What can I say? You know I defend Brian all the time. I analyze him; I excuse him; I explain him. And most of the time I'm cheering for the two to get together. But, sometimes, I wonder if they ever will. They're like the Intercontinental Railroad...laying their tracks down from the east and west to meet somewhere in the middle... and when they finally meet...the tracks are off-set by 1-foot...and a train cannot pass.
They're just "off" by a little bit, but that screws up the whole enterprise. Do Brian and Justin "meet" in the middle? Do they come together to make a "whole?" Ask me on a good day, and I'd say "Yes." Ask me on a bad day, and I'd say "No." I just write this crap,Lady.

First of all briefly about your last answer. Thank's for saying this things about my reviews! Sometimes I feel rather uncomfortable that I write so much sometimes, but when a story speaks to me so much and triggers so many feelings and thoughts in me.... So, no, I can't say anything negative so far ;-) as I already told you, I won't read a few stories because it's just not for me, but that's not a negative thing.
This story: So beautiful what you say about love being rather a verb then a noun and the ability to love enough to let someone go, I totally agree. I just don't agree with Brian on the point that Justin confused thankfulness with love and that he wasn't ready to receive Brian's message already. I would rather agree with Brian that he failed to transmit the message. Justin wanted too much, Brian gave too little. For a short while they had this balance in S2, but then they moved in different directions. But I wrote this before, in my opinion Ethan had to happen. Oh, and like so often before - I love your end. Even if a story is so sad or depressing or whatever, there's always hope or a little bit of something positive at the end - love it! Thanks for sharing!
Author's Response:
Keep up the reviews! So far, you're batting 1000 with your commentary. And your analysis...spot-on. Don't ever hesitate to comment. I'm a big-boy...I can take a little criticism. I would still challenge you to read stories that are outside of your boundaries. It can't hurt; words are not bricks. Ideas are neither right or wrong. Creativity in any form can be enjoyable. Stretch your boundaries. ( I feel like I'm standing on a soapbox, shouting at you.). Just try it. If it helps you to read one of my stories, I'll hold your hand...via Internet.
