Love this chapter. Family time. I am having good time reading.
Like the idea of gay resort very much.
Can't wait.
Kiss, kiss.
It is almost midnight here, and I just finish baking cookies for Aidilfitri celebration.
Author's Response: Glad you enjoyed the chapter. There is still much more to decide about the lsland. Now I have a clue where in the world you are.

Very good talk between Gus & Justin. Who said we can't take exemple from the young.
Looking forward the family vacation in Malibu.
Love you.
Author's Response: Gus is incredible for his age; he lives in such a positive environment he has great confidence in himself. Malibu coming up.
Love you back!

I love the idea that the underaged kids get to go clubbing with their own age group to ring in the New Year as well. They'll have a blast.
I've been in fantasyland imagining B's new idea for the resort. The more primitive, eco-friendly environment would be a welcome respite from our everyday technology-laden world (at least to me, others might go into withdrawals). Incorporating the island is a good idea too. This way they can make guests sign a waiver that if they break any of the island laws (whatever they are) they can be escorted off, without fuss. Likewise the staff could sign a staff rules of behavior (always play safe, require periodic medical checks, which drugs/if drugs are allowed, etc.) or they can be similarly escorted off. Speaking of the staff, I've been trying to picture...if the staff are dressed ala Blue Lagoon characters, will they be wearing personalized loincloths, or are nametags unnecessary? *g*
A simple name would be best like Eros Island or whatever. Can you tell I'm into this? Lol.
Great chapter!
Author's Response: One must always plan for the kids to have fun on a vacation. They're still very much in the brainstorming phase about the island and there is so much more to consider; health dept. requirements etc. I'm sure they can come up with some way to identify the staff members. Thanks for enjoying the story and letting me know.

I am completely taken by Brian's island idea. I'd love to live and work there. It could be the hottest gay island in the world. Gays would fly in from all corners of the earth to stay there. WOW!!! You rock Mr. Hamster!

I think it is time for Lindsay to have a reality check. She seems to be loosing it again, living in a world that makes her think she could get visitation rights.
Gus will probably have to put her in her place and set the boundaries. He will have to be the adult in the situation and tell her what he will allow.
Author's Response: You are so right. It was, is, and will always be about what Gus wants; not Lindsay. Thanks Eileen for commenting.
Reviewer: cakdg (Signed) · Date: September 16, 2009 02:02 AM · On: Chapter 119: Malibu Christmas
A very special Christmas (even if there was no snow) starting with the human alarm clock. That brings back yet more fond memories. *g*
I like the Egypt theme for the upper class resort, of course Slave Justin came up with this, LOL! The huts could have different themes too for a different flavor. Or maybe set each one up as a different fantasy room (S/M dungeon, pirate ship, victorian, caveman) that could be reserved for a few hours at a time...or not. LOL It's just fun thinking of all the possibilities! But I definitely agree with them having a private house/beach for their family use.
Then we have Linds. Somehow I knew she wouldn't be satisfied (it's always been about her...manipulative, spoiled wench that she is). Kind of funny that she feels thwarted by 'the mighty BK', is she over her fixation with him or is it because she is not getting his attention that she is doing this? I hope her parents put their collective feet down, because I don't think she'd have a roof over her head or money to hire a lawyer if they didn't support her. Well, I guess she can try, but I can't imagine a good lawyer would take her on with her history (and just thinking about that lawyer being confronted with Mel, and B/J makes me smile).
Mark and J, pilots. Life imitating art...Mark was the pilot in the Camaro commercial and it was J's concept. At least they can rack up a lot of qualifying air hours by flying between CA and Pitts. *g*
Another goody! Looking forward to the next...
Author's Response: I'm always honored with someone takes the time to give such a detailed review showing their interest in the story. I love your hut ideas for different themes; don't be surprised to see it added later. Years ago I was a pilot myself (single engine prop. planes only) and I like to write about it; it's tons of fun but too expensive these days for me to fly. I'm getting tired but I might get one more chapter out tonight if Mr. Hamster can stay on his wheel. Thanks so much for your great review cakdg.

Hey JT, thank you for the chapter dedication, how fun!
Wow! What two really great presents for Michael. He gets a clean record and he gets to spend alone time with JR. I didn't know that the criminal record of an adult could be sealed. Michael has been fortunate and this will make Deb so happy too.
I love the idea of the resort and B/J & J going into business together on the project (it's about time really). Can't wait to see the designs and advertising. I'm sure it will be fabulous as always. After all, who would know better what their customers would want, they are their target market. Joint adventure indeed! *g*
Just a note: when the guys land at Honolulu airport you mention Ted and Blake, but not B/J...?
Another great chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks for catching my oversight missing to add B&J. I've fixed it now with your help. Once an adult completes probation and for certain none violent or sexual crimes and first offenses the record can be sealed. The resort will be a very fun projects for the boys to do.

great chapter: 3 things though...
typo: Boys Paridise should be Boys' Paradise
Since Brian talked about opening the hotel to lesbians, there should probably be beautiful servant women (not just 'beautiful boys and men...)
Which Hawaiian island are you talking about?
Author's Response: Typo repaired; thank you. They will have beautiful girls too; they have to research how to make a resort for girls. The island in the Hawaiian chain only exist in the reality of my story. I did find a 500 acre island for sale in the U.S. Virgin Islands but it's illegal to be gay there or have sex anyway.

I'd love to work there and find me a rich daddy. Where do I send my resume? I wonder what ideas Justin has for the upper class hotel? Egyptian kings and slaves perhaps?

Gus is doing the right thing for him and he also gave J something to think about too. Forgiveness is not always easy to give, and in some cases it took me a long time, but in my experience it has been beneficial when given.
Devin is cute about moving everyone to the ocean. I always love a child's view of the world and how simple it should be. If only! *g*
Great!
Author's Response: Well look who became my 1,300th reviewer and will have the next chapter dedication: YOU!!!! I got several private emails from people who were abused doubting how Gus could so easily forgive his mother so I felt the story needed more information from him so the readers could understand his thinking. The world through the eyes of a 5 year old is fun to see. Next chapter the family of Kinneys goes to Malibu for Christmas and New Years. Thanks for commenting.

Yum, love Slave J fantasies. Had to laugh at B knowing J was having a good dream because he was moaning and snoring at the same time. Lol Funny and hot!
Aw poor Devin. I think closet monsters have been around as long as kids and closets have shared space (they must breed like crazy). This brought back a lot of fond memories.
Glad the boys had fun on the jet. Devin is a typical kid wanting to immediately do it again.
If the Petersons want to see Gus they will endure/accept the bodyguards.
Fun chapter!
Author's Response: That's Justin's most favorite fantasy too. Who hasn't deal with closet monsters has missed out on a lot of fun with kids. Boys love power so the jet was a great treat and it showed Peter he was not left out of family events and toys. The Petersons will get over their problem with Brad; Lindsay has another issue coming up but that's too bad for her. Glad you liked the chapter and commented cakdg.

Ok, you make mistakes intentionally to see if we follow ? ;) That doesn’t work !
Gus is impressive with his thoughts. His views on Mel’s anger is very perceptive. He’s a fine psychologist. He’ll be amazing older. Justin will go with Gus. It’s the best solution. He won’t leave the boy a second, idem for the bodyguard. I see no risk to Gus...
For Danni, I trust them, they will find an alternative to antidepressants
Excellent chapter
A tons of kisses for my favorite writer
Author's Response: I wish I was that clever. I blew it on the names and admit it. It's corrected now. Twink kisses for this old American man have my heart in tackicardia mode racing wild. Thank you! Mr. Hamster thinks he might be good for one more chapter tonight; in progress.
Reviewer: Myhazel_eyes (Anonymous) · Date: September 14, 2009 03:55 AM · On: Chapter 114: Small Package Miracles
Wow, Mel gets really angry. But it is the choice of Gus and as Brian and Justin, she must respect it. If she doesn’t see her ex, it’s her choice. Gus is a young boy, very intelligent and very mature. Like sister, I think a right of access is a good way to reconnect smoothly. And Brian will be there to supervise. He keeps the authority... So if Linds screws up again, he’ll have the last word ! She won’t be a second chance...
Very good chapter
Author's Response: Since Lindsay is prone to fixate on Brian; he won't be supervising; Jusin will do it with a goon present too. Yes, Lindsay has no rights to visitation except what Brian allows her so she better not mess it up. This is all for what's best for Gus; when it stops to help him; she's history. Thanks Gex.

OK, Daddy JTS is a bit lost in the names of his kids or then Brian, Justin, Mark and Jerry can’t recognize their youngest and consistently exchange their boys (Zack instead of Devin ! I smiled the whole chapter)
This first time in the jet went well. The next visits will be supervised by Justin. Brian may be right to choose this solution. I loved Brian with Peter and Shawn. And I loved the décision of Gus not to speak of his mother next to his young brother. Danni chose the youngest, it’s her maternal instinct. I just hope she won’t need the Zoloft, poor girl... here, Lollipop is with us when Gehexan isn’t there but when he arrives, we don’t exist any more, she only sees him, hears him. It's fun to see
Excellent chapter
Big hug and a little peck on the nose for Mr Hamster ..
Author's Response: I have been up over 24 hours writing and screwed up this chapter royally! Yes I wrote Zack instead of Devin; I'm either a retard or this was a clever ploy for major review hits (answer: retard). I better sleep soon if I know what's good for me. Pretty soon the voices in my head will start and I'll get delusional again. It's a very fine line between genius and madness and lack of sleep usually crosses the line.

When, in a previous comment (112), I talked about finding another solution with Brian, I thought this kind of access. As a mom, I know I wouldn’t harm my children but, if one day, I can’t see them, maybe I will react like Linds. So, for me, it's after all a good decision. And it’s the wish of Gus. He’s a very strong kid and very clever. In addition, Brian and Justin will supervise these visits, Linds will never be alone with her son ...
Excellent chapter. Of course I love the direction of this story and it's roses that I send you

Just a note, I thought B/J's son was Devin. Zack was Mark & Jerry's?
Well, I'm glad the reunion with Linds is relieving Gus and B/J. As long as this continues to be what Gus wants and she can't be alone with him, it should be ok. And though Gus may be right about Mel (smart kid), there's also the kind of double betrayal. I mean, not only for hurting Gus, but it was due to her fixation on B. That had to hit Mel double hard and make her wonder if Linds ever really cared about her at all...
I had to laugh at the Zoloft comment. But another alternative is to maybe get her a doggie companion. The boys certainly wouldn't mind. *g*
Great!
Author's Response: I'm tired again and been up over 24 hours writing. Yes I messed up the boy's names again big time in this chapter. I'm fixing it now. Brian will take no risk with his son; he can't piss without a body guard nearby. Your insight on Mel was priceless. That is sooooo true about the double whammie it had to be for her.

By adding a discussion with Justin, also wise, maybe Brian will make a perfect decision

Linds is idiotic. She was warned, but she stalked her son despite the warnings of Brian. She screwed up and now she must accept full responsability for it. I hope she’ll go to jail. It's too bad for Gus, but she was too far. The discussion with Justin couldn’t have come at a better time. And Justin is fabulous in this situation.

So, for the record… I know I’m going to surprise but my moms raised us without diapers. The diapers were only there for outings. According to my moms, they knew our pace and our signals for pee and poo… Intza tries it with Maïa...Yes I know, weird family ;)
Author's Response: The adults have one view of the situation; Gus has another and what he wants is what counts here. I hope you're still reading after finding out what Gus wants. Perhaps your diaper theory is for the best. I don't think it's weird at all; sounds very natural if you can watch them close enough.

Justin has found a wonderful friend for their children. Danni seems adorable. In addition, she’s already trained and has been well treated by the old masters. She arrives now in a home where she will be happy. Charles Peterson lost completely hope. He knows his daughter has made a huge mistake. He tries to save what may be hoping that Brian grants his request... Ted expresses exactly what I think. I have that same feeling ambivalent ...

Small quiet evening around the pool. Everyone is in the water... So, waiting for the meal, I read a little after a day in Spain
Just by reading the title, I thought 'Linds'. Of course, it’s understandable for a mom to want to see her son but still, she’s really stupid. There is a court order against her. She knows she faces jail. Why did not she try to talk to Brian and Justin and try to find a solution instead of tracking his son ?
Justin is perfect with Gus. He was able to explain the situation calmly. And Gus reacts well. He knows he did nothing wrong
I'm glad the choice is a Golden Retriever. It's really a friendly dog
Excellent chapter
Big hugs
Author's Response: Thanks for the Twitter update; I feel like I'm with you. I hope to still be your favorite read after you get to the next few chapters. Gus has his on ideas on the situation and shocks his fathers with what "he" wants concerning his mother. My favorite pet as a child was a Golden Retreiver.

Hey JT. Thanks for your in-depth reply to my comment. Actually, the part of Linds' original crime that I focus on more is her physical abuse of Gus, more than the sexual. As he said, that's what he remembers more and so did I.
I'm glad J will be the one to accompany Gus on his visits with Linds. I don't think she ever knew what a pitt bull he could be when provoked. She's in for a surprise if she puts her foot wrong. *g*
Looking forward to the next chapter!
Author's Response: Lindsay was very drunk when she physically harmed Gus. He still has many more good memories of his mother than bad ones. For Gus to overcome the abuse it's important not to escalate the situation 5 years after the fact. He wants to forgive his mother and it will have a very positive effect on Gus's emotions. In the next chapter he laughs like he hasn't laughed in years. The shadow of Lindsay no longer hides in the back of everyone's mind. He has a very interesting theory on Mel's reaction. Lindsay learned in therapy how much she hurt her son and how much damage she could have caused. Adults have one preception of the situation; the victim child has another; and one must always look what is best for the child. At nearly 12 he knows his feelings and he needs to forgive his mother. Gus is an amazing kid as time will show. Thank you for such a detailed thoughtful comment.

I liked the introduction of Danni to the family.
Well, I am very surprised...if Gus felt this way about Linds, why didn't he say anything to his dads before now?
As he hasn't spoken with her since he was 5, he doesn't know that she wouldn't hurt him again. And for Gus to just rush into her arms without a clearing of the air between the two of them first, didn't ring true for me.
This situation struck me as too easy for Linds. She's getting everything she wants, even though she violated the conditions of her release. Not only isn't she receiving any punishment for this, all is forgiven and she gets to see Gus and B again. So what's the lesson in it for her? My gut still tells me that Linds will try to manipulate the situation, it's in her nature. I also think Mel knows this (after all, she lived with the woman for years, who would know better?).
Curious where the story goes next...
Author's Response: Your insight is outstanding. Children can be very forgiving of a parents mistakes. The subject was taboo to talk about until Justin brought it up and they asked Gus for his opinion and he told them. You'll see only Justin taking Gus for visits. Brian already thought of what you did; Justin sees it too. What is happening is what may be in Gus's best interest to not sustain long lasting damage. Things with Gus get more relaxed next chapter. An hour or two every week or two isn't giving her much to run with but it does give Gus room to filter his feelings and overcome his memories. Would it surprise you to know sexual abuse counselors and courts do reunite families of incest and they have the very lowest rates of repeat offenses after treatment? I've done my research and kept an objective view of this explosive subject. Thank you and I commend your depth of vision into the story.

Danni sounds beautiful, I bet B won't be able to resist her, either. *g*
Well, I'm not surprised Linds' father made the plea to B. And Ted put my feelings into words. On the one hand she did what she did years ago and in present time she hasn't hurt him. But she wasn't given the chance either. Gus is now more mature and able to make decisions for himself. He also remembers what she is capable of. So, even though I have my reservations, I agree with B's decision. Let Gus say what he wants to happen to her. I just hope it's not too much pressure on Gus.
Another great chapter!
Author's Response: Brian won't be able to resist the new young blond of Britin soon. Ted is always a voice of reason and that's why Brian asked his opinion. They won't be expecting what Gus wants; it'll shock them. This is an 11 year old going on 41. Thanks cakdg.

You write the story that make believe. Not everyting is wonderful, it is fantasy. I like your style that balance the fantasy & reality in your story.
Wonderful, brilliant & excellent job you both doing so far with the story, and I can't thank you both of you enough.

Well, hard choice of dog... I’ll opt for the Golden Retriever, but it's just subjective. I love how Brian hands over this choise to his «assistant CEO of housefold affairs »
Justin is right. Peter can’t stay with crappy clothes. He must have the best now. John will be raving mad ! But he has decided which side he’s on (homophobia)
A new chapter very pleasant
Big love for the best writers ...
Ps : Two gay boys and a straight girl. My biological mother often tells my father he has gay genes very strong, stronger than her lesbian genes
Author's Response: Very soon you will read who the dog is. John is beside his self with jealously for his little brother's good fortune. Tough Sh*T we say in America. He'll get over it. The odds of so many gay people born in the same family (2 out of 3 kids) are very very high. Maybe their diapers were too tight. Kisses back!

Oh... Mr Hamster, very, very clever you are.
Anyway can't wait what will going on with the visiting right between Gus & Linds.
I hate it but I love it.
Muah!! Muah!! Muah!!
Author's Response: Mr. Hamster and I put on our aluminum foil helmets getting ready for the psychic mental attacks from readers sending us negative vibrations for this turn of events. My helmet is quadrupled layered. So far our defenses are holding up nicely. Gus will not be alone with Lindsay for quite some time. Brian or Justin will always be in the room.

Brian and Justin really took Peter under their wings. And Justin wants to settle in the office of Brian to make his arms as assistant CEO... Great but they may as well install their desks straightaway into the bathroom (LOL).
I dare not even imagine what would cause a blizzard here. 5 cm of snow and we are already on our knees (at least those who aren’t accustomed to driving on snow). The authorities will activate the emergency powers and send the Army (I’m just kidding – 5 cm and that stops the world from turning… pfew)
Excellent chapter (just more Slave and King for me ;) )
Author's Response: Peter was lucky to have Brian and Justin available for him. I laughed at the restroom office idea. It takes skill to drive on snow and good tires for it. I too enjoy slave Justin's visions. hugs!
Reviewer: Myhazel_eyes (Anonymous) · Date: September 13, 2009 07:31 PM · On: Chapter 109: Boy’s Night Out
John is always so stupid (for Claire, there may be still hope). It’s a good thing Peter leaves this environment. First exit on the gay scene for the young generation. With such chaperons, this could only be fine. I remember my first time in our usual club with Otsoa, Tomas and my dads (yes, my dads) as chaperons. Inside, a special moment, a lot of invitations to dance, some caresses (nothing too serious) and a crowd of gay guys who felt they’d been entrusted with a mission of responsibility to me because I was the "little brother of" (and sometimes, it’s still the case). It was too great.
Super Chapter
Always a pleasure to read
Author's Response: John is a typical macho homophobic prick teenager in America. We have way too many here. Remember this is the country that beat to death Matthew Sheppard tied to a fence. I sometimes wish I could leave it's so oppressive at times. The far right religious groups rule the country and it makes for a bitter environment too often. I too was the youngest in my family and it has its advantages. You get away with so much crap being the youngest growing up.
Thanks for commenting!
Reviewer: Myhazel_eyes (Anonymous) · Date: September 13, 2009 06:45 PM · On: Chapter 108: Another Son
Peter was right to speak with Brian and Justin. They are wonderful people who will help him in his coming out. It needs courage to reveal his homosexuality. For my brother and me, it was less difficult because we didn’t have to tell our parents. I came out during my last year at collège (Your Freshman year). I told my class and the next day the whole school knew ! A great time ! In fact, I haven’t experienced serious bullying. Just some insults but I didn’t react. I just divided my class into two part, with me and against me (those who avoided me). During breaks, it was rather original, girls came toward me, some boys too out of curiosity (and I didn’t even know them). For teachers, it was either indifference or support but never rejected... In my village, nobody was surprise. Everyone here knows my family and appreciate us. In fact, it's sister who created the buzz (Look, the fags’girl, she’s dating a guy !!!!)
Super Chapter
I really had a good time
Author's Response: I can just imagine; you have gay parents; three gay sons is it?; and one straight girl. I can see how she would stand out as the token straight in your family. Sounds like you went to a pretty cool school. In many places in America coming out at school will get your ass kicked on a routine schedule. Some big cities have high schools just for gay kids because it's that bad here. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Thanks for reviewing very much Gex.

Wonderful chapter
Author's Response: If you grew a basketball in your tummy for nine months you'd want to be pampered a bit too and deserve it! A C-section is major surgery and one must take it easy after such an event. Glad you enjoyed the chapter almost as much as I'm enjoying reading your reviews! Thank you!

Oh, I'm sure Sister cried on this chapter. Wonderful chapter elsewhere. I remember Intza’s first delivery. It was panic stations (we really thought of losing them and besides her OB wasn’t very positive before going in surgical unit). For the second pregnancy, everybody was scared to death (even the OB because he already knew the girl and Intza may be full of surprises) but there, we were all prepared… Tiffany have a difficult spell.
I loved the section with Troy Henry. Poor guy ! There are days like that where it is better to stay home…
Excellent

Author's Response: I was thinking about your sister writing the chapter. Women have to put up with so much crap. I once knew a guy like Troy who did that and got fired off the job when he got all smart mouth with the CEO of our company; he thought it was a salesman he could abuse. It was the funniest shit I ever saw. Everybody just stared in shock when he did it. The guy had 3 kids too; what a shame. Big love back!

I think J's conversation with Gus was handled well. Gus knows his options if the need arises.
Linds was warned at Thanksgiving and Gus' safety is paramount. Wonder what her parents will say?
Another good chapter!
Author's Response: Brian gets a call from Lindsay's dad next chapter. Justin was very good talking with Gus and understands the situation without freaking out or getting overly emotional about it. That would not do Gus any good. It helped him to know it happend to his dad too and he can grow up ok after it. Thanks cakdg.

I enjoyed reading the conversation around the lunch table, all of them pitching their ideas for the dog. I think Great Danes are very majestic, but there is no getting around they are huge. They would need a people door, not a doggie door! We've had Labs (all colors) and Golden Retrievers, they're great with kids. So either breed would get my vote.
How fun for Peter on the shopping spree. I can imagine he would be overwhelmed but J handled it with him just right.
Great chapter!

Aw...a puppy! All of the kids are at the right age for the responsibility. And B put down fair rules too. Curious to see who the newest member will be.
I feel for Peter, being grateful and new in the family dynamics. He's never been a big brother before either. Knowing B/J and the kids I'm sure Peter will get over his tentativeness quickly.
Loved it!
Author's Response: I love snow but I don't care for cold weather. I don't see much of the white stuff here in Texas. The dog will be just over the puppy stage for a small story spoiler. Peter is very happy in his new home with a boyfriend and very understanding gay parents.

Oh goody, I have more catching up to do!
Peter is lucky that he has B&J there to support him in all ways (and get him out of his homophobic family's daily orbit). I like the way that J approached Shawn (Ted/Blake) about Peter. Shawn knows up front that Peter is interested in him and that he can help guide Peter. By helping Peter come out, it should also help Shawn come out of his shell too.
Claire! Well, she's right, she doesn't know Peter (if she ever did). But she and her mother created the environment in which he didn't feel free to tell anyone other than B&J (if she was any kind of ok mother, that should have given her pause for reflection). She's a mercenary thing too isn't she? B paying off her mortgage and taking care of Peter wasn't sufficent? She had to ask why he wouldn't pay for John too...stupid cow!
I'm happy that Peter gets to enter the Kinney all male kingdom. *g*
Great! On to the next...
Author's Response: Justin wanted to try for a baby but couldn't get Brian to do it so the argument ended not having another child. Mel and the girls are right down the street and frequently come to Britin to visit and be with Gus. Not exactly an all male kingdom. Thanks cakdg.

I do like Justin still helping him. I also like how Brian didn't go there, even though I feel he had more of right/reason to than either Mel or Hunter.
Author's Response: I appricate your honest comments. Others had some of the same feelings as you do about this chapter. This was the last punishment for Michael; mostly he will improve now with I think one more mess up on the way. I promise that things will get better for Michael. Mel had his kid and Hunter was his son; both were deeply hurt by Michael's actions. Brian refrained from attacking the man for Debbie's sake. Thank you for commenting Susan.

I'm so happy for Peter... At least, he’ll live in an environment where he’ll be loved for what he is. I can’t understand these parents who reject their children because they are homosexual or who don’t know how react with these kids... Sh*t, it's the same person before and after coming-out. I would say it’s a better person after precisely because he can live full life. They never really loved their children, it isn’t otherwise possible... Anyway, I'm happy for him and Shawn.
Very nice chapter
I loved it, love you and love Mr Hamster so much
Author's Response: America is different than Europe with much hatred for gays; many parents disown a gay child in this country; it's a tragedy. Religion plays a big part in the way they think here.

Author's Response: Mark still loved the attention his good looks could create. Leave it to a PR man to avoid a controversy and turn it into a coup. Thanks for commenting.

glad brian got peter out of claire's. john would probably hurt him, even if claire is kinda taking this pretty easy, siblings are another story.
Author's Response: John is a mean kid especially about someone gay. They knew he was better off with them and we all have a heart for our young ones; they have it rough too often. Thanks alys.

Quick note: Typo:
“Yeah, we need a dog Dad.” Zack voted in.
Should be “Yeah, we need a dog Dad.” Devin voted in.
Author's Response: Thank you! I'll repair it now. I've been up over 24 hours writing and got my kids confused.
Reviewer: Dave (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 11:44 PM · On: Chapter 109: Boy’s Night Out
I can remember the first time I was with a large group of gay boys and it felt so good not to be the only one. That's a very liberating experience for a boy coming out. I laughed at Mark dancing again and it was cool to donate the tips and more. John reaction to Peter's new life was very interesting. ..he sucked his way to paradise." What a jerk! Keep up the good work Mr. Hamster.
Author's Response: I too remember my first moments in a large gay setting. Thanks for commenting.
Reviewer: Dave (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 11:37 PM · On: Chapter 108: Another Son
It's really good they took in Peter. He's going to have a great life now. This also helps Shawn out. The holiday at Britin sounded like so much fun. Wish I could be there.
Author's Response: I enjoy writing about the coming out phase; it's a magical moment for the boys. Thanks for reviewing Dave.
Reviewer: complicated (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 07:19 PM · On: Chapter 108: Another Son
Why some mother is hard to accept a gay son. Just because they like the same sex doesn't mean they are different, they still the son they know.... why? oh why?
Very smart of Peter seeking B & J to talk.
Brilliant chapter.
I love you Mr Hamster, you too JT.
Author's Response: People are afraid of what they don't understand and gays are high on the list for too many people. Add to that the 'faggots' who make us look bad in public doing odd queer things and it's hard to overcome the sterotypes they have of us. Son or no son he's a different creature to her now. Mr. Hamster was so excited to read your review and see your rating he jumped on his wheel and started spinning the next chapter. Thank you for inspiring him.

I enjoyed reading about the jump five years into the future and that all were together for Thanksgiving. I was a little disappointed not to read anything about Lily or the potential next child (a girl?) that she would have for J&B.
I was not surprised to read about Linds though. I've always felt that she would make contact whenever she was released and somehow I don't think she's through trying because it's all about her wants, not Gus. Glad he has security around him.
So five years into the future, what's the status of Kinnetik Advertising & RE? How did Mark's 2nd movie do? Did he decide to do more movies (closer to home of course)? What's Jerry up to?
As always, can't wait for the next chapter....
Author's Response: Lily would have done it but Brian didn't want to be a father again; he was happy with one kid each. Lindsay is lonely and misses everyone; not just Gus, but tough sh*t. The business and real estate are doing very well and they have made loads of money; they still have about 17,400 rentals, residential and commerical combined. I hope to write a new chapter tonight if Mr. Hamster will wake up. Thanks for commenting cakdg.

Five years later, What a good idea that leap in the future ! You are a genius, JTS. Still, I noted all characters (old and new) on a document, so I don’t get bogged down in too much detail... I ADORED this chapter. Britin Thanksgiving in Britin, it’s so great. And yet it was almost ruined by the arrival of Lindsey.
I hope she won’t make problems with Gus...
I love already this young Shawn. He deserves to be happy because he seems to have suffered a lot. What will think Claire when his son will be his coming-out ? I’m longing to know what she’s going to say
BEAUTIFUL, SUPERB, GREAT
A big hug for you two
You can read from Gex, I hope, this week-end. For now, he doesn’t leave Tomas and the house. They make an appearance just to sit down to a meal ;)
Author's Response: I'm so happy to see your review and learn Gex is ok but having fun. The story needed to move forward to stay interesting. More about Shawn and Peter soon. Claire will be Claire and freak out. We hug you back !

Ah, Mom and baby are ok. I’m happy for Tiffany, Mark and Jerry but now she must take care of herself... An after c-section is not really a great time... Zackary (with a k) Justin Griffin is a beautiful name for a beautiful baby and it’s touching from Jerry to have thought to include the name of Justin in it ...
I am touched by these last two chapters
A big kiss for you
Author's Response: I feel for you women having to give birth; it's amazing what you go through. I always liked the name Zackery, we have an old president with that name: Zackery Taylor. Thanks for commenting and big kisses back to you!
Reviewer: Ihintza (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 08:16 AM · On: Chapter 105: Three Weeks Early
Wow, an emergency c-section ! Poor Tiffany... Not really funny !!! What memories in this chapter. A premature birth is extremely stressful and I know what I mean (two births, two C-sections)... For Txabi, it was an emergency c-section too with a big hemorragie and a high risk of death for me and my baby. For Maïalen, everyone expected as much (I’m the Queen of stressful pregnancies) and my OB had planned a scheduled cesarean delivery as soon as possible and would sufficiently viable for the baby. 1 month ago and almost half and Maia is doing well... And you're right, what do you tell about a baby whose main occupations are eat, sleep and poop ? ( ;) )
In any case, the clan is always there in family events. It's great that everyone comes to support and welcome the baby...
A huge cuddle for you (and a peck on Mr Hamster's ears)
Beautiful chapter, thanks a lot
Author's Response: I tried not to get bogged down in medical details and just made it happen. They're closer than many straight families in the world.
Cuddles back and Mr. Hamster loves the attention. Thanks!
Reviewer: Ihintza (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 08:15 AM · On: Chapter 104: Warner Brothers
Wow, I love when Brian puts Harvey Levin in his place !!! He’s a devil but I love him when he's like that... It's almost a shame that Jerry asks him to sign the armistice but well, WB fired the host and the reporter. They put under stress too because there is a risk for the film and a lot of money at stake
Excellent chapter
I really loved it
Hugs (and a little peck on Mr hamster's nose)
Author's Response: They answered the controversy with excellence; punished TMZ for causing it, and then limited the damage it would cause everyone and saved the picture. Under the circumstances it was in no ones interest to increase the PR war. Mr. Hamster was rather proud of himself how he handled this one. Hugs back and thank you Ihintza.
Reviewer: Ihintza (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 08:14 AM · On: Chapter 103: Laundry Day
Well... In crisis management, Brian is admirable. A superb interview to pull the rug from under TMZ’s feet. I don’t know how they will get themself out of this situation with a man like Brian. I love when he’s in an offensive mode. He’s grandiose. He’s good in the form and in the substance
A tons of kisses for you (and a peck on the lips for Mr Hamster)
Author's Response: Every family has lost someone to drugs in America; it's a national shame. No innocent family members should be hurt by it. TMZ crossed the line airing that story and since Mark's mother had been missing for over a decade she practically wasn't his mother anymore. The truth ended the controversy and flipped the tables on TMZ for causing it. Brian's a genius in emergencies related to public relations or PR. Thanks for commenting and many kisses back to you too.
Reviewer: Ihintza (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 08:13 AM · On: Chapter 102: Sins of the Mother
Kids are sleeping, hubby too, so I take advantage of this quiet moment to join my family outside and decompress a little. I decided to sit at the big family table with a strong coffee and translate all the comments I rated these four last days (because I read religiously every update and I scribble a comment to each chapter but it’s often very late and I go to sleep so...;))
This is a great chapter... Ah la la, these magazines ! They use still low methods to get the most scandalous on the stars. Mark has a sublime support (a wonderful partner and an ultra-efficient team of PR...). I know right away Brian will come up with a brilliant idea to save the situation ...
Beautiful teamwork with Mr Hamster
Big Love
Author's Response: Thanks for the twitter; love to hear what you're doing. They picked on the wrong client when they took on Mark's family laundry and got Brian Kinney on their asses. Yes, Mr. Hamster is quite the smart rodent who I'm very proud of. Love back!

I really like the name of the newest member of the Griffin family. Glad all are doing well.
Another good one, on to the next...
Author's Response: He's a real cutie pie too. Thanks for reviewing cakdg.
Reviewer: cakdg (Signed) · Date: September 11, 2009 06:51 AM · On: Chapter 105: Three Weeks Early
I have to catch up again!
I like how things unfolded with TMZ/WB. If B/J become WB's ad agency, won't they be required to get TMZ back on top again or are they considered a separate entity and hire their own advertising folks?
I bet a lot of actors feel the same way as Mark when they are filming on location without their families.
Nice to read about the plans and progress with the new property acquisition.
Mark's baby is on the way! I initially wasn't concerned about the baby being a few weeks early, our family has a history of preemies...but now he's in distress. Thank goodness the next chapter is waiting for me.
Great!
Author's Response: Brian will let down his ban on TMZ like it never happened. If their ratings are high enough he'll buy their air time now. Nobody will know anyway for the most part. I ended the cliffie before sleeping; I don't want to stress my readers! Love you!

hoping linds stays away
Author's Response: Ted and Blake have a challenge on their hands; Shawn has many issues. Emmett and Drew with a kid? Maybe; nice idea. Lindsay will be a distant antagonist of the story but no real threat with the security Brian has in place. Thanks for commenting alys.
Reviewer: Susan (Anonymous) · Date: September 11, 2009 04:50 AM · On: Chapter 28: Coping Now
Good installment!
Enjoyed Justin & Brian looking out for Molly, but that's what they do.
Liked Justin visiting Michael. Nice to set the ground rules. Looking forward to Michael NOT sticking to the plan. OR maybe he will!
REALLY enjoyed Brian & Justin's after dinner convo about Michael, Babylon, & the wedding. Always nice when they have their everyday life conversations.
Author's Response: Hi Susan! It's good to see you reading again. Molly's family so they'll take care of her. Michael will eventially overcome his hardships with a couple of dips in the road on the way. The love between Brian and Justin makes everyday events very special and easy for them to manage. Thanks so much for commenting.

JT- Completed said NO but this summary seemed like an ending. Is Forever Yours coming to an end?
I sure hope not...
Jane
Author's Response: Sorry to give that impression. The story isn't over; I've advanced the time line to keep it interesting. The babies are older and we have young Shawn and Peter with coming out issues coming up. The summary was to bring you up to date with the past five years. This story may very well exceed Embraced in length. I'll add TBC... to the chapter to make sure it doesn't give the impression 'the end'. Thank you for commenting and bringing this to my attention.
Reviewer: Dave (Anonymous) · Date: September 10, 2009 09:23 AM · On: Chapter 107: Five Years Later
This was a powerful chapter full of great details into the future. I could smell the turkey. I loved how Mark started to help Shawn and ending with Peter facing his sexual orientation. You rock Mr. Hamster!
Author's Response: Mr. Hamster refused to write a 100 chapters of diapers, baby first steps, potty training, baby's first lie, etc. HE HE HE! So he fast forwarded the story to pick up five years down the road with new issues and kids in the family; new boys coming out, and new adventures for both of our uber rich powerful gay couples in love. Thanks for commenting and Mr. Hamster takes a bow.

Such a great story, I'm completely involved wiht the progress of your characters. My only wish is that we'd see more involved chapters with Brian and Justin with their sons !!!
Author's Response: Thank you Tiff for commenting and enjoying the story. It's a labor of love. Let me see if I can write more of the sons in the story. Gus is easy but an infant doesn't do much but eat, poop, and sleep at this age.

The same parent company WB owns TMZ and the movie Mark is making. That is a very interesting plot twist. Mr. Hamster is doing excellent lately. I was looking forward to Brian's war against TMZ but maybe this is better for everyone.
