I liked the story for the messages. I did not care for that you put someone else in Brian s heart. In the begining of the story it seemed like they were good then when Ryan came along Brian liked his body better then Justin and spent more time sexual and emotionally and playfully with Ryan. He should of only had Justin as his partner and spent the most time with him. I think a 16 yrs old boy with a 34 yrs old Brian is kinda creepy and not right.
Also having all the characters get infected is weird. You should of had Brian marry Justin like they spoke about in the begining and it would of made it look like Brian put him above Ryan like it Should have Been. Maybe you could make changes or maybe your not a Britin fan
Author's Response:
Thank you for reading tihs story and for your review. I have no excuse for my plot except for artistic license. As to not being a Brian fan; it just so happens I was smoking a cigarette with Gale outside a downtown Austin hotel a few days ago. Small world indeed. If you're a girl, you may not understand the mind of gay men in the real world. They're born swingers especially the longer we get into a relationship with a mate. And innergenerational relationships or far from creepy; however, quite common in the gay world internationally.

It's one of the most amazing QAF story I read, thank you very much :). I fall in love in Ryan and I'm glad that you didn't change Brian and Justin's characters a lot.
It was really perfect (and informative!).
Author's Response: It warms my heart to see one of the old stories still entertaining folks. This was one of my favorites too. Thank you for commenting Magda.

This is a weird chapter. Good thing you had that last sentence. :)
Author's Response: Thank you very much f or the review comments. We live for that and you have made my day. I was in a very anti-Michael mood when I wrote this but later in the story it gets better and Michael will basicall be ok. I too have health issues and it may take me a while to answer my comments but know you're appreciated very much Weave the Magic.

Why oh why cant Michael listen to his husband? Ben gave him perfectly good reasons for keeping it to himself.
Author's Response: Michael being Michael. He reminds me of JR in Dallas; the man everyone loves to hate :)

Aside from the vicious backstabbing that Justin and Brian can get in the gay circuit, I think there will be serious repercussions on Brian's business if it comes out that he has aids/hiv. Having aids is still a stigma and the business competitions will be unrelenting on Brian if word comes out that he has aids.
Author's Response: It HIV/AIDS wasn't a sexually transmitted disease it would not be a big deal but people get their panties in a twist about anything sexual :P
Reviewer: Weave the Magic (Signed) · Date: January 28, 2013 07:54 PM · On: The Group
The facts on aids are very educational and quite eye-opening. Thank you. Also, I am relieved that you did not go through a lot of chapters before these two revealed their health conditions to each other, nor did we have Brian waste precious time before getting the proper medication.
Author's Response: As a gay man I'm not too proud to say this is a subject I'm way too familiar with. I wanted a love story with hope, not a lot of sadness so I bounce them from the sad stuff fast.
Reviewer: Weave the Magic (Signed) · Date: January 28, 2013 07:19 PM · On: June 1, 2005
I will try to read this, not really a fan for angstsy stories coz I read fanfics to escape. But this subject matter, plus the big possibility of Brian contracting aids, is quite realistic and beckoning me to read...I just cant bear the thought of our boys suffering. :'(
Author's Response: So sorry to miss this review! This is not a story with a lot of angst. It's sad to start and gets more fun later on.

I never read this fic...... now that it was completed... I thought I would...but... as I was curious to hear Elton John's song... (which I have always loved and never realized what it was about).... anyway... I also read the last chapter.... which just proved to me I was right in not reading the fic in the first place...... while it was not a "death fic"...like I thought it would be....it was a Brian/Justin/Other.....which I hate just as much.... lol.... I will read your new one it sounds like something I would like.... Thanks...
Author's Response:
I'm the same way about Mpreg fics myself. People with HIV do die but usually today of old age and natural causes; not HIV or AIDS anymore if they can get the meds.Merlin and Arthur also have a third male in the mix but it won't be graphic sex all the time either, and perhaps you don't have an invested emotional interest like many do with Brian/Justin. I would love for you to read it and hopefully comment. The hamster is really determined to make it a good one. Thanks for commenting BluvsJ.
Reviewer: balrogtweety (Signed) · Date: February 20, 2011 01:12 PM · On: Epilogue
This was a wonderful story, JT. I loved how you gave us information that some of us didn't know about. I love the video. It had me in tears. I never heard this song before but makes a statement.
Thanks ofr giving us love in our lives.
Author's Response: Glad you enjoyed the story and could gain a more valid view on HIV/AIDS. There's so much miss-information out there and myths we need to replace that with the simple facts that hold a lot of hope for HIV victims and people who care for them. Love you!
Reviewer: Terri (Signed) · Date: February 20, 2011 12:51 AM · On: Epilogue
What a beautiful ending to such a wonderful story JT. It was entertaining and very educational without preaching. That video song by Elton John had me in tears by the end. I never heard that song before and it is perhaps his most emotional one I know of. This one moved me even more than "England's Rose" at Lady Di's funeral. Thank you for posting it.
Author's Response:
Thank you Terri for commenting. I've been a huge fan of Elton since he started in 1970 when I was a young gay twink. His songs were hidden messages to fellow gay people everywhere. This song is without a doubt one of his finest works. I knew before this video it was about a son with AIDS when he mentioned "this fire under my skin". I heard patients dying of AIDS describe that symptom in the final stages. We had no HIV meds for many years and the AIDS quilt of lost souls has over 40,000 people on it from just the USA alone - mostly men.
303,000 U.S. people died before 1997 and the meds changed our nightmare.
On a lighter note: I hope you enjoy my new Merlin tale.

Love Gus's gift! I've ridden in a Maybach, (a few times) very luxurous cars! A friend of ours has these horse shows and Maybach is one of their sponsors. Gus is a lucky boy!
Thank you so much for this story JT. I hope everyone reads this. It's well written, sexy and very educational. And I love the happy ending!
Love EJ too! Great vid.
Author's Response: Thank you Gina for all your support. As a writer you know how much feedback fuels the writing muse to move forward. I believe I said what needed to be said with this story and pretty much covered all the medical stuff for guys anyway. Women who are positive can have children if their viral load is undetectable, they take special virus blocking meds for the baby, and of course birth by C-section to avoid the mother's blood.
Showtime and Cowlip didn't tell the facts about HIV and AIDS; they instead played for dramatics and told dark miss-information and thus really pissed off the HIV community in the process. Instead of sharing the truth that could lessen gay discrimination they made it worse.
Considering all the rare hopeless diseases out there (and if HIV wasn't a sexually or drug abuse transferred disease causing social stigma) it really isn't a bad disease to have if you can get the HIV meds.
I think of the children dying of rare Cancers and Adavanced Diabetes and realize how lucky one is to only deal with HIV today.

Reviewer: balrogtweety (Signed) · Date: January 25, 2011 04:32 PM · On: A cure?
This is truly unbelievable. This could cure many if not all HIV/AIDS people.
Author's Response:
Because the possibly cured man also endured powerful radiation and deadly chemo therapy (which is fatal in 30% of the cases) thus destroying his on immune system and CD4 cells infected with HIV before the revolutionary stem cell transplant; it is felt the procedure is too dangerous and costly to attempt in research. However it has opened an entirely new door in the battle against HIV/AIDS.
HIV patients who develop blood cancers would qualfy for this procedure if they can afford it because it's too exepermental for insurance payment. Also it took two stem cell transplants to work and not just one. They didn't say that in press interviews.
On another note; I'm taking on a major challenge to write a Merlin/Arthur love story/adventure. Is that something you might like to read? I'm really sticking my neck out on this one :)
I love the period piece it will be, the characters, and the show.

Josh is a doll. Hunter will be very happy with him and likewise. Good to read a very happy ending for them. The medic was toasted black and crispy. Very funny and it wasn't overkill since his own history did him in.
Author's Response: Oh the irony of being homophobic and once a gay male hustler for cash. Truth be told there are several straight boys who let gay men have them for money. Funny as that seems it happens if they are hot looking. Love you!

Forgive me for falling behind in reading. Holidays are very hectic here. What is Brian up to? I am afraid for that medic with a mad Brian on his tail. Sad about the HIV group but I can understand it being reality. I am learning so much with this story JT.

Such a sad chapter, but probably true of most HIV + people. Can't wait to find out what happens to the paramedic. Knowing the hampster, it's bound to be something perfectly justifiable.
Author's Response: Being alone is often a symptom of HIV for too many people. I can say things are much better than it once was in the beginning of the disease. The hamster wore his "Brian cap" and dreamed up the perfect revenge for the anti-gay paramedic. He should have known not to cross Brian Kinney. Love you and hope you have a fabulous New Year!

caan't wait to see what brian has in store for that para-medic. should be interesting for sure. hope you had a nice xmas in the 72 degree heat. not the same without snow for me. going to times sq to see the ball drop. going to be a long happy night i hope. happy new year lol
Author's Response: Brian will just expose a piece of his past to pay him back. A very easy "get even" for the ad man this time. Texas weather is so nuts; 72 one day and 30 the next; very rarely does it snow here too. NY Times Square should be a mob of nearly a million people. Sounds like fun to me. I'll watch you on CNN from the comfort of my climate controlled living room sofa :) as I eat my black eyed peas on corn bread. We do that in the south on New Years for good luck.

This was a very informative, and sad chapter. I feel so bad for those people in that group. I also feel bad for that paramedic! I have a feeling Brian's going to make his life a living Hell!
Author's Response: There is some rejection by dates but it really isn't that bad for the most part; however, some guys make it worse and isolate themselves for years and years and just give up while others can thrive while living with HIV. It's all a state of mind. The paramedic did a no-no when he was a teenager and Brian will make it known to his boss and peers next chapter. Should be fun to see it go down for the man.

My husband and I love London and have visited there many times over the years. Piccadilly Circus is a mad house mob of people day or night. Rarely is there enough room to breath much less shoot a commercial. I guess you could rope it off or something.
The flu and colds are as dangerous in Europe as they are in the USA probably. Especially if your very young or very old too. Someone with HIV would need to stay healthly. I laughed at $350 Gucci underwear. I can only imagine how much were the matching t shirts.
Author's Response: I've seen such expensive underwear and except for the label I can't tell them from a pair of Hanes for that matter. London is one of my favorite cities in the world and have got there twice. I'd live in the UK if I could swing it.
Reviewer: Gina Marie (Signed) · Date: December 23, 2010 11:23 PM · On: Influenza
350 for underwear! *rolls eyes* So funny. So Brian.
Dealing with sickness is part of the diease, always falling to one ailment or another. I can't imagine how difficult that must be, and now I understand why it's important they stay in the best health.
Another thing I learned, though not HIV/AIDs related, is that companies have to have enough logged flying hours on their private jets in order to use it as a tax credit. Interesting, and explains why often, especially hollywood types, don't mind lending their jets out.
Another great chapter.
Author's Response: It never ceases to amaze me what people will spend for a damn label on a piece of clothing. Sometimes it's quality too; I have an Armani leather jacket that has lasted me for many years I got as a gift when most jackets would be worn out by now. Not getting sick is very important for the poz crowd, and yes sometimes people can act very funny and down right rude. They don't do it to others with different medical conditions but since it is a sexually transmitted disease it has the stigma. Love you and Happy New Year beautiful.

Paramedics are bound by HIPAA laws,did you know that any health care worker,from the top on down,that pulled a stunt like that would be fired,and could definately be sued? Probably the company he works for,too. Where I work,you can't even acknowledge that a patient exists to anyone from outside of the facility.When we escort a patient somewhere,we can't even say their name in public let alone any medical info. Nail the guy, J.T.- and not in a positive,life-affirming manner!
Author's Response: As an ex-EMT II with years of public service in California on a private ambulance I know all too well that what you say is the truth. Medical people do mess up or in the case of this guy--just don't care and have a fear of HIV/AIDS. I'll have to think about it since no one wants to tell Brian it happened, and if he complains it could only make matters worse. "If you stir shit ..... it stinks" comes to mind with this situation. It does show an example of some of the ways HIV+ people get treated even in the medical community. Things are much better than in the beginning of HIV/AIDS but there is still ignorance and fear out there too. Thank you very much for commenting Susan. You have given me an excellent plot idea to consider very seriously. I'll get the hamster to chew on it.

This is wonderful news for Justin and Brian. I'm glad Brian straightened out Deb about Ryan. Isn't it great to be a blond with blue eyes????
Author's Response: The CCR5 delta 32 mutation is possible in many types of people but mostly blond and blue people from Scandanaivian countries have it and some people in England and/or their decendents. The mutation is believed to have happened to battle Smallpox and later the Black Plague in the Middle Ages. Thank you for commenting balrogtweety.

Once more Bob you have peeled back the lack of knowledge on HIV with your story. As a gay man some of this I already knew but far too many know nothing of the data you have added to this story which paints a much clearer picture of HIV and AIDS in the world today. Not to mention this is a great plot to read.

Tons of great HIV information with the contrast of Michael and Justin's infections. PEP treatment is good to know if anyone ever thinks they have been exposed to HIV.

Wow, what a mind blowing chapter! Where to begin? An amazing amount of information! I can't believe the education I'm getting! The different strains of HIV, the DNA aspect, the meds. So much to absorb!
I understand now why you infected Michael so badly, so that you can explore all the different kinds, treatments and ramifications of the disease. The difference between HIV and AIDS and even the differences with in those two classifcations. So complicated, yet you are unraveling the mystery perfectly, and clearly.
For once I'm glad Debbie has a big mouth! She's learning. And I'm glad Brian went to talk to Michael and his paying for his plane ticket to see his duaghter. Michael is just pathetic.... He not only hurts others, he hurts himself.
And I was happy to see Ryan giving Brian and Justin time alone together. I think it's important to keep balance, as you stated.
Excellent, excellent chapter! I'd give this chapter a blue ribbon on it's own if I could!
Author's Response: There is a lot of new information on HIV/AIDS and I hope to spoon feed it to the readers without being preachy or overwhelm them with all the data. Let the details come in as they apply to the plot. Billions have been spent and are being spent on this condition and they are getting outstanding results from the research globally.

Wow! Deb, Deb, Deb. <knocking head against screen> Always one to start the drama. Makes for a good chapter though. I love how Brian is so protective of Justin, making him go to the doctor when the condom broke. I won't say poor Michael. Maybe he'll grow up now. Now that Justin has CCR5 delta 32 Mutation, can they use his blood like a vaccine?
The information in this chapter was really great.

Author's Response: There is an American in Germany who they believe is cured of HIV by a stem cell transplant with a donor that has the CCR5 delta 32 mutation. He has been free of HIV for over 3 years. It's cutting edge research and more about it can be found HERE. Thank you for commening YumYumPM.

LOL!!! What a great start, giving Ryan to Ted and Blake. Love the puppy named Ryan. Pics not bad either. The information on the tat was great too. Poor Michael <smirk> not only does he have just about every strain one could get, he doesn't have any insurance. No matter how you look at it Michael's Doomed. Isn't Emmett from Atlanta? Wouldn't it be funny if Michael met them and...there I go again. Love this story, where else could you get a wealth of information and lots of SEX!
Author's Response: You really didn't think they would give the real Ryan away did you? Hell no! Michael is needed as a character who is super-infected for the story. The fact he's a middle aged man with a mid-life crisis becoming a whore to get sex like there's no tomorrow also shows how some idiots in the gay community act too. More soon YumYum and thank you very much for commenting.

Ryan was very naive to tall to Debbie. Everyone knows about him and that could get ugly down the road. The gossip group was full speed ahead once Debbie got started.

I am going to assume I am just slow and can't follow. This story went from wow, this is interesting to WTF. I may have missed something but, it seems all your stories have the same theme, big cocks, multiple lovers and some kind of mystical happenings. The purposely giving some one HIV does nothing for me either, this is just my feeling, not trying to be negative or start some crazy stuff.
I will look for your next story, i do love your writing style and the tone of your story telling.
Author's Response:
What can I say. Big cocks is a gay guy thing. I know because I'm a gay guy. Maybe I make it a little thicker than reality with artistic license :) There are guys that big in the world too.
One extra lover isn't multiple lovers. Established powerful gay couples sometimes have a permanant third lover between them. It happens in the real gay world. We're not straight people. That's allowed in our world if all parties can emotionally handle it, and can afford to do it.
In previous stories I got mystical but nothing like that has happend in this story. Ryan's very beautiful and makes the kind of big money a top shelf model in advertising can make. It's not mystical.
No one purposely gave Michael HIV. They also didn't stop him from getting it either. We don't know if he got it from Ryan; he could have. And with his behavior in the backroom and baths after losing Ben he was going to get very infected (super infected) anyway. Michael made himself an enemy of Brian and Justin by running his mouth and almost destorying them in the process. So they just said to hell with him and stopped caring for him. Even Ben threw in the towel about Michael. His HIV status was left to fate. After living with a man with HIV he knew better than to act the way he did and swallow. He didn't even try to spit it out with Ryan. Remember?
Saying suggestive words to a near 36 year old man doesn't make it real unless he wants to follow the suggestive thinking with his lust. Michael did it to himself; if you followed the lines leading up to his "date" with Ryan or Reactor. Anyone with half a brain would know that something was very wrong with that picture, but not Michael who didn't listen to anything but his own voice foaming at the mouth.Had he read beteen the lines they were telling him the score but he only saw a hot boy with a big one and he wanted it. He even paid for it. Duh?
I needed someone superinfected to continue the story's purpose to educate about HIV. Michael became that someone and you don't know how his horrible situation will turn out yet. It just beginning to be part of the story with the latest chapter. Don't assume the worse Ana.
Ryan isn't in the story just as an extra hot lover. He also presents the reality that the very young and beautiful also get HIV in the real world and have to deal with it, and sometimes they get it by incest at a very young age; boys and girls. I also didn't want Justin getting HIV from Brian for my story since that emotional baggage would have dominated the plot and that's not the direction I went into.
This is a complex plot and you're not slow at all. I hope I've been able to bring this very difficult story theme to a better understanding for you.
The bottom line is a truthful story about HIV/AIDS, with real facts, no myths or sugercoating, and hopefully an entertaining story along the way because preaching about HIV isn't reaching many people.
Sometimes the hamster gets carried away with his imagination. I'll try to keep him from making the story too weird for readers like yourself. Your points are vaild.

You had me going there thinking Ryan was going to live with Ted and Blake. That was too funny for words. Excellent plot!
Michael is very sad but he knew better than to behave like that and had to know the risk of his sexual behavior. I can't foresee how you're going to take the Michael subplot next. He is such a whiner I think he may do that first and who knows what can happen to him?
Give the hamster a cookie because this is very good.
Author's Response: Ted got his puppy Ryan which is what he wanted, right? :) Michael is my character to be superinfected and we can explore what HIV/AIDS is for someone like that next and see some of the latest medical breakthroughs with this disease by his example. Cookie delivered and thank you!

"What does Ryan say about it?"
"He doesn't say much; he just chews and sucks anything you put in his mouth."
I laughed so hard when I read that...of course at the time I thought Brian was talking about Ryan! lol Nice joke on Ted.
I never knew about the tattoo, that's what I love about this story. I learn so much. I wonder if the boys are going to 'come out' and get one. Big brave move.
I have to admit the Michael scene was very disturbing to me. The most infected person in the world? I can't imagine how sick he's going to be...and possibly die. It's very, very tragic. As much as he's a fuck up, I do hope they help him in Atlanta. No one deserves to die a horrible death from Aids.
Great, great update.
Author's Response: Brian's a master of the spoken word and persuasion. Ted shoud have seen that one coming but all he had on his mind was teenage Ryan so he missed it, thus he got a new puppy!
The tattoo is the real thing in the gay world and the HIV community, straight and gay.
Michael is the most infected in the USA, not the world. There are many prostitiutes in Africa worse off than he is. I needed a superinfected person and Michael is the one. Hint: He lives.

Author's Response: I can't hurt our Teddy bear, but messing with his head is too delicious to avoid that temptation :) Michael will be able to show us the latest in HIV/AIDS research and how the superinfected are dealt with to save them. I needed such a character in the story. There is one more type of HIV infected person to introduce later and Justin will fit that example. Thank you for your comments balrogtweety.

If I didn't know better, and I probably don't, I'd thing that girl deliberately told her boyfriend because Ryan didn't lust after her. The bodyguard was an excellant idea and now Ryan's got a new friend. What's up with Ted. Will he be able to keep his mouth shut? I best get to the next chapter fast, fast, fast.

family gossip, gotta love it. I hope Ryan learns a lesson from this, NEVER tell your secrets to family. They can be the worse gossipers! I hope Michael doesn't get any ideas about suing Ryan. As much as I hate Mel, she had a point. If Ryan knowingly gave Michael HIV, he could be in trouble. Now I know he didn't technically know, but the boys knew. They introduced him as reactor, (or something like that. I remember you telling me the name was code for someone infected, and Michael should have piced up on it) If Micheal remembers that, the shit could hit the fan. Though like Mel said, I doubt he'd have any case, much less a weak one, since he's been fucking and sucking everythign in sight.
Such a mess... But I'm glad Ted wasn't the big gosspier. I like Ted. And I cant' wait to see how Brian teases him about trying to 'steal' his boy. lol
Author's Response: Ryan will surely learn from this as you mentioned. Michael isn't bright enough to smell fresh coffee much less an old brew. Mel was just being a lawyer thinking out loud. There's no real threat of suing Ryan here. I like Ted too and he's a fun character to write about. Love you for the comments Gina and for reading this.

It's amazing how gossip can get out of control especially with Deb at the wheel. Great update.
Author's Response: That was just a taste of the crap people with HIV have to deal with all the time too. Everyone talks behind your back and soon the news in town is you have 3 months to live, and anyone who ate at your house is infected and God help anyone known to have sex with you in the last 5 or 10 years. Their reputation is shot too. I've seen gossip get so bad guys move out of town or attempt suicide. Thanks for commenting.

Ted is going to mess up if he tries to come between the boys.
Great chapter.
Love and kisses.
Author's Response: Congrats on being the 200th reviewer and getting the next chapter dedicated to you Lorie. I have to go out of town for a while and will answer all my comments upon returning.

"If he's cute maybe I can use him when I don't have either one of you around to get me off." Ryan said with a boyish grin that was too adorable.
"One young hopelessly ugly straight security goon coming right up." Brian took out his phone and called his security company for Kinnetik.
LOL Loved that! Jealous Brian is always a turn on. Looks like Ted might be trouble. The family is still meddleing. I'm surprised at Ted, he should have talked to Brian about his concerns, not Ryan! *shakes head* when will they ever learn?
Another great chapter. I hope you're feeling well, I love the quick updates, but please take care of yourself.
Author's Response: Next chapter is posted and surprisingly it's not Ted who spills the beans. Brian knows Ryan won't trick out on their special relationship but he was having fun with the banter. Jealous? Probably but he won't admit it to save his life. Love you girl.

Even if he wasn't a model someone as beautiful as Ryan might need protection anyway. Ted is so sick. I bet he and Blake wanted Ryan for their sex toy too. A horny man has no morals. I may be a married woman but I think I know men. I've had friends of my husband hit on me behind his back.
Author's Response: Jo I can't believe you said that online! What if your husband ever sees it? Do you know the shit that would cause you guys? Ted's a gay man and Ryan's too hot to resist for any gay guy. Love you for all the comments dear.

Being famous comes with a price. I hope Ted keeps his mouth shut. Man!!!
Author's Response: Next chapter is posted and Ted isn't at fault for once. Love you.

Now I get caught up on all my reviews with this chapter. I loved the details how Justin and Brian took care of the Craig situation and did it with such permanent success. Joey and Molly can see each other and Justin can still see his sister. Ryan, Leo Brown and Kinetic are safe again. Craig gets a bed, three meals a day and all the prison punks he wants to love. Justice can be very sweet.
Author's Response: Wow! Thank you for the chapter comments justinsgirl. Let me answer this one for them all in detail. I know how much easier it is when you have many chapters to read and I'm glad to have been able to make that possible for you. When the hamster's hot we kick them out provided I'm in good health to work at the keyboard. I have such a reserve of knowledge and experiences to use for this plot this story practically writes its self. My only concern is how to organize the events for the novel to unfold with the best entertainment value for my readers. Good folks like you motivate me to write since you care enough to comment for each chapter. I do that too when I read a story since I know how much it means to a writer to get that kind of feedback. On average only two people comment out of a hundred sometimes and that's just sad.
You're a sweet heart dear. Thank you so much.

I was so mad reading what Craig was saying to Justin and knew he was making a big mistake threatening them. Brian is too powerful to stand by and allow that to happen to him.
Author's Response: Yep!

Glad that Ryan was ok after being shot by his dad. It looks like the three lovers have a wonderful life together and Ryan is very much loved.
Author's Response: Oh yeah; that kid gets all the fun he wants now.
Reviewer: justinsgirl (Signed) · Date: December 13, 2010 01:31 PM · On: Charles
Very shocking chapter and sad that Ryan loses Charles again just after they get back together. Ryan's father is a sick man and needed to die for what he did and for trying to hurt Ryan. He won't be missed.
Author's Response: Very true

Was Justin getting a little jealous of Brian's attention to Ryan? Having Gus visiting is a good thing for Brian. It gives him another reason to live and take care of himself. The boys get cars and boys love cars too. I can see each one in his vehicle.
Author's Response: Jealous? not really but they play around with it.
Reviewer: justinsgirl (Signed) · Date: December 13, 2010 01:27 PM · On: Busy-Busy-Busy
Good of Ryan to help his family and Brian to help Joan. Sad to read about Cam and what he did to Ryan. He should be punished for it. Interesting medical facts from the doctor and fits in with a story about HIV and AIDS. Funny about Molly and Joey too.
Author's Response: Molly beautiful and so is Joey. It only makes sense there's an attraction there.

I have heard of people losing their benefits if they sell drugs. it's very sad when innocent children get hurt for it however. A sick Brian is nothing good because he has so much life in him. I loved how Justin took charge and demanded he be admitted into the hospital for proper care.
Author's Response: Justin's the bottom in sex and the top were everything else matters.
Reviewer: justinsgirl (Signed) · Date: December 13, 2010 12:55 PM · On: Rodney
This was so sweet that Ryan and Brian comforted Rodney in his final hours. This boy is even more loveable for being so kind to a dying man.
Author's Response: Ryan is more beautiful on the inside.

It was very good of Justin not to be mad at Ryan for his HIV. Looks like Ryan will fit right in and be a beautiful third lover for our boys.
Author's Response: Smart gay guys know better than to get mad at HIV. Shit happens and it takes two to catch it.

You can't punish Michael enough to upset me. He was always one of my least favorite people on the show. Glad Ben dumped him and it would fit Michael to become a slut once free again.
Author's Response: Michael is having a middle age crisis at the same time he lost his husband. The result is to be a whore so he can think that he can still get all the sex he wants. Stupid but guys sometimes act like that.

My computer has been in the shop for a week due to infections. How they got there I have no idea. I got it back today and see 11 more chapters to this wonderful story! I've read them all and want to now comment on each one.
Ryan is a dream boy come true. The story description says Brian/Justin/Other in the categories and me thinks Ryan is going to be the other as I read this chapter.
Author's Response: Yes Ryan is the other and there will not be another "other" with B and J in this story. Ryan is all the 3rd our boys can handle and then some.

ROTFLMAO! How sweet is gay revenge! Maybe Craig can learn to appreciate a pretty boy in prison. This was too much fun and very good to know that the threats are over for them. Can I have Ryan's phone number?
Author's Response: Over Brian's dead body you may have his phone number :D
Reviewer: subbstevie (Signed) · Date: December 13, 2010 12:26 PM · On: Craig
Straight people can be so evil and mean to us and family can be the worse at it since they can hurt us so much. To threaten them like that is beyond any intellegence or understanding. Reading on to see how they deal with Craig and his threats.
Author's Response: Knowing Brian and Justin, Craig is in deep doo doo.
Reviewer: Gary (Signed) · Date: December 13, 2010 12:12 PM · On: Hot Stuff in Pittsburgh PA
if we gay guys had a secret network with the balls to fight back like that we wouldn't be getting stepped on by republicans and christians all the time this was a great chapter very much fun to read
Author's Response: My thoughts exactually. There's a reason other minorities don't get messed with anymore and respect for what they will do to haters is one of them.

if i had hiv and my dad talked to me like that i would what to kick his ass good the next chapter is up i can see where this goes

*Doing a Happy Dance all over the room*
Loved this chapter and the skill our boys used to take Craig down. It's always a pleasure to read the details of your plots as they hatch. I can go to sleep now with a smile on my face knowing they are safe again.
Author's Response: :) I had to tie it up too before sleeping good myself. Love you girl for all your wonderful chapter comments.
