Hey! That's great that you could see your family and spend some time with them. I've never been to a "Schützenfest". But I also don't think that would be something for me. I'm glad that we hardly ever celebrate carnival here in Berlin or have a meadow festival like in Munich. It's not really my thing.

Gosh, it's really scary what's happening in America right now. I read that this Clarence Thomas would like to abolish other rights... it was about contraception and about same sex marriage. It's so horrible because it is just about the arbitrariness of these judges and not about what the majority of the people wants. It's so scary.

So now to your story. Thanks for another story in your wonderful saga! As always, very well written! I find it very, very sad how Mel acted (I've wrote it before that I actually liked her - a lot more, a thousand times more than Michael and Lindsay anyway) but ultimately, as you write, it's her loss because she is the one who is alone while Jenny has so many loving people around her, who care of her and love her. You mentioned that you're writing for a different fandom at the moment. I wish you lots of fun and success there, but I also hope that we will read something from you again sometime! All the best for you, stay healthy and hopefully we hear or read from you in the future! Warmest regards!

Good ending. Whatever happened to Lindsay? Is she still in prison? Will there be more?

Author's Response:

Luke is 15 in this story, Lindsay was sentenced to 17 years in prison when he was about 1 year old, so yeah, she would still be in prison.

Hi! Thanks for another beautiful chapter! That was a very good idea of Brian (or of you ;-) ) that Jenny gets the opportunity to meet Ben and Hunter. Finally a parent who is acting normal and who honestly cares about her!How are you otherwise?

I've had to think of you a few times this week. I watched this insane, disgustin video by this sick, insane Eric Greitens and got so angry. His Republican colleagues, who seem at least a bit normal, already get death threats and he affirms this. This guy is really disgusting, sick and dangerous. And in Texas, at a party convention, they passed a party program in which they not only described the election of Joe Biden as President of the United States as illegitimate, but also described homosexuality as an "abnormal way of life." And the war in Ukraine has been going on for 4 months and there is no end or solution in sight. What a sick world! And let's not talk about the Supreme Court... Now it's taking revenge that Trump had the opportunity to appoint new judges. What terrible developments.

So, I hope you are well! Looking forward to Sunday! Warmest regards!

Hi! Thanks for another chapter! No, Michael probably wouldn't have changed much if the series would have continued. I have to say that I generally like anti-Michael stories (and anti-Linds stories - think she is just as bad as Michael), although I'm also open to stories where the author just makes Michael a real best friend. Similar to Joan and Craig, if it's well written I'm open to anything. But if a writer leaves Michael's character as we encountered it on the show, I think realistically it can only be an anti-Michael-story. ;-) I'm curious to see what they're up to. Do they want to adopt Jenny? Is that even possible? Anyway, I'll have to wait until Sunday! Warmest regards!

Hi! Thanks for another chapter! It came as expected. Although, in my imagination the first thing Michael would do is ask where Brian is. Haha. But the way you described it made sense. What a stupid pathetic dumbass! Poor Jenny! But hey, she has her real "family" and I think she'll get through it just fine with their help! Looking forward to Sunday and warmest regards!

And it ended in tears!

Author's Response:

Sadly yes :( Not really surprising, though, I think...

Hi again! Yes, I think we have a similar view of Michael. Of course, one must not forget that it was only a TV series and the possibilities are limited, but it often annoyed me so much that so many storylines were not completed or remained open. Maybe that was intentional, I don't know. And so yes, I was also really really annoyed that Brian apologized to Michael after he hit him and it annoyed me that no one else knew what it was all about. Why did they let Brian apologize to Michael and then nobody ever talked about it anymore???

This chapter. I have a really bad feeling with Michael's initial reaction, which seems so nice and normal. Especially since I know how you feel about Michael. It would be really terrible for Jenny if Michael just used her to get to Brian through her. Well, I'll have to wait until Sunday... Warmest regards!

Well…next Sunday can’t come soon enough..

Author's Response:

Sorry, it will be Monday :( I am travelling this weekend and forgot the file with the story at home. Will update as soon as I am back home!

Such a bad bad bad idea….once again, it will only end in tears. Once a whiney asshole…always a whiney asshole.

Author's Response:

Yeah, it's not really a good idea :( 

Hi Again! It's great that you went through the corona infection so well!

Yes, Gilead, I had to think of that too. I never would have thought that we would go backwards in certain things. By the way, I still haven't seen season 4 and now I think I should watch it all again. It's been a year, I think... but I don't know. The main actress sometimes annoyed me, or rather I found this constantly long camera angle on her face so annoying.

As for Joan and Craig... I like both portrayals of them in fanfiction and I've read fanfictions that convincingly portrayed their "transformation" into the light :-). And in the end it's fanfictions... I also like to read mpreg...

Well, this chapter. Although it was through a terrible experience, Luke finally realizes how lucky he is with his two dads. But sometimes it's not enough to be told something (as in this case for example by Jenny), sometimes you have to experience things yourself in order to understand something or to learn something from it. so, looking forward to Sunday! All the best for you and warmest regards!

Hello again! Oh no, I hope you you are well again and got through the last week well. I now know so many who have become infected, but fortunately (perhaps also through the vaccination) they have all survived well so far and mostly without long-Covid consequences.

Well, the meeting with both Craig and Joan went as I expected. I think I've written that before... I like fanfics in which the two "see the light" and come to their senses. I know that unfortunately there are too many people in the world who still think like those two... just totally incomprehensible to me, but what am I telling you. I'm sure you follow developments in the USA. Awful. A law is being tightened or changed instead of more education and prevention being carried out and energy being put into that. But back to your story. Well written, if sad chapter. But as I wrote before, I really hope by now Luke will come to his senses and appreciate that not only did Brian manage to change his life, but that both of his fathers faced their problems and got through them together.

Hey! Yes, that's also my favorite saying of Gandalf - I wrote it down somewhere. That's why it was so present when Gus said that... I hope you had a great time at the concert, although I have to say that Ed Sheeran doesn't exactly make the kind of music I listen to.... ;- ) But I think he performed at a benefit concert for Ukraine the other day and he recorded a song together with "Bring me the horizon". So, good guy! :-)

Thanks for another chapter! Oh Luke... what's on his mind now. But well, I can kind of understand it. I would be curious too if I were him. And if everyone reacts like Craig did, then the matter will be settled quickly and he once again knows what he has in his family and that he should be happy to have them! Wamest regards!
