Sad that Brian had to be the one to bolster Mikey much to his own detriment.



Author's Response:

Brian just wants to ensure Michael is okay...Michael is his brother. And Brian wants to pretend he doesn't have feelings...

What a powerful chapter.  Could just picture everyone going through their own personal grief.  Fantastic writing.



Author's Response:

Thank you <3 :)

Justin better find some anger to direct at Brian  to take better care of himself before he winds up back in the hospital with another infection. Mourning is one thing, but Deb wouldn't be at all happy with the gang if she could see them now.

She was such a vibrant woman that they should celebrate her life. She lived it to the fullest.



Author's Response:

Yes, she would want them to smile and remember her fondly...they'll get there, but they need to grieve first. Brian learned his lesson the last time, but he has a lot of distractions right now, unfortunately.

I didn't think you were going to continue the story but write one shots in the universe.  So happy to see a continuation of the universe eventhough it is a sad situation.  They are together and there for each other.  Can't wait for more.



Author's Response:

This set out to be a one shot but then it got too long...so I divided it up. :)

This must have been hard to write.  But, you did an amazing job.  



Author's Response:

Yes, this story was definitely challenging to put together, and it got more challenging as it went on...but I hope you guys will like how it turns out. <3

Who knew that getting a rental car could be so difficult.  Now the really hard part begins.



Author's Response:

Yes, it can be -- some people have no trouble with bringing and using their own portable hand controls, while others get refused service, and technically the car rental companies can do it because it is their vehicle and the customer is installing equipment. And yes, once they get to Michael's...that's where things get much, much harder...

A bit surprised Brian held in his feelings for as long as he did. Poor rental guy.

Yeah going to be a long difficult time ahead.



Author's Response:

Brian is pretty good at holding things in, especially when he doesn't want to be feeling them. And the car rental guy was in the wrong place at the wrong time...

Perfect look at how Brian felt and how Justin did his best to help.



Author's Response:

Thank you <3 Justin is a good partner to Brian. I love writing this version of them and their interaction with each other is a big part of why.

Great update.  At least Deb and Carl will now be together.  We always feel guilt when someone dies just like Brian is.  Should have called, should have visited, etc., but it doesn't change anything.  Terrific writing.



Author's Response:

Thanks <3 And yes, I think it's a normal part of grief...maybe part of the bargaining stage, wishing you'd done things differently.

Yeah I tried....I just can’t, I don’t do death fics very well. Maybe I’ll come back when it’s completed that way I can shore up my strength.



Author's Response:

I understand <3 thanks for trying!

Brian always has a deep rooted guilt when something happens involving someone he loves. Not always a good thing.

It's going to take them a while to come to grips with all of this. I glad they have the house to go home to. Staying in a hotel at a time like this would only raise their anxiety levels and stress them out even more.



Author's Response:

Yes, having the house is a huge help! They have a rough road ahead of them, with a lot to work through.

I'm hooked!  It's so rare to see Brian break down.  You wrote that beautifully.  Can't wait for more.

Hugs,
Jessica



Author's Response:

Thank you! It's a tough thing to write but it is one of the advantages of keeping this story in this verse is that Brian is slightly more open, at least with Justin. I'm glad you liked it!

Oh no.  What a shock.  



Author's Response:

Yes...certainly some unexpected news out of Pittsburgh. :(

How horrible. Brian lost the only loving mother he's ever had. Justin lost a second mother too.

Felt Justin's pain trying to decide what to do to get to Brian as fast as he could.

Time to go home.



Author's Response:

This is going to be a very tough, very emotional time for both of them, but especially for Brian.

Oh, wow, tissue box out on chapter one.  Always expect this to happen, but when it does it is still a shock.  Your writing is amazing.



Author's Response:

You'll definitely want some tissues for this story, for sure. It's going to be a very emotional ride. <3
