I found the idea Brian had of putting Mel in a room with Justin just so he could see that he didn't want to actually make a baby 'naturally' brilliant. The granny panties made me laugh.

I do hope Justin really becomes a father. He would be a great one.

Thank you so much for the 'brilliant' comment.  I really appreciated reading that you enjoyed the granny panties.:)))  I had to hold back with so much on this fic as I was fearful humour would take over since that is my default setting, nevertheless, one or two bits of silliness did manage to stay on the page.

I agree; I think Justin would be a great father.    

Cheers :))))

I thought it only fitting that since I had finally escaped my near Amish like living situation I return to your Amish series and finish reading them. After living in a world without zippy fast internet and color TV I am at a loss to understand why Justin wasn't thrilled to enter joyfully into the wonderful world of Brian. Amazing technology at your fingertips, comforts to soothe your body and soul, and lets not forget the toe tingling sex. Cows and buttons and apple pie just can't come close to the thrill you get when you hear that special ring tone, surf thru 500 channel and don't find a thing worth watching , waste hours watching cats slip on the floor and smash into patio doors on youtube. Ok, back to the story, I still think Justin need therapy. He is not ready to be responsible for bringing up a child. What sort of things is he going to teach a child. The kid is going to be so messed up. I think Brian is going to snap one day and probably become a danger to society from all the pent up sexual energy. He was used to getting the all you can eat mega buffet at every meal and now he's getting peanut butter and jelly for every meal, and it's the same peanut butter and jelly not even a chance of a different flavor, dull boring grape jelly every freaking day. No chance of black raspberry and crunchy peanut butter. Poor Brian. So now Jelly deprived Brian has tricked Justin into giving up a jar and baby juice and he's going to baste Mel into having a kid. Will he try and keep it for himself to get Justin's mind off his Amish ways and focus on something else? But I'm afraid now Justin will be too busy trying to milk cows to supply the infant with unpasteurized milk sure to infect the child with mad cow disease to find time to tend to Brian's needs. Brian will need to spend more time at Babylon and before you know it he'll be finding excuses to visit the backroom. It will start out innocent at first, check the lube supply, scrape the walls. Then he'll start chatting with the boys and before you know it his pants will be down around his knees and someone will be checking his stiffy for wood ticks or at least that's the story he'll be telling Justin. So, that's my review for this chapter. I can't wait to hear more about Joan and how she dies. She was always such a wonderful woman to hate. I have one more question, where did Mel get the big granny panties, they couldn't possibly be her's as she is always so mean and nasty. She has to get some of that from wearing way to small undies...wait, did she borrow Deb's undies?? You really are a talented author, there is nothing you won't do to make a story come to life.

Hey, Brian had sex twice in this chapter and it was approximately only 2300 words in length (yes, size matters, especially length).  LOL 

WT?  PB is never boring, and very tasty.  Oh wait, we are talking about peanut butter the spread, and since I don't eat it I wouldn't know.  I'm a vegemite girl.  I'm a happy little Vegemite, I enjoy Vegemite of breakfast, lunch, and tea (dinner) and have rosy cheeks.   Okay, you aren't going to understand that as it is an Australian jingle.  Useless fact; vegemite is another Australian iconic brand that we no longer own.   Stop purchasing our iconic companies/products NZ.  LOL 

To answer your insightful question (as all your questions are insightful), they are Mel's monthly undies.  If you like she can use them alternately with Debbie, but somehow I think the size would be a problem especially if Mel is to stay in a grumpy state of mind.  LOL 

I need to go and eat something as I think my sugar levels are dropping, or it could be my silliness levels are increasing.  Vegemite will fix it. LOL 

Cheers :))))

         First let me wish you a speedy recovery.  Let us hope all

goes well.  Let us know, ok?

     

  This was a very complicated chapter.  If Justin is happy with

what Brian did, then ok with me.  As I said it is complicated.  One

person may decide that the child (assume everything goes as

planned), was born out of love.  Another person may decide that

the child was born out of trickery.  What is important here, is that

Justin is satisfied, though it sure it complicated. 

 

       Me? Coming  from a totally different background thinks only

about the goal and the reason for that goal.  I don’t see how the

sperm was gathered makes much difference, though surely Justin

would argue with me. 

       Thanks for the chapter.

Thanks David for the well wishes on a speedy recovery.  It will take me a little while to recover, still all seems to be going well.  I really do appreciate you asking.

I understand and agree with what you are saying; the way the sperm is collected is inconsequential to most people as the end result is the only goal.  Justin's circumstance however is a little different and I'm sure after Brian's talk with Justin (about Gus) the words "God's will" is just as much an incentive as to the way Brian collected the sperm while Justin declared his love.  I'm glad you say what you think as it allows me to know how I'm going and maybe I get it wrong occasionally.  Thank you so much for the honest review.

Cheers :)    

First, good luck with your surgery.

This chapter was one of my favorites; Justin realizing that he could not have sex with Mel, Brian explaining about
God's will and his love for Gus, and finally, making love with Justin and talking about their love for each other and why he collected Justin's sperm to see if it is God's will that Justin becomes a father.

Author's Response:

Hey Lorie.

Thank you for the well wishes with the surgery.  All seems to have gone well and I am just a little sore (oh, I hope that's not TMI, lol). 

Thank you so much for saying this is one of your favourite chapters and why; that really helps me and your kind words are very encouraging and appreciated.  I think Brian using those words, God's will, was very reassuring to Justin.

It's an absolute delight receiving your always positive reviews, thanks Lorie.

Cheers :)

Wow what a sneaky thing for Brian to do, but oddly I understand the motive behind it. So Mel is going to be the birth mother huh...I figured as much ;)

Good luck with your surgery my friend...just think this is the finish line!

Author's Response:

Sneaky Brian is right, I think choosing the words "God's will" was also a sneaky thing for him to do. Haha  Poor Mel, whenever I put her in a fic her underwear seems to get mentioned. LOL 

Thank you so much for the good luck as I really believe I need it with this anaesthetist.  I'm happy to see it all conclude, then I only have to take drugs (no prescription ones, lol) and cross my fingers for the next ten years.  Thanks Tamara for reviewing and good wishes.

Cheers :)
