When Karma comes for her pay back she makes sure the champagne is chilled, the food is beyond excellent and she is dressed to kill cause this is her Oscar night and the nominees are going to wish they had never been born.

Every dirty secret scam, scheme, lie is about to come Out and the action doesn't stop until she tells 'That's A Wrap'.

Lindsay his drugs in the storage unit?

DUMBASS!!!

She couldn't plan her way out of an open vault much less a paper bag with holes in it without a screwing that up worse than Michael.

She should just kiss her life goodbye because she won't be out before Gus or the twins have their first child.

Nancy is Hilarious.

Lynette would do well to listen to get her mother and retire her battery operated friend lol

Mel is embracing her future by changing her present to fit the person she not what Lindsay Lindsay made her before.

A new place is a good way to go at a new beginning.

Thanks For the Update 😃

Did my review three times with this chapter... the last time writing everything out by hand, and not copying from the chapter. WHY are there such wide spaces between sentences?

I hope we're privy for Daphne and Phoebe's 'talk'. I was hoping for more from Phoebe. I DO hope Ethan doesn't have another one of his 'manic' episodes when he's alone with Daphne. Although I know Daph is not someone you want to mess with, but if 'crazy' makes itself known, she might not be safe.

I could have continued to listen to the smackdown. Hopefully the next chapter gives us the Dastardly Duo's impression of it. Yes, Lindsay should really listen when things are said, as she had just told that she didn't have a pot to piss in. And let's not forget... she didn't even bat an eye ... or comment ... on the fact that she was missing Gus' first steps. BITCH!

Poor Brian sure has the mantra: As long as he doesn't know, I can live with that... down pat.

So Justin is delusional when it comes to Ethan and his anger and jealousy. He's making a quick exit... stage left... maybe Ethan has some cuts on his hands. But without seeing him, he's not going to know. Damn... where is that security video?

I was going to quit for the night, but well, Mel and Ben just came in... gotta run...

HUGS  ~Cathy

Didn't anyone think it strange that Lindsay had Ethan's phone number? I mean, why would Lindsay have Ethan's cell phone number?

Why didn't they kick Michael out of the hospital? Why was there not more shock to Emmett voicing the fact that that was what Michael had said at the Anniversary party? I'm surprised Debbie didn't haul off and WHACK him again at that pronouncement. Timeline must be moved up here as Michael was referred to Novotny-Bruckner. Thank GOD Ben got a clue. Now Michael has no money... where is he going to lay his head?

Jennifer was awfully quiet at the hospital. You would think hearing Michael say those words, she would have hauled off and said or did something.

Ethan better slick off into the sunset. Or preferably Africa. Because when Brian views that video... dun, dun, dun, dunnn....

I wondered WHY Mel thought it necessary to call Lindsay in the first place regarding Justin. She KNEW Lindsay's feelings regarding Justin, so it just does not make any sense to me. Hopefully Lindsay will be joining Michael very soon looking for somewhere to lay her head. Her entitlement issues last chapter made me want to hurl!

HUGS  ~Cathy

Fucking Michael!

Cathy

Hey! It's meeeee....

it seems I'm on a "let's reread all of Nichelle's stories" kick. I know I have not read the last few chapters that were posted of this story, as I didn't remember it well enough to know what was going on. 

I DEFINITELY didn't remember about the screwing out of the RAGE profits. But yet I remember Justin holding all copyright to his artwork. Weird how your mind filters certain things about a story. Hmm... down the line I do know what happens when Ron and nancy purchase said artwork... but I think that's where I quit reading.

Well, just to touch on the ending of this chapter...

PLEASE... send Ethan to some remote island. Get him away from Justin. As much as I 'love to hate' Michael and Lindsay, I am loathe of Ethan. That guy makes my skin crawl. There is something about his character that rubs me the wrong way. Totally different from how Dumb and Dumber do. Ethan makes me Cringe. Just his: No, Justin is mine and anything that stands in the way of us being together, has to be removed at all cost and that includes his friends. I'll have to see to it.  Makes me want to crash my computer so I don't have to see and read his name anymore. Lord I just shivered.

Enjoying this immensely...

HUGS  ~Cathy

so glad for Brian, Justin and Mel.  All the other s Micheal, Lindsey etc can go to hell

Hope they do not let Debbie into their lives

Story sounded familiar and relized I did read it and bookmarked at Archive ofourown.  But only there it stopped at chapter 43

Yes one thing about Brian and Justin is that when the mood suits them they never hold back and afterwards they are full with more clarity.

A place but enough for four adults and three kids would be perfect cause it allows them all to co-parent while also giving everyone space when they need it, plus with Princess Cruella dripping poison in each other's ears they can develop the friendship they should have years ago, Mel is seeing for the first time that there was nothing to be jealous of Brian isn't a curious kid or bisexual so Lindsay never stood a chance of getting Brian in her bed again.

Mel is seeing that Brian isn't to blame for her insecurities it was Lindsay and her games plus her constant need for attention.

I also think making sure Deb doesn't have a way to come over and constantly badger Brian, Justin and Melanie as the trials move closer, Deb has to learn that her actions helped to contribute to Michael's behavior long before Brian came in the picture, she just conditioned everyone else to do the same so she could have peace, now there is no one to protect her from this fallout and there is no safety net to clean up this mess.

Of course my money is on Grandma Jenn putting Deb in her place while wearing fabulous shoes or at least setting them aside and if Daphne is aro find too then all bets are off lol

Thanks for the Update :)

Love the plan for the living arrangements.  Now to wait for what you plan for next.

Re-reading the story over again I laughed cause Lindsay is going to blow a gasket when she finds out her parents are very accepting of Melanie, Brian, Justin and everyone else but not her.

And that Ronald, Nancy, Jennifer and Brian's real father will be grandparents to Jennifer Renee Taylor-Kinney, Jordan Raymond Taylor-Kinney and Gus Marcus Taylor-Kinney and Lynette will enjoy being Aunt to them.

Plus how Melanie will enjoy being Mommy to all three kids while Lindsay  will be nothing but the incubator for Gus and the donor Little Jenn and Jordan.

Plus Michael's reaction when the finds out that he has no ties to the babies and the money he shelled out went to help Lindsay lol

Deb like Michael expects instant forgiveness for her her cruel behavior and hateful words but right now Brian and Justin are not in the mood to placate het, especially when like Michael she only means I'm sorry until the next crisis involving Michael pops up.

Deb is still trying to figure out out to save Michael while also keeping everyone under her thumb and until she really admits that everything she said and felt towards Brian and Justin is true she can't heal anything.

Her love like Michael's halo is fickle and only serves her and Michael that is why no one is coming to get rescue cause this time Deb has to save herself and she also has to learn that putting Michael's needs and demands above everyone else means that she had to face the consequences not  bury her head in the sand.

Yeah!!! They must feel ecstatic! Justin more than Brian who already has a kid. How a bad situation gives them so blinding smiles and knowing how Lindsay is going to be hysterical is the best reward.

Debbie is just too deep into Michael's protection that she can't help herself and has to find more excuses. She really needs to take some hours off and think of what Vic told her.

So Brian has a girl and Justin has a boy.  Instant family.  Love that things are clearer as to the parentage of the children and that Craig will not be able to get to them.  Should be an interesting continuation of the story with them raising them.  ( hint, hint)-  I like the perspective of Vic telling the story.  Great that Mel is willing to help the guys and be the mom figure.
