Bio:
Sequel to "Filled Silence" set in the Post-Stockwell Era, Brian and Justin makes some decisions that will redefine their definition of the word 'relationship'. Although inspired by the concepts within "The Experiment" by Wren and "The Dare" by Edom, it's my take on what should have happened in the series. ENJOY!!!
To the Wonderful and Talented Lorie Austin, Thanks for being my beta, but most of all, my friend. I couldn't do what I do without you.

Date: Jun 28, 2018 Title: Chapter 19: YOU HAVE THE ATTENTION...NOW WHAT Part 2
That was epic! Bravo! I totally felt Justin & Brian's pain though...oh my God...hopefully the idiot squad will heed their words but probably not. I thought Ben & Hunter were going to get their justice too at this meeting or is that another chapter?
Date: Jun 30, 2018 Title: Chapter 20: IT AIN'T NO GAME. IT'S A LOVE THING (Splatterday continues)
THIS is what I thought would have happened first...glad it happened now but still...Chelle, I totally agree with your closing notes and Brian's character. I much prefer your way than what the writers did to the character of Brian in Season 5! All that back & forth business was bullshit IMO. Well done babe!
Date: Jul 04, 2018 Title: Chapter 22: STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES BUT DOES THAT APPLY TO A SORRY ASS, TOO?
Of course the imbecile & the cunt paid Ian...I'm not surprised. I absolutely love Justin's calm sense of courage & justice. I can't believe shit for brains is still fighting this...he's gonna end up in a cell too!

Hey Shine! As you know I always love writing a strong Justin. Michael is definitely in for several rude awakenings dealing with him.
Happy Reading and HUGS,

Well that was wicked healthy! I loved it! Way to go Vic! I love it when Alex pops in during our favorite fics! You go man, get Deb healthy and open her eyes!
Date: Jul 06, 2018 Title: Chapter 24: BRACING FOR IMPACT Part 2
I am so glad that this will work out for Deb, truly! I always thought that she was allowing herself to be controlled by shit for brains. One day at a time, step by step...she will better herself.
Honestly, I wish there were people like Alex & Stephen in my own life...
Date: Jul 07, 2018 Title: Chapter 25: A VISIT TO MOTHER'S and BECOMING KINNETIK
Wow! That's a nice little development! I hope Kinnetik can handle it but I'm sure they can. Ted & Dale sound...fun! lol And Michael, well, what else is new...he's a fucking idiot!
Date: Jul 09, 2018 Title: Chapter 27: WHERE'S A GOOD MALLET WHEN YOU NEED ONE?!
Okay first of all...ew ew ew sex bewtween Michael & Lance...EW!!! But thanks for the warning...yuck! Question: Can someone's asshole really be loose? IDK but could it really be? Seriously, I have no idea. And secondly, is he for real?? Calling Child Protective Services on them? Yes they do have to investigate every case that's reported but this has GOT to fall back on shit for brains right? He's just diggin himself in deeper right? What a total dick....can't wait til he goes to jail!
Author's Response:
Good morning Shine! Believe me the specter of that scene reminded me of the 'Nightmare on Elm Street' series, where the original Fred Krueger aka the fabulously talented Robert England, came up with some funny lines even while he was scaring the hell out of you. Sleep? Yeah right! Couldn't sleep without someone watching over me for ten days after I saw the 1st one...LOL Consequently, it was a similar experience being tormented with that scene until I just had to write it. And here it is, the day after, and I'm still wishing for Morpheus' little blue pill! LOL
As for your question, let me put on my medical hat for a moment. YES, an anus, just like a vagina, can be termed as 'loose' for a number of reasons, primarily due to stretching. Think in terms of a rubber band. What happens when you continue to constantly stretch it out? Eventually, it begins to lose its natural elasticity, and just becomes loose. Muscles, especially those which serve as both an organ and a muscle (the vag and anus are such organs), work in a similar manner. It's why pelvic floor muscle exercises, or Kegels, are so very important. Not only do they help with continence issues and the like, but they also help you and your partner to attain and maintain pleasure during intercourse.
Okay, now putting away Dr. Nik M.D. and pulling 'Chelle the traumatized author' back out of hiding, LOL Michael is somewhere laughing like a hyena in heat right now, but trust me, he won't be for long. All I will say is that he'd better hope the police figure out it's him before Brian does. Michael can do pretty much whatever he wants to Brian (and he has), but go after his child? Oh no, Sir Asshole, I think NOT!
Stay Tuned Darling!
HAPPY READING and HUGS,

Date: Jul 10, 2018 Title: Chapter 28: PRISON ORANGE IS NOT YOUR COLOR, BUT
Justin is the best! Like a boss Sunshine! Woohoo! Get friggin Mikey outta there! Beyond a douchbag! Justin totally saved Brian from going to jail for murder 1 that's for sure! Omg this just keeps getting better & better!
Date: Jul 11, 2018 Title: Chapter 29: PREEMPTIVE STRIKES
Chelle, you are amazing! Can I just tell you how much I love your writing! Jesus, your talent & imagination knows no bounds! You always come up with such great storytelling!
Claire & Caig? Omg not only double ew but holy shit...no one would have ever guessed something as twisted as that lol Yay their all going down!
Date: Jul 12, 2018 Title: Chapter 30: BUILDING BLOCKS
Ahhh the tangeled web they weave. Lance is fucked too...hope thy put shit for brains away for good. I'm sure we're going to find out plenty more about what Michael has been doing to Brian for years.
Date: Jul 13, 2018 Title: Chapter 31: THROWING BRICKS and NEW WRENCHES
Ew ew ew you could have warned us about the Claire/Craig sex details, gross! Glad that Lori chick always had her eyes wide open.
Really happy with Mel's friendship with our boys too.
Date: Jul 15, 2018 Title: Chapter 32: UNDER RECONSTRUCTION
Just keeps getting better all the time!
Date: Jul 17, 2018 Title: Chapter 33: SURFACING ENEMIES

Hey Shine! Honey, I nearly fell off my own seat writing THAT!
Stay tuned, Darling!
HAPPY READING and HUGS!

Date: Jul 21, 2018 Title: Chapter 35: NE IMPERARET SANITATEM REDUCAMUS (Let Sanity Reign)
I don't care how talented they (Eric & Christian) are, having them there at Kinnetik, I believe, won't be good karma at all. There has got to be people out there with the same qualifications. And just knowing about Hobb's father & what he did to his own son?! Omg! Where is he now & can 'someone' have him killed please?! Horrifying!
And Mel! Holy shit girl, you KNOW these two, did you ever hear of knocking before entering a room? I would have been pissed at her, Christ! Live & learn I guess.
Hey Shine! I understand your issues with hiring Eric and Christian, but there is a method to Justin's seeming madness. On one hand, hiring them prevents any possible civil lawsuits about discrimination even if they are falsified (again, think Kip Thomas). On the flipside of that theory is the adage "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer". It's going to be interesting to discover what Eric, who is the wild card, really is. As for Mel, it was really a comedy of errors kind of thing. Although she's annoyed, Brian's remarks to her tempers that a bit. Brian as always is an insolent imp, and takes great joy in goading her. The Brian/Mel dynamic just keeps growing and changing in ways I've never imagined. And it's a great thing since they are both going to rely on it. Stay Tuned Darling! HAPPY READING and HUGS, ~Nichelle

Oh Jesus, what the hell does Joan want? What a way to ruin their morning huh?
What a hot hot hot night on the town!
Date: Jul 26, 2018 Title: Chapter 37: CHANGING FACES Part 2
Omg tears...that was awesome! And 'Uncle Tom' & Blake are related! Perfect.
Ya know my friend, that explanation of Justin's mannerisms and character: this is YOUR story and you seem to be worried about your readers feelings on any variation of said character(s). I say, there's no reason to explain your writings or the way YOU see the characters. I don't want or mean to sound bitchy in any way honey, I've just had it with people criticizing writers works of art. In my humble opinion, it's better to not say anything at all than to be rude or cruel to others in regards to the way they want a story or characters to move ahead or be different in their fanfics.
Sorry for my little rant babe, I love you & all you write!
Date: Jul 30, 2018 Title: Chapter 40: PRECINCT BLUES Part 2: GATHERING EVIDENCE
Wow, this is all truly very interesting! I love law stuff! Come on Darius, bring it all out into the open!
Date: Aug 12, 2018 Title: Chapter 42: WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, LIES DO TELL
First of all, I'm so glad & happy to see that Bubba has shit for brans under control in prison. Yes Michael, you ARE that dumb! Secondly, nice to see Jennifer being so open & honest with the kids, sometimes adults want to protect children from the truth in their own lives so much, that they're not upfront with them. Where will the boys go? And lastly, yes, take those morons to jail Carl!!!
Date: Aug 21, 2018 Title: Chapter 43: PRECINCT BLUES Part 3: EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED
Holy shit! Sweet Jesus! Wow, wow, wow....I am shocked. So Lance had a fake ID stating he was Michael, so he'd inherit Brian's money?? Wow!
Date: Aug 22, 2018 Title: Chapter 44: THE TIES THAT BIND...AND THE ONES THAT DON'T
Omg is Ian as delusional as Michael?? There's medication for that dude! Is Troy Perkins, Ted's Troy from Pride? How many more people that work at Kinnetik have it in for our boys?
Date: Sep 03, 2018 Title: Chapter 46: A MEETING OF THE WHINE
Okay, I'm glad Joan got Claire to admit those things, yay but...omg I cannot for the life of me imagine Mrs. Joan Kinney flirting and actually going on a date. Sorry, I guess I'm gonna have to work on that! lol
Date: Sep 04, 2018 Title: Chapter 47: REVELATIONS OF THE PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE
This was fabulous! I would have loved to see Jennifer Taylor go after Joan Kinney like that on the show! Wow! So fun!
Protective Brian....of his mother? That's different yet very interesting. lol
Love Ted's POV
Date: Sep 05, 2018 Title: Chapter 48: CLASH OF THE WASP Part 1: YOU READY?
Ahhhhhhh it must be nice to have money. Brian & Justin really do take care of their family & friends. Where can I get a B/J duo in my life? I need some of that! Go get 'em Mel!
Date: Sep 07, 2018 Title: Chapter 50: CLASH OF THE WASP Part 3: A HOLE IN ONE or SHOULD THAT BE AN ACE IN THE HOLE? LINDSAY CAN'T DECIDE!
Go Mel! Show Lindsay what she's missing and will be missing for a very long time. lol Good for Justin, all up in Lindsay's face with the truth, all sassy as can be! Great chapter!
Date: Sep 11, 2018 Title: Chapter 51: CUTTING THROUGH THE MEAT, TO GET TO THE BONE OF CONTENTION?
Wow! Is there really such a thing as the Wasp nest? I have no idea. I didn't grow up in the country club way but I did experience life as a Catholic Italian woman and my family & those like us had our own set of rules and traditions shall I say lol The Wasp nest just seems so outrageous, I'm just wondering if there's any truth to it. Haha another great chapter Nichelle!
