I am so happy that Jensen's name was finally cleared! It seems like Chris suffered and it's good that he finally recanted, but it sucks that Brian didn't get punished at all. Wouldn't lying under oath (even if he was a child) get him some time/or at least a fine?! And even if the original defamation was 10 years ago, Brian just barely started accusing Jensen of being a pedophile a short time (weeks?) ago, along with harassment and like depraved indifference or something because he was trying to get Jensen to kill himself and even yelled it in front of witnesses on the bridge!! If Jensen doesn't want to, then Jeff and Jason could get together and press charges for him!
But I am glad that Jensen can finally move on without fear now. And that he and Jared are happy and together. Jensen could even become a teacher now if he wanted to!
Yeah, it kinda is, but being outed as a liar and failing in his attempt to 'punish' the fags really did bruise his ego, as Jensen pointed out. The way I see Brian in his arrogance and narcissism, losing face is worse to him than doing a few hours of community work, but yeah, I get that it's not much, so I'm sorry.
I found this last night and went to read Monster first then read this until 3 am. I then couldnt sleep as the story kept replaying with all its awful injustice. I know Jensen was cleared in the end but he was so badly damaged and lost so much I have just spent today feeling really emotional which is a sure sign of a brilliant story if it wont let go. You made me consider how I would react if I were in other characters shoes, even feeling sympathy with Jared's reaction at the BBQ and as a parent, Josh's girlfriend's reaction at the end which just goes to show Jensen will never be completely cleared having been smeared with an emotive issue like child abuse. You also challenged me because I have always felt that suicide is wrong but quite frankly after suffering with Jensen all last night, I think the thought of where it would all have gone next if Chris hadnt finally manned up would have been too much to cope with. See how you've got me going! Anyway you are a wonderful writer and the story is heartbreaking, insightful and you

Dude. You broke me. You know what was the first thing I did when I read '~FIN'? I took a deep fucking breath! It felt as if I hadn't gotten much oxygen in quite a while! I must've teared up at least three times! This was one of the most amazing things I've ever read. My thoughts are a complete mess and I don't even know where to begin.
Your writing is beautiful and I just adored the way the characters developped so smoothly and naturally even if they went throuhg hell. First of all, I love Jared and Jensen's relationship, how much in love they were, how devoted, how supported. It was such a real relationship, with the ups and the downs, the fights and the quite moments, the everyday life and then Lily...So, so, so CUTE

To be completely honest, this story is wholesome. It doesn't really need any more sequels or timestamps. But. My greedy nature (what brought me to fanfiction in the first place - canon is canon and it's not lacking anything, I just want more) would love to see more of this verse hehe! I feel perfectly okay with how things ended too, but if you were to write more, I'd love to read it!
Again, you're welcome, it's really my pleasure to leave long reviews, making sure the author knows how much I appreciate the story they shared :D
