Steamy Saturday
Twilight lives of talent & torment.
Man-for-man in the world of dance.
The ones who call themselves "strange."
They drift into a pastel world of fey relationships.
Men who are not quite men.
Hansome, desperate, twisted, born to dance.
The world of dance, as depicted in numerous media iterations, is just bathed in steam! Very often in queer steam. And so it is with Mr. Ballerina by American writer, dancer, and film actor Ronn Marvin (1919-1998), published in Evanston, Illinois by Regency Books (another William Hamling imprint) in 1961. Despite the genre and its inevitable tragic ending, Mr. Ballerina is actually fairly well-written, with authentic dialogue and believable depictions of gay relationships.
The story centers on dancer Dana Bates who works under dance director Lee Apollo at Hemisphere. Dana's lover is musician Ralph Matthews, who is convinced that he is probably straight, and that it was actually his mother and then Dana, playing on his sexual needs, who turned him into a homosexual. Ralph seeks a way out and turns to a woman who herself is trying to rescue her mother from a lesbian relationship. Ralph breaks up with Dana, punches him in the nose (breaking it), has sex with the woman and proposes to her. Meanwhile, Dana barely escapes a police raid on an all-male party at Lee Apollo's place but is outed to the police by some jealous flames, leading to the tragic ending that we present above.
. . . everyone has to pay eventually. Some way or other, everyone pays. Now for Dana Bates -- Mr. Ballerina, Pride of the Ballet, Princess of the Bed -- it was his turn at last.
In an October 1961 review in The Ladder, Barbara Grier (as Gene Damon) laments the negative aspects of the story, but praises its author:
A rather sad look at the very gay world of the ballet, according to Mr. Marvin, exclusively peopled with homosexual boys and an occasional homosexual girl. Basically another of the conflict stories, in which one character fights against his homosexuality. The San Francisco background is very colorful and the presence of major lesbian characters will make this of interest to Ladder readers. A fairly good first novel. Mr. Marvin will bear watching.
Ronn Marvin began his career as a dancer, but a foot injury ended that line of work, so he turned to writing novels and television scripts. He also appeared in four movies during the 1940s: The North Star (1943); Step Lively (1944); George White's Scandals (1945); and he was Pulaski in the 1947 film Gas House Kids Go West. The cover art for Mr. Ballerina is credited to "Dillon." While we have found no direct evidence, based on the characteristic style, we believe this to be the legendary illustrating duo Leo and Diane Dillon.

Last year I tried to make an 80s cover for one of my favorite fairytale books, Shannon Hale’s “The Goose Girl” and I liked some of what I did but not all, so I tried again and I think this one is much better!

looking to join a group with a connection or two in place? come join me over at @coloradohq!
vince gagliardi (milo ventimiglia)
VINCE GAGLIARDI is looking for THEIR SIBLINGS (3/5). they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of ANY FITTING FC 30-40, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (vince is the oldest of the six gagliardi kids. they grew up traveling the us with their parents who told fortunes at a traveling carnival. they were homeschooled as children and grew up very close to each other. as the eldest, vince helped raise his siblings. whether or not any of the siblings are psychic can be utp, but vince did inherit the abilities and worked in carnivals growing up and still works as a psychic now, owning his own shop in town. after getting married, he settled down in denver with his wife and they started a family, though she left him after their second son was born. after their divorce, he started dating again, and after a few months of dating a woman named stella, they found out they were pregnant. his daughter was born a year ago but due to complications from the birth, his girlfriend passed away. he’s been in town for about 13 years now. how long the siblings have been in denver  can be utp, feel free to run any ideas or questions by me too! ) 
zane neptune (cody christian)
ZANE NEPTUNE is looking for THEIR BOSS AT NIGHT AND DINE. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of LISA ANN WALTER, CARLA GUGINO, MARISA TOMEI, ANTHONY MACKIE, JASON SUDEKIS, DON LEE, ANY FC 40+, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (this person is zane’s boss at the diner, he started out as a busboy and worked his way up to being a line cook. he’s worked at the diner for quite some time and the boss has kind of taken him under their wing and is like a parental figure to him!)
angelo cortes estrada (miguel gomez)
ANGELO CORTES ESTRADA is looking for THEIR ONLINE DATE. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of NICO TORTORELLA, ASIA KATE DILLON, SACHA DHAWAN, RAHUL KOHLI, MONICA RAYMUND, JESSICA MATTEN, MAX THIERIOT, ANY FC 34+, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (angelo and wc have been talking through a dating app for a few weeks/couple of months now. he probably doesn’t have a profile pic or it’s something like his abs but somehow wc still wanted to keep talking to him. they have a bit of a connection but haven’t made the leap to meet in person yet, but that’s gonna change! this doesn’t have to end up anything super serious, we can play off of chemistry and see how things go.)
ANGELO CORTES ESTRADA is looking for THEIR AA SPONSOR. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of STERLING K BROWN, AMY ACKER, MATT CZUCHRY, WENTWORTH MILLER, SARAH PAULSON, LANA PARRILLA, EDGAR RAMIREZ, DAVID HARBOUR, ANY FC 40+, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (as part of his parole, angelo attends aa meets. he isn’t very good at attending them and isn’t really taking it too seriously (he’s still drinking) but this person would have confidence in him and support him, probably calling/texting to check up on him when he misses meetings, etc)
ANGELO CORTES ESTRADA is looking for THEIR ESTRANGED SIBLINGS (0/2). they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of ANY FITTING FC (MIGUEL GOMEZ IS COLOMBIAN SO THE WC FCS SHOULD BE EITHER COLUMBIAN OR HALF COLUMBIAN IF WE WANT TO DO HALF SIBLINGS. AGES SHOULD BE BETWEEN 27-31 AND 32-36 RESPECTIVELY. SOME SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE CARLOS VALDES, ALYSSA DIAZ, DIANE GUERRERO, ISABELLA GOMEZ), but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (a lot of this can be utp, but the basic information is the cortes’ grew up in los angeles. their family was very proper/well mannered but angelo wasn’t, which caused a lot of problems for them. angelo was the black sheep of the family and was kicked out when he was 18, which was when he moved to boulder. shortly after, he was involved in a drunk driving accident that resulted in the death of one person and he was sent to jail for a 20 year sentence. he was recently released and moved to denver. somehow the siblings managed to track him down and are now trying to rebuild a relationship with him.)
norah rajan (summer bishil)
NORAH RAJAN is looking for THEIR EX/BABY DADDY. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of KIOWA GORDON, HENRY GOLDING, DAVID CASTANEDA, REGE-JEAN PAGE, RAYMOND ABLACK, UTP (FCOC PREFERRED) AGED 34-36, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (wc was your typical bad boy/f*ckboy. he and norah met in high school, he was everything she wasn’t, and she fell hard for him. she gave birth to their son, omar, at age 15 and their daughter, anya, at age 18. their relationship has always been rocky, lots of fighting and all of that, and he’s basically unreliable/in and out of their lives. norah still loves him even though all he does is break her heart, so this could be really angsty if you want it to be!)
NORAH RAJAN is looking for THEIR BEST FRIEND. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of JESSE RATH, MARTIN SENSMEIER, LUDI LIN, MANNY JACINTO, YAHYA ABDUL-MATEEN II, RAHUL KOHLI, SACHA DHAWAN, UTP (FCOC PREFERRED) AGED 33-37, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (wc and norah have been best friends since grade school. he’s always supported her and at some point moved in with her after high school (or college) to help her with the kids. he’s more of a father figure to them than their actual dad. if the chemistry is right, i’m all for a friends to lovers, it’s always been you sort of situation!)
esme loomis (mame-anna diop)
ESME LOOMIS is looking for THEIR DAUGHTER’S FATHER. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of MICHAEL TREVINO, RAYMOND ABLACK, ALEXANDER KOCH, AARON TVEIT, GREY DAMON, LUKE PASQUALINO, ANY FC 33+, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! (so to preface this, esme definitely has a habit of sleeping around, so she isn’t 100% of who the father of her daughter is, but for the sake of the connection, it’s going to be the wc! around ten years ago, the two slept together and esme ended up getting pregnant, though she didn’t find out until late in the pregnancy. I think it’d work best if wc is from denver (like esme) and they left for some reason and have just returned recently, the reason as to why and all that can be utp! their daughter, alicia, just turned ten years old and is pretty much the spitting image of him. )
ESME LOOMIS is looking for FWB. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of ANY FC 33+ FCOC PREFERRED, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! ( esme and wc have been fwb for on and off for some time. esme usually hits them up whenever she’s feeling lonely, etc. wc has developed feelings for her and wants more, but esme isn’t there/isn’t ready to admit that she might feel the same. this definitely has the potential for some fun feels/angst/drama, so bring it on! )
ESME LOOMIS is looking for THEIR CHILDHOOD BEST FRIEND. they’d like the faceclaim to possibly be someone along the lines of DEV PATEL, KIOWA GORDON, HARVEY GUILLEN, JAY HAYDEN, ANDREW KOJI, ANY FC 33-38ISH, but you must reach out to DADIISM to find out more! ( honestly most of the character can be your creation/utp! esme was definitely “one of the guys”/a tomboy growing up, so wc would’ve been her best friend. wc should either be from denver or have moved there at some point during school aged years (before the age of 18). they’ve been close ever since they met and wc would be like an uncle to esme’s ten year old daughter, alicia.

Growing Together - Chapter Fourteen - Learning to Fly
6:00 AM
When I wake up in the morning, love
And the sunlight hurts my eyes
And something without warning, love
Bears heavy on my mind
Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day-
My hand flew blindly to my phone, shutting up Bill Withers for good. Victor stirred beside me.
“Why do you have your alarm set for so early?” He asked sleepily as he pulled me closer.
“It’s time to get up.” I kissed his closed eyelids. “Chop-chop, Mr. Lee!”
Victor turned to grab his phone.
“It’s six AM.” He squinted at his screen.
“Exactly. Time for your morning run.” I beamed at him, uncharacteristically full of energy. “I’ll get things ready, you don’t need to worry.”
“I’m not running today.” He grabbed my waist, trapping me in bed. “Sleep a little longer, we’ll get ready together.”
“No, I woke up early so you could run, and you are going to run.” I squirmed in his arms. “It’s something you like and it’s good for you, you shouldn’t give up on that just because you are a father now. Besides…” I pinched his stomach. “I don’t want a chubby hubby.”
“Ouch, quit it!” He grabbed both my wrists, trying to keep me still. “I’m not chubby!”
“You will be if you don’t run!” I started pushing him out of bed with my body. “Come on, Victor, it’s sunny outside, we’re both up, there is no excuse for you not to go-”
I heard my husband suddenly leave the bed with a thump. I looked over the edge of the bed, finding him lying on the floor, an annoyed expression on his face.
“Happy now?”
7:30 AM
“We’re ready for breakfast!” I announced as I entered the kitchen with a fully dressed Owen, who was giggling with my shenanigans. “What’s for the menu, chef?”
“French toast for the beautiful lady and the short gentleman.” Victor played along, ceremoniously presenting a large plate with golden steamy french toast. “Let me get the syrup and the sliced fruit.”
“What are you having?” I grabbed the plate from his hands.
“Egg whites and fruit.” He got his plate of egg whites and sat on the table to eat. “My wife says I’m gaining weight.”
“I was joking! Have some french toast with us.” I motioned to serve him some.
“Absolutely not!” He frowned, covering his plate. “My wife is unsatisfied, I need to please her.”
“Fine, have it your way then.” I started eating, feeling somewhat guilty about my joke.
“How is your breakfast, Owen?” Victor asked. “Do you want more strawberries? Or syrup?”
“No, Sir.” Owen blushed. “It’s good. Thank you, Sir.”
“You don’t have to call me Sir, Owen.” Victor spoke gently. “Just Victor. Or Vic, like Andy does.”
“I’m sorry, Sir.” Owen looked down, uncomfortable. “I mean, I’m sorry, Victor.”
Victor pursed his lips, letting out a heavy sigh. I held his hand under the table. It was clearly still hard for Owen to be comfortable with him.
8:30 AM
“Do you have everything you need?” I asked Owen as we stood by the school door. “Your lunch? Your sculpture?”
“Yes, I do.” Owen beamed at me, his red curls bouncing as he looked up. “I put my playdoh ant in the plastic box you gave me, so it won’t break.”
“Well done.” I brushed his curls slightly. “Have a good day at school. Don’t forget to eat your snack.”
“I will!” He wrapped his arms around my waist. “Have a good day at work, Andy!” He turned to leave.
I noticed Victor fidget slightly by my side.
“Hey, what about Victor?” I teased. “Doesn’t he deserve a good day at work too?”
“Yes.” Owen slowly came back, extending his small hand for Victor to shake. “Have a good day.” He looked down. The look on Victor’s face at that moment broke my heart.
“You too, Owen.” Victor hesitated for a moment, wondering if he could hug his son. He touched his shoulder instead. “I’m sure your teacher will love your ant sculpture.”
“Thank you, Sir.”
The car ride to work was a silent one, as I watched my husband lost in thought, his jaw clenching occasionally.
“Vic-”
“I don’t know how to get through to him.” Victor blurted out. “It’s been a month, and he still doesn't like me. I don’t know what to do anymore.”
“Hey, you know what Miss Dillon said.” I caressed his shoulder. “It’s normal for adopted kids to be suspicious, especially if they had a negative experience before. Give him time, he will see the wonderful man you are, I’m sure.”
“Maybe you’re right.” He sighed. “I just need to be patient.”
“Do you want me to talk to him?”
“No, I will do this.” He shook his head. “I am his father, it’s my job to build a connection. I will find a way.”
10:40 AM
“Ok, guys, what else do we have today?” I asked my management team.
“I got the new report from Parker Company today.” Diane handed me a file. “I still have to check those numbers, but the profit is way below expected.”
I opened the file, reading it carefully. I couldn’t believe my eyes.
“No, this is significantly below the stipulated in the contract. They are going to lose the investment.” I flipped through the pages of the report. “They invested in new machinery last month, they have clients, they should have made a lot more than what’s in here!”
“I’ll call them today, inquiring about these values.” Diane offered.
“No.” I got up from my chair, closing my laptop. “I’ll call Mr. Stone right away. They need to file a correct report in two days, LFG will reevaluate the contract by then. Last month was already terrible for them. I need to set this straight.” I walked to the door, addressing my team again. “You guys take a break. We’ll talk later. Kenny, bring me some coffee to my office. I need all the caffeine I can have.”
The call to Parker Company took longer than expected. Mr Stone was away on business and would only return the following day, so he left his wife taking care of the company affairs. She knew very little about the investment, let alone the software we were using to report the results. His assistant was even worse, taking forever to get me simple pieces of information. Twenty minutes later, and after a lot of time on hold, my patience was wearing thin. Something wasn’t right. I hoped it wasn’t what I thought it was.
I heard a knock. It was Kenny, my assistant.
“Mr. Lee just called to see if you were ready for the Cooper meeting.” He announced, nervously.
“Crap!” I jumped in my chair. “Tell him I need five minutes more, just finishing a call.”
With this new ordeal, I had totally forgotten about the meeting with Cooper and Sons at LFG. Yet again, despite whatever progress Goldman had made before, the negotiations were at an impasse. Jason Cooper was a very traditional man, and saw these new fancy robotic companies, as he called them, as the enemy. So naturally, when Victor told him what he had to do to secure the investment, Cooper backed away. The CEO then asked me if I could present the investment project myself, to see if I could get through the old man.
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Lee, I can’t find the file you asked for…” Stone’s assistant came on the phone again.
“It’s alright, I’ll call later.” I hung up, checking the notification on my phone. A text from my dear husband saying You’re 10 minutes late .
I bolted to the elevator. Ten minutes was enough to have one of those grumpy men fuming and leaving the room. If I wanted to even have a chance of discussing the investment, I’d have to be quick.
The elevator opened with a ding. Goldman was already waiting for me.
“You are-”
“Late!” I interrupted as I ran to the conference room door, Goldman following me. “I know, I know. Plug this into the screen, will you?” I handed him my laptop as I knocked briefly, opening the door. My husband threw me a deadly stare.
“Mr. Cooper!” I extended my hand for him to shake. “I’m sorry for the delay, I was caught up in a meeting. I’m Andrea Lee, pleased to meet you.”
“Likewise. Jason Cooper, ma’am.” He shook my hand with a smile. “Let’s hear what you have to say, your husband says you’ll explain things better. Although I have to say I’m not senile, I understood it correctly the first time.” He gave Victor a sour look.
I turned on my laptop and began a more interactive presentation, allowing Mr. Cooper to pose questions as I spoke, keeping an open and amicable attitude. It seemed to work, as the old man lost the frown on his face, and started speaking more openly as well, even daring to ask how someone like Victor had nailed a sweet girl like me. Victor kept his poker face the entire time, only a wife’s trained eye like mine could see he was outraged.
“You know, my sons are the ones insisting on this, telling me this is an opportunity for growth. But I built this company with my own two hands, and the final say is mine. This is a family company, some people have been working with us for decades. I will say yes if you come and visit us, feel the spirit, see if your indications are really appropriate for us.”
“Andrea is a very busy woman, she-” Victor chimed in.
“I would love to.” I interrupted Victor. “I will check my schedule and make room to visit you this week.”
Pleased, Mr. Cooper shook my hand.
“Then it looks like we may have a deal. Bring the contract with you. I will sign it on the day of your visit.”
12:30 PM
“Mr. Lee asked for you to go to his office.” Kenny announced, panicked.
I was up to my neck in files. Not only did I have to study strategies for the incoming companies, I also had the Parker ordeal to figure out.
“Did he tell you what he wanted?” I asked, my eyes still glued to the file in front of me.
“No, I didn’t dare ask him.” He confessed. “Could you just call him? If you don't, he’ll call again and get angry at me.”
“Why are you so scared of him? He’s not that bad.” I took my phone, noticing I had several missed calls from Victor. “Damn it, I forgot to unmute it.”
“I know he is your husband, but he is scary.” Kenny gasped, suddenly realizing how honest he had been. “I’m sorry, this was out of line, please don’t tell him I said that.”
“It’s ok, Kenny, relax.” I chuckled as I pressed call on my phone. “Go have lunch.”
Victor answered on the first ring.
“I have lunch for you. Come up.”
“It’s ok, I’ll have something later, I’m really busy.” I took another file, opening it. “Thanks anyway.”
“You’ll forget to eat, I know. Fifteen minutes, that’s all I ask. Then you’ll resume work with fresher eyes.”
1:00 PM
“You need to go easy on Kenny. I think you scare him.” I mentioned, poking a piece of steak with my fork.
“I merely told him to do his job. What’s so scary about that?” Victor didn’t even look up from his salad.
“Maybe try not to sound so… Imperative.” I pointed the piece of steak towards my husband’s mouth. “Do you want to try it?”
“I can’t.” He moved away from my fork. “I’m on a diet.”
“Still with that?” I gave him an annoyed look. “I was only joking! You look fine!”
“If it was me telling you to lose some weight, even jokingly, how would you react?” He leaned back in his chair, folding his hands on his lap.
Damn. He got me there.
“I would have your head.” I admitted. “I’m sorry.”
“Since your head is still very much intact, can we agree that I am nicer than you?” He smiled mischievously.
“No, we can’t.” I closed the box containing my food and put it aside. “Because, despite my poor choice of words, all I wanted was for my husband to resume an old habit he enjoys. My intentions were good.”
“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” He teased, setting his salad box aside as well.
“I said I’m sorry already. I didn’t mean it, you are still very attractive to me.” I got up from my chair, sitting on his lap. His arms immediately circled around me.
“Is that so?” His tone lowered, reading my expression.
“You know, sometimes it’s difficult for me to focus on meetings, looking at you in this impeccable suit, knowing exactly what’s underneath it.” My hands roamed his chest and abs through his shirt. He took a sharp breath, his grey eyes darkening. “Makes me want to do things.”
“And what things would you like to do?” He pulled me closer, his nose touching my neck as he breathed in my perfume.
“Right now?” I used my bedroom voice.
“Mhm.” His lips were already on my skin, making me shiver in delight.
“Nothing. I only have 15 minutes for lunch and I already spared thirty.” I suddenly got up from his lap, leaving him disoriented for a moment. “Thanks for lunch, handsome.” I pecked a very confused Victor on the lips.
“You are evil.” He smiled, even more enticed. “I’ll make you pay for that later.”
“Stop being petty with the diet thing and I’ll pay you double.” I winked as I left.
6:40 PM
“So there’s no explanation for the low profit?” I skimmed through the files again.
“Not one that I can find.” Diane sat across from me, looking tired. “And Stone is only returning tomorrow, his assistant-”
“Is useless, I know.” I threw the files on the table. “That’s it, I’m going over tomorrow to check it out myself. Kenny, book a flight to Creekwood for first thing in the morning.”
“What do you think is happening?” Diane questioned. “Embezzlement?”
“Or some debt they didn’t report and are trying to pay off with LFG money.” I sighed. “I don’t know. I’ll find out tomorrow.”
Someone knocked on the conference room door.
“Sorry to interrupt, Andrea. Mr. Lee is outside, waiting for you.”
“Go home, I’ll stay behind and try to make sense of this for a little longer.” I got up from my chair. “I just need to tell my husband I’ll be home late. See you tomorrow.”
8:20 PM
No matter how many times I looked at those files, I couldn’t find the mistake. In the meantime, Mr. Stone had returned my many calls, and I informed him I would be at his company first thing in the morning. Despite his confusion, he agreed. Giving up on the problem momentarily, I took an Uber home.
I found Victor in the kitchen cooking  as Owen set the table.
“Andy!” Owen came to hug me, looking relieved to see me.
“Hello, my little bug, how was your day?” I hugged him back. “Did your teacher like your sculpture?”
“She loved it! She said it was the best presentation she’s ever seen! I even got a smiley face!” Owen answered enthusiastically. “I’ll show you, it’s in my room! I’ll go get it!”
I chuckled, seeing him so excited. Victor left the pots and plates and came to me, hugging me from behind.
“Don’t I get a kiss?” He whispered in my ear.
“I’m sorry.” I turned to him. “Yes, you get a kiss.” Our lips touched for a moment. “How was it with Owen?”
“He spent the rest of the afternoon in his room, playing.” Victor frowned. “I got him to come out to set the table.”
“Give it time, you’ll grow on him.” I caressed his chest over the black apron he was wearing. “You grew on me.”
“It took me months to grow on you.” Victor returned to plating the food. “So, did you find what’s happening with the Parker Company?”
“Yes, about that.” I grimaced, knowing Victor wouldn’t like what I had to say one bit. “I need to fly to Creekwood tomorrow, first thing in the morning. I need to figure out what’s happening exactly. And I’ll take the chance and drive to Ferriston the very next day, to visit the Cooper’s.”
“You’re travelling to Creekwood?” He tensed. “We need you here, send someone else.”
“The only person I trust to do the job is Diane, and I can’t ask that of her. She has a newborn.” I filled the glasses on the table with water. “I have to go myself.”
“You just adopted a child.” Victor retorted. “They need you at the company. Besides, I don’t like you travelling by yourself, there has to be a better way.”
“It’s only for two days, I’ll be back the day after tomorrow in time for dinner.” I looked my husband in the eyes, only to find concern in them.
“At least get that teenager assistant of yours to go with you. You shouldn’t travel alone.”
“He’s twenty-five.” I shot him a flat face.
“Yet he gets all flustered whenever I call him.” He shook his head. “No, Andrea, find another way. I don't want you to go.”
“I don’t remember asking you.” Victor’s disapproval was starting to annoy me. He flew on business every time. Why couldn’t I do the same? “It’s my job, it’s what needs to be done.”
“You’ll still go, knowing that I don’t want you to?” Victor’s disbelief couldn’t conceal the hurt in his eyes.
“I wish you were on board with this, but yes.” I said in a firm voice. “When you hired me as your CEO, it wasn’t for me to act like it only when it’s convenient to you. This is my job, my responsibility, and I think it’s the right thing to do. I’m going.”
10 PM
“You’re leaving tomorrow?” Owen shyly asked as I put his clothes for the next day on the dresser.
“Yes, and coming back the day after tomorrow before dinner.” I explained, refolding a sweater, and placing it in the drawer. “Victor will be with you.”
“For two whole days?” He seemed to panic, clearly displeased with this new turn of events.
“Come on, Bug.” I sat on his bed, ruffling his curls as he sat beside me. “Victor is not that bad. He’s a good guy.”
“I don’t know.” Owen looked down. “He looks angry all the time. He was angry at you at dinner, I could tell.”
“That’s grownup stuff you don’t need to worry about. Trust me, he will get over it soon. He’s very nice, really. Now, time to go to sleep.”
Owen climbed into bed, careful not to untuck his comforter.
“Do you want a bedtime story?” I asked.
“I can read one myself.” He made a face at me, his cute dimples showing.
“This story is not in any books we own.” I spoke theatrically. “Two years ago, I met this girl, she was roughly your age, her name was Molly. She was the one that told me this very special story about an ogre.”
“An ogre?” Owen was suddenly interested. “How big was he?”
“He was huge!” I played along, happy that I caught his interest. “He was so big he couldn’t walk straight, he always had to mind the houses and the trees beneath him, or else he would crush them all with a single step. And he had this deep voice that sounded through the entire valley and scared the animals, making birds fly off in a frenzy and bunnies return to their holes. The villagers were also terrified of him, and they would scurry into their homes as they felt the earth shake with the ogre’s footsteps. Sometimes the ogre would go to the village’s school and scare the children.”
“He liked to eat children?” The little boy’s eyes went wide.
“He never ate any of them, but they were really afraid of him!” I opened my eyes wide for dramatic effect. “Until one day, when the ogre showed up at the school’s playground. His deep voice scared every child there, except for one. A four-year-old red-haired boy, named Owen.”
“What did he do?” Owen gasped.
“Well, all the children went back inside crying, but Owen stood strong. He said, ‘An ogre will not bully me! I will show him I am not afraid, and then he will see that it’s useless to scare us with his heavy footsteps and deep voice!’ The boy stood in the playground, facing the ogre with incredible bravery. Then something amazing happened.”
“What happened?” Owen jumped in his bed, completely engrossed in my story. “Did he fight the ogre with his sword?”
“No, he didn't need to.” I shrugged. “The ogre kneeled before the boy, and puddles of water appeared by the boy’s feet. The ogre was crying.”
“He was sad?” Owen’s face fell, sadness taking over.
“Well, although the ogre was scary, he wasn’t mean at all.” I spoke in a sad voice as well. “Every time he would leave his gigantic cave, it was hoping to make a new friend. But he could never do it, because everyone would run away from him. The boy understood the gigantic creature and offered to be his friend. They played together, and the ogre taught him the secrets of the world, how to tame dragons and how the world looked beautiful and small from above. They remained friends, and when the boy grew up to be a man, the ogre followed him in many adventures, defeating evil creatures, and finding hidden treasures.”
Owen stared at me with wide eyes, the story sinking into him.
“Victor is like that ogre, isn’t he?” He looked down. “I’m that little boy, all I need to do is give him a chance to show that he’s nice.”
“Such a smart young man we have here!” I tickled his tummy, making him laugh. “Ok, make yourself comfortable, I’m going to tell Victor you are ready for bed.”
10:45 PM
The silence filled our bedroom as I packed the bag for my impromptu two-day trip. My husband was in bed, reading his book, obviously still upset with me, not dignifying my presence with a single word.
“Are you going to give me the silent treatment until I leave?” I leaned on the doorframe leading to the closet. “I don’t want to leave you in the middle of a fight.”
Victor placed his book on the nightstand with a sigh.
“I’m not giving you the silent treatment.”
“I don’t understand, you travel on business all the time.” I sat beside him, pushing the glasses up on his nose. “Why is it so bad that I do the same?”
“I don’t like to have you this far from me.” He sighed. “I’ll reschedule my appointments and go with you.” He grabbed his phone, ready to call Goldman.
“ You can’t go, who will take care of Owen?” I held his hand lovingly. “Besides, when I send you the signed contract, you need to make sure everything is in order and put it in motion before Cooper decides otherwise. Not to mention it’s investment revaluation week. Goldman can’t do it all on his own. I know it and you know it.”
“What if something happens? What if you have some kind of setback and I’m not there to help?” He squeezed my hands tight, pulling me closer. “I’ll worry.”
“There’s nothing to worry about!” I looked into his eyes, pleading. “It’s just for two days. What could possibly go wrong?”
Victor pulled me into a tight hug.
“Two days, not a second more.” He spoke firmly into my year. “In two days, I have you back in my arms.”
“You have my word.” I kissed his chest. “Two days.”

My girlfriend asked me to make her a list of works of fantasy and science fiction so should could feel keyed into references when they come up in conversation. She wanted to feel more grounded in these genres, which she likes, but hasnt made the effort to be on top of everything.
I was happy to compile the most important names, but told her it couldn’t be a short list because recognizing the works of today means honoring their origins, which goes way back into our past. 
What’s below is my best effort to include what I assess to be the most culturally relevant becoming, tempering my favorites, and trying to keep it from being totally overwhelming. I’ve left off works from the past five to ten years because it can take a span of time before we're aware the effects new ideas may have. Felt like sharing here in case you or your friends want a crash course on the bedrock of our imagined landscape. I do try to be globally aware, however this list will reflect my bias as a white, straight, male who grew up in the States. And as this is an ongoing conversation between her and myself, I wanted to be able to vouch for the contents.
