Yay! We kept you laughing. :D

Brian is torn between rebuffing Justin and putting his hands all over the teen. We should pity the stud... :D

If reading about the food is making you hungry, think what writing about did to Karynn. :D It's amazing she didn't gain ten pounds.

That's an interesting observation about Mikey's intelligence... what little he had to start with, Bad!Karynn mutters.

Thanks for review number two on this chapter, Navneet. :)

Mel is one incredible, kickass attorney. Brian is darned lucky she's on his side. They'll undoubtedly return to their usual bickering soon, lol.

Brynn is taking a bow for Brian's observation that he and Justin are acting like a divorced couple. :D

We know all you cheeky readers want Brian and Justin back togehter - right now, dammit! :D We're trying to nudge them in that direction, and they may be starting to listen. Keep in mind that the story is 'slow burn' and that less than three weeks have elapsed since the burglary.

Carl and Wen are investigating the robbery, but an investigation is usually painstaking. It takes time to unearth and follow up on all possible leads.

Thank you for leaving another review, Marie-france. We've started working on the next chapter - Thanksgiving has arrived. :)

~ KaBrynn

We wanted to create something for our faithful readers, hence the FanDoc. :) We've seen a couple of anon critters in the doc, so at least it's being accessed. Even if it doesn't generate discussion, it's something for the readers to enjoy.

We'll whisper your suggestion in Harley's ear and see what happens... :D

Thanks for reviewing, TAG!

~ KaBrynn

Wow! That's quite the glowing review, Elaine. We're blushing at having our story receive so much praise. :)

We're made up that you're enjoying Justin's relationship with Deb and Vic. They make wonderful surrogate parents for our favourite blond.

Jennifer's blowing it right now, but we're not ready to give up on her. We're hoping she'll come to her senses soon, although she has, sadly, done irreparable damage to her bond with her son. That's an intersting point about what she's teaching Molly, although she is at least encouraging Justin to see his sister.

You're right. Harley's probably going to cause no end of embarrassment for Justin, but the teen will learn to take it in stride - probably. :D Who knows? There may be quite a gabfest between Gus and the budgie.

It still hasn't been that long, not yet three weeks, since the burglars cleaned out Brian's loft, so we're cutting the stud some slack. Even if he's not ready to admit it, he clearly misses Justin. We'll have to see what details emerge from the investigation into the robbery and how that might influence matters.

Thanks so much for all the wonderful comments, Elaine. :)

We've just started working on the next chapter and will post a teaser for the next chapter in the FanDoc as soon as possible.

~ KaBrynn

What a perfect comment - that Justin is patient with both Kinney boys. :D

Brian's lucky he has that kickass, bulldyke lawyer on his side. Melanie was rather 'sweet' to him after that meeting, lol. They'll undoubtedly return to their friendly bickering soon enough.

Thanks for taking the time to leave another comment, Claire. :)

~ KaBrynn

C'mon, admit you liked it so much because we featured The Mighty Intruder. You've all but confessed that anyway. :D

We're chuffed you enjoyed the suggestions for Justin's new toy; we included as many as we could.

We must be doing something right if we have TAG's stamp of approval for the final scene. :D :D

Thanks for reviewing! We're almost ready to post chapter 21.

~ KaBrynn

We're glad you enjoyed the funny moments between Justin, Harley, and Vic

We haven't given up on Jen but, sadly, she probably has damaged the mother-son bond between herself and Justin too much for it to return to what it once was.

You're right - Ryder probably doesn't stand a chance against Brian, especially with Melanie, Cynthia, and Ted backing him up. :D You liked the BBB, huh? - definitely far outclassed by BOB. :D

Keep up the great work as our PR person, please! Those gifs you post keep us entertained and motivated. :)

~ KaBrynn

Bob really is keeping Justin happy. :D Vic, too. :D

Harley is our most popular original character. He's such a hoot. :D

We haven't given up on Jennifer just yet, but she'll never have the same mother-son relationship with Justin, which is sad for her.

The Ted-Brian dynamic was one of my favourite aspects of season 5. It's fun to explore it happening at an earlier stage.

We figure every fic needs more of Cynthia, especially her interactions with Brian.

Why am I not surprised that you want another Brian-Justin scene? We'll see what we can come up with, although it may not be what you expect. :D

Thanks for reviewing, Glo. We're chuffed by your comments. :)

~ KaBrynn

We're chuffed that you've discovered Tricky Business, Marie-france. :) We must've kept you busy reading for a least a few hours. :)

We agree - Deb and Vic make the perfect surrogate parents for Justin. We can't imagine Justin without his bestie. He and Daph love to tease each other, but they also always have each other's backs.

Brian wants us to tell you he doesn't do jealousy - you have our permission to laugh yourself silly over that outrageous claim. He is jealous as he watches Justin dance, but he's not about to admit it, so he's sticking with being miffed at the teen for not taking his advice about the go-go gig. He is genuinely annoyed with Justin for that, as well as worried about what might happen.

Our readers are very likely to hear more about BOB. :D Did your screen fog over when you read that final scene?

Your English is great, and we're made up by long comments. :)

We're working on the next chapter now.

~ KaBrynn

We've never had such an enthusiastic review as yours, Navneet! :D We're completely made up that we entertained you so thoroughly. :D

Keep patting yourself on the back, lol. You should be proud for coming up with the perfect name for Justin's new toy. We're wondering how long it will take our favourite blond to start referring to it by that name.

LMAO! at all the trials and tribulations you endured to read this chapter. If your mother only knew... :D

~ KaBrynn

We're chuffed you enjoyed the scenes with Daphne and Harley. Justin had so much fun teasing Daph, until his friend turned the tables on him, with a little help from Deb and Vic. :D

Brian's definitely asking the right people to join him as he contemplates opening his own agency, we agree.

Navneet, Glo, TAG, and Tuneesha are taking their bows, thanking you for recognizing all the effort they put into choosing the right names for Justin's new toy. :D

We had fun crafting that last scene together - happy we could wow you with it. The boys are whispering more of their escapades into our ears...

Thanks for being one of our most faithful reviewers, Phyllis. :)

~ KaBrynn

We're made up that you enjoyed the names for Justin's toy and the way we wove them into the chapter. TAG and Navneet are taking their bows for suggesting The Mighty Intruder and BOB.

Justin had a lot of fun embarrassing Daphne at the sex store, although she more than got even at the dinner with Vic and Deb. At least our intrepid teen knew what to expect. :D

Fortunately, the boys have lots of fantasies to fuel their imagination... :D Plus, they've both informed us that they're dreaming up some new scenarios for each other.

We had fun writing Justin's memory together... One thing we can promise is more hot scenes to come.

Thanks for being the first to review this chapter, Claire!

~ KaBrynn

You have no idea how made up I am about your review! I agree, the first part was very lighthearted and Karynn did a marvellous job with the banter. As for the second half of the chapter, I think there's no doubt Brian was extremely irresponsible and was incredibly jammy to have made it out unhurt. He is definitely determined to keep the whole situation to himself - whether he manages that is yet to be seen.

A big thank you for reading and reviewing :)

KaBrynn
