Slices Of Small Town Life Ch. 02

I thought it would be different characters in each chapter, so I was a little surprised by the repetition. Some odd elements. The investigators have a heartfelt discussion at the end, as if they cared about more than just collecting a check. Highly unlikely.

I expected different characters in this chapter

Somehow I was under the impression you would have different people interacting in the chapters and then tie their actions together in the final episode. So I'm not sure where this is going. At this point it's playing out like a typical LW story. Cheating wife, wronged husband seeking revenge. And the story is average at best, not something I've come to expect from your stories. We'll see where you go with this, but maybe my expectations are too high.

Thanks Q

Enjoying the story thus far.

the meeting of the two investigators added

a few questions. but not much more considering his friendships in the law enforcement communities. and the way he handled the Amanda situation.

when do we start to see the series of interconnected stories?

Not a tell

Random acts of kindness are in no way a tell to identify a sociopath, honestly that just sounds stupid, I've no idea where you've heard that garbage from.

A sociopath might act kind, that doesn't make them a sociopath, but instead whatever calculating purpose they have behind it does, the act itself can not be used as an indicator.

Most people who shows random acts of kindness, are just genuinely nice people that show it in different ways.

The truth there ^.

Random acts of kindness makes great camouflage for sociopaths.
Then when questioned the neighbors say "He's such a good neighbor", and not "He's a creepy guy that none of us trust".

Ted Bundy's neighbors said he was a pretty good neighbor.

So, writing the future story are you?

I'm enjoying the character as no saint, but a pretty solid man. It will take a disappointing twist to make Charlie into a fiend.
