Great story. You are a fantastic writer. Held my attention and I shed a few tears. Always a good sign that I am into the story. Off to the last two stories which I saw are short.

Too bad it ends; it was fun to go through their familly lives.

Interesting chapter; Justin starts to get Brian to face his main problem without him shutting down.
I was afraid they would be too loud and Gus would hear them fighting.
Author's Response: Justin know Brian really well and at this time Brian is allowing Justin to push his buttons.
Reviewer: The SNO (Signed) · Date: June 17, 2016 08:36 PM · On: Chapter 22
You have a way of telling a story! I loved Gus, Brian and Justin interactions. So many little and important things were told. It seemed like real life with actual problems.
Well done!
Author's Response: Thank you. When I write a story, I try to make the participants as real as possible. I'm glad that you feel I succeeded.
Reviewer: The SNO (Signed) · Date: June 17, 2016 08:01 PM · On: Chapter 21
I liked how you had Justin talk about their fights to Gus: "I learned to just walk away from an argument because it’s not polite or good social graces to argue. Your Dad learned to dull the pain."
That would explain many of their break-ups.
Author's Response: It just made sense that Justin would feel that way.

"Ferdinand the Bull" is very sweeet ! I'm French and my mother read me this book when I was younger, but it was a German version. Lol to see this book in an English story !
(By the way, I'm reading your story "pain management" and others, and I like it, even if this is only my first review !)
Reviewer: Tagsit (Anonymous) · Date: August 01, 2012 12:39 PM · On: Chapter 28
Just as good as the prequel. I love your characterizations - spot on for both Justin and Brian. This is exactly how I would picture them after 17 years. Great job! TAG

great ending. they handled gus great. even though the comparison to brian and justin and gus and sam is similar the one main difference is that brian and justin have been through it before. gus has the two of them at his back. i think they handle the comic con just the right way too. can't hide in fear forever. smart of them not to put the accident in the comic. take your well deserved break and enjoy. come back to us with another really good story.
Author's Response: thank you. this means a lot since in the beginning, you were having a difficult time reading the story. I'm glad you returned and finished the story. No worries, I will return.

Brian needs to get help of some kind. He believes that he is the problem for all the wrong doings that happen to the people he loves. Hopefully Justin can help him and at least he see's the drinking problem. Great chapter.

never in a million years will brian want to go anywhere again. things were fine, they were on vacation and boom the phone rings. this guilt is going to eat him alive. on the bright side, he did realize what he was doing with the drinking and let justin get him to eat. “We'll be home soon. Gus is in good hands. Just try to relax.” does justin really believe brian is going to relax. ha!

Beam is like soda, I can see Daph and Justin seperately still thinking about the situation. Perhaps Gus being 17 will have some words of wisdom for his father on the subject. Great chapter.
Author's Response: don't know if Brian wants Gus to know how much he drinks- He's never been shy about drinking in front of Gus, but few parents want to admit that they have a problem.
Reviewer: Sara (Anonymous) · Date: August 17, 2008 09:15 PM · On: Chapter 24
I wonder what going on with Mel and Linds, it sounds really bad at their place. Im glad things with Brian and Justin are getting better and they are moving forward. Hopefully Brian will not drink anymore to hide and if he feels like hes going to hopefully he will talk to Justin or a therapist
Author's Response: Mel and Linds have many secrets- we shall have to determine if my muses will tell me what they are.
Reviewer: dphysh (Signed) · Date: August 10, 2008 09:54 AM · On: Chapter 1
So glad I finally caught up with this fic! A perfect place to catch up too or I would have been very upset and frustrated. nearly cheered when Daph spoke her words of wisdom to Justin! Of course it won't be easy. What is happening with Linds and Mel? Surely money can't be that tight if Mel is a partner now? Are they just using money as an excuse like Brian is using alcohol, to hide the real problem? Still loving you writing! More please soon! :)
Author's Response: thank you for your continued reading and words of encouragement. It means a lot when long time readers provide feedback- just tells me it was not a fluke that I had one good story - never to repeat it again. Lots more to unveil in the story- What is going on with Mel and Linds- Are Brian and Justin truly okay?

I wonder whats up with Mel and Lindsay she gave up really easy. It's great that Brian and Justin talked and are finally back in the same room. Great chapter. I can't wait to see what happens next.

what exactly are mel and lindsay hiding that they would ignore a cry of help form their son? and more so why did both jusitn and brian feel like they were under survallence? now that justin said his peace and brian just gave in like it was no big deal. i'm not falling for it.
Author's Response: There is always more than meets the eye- with the "girls" and with J/B. Brian has to match actions to words and we shall see if this happens.

i get the sense of false serenity hanging over britin. something has to give. will it be good for gus to move in now? maybe, maybe not. more like his moving in will be like a small bandage placed over a large gaping wound. not enough to help it heal properly. too complacent.
Author's Response: nothing is ever easy for these guys and while Gus' moving in may not be an ideal time, it may spurn some mcuh needed dialogue.

i don't think justin will agree to gus moving in unless he speaks to brian about his drinking. although brian would never jeapordize gus' well being the are always first times. if justin isn't happy then he better talk to brian soon. as for brian talking to the girls, i do hope they would agree. why did justin just up and leave when brian came into the room. avoidance of the problems?
Author's Response: they have a lot ot work out- Justin will confront Brian when he feels it is time- Justin was not exactly avoiding Brian, but he wasn't ready to share his thoughts with him at that moment. Gus was a good distraction.

Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: June 29, 2008 05:15 AM · On: Chapter 19
this is getting out of hand. if something isn't done soon it's going to be broken for good. then what? maybe gus can put a new perspective on the situation. you did bring tears to my eyes. "He crept into the room like some lovesick teenager sneaking into his boyfriend's bed, trying not to wake anyone up. He sat down on the floor, putting his hand up towards the bed, reaching for Justin's hand. Finding his hand, he grasped it, feeling the warmth and vitality of his partner. Justin didn't wake up, but shifted toward him. He lay his head on the bed and fell asleep. " even id his sleep justin knows when he's close. this whole sequel hurts my heart for them. i don't know how brian will react to justin when they talk about his drinking. it won't be pretty.
Author's Response: They both love Gus and they love each other. the fact that Brian went into Justin's room and Justin was very pleased in the morning shows me that Justin is working towards returning to Brian. The Blow Job in Brian's office gives me hope that they will repair their relationship, it will just take time. As far as the drinking goes, that will be hard to deal with, but they both need to talk about it. Thanks for your comments. I appreciate that you have returned to reading the story, even though it may be hard at times. It is a much harder story to write than the original- there is more on the line in a long term relationship and they have more to deal with.

I really hate seeing the distance between Brian and Justin. I know Brian confessed to Justin because he felt guilty, but it was an accident. Yes he went into the lounge, and he should have known something might happen, but he didn't purposefully pick up a trick and have him suck him. He was depressed and thinking about Justin.. Maybe if he just told Justin that Justin might be a bit more understanding. I can't stand to see them unhappy.

ok i'm going to be honest, i hated this chapter, till the end with drew's and emmett's thoughts of phone sex. i am so sick and tired of everyone trying to involve themselves into brian's and justin's lives. “Mom, don't. If there's something wrong, he'll tell us in his own good time. Dad never does well when confronted. You know that. He'll just deny everything,” Gus reminded her. what a smart boy brian has. gus, mel, ben, and ted were the only ones to make any sense. oh yeah carl too. that little shit michael and his mother just gets on my nerves. “Maybe I should go over there,” “Brian better not be having Sunshine do too much or he'll never heal. Maybe I should drive over there and bring them some Mustcaccoli. I know Rosa cooks for them, but she doesn't make pasta like me.”
agh! just makes me want to pull my hair out,
Author's Response: It always bothered me that Deb was the first to blame Brian- especially since she also recognized how dependent Michael was on him. While you didn't like the chapter, I guess it means I still stuck to cannon as the characters were like that to me in canon. Glad you found at least one scene good. I do love Emmett. Thanks for commenting even if you didn't like the chapter.

Great chapter. Can't wait to see what happens between Brian and Justin:)
Author's Response: thanks- the story will unfold

Well it's great that everyone's worried about them...hopefully they don't make it worse though. Great chapter. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Glad you liked the chapter. While everyone may be worried, it is not their lives and the sooner they realize that, the better.

again... great chapter... where is micheal when you need him. I wish someone (micheal) would talk some sense in thouse two... please update soon. :-))
Author's Response: Thanks- glad you liked it, but I doubt Michael would talk sense into Brian and Justin. I think they need to figure this out themselves.
Reviewer: Sara (Anonymous) · Date: April 19, 2008 01:31 PM · On: Chapter 12
poor justin and brian, they cant even have a fight wihout everyone gossiping about them, hopefully they will keep away and let them sort it out privately
Author's Response: thanks for the comments- I never understood how everyone always thought they needed to have an opinion about their relationship.

at first I wanted to wait till this story is completed, but I was so curious.... :-)) what are they doing?? why is brian so insecure and why is justin moving in the studio? I thought they learnt to talk to each other... please update soon....:-))
Author's Response: Thanks for your comments. If you haven't read Pain Management, it might help give you some background information about my universe. They did learn to talk, but sometimes people back slide.
Reviewer: alys (Anonymous) · Date: April 14, 2008 04:31 AM · On: Chapter 11
Definately the old Brian, but Justin was kinda brusque there.....? Vic needs to have an Ebeneezer moment w/ Brian....
Author's Response: Maybe Vic should come back- He always seemed to help Brian in the past. thanks for your continued support in reading the story.

after i posted my review i'm like what the f**k. whether he picked up the trick or the trick came on to him it doesn't matter. yes he had his mind on justin the accident and justin and michael being in the accident, but that is still no excuse for not stopping the guy. after so many years. i don't blame justin one bit. not one.
Author's Response: see my comments on your first post- I agree with your statements. Justin is hurting, angry and so many other emotions are flowing through his head, he just can't deal.
Reviewer: Jackie (Anonymous) · Date: April 13, 2008 06:46 PM · On: Chapter 11
Oh snap. Well as much as it sucks at least Justin knows now. Those poor boys nothing goes right for them. Hopefully they can talk and get back together soon. Great chapter. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: thank you for your continued support and comments. glad to know I have some loyal readers. Brian has told Justin, but that is only one hurdle.
Reviewer: Anna (Anonymous) · Date: April 13, 2008 06:33 PM · On: Chapter 11
Brian told Justin... I can't wait for the next chapter. Thank you for writing
Author's Response: Glad you enjoyed the chapter. Much more to tell in the story.
Reviewer: Sara (Anonymous) · Date: April 13, 2008 05:42 PM · On: Chapter 11
I am relieved that brian has told Justin the truth, and that he didnt drink the jb, he needs to pull himself together and be there for Justin and get his husband moved back into their room and drinking and going out isnt going to achieve that, I think he knows that especially after seeing Justin moving his things to the studio and how big and cold his bed will be at night now
Author's Response: Brian has told Justin, but that only solves one issue. they have a lot of work to do. thanks for your comments and I appreciate you reading the story.
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: April 13, 2008 05:22 PM · On: Chapter 11
OMG! the drama! he didn't go after the trick, the trick came to him. why didn't he clearify? what does this all this mean now? justin's moving into the studio.
Author's Response: \the story is categorized as Angst and I guess it lives up to its name. While he didn't go after the trick, it still happened. Just like his guilt over the accident- he didn't cause it, but he still feels guilty. thanks for your continued comments and support. I always look forward to your comments as they help me read my readers.
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: April 05, 2008 10:44 AM · On: Chapter 10
brian has to tell him before they run into the trick himself. the sooner the better.
Author's Response: That's what he should do, but will he?
Reviewer: Jackie (Anonymous) · Date: April 05, 2008 07:05 AM · On: Chapter 10
Well it's good that Justin wants to get out more. I thought the trick was going to go up to their table...I'm glad he didn't. Brian needs to say something before someone else does. Great chapter. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Justin is ready to resume his life, but Brian is still fighting all the guilt that he has for hte accident and the trick. they may be in for some difficulties.
Reviewer: sammi (Anonymous) · Date: April 05, 2008 02:09 AM · On: Chapter 10
when they decided to go to the diner I was freaking thinking the guy brian tricked with or someone was going to tell justin, I really hope brian tells justin before someone else does as it will hurt alot more that brian kept it from him and being humiliated infront of others if he finds out in public
Author's Response: thanks for your comments- Brian has some decisions to make- lets hope he makes the right ones.
Reviewer: Anna (Anonymous) · Date: April 04, 2008 10:18 PM · On: Chapter 10
Thank you for writing:) A great chapter. Still waiting for Justin to find out about Brian's doings. Looking forward to more
Author's Response: thanks- I appreciate your continued interest in the story.

Ohhh, me likes this; me likes a lot!!!! I love the way you keep bringing Vic into the story. He was one of my favorite characters in the show. And Ted? I always knew that he and Brian could be good friends!
Thanks for writing this honey. Can I hope to a quick update??? Helen xxx
Author's Response: thanks- glad you found the story- Vic is an integral part of my universe and I think Brian relies on him to think through his problems.
Reviewer: Anna (Anonymous) · Date: March 31, 2008 05:39 PM · On: Chapter 9
Thank you for writing! I hope Brian comes clean with Justin before Justin hears it from someone else. Can't wait for more
Author's Response: Thank you for writing. Brian does need to tell Justin, we just don't know if that will happen.
Reviewer: Jackie (Anonymous) · Date: March 31, 2008 07:06 AM · On: Chapter 9
Well Ted is all sorts of awesomeness. At least Brian is trying...even if it may seem to be a little too much. Hopefully he tells Justin about the trick before someone else does. Great chapter and I cannot wait to see what happes next.
Author's Response: Thank you for your comments and continued support. Brian is trying, but he does need to talk to Justin. Hopefully it will all turn out all right.
Reviewer: nazdre (Signed) · Date: March 31, 2008 05:15 AM · On: Chapter 9
Have I ever mentioned how much I love post 5 Ted? Because I really do. I love him, love him, love him. I feel bad for Brian, but I'm also glad that he understads that he was wrong to be with the trick and that he regrets doing something else to cause Justin pain. I know he blames himself for hurting Justin and that he is trying to deal with that, but he nees to do that with Justin, not through his old pain management techniques.
Author's Response: so true- Brian needs to wake up and realize that Justin doesn't blame him- Of course, the key is whether it will happen. Thanks for the comments
Reviewer: Jess (Anonymous) · Date: March 31, 2008 04:02 AM · On: Chapter 9
ted is a good friend, I still think brian should tell justin so he doesnt hear it from someone else
Author's Response: Ted has become a really good friend, more so than Michael as he doesn't have that unrequited history. He accepts Brian. Brian should tell Justin, but the question is, will he? Thanks for the comments
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: March 31, 2008 03:32 AM · On: Chapter 9
what a good man ted is. now not only guilt over the accident which caused justin to be hurt, but living with the guilt of what happened with the trick which now must of his friends know about. i think justin knows something. "You seem different tonight. Everything okay?” Justin questioned. “What do you mean?” Brian answered innocently, hoping to negate Justin's observations. “I don't know. Solicitous. I usually have to beg for you to watch TV with me and you even made me popcorn,” Justin explained. “You're just imagining things, Justin. I guess being cooped up in the house for almost two weeks is giving you hallucinations,” Brian joked. Maybe I am being extra attentive, but he deserves the best, not some cheating partner." he has to tell justin before someone lrts it slip out by accident. since when has he been such a coward?
Author's Response: Brian is racked by guilt. Drinking, Tricking, the accident, having his friends know he broke his vows- yikes- I think Justin knows something is up, but he is afraid to confront Brian- I think he knows Brian feels guilt (drinking and the accident), but wants Brian to try and work through it. He knows that Brian is not one to talk and that when pushed he may be afraid Brian will revert back to old habits. Thanks for your comments as always and am glad you are still reading even after the long absence.

i don't think brian's dreams of vic are going to be helpful to him right now. he's feeling the guilt of something he had no control over. maybe that's his problem now, he lost his control to keep those he loves safe' if ted hadn't shown up, would he have gone home with the guy he played pool with? we'll never know. i am surprised that he choose to go back to britin instead of the loft. insightful chapter.
Author's Response: Thanks for the comments and being patient with the updates. He is feeling guilty, but he needs to figure out what to do with that guilt. I think he loves Justin and while he is struggling, he will go home to him.
Reviewer: tessa (Anonymous) · Date: March 23, 2008 04:28 AM · On: Chapter 1
its awful they are both hurting so much, brian is in so much guilt and pain and he doesnt know how to handle it so he trys to block it out by getting drunk so hes numb but hes not dealing with it and it hurts justin to be pushed away, if anyone can get through to him though it will be vic or justin, I liked vic making comments about it being an accident because brian didnt do anything wrong
Author's Response: Brian is in pain, but he manages hispain in an unhealthy way. He will need to figure this out, soon. thanks for the comments.
Reviewer: Jackie (Anonymous) · Date: March 23, 2008 03:37 AM · On: Chapter 8
Brian really needs to get some kind of help. It doesn't realize that he's hurting Justin. Great chapter.
Author's Response: Thanks for the comment. I think he realizes he's hurting Justin. He just doesn't know what to do.
Reviewer: Ally (Anonymous) · Date: March 23, 2008 01:30 AM · On: Chapter 8
vic needs to kick brians ass some more hes not getting the message and hes not even just hurting himself hes destroying justin by not even kissing and touching him
Author's Response: Vic is a great conscience for Brian. He helps Brian see his problems. Hopefully, Brian will listen.
