Hi there!
I left you a message few days ago but it seemed you didn't get it.
I have been working on translating this story now and would like to ask you some questions, because there are some parts I'm not able to catch their meanings. Would you mind to give me your email address so that I'm capable of contacting with you. I really want to finish the translating work as good as possible. Hope you can see this review~~~~~

Sorry me again ~I just found that I read your story' Chocolate kisses' before and I really loved it! So surprised LOL!
Author's Response: I am happy you enjoyed Chocolate kisses, thanks for reading. I hope to revisit that universe in the coming year. Happy New Year! :)

I'm glad that this story is finished when I find it. I'm sure I'll love it. I haven't been a QAF a fan for a long time and just started on August. So I have quite missed a lot of things about the two guys, it makes me feel a little bit sad.
I love to read AU fictions and I hope I can have your permission to translate this story into Chinese and share with Chinese fans(we also have our own websites like this)
Thanks anyway!
And the new year is coming soon, have a wonderful time!!
April
Author's Response: Hello April, I'm always happy to see new readers, I hope you are able to read lots of wonderful Brian and Justin stories to fill the void. :) I love writing Alternate Universe stories for these boys and hope to do so for a while to come. Yes, absolutely you are free to translate this. Brian and Justin are a couple that should be shared with everyone. *Hugs to you* Mandi

Wow -- what a nice Halloween surprise to log on and find this story finished! I only read completed stories, so have waited a while for this one. Hopefully, I'll get to read it in the next week or so. :-)
'Noir' is a fave of mine, so I fully expect to enjoy this; but, whether or not that's the case, I just wanted to thank you for following through and actually completing this for all of us who were waiting. Just in case you were wondering, your efforts to get this done are definitely appreciated!
Thanks, again, and all the best to you! :-)
Author's Response: I do apologize for the long wait. I cannot thank you enough for your appreciation; I was worried readers had lost faith in me. I hope you get a chance to read this one and that you enjoy it. Noir was a very fun genre to explore. -Smiles & Hugs- Mandi :)

Thank you for the ride.

It may have taken a while, but the story is finished and in fine fashion. The bad guy got caught. Justin hired his detective for full time employment, deep into the night. And Kinney is as happy as a clam. Well Done!

OMG, HOORAY, I have been waiting for someone to write a sex scene that is different from the same old, same old, "Brian, please, now, beg" that we seem to be stuck in at the moment, and not only have you achieved it "Grunt...Gasp...Groan...God...My name, over and over" you have done it with hilarious brilliance. Thank you so much Mandi. :)))
I haven't read anything like this before. This genius prose is blue ribbon material.
BTW, thank you also for the ~hugs-n-such~. Did you know hugs are the perfect gift? One size fits all and nobody minds if you return them. LOL
Cheers :)
Author's Response: Gosh, Whew! I have dreaded this POV sex scene since before I started the fic. I was very pleased with the outcome and I'm soo happy you were too.

Hey Mandi :)
"I could've benefited from Melanie's presence right then... She can really brighten up a room when she leaves it" & "He was talking in complete sentences and capital letters" these are two of the funniest lines that I think will stay with me even after this fic concludes.
"Now, we're cookin' with gas"& "train of thought" I use this type of speech regularly so now I'm wondering if I am starting to sound like a very old detective. LOL
I love the wimpy Brian as you just want to kiss it better for him, don't you. Oh, may be that is just me. LOL
Cheers :)
Author's Response: It's pretty neat to know that something born from my little mind may stick with you after reading,I'm honored. Maybe you do speak like brian or maybe he speaks like you. You could be a trendsetter of awesome things. lol Also, it's not just you friend, where do I get in on that better kissin'? :) ~mandi

I didn't know what the broderick or chin music was, thanks for clearing that up. Blake and Ted how perfect are their characters! Shandaleer might have a beef, but was it with Ian? Could the bookie be behind it all, after all 2 million is a lot of money. Could it be the mob didn't want to pay out?

Thank you for the end notes. Looks like Justin might get a bum wrap, if the coppers find out about the will. Who would have thought that the chin rat had that much money. Love the way you introduced Gus, he's one smart cookie. Mikey can't be to far behind if Gus is into comics.
Author's Response: You are very welcome, I know this needs the lingo glossary. I'm just hopeful the word context is enough to help out a little on the words. Some I've never heard myself, just really wanted to set the mood. I hope I've done it ok. Thanks for the comment.

Is there any reason you drag this story 3.5 years. No thanks.
I'll wait until you finish (if you do).
Author's Response: Of course there is a reason. One I'd prefer not to share where all the world can read it. Real life issues are something entirely separate from plotlines in a fictitious world. I apologize to readers who are irritated with my gap in continuation,but I'm still writing for those I've kept waiting and for myself. It is a beautiful bonus to get to share with others who love this fandom as much. Though I appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment, I'd better appreciate you waiting to read the story; rather than just critique my time management. If you give it a shot, that's great. If you don't,that's fine. If you are too frustrated to read it, I understand. If something is not your cup of tea, please don't drink it just to tell me it tastes bitter. ~mandi~

Popperz and The Locker Room as club; priceless.
"He was so far in the closet he was finding Christmas presents" I like how you referenced that at the end. Unfortunately, the line still brings back a terrible memory for me of when I actually found my Christmas present. LOL

"Gus curved behind me and retrieved a hat" Whew, for a split second I thought we were going to have a cute Gus moment.
I'm so excited to have another chapter to read. Thank you for adding them so quickly.

Author's Response: Yes! I feel like Brian Kinney was born to be a Noir Detective in another life, another universe...this one even. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by a 'cute' Gus, like sappy or baby-fide? Lol I'm sitting here trying to imagine what's too cute and if I do it. I waste a lot of time wondering things that don't generally affect my daily life, I lose hours this way :) Thank you for reading and reviewing. ~hugs~

Why are you writing fiction here for us when you should be writing the next Dragnet movie?

Author's Response: It's always makes me smile, literally...(I'm doing it now, I promise) to hear that I have managed to bring one out in someone else through only words. Thank you for both the read and the review. Its truly appreciated. I hope to have the next chapter finished by early next week. It's a little crazy maybe but this story has the shortest chapters, yet they always take the longest to get out. I have it completely mapped out to the very end, and I assure you there is finally an end in sight. I only pray I can continue to amuse. :P ~Mandi

My voice had wavered, like my confidence in Justin's innocence.

You are an amazing writer. To tackle Noir and hit it so spot on is so impressive. Nice job.
Author's Response: Thank you Ally for such a kind review. I'm incredibly relieved to hear you say this, considering going into this I knew very little about this genre. My sister actually put this story idea in my head and then it just never went away. So I decided to do a little research and give it a go. I'm more than happy to share it with my fellow B/J lovers.

The prospect of such an organization amused me. The queer mafia. Surely then it'd be dubbed really organized crime. Where you slept with the gourmet fishies lightly drizzled in bearnaise; and wore designer cement shoes.

Aw, Mandi - welcome back!! I have been waiting for more of your delicious sense of humor and you didn't disappoint - my favorite par of this was the 'fondled memories' line for the back room - LOL! So glad to see your update, my friend, and I hope things are back on track for you now. Will be looking forward to what else you come up with - I hope you'll consider writing another story while you've got this one up (what can I say? I'm greedy - ha!). BTW - I'd still love for you and the boys to go to the circus (hint, hint...). Take care, dear.:)
Author's Response: I have so many ideas but I sometimes have trouble getting them out. My swirling thoughts very seldom come out smoothly on paper. As I've told you before, I sooooo envy your ability to write many different stories at once. I'm borderline crazy OCD lol, it's difficult for my mind to start something new until I get the other one finished. :/ But I will try...for you. I have two summer stories I really want to do, hopefully before summer ends. :P Also, I have not forgotten....I very much plan on taking us all to the circus! Sure hope that will be worth the wait.

Hello, my friend - I have been remiss for a few chapters reviewing because of my own stories; I just want you to rest assured that your work is greatly appreciated by me.:) I certainly know how it is sometimes to get hundreds of readers and only a few reviews, and while I've been told it's the readership numbers that are the most important, I beg to differ. They certainly gauge interest, but they are not the balm to the soul like good, old-fashioned reviews full of accolades are. So I am making a point of telling you what a tremendously creative writer you are. You are so brilliant at coming up with poetic descriptions of events and circumstances. I am still so in awe of your writing skill. I hope you continue these for a LONG time to come, dear.:) Thank you for all your hard work in producing these - you are a author deserving of a different-colored ribbon all your own!:)
Author's Response: Goodness I can't believe all of the reviews I have missed. I have to say WOW to this. I am humbled and honored that you believe in my talent as a writer as much as you do. It amazes me to hear such strong praise from you, a beautifully skilled wordsmith. :)I do hope I can continue to produce stories for this fandom as I think Brian and Justin deserve a million tales. I too truly appreciate the care and time you put into writing them as incredibly as you do.Thank you from all the places in my heart. :) Mandi
