the other two occupants—Dad and Evan.The latter had wrapped up the joint production of the first two movies while I was away, and was now back in London, enjoying front-row seats to the lecture my parents had decided to deliver.“Do…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-13
The plan Randal had come up with looked good on the surface. Genius, even. Take two immature teens who were very clearly attracted to each other and use one to get the other to do what you wanted. There was just one thing Randal hadn’t accounted for: my business savviness. Sure, I wasn’t some Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos-level mastermind, but I liked to think I knew enough about the world to see through schemes like that. The little act Randal and I pulled back on the street, him pretending to leave…- 165.3 K • Ongoing
