Can you send me that link you speak of? Will I be able to figure it out? lol

We've got to get the gang on Justin's side here and be his safe haven....

I've been wanting to read this story for awhile but never had the time until now. So far, I love it. The bond between Brian and Justin is very touching and I like how possessive and protective they get over each other. More please! TAG

PS. Hope you enjoy the online writing thing. It works wonderfully for me. If you're going to be in your story on a specific night let me know and I'll pop in!

Hey Annie!!! Another fabulous chapter. I was about to start channeling Justin if just ONE more person interrupted me while I was reading again! LOL

Anyway, I'm really enjoying the dynamic of Brian and Justin throughout this fic. I would definitely love to brainstorm on this one. I don't have much experience in this genre but I'm always up for trying new experiences! Happy Writing!

Author's Response:

Hey, Nichelle! I could definitely use your input on how to progress to climaxing dramatic scenes! I will let you know when I write the new chapter. I am starting on that novel and I honestly have you to thank for that due to you bringing up NaNoWriMo. Maybe we should brainstorm at the end of the month then? We'll figure it out! Thanks again!

I'm liking how Ted is running interference for Brian.  Wonder how everyone will take it when they find out the truth.

Author's Response:

Ted is a good friend and Brian has been feeling close to him ever since they started working together. The way Ted sees it, Brian really saved him when it came to his career and integrity. Not many people would take a chance on a recently clean addict but Brian believed in him. They will find out the truth semi-soon! Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: Nichelle Wellesly (Signed) · Date: September 08, 2015 03:43 AM · On: Chapter 15

Sorry I couldn't review before now BUT I am truly in love with this story! At core they are still the Brian and Justin we know and love but with a new twist, depth and dimension. Chapter six had me crying....lol and believe me, it's a true testament to your gift as a word artist to get me feeling what the characters felt in those moments- in that head space they were both in. I loath Zach and I know he's somewhere plotting and planning but I'm keeping in mind that you only write happy endings for these two darling characters.

You definitely have a fan for this story! Kudos!

~Nichelle 

Author's Response:

I am glad you are loving it, Nichelle! It is interesting to write. It is the first supernatual story I have ever written and it's definitely the most sexual story I have written so the more in depth D/s sex scenes are new ground for me. I'm sorry I made you cry! lol. Brian convinced him otherwise so I hope you could let out a relieved sigh once that happened. Zach is plotting to a point. He is a bit of a loose canon but also busy and methodical. I think he wants to give Justin a false sense of security before moving forward. Of course his brother going against him my cause some issues for poor old Zach. So far I have only written happy endings for these characters and this story is no exception. In the future, who knows? But with the boys facing so much drama, they deserve a happy ending here.

Glad I have a fan! I'm becoming quite a fan of yours as well! Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: Astrid (Signed) · Date: September 07, 2015 12:08 PM · On: Chapter 15

I'm still reading! I had to re-read the previous chapter as well, cause I've forgotten after such a long time what was going on. Good that there is a support network around Brian and Justin, and that he finally has his ring. Somehow I'm more concerned about the "shit that won’t happen for another several decades" (namely everyone but Justin getting older) than by the fact that he still needs to break the news and deal with his everyday life right now.
Brian's suggestion is not a surprise for me, I've been wondering from the beginning of the story if him turning will be an issue/a possibility, and I'd like it to be, although it wouldn't be easy taking into account Brian's already difficult character. But I guess first things first, namely telling the family, then maybe this aspect. Thanks for the update, even if we had to wait long! Hugs.

Author's Response:

I knew you would be since you inquired about it. ;) I think I would be more concerned about way down the road too, if I were in Justin's shoes. Strange, since he just escaped a psychopath but the life of a vampire tends to be lonely and tragic, in my opinion.

The option is there. I don't think Justin is ready to become a "maker" yet though. Not that his maker is there for him but Finn is there and Brian is his food source. If they both became vampires so soon, it might end in a lot of bloodshed. And, taking Brian's character into account, he may be more proned to turn off his humanity or at least fly off the handle. Luckily Justin's blood lets him stay younger longer so he has more time to decide whether or not he wants to turn. Thanks for reading and reviewing, Astrid! :)

I was so glad to see an update on this one! And it didn't disappoint! Marilyn is an awesome character, happy to have her supporting the guys. Can't wait to read about meeting the family and telling them what's going on!

Author's Response:

I'm glad you liked it! Marilyn will definitely be a big help. Justin will want to put off telling the gang but there will be a time where it is impossible not to tell them. Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: Aliada (Signed) · Date: September 05, 2015 05:38 PM · On: Chapter 15

Thank you so much for the update! I was waiting for it very much! This story is one of my two favorites of yours (the second one is 'It's All a Mystery'). 

I'm just crazy about the plot, characters and atmosphere (though I don't actually read vampire stories very often). The dynamics between Brian and Justin is one of the most intense and captivating I've ever seen. The mere thought about Brian submitting to Justin is exciting and a little unusual. I didn't give it a lot of thought before reading your story, so it became kind of discovery for me. 

Your descriptions of their feelings are beautiful - I liked to see Brian being so vulnerable, open about his feelings. It was really touching. And Justin's desire to protect him is something amazing! I admire them both. My heart ached for them during all those horrible events, and I was so happy when they managed to survive. I could see the real love here - powerful, passionate and deep. 

The last chapter was amazing as well. I liked the details about bracelets. Justin really needs to get to know more about all those things in order to feel more confident and calm (at least to some extent). Interesting, what is William Parker like? I'd love to see him. 

So Marylin and Finn know each other. I didn't expect that :) Brian and Justin are lucky to have him helping them. He seems to be really responsible and reliable. I just hope they manage to succeed, and Zachariah doesn't get to them. 

Thank you once again for this wonderful masterpiece! Can't wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response:

Oh, thank you so much for your lovely review! I am glad you like so many things about this story! I have enjoyed writing it and just took a little too long of a break. I'm also glad you like Brian and Justin's relationship in this tale. I know some people are divided on a more submissive Brian but I would like to think that it isn't coming out of nowhere when it comes to the Feed & Extract universe. 

Justin really does need to know all that he can in order to be prepared and to protect his friends. William Parker will be introduced soon. :) Justin will eventually confide in him over what happened in Kansas and William in turn will tell him about what happened when he was first turned. 

Marilyn and Finn go way back. And they are pretty lucky. Things will go a little more smoothly. I'm not sure Zachariah will be happy to find out that his brother is mentoring his protegé though...

Oh wow, a masterpiece?! Lol, I don't know about that. But thank you for thinking so and for reviewing! :)

Very interesting how everyone involved seems to have some kind of prior connection to Brian and Justin. I'm not a suspicious person mind you, but....something smells a little funny in Denmark.

Author's Response:

Lol! I will go ahead and promise you that both Finn and Marilyn are on the right side of all of this. However, there are people who may put two and two together if they see Justin with either of them. ;) Thank you for reading and reviewing, JP! It means a lot!

I know the pain when your laptop is in the shop - glad you've got yours back. Great chapter. I thought that Marilyn might be the witch. It's good to see that Justin has his ring and it's going to be interesting when everyone finds out. Somehow I can't see Michael taking it well and could possibly be a huge problem when it comes to Justin's safety. Looking forward to the next chapter.

Author's Response:

The pain is very real. This time they put a new motherboard and hard drive in so it shouldn't fail again. If it does, I'll tell them how crappy their machines must be, considering this laptop is only a year and two months old. However, I have a little bit of faith now. I'm glad you like the chapter! Justin really needed his ring. He was going stir crazy without it and it will help him feel a little bit more normal. I'm sure some vampires have to wait hundreds of years until they finally find a witch willing to make one so he's awfully lucky on that front. I think most of the gang will actually be concerned about Brian. Michael might get it into his head that Brian's being abused due to his arrangement with Justin. ;) Guess we'll have to wait to find out!

Author's Response:

I'm glad you like it! It's difficult to write. I don't want their characters to change too much by making them OOC but obviously there is going to be a change when they're together. So to hear you say you like it means a lot. :)

Reviewer: Predec2 (Signed) · Date: July 05, 2015 04:35 PM · On: Chapter 14

Great to see an update to this, Anne!  Interesting how B and J's relationship continues to evolve.  I find that very intriguing, but not unexpected.  I DO think it's important for Brian to maintain some semblance of his alpha characteristics, but I can also see him being more open to letting Justin control him.  Interesting dynamics.  Kind of funny in a way how Justin's feeding seems so...almost mundane, right up there with their other typical actions, like brushing their teeth - ha! 

I love how they are continuing to bond throughout this ordeal, and how they are both so protective of each other. Will be interesting to see the others' reactions to them.

Looking forward as always to the next update, Anne.  And very envious you can update so quickly with 3 WIPs.  Wish I could do the same!  You're like a Maserati with speed; I'm more like a Buick - LOL!  But I'm still dependable.;)  Thanks again. *Hugs* ~Kim

Author's Response:

Glad you are enjoying this still, Kim! Brian definitely still has some alpha in him. He will be showing it around his friends once they start making more appearances again as well as when he becomes more skilled in dealing with what's to come. The drinking blood thing is definitely starting to become routine to them lolol. They will probably forget it's weird until someone inevitably walks in on them. 

Their bond only gets stronger from here on out. Not that there won't be fights. Oh, they will get into it still. But now they know where they stand and what they mean to each other. Their friends will be concerned/surprised/weirded out/angry/upset/etc. They will basically feel a lot of emotions over this whole thing, both before and after they find out what Justin is now.

Oh, I'm not that great. Saint Joan is on an indefinite hold because I can't come up with more inspiration to write the rest of it so It's more like 2 WIPs and one that I'll get to again someday if I don't just end it where it is. :P

By the way, I read a few more chapters of My Heart's Desire today! I will be writing my reviews tomorrow, since I didn't get a chance today due to work. It's really a wonderful story. I sometimes have trouble reading big chunks of long fics at once. I didn't used to before I started writing Intersect but I think it may be that I spend so much time writing that it wears me out. Ask Alois, read Consequences a few chapters at a time after a certain point but when I finally finished it I BAWLED like a baby. I really love your story and will read the whole thing. :) Thank you for reading and reviewing on this crazy fic of mine!

Now that the hard part is over, the hardest part is still yet to come. Will the family accept Justin? Or will they be too afraid to trust him again? I can't wait to find out!

Author's Response:

The family will be very conflicted when they do eventually find out. It is definitely an upsetting situation for all involved they won't know exactly how to take it. They will also be worried about Brian since he has volunteered himself to be Justin's food source as well as changed a lot due to the bond. We shall see who reacts which way. Thank you for reading and reviewing, JP! :)

Oh yes! I sense an amusing next chapter.

I'm curious how they'll tell everyone the news about Justin being a vampire...because thye have to tell them, eventually. I bet Emmett is going to figure it out somehow. :))

Author's Response:

There will be a few amusing parts (at least I'll find them funny. My sense of comedy can be weird sometimes lol.)

All the friends will be suspicious about multiple things when it comes to Brian and Justin post-roadtrip. But they will be finding out. Emmett is going to find out in a very extreme way ;)

Three chapters in one week? What did we do to deserve this, LOL! Whatever it was I hope it continues!

Nice transition chapter... good to see the boys starting to settle in to a calmer routine. Very happy that Justin came clean to Brian about the compelling. Bittersweet scene with Justin at the window.

My favorite very Brian-esque line: He must have sensed something was going on. Fucking bond.

Love the banter between the boys at the end, very normal conversation about something so very far from normal!

Author's Response:

Lol! I really just wanted to get them back home and to a certain point in the story before I did my rotations. I just updated It's All A Mystery last night as well. I will do one more chapter of that, then a long chapter of Intersect, then come back to this one. 

The boys are going to have a little bit of calmness before the real drama starts again. I really did like that scene by the window. I'm excited for Justin to get his ring so he doesn't feel like a prisoner.

I think Brian both appreciates the bond and hates it because he can no longer hide how he feels. In a moment like that, when he is feeling vulnerable and embarrassed, he definitely doesn't love the bond lol.

They needed a light conversation, that's for sure. Of course they will have to face their friends' intense emotions. I think they needed to make light of the situation to keep their sanity.

Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: nicolle_midnight2013 (Signed) · Date: May 31, 2015 11:28 PM · On: Chapter 11

Wow! That was very intense and definitely scary. I did not expect this kind of violence and regret the death of the boy. I can understand the shock that Brian is and that this forces Justin to use his powers to make Brian forget. But Brian is very strong and I believe that the subconscious is fighting Justin's power over his mind.
I believe that Justin is in a great conflict to realize who has the power to control Brian's mind. Vampire or not, believe it is not the way he wants Brian beside him.
A big hug, my dear! Fatima.

Author's Response:

Hi, Fatima!

I just saw this comment! I'm glad you enjoyed Chapter 11. It was an intense one to write. You're right. Brian is very strong and starts to feel the effects of witnessing such a traumatic event as early as chapter 12. 

You're right on Justin and his conflict. He doesn't want to do it. Although vampires (good or bad) can be power hungry in general, he doesn't want Brian by his side or in compliance with him via mind control. He will only do this to Brian if he feels like the man's well-being is at risk, which is what he felt here due to Brian being so emotionally distraught. He was extremely concerned that Brian hit his breaking point and wanted to fix it. He may have given Brian a short-term solution but time will tell when it comes to how he will handle all of this.

Thank you for reading and reviewing! Chapter 14 is up now! Hugs to you too!

I read this early this morning and I wanted to choose my words very carefully with my review. This was an excellent show of how D/s relationships are supposed to work. Granted, each one is different and exacts different rules, but the main concepts being trust and communication is important. At this point both our boys have quite a few lessons to learn...and it's great that they are learning together.

Author's Response:

I'm glad you approve, JP! As you know, despite my interest in D/s, I am not personally qualified to write about a lifestyle like this. The boys do need to sit down and talk everything out and I'm sure they will learn a few lessons about themselves and each other through this process.

Thank you for speaking with me about all this and thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: nicolle_midnight2013 (Signed) · Date: May 30, 2015 05:57 AM · On: Chapter 9

Very hot chapter. This sex scene was one of the hottest that and I've read. I feel a little divided on submission / domination, but I can see how this time fits in the plot, the scene was very well written and seeing Justin on the Dom's position is a first for me. So I'm very pleased with the way the story is taking in this regard.
In all the stories I've ever read such, Justin was always the sub Brian and Dom. And the domination scenes were often unnecessary to the story, but in his plot it does not. It works perfectly for me and I have no problem with that.
A big hug, my friend, Fatima.

Author's Response:

Hi Fatima!

I'm glad you found it hot even though you feel divided on the subject in general! I added this aspect to the story because Justin dominating Brian is something that is very rarely seen so I wanted to give it a go yet wanted it to fit the plot of the story and not pop out of nowhere.

So, like I said, I'm glad it works for you plot wise. It will be a main feature in this fic but I do want this story to be plot driven, not sex driven. 

Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: nicolle_midnight2013 (Signed) · Date: May 30, 2015 04:50 AM · On: Chapter 7

Now that Justin agreed to take the option of becoming a vampire, I wonder what will become of Brian? As Justin will react to realize that over the years Brian will grow old and eventually die, leaving him alone? The irony of it all is that it was Brian who heard Michael would always young and beautiful, from now on, this will be the Justin reality.
The great curse for vampires is loneliness and his immutability. The greatest example of this condition I've ever read in fiction vampire was the vampire Claudia, the child vampire in "Interview with the Vampire" by Anne Rice. An adult vampire almost 60 years in a child's body. His condition and loneliness leads to madness revolting against his creator and the murderess (
at least she thinks she did). For me, this is the great example of this curse / blessing to the vampires.
Great chapter dear!
A big hug, my friend, Fatima.

Author's Response:

Hello, Fatima!

That is honestly the most tragic aspect of becoming a vampire, I feel. This topic will eventually be brought up and there is a partial-solution mentioned in Chapter 8 that would buy Brian some extra time without him turning. However, if Brian chose not to turn, he will eventually die even with the partial solution when it comes to aging. I think that being a vampire would be absolutely isolating and heartbreaking personally. I also think the reasons you stated above are the reasons why Justin would have rather killed himself. They are going to try to live in the now and not focus on it but it will be in the back of their minds. 

The character of Claudia is such a beautifully tragic character. I think she perfectly captures this tragedy. 

I'm glad you liked this chapter. There will be some twists when it comes to Brian and Justin's relationship. It may isolate some readers but I hope you are open to it!

Reviewer: nicolle_midnight2013 (Signed) · Date: May 30, 2015 04:31 AM · On: Chapter 6

Oh, my friend! I had not realized how many updates I missed this story. Justin certainly is a major conflict to take its decision. It's hard to imagine that anyone sensitive as Justin will be able to accept that your life depends on the blood of others.
I hope Mysterious Marilyn find the best solution for Justin and Brian.
A big hug, Fatima.

Author's Response:

Hi Fatima!

It's quite alright! Now you have more to read at once lol. Justin does have a big decision to make, that's for sure. But, if he does turn, he his personality will adapt enough to accept his need for blood. He'll still be Justin but there will be some changes in his viewpoints and certain behaviors. Of course, you will see this in future chapters. 

Marilyn will try to help the boys as much as she can. She will be an ally and enlist the help of other people as well.

Hope you enjoy the rest of the story and hugs to you too!

So I actually read this as soon as it was posted, but am only now getting a chance to review.

I must admit, I was prepared for vampire violence, not for human violoence... which I think upped the impact and was just that much more disturbing. 

As always, looking forward to more.

Author's Response:

I think human violence is more disturbing than vampires/werewolves/etc as well. It definitely was a move I was hesitating to make but I felt the need to address the monsters that people know are real.

Reviewer: Astrid (Signed) · Date: May 06, 2015 09:46 AM · On: Chapter 10

Hey there! I was a bit worried when reading the last chapter that this story will be too much about S/m dynamics. I somehow can't read too much much of this stuff regarding Brian & Justin, no matter who is dominating whom. So I'm very hapy that Brian is establishing boundaries and is not all 100% submissive.

I feel really sorry for the guy who was compelled. I hope the turn of events will somehow change for him later on. Generally speaking, this story is turning out to be much more that I expected it to be, good job! Hugs!

Author's Response:

Hello! I understand completely and realize that Chapter 9 and the Dominant and Submissive aspect of the bond might polarize some readers. It's funny that I'm writing this because I'm not one to read hardcore BDSM fic. That's also why this fic won't have scene play or titles. I don't think Brian wouldn't go for a relationship like that in canon, even if he was the one dominating, and that's why he felt the need to clear that up with Justin. It really will be more plot driven but when it comes to the bond it will focus on the shift the their relationship and how some things change but some things also stay the same. In a way it will even them out a little. 

I feel sorry for him too. I'm not sure if things will get better for him or not since the information that he confessed to the murder is now public. I'm glad it's exceeding your expectations! Hugs to you too!

Reviewer: Toto_too514 (Anonymous) · Date: May 06, 2015 02:45 AM · On: Chapter 10

I was so worried about our boys, I completely forgot the family at home was still in the dark as to what happened!!!! They must have been frantic!

I do like how the dynamic between Brian & Justin developed in this chapter... and obviously Justin still defers to Brian when it comes to emotional support, regardless of how some of the physical aspects of their relationship are changing. Justin's humanity is still so apparent in his reaction to the news of an arrest in Hilton's murder. 

As always, looking forward to the next installment.

Author's Response:

Hello! The family back home was definitely very frantic. And who can blame them? Brian leaves in a horrible emotional state to go across the country to search for Justin and then just doesn't call them? Of course he has a completely understandable excuse but they were worried about what was going on with him as well as Justin at this point. 

Justin will always depend on Brian, no matter what. The bond it makes it so Brian leans on him as well. That includes sexual obviously, but also emotionally. 

Justin's humanity is still very strong. Finn was right when he said that it is like having a split personality. Strong emotional impacts can trigger either side. This instance it triggered the human side of him. However, feelings of revenge or anger can easily trigger the ruthless vampiric side of him that we really haven't seen yet.

Thank you for reading and reviewing! It means a lot!

It sure has turned around what with Justin being the one taking charge during sex.  what will happen when they get back to Pittsburgh?

Author's Response:

It did turn around quite a bit. Although Brian won't be 100% submissive and the won't be engaging in the "scene" side of D/S relationships by any means, he's open to the change due to his feelings and Justin's feelings altering due to the change. It will also help him open up more and not feel quite as obligated to take everything on. He will feel more apt so share any stress or emotional turmoil he is having with Justin due to this bond. Pittsburgh will be interesting to say the least. They are going to have to worry a lot about their safety and their friend's safety as well but people will catch on that something is very different between the two of them almost right off the bat. Thank you for reading and reviewing!

I was so happy to see an update... I saved it to read until I had time to savor it!

But, honestly? I wound up skimming thorugh most of it. I've just never cared for a Dom/Sub relationship with Brian as the submissive. Don't get me wrong. It's well written, and makes complete sense within the story... but it just doesn't work for me.

But, I am still looking forward to the next update. =]

Author's Response:

Hello! The story won't completely focus on this dynamic but I felt it was somewhat necessary to establish that they know and are open to it early rather than drag it out. Most of the story will be focused on the plot and dealing with how people perceive their relationship rather than solely the sexual aspect. I really can't write pure porn every chapter so the fact that I have had two sex scenes in a row is out of character for me. Brian won't be bending down on Justin's every whim though. He will still be very testy and volatile, like he always has been. He will still top and feel the need to assert his dominance at times but just become more open to bottoming and being dominated in some ways. I realize that this chapter could polarize the readers but oh well I was bored when I wrote it and decided to go all out. Thanks for reading and reviewing though!

Reviewer: JAZZEPOET (Signed) · Date: May 04, 2015 02:14 PM · On: Chapter 9

Annie I have to tell you that this chapter was excellent! You do a great job of expressing the dynamics of a D/s relationship and the subsequent feelings that come into play as the connections get stronger and more defined.

Thank you for sharing, I can't wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response:

I'm glad you liked it! It is definitely the most sexually daring scene I have written thus far. At first I was just going to hint at a shift in their relationship but never truly confirm it throughout the story. But I felt that the boys are smart and would catch on. It will be hard to keep Brian in character and have him be a sub, but hopefully I manage.

I'm glad you loved it (even the smut!)

I certainly want it to be a build up story with violence and shock value when you least expect it. 

I'm glad you think the suspense in this story fits the Wikipedia definition of it! haha. That makes me happy. :)

Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Great chapter. I wait for every new installment with great anticipation.
The twist in this story are captivating. Toppy!Justin...so HOT! Brian submissive to an extent with Justin and his asshole self with everybody else should be interesting. After all Justin was always an exception. I wonder how Justin will behave now in the gang dynamics: Debbie always blaming Brian, Melanie being derogatory towards Brian, Michal being less then respectful towards Justin and their relationship - threats?! Should be good...Can't wait for the next chapter.

Thank you for your time and talent dedicated to us readers, your work is great. Keep writing!

Your faithful reader,
Jelena

Author's Response:

I'm glad you are loving all the twists! Brian and Justin are definitely going to have a bit of a role reversal. It will be a challenge to keep the characters somewhat in character and have them really enjoying the new dynamic. The gang will definitely learn to watch their step when it comes to throwing out the insults when it comes to Brian, that's for sure!

It's no problem to share it! I enjoy writing, I love QAF, and I adore these characters! 

Thank you for reading my work and letting me know what you think of it! It means so much!

Hi, Anne! Interesting change in dynamics here. It will be interesting to see the continuing effect on their relationship.  The Toppy! Justin was hot, BTW.:)  Poor Brian, though; I assume some of his emotions are tied to Justin's conversion, but I also think a lot of his feelings are genuine and not dependent upon the change in his lover.

I find the idea of both of them being more possessive of each other now sexy, also.;)  It will be interesting to see how their friends react to them, too. Thanks for the update! I'll be looking forward to reading more. *Hugs*  ~Kim

 

Author's Response:

Hi, Kim! I'm glad you enjoy the dynamics and I'm glad you liked the toppy!Justin scene too! I feel like Brian does feel what he is saying but the connection that comes with the bond finally is allowing him to say it and not worry about his own self-image. The bond will change how he acts around Justin and might change how things play out in the bedroom at times but the things that are coming out of his mouth are genuine. 

Tbey will definitely have even more of a focus on each other, which I think would have happened to an extent if Justin's change didn't have this sort of affect on them due to what they've been through for the last few days. But throw the bond in and the results will be interesting to say the least. Thank you for reading and reviewing! I hope to get more up soon. :)

what a chapter! weird and great idea. love your brian and justin!

Two great things happened today. I had a day of spa and green juicing and feel reborn, AND I read this chapter. Sooooo good !!!

Author's Response:

I'm so jealous! I have never had a spa day haha. I guess you and Justin were both reborn, in a sense. Although, I really do hope your experience was much more relaxing. ;) thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: YumYumPM (Signed) · Date: February 27, 2015 08:09 PM · On: Chapter 7

So now Brian is a vampire too?  Just shows how much he cares for Justin.

Author's Response:

No. Brian would have to be killed with the blood in his system. So, as long as he doesn't die within the next couple of days, he will stay human. It's for the best right now since he has signed himself up as Justin's food source. ;) Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: JAZZEPOET (Signed) · Date: February 03, 2015 12:31 AM · On: Chapter 6

Damn it Justin! Stop being so stubborn and take the offer of life that your partner is giving to you...no one wants to see you six feet under.

Author's Response:

I know, right? But I can't blame him. Being a vampire would suck if none of your friends or family wanted to become one. You would watch them grow old and die while you stayed the same plus the whole blood drinking thing. But Justin has to live, at least I hope so....


Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: YumYumPM (Signed) · Date: February 02, 2015 02:54 PM · On: Chapter 6

Interesting choices.  I'm hoping that Justin takes the second one.  So Mysterious Marilyn is a witch.  That explains a lot.  Good chapter.

Author's Response:

Brian hopes he does too. ;) That she is. They'll be surprised when they find out which Marilyn Finn was talking about. Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Reviewer: nicolle_midnight2013 (Signed) · Date: January 18, 2015 11:16 PM · On: Chapter 4

Wow! As a fan of horror movies and especially vampire stories, I can certainly say that this is the chapter more emocinante so far for me.

Justin's fight with Meredith, the help that you receive from Daniel that ends up killing his creator (which for a vampire is a very strong link), the escape of Justin and the destruction of Daniel (which frankly I regretted) did this chapter a succession of breathtaking events. It was great!

A wonderful chapter, my dear.

A big hug, Fatima.

Author's Response:

Ah I hated killing Daniel. I felt like I was killing a child and I really struggled with that part of the story and seriously considered keeping whether he lived or died ambiguous so I could bring him back later in the story. But Justin needed to see what he was in for with a sympathetic character.

 

 

Thanks for reading and hugs to you as well!

Reviewer: nicolle_midnight2013 (Signed) · Date: January 18, 2015 10:12 PM · On: Chapter 2

Oh, God!

This chapter was amazing and bloody. The best style moment of horror.

As I've read all the chapters posted and I am commenting on the chapters, I not will do my speculations.

The period in which Justin is gone must have been of great distress for Brian.

I can imagine the fear of Justin all the time did not know what would really happen to him.

I love that you took off the head of the Paris Hilton.Lol!

A big hug, Fatima.

Author's Response:

Thank you! This was definitely an intense chapter to write. I did laugh when I decided to put Paris Hilton's head in the freezer lol. I don't wish the real lady any harm though! ;)

 

And hugs to you! - Anne

Reviewer: Toto_too514 (Anonymous) · Date: January 14, 2015 05:04 AM · On: Chapter 5

Justin's rambling, panicked description of events reminded me of an excited 5 year old's excited chatter - in a preverse sort of way.

Relieved to see that Brian & Justin will have some guidance on this journey!

Author's Response:

Lol! Yes, if only Justin would just change his tune a little it would be much more cute ;)



Yes, Finn is going to give them some advice before they go on their merry way. He and a couple of other characters (one OC, one canon) will prove to be helpful. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Reviewer: tiger062 (Signed) · Date: January 13, 2015 02:51 AM · On: Chapter 5

Ah..the plot thickens. Well, Brian has no choice but to accept what happened to Justin - nothing like a fist through someone's heart to get the point across. Thank goodness for Finn - I am hoping this is a good thing......

Author's Response:

They have a long, strange, emotional, loving, bloody, and kinky road ahead of them, that's for sure. Brian will start to get that through his head quickly and want to act on his feet after this. Finn will definitely be of assistance. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Author's Response:

That is interesting! I have been fascinated about how myths and legends came to be for years. I like the TB theory when it comes to vampires. I think Brian would have tried to sit Justin down and looked up this article for him if Howard hadn't burst through the room and he didn't see the man's heart ripped through his chest. Thanks for sharing :)

Reviewer: JAZZEPOET (Signed) · Date: January 12, 2015 09:42 PM · On: Chapter 5

How much more is Justin going to have to go through here? He's starting to waste away because he can't stand the idea of feeding especially from Brian...so where does this leave him? And can we really trust Finn?

Author's Response:

We shall see! The next chapter should give you a good feel of what kind of person Finn is. He is definitely better than his brother, Zach. As for Justin, he is going to find out what his choices are next chapter. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Reviewer: Toto_too514 (Anonymous) · Date: January 12, 2015 04:15 AM · On: Chapter 4

Um... WOW! 

So much going on here... ALL the characters are so vivid and I can feel their pain/anger/arrogance/desperation like they were real people in the room with me. I cried for poor Daniel, he felt like a real person to me!

I am seriously hoping that there may be some quirky vampire thingy that will return our poor Justin to Brian. Maybe the ability to resist Zach in the first place? But I somehow think it's going to get a whole lot worse for out boys before it gets better.

MORE PLEASE!!! SOOOOON!

 

Author's Response:

Brian and Justin will reunite next chapter. I am glad that all of the characters came off as vivid. I hated killing Daniel. I comtemplated saving him. But Justin needed to see what he might be in for. It will get worse in some ways but after the next couple of chapters, more (really dark) humor will be thrown in.

 

 

I worked on chapter 5 tonight at work during my downtime and got about 1000 words written. I was going to work on my other QAF fic but forgot to send myself the partially written chapter :P


Thanks for reading and commenting!

Reviewer: YumYumPM (Signed) · Date: January 11, 2015 09:01 PM · On: Chapter 4

What a lot in one chapter.  I feel bad for Daniel.  What happens next?

Author's Response:

I do too. I felt so bad I thought about just letting him stay on the porch and maybe have him come back later in the story but I felt like Justin needed to see what he might be facing in his new life. We shall see where we go next! Thanks for reading and commenting!

Reviewer: Hotesse (Signed) · Date: January 11, 2015 03:51 PM · On: Chapter 4

Ps. I read your profile, and please tell your mother not to underestimate her self. It's so rewarding to write. Encourage her to write a short part of one of your stories to get her started, it could even be a original character or a dialog, if she is shy to write nc-18

Author's Response:

She doesn't even know I'm writing QAF fic haha. She is not much of a writer. Not saying she is a bad writer, but she doesn't do it out of enjoyment. She encourages me to write though. I used to call her "notepad mom." Sort of like stage mom except with writing instead of performing. But thank you for your encouraging words and taking the time to read my silly profile! :)

Reviewer: Carol (Anonymous) · Date: January 11, 2015 01:16 PM · On: Chapter 4

Both your storys now have my full attention .. so different and yet equally intriguing. An update from either is a good start to the day.

Author's Response:

That is so nice of you to say. I'm going to try to work on Intersect tonight. It is a long chapter so I decided to take a little break from it and write this to mix it up but I think I'm ready to start on Chapter 15 of Intersect now that I've had a breather. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Reviewer: JAZZEPOET (Signed) · Date: January 09, 2015 04:28 PM · On: Chapter 3

Can I reiterate how much you're trying to torture us? This one might end up being too dark and angsty for me...I'm trying to hang in there my friend, but my delicate and sensitive cancerous (zodiac that is lol) heart can't stand to see either of our boys hurting like this. I'll keep reading though because above all else, I really want to see where this goes.

Author's Response:

I understand because these scenes hurt to write! Although I'm an Aquarius so I tend to put my drama and creativity ahead of my emotions, even if it means killing people I like in my stories. There will be really dark and twisted humor throughout the story if you look for it. I'm glad you are going to try to stick it out. :) Thanks for reading!

Reviewer: JAZZEPOET (Signed) · Date: January 09, 2015 07:39 AM · On: Chapter 2

You really are set out to torture us poor b/j shippers aren't you? The way Justin is being turned here is almost too intense for me. With this being the case, is Brian realistically going to be safe around him...that is if he ever sees him again. I honestly can't see them being close after what's happened unless Brian decides he wants to be turned too somewhere down the road.

Author's Response:

They may be reunited sooner than you think! We shall see how it goes. Some vampires (in this story) do manage to not be serial killers. Zachariah and his group are mostly really fucked up people and living throughout the centuries makes it worse, due to becoming so jaded and immoral.  Vamps may have the primal urge to kill when they're hungry, but they have other methods of meeting their needs and can learn to control themselves. Zach and his minions just don't want to control themselves. They know how and will when it comes to business, but they choose to use their abilities to manipulate people and kill when they get the chance. Justin will change some. How can he not? But inherently, he will still be Justin. That is, if he doesn't give into this new side of himself...

Good stuff .. not my favourite B/J genre but am interested to see where you're going to go with this:)5

Author's Response:

Thanks for the compliment and thank you for giving the story a shot even though the genre isn't your cup of tea. While I love the supernatural genre, I am iffy about vampires. I like for them to be at least somewhat morally ambiguous and complex if they are decent people and if they aren't good people, then I want them to be downright horrifying. 


Thank you again for reading!

Please kill him kindly.... not sure I can take to much pain.....

Author's Response:

Well, kindly isn't the exact word I'd use. Although Justin does die in a sense, this is not a death fic! So don't worry too much :)


Thanks for reading!

Reviewer: Astrid (Signed) · Date: January 06, 2015 11:26 PM · On: Chapter 1

Yay, so I'm the first one to comment! A good piece of reading as always from you, veeery different from Intersect for sure, but that's not bad. I'm glad that although there will be angst in this story, our favourite couple will stay together. Was the guy at the party trying his mind control skills on Justin? Well he could learn from Rage certainly... :)

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Author's Response:

Yay, first review for F&E is from a faithful Intersect reader! :D


I wanted to do something really different so I wouldn't get tired of writing the same genre. Not that I am tired of Intersect by any means, but I had an idea and took a precautionary measure.


It will be really angsty. But I will also throw in as much dark twisted comedy as I can because I enjoy doing that when possible.


Ah yes, you have spotted one of our villains. He definitely could learn from Rage. Although, you can't blame creepy guy's abilities alone. Justin is very resiliant and failing to compel someone does not happen often to our villain. Thanks for reading and commenting!
