Mikey's heart is in the right place, yet he is an enabler. I love Mikey.
Anyway, Justin isn't right for cheating on Brian with Ethan.
It doesn't make Justin right but I can empathize with him more and
understand him more. Brian loves Justin but from Justin's perspective,
he doesn't remember the prom, doesn't know that Brian was at the
hospital every night-doesn't know that not only did Brian take him in
because of the bashing but because Brian already is in love with him.
And when things got too cozy for comfort, Brian starts systematically
pushing Justin away. First with the zuchinni man thru the VT trip. In
Justin's eyes, Brian acts like he loves Justin but then does a 180 and
acts like Justin is a piece of dust. So, in a way Brian starts Justin
longing for something definitive to see that Brian' loves him. Brian
says he "wouldn't" give Justin the romance which is totally different
from the word cannot- and Justin' growing need to have gestures of love
leads him to cheat on Brian.
But, Justin was in the wrong mostly.
Update soon!

This is a promising fic. One where you don't make it all Brian's fault for Justin cheating on Brian with Ethan. Brian was there for Justin emotionally especially after the bashing, Justin didn't want to fix things so he took the easy way out by screwing Ethan. Brian's fault is that when he is hurt, he pushes them away...Justin's fault is that he lets Brian push him off of Mount Kinney. You'd think Justin would have figured that out. I hope Justin gets a hard reality check. Update soon

I am really looking forward to the next chapter. Well done.
Author's Response: I'm quite looking forward to the next chapter too! I'm not a real planner when it comes to writing. I have a vague idea about the whole story and how I want it to end, but how it gets there is anybody's guess! The whole scene with Michael was completely spontaneous!

I can't believe Michael said that to Justin! He's such an ass! Justin is right, Michael was an enabler. What kind of person just sits by watching their "best friend" try to kill themself continuosly?!
Author's Response: A pretty weak one in my opinion! I think Michael is probably lashing out because he does feel guilty but it's easier to push all the blame onto Justin. I think it will be interesting to see how Brian and Michael get on the next time they meet...

Mickie is still crazy and missing a brick or three. Justin needs to remember the first part of that conversation with Mikie he spoke. Hopefully someone will give him some good advice, a nurse or the Father at the hospital. Wonderful chapter, love how Justin called Brian on everything. Can't wait to read the next chapter.
Author's Response: Glad you liked :) I think both Justin and Brian need some impartial advice.

fucking michael. he has to learn to keep his damn mouth shut. justin was going to help brian. now, who knows. i hate the uncertainty that he's feeling.
Author's Response: Michael's never been well known for keep his mouth shut! Hopefully, Justin will see sense...

thanks so much for the great update, keep up the good work you are doing a wonderful job with tis story please update soon. Hugs Buffytess
Author's Response: I don't think Justin would ever really give up on Brian - I think Michael has just put some doubts in his mind. Glad you liked it and hopefully it won't be as long to the next chapter!
Reviewer: gerri (Signed) · Date: November 13, 2008 07:53 PM · On: Chapter 5
Michael, Michael, Michael when will you learn? I hope Justin listens to his gut and continues to help Brian, he needs Justin.
Reviewer: Kat (Signed) · Date: August 04, 2008 03:48 AM · On: Chapter 4
Good for Justin letting Brian have it! This is a good first step for them, but as Brian says the storm isn't over yet.
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: August 04, 2008 03:05 AM · On: Chapter 4
"The storm may have passed for now, but he had a good idea it wasn’t over yet." boy has he got that right. by the time everyone is done with him he'll have wished he was still in the hospital where there would be peace and quiet. i do love a take charge justin.
Reviewer: Kat (Signed) · Date: July 23, 2008 09:37 PM · On: Chapter 3
Yes, Justin made the right choice! He saved Brian's life. So happy he had the insight to go into the loft and once inside, know something wasn't right.
Author's Response: It would have been a very different story if he hadn't gone in! (and much too depressing)
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: July 23, 2008 06:23 AM · On: Chapter 3
damn. brian was so close. justin is going to lay into him like never before. which is what he deserves for pulling that stunt in the first place. which is also better than joining brian swallowing in his self pity.
Author's Response: Hopefully, Justin will make Brian see that what he did was stupid and wrong. Thank you for your reviews, they are very inspiring!
Reviewer: Lynn (Anonymous) · Date: July 22, 2008 07:33 PM · On: Chapter 3
This is really good! *g* Looking forward to what happens when Brian wakes up. Great chapter.
Author's Response: Thank you! Glad you liked it. Brian is in for a whole lot of trouble when he wakes up!
Reviewer: lil sunshine (Signed) · Date: July 22, 2008 04:29 PM · On: Chapter 3
I'm a little worried what the family are going to say to Justin - specifically Michael - when they find out...
Author's Response: Actually, I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with that yet! I don't think Michael will be all that shocked that Brian tried to kill himself, after all it nearly happened in season 1, but I think he'll be pretty pissed at Justin for keeping it from him...
Reviewer: carbon69 (Signed) · Date: July 22, 2008 10:20 AM · On: Chapter 3
glad you decided to have Justin find Brian in time-good job!
Author's Response: I hate death fics! So there was no chance I'd let Brian die. Still, I think Justin is going to make him regret even trying...
Reviewer: Kat (Signed) · Date: July 19, 2008 01:20 AM · On: Chapter 2
You know Justin had an inkling that he had to get back to the loft! Stay Justin!! Can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Hopefully you'll be happy with the next chapter! Glad you'rer enjoying my little story :)
Reviewer: carbon69 (Anonymous) · Date: July 18, 2008 05:21 PM · On: Chapter 1
hmmm...you can go either way with this. maybe you can write 2 stories/endings one with Justin leaving and one with him deciding to confront Brian! I think you are doing a great job so update soonest...please!
Author's Response: Thank you, that's very kind of you. Hopefully I will be able to update soon, as it's the weekend! As for 2 stories/endings - that's a good idea and would be quite interesting. Initially, I'll stick to the story I had in mind when I started this, but there may well be an alternative.
Reviewer: alys (Anonymous) · Date: July 18, 2008 04:40 PM · On: Chapter 2
Be decicisive Justin! You left Ethan asap. Now get on that white horse and rescue Brian. ;-) Great chapter and story. Definately in character for both of them.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! This is my first story in the QAF fandom and it was a bit nerve-wracking posting. Hopefully Justin will make the right decision...
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: July 18, 2008 03:32 PM · On: Chapter 2
well he came to his senses. for some reason i don't care if he stays or goes. there's an awful lot of work up ahead for the both of them.
Author's Response: Yes, there will be lots of reprisals...
Reviewer: Roberta (Anonymous) · Date: July 18, 2008 03:13 PM · On: Chapter 2
Oh Justin, please don't leave!
Author's Response: You wouldn't think Justin would, would you? ;-)
Reviewer: lil sunshine (Signed) · Date: July 18, 2008 12:33 PM · On: Chapter 2
Oh no Justin, go back!!!
More please.
Author's Response: I'll try to not keep you waiting too long!
Reviewer: carbon69 (Signed) · Date: July 15, 2008 02:59 AM · On: Chapter 1
you better! please do.
Reviewer: Kat (Signed) · Date: July 15, 2008 12:44 AM · On: Chapter 1
I'm curious to see what happens, but I agree that I want to see Brian fight.
Reviewer: alys (Anonymous) · Date: July 14, 2008 08:31 PM · On: Chapter 1
Yes, Justin has to save the day! Hopefully by thinking on the way to E's and changing his mind and returning w/o even seeing E.
Author's Response: Well, we all like Justin to save the day! Answers will be coming soon :)
Reviewer: lil sunshine (Signed) · Date: July 14, 2008 04:13 PM · On: Chapter 1
Oh no....Brian, fight for your sunshine you git!!
Author's Response: I see Brian as being in a great pit of despair at this point, thinking that he's done the right thing by Justin, but suffering terribly because of it. He's not thinking clearly at this point, believing that no one needs him, but hopefully someone will soon put him straight!
Reviewer: sjmpets3 (Signed) · Date: July 14, 2008 12:37 PM · On: Chapter 1
if you let brian take the cowards way out, because to me it seems dying would be easier than having to go on living with or without his sunshine, then no don't continue it. if you want to show us that he's willing to fight for his happiness, then yes please continue. the choice is yours alone.
Author's Response: Interesting... Neither quite fits in with the storyline I have in mind, but I will definitely bear it in mind when it comes to the ramifications of his actions (I won't say more than that as I don't want to give too much away).
