I thought I was going to have an asthma attack! That was totally awesome! Thanks so much! :+) Ro Author's Response: Thanks Ro :-) I'm really glad you enjoyed it and that it gave you a laugh! Thanks so much for reading and for your wonderful comment :-) I always check back on story reviews because it's wonderful to hear from people. Thanks again! Summary:

Date: September 27, 2010 Title: Chapter 18: Chapter 18 I waited until this story was finished before I read it. I'm glad I did. You are a wonderful writer. You have the boys voices down pat, even if Brian is a bit emotional. LOL Thank you for this story and I can't wait for the prequel that led to the marriage! Ro Author's Response: Thanks for that lovely compliment on the characters voices. It's an important part of fanfic and I'm always happy when I achieve the right voice even if, as you say, a bit emotional, but that was my intent. I've always wanted to see a romantic Brian Kinney so since the show wouldn't give it to me I created my own:) I'm glad you enjoyed my story. Mickie Summary:
NEWEST CHAPTER REVISED Season 4. Brian discovers he has cancer and decides to end his relationship with Justin before his partner finds out the truth. Angry and hurt, Justin is quickly distracted by the discovery of having a very young brother (Craig's other son) with autism. This is the story of Justin growing up, taking charge, taking legal guardianship of his brother, Kai... and what happens when he finds out the truth about Brian.
Thank you, Fran, for the beautiful banner!!

Date: September 18, 2010 Title: Chapter 63: Chapter 63; Wonderfall Thanks for letting Brian be the mature one for a change. LOL Brian and Justin are finally on the same relationship page but Justin is kinda in shock that it's real. Can't wait for B & J to set the family straight on staying out of their business and relationship. Everyone in the family has their own agenda when it comes to them. They've lost their scapegoat in Brian and may now have to take responsibility for their own actions and problems they have in their lives. Love that Justin wanted to draw Brian in the middle of the drama because he finds him beautiful in the simplest of poses. Hope the showdown comes soon. Ro

Date: October 10, 2010 Title: Chapter 65: Chapter 65: a little tenderness What a great domestic scene! How considerate of Brian to get Justin's fave sandwich. Except for the mayo it sounds awesome! LOL Brian really wants this to work and for all of them to be a family, including Gus. I love the picture idea. I think using sign is still a good idea as well. My godkids birthmom is a teacher and she taught them sign to use until they got more vocal. Great chapter! Looking forward to the confrontation with the "family". Ro Author's Response: Maybe it's a teacher thing, LOL, both my kids learned to sign before they spoke. LOL Thanks again for your comments!!!

He is secure about his place in their lives so adding Kai to the equation doesn't threaten him at all. I like that Gus understands that his dad gives him his undivided attention when he takes him out to eat, unlike his moms. Short and sweet! Thanks for the update! Ro Author's Response: Thank you! I am so glad I was able to express that in writing because that's exactly what I wanted to show. Thank you! Summary:

That is much more realistic considering Derek's past with Buford. He needs to know that he is truly attracted to men without any residual effects from that pervert. I love this story!

Date: July 21, 2010 Title: Chapter 14: In the Doorway Why can't he say he's sorry out loud? That would go a long way in taking the hurt away. If Justin knows he's trying it will help him to be more sensitive to his feelings of insecurity. It still amazes me that Brian forgets how bad off Justin was after the bashing. He had a scar and he was as skiddish as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs! Brian was patient, loving and supportive. why won't he let Justin reciprocate? Maybe Justin needs to come right out and tell Brian that he doesn't care about the fake ball. That he's not as shallow as the denizens of Babylon and Liberty about physical perfection. That he loves him because of what's in his heart, not what's in his pants. Great, if heartbreaking chapter. I was in tears. Keep it up. I agree that you are one of the best writers around and should have been a writer on the show. Ro Author's Response: *smiles8 I think you'll like the next chapter a lot! :) And it won't be too long before Justin gets to lecture him, too. :) I know I'm looking forward to it. :) This chapter had me tearing up a little, too....
I wish I could've been a writer for the show, too!!! If only!! *wink*

Date: May 08, 2010 Title: Chapter 9: Untouchable Hey! Sorry it took me so long to review. My old name is rowolfluv. Now that we have to register I changed my name here. How horrible that Brian feels destroyed by this surgery. He is almost delusional because his manhood has been challanged. The only real challange is his distorted macho identity view. Men are so threatened when their maleness is challanged. Some womyn are as well. One of the most inspiring things I have ever seen in regards to a womin adapting to being changed physically was at the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival a few years back. Womyn typically go topless(because it's in August and because they can)(there are NO men!). Anyway, I saw a beautiful womin with a double mastectomy, topless, with tatoos on her chest. She was made more beautiful because of her courage and boldness. She was no less a womin because she lost her breasts. I so wish Brian could understand that losing a ball doesn't make him any less a man. It's what's in your heart and soul that make you a man or womyn. Ro Author's Response: Wow, that's quite an inspirational story... I think you've hit at the core of one of Brian's issues and why this is such a struggle for him. We'll have to see how he can deal with it and how deep the layers go... Hint: It's going to be a *long* story! :) I hope you'll enjoy it!! I'm sorry the update took forever -- but I finally did post Ch. 10! )

Date: May 12, 2010 Title: Chapter 10: Never The Same Thank Godde Brian finally acknowledged that Justin was gonna stick like glue to him in this crisis! Even though he still judges everyone's possible responses to him based on his disgusting parents. Also very good that the Dr. was able to read his feelings about how his body looked. That will help for future dealings with Brian's queen outs which we all know are coming! LOL Justin must have a private conversation with the Doc. He needs to know what to expect from Brian's recovery so he isn't blindsided or swayed by Brian's misconceptions about said recovery. Brian is sure to distort everything that the Doc says to his own negative perceptions about how things are moving along. Sorry for rambling. Can't wait for more! Get some rest! Author's Response: You're right -- Dr. Lee is getting a little wiser about Brian and he'll definitely need that knowledge to keep up with Brian's issues in this story! I really like the idea of a Dr. Lee / Justin conversation; I think that'll take a little while but it will happen -- probably shortly after the chemo starts.
I'm so glad for your feedback on the story! I'm sorry I took so long to update; I hope you'll find the next chapter is worth the wait!

Date: July 17, 2010 Title: Chapter 13: Watching Great chapter! Justin must stay resolute in order to make Brian understand that he is exactly where he wants to be. I think this chapter is transitional because it establishes that fact. Justin is not going to let Brian push him away. It's so sad that he can't let himself be comforted by his lover because his parents made him feel so worthless that he feels he can't afford to need anyone without feeling weak. Justin needs to remind him that a man needs to know when to ask for help. Sorry for the computer problems. Maybe you need one of those coolers. More please! Ro Author's Response: I really like your characterization of this chapter as "transitional" -- I think that's quite how I see it. I think the issue of Brian accepting help will be "resolved" in some sense so they can battle his other issues together more effectively.
Thanks so much for the insight! And actually it's funny -- I had one of those laptop coolers, and now *it* broke! Guess I need to get another!

Date: July 24, 2010 Title: Chapter 15: Breaking Rules Thank you! Justin really needed to hear that. I'm also glad that Javier saw Brian's reactions to everything. Maybe the doc will suggest some counseling...LOL Justin would do anything for Brian short of letting him go through this alone. I think Brian is finally starting to get that. I think the first time Brian lets Justin hug him he will realize just how much he missed by keeping him at arms length. It will be a revelation. I can't wait! Author's Response: You're welcome!! :) I'm glad you mentioned that; there are several possibilities now that Javier has seen it. I agree that Brian is starting to understand more of Justin's commitment... Your thinking is quite like mine -- I have the sequence and degree of their physical interactions in his recovery very meticulously planned; they're an extremely important part of the story in my mind... and I love your term "revelation"; I hope it will live up to that. I don't want to be imsleading, though. That's quite a ways off yet. :)

Reviewer: vamplair Signed
Date: August 04, 2010 Title: Chapter 16: Not What I See I agree with others that review here that you write well enough, and have the true voices of both Brian and Justin down well enough that you could do original stories. The writers on Showtime and with Cowlip totally lost their edge after the first season. The wimped out and started spewing pure schlock. They should have addressed Justin's PTSD, instead they skipped right over it. No one can truly get over PTSD without some kind of therapy. Just having your sorta boyfriend talk to a shrink just is not going to cut it. Just like the issues that Brian is dealing with now are not going to be easy to correct. He needs some intense therapy that goes to the core of his psyche and exorcises his demons from his childhood. One of the writers in the fandom had Brian saying that his parents should not have been allowed to have goldfish, I totally agree! LOL You are doing a wonderful job of bringing Brian and Jusitn to a place where they can work together to help Brian heal inside and out. Keep up the great work! Ro Author's Response: Thanks so much! You're very much thinking how I am about the depth of Brian's problem. I'm probably going to post something on that later this week; not really a chapter but more an optional chapter on background for the story.
I'm so glad for your feedback; thanks so much for taking the time to write in!

Date: August 05, 2010 Title: Chapter 17: What He Knows Whew! His poor psyche is so damaged. His self image so twisted that his now lack of perfection-in his eyes-keeps him from being able to touch the one person that can give him the most comfort. The irony of it all is that their communication in this crisis is deeper that usual. They are really letting each other know how they feel, which for Brian is OOC for sure. But, if not now, when? So later when this is all over and the chemo is done, they should be even closer, more connected. Of course Cowlip couldn't let that happen on the show. They had to make Brian go back to being the club king again and forget the lessons he'd learned while Justin nursed him back to health. Anyway, I won't rant too much today. Great chapter, can't wait for more! Author's Response: I felt like I sort of had to do something at this point -- though in "story time" it's only been a couple days, in chapters its been a very long time and, given all he's been through, I think you're right -- if not now, when!?
Their communication is pretty good; it'll have to be better still at the psychologist's office. Verbal communication is one tool that will be very valuable to Brian -- he'll be practicing it a lot in this fic -- of necessity, b/c of his current illnesses, and the verbal communication is all he has to bridge the gap between him and Justin / the rest of the world.
Thanks so very much for your great feedback; it's so helpful while planning the next chapter!

Date: August 24, 2010 Title: Chapter 18: An Entity to Fight Great start to the therapy! The suit is a nice touch. Brian wears Armani like a suit of armour which he really needs right now. When Brian suits up it gives him confidence and strength. It makes him look powerful because he doesn't feel very powerful right now. His self image is so fragile right now that he needs all the help he can get. Brian seems to see himself as almost a leper. The way he describes the sores and that touch would hurt. I'm so glad he admitted that he had Justin in his life. Justin needs to sit in with the therapist to be able to understand Brian's problem better. Maybe not with Brian, but at least see the doc. Justin and his love and the fact that Brian knows that he will always be there to help him is the key to getting Brian back on track. Super chapter! Good luck with your job situation. I'll keep sending out positive vibes for a good outcome! Ro
Author's Response: *grins* Yes, his suit!!! That's just what I was thinking when I described it and their interaction! I'm so happy that you picked up on it! *sighs happily* It brings up lots of issues -- Brian's insecurity, the safety of his persona, what he thinks he needs to be like (and why). All things for Dr. Tarrou to try to decipher... I like the idea of Justin going but not at the same exact time as Brian... I'm still deciding how to handle it. I hate deciding things like that because if I choose wrong, it becomes hard to fix in the story in a realistic way...
Thanks so much -- I have an interview Monday and I'm hoping to hear back from another place too (really, really hoping) so I think your positivity is working! Thanks and keep it coming! ;) Tiffany

Date: August 29, 2010 Title: Chapter 19: Say It Bravo! The doc making him open his mouth and speak. Shrugging and nods do not a conversation make! LOL I love the "homework" assignments. Letting Justin see him is exactly what he needs to do. Maybe Justin can help him dispel the false vision of his body that haunts him. This condition sounds a lot like what people with eating disorders deal with. They see themselves as fat when they actually weigh 90 lbs. soaking wet. How very sad that Brian has to equate everything with sex. He has so few ways to validate himself that sex is the main yardstick that he uses. Such a simple thing like shaking hands becomes a form of seduction for Brian. A prelude to the dance of his advertising prowess. Most cannot resist his charms. If he can't shake hands, he can't begin the seduction making that first eye contact if he thinks he is not beautiful anymore. It is all of a piece for him. If he can't sell himself (thinks he's ugly), he can't do business. If he can't get it up (radiation-deformed), he can't be the stud of Liberty. Brian totally discounts the intelligent, talented and caring man that he is without the sex to validate him. I find it fascinating that he can see those things and promote them in Justin to help him recover after the bashing, but forgets those very things about himself. Anyway, I ramble. BTW, I'm so glad the positive vibes are helping! And, I would love to see some of your research. Keep it coming! Ro Author's Response: Exactly! The doctor has a long way to go before one could call it a "conversation" but at least she got some verbal responses out of him. As you'll see, Justin hasn't seen -- yet, but he will soon (next chapter). You're right -- the condition is very similar to with those with eating disorders go through. In fact, some consider that a subset or type of BDD. I love your analysis of his seductive powers as a businessman; that's such an eloquent way of viewing what I was aiming for. He does have a tendency to discount the other aspects of himself, outside of his looks and sex appeal -- that's an issue that Dr. Tarrou will be getting into later in the story. As you say, he knows the value of other traits in others (Justin) but struggles to apply that to himself. I'm really excited by your review because it shows me that I've gotten some of the main themes of the story across-- so don't apologize for rambling! :) The good vibes helped a lot -- thanks again for that! The new job is much better than the old one, even if the commute is twice as long! :) Oh, and the research chapter -- I haven't forgotten, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to post it.

Date: November 15, 2010 Title: Chapter 21: Ten Seconds How clever of Justin to put his response to seeing Brian in sexual terms. His dick responding to Brian's dick. Perfect! Glad he forced the issue. Brian would just keep putting it off. Justin really needs to sit in on at least one of Brian's sessions so that they can work together on the touching issue. I still believe that once Brian gets over the that issue things will progress much faster. He is such a tactile person that not touching is complicating everything even more. Great chapter! Looking forward to more! How's the new job going? Hope everything is well with you and RL. Ro Author's Response: You're definitely thinking along the same lines as Dr. Tarrou. She's going to discuss the touching issue with him privately in Ch. 23 and then in the next session -- I'm thinking that'll be Ch. 25 but I could be wrong -- with B/J together. It'll be a long and extremely gradual process of recovery for that -- it's my most speculative psych construct in the story, but I'm looking forward to exploring it and trying to get it across as well as I can! :)
The job's alright; a mixed bag like anything else I suppose... I've been sick but at least that's enabled me to get a lot of writing done! :) I hope you're doing well! :) :) Thanks again for the review and support of the story!

Date: November 29, 2010 Title: Chapter 22: Choices Would someone please explain to me why men insist on acting like they don't need any help! It's like the refusing to ask for directions thing until they are hopelessly lost! Who made this rule; the same guy that said men don't cry? What a bunch of horse dodo! Whew, thanks for letting me get that out! Sorry for the rant, but I get so frustrated with men and those attitudes. I know Brian was raised by the worst kind of ultra macho bully, but if Brian would recall, he died of cancer because he refused to get help soon enough. I think Brian got help for the cancer soon enough, but he needs to get help for his head before he freaks out in the wrong place and blows his cover. Wow, neither of those drugs sound very appealing. I think Brian's hope of going back to work after a treatment is a real pipe dream. He needs to turn the reins over to Cynthia and Ted in the afternoons and call it a day. If he hasn't figured out yet that he can trust Cyn with everything and that she will not pity him, just support him to the death, he doesn't know her very well. He needs more of a support system than just Justin. Justin needs someone else in the loop that he can lean on. Who better than his real other best friend who always has his back. As always I curse Brian's horrible parents for instilling this deep seated mistrust of everything and everyone. If you can't trust your parents, who can you trust? Interesting that Brian has to give up the recreational drugs for a while. Did he really think he could party as usual while he was having treatments? Brian is going to have to find new forms of pain management for a bit and then maybe they will continue after this is all over. Right! LOL Anyway great chapter! Feel better soon! Drink some herb tea with zinc and vitamin C, that might help. :+) Ro Author's Response: You know --- you just brought up such a good point! I never thought too much about bringing in Brian's dad and his cancer treatment! Wow, what a wonderful idea!! Thanks so much! I'll be sure to thank you in the chapter where it comes in! :) :) I'm not sure that it's a matter of not knowing Cyn or Justin very well -- the way I see it, it's more about how he sees himself and what makes him valuable as a person. On an unconscious level, he sees his value as coming from his beauty and his strength. Absent that, he's lost and unfortunately doesn't have / hasn't yet allowed himself the full experience of finding out that people care about him for other reasons. He's starting to see that a bit with Justin, and he will soon with Cynthia too. It's a big thing for him to learn and might be one of the best things that will come out of treatment.
I haven't decided yet were the drug issue will go, but it sure does have many fun possibilities! :)

Date: December 14, 2010 Title: Chapter 24: In the Moment This would be a great time for Justin to wake up and comfort Brian. To let him know that he is not rejecting him. Yes, this does bring a tear to the eye. Anytime Brian is emotional it brings a tear to my eye. Mostly because it happens so seldom. I found myself wanting to hold Brian as well. The sign of a great writer is when they can make you cry over fictional characters. You do that quite often. Thank you! Ro Author's Response: It would be -- believe me, I'm dying to write the comfort side of this h/c fic!! In order for the comfort side to have maximum effect though I have to do this -- I think of it as some sort of seesaw -- the depth of the pain is equal to the high we'll get from the comfort. So I just keep digging! :)
Thanks so much for your ever-kind and encouraging words!!

Date: February 14, 2011 Title: Chapter 27: At the Office Together Wonderful! Finally, Brian is willing to let Justin in a bit more. I just wish he didn't think that voicing his fears makes him a sap. For a minute there I thought you were gonna have Justin whip it out right there in the office! LOL Maybe that would have let Brian know that just because the doc is a straight female that she was cool with them being gay. :+) I'm so glad that Brian does realize that Justin is right there with him and is sincere about being there for the long haul. It would be awesome to have Justin touch himself and let Brian know that he's thinking about him the whole time. Thinking about how he makes him feel sexy and hot and wanted. Thinking about how he turns him on and always will. Thank you for writing such a thoughtful and thought provoking story. Can't wait for more. Hope all is well with you and yours, Ro Author's Response: LOL! I know I'm so late in responding, but I've laughed so many times at the idea of Justin doing a little peep show at the doc's office...! Not a bad idea, really, for a later chapter...

Justin had all kinds of grounds because of everything that happened during the school year. He would not have had to borrow money from Brian for PIFA and that prick Hobbs would have had to pay through the nose for his homophobic attitude.

Date: July 26, 2010 Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Bravo Ben! He deserves so much more than being a place holder for Brian, because that is what "two old queens in Palm Springs" means. Brian has chosen his life partner, now Michael needs to really choose. He married Ben still thinking that he would be able to keep Brian on the side never having a real life of his own, just being at his and Lindsey's beck and call. Lindsey has the same desires. She picked Mel for her wife, but expected Brian to stay Peter Pan forever and not have a real life of his own. Watch the episode before their wedding(that Brian saved)when Brian offers Lindsey the tickets to FL for a honeymoon. He was trying to change then, but she refused to "ask him to change" so sincerely....gag me. That is just one of many times I was yelling at my TV. You are doing a great job of finding the voice of Justin that I feel was suppressed by Cowlip in later seasons. They totally wimped his character out, but I won't get started on that or we'll be here all night. Good job!

I have caught so many people saying insulting things about minorities and let them know that they didn't know who they were talking to when they can't see their faces. Thanks again, Ro Author's Response: You know ,I don't usually get all political on people in my fics, I save that for when we're in person... Ha, Ha, Ha... Sorry, you have to understand before I found QAF (the Bush years) I was a political junkie... Later Darling ~ Kathleen Summary: Car Talk…

So glad you liked my car humor, I don't think Mr. BMW has a clue what he's in for... I'm still drooling over the image of Brian in all black leather straddling his new toy...

Date: August 20, 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 ~ Pouty and Shouty… Loving this verrrrrry much! Who better to give "Mikey" a wake up call than his GA! A snarky one to boot! LOL Thanks much! Ro Author's Response: Your comment bring a huge smile to my face... Yeah, I was pretty snarky, but he just drives me crazy and I want the whining to stop... Later Baby ~ Kathleen Summary:
Hello everyone. Today is my Third Anniversary. Yes, today is the day that I posted my very first fanfic story. I can't believe how fast time has flown. This is the 72nd story or poem I've posted and I've loved writing them all. I hope you will enjoy this new short story. I've decided to make it a post-Season 5 event that takes it forward a couple of decades to see what ended up happening to our beloved Brian and Justin. I have no banner right now since my favorite banner makers are far too busy preparing for the new school year and enjoying their last days of Summer vacation. I may have one in future. I do still have my beloved beta, Judy, and I thank her from the bottom of my heart for all her help. As always I welcome any comments you may have. Thank you one and all for all your support these past delicious three years. I hope to give you more entertainment in the future during my fourth year. So now, on with our story.

Date: August 20, 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Our Two Sons Happy Anniversary! Excellent story! Can't wait for the next 3 years! Ro Author's Response: Thank you Ro. I truly appreciate your comments. I have a file full of plots that I want to tackle over this next year. I just hope I am able to get to as many as I can. Huge hugs, Grammy Summary:
This is what I like to pretend is the lost epilogue episode of season five. Picks up six months after all canon events of the finale. The *Super Sappy Happy* ending, my 'inner Brian & Justin loving fairy princess' imagines really happened. Includes a wrap up of sorts for everyone. No character hate (unless you count Joan Kinney, I do not)...only love inside :) Categories: QAF-U.S. FICTION, Brian/Justin, Could be Canon, Humor, Romance, Toppy!

Date: September 06, 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Almost Ever After Lovely! Too bad Cowlip didn't have any vision and didn't even understand their own characters. Wouldn't mind a sequel. Ro Author's Response: Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts. As for a sequel, I have toyed with making this a series. :) Summary:
Sequel to CHOCOLATE KISSES /3wks later Insecurities, Immodesty & Inquisitive friends, induce chaos of elephant sized proportions on Sunnybrooke Academy's Overnight trip to the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium.

That being said, you have just blown any that I have read, right out of the water! WOW! Thank you for that! This includes the previous chapter with the SH clues. Who knew that Brian was a poet? LOL Can't wait for the next adventure! Ro Summary:
