I'm a sucker for Teacher /pupil stories .. I think actually this became secondary to your purpose in the end but the story of Brian letting his guard down was sweet and touching and the erotic scenes were fabulous! More please!

This is the second time I've read this sequel to the Simon AU and I enjoyed it even more the second time around. I love the dimensionality of the two lead characters, and Justin's journey in particular is very convincing. The ending was realistic but possibly a little anticlimactic for me ... Suggesting that these 2 may never find their happy ending?

So it's 2019 now but I came to QaF and related fanfiction very late, only a couple of years ago. I've read a tonne of fiction since but I'm pretty picky about the quality of stuff I read and this is up there with the best. Everything about it felt authentic and you captured their characters so well. Hats off to your excellent skill... It even made me cry, and I'm sure it will remain with me for a long time to come. Thank you. Going to go on to discover more of your fiction now...

Mmm a very intriguing set - up. I'm enjoying your writing immensely, Kim... The country scenery is described so vividly and the characters are already imbued with their own life and story rather than just being vehicles for the main action. Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

You must have done a tonne of research into running a farm... Either that or maybe you're speaking from firsthand experience? It's wonderfully alive in the writing and the way you describe Brian's reaction to the richness and diversity of farm life is very funny... I can just imagine how visceral it feels for him to be enveloped by all those farm sights and smells, lol

It's a super story... so glad you didn't let your doubting Thomas voice win!

The only anomaly though is why Brian would be kept in the dark about Dale's death... Surely Sarah would've told her sister what had happened to him? 



Author's Response:

Hello, Elizabeth! Just wanted to pop in to say I appreciate all your comments on this story. I had a lot of fun writing it; especially the parts that made Brian feel like an alien in another world - ha!  As for experience, I have visited relatives in Kentucky (was born there, too), but have never really lived on a farm.  Would have liked to, though. I hope you enjoy the rest of the story. Thank you again for all the feedback. I really appreciate that. :)  ~Kim

Summary:

I know I have other stories to finish, but this came to mind and I had to write it and share. 

The title of this story can be misleading, for it's not what you think it is. This is not a crossover.

There will be smut and lemons. Some mild B & D.  

I don't want to say anything else as I don't want to give anything away. R & R and Enjoy!

Seven Minutes by Teinisydan Rated: NC-18 [Reviews - 137]
Summary: Feature

This story includes somewhat shy teenage Justin who is definitely not experienced and teenage Brian who just likes Justin way too much and enjoys being all fluffy with him. I don’t think this story has an actual plot other than the boys are not together in the beginning and things process from there in an interesting, not really cliché way. This story is full of more or less fluffy scenes after fluffy scenes. Plus this story has loads of cuddling mostly initiated by Brian. If that is not your thing, do not go further. And keep in mind that because this story basically has no plot do not expect any huge dramatic events or plot twists.

 

THIS STORY IS NOW COMPLETE

I loved this story so much. Came across it after a recommendation on the MW Facebook group. I love how you capture Brian's unique blend of vulnerability, goofiness and sensuality... You can clearly see how he could develop into the adult Brian, albeit this one is more in touch with his feelings. The other thing I loved about it was how unquestioningly their friends and family (apart from Dean) accepted their burgeoning love... It's not even an issue that they're gay. I found that so refreshing. I can see myself coming back to this one again. In the meantime I'm going straight on to the sequels now :) 



Author's Response:

Aww, such kind words. I'm pudding here! My goal with this story was to come up with something nice and feelgood stuff. No hate, not a lot of angst, no real life issues such as gay hate because real people in this world spread it around way too much and I have no idea why. I'm glad you enjoyed reading this story and I hope you will like the sequels too :). Thank you for the comment.

Seven Moments by Teinisydan Rated: NC-18 [Reviews - 124]
Summary:

This is a sequel for Seven Minutes. You might want to read that first if you haven’t already. This story continues three months after Seven Minutes’ epilogue ended. This story has the same rules as Seven Minutes: fluff, cuddling and a guaranteed happy ending. For the plot, there will be seven more or less life changing moments in Brian and Justin’s life so look forward for those. Happy reading.

Did you write this before or after the episode in which Brian hires a hustler for Justin? Is this supposed to be the gap filler or Canon revision? I wish your take on it had been the reality. I always thought the hustler (who was deeply unattractive in my view anyway!) was such a cheap move by Brian.

Reviewer: Leather Cuff Signed
Date: March 14, 2019 Title: Chapter 1: An Unexpected Bump in the Night

This looks very promising, I love historical fiction. A couple of anomalies in dialect/speech though, which might be worth thinking about.... Brian is obviously a man of class and distinction... Would he have such a modern affectation for swearing like a common barrow boy? And no one said 'okay' in the 1800s... 'Very well' is probably more appropriate.

Looking forward to reading more! 



Author's Response:

Hi, Elizabeth! Thank you for reading this part, and for your comments. This is my first foray into historical drama, so I appreciate your feedback.  You may be correct about Brian's use of language; I think in the presence of his peers (social events, etc.), he might have been one to adhere to more common standards befitting his station in life at that time, but in private I feel he would have perhaps used more 'colorful' language.  As for 'okay,' according to what I read online, the word 'okay' was commonly used as far back as the 1830's in the US, but 'very well' would have been a good substitute, so I will keep that in mind. I like that better.  Sounds more formal.

Thanks again for reading. I hope you enjoy the rest. I probably have one or two more chapters to go before it's put to bed. :)  ~Kim
