Brian having sex with Michael.  I want to trow up

Reviewer: arakiss (Signed) · Date: July 21, 2016 02:29 PM · On: Chapter 22

As much as I can't stand Brian and Michael sexually involved, I think it's believable all things considering.
Brian needs safety and control and I just can see him making that foolish decision to marry Michael... before Justin intruded his fantasy :)

I enjoyed your story, thanks for sharing!

This was just as entertaining for the second chapter.

Reviewer: no sleep (Anonymous) · Date: January 30, 2013 01:30 AM · On: Chapter 1

I'm very impressed with the first chapter.

Reviewer: Al (Anonymous) · Date: January 02, 2013 04:12 PM · On: Chapter 22

I loved the first half of the story. When it came to Ethan and Michael I skipped that part because I have read this story before and I just wasn't interested in that part of the story. The first couple of chapters were hilarious I laughed so hard. Cute story! I love to see Brian as the one who kept his pants on til the time was right.

Reviewer: Infatuated_BJreader (Signed) · Date: September 29, 2011 10:36 AM · On: Chapter 22

It was fun reading it! But michael and ethan made me cringe..LOL..Thanks for sharing it..:)

Reviewer: Aletheia (Anonymous) · Date: March 25, 2010 01:06 AM · On: Chapter 1

I'd loved your story, read it  since you post it here, and every day waited for a chapter, even if this is my first review to any of the story of this site. I like the end (i love b/j) and got angry at michael, also be expecting next thing you write....

The only thing was that happen so fast, i was hoping a little more drama (in this part i'm not saying your way didn't have any drama, what i'm talking about is more resistance of michael and for us and they to see the relationship between brian and justin grows up more before the acceptance)



Author's Response:

Sorry I have a really bad habit of 'rushing' the end as I always want to get there fast! LOL! I have tried to curb this tendency in later fics! Once I got where I wanted to that was it! The rest I leave to your very fertile imagination! I am sure they will grow together and develop a strong relationship! Then again . . . who knows they may both 'see the light' and join one of us instead! LOL! Thanks for your thoughtful comments! Much appreciated! :)

Reviewer: BluvsJ (Anonymous) · Date: March 25, 2010 12:13 AM · On: Chapter 22

OK... I waited till it was complete to finish reading ... I liked the ending ...eventhough the phone company will probably put you on it's most wanted list...lol......BUT.... OMG....what you did to Brian along the way was torture... I don't care how emotionally damaged Brian was as a child... unless he was "BRAIN DAMAGED".. Brian would have had more dignity and self-respect than to CRY over Mikey ... what you did to Brian was as bad as...taking Brad Pitt and turning him into Ted Schmidt!!!!!!! LOL.... I would love to read more of your fics .... But...please no more Mikey and Brian "together" stories.... because in case you haven't noticed..... I Really..Really..Really....Really...Really... Really... Really...HATE... Mikey...Thanks....



Author's Response:

I solemnly promise never to have another Mikey and Brian - even I found it hard to stomache!! LOL!  I suppose what I was doing was investigting how 'this' Brian would react - we were never really told directly in the series that he was abused - we saw 'cold' Joan in action and yuk user Jack but the rest was implied - my premise was a 'what if' AU and he never cried in public - just in the shower. I thought it fitted with the character I was developing. Tee hee the phone companies have to find me first!! Thank you so much for all your comments and support! :)

very admirable that justin didn't tell deb the truth. she probably won't get it out of michael but that's because he's a coward.

finally brian let himself do something for himself. justin is as good for him as he is for justin.

can't wait till tomorrow.



Author's Response:

Yeah it just seemed right that he would use Deb to force Michael to confront the truth! Glad you were still enjoying it! :)

Reviewer: loverandy (Signed) · Date: March 22, 2010 07:37 PM · On: Chapter 21

What can I say? Great as always. And I really admire how Justin handled with Debbie and whole situation of course. Though It would be hard for both of them, but love is worth trying.
PS Congratulations. (about promotion) :)

Author's Response:

Thank you! It is only an 'acting' position at the moment but I am sure it will be challenging and I am really looking forward to it! I am glad you admire - this Justin, I do too! last ep on the way! :)

I have been gone for a while, so it was great to see the many chapters waiting for me when I got back. I was also suprised to see your note at the end of chapter 19. So, I just wanted to also give my support to you once again. As I have said already, I love your stories and I LOVE THIS ONE TOO. It's an AU, but still love it (just like I love the AU stories I've read on this site). I CAN understand this Brian and his reactin to Michael's transgressions. It's one thing for Ted or Emmitt to let Brian down in betraying whatever trust he entursted to them, but it's another thing when Michael or Debbie let him down because he's been through hell and back with them:

“God Brian what is it? What the fuck happened.”

“I got fucked, really and truly fucked!”

The words were whispered but full of emotion.

Justin drew Brian into his arms, kissing him softly on the eyelids that were obviously fighting back tears.

Brian got fuck and not in the positive life affirmation way. Of all people, Michael should have known better than to sneek behind Brian's back. Brian is not upset because Michael was fucking Ian (lol), it's the betray of the bond that is B/M. Michael wasn't some trick, he was Brian's best friend who knew better than to break that kind of trust and love and loyalty which he had with Brian. Brian is hurting because the last person who he never had to worry about hurting him HAS JUST DONE THAT... really trully fucked him. I believe in this Brian and I have hopes for him. I am sure that there will be ups and downs, but that is expected of our boys. Please please have Justin return ASAP. The emotional damage that Debbie can do to Brian--ahhh I don't even want to think about it. Why Brian always get's blamed for everything has always eluded me... Once again, excellent work and am looking forward to your next update :o)



Author's Response:

Thank you!! I felt that way about Brian too . . . one of the reasons I included it! (Maybe he was wearing a secret sign that said 'blame me for all that transpires around here! LOL!) Thanks again for your fantastic fb! More on the way! :)

Reviewer: rowolfluv (Anonymous) · Date: March 21, 2010 04:00 AM · On: Chapter 20

That's right Debbie, act before you think or get all the facts. She is one steamroller of a person. She thinks she knows everything but really knows very little. Behind Mikey and Mel, she was my least favorite character on the show. I never understood how people could think that Brian and Michael belonged together. They have nothing in common other than growing up together and Brian's loyalty to Michael and Deb for their help when he was a kid. I can't imagine Debbie really wanting them to get married in the first place knowing how Brian is with his tricking. I can't imagine her thinking that Brian's refusal to stop tricking would make Michael happy.

I hope you make sure Debbie gets her head handed to her on a platter for decking Brian when she should have decked her own son! Can't wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response:

In the series there weren't many I actually despised - some I liked less than others. But I thought the series was 'above the usual' partly because they weren't 'cardboard cutouts' there was good/bad sides to them all. You are right about Deb - I think she sent them to Justin so Justin could dissuade them from marrying! Updating soon - so you will know what happened! :)

Reviewer: Maya (Anonymous) · Date: March 21, 2010 02:13 AM · On: Chapter 20

I didn't say that I "liked" Ethan, just that he was the most symathetic character of the 4. Ethan is far from a hero or an honorable character, but hard to think of him as a slimeball when the other three are violating their pledges as partners and as confidants. This is a story about deeply damaged people, there are no real heroes here. Kinda like real life, all kinds of shades of grey and black.

In Canon, Ethan wasn't that bad of a guy....certainly not the guy for our Justin, but hardly a dastardly rogue. He lied to and cheated on Justin. Yep just like Justin lied to and cheated on Brian. Just as Mel did to Linds...just as Linds did to Mel... it was kinda a Cowlip pattern of relationships.

I am now confused about Debbie though. Brian is at Justin's place-a guy Debbie doesn't know well. How did she know he was there and how did she know where Justin lived? 

 



Author's Response:

Deb knows Justin better than Brian and Mike - she was the one who recommended him to them for counselling. I really didn't like Ethan much (although I made allowances for age) - I thought his actions if not his words were sleazy. I also thought he used to 'subtly' put Justin down a fair bit. We might have to agree to disagree ( I also made allowances for Justin as I think he was still very insecure from the bashing and the way Brian treated him. No I didn't think Brian 'deserved' to be cheated on though. (Hate the word 'cheat'!) Hope that answered your questions - I like thinking about it! :)

Reviewer: loverandy (Signed) · Date: March 20, 2010 12:53 PM · On: Chapter 20

oh, poor Brian. everyone thinks It's always Brian's fault. this is so unfair! great chapter as always.

P.S. you can read my stories only if you know russian or I write something in english, what is highly doubtful :)

Author's Response:

The only Russian I know is Prevyet (hello?). So I am sorry I won't be able to read it! Now I admire you even more as I think Russian would be very difficult to write in! (I did a 6 week fun course and still didn't get the cyrillic script!) Thanks for your comments - as my mum used to say when I said it isn't fair 'Life isn't fair'! However at least in fan fic we can fix that! LOL! :)

Reviewer: Shelly (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 10:42 AM · On: Chapter 19

I think you nailed Brian's reaction pretty dead on... sarcastic, doesn't show emotion, goes out to drink it away before going to someone he can trust - pretty typical. 

I think it's great work! =]

Reviewer: DS (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 10:22 AM · On: Chapter 20

God I dislike Debbie sometimes. In the show and in many fics. She always sticks up for Michael or whoever she thinks is right and hardly gives others (Brian) chance to explain themselves!!! But one thing, would she really manage to punch Brian to the point of blacking out? I mean the chin would hurt but isn't it punch to the head or something that would make a person black out? Must be the hangover making him all fragile I guess!

Also, I so hate Michael.

Thank you for the quick updates!

 



Author's Response:

I actually liked Deb, but this one was quick to judge and quick to react! You can knock someone out by catching them full force at the point of the chin - if you catch them under especially you can cause some real damage. many years ago when I was working as a barmaid I saw it happen. So I know it can! But yeah the HO would not have helped! You are welcome - it is much easier when the fic is already written so I can't really claim any kudos for the quick updates! Glad you appreciate them though! More on the way soon! :)

Reviewer: judi (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 09:59 AM · On: Chapter 19

I'm not sure how to read your feedback.  Is it there somewhere?  I can't imagine what the issue is with Brian.  He's put as much of himself into a relationship that he knew was not right for him for Michaels sake and he can't help the natural attraction he's had for Justin.  They have so much in common and Mikey really is a dolt!

 

Looking forward to the next chapter.

I don't comment often or to many different writers, but I had to say this: What don't people understand about AU? The very words mean that the story is NOT CANON!!!! The characters are going to be OOC, their reactions are going to be different, it's NOT CANON!!! Sheesh people, it's fan fiction! Get a grip!

Whew, thanks for letting me rant. LOL Keep doing what you're doing and get our boys together!

Author's Response:

Loved the 'get rid of Mikey' comment - what : drop him down a hole? Have him run over by a bus? be caught in an avalanche of comics? Ah the possibilities are endless . . . unfortunately my muse won't let me take the 'easy way out'! it will definitely turn out better soon! In the home straight! Thanks for the comment! :)

Reviewer: Dawna (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 06:15 AM · On: Chapter 19

Uhhh hi!  (slinks back with head down in shame) I just couldn't stay away. I never meant to offend and I'm sorry for the harsh words. You are such a great writer - you don't need me telling you how to write your AU story - your Brian can be any way you want him to be. I knew going in that any version of a B/M coupling would turn my stomach ( I never liked the character of Michael on the actual show and I'm not a fan of the actor that portrayed him) but my feelings really don't matter- please forgive- I never want to offend of piss anyone off by being to critical.  As for this chapter - Falling down drunk emotionally hurting Brian worked for me and his going to Justin for comfort was sweet but I'm concerned that he's rebounding to poor lovesick Justin. I'm in this to the very end but I will say this will be my last comment/review. I don't want to say anything that may effect your future story sharing. Please know that I have truly enjoyed all your stories and pray you write many, many more.

PS.. If you have contact with the other fanfic writer that stopped because of harsh criticism - please ask them to reconsider- there are a ton of WIP's I've read that have not been updated in forever- to think them could be the author and no more update will be written makes me sad.

I'm signing off now- again I'm sorry if my hasty words caused any negative feeling- that was not my intent. Please continue sharing your wonderful stories - I'll be reading - but keeping my comments to myself (big grin). take care.



Author's Response:

Thank you sooo much! I got over being flames years ago. When there were really harsh crits but my friends online were fantastic! Now I know who and what I am and write for pleasure. I like to know my reading is read and hopefully enjoyed but it is not the end of my world if someone does not like it. I am older and hopefully wiser now! Unfortunately the girl who stopped writing was at uni and having other probs as well, we eventually lost touch. I often hope that she will return one day as I loved her refreshing style and interesting pov but yes she left a few WIPs that I would love to see finished. I fully intend to keep writing as I enjoy it and it is a great creative outlet. I enjoy hearing your opinionsand don't always need a 'pat on the back'. I think comments that make me reflect on reasons why I did things and how characters should react are actually good for my writing. I am sorry if my response was harsh - I had jut come back from Happy Hour at work and had imbibed two glasses of very nice wine so was probably not self censoring very well! LOL! Thanks for continuing to read. BTW I did mean what I said about not reading  things you don't like though - I couldn't think of anything worse and there are lots of good writers on this site and others! :)

Reviewer: Maya (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 05:19 AM · On: Chapter 19

I don't think it's a bad fiction, but I do think that a fiction that has Ethan as the most honorable and sympathetic character has problems.  Brian's a shallow character who's damaged by his childhood and held in limbo by his equally damaged boyfriend who sees marrying him as more of a trophy than a life commitment. Therapist Justin basically is windowdressing as a potential love interest who's too apathetic to really treat his patients or to refer them to someone else so he can explore his real emotions.

Ethan did get involved with an engaged man, but Michael made the choice and lead Ethan to believe he cared for him. Ethan got spat on and got hurt far worse than emotionally cheating Brian who tricks,the actually cheating Michael, or Justin the guy who has feelings for Brian, but not so much so  that he can't perform the ceremony to united him with Michael. I feel for Ethan, the other three? Not so much.

Your Killer story sent chills down my spine hoping the bond between Justin and Brian could help them weather any storm and crazed plot. This one scares me cause I'm actually wondering where Ethan went and if he's ok.

 



Author's Response:

WOW!! You like this Ethan - ok I have to go back and look cos I didn't want him as a likeable character just believable. Remember he told Justin he loved him in canon but then at the first opportunity he fucked someone else. I thought the juxtapositioning of his morality as opposed to Brian's who kept Justin's 'rules in the series was one of the things that made the series really great - plus all the cute guys of course! LOL! I don't think either Ethan or Micahel really know what love is at all. So for them to use the words in that way is part of what I meant to make them unlikeable! I really wanted this Ethan to come across as a sleazy character! Thanks for your thoughtful fb; made me think too! Off to update, love to know what you think on this one. :)

Reviewer: Louise (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 04:48 AM · On: Chapter 19

I love this story,especially now that Michael as become the bad guy.I frankly never liked the idea that Brian could ever be in love with Michael,sorry,but if your story ends with Brian and Justin together,it would be a very good ending.



Author's Response:

I am sure I am not spoiling anything if I say that is the plan! Thanks for your fb! Off to update! :)

Reviewer: DS (Anonymous) · Date: March 20, 2010 04:24 AM · On: Chapter 19

Ahh some people need to grow up. There are things in this fic that I don't fully agree with (e.g. Brian crying) but there are still enjoyable aspects of it and I still look forward to an updare each day. The one thing that would REALLY annoy me is if BJ did NOT end up together, so whoever disagreed with that - it just so happens that the majority of people are B&J shippers! Keep writing please!! :)

 



Author's Response:

Thank you! I had trouble with Brian crying too! The only time he cries in canon is when he is in the hospital after Justin is bashed but as I gave this Brian a different backstory (we never really know the extent of the abuse in canon, it is just implied a lot) I thought it a natural response to him finding he does not have the control and safety he thought he had. I don't feel him crying is weak in itself - crying to manipulate is weak but genuine crying as a response is not. (Took me years to learn that!!) Thanks for your response as I said I welcome a chance to reflect on my writing! Off to update! :)

Good riddence to you, Masa!  This is QAF...if Brian and Justin don't end up together, then it wouldn't be QAF!!!!!  If you can do any better,  than go ahead and try!!!  Let's see you do a better job!



Author's Response:

Thank you for your staunch defence. I actually feel sorry for the person - must be awful reading something you don't like. Maybe he/she is really a frustrated writer. I do hope readers enjoy what I write - although taunting and tormenttng readers with many cliffies is fun too! LOL! Please try not to get caught up in another opinion - just do your thing and if you enjoy reading; then read and comment on how you feel about the fic. Flames get nasty when they get personal. Thanks again for your response. :)

I`m a writer myself (or trying to be) and I know how hard it can be (i mean writing). And of course criticism is good sometimes, but only if it is polite one. I believe in such Brian, he had a bad childhood for christ sake, of course he feels betrayed and upset of this. It`s my opinion. I like your story very much, wait each chapter in desperate. Keep going, you are doing good. Cheers :*



Author's Response:

Thank you sooo much! it is great to hear positive fb from a writer too! I agree about criticism and have always tried to keep an open mind about it. I don't think I would like simpering, fawning crits all the time. (My head would get too big to fit through the door! LOL!) We do put ourselves on the line when we write though as it is the end product of our creative process; which is often difficult and fraught all by itself. So thank you for your encouragement. I'll have to go and check out your writing now too! :)

is michael oblivious to the pain he caused or what? he's crying why? because he got caught or because brian came home early and he wasn't suppose to? seems to me he's more upset because he's losing his gravy train instead of his lover. was he planning to continue this fling after the wedding? sure deb will blame brian for michael's affair too.

i do like this brian. i'm not crazy of his choice of partners and i think that it's a cop out on his part but except for kissing and dreaming of more with justin he hasn't gone as far as to have an affair with him like michael did with the weasle. 

however will they work it all out?



Author's Response:

He never got Brian in the slightest, so I think (if he thinks at all) he considers Brian impervious to pain (remember he liked his strength). It is absolutely a cop out on his part - he also chose Michael cos he thought he was 'safe' they were both wrong!! Off to update so you will know soon how it works out!! Thanks for the thoughtful fb!! :)

Reviewer: Masa (Anonymous) · Date: March 19, 2010 10:09 PM · On: Chapter 19

There's not much worth reading in this fandom, and your story is no exception. The only reason that, so far, I've read this story is that it didn't make me puke when I was bored at work and in need of a distraction. Now I'm too bored with it to go on reading. A boring job topped by a boring story; a bit too much I think. There's nothing original about your story; not even once have you surprised me. The closure of this story has never been a secret: BK and JT together, the third guy dumped on some turn. As is the case in 99% of stories in this fandom. Since 99% of the readers are unwilling to read anything else. Such a restriction on creativity never promises good for a story. If the journey to the endgame had been laden with surprises and other interesting things there would've been a story to tell. If you had written the characters better there might have been a story here, too, but you did lousy work on them, too. As others have commented, they have lost too much of their original personalities. You've turned them into empty plot-devices. Not one of them seems real to me. Even your writing style is nothing special. So, farewell.



Author's Response:

Please pardon my amused response! I get such a kick out of someone who claims to enjoy good writing (whatever that is) reading fan fic for enlightened reading. Not many of us are professional writers, most (such as myself are poor amateurs at best)! Might I suggest you log onto some of the sites that have real books as there are many and you can read Jane Austen, Dickens, Shakespeare, etc to your heart's content. While I am sure I will miss such an erudite and tolerant reader I feel for your own benefit you may wish to cease reading BJ altogether! AS I often inform my students and children, these are  choices you make and if you are bored by something - change your thinking. I must admit to feeling a little sorry for you as you sound truly miserable. Hope things improve soon. :)

He needs Justin, but crying like a baby over what Michael did? Brian "F'n" Kinney? Not for all the Prada in the world!! This might be an interesting independent fiction, but nothing here even slightly resembles the characters on QAF. You gave them the names, but none of their spirit or passion.

Justin seems like a decent guy who deserves better than a shallow wimp with no real idea what he wants or who he is. He deserves a man who can love him, not settle cause Michael cheated. This is the first fiction that has actually made me dislike Brian as a person, not just his actions.

You have written 2 other great fics, this one I need a mind enema to help me forget it. Sorry. :}

 



Author's Response:

Thanks for giving your opinion. :)

Reviewer: Dawna (Anonymous) · Date: March 19, 2010 05:11 AM · On: Chapter 18

WTF!!!!  Excuse my french - but it's hard to imagine Brian crying like a baby over anything "Mickey" does.  I never really bought their friendship portrayed on the show and never, ever do I read fanfic that have Brian/Michael paired together - and now I wish I never started reading this one. Way to much time spent on M/B as a couple. Another thing that bugs me is why would Brian even agree to marry that toad in the first place. The relationship should really be more brother like not romantic- yes Michael may have been there when Brian needed someone to help him deal with his horrible childhood but should Brian pay him back by giving up his soul? Your version of Brian comes off as weak willed with no backbone. He kind of deserves to be with Michael - Justin is a step up that he shouldn't have the right to have. That's harsh but I feel you've written Brian into a corner - he's not very likeable or fun to read about at this point. And to add to my dissatisfaction- you allow him to have the nerve to say he needs Justin - Plueeze! Justin deserves better than a confused, cuckold fuck up like this verson of Brian. Why should he be the rebound guy? Sorry about the rant (smiles) but I'm sad because this story started out so good!! now I'm debating if I'll even finish it. (sad smile) but I will say Killer instinct was AWESOME!!!!!! that was curling up with cookies and hot chocolate worthy and a good book on a rainy day worthy!! 1 of my top 3 fav QAF fanfics ever! that's why I'm so sad about this story. Hope you turn it around but I'm backing away for now. ( very sad smile) I will say you are one fantastic story-teller. Good luck!



Author's Response:

WOW!! Thanks I think! I am soo pleased you liked KI, it is still one of my favs. Sorry if this is not to your liking, as I said before I am following how I think it would go given these circumstances  - I have portrayed  Brian as 'very damaged' and to me his reactions a natural not 'weak'. I don't mean to have Justin as 'rebound' guy, he is the person Brian has a genuine attachment to, not in a co-dependent way but as a person to grow with and find genuine passion and love with; neither of which he has with Michael. I would be interested to know if you do end up finishing it if you found the ending satisfactory but that is entirely up to you. Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to explain your feelings, it is appreciated. :)

Reviewer: Sarah (Anonymous) · Date: March 19, 2010 05:11 AM · On: Chapter 18

A pretty good AU fiction that definitely puts a a new spin on the characters. None of them really resemble their namesakes other than the names.

Brian seemed pretty content to marr yMichael with few real regrets. He had come to terms with Michael and professed his love in front of Justin with real feeling and resolve. Now his going to Justin makes Justin the consoloation guy that gets him cause Michael messed up, not because Brian really loves him. To be honest this incarnation of Justin deserves better than this version of Brian.



Author's Response:

Thank you. I am pretty sure that I didn't say in the ep that he was going straight to Justin, just that a small voice was tellin him to do so. I also don't think he ever really came to terms with a relationship with Mike - he honestly felt that, but those feelings don't necessarily add up to the soul-consuming love he may get to feel with Justin in an adult relationship. His feelings for Michael relate to the times of safety he felt as a child when he was with Michael and Debbie and he is reluctant to let go of those feelings, then to have that ripped away or the facade revealed for what it was, proved to be quite devastating for him. It is nice to see people sticking up for Justin though! Thanks for letting me know your thoughts and feelings. :)

You're brought this to its' logical conculsion.  He had to catch Mikey, and of course he would be hurt!  Just because he wasn't in love with Mikey, he did love him.  And that love was betrayed.  And I'm glad you put at the end that he was 'fighting' the urge to breakdown and cried, but didn't show him actually doing it. Like I said, he loves Mikey, but he's not in love with Mikey.  Time to find his true love!  JUSTIN! lol  Great story

Reviewer: Anonymous (Anonymous) · Date: March 18, 2010 08:32 PM · On: Chapter 18

I like it.  It totally makes sense that even though Brian wasn't really all about this wedding, he was invested.  Mikey was stability to him and I totally agree that he would be extremely upset about it.  Brian is, after all, human and i do believe that anyone would be blown away when they find out they've been betrayed.  I'm excited now to see how he's going to handle it.



Author's Response:

Thank you soo much! That was what I was after, the fact that he was invested - that this was how he saw his future and even though it was a fuck up it was his fuck up! After his truly messed up childhood he wanted stability and control and he had both of those (he thought) with Mike. Thanks again for your fb! :)

I loved this chapter - I don't like Michael's character on the show at all so I'm all for Mikey's guilt to eat at him- and if he falls for Ethan that's even better - but I got a feeling that Michael's not gonna be that sorry that he pulled a Brian.  What I could see happening is Ethan and Mickey teaming up to keep Brian and Justin apart.  I'm ready for a little action. Let the red-haired rescuer go for Justin big time. Brian needs to see others may want Justin as much as he does. A little competition never hurt anything.

You are soo very right. It did get so much worse already. We have Michael and Brian as engaged lovers, Justin as a conflicted and morally deficient therapist/artist, and now Ethan to add to the party. UUHHHGGG!!  Throw in a graphic Ted/Emmet or Deb/Carl sex scene and you'll have the ultimate Horror on Liberty Avenue story.

I wish you much luck with this story and have all the faith it'll entertain many, but Brian/Mickey and Justin/Ethan is too much for me to enjoy. This is where I get off this ride.

Thanks again - happy reading other fics! :)

Reviewer: Berryhill (Anonymous) · Date: March 09, 2010 12:22 AM · On: Chapter 10

Altho I'm loving the push & pull and hot action of B/J. I simply cannot buy that Brian could have sex with Mickey on a reg. basis in a relationship. I buy those stories where Brian has sex when he's fucked up out of his head with Mikey and then feels obligated maybe for a short time to do a relationship. But i think Brian would feel like it was incest, because the guy does have a moral code and I don't think he was ever that attracted to Michael to have sex with him. Otherwise they would've been have sex when they were teenagers.

Author's Response:

I think Brian is just clinging to Mikey I think the sex is very secondary for him at this stage. HE did 'almost' have sex in canon when they were both in the horny and experimental stage. Brian is very messed up in the head in this fic! He will come to realise what is wrong soon but the situation will get worse before it gets better! Thanks for sharing your thoughts  and feelings, much appreciated! :)

Still loving this story. The interactions between Justin and Brian is combusible and heartfelt. But the ever present feeling of dread is in every sentence. The entire chapter, I kept waiting for Michael to burst in and catch them or reassert his position in Brian's life. Very sad read at this point.

The stage is set, I'm really hoping this Brian gets some guts soon, cause his wishy-washy way of dealing with everyone is starting to get to me. And to be honest an emotionally cheating fiancee with an unprofessional and amoral therapist is bothersome.

 

 



Author's Response:

I really know what you mean about the therapist especially as when I first wrote this my second daughter was considering becoming a psychologist - since then she has graduated; was working as is now doin her PHd! So I am especially aware of the need for professional attitude (in reality it would be necessary for J to pass B&M over to another counsellor). It is one reason why there is so much push pull but I try not to let them get too carried away! Thanks soo much for your thoughtful fb, I am trying not to make Brian too wishy washy, but he is suffereing from chronic stress disorder due to his very abusive childhood.

Author's Response:

YUP!! That is why it is sooo much fun to try to put right . . . or I am a glutton for punishment - not sure which! LOL! Thanks for lettin me know how you feel! :)

Reviewer: Dawna (Anonymous) · Date: March 07, 2010 03:38 AM · On: Chapter 9

That was awesome! Can't wait for the "real" relationship to begin. Michael and Brian together makes me ill. I hate the thought of those two having a longterm sexual relaionship- Michael in canon is an idiot and I love that you are keeping true to character (LOL) - Brian would never had clicked with him sex wise and  I never bought a friendship between them. I hope you plan to have Justin offer counseling privately for Brian



Author's Response:

I try not to think of them is 'sexal congress' at all!! This was all my muse's idea!! The latter is an excellent idea!! Thanks for your thoughtful fb. It is much appreciated! :)

Reviewer: shimayo (Anonymous) · Date: March 07, 2010 01:48 AM · On: Chapter 9

Yes Brian, you'll be definitely loved and safe with Justin!     oh, Michael is still around? Not for a  longtime anymore, I guess... no, I hope...no I dream of...lol 

Nice chapter!



Author's Response:

Lovely dream but!! However then the fic would be over and we can't have that yet and sometimes the more we struggle to achieve something the more we appreciate it when we get it!! Thanks for your inspiring fb though! Love it!! :)

Reviewer: Gina Marie (Signed) · Date: March 06, 2010 11:54 PM · On: Chapter 9

Ok, things are really heating up!  Love that Brian is opening up.  Soon he's going to realize though he loves Michael, it's not 'romantic' love.  And he's going to realize his feelings for Justin are real.

Great chapter!



Author's Response:

I think Brian is opening up more than he ever has, but he is also still very willing to quickly shut down again! We all know it ia not romantic love he feels for Mikey  - but maybe he has never been 'taught' the difference. Thanks for the great fb! Off to update before I tacke the dreaded HW! :)

Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: March 06, 2010 11:39 PM · On: Chapter 9

great chapter.

the torment they're putting themselves through is painful.

i hope he finds someone for brian to talk with.



Author's Response:

Isn't it wonderful how bad we can feel for them!!?? LOL! It is painful to watch though - but then birth is too! Thanks for your fantastic fb - love to know your thoughts! :)

Reviewer: Anonymous (Anonymous) · Date: March 06, 2010 09:53 PM · On: Chapter 9

this story gets better and better. it feels like the attraction is a little fast, but at the same time it still feels right. :) great work. can't wait for the next chapter



Author's Response:

Thank you very much! I agree about the reactions bein fast and was concerned as I wrote it (debated with myself a bit!) but in the first ep it was that fast under the pole so I thought it was ok! Thank you again you guys have made my morning after a truly horrible day yesterday! :)

I love the other stories you have written and I have been having an inner battle with myself as to whether or not I should read this one. Not a fan of B/M, so I had told myself to wait till you were done with this one. But I really couldn't hold out anymore. I LOVE THIS STORY!!! I love your writing stye and how you can manage to get me to FEEL what my Brian is experiencing. The story line is amazing and this would not be a B/J story without the trials and tribulations that is known to be B/J. I just read all the chapters in one sitting and I just want to let you know your chapters excellent. I am looking forward to the next update :o) Keep up the great work!!!!

 



Author's Response:

So very happy you like this!! Believe me I am not a fan of B/M either - as this story attests! You made my day with this review thank you sooo much = more on the way! :)

Reviewer: BluvsJ (Anonymous) · Date: March 06, 2010 09:33 PM · On: Chapter 9

OMG.... I didn't think it was possible to hate Mikey anymore than I already did....but.. this is ridiculous...he doesn't understand anything about Brian..  and they have been friend's for a hundred years!!!! and yet Brian chose him as his.. "LIFE PARTNER"... WHY????...  Justin already knows more about Brian than Mikey ever will...  the fact that you didn't answer my question makes me think that they will stay "together" till the very end.... so as much as I love the way you write.... I will wait till this is completed to finish reading....because in case you haven't noticed.... I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE.... Brian and Mikey stories... LOL.... Thanks...



Author's Response:

I think Justin knew more about Brian than Mikey the minute they walked through the door! I don't think Mike knows anything about this Brian - just what he thinks he know!  I do let you know the 'why' a bit later - there have been hints! So happy that my fic can stir up such strong emotions! Grinning from ear to ear! :)

Reviewer: Dawna (Anonymous) · Date: March 06, 2010 08:17 AM · On: Chapter 8

Yeah!!!  Brian can feel that Justin's special. Justin needs to meet someone that he thinks can take his mind off of Brian and try dating him and Brian should total flip out of jealousy! (LOL) you don't need me telling you how to plot your story. I'm loving this! and the quick updates are much appreciated.



Author's Response:

Ouch! That could really backfire though! On them both!! So glad you like the quick updates it makes it easier when it is already written and all I have to do is polish a little! I love hearing your ideas, plot or otherwise!! :)

Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: March 05, 2010 10:49 PM · On: Chapter 8

brian knows he so fucked just by telling justin he wouldn't be just another trick. i think justin should refer them to another counselor. perferrably one ben bruckner.



Author's Response:

Once more you are soooo right - for Brian to admit that anyone could be more than a trick is huge in iteself! I have a funny feeling that there is no way Brian would ever go to another counsellor in this part of his life anyway! I love to hear your ideas!! :)

Reviewer: Kate (Anonymous) · Date: March 05, 2010 07:55 AM · On: Chapter 7

Oh that was fun.  Debbie to the rescue...  or not.  Looking forward to more!



Author's Response:

Sooo glad you thought it was fun too! Of course I couldn't let them have too much fun could I? Hence Deb's appearance! Thanks for the great fb! :)

Reviewer: Dawna (Anonymous) · Date: March 05, 2010 06:32 AM · On: Chapter 7

OHHHHH!!  Debbie would be the one to catch them! The Michael/Brian couplehood needs to end NOW. I'm ready for some serious B & J! Michael will hate Justin forever when Brian admits to be falling for the blonde cutie.



Author's Response:

Yeah I thought I had to make it Debbie for the full dramatic value!! LOL! I think Mike saw Justin as a threat to his relationship with Brian from teh beginning of the series and behaved accordingly all through QAF! Believe me the B&M relationship was on the rocks before it even started!! It can't last too much longer although there are a 22 eps in this fic! Thanks for your thoughtful fb! :)

Reviewer: BluvsJ (Anonymous) · Date: March 05, 2010 05:37 AM · On: Chapter 7

OK.... what was Debbie doing at Woody's??? did her little baby boy send her to check on Brian???   I have a question that I know you WON'T answer... but... I will ask anyway... lol...  will Brian and Mikey break-up anytime.... BEFORE... the fic is completed or at the very end??? 



Author's Response:

Nah she wouldn't be in that kind of shenanigans!!?? I think she just went for a drink and to socialise with her boys, but you'll have to read on to find out! Mwa ha ha ha!! You are right I won't answer the other except to say you have to read to find out! Walks off whistling and twirling moustache to add the the evil vibe!! LOL! Thanks for hanging in, hopefully it will be worth it in the end! :)

WOW.... I know exactly how Justin felt when he saw Brian kiss Mikey... it made me nauseous.... just thinking about it...  lol..  I have a great idea.... since he loves them so much... why not have Mikey get run over by a truck that's delivering... comic books!!!!!



Author's Response:

LOL! Love it! It would make for a very short fic but!! LOL! Hope someone picks it up as a plot bunny though! Still grining! :)

Reviewer: patheticgal (Anonymous) · Date: March 04, 2010 07:21 AM · On: Chapter 6

please update soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and hope michael will be out of the scene............. sorry,for being bad!!!!

thanks................



Author's Response:

Updating tonight! It;s not being bad, it is being honest and Mike as not meant to be a character you hold much empathy with in this fic! Thanks for your inspiring review! :)

Reviewer: scrub13 (Signed) · Date: March 04, 2010 06:07 AM · On: Chapter 6

I've always been a sucker for an AU that is original and has a new twist on things. And I'm loving the interactions and inner thought of both Justin and Brian. But to be brutally honest I think the story has a problem that I can't yet get past. Michael as Brian's fiancee is causing me to look forward to the resolution rather than enjoying the ride of the story. I was never a huge Michael fan, but he seems even more juvenile and simple minded than usual. He seems more fixated on his comic books than marrying Brian. And Brian has no desire to be with, much less marry Michael. I keep wondering why either of them want to gt married. Then I remember that's the way the hook of the story. They really don't.

I am really enjoying a more subdued and ethical Justin struggling with his desires vs his obligations. That part of the story is fantastic.

 



Author's Response:

Got it in one! sorry you are not enjoying that part and I dooo appreciate honesty! I actually think they all have some growing up to do! So glad you are enjoying the bit I particularly want you to enjoy though as that is the part that holds the fascination for me! Thanks again for your thoughtful comments! :)

Reviewer: Yaz (Anonymous) · Date: March 04, 2010 01:37 AM · On: Chapter 1

I was thinking has this been posted somewhere before? Anyway if it has i LOVE this fic, but eew 'nightmares' michael and brian should never and i mean never be together. Love it :)

Author's Response:

Yes it was on another site - I am moving my fic and then posting some new material. So glad you love it still! :)

Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: March 03, 2010 08:57 PM · On: Chapter 6

why doesn't brian get michael to open the comic book store. would save his sanity and keep michael busy.



Author's Response:

Great thinking but I don't think Brian's head is in the right space for that type of thinking! I have this feeling that when he is out of sight of Mikey he prefers not to think about him at all! Thanks for your thoughts! :)

Reviewer: Gina Marie (Signed) · Date: March 03, 2010 03:11 AM · On: Chapter 5

Hey dphysh!  Just caught up with this story.  Looks like Justin has a dilema on his hands.  Love to see how this all turns out!

Hey Gina, happy to have you on board! I have been tryin to catch up with yours all week, but just when I get started RL interferes and I have to leave it then I jsut have time to update, answer reviews then collapse and sleep! (Any way we can dodge the sleep bit, or put more hours in my day, or do you know of any good deserted islands I can run away to?) Glad to see you are intrigued! Love your fb! :)

Reviewer: BluvsJ (Anonymous) · Date: March 03, 2010 12:23 AM · On: Chapter 5

OK.... now that they are  attracted to each other.... how is Justin supposed to do his job...and stay away from Brian at the same time??? and I still don't understand why Brian agreed to get married... it's obvious he still tricks and he seem's to be angry at Mikey for some reason.... it doesn't seem like a match made in "heaven".... lol.... 



Author's Response:

Definitely NOT made in heaven! I do explain why Brian 'feels' he 'should' marry Mikey a little later so I don't want to pre-empt that! He is more angry at the situation he has got himslef into rather than just mad at Mikey although his actions say he definitely resents Mike! So happy you  are still reading and reviewing! :)

That was pure 'me' cos that was how I felt about him in the series! For someone supposed to be 'sensitive' he was such a bloody idiot about Brian! When Brian finally punched him out at the party I sooo wanted to be that fist! LOL!  Glad you are enjoying it too! :)
