So happy to see a sequel to one of my favourite stories. Justin is stars cute and fun as before. Brian is so good with him and I hope continues to be and not go off with other men. That Mickey I want to pound him into the ground so bad. I'm worried about Justin following Emmet into that room 😢.

Just what the Doctor ordered! I think everyone could use a little of Justin's sunshiney smile right about now.

I just love how Justin sees everything through such innocent eyes. That's what makes his reactions and comments so funny. Great story.

We may need your help again, Lorie, when we get to the next animal encounter. I doubt Justin will come across any skunks in downtown Pittsburgh, but you never know... lol. TAG.
Tag,
Due to construction, Bayonne and Jersey City now have skunks wandering around. Where I live now I have seen several, and this is a very (human) populated area.

I absolutely love this story. Justin is just too adorable for words and seeing a happy, cheerful Brian is so much fun. Wonderful, fantastic writing.

Justin and his smoothies. He's making life better for Brian.

Oh this is great. Love how Justin is being portrayed and "love sick" Brian is a real plus. Wonderful, amazing writing.

Hey Girls,
I'd forgotten how hilarious Barefoot Blond was. Even if Justin gets more 'wordly' I hope he keeps some of his innocence, it's funny and refreshing. Maybe he could even learn to put the weasel in his place. Great story.

Oh, I DO NOT trust Tristan, not one little bit!
How generous of Emmett to offer to explain Bears to Justin, LOL!
I am already so in love with this story!

Tell me, does Tristan try to take advantage of looking like Justin. Enjoying each chapter.

Well, I might be creating KD suicide, but I have thought about this for a couple of days...
I just wanted to tell you I won't be reading this story. Although I did stick it out with the first one, I find it highly unprofessional to make light and make fun of a mentally-challenged person. I worked with teens that were mentally challenged when my children were young, and every day I thanked God my four children weren't born with any disabilities. Granted, your story could be funny in places, but when you take the innocense of a mentally-challenged person, and attempt to make it funny... Well, the whole subject falls flat with me.
Author's Response:
I'm sorry you feel that way. I completely understand if you don't want to read the story, but that's not how I see the character in this story AT ALL! This Justin isn't mentally-challenged. He was just kept so sheltered by his mentally ill mother that he hasn't been exposed to the world (except in small portions). His innocence isn't due to any disability; Justin simply looks at the world in a different way because he's never been conditioned to see it the way normally jaded people do. In my mind, the longer Justin is out in the world, the more 'normal' his responses will become. But, in the meantime, he's a joy to be around for someone as hardened and world-weary as Brian. I'm not sure how we failed in getting this impression out to you, or why you thought we were trying to portray Justin as mentally-challenged, but that was NEVER our intent. If anything, this Justin is even more brilliant than the original. So, please, don't think our intent was to make fun of a handicapped person. None of us would ever do that. (Writing on my own behalf, but I'm sure my co-authors would agree here). TAG

I read the first one which was absolutely hilarious. I hope this one is to and hopefully brian doesn't go back to his old ways. I love the anti micheal stories
Author's Response:
We're gonna try & make this sequel just as fun as the original! JST!

See? I told you I'd be back after I read this Chapter!
I didn't realize just how much I missed our Barefoot Blond and his Just Brian! I just love his honesty and his innocent descriptions of the word around him.
But, I'm also a bit confused... wasn't Justin at Babylon in the original BB? And didn't he even venture to the backroom... wanting to call a Dr for one of the moaning men back there??
So his question to Emmett about the chains by the entrance to the backroom and this line confused me...
But this was the first time he’d be going out to Babylon.
Author's Response:
Good catch. This is why we love our readers - they keep us honest. Should have said, this was the first time he'd been to Babylon since their trip. Also, the chains were new... I'll go fix it! Hope you like the rest... TAG

Poor Justin. He doesn't know which way is up. Bad Emmett to leave Justin stranded. I can see this is going to be fun. What do you have planned to take Mikey down.
Author's Response:
Justin will be alright - he's a lot tougher than you'd think... JST.

OMG! Did you all hear that very undignified little squeal that I let out when I opened up KD and saw this!?!? I had to comment before I even started to read, LOL! (But I promise to come back and leave another one after I do!)
Author's Response:
We heard that squee coming through the computer. Happy Reading! J.S.T.
