Always Have, Always Will, Part Two

[wren_kt7oz]

Well, only one day later than I'd hoped to be.

Blame it on the fact that the story kept writing itself. More bits wanted to be added than I'd bargained for.

Anyway, here it is.

As usual, clicking the link to the stories signifies that you are legally adult in the country in which you reside.

If you haven't read part one, that is here:

Wow! That was a whirlwind trip! is there going to be more. I think I need more explanation about the mysterious Mr. Taylor. m :)

[wren_kt7oz]

Glad you enjoyed the whirlwind. I suspect that we could well see more of this particular incarnation of Mr Taylor at some point. *g*

Fabulous Wren,Again you have captured the strength of Justin and swirled it with a little mystery power. My belief has always been that Justin would be a terrier for Brian and Loxon saw it as well,

If Brian’s face showed conflicted emotions, including fear, Justin’s simply showed a quiet but steely determination. Keith permitted himself a small smile. Unless he was gravely mistaken, the little blond would prove a very tough opponent if these women did anything foolish; and he’d surely be prepared to support Kinney in the course of action Keith was about to advise his client to take.

This shows that others can see Justin's strength if they are not blinded by his innocent good looks and infantise him. Well done mate Chris

Thanks, Chris. I am totally opposed to both infant!Justin and victim!Justin (well, unless they are handled incredibly well, anyway). To me, Justin is neither. He is a strong and self-actualised young man.

That's why he works with Brian IMO.

Glad you enjoyed this one. :)

I really enjoyed this, Wren. I liked how you dealt with the girls and I know that, now, Gus is where he should be. I liked the way that you wrote all the characters and I found them to be totally believable. Thanks for writing!

[wren_kt7oz]

Thank you. I'm not sure Gus will stay with Brian permanently, but it's good for both of them I think to spend some time together right now. Glad you liked.

Loved the end.. but what's the deal with Mr. T??? Can we expect more sequels which ay fill us is??

[wren_kt7oz]

Mr T is the same Mr T who rid the loft of Michael's ghost.

As to whether we will see more of him - I strongly suspect so. There's a little Christmas story niggling at me for a start. *g*

Oh my Wren!! I am so glad that I looked ONCE MORE on LJ before I went to bed. Though now it's close to 1am here and I should have been to bed long ago-need that beauty sleep you know...
This couldn't have been any better. Though I agree, what special powers does Justin have?? I mean the comic hasn't been written in this universe has it?? Maybe it's just the power of love...
You know I almost could have missed that you "hated" Lindsay and Melanie so much cause you did a really fine job with their characters in this. I mean, Mel actually became human again. Not so sure about Lindsay, but I never was. Maybe with time-she'll grow up.
I hope this isn't the last we hear from you. You do have Homecoming to finish don't you??
thanks for this-great job!!

[wren_kt7oz]

Thanks Lois. Glad you picked up on the subtleties of my attitude to the girls LOL.

As for Justin - same Justin who wiped the floor with Mikey's ghost, remember? And yes, Rage has been written in this universe - just not about Brian and not by Mikey. In fact, it got made into a film.

As for being the last - no chance. I still have to finish Reverb and then it's back to Homecoming, thank goodness. I need a break from all this angst. And I'm really going to need a break after doing the end of Reverb because no matter how you cut it, Justin leaves and the girls take Gus to Canada. And that is all just painful. *sigh*

Working on it however.
