Some sad things, some funny moments (Deb breaking Captain Astro); as you wrote, let the games begin! I thought it has already started with all epic previous events!

I actually got a little teary right along with Faal. I get the feeling he and Zee haven't really had true friends before who just loved them for them. Brian and Justin are just what they needed, I think, and vice versa. Talk about two power couples that together could probably take over the world.
*cackles with glee at them planning to take Mikey's store*
Poor Brian. I'm glad to see Carl acting as a father figure to him, he certainly needs that. Damn Michael.

Debbie accidentally hurting Captain Astro is hilarious. What is David's plan with Michael? I have to find out.

This feels bigger than a tornado -lol. Wow, drama with a capitol damn Mikey abused their grocery account! This is so good for the Mikey mess but also the really sweet relationships you've written. I am enjoying the trip scenery and all.
Author's Response:
Oh yeah! There is another bit of sweetness coming. You thought Emmett was tough...just wait.
Hope you stay with me.
Happy reading

Omg when Brian cries...everyone cries...he is totally done with 'shit for brains' aka Michael. So so sad...Carl is a good man. So supportive & sweet. I wanted to reach into the story and hug Brian so badly...and kick the shit out of Michael! Jesus, Justin is going to have a field day with him, can't wait!
Author's Response:
Oh Glo!
So glad you are still with me. I did wibble [I love that word] when Carl finally got Brian to seek comfort from him, it is the start of the father/son relationship he needs and it is cemented further down the line.
Yep some serious ass kicking is coming but they have to be careful not to bait the trap to quickly.
Hopefully enjoy C13, a bit long but it needed to be to get through the "week".

Michael has know idea the Hell he has coming his way!
I admire Emmett for kicking Michael to the curb and I love Drew for having his back, it is really sad when you come to realize that there are those who are good friends and those who abuse friendship for their own selfish reasons.
I loved when Jennifer put Michael in his place and also left him with a warning, I kinda wish Michael had went to talk to I would love to see Jennifer eviscerate him, of course now that Michael had officially burnt all his bridges it looks like Jennifer might get her chance after all.
I see Michael has incurred a long waiting line of people who want to kick his ass.
Deb breaking the arm of that dumb statute and ruining some comics is the least of Michael's worries he has a whole lotta trouble about to come, Mel is going to be beyond pissed when she finds out what Michael has been up to.
Brian finding comfort with Carl was so moving and what he needed at the moment was the arms of a father to ease the pain of a weary soul.
Justin eased the pain of a broken heart with love and hot steamy passion it was just what Brian needed to help him process that the Brian and Mikey Show is officially done, it had been hanging on by a thread but Michael severed it FOREVER.
I Can't Wait For The Next Chapter :)
Author's Response:
Indeed he does not, the problem with Michael is that he thinks that people believe the half assed stories he says. It was hard for Emmett but it had to be done.
Oh trust me Jennifer has more shit to rain on Michael's parade but of course he doesn't see that coming.
As for Carl, I did have to wibble when I wrote that, Brian needs a dad and Carl is it for life.
And you are exactly right, with regards to Justin's easing of his pain was what he needed, he knows that he loves him but he needed him to "love him" for him...not the Stud, not the supposed "best friend of Mikey" and not the ad exec just for being him...sniffle.
Hope you enjoy C13, it is a bit long but it had to be.
Happy reading.

So the chapter title is a bit daunting. :)
I guess David's son obviously on to David's schemes from before and has taken himself out of his life. I wonder what David's ideas are to get him back? And is he seriously thinking Michael can help him? That's laughable!! Yet...Michael is so gulible and naive that he wil do it unwittingly. I doubt he has any idea of how dangerous David may turn out to be. At least the necessary people will be protected from him. fortuately Justin and Brian will make sure of it. (Carl and Faal too) What a weight must be lifted from Faal's shoulder's now that Brian adn Carl have someone lined up to protect Zee.
Emmett is sticking to his original idea of kickign him out. Nothing that Michael could say will sway him, and Drew is right there supporting him. It's astounding that Michael is so oblivious. that he thinks he can rationalize everything. completely blind to reality. And now Jennifer is in on it too. Only her friendship with Deb is keeping her from "eviserating" him. LOL. Loved that part!! I have zero sympathy for Michael. He dug his own grave. amazing that he can't see himself as resonsible for any of it. As much as Ben seemed to be tempted, glad he stuck to it adn kept the door shut. He deserves to have some peace. Besides, there's not way Hunter would stick around if Michael was there. Even Deb is sticking to her guns! THAT is a huge relief. As a parent I get that she'd be tempted to help him out, but also, as a parent, she needs to cut the apron strings and let him sink or swim on his own.
OH WOW!!! Now we are finally at the crux of why David is back!! Not just Michael's current investments, but previous ones as well. And the gang is all fully aware of it now. WOW! Oh man. I really hate to say it, but a teeny part of me almost feels bad for Michael being so stupid, but then he opens his mouth and it all dissapates. He is in a whole heap of hot water and really has no idea as to the depth of it.
Is he really stupid enough to think he's going to get away with all he's involved in. (at least the stuff he's knowingly doing) the fact that he can justify everything too.....I wonder what the boys are going to do with the store once it's theirs? :)
Alice is on the ball! and once again, Michael is up to the same shit. thankfully Deb and Carl are so understanding and supportive. Let's face it, there's only so much a person can take. I have to say, is was really surprised at Carl adn Brian. In a good way. 2 tough assed men who have their facades up. Brian allowing himself to be treated to such support, and allowing himself to let it all go. My heart BROKE!
AS much as I would've like to hear Deb tear another one off of Michael...your outcome was priceless! I died laughing when I read that. His precious statue. BAHAHAHAHAH!
Justin took care of Brian in teh best way possible.
Brilliant update!!! Can't wait to see what's going to happen next!!!! Excited!!
Cheers,
Elaine
Author's Response:
Thanks Elaine, the family are only "supporting" Michael for as long as they need to secure Jenny's future. Yeah Alice she's never liked Michael and now she's been given tacit permission to tell him to eff off she's in her element. And I did wibble when I wrote the Brian and Carl bit. He loves him like a son and for Brian to finally see that, well sniffle!
Oh hell yeah Captain Astro had to be gone...more to come on his gone-ness.
Yeah Justin had to take care of his man though it took some persuading.
Chapter 13 is up. A bit long but hey when the muse is in!
Enjoy

Fantastic chapter. I especially loved the part where Deb fainted and caused all the damage. Now who is the mystery man that Brian got for Zee? With all the money Mikey owes he's never going to be able to pay. No more Red Cape Comic, maybe they can turn it into a Starbucks?
Author's Response:
Thank you again. I had to get rid of that damn statue in the most painful way possible bar a fire! The mystery man is just someone to watch over her for Faal's peace of mind. A starbucks now that would be good...yeah Mel thought that there was no way he would default but of course this is Mikey...
C13 is being worked on, hopefully up by the weekend.

OOOOOOOOOOMG!!!!!! Michael is burning bridges left and right!! I LOVED Emmett telling the jackass off! I know Drew was as happy as I was that he is finally rid of the moocher.
Zee is freaking amazing!! David and Michael deserve everything that's coming to them- one for being an arrogant son of a bitch (Apologies to bitches everywhere- myself included) and the other for being a self-servicing PAIN IN THE ASS!! I think it's a brilliant idea to involve Mel and Ted. Neither one of them will show any sympathy or mercy to Michael during their investigation of the 50K. He's such a DICKHEAD (Apologies to dickheads everywhere since I actually like you all in the proper context but let's face it, a stiff prick has no thought process or conscience).
I hope Justin fires Michael's non-existent ass up RIGHT! How dare the little ingrate use their grocery accounts thinking that he wouldn't eventually be caught or in Michael's case- that they wouldn't do anything. Justin needs to sue him for everything he's got and that he ain't got (yep Michael's bullshit has taken me back to the Brooklyn ghetto where I'm from). It's definitely time out for handling this fool with kid gloves. Time to throw some hard punches where it will hurt Michael the most...his wallet.
I feel so bad for Deb and Brian but am happy that they are truly wising up to that manipulative shithead .(apologies to shitheads everywhere. Most of you serve a purpose or a specific function but to group you with Michael Novotny...well it kind of can't be helped even though he is the most rotten of you all...). I don't think they should try to save Michael but fully let him reap what he is sowing. He's the one who wanted to play in the big leagues with an idiot like David so he should have to pay all the cost of his stupidity. I'm glad that Carl was able to deliver some serious humor to Deb after she fainted (I'm STILL Cackling about that- serves Captain Astro's 16K arm right since he ain't had no business there in the first place...LMFAO)- it was soooooo needed. And Justin's care of Brian resulted in a scene that was both sweet, spicy and HOTTTT!!
WRITE On Nicole!! And FAST!!

Hi Nichelle
I always thought that Emmett had a iron fist in that velvet glove of his, he's a Southern Boy after all. As usual Michael is using "he can afford it" rationalisation to justify his shopping...figuring that it is Justin's money he's spending...he keeps forgetting that they are a "we"...idiot fool boy!
Oh yes, Justin is going to go buckwild on Michael when Brian says its go time! They are only helping him so that Jenny is not left without...except the crushing disappointment that is her father...once the store in their hands...ooh yeah baby it will be go time! And I just had to destroy that damn statue!
C13 has already been begun...hopefully this weekend it will be up.
Thanks for all the encouragement!
