I wonder if the Kinnetik employees are working for a nicer guy, whose attitude and anger have taken a rest. I know he's not the perfect boss, but I bet he's a lot more tolerable.
I'm surprised Brian hasn't banned Garnet. As the signs say: We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. It's not due to discrimination, religion, or any of those specific rules.
It's because Garnet is a 100% Prime, Grade-A asshole.
Very good story.
Author's Response: Thanks for the comments. And yes, Garnet is a 100% Prime Grade-A asshole.

The sneezing at 'old' is such a unique way of writing. I've never read anything like that. Granted, it's a case of what Brian should be having... as he's well past 30. ;)
So they finally figured out neither one of them is perfect, making them perfect for each other.

Brian should realize the difference between Justin and Garnet, and know Justin woldn't hurt him the way Garnet did. If he didn't think Brian was perfect anymore, he wouldn't have come to the photo shoot, and he wouldn't have agreed to dinner with Brian.
I'm fairly certain that over dinner, Justin will find out the truth.

Well, that was sudden on Brian's part. How the words seemed to come out of their own will.
Justin ~ Yes, shocked by the out-of-the-blue comment.
And Brian didn't wait for a comment.
The ball's in Justin's court now.

It's a good thing Justin is persistent. I'm glad he could feel that Brian was affected by the kiss, too.
A date. Yay!
I don't think we have to worry about Brian fu**ing the waiter. ;)

Groveling... he should have improved his question and his entrance into Justin's home. Maybe he should have been on his knees in the five-finger prayer method when Justin answered the door. Justin would have gotten a good chuckle from that.

Holy Mother! Garnet is one huge asshole! I'd love to see the slime get prostate cancer! Cruel of me, I know. If you were trying to impress what a jerk he is ~ you accomplished that.
I hope Emmett or Ted gives Justin, Brian's address.
Okay ~ trying to picture Carl: proceeding to shake his booty ~ Ugh! what a picture that puts on my head. :D
BTW ~ I was so impressed with Standing in the Light, I put it up on KD FB as a "must read."
Also got your message about the banners. No problem.

Thank you, Ted. Brian really needed to hear that he needed to ease up on his employees. About the time Ted said mutiny, I was just thinking all the department heads should have meetings with their staff, and tell everybody to STAY HOME the following day. Brian can not fire everybody, and he would have hopefully gotten the message loud and clear. Hopefully.
Babylon's a goldmine. Now, who will be a good manager?

Oh, Brian. What are you doing? He knew why Justin invited him over to hos place. He should have known that if sex was even offered, he could have said, 'not yet.' which could be taken that Brian wasn't ready since Garnet.
And what kind of stupid ass was Garnet? Is it Garnet who put those thoughts in Brian's head? He's less-than-perfect now? Lord, I hope Garnet didn't humiliate Brian in front of some of those fine people he referred to.
So Brian is reduced to hiring hookers. Is he able to get off with them? "Make sure he knows the rules." Is that to not touch Brian, or are they not allowed to say anything about the lack of one of his boys?
[Report This]Date: Jul 02, 2025 10:34 pm Title: Chapter 4
First off, I think for Brian to feel the most comfortable getting back into sex, he needs to do it at home, and not the backroom with hundreds of guys around. He also could control it more easily where Justin touches.
Do Ted and Emmett not know about Brian not having sex? It didn't seem like it.
Poor Justin. What will he think of Brian now. No more drinks and talk at Flanagan's Bar.

I think Brian found his new investment. This is a good thing... for Ted. I'm surprised the poor man hasn't had an aneurysm.
I'm curious if the "old flame and Babylon" are connected, making that a place Brian doesn't visit anymore.
Anyway, that's what I meant regarding: You can take them and make them your own.

Oh mercy me... Brian has it bad. :D
I understood the time nursing beers. And maybe the twenty-minute wait in his car. After that? All the driving around... yeah, Mr. Kinney is smitten. ;)

I kind of like seeing Brian and Justin meeting in a different way. You can take them and make them your own.
Let me guess? Kinnetik is going to need someone for an underwear ad? ;)

I loved this story. It was perfect.

I love that it isn't perfect because nothing really is.

The date was great. But Brian definitely has to work on the ending.

Brian seems almost depressed. I hope he will be better soon.

At least Brian is talking to Justin. That's a start. Now he just has to be brave enough to open up some more.
Author's Response: You know how hard that is for Brian.

That probably won't go over well with Justin. I know I would be so pissed.
Author's Response: You're right.
