As he felt the pangs of pain and regret bubble to the surface, though, he realized he wasn't mourning what had been – he was mourning what might have been…..

It was so sad that his adoptive family would try to make him miserable even as an adult, but I loved that Justin came at Claire like a pitbull.

It is interesting to see Brian and Justin  interacting with their older counterparts. They are similar but yet you have written them with subtle differences.

I am in nervous anticipation with  Jim Stockwell coming into the picture.



Author's Response:

Thanks for the feedback, my friend - very astute observation there and you are correct; I purposely made Fin and Tony similar to our boys but there ARE some slight differences between them.  I DID want them to be somewhat similiar, though, as I would have expected father and son to be alike in some ways.  And we should all be concerned with Stockwell involved; he is a very evil and vindictive man and I think he's going to create a lot of problems down the road, both on purpose and unintentionally - hope you'll continue to stay tuned as it plays out.  Thanks again for all the comments!:)

Hi,


 


Good bye Claire and don’t come back.


 


Nice chapter.  The line I especially liked in this chapter is:


                     “As he felt the pangs of pain and regret bubble to the


               surface, though, he realized he wasn't mourning what had


                     been he was mourning what might have been…..”


Great line, I would like to add to “might have been”, could have been, and


should have been.  However as we say, “it is what it is.”  We can’t


change history. Since he has gotten out of the Kinney household, his life


as been on the upswing.  Now with Gus and Justin and a brand new


family, everything is looking good.


 


However – this election is going to be very difficult.  I can see troubles a


head. Finn and Brian (I hope) have each other and a good support


system.  Although some of Finn’s political positions (in my opinion) need


rethinking – good luck Finn.  You and Brian and the family are going to


need it.  I got the feeling that the gay issue is going to be a huge


stumbling block.


 


Stockwell is back!  Shit!  Double Shit!

Author's Response:

Hi, David!  As always I look forward to your insightful comments.:)  Thank you for taking the time to read and do that.  Yes, I couldn't resist throwing Stockwell into the fray; although I think he's a homophobic idiot (maybe he and Claire can get together - LOL!), I think he's smart enough to know he needs to stay deep out of sight to do any good.  Otherwise, he's going to wind up doing damage to Turner's campaign.  As you can imagine, there's going to be a lot of twists and turns, both professional and personal, going on in the story.  I hope you'll continue to read and let me know your thoughts.  Thanks again!:)

OK..... this chapter confused me a little...lol........ I understand  from what Claire said...the reason... Jack and Joanie adopted Brian in the first place...but... why was he abused at such a young age??? how on earth could Brian have been such an embarrasment and dissapointment to them as a little boy???  what could Brian have done to make them hate him practically from the day he was born??? Thanks...



Author's Response:

Good questions!  We really didn't get a lot of information about just why Brian was so mistreated, especially by his father; could it be that he displayed some gay tendencies, for example with Michael, and Jack was afraid he would become too 'sissy?'  Of course, Brian wasn't like that as an adult - he actually for the most part hid his feelings - but perhaps that was why he did what he did.  Maybe Brian was just a mischevious, free-spirit growing up and his parents, being older, couldn't handle such a rambunctious child.  I think we'll never really know.  Thanks for the thought-provoking comments!:)

my bad!!  bb told me stockwell wasn't going to be turner's cm--he's going to get all the dirt on fin, tony, brian & justin.  you know how he loves detective thingys.  so, sorry i stand corrected.  see what i have to put up with ha!ha! just kidding.  he likes to keep me on my toes. he said to tell you paper hearts is up to bat.  lol



Author's Response:

Is someone getting antsy here? Ha!  Tell BB I'm working on it - just started the chapter, though, so might not be up until tomorrow - depends upon how fast my thought wheels turn and how fast my fingers type!  There's going to be a lot going on in this chapter as you can imagine, a lot of emotions swirling around.  Tell Brian I'm glad he's looking forward to it.:)  I'll get it posted just as soon as I can, promise!:)

Something tells me it's going to take a lot of fast talking to get Brian to agree to this.  However, after that horrible run-in with Claire (the bitch!), he may just agree to do it out of spite. We all know Brian would be a perfect campaign manager for Fin.

Can't wait to see what he says!



Author's Response:

Thanks for reading and for the comments, Megan Rose!  (Love that name, BTW - very lyrical.:))  I think you're correct - Brian's not just going to jump up and down in excitement over taking on Fin's campaign, but I think his interest will certainly be piqued.  Stay tuned for how to see how it turns out....I think in the long run he's going to have a hard time turning both his father (and Justin) down.  Thanks again for the feedback - it is greatly appreciated.:)

I think I already told you, but you're an amazing writer. thanks.

Author's Response:

Aw....thanks, Marny, you're very kind.  And thanks for all the support since I joined the site - that means more to me than you know.  *Hugs* back to you, too, my friend.:)

Hhmm not sure that Brian is going to be thrilled with all this behind the scenes discussion on him being a campaign manager. Brian always makes his own dicisions as Justin said and the more you push the harder he will dig his  heels in. Jim Stockwell that just might be the catalyst to Brian and Fin joining forces. I hope that was not a forwarning of danger with brian wanting the house security upgraded.

 

Ooooooooooooohhhhhh deliscious chapter cannot wait for more :)



Author's Response:

Hi, Chris!  Thanks so much for your comments!  I'm thrilled you enjoyed the chapter.:)  Very insightful comment about Brian.  I agree - I don't think he's going to rush into this decision, especially after the sour taste he was left with after his first (and only) attempt to help with a political campaign.  I don't think he (or Fin) is going to be aware of Stockwell's involvement for a while - I see Stockwell as working more behind the scenes.  If it were to get out that a corrupt cop was helping I think that would hurt Turner more than help....:)  I'm actually excited to get more into the meat of the story finally - stay tuned; there's going to be all SORTS of things going on in this one!:)  Thanks again for reading and reviewing, my friend.:)

thought it was time to see who was running against fin--and lo and behold who turner's campaign manager is going to be.  this makes the cheese more binding.  what a ride we are in for--you sneaky girl.  you go justin!!  nice to see him get his dander up.  this was a wonderful chapter.  i guess dean will be interested in our little group as he has two gay friends-so he's not homophobic.  thank god i can still read.  i guess, by my calculations paper hearts is next. n'est pas?  lol



Author's Response:

Hi, lindc! Hi, Peeps!:)  You are correct - time to get back to "Paper Hearts."  Obviously the next chapter is going to be a very pivotal one in a lot of ways.....As for this story, Stockwell will have his nasty touch in the campaign for sure, but I don't think he'll actually become his campaign manager  I see him doing a lot behind the scenes but I think his notoriety would be a major blow to Turner's run for Governor.  He will be more of a silent instigator.  Whether that will backfire or not remains to be seen....Tell Dean welcome!  Hope you can 'recruit' him to read along - ha!  Something tells me if anyone can do it, you can.:)  Thanks as always for the comments - and now back to that creepy child killer.....
