What an awesome series! I love Emmett! The fact that he had Brian's trust was so moving. This was an awesome progression to the B/J relationship. It seemed so in character for all of them.
i hated to see it end. But Em knew it was time, just proved how wise his character really is.
thank you for this wonderful series!
Author's Response:
Thank you and you are so verrrry right.
Brian Kinney had a terrible childhood and a difficult, lonely life as an adult. Before the age of thirty he's already become so jaded that he doesn't believe in love or even in true happiness. After years of dealing with a dysfunctional family and an uncaring world, it seems like he's just about ready to give up completely. But, the guardian spirit that's been watching over him since Brian was a baby decides to save him, teaching him that true love does exist and that it can even transcend the laws of space and time.

All I can say is WOW! I have never cried and ached for our boys so much...from the prologue til the last sentences.
I can totally understand how writing this was difficult. Angst and plot twists in abundance. You really have given Brian a back story that explains so much of his personality, his rules, his faults, his drive...most of all you gave us insight into his heart. Seeing what motivated the making of Brian"Fucking" Kinney was amazing. The show gave us just enough to lead us in certain directions where Brian as a character is concerned. You, however, gave us so much more.
Justin as a guiding spirit was a wonderful storyline. At times I ached for all he missed out on by his life being cut short. But to see the Taylor family from a different perspective was genius.
Thank you for this wonderful gift of a story. I am left with a couple of questions in your Kindred universe...Does Justin ever figure out he is his own Uncle Justin now/and Jesse was the placeholder he felt like? How does Brian explain to the Taylors (especially Winnie) why he's suddenly with Jesse?
Great writing as always, can't wait to see what's next for you!
Author's Response:
Thank you! This was certainly an emotional one, right? I'm glad you saw what I was going for - filling in Brian's backstory as best as I could to depict how he got to be the character we saw at the start of the series. I've always felt like he had a much harder childhood than was even hinted at in the show. There's no other way to explain his twisted, complex personality. I hope that my explanation fills in those missing years and explains things more in depth. I added Justin in here, in his spirit guise, because, even though I'm sure Brian's childhood was a horror, he couldn't have come out nearly as whole as he was if he didn't have some moderating force in his life. I posit that it was Justin in this fic. Who knows, right? Glad you liked the story.
As for your remaining questions: I DON'T think that the Justin in the series ever knows about his own past with Brian. He doesn't have those memories. They died with Jesse. But Brian remembers, and that, in part, colors a lot of his subsequent actions. Like, why Brian, who was a perpetualy loner, was instantly attracted to Justin. Why Brian was protective of Justin from day one. Also, why he was ambivalent about Justin's place in his life and always wanted to give Justin the chance to choose someone else other than him, because he would feel that he was somehow influencing the boy who didn't remember their past with his own desires. Of course this is all just my own headcanon, but I think it fits. As for Winnie . . . well, the Brian in the series actively avoids any contact with Justin's family after they meet, so maybe he just cut himself off from Winnie too and tried his best not to interact with them so that his prior link to Justin/Jesse wasn't obvious. That's what I see in my mind at least.
Hope this answers some of your questions.
Now off to my big Summer Collaboration story and a nice, fluffy, angst-free family fic with Lorie!

All I can say is...Fucking Brilliant!
This storyline is totally believable and kept in character (not easy to do with a 10 year future timeline). I bow down to a truly amazing writer. Your insight into their minds is delightful. (Plus I’m not a Mikey fan, seeing him as the whiny self centered character he really is always makes me smile!)
Off to read the sequel! Thank you for hours of wonderful and nail biting reading enjoyment!
Author's Response:
Awww! Thank you so much for reading this labor of love! I really hope that you enjoy the sequel. Keep in mind that the first 7 chapters of it are like a gap-filler between chapters 9 and 10 of this work. It was a little strange trying to tie in the two since I was actually writing them at the same time. Hopefully, I made it all work and you will have many hours of enjoyment!
Happy Reading and HUGS!

This was definitely a roller coaster ride for my emotions. My heart broke for my favorite blonde boy. It was rewarding to see him overcome so much as become stronger than any other character.
Great writing and sensitivity to a difficult story line. The angst kept me on the edge of my seat. This was well worth the wait!
Even though they have their ups and downs, Brian and Justin always find their way back to each other. They are ready to take on the world! -mamaduck
Sequel to Time's Up Volume I: It's Only Time
After ten years, Brian and Justin are still meeting in secret. Now one is ready to make things permanent while the other...Hmm- not so much. It will ultimately come down to hard choices, sacrifices and what's more important: everlasting love or freedom? And how will secret and not-so-secret enemies affect their decision?

Brilliant work from a talented and gifted writer. Thank you for letting us into the world you lovingly created.
Author's Response:
Thanks so Much, Wendy! I'm so happy that you enjoyed this the "Time's Up" series. It was definitely a labor of love. I still miss it! Those two stories were my very first foray into writing QAF fanfic and will always hold a special place in my heart.
Happy Reading and HUGS,

I am a sucker for "Brian in Peril" stories and this is one of the best I've read. The author does a great job dissecting Brian's complex mind. Phenomenal writing, interesting premise, and a satisfying ending. Can't ask for much more! -charming1
After Justin leaves for New York, the remaining members of the Liberty Avenue family go about their everyday lives, never suspecting that something serious is happening to Brian. When the realization hits, they find that everyone's lives are irrevocably altered.

Keep up the good work!
I chose this story as it is a "what if" that continues the story of Brian and Justin after Season 5. Starlight is an author that pulls you into a story by the third paragraph and takes you on a wild ride. There's angst, humor and drama that has you cheering and yelling in disgust in the same chapter. She has this writing style that keeps you wanting more every chapter she writes - mamaduck
Brian and Justin decide it's time to have kids.

I loved meeting Jake! I hope you write more about him in the future. It would be nice to see his hero worship of Justin continue. And the fact he connects with Brian through fashion is awesome. Maybe he could come to Pittsburgh for a special art program at PIFA? Just throwing it out there!
Matt also gave great insight into Brian. He seemed how what I always wanted Michael to be, but never got through the show. Even strait he was a better friend to Brian than any other character.
Thanks for this story. I liked seeing a different side of Brian and Justin as they prepared for the separation.
Great original characters added in with established characters was done extremely well and believable! Keep up the good work!
In an age where extreme Capitalism and the pursuit of the Almighty Buck supersedes all ethics and morality, Brian Kinney purchases the contract of a beautiful, young, Personal Companion that he wants to rescue from the harsh fate life has dictated for him. Variation on the Slave!Justin storyline.

I watched people sit stunned today at my job. It was as if time was standing still for them in their disbelief and fear.
Over the weekend I saw Randy in Cabaret, it gave me chills. The political messages that were brought up are relevant today as they were in the pre-nazi Germany. As he sung songs about not caring much and if you could see her...my mind began to replace the word Jew with Muslim, Hispanic and Queer (LGBTQ). The apathetic characters in the play wanted to be left alone or said it will pass...it didn't pass and no one in Germany was left unaffected (Jew or not).
Scary and uncertain times are upon us.
Thank you for a positive message. Stand together and rise from the ashes. Maybe this will band some unlikely allies together?!
Author's Response:
Cabaret was the very first play I ever saw, way back in college. I was never the same. What frightens me is the short-term memory we humans seem to rely upon to make our very important decisions. And yes, many of us are stunned.
And I'm going to see Randy in Cabaret in January, health permitting. Keep your fingers crossed.
Michael and Lindsay are as usual up to no good, and end up in therapy. Somehow so do the rest of the Gang.
