We're chuffed that you like our unique language blend. Karynn was corrupted by living in London for three years, and now Brynn is doing her best to futher that corruption. :D

Okay, we'll confess that although we know some of the Latin phrases, we have to look some of them up to find just the right ones.

Isn't Frau Rose great? She's modeled on one of Karynn's high school teachers.

We're enjoying the developing friendship between Carl and Justin. Another excellent role model for our favorite blond.

Carl and Wen are excellent investigators, so they will solve the mystery of the burglary . . . probably. *evil authors cackling away*

*cough* We've also been known to want to box Michael upside the head.

Thans for another amazing review, Phyllis! More soon.

I (Karynn) can tell from all the gifs you've posted on FB that you just... melted, Navneet. Brynn and I are wishing you a speedy recovery - espespecially Brynn, since she masterminded that scene. :D

Justin carries off that lopsided racoon look really well, don't you think? I need to search out an appropriate pic, lol.

Brian does have a proven track record of pretending he's not jealous, but we're onto him.

More soon. Thanks for reviewing!

~ KaBrynn

Brynn capped that chapter with the perfect scene, didn't she? I (Karynn) had to fan myself while she was writing it. It does seem that Brian has quite the treasure trove of memories to call on...

Brian's still being a pill about seeing Justin's side of things, but he may very slowly be coming around. He's tired of the readers bitching at him - says he gets to queen out for awhile longer, lol.

We're working steadily on the next chapter. Stay tuned.

Thanks so much for reviewing, Glo!

~ KaBrynn

Our first review on the new chapter! Thank you, Claire. *doing a happy dance*

It's such a rare thing, an American working with a Brit, right?

That last scene is all to Brynn's credit. I (Karynn) keep telling her she should consider a career change...

Touching, holding... and more. Yum, we're all for that. :)

Thanks for reviewing, TAG! In response (at last) to your questions:

1) Mugshots are the best bet for identifying the burglar(s), even if it's a long shot. At this point in the story, we don't know how many descriptions Detectives Horvath and Wen have gathered from witnesses; descriptions would probably be vague and contradictory, so the detectives wouldn't ask Brian if he recognizes the robbers based on those. Also, a police sketch of the burglar(s) likely wouldn't be created for an isolated robbery - unless a witness, who felt they could provide a clear description, volunteered to go to the police station to work with a police artist.

The best way to proceed for now is to find one of the stolen items and investigate from that end.

2) We diverged as of 1x10, and Saperstein isn't part of canon until the second season. The only similarity between Smythe and Sap is the first letter of their last name, lol; we hope to keep the Sap cretin out of our story entirely.

We're working on the next chapter now! :)

~ KaBrynn

We're so glad you're enjoying the way the story is developing, Navneet. We certainly appreciate your reviews! :D

We don't want to give too much away, but we will say 'expect the unexpected'. *evil authors cackling away*

~Brynn & Karynn

Chirs is such a bully - undoubtedly, in part, because he's denying his own sexuality - although that's no excuse for his behavior. We keep telling Justin to be cautious, and he seems to be listening...

Thanks for again being the first to review a chapter, Claire. :)

~Karynn & Brynn

High school can be plenty helllish without what Justin is enduring. Our blond is a fighter, though - can't imagine him giving in. We'll have to see who he might turn to for assistance. He does have lots of good people backing him, particularly his surrogate parents. :)

Yay! We got you with one of our surprise twists. Glad you think Brian colluding with Dr. Dave is believable.

Thanks for reviewing, Claire. As always, we're already working on the next installment.

~Brynn & Karynn

Thanks for another wonderful review, Navneet! You're certainly spot on about that plonker Dixon.

Justin's a fighter; I don't think it's in him to give up. Plus, his surrogate parents are one hundred percent behind him. He couldn't ask for better people than Deb and Vic to have his back. :)

We've caught your interest with another of our twists, I see. Brian doesn't necessarily think Dr. Dave is such a bad guy this time around. We'll have to see if that changes.

As usual, we're already working on the next chapter.

~Brynn & Karynn

If anyone can catch the burglars, it's detectives Horvath and Wen. That female detective certainly intimidated the heck out of Brian. 

Be patient with our favorite brunet. He's starting to come around... we think. Considering it has only been nine days, including the day of the robbery, since our story started, he's making remarkable progress.

Thanks for reviewing, Phyllis!

~KaBrynn

Thanks for another wonderful review, Navneet. We're made up by all your comments. :)

Brian asks that you take his childhood into consideration - his material possessions are an indicator of how far he's come, and that he's left Jack and Joan behind. We haven't given up hope that he'll figure out just what essential item is missing, given enough time. Including the day of the burglary, it has been only nine days since our story began.

We're working on chapter twelve now.

~Brynn & Karynn

Wicked grins that we confused you... although we're sure that didn't last long, Navneet. Thanks for going back and reviewing chapters 9 and 10. We greatly appreciate it. :)

Emmett and Brian together are such a hoot - as are Emmett and Justin.

We're glad you enjoyed this chapter!
