Food and hot moments: these guys are really a match!
Gus is funny, asking if the dog needs cream on his pink bits.
Michael is nauseating.

*Handing you one of my barf bags*
Drat! It's the last one. But don't worry I've got them on backorder already.
I love the way Gus cares out his doggie. My Jack Russell Terrier has had sunburn a couple of times. So yes, my dogs pink bits get sunblock applied when outside in summer.

Hiya,
Yep the good guys are winning big!
And the bad guys? Like we say in our neck of the woods: More stupid than the back end of a pig. Completely clueless.

Geez and I thought what Cersi (Game of Thrones for anyone who doesn't know) went through was humiliating?
That Was Freaking Hilarious!!!!!!!!
Did someone record that for everyone else to watch later?
Deb still believes that her failure as a mother and surrogate mother is Brian's fault, must be nice in Land of Denial but the truth is coming out and no one is letting her forget how she treated them when they dared to stand up to her or didn't bend to her will.
Would love to see Joan come up against Justin and then get the same treatment from The Avenue.
Or better yet would love for Brian to stand up in Joan's church and tell everyone about growing up in the Kinney Household.
Or how about every liquor store refuses to sell to Joan and she has to go to a bar and its a lesbian bar? <evil grin>
Love the way Brian apologizes that was so cute, sweet and Ridiculously Romantic ;)
Author's Response:
Hiya,
Oooh another Game of Thrones fan!! Love that show.
And once again some amazing idea's you come up with. I, personally, would love to see Joan get the same treatment D&M had.
I hope you will keep reading and reviewing. It's always fun to see one of your reviews.

Hi there you lovelies, (channeling Emmett here a bit…)
well, there seems to be a theme here: "Debbie and Michael Novotny - disgusting inside and out!" … sounds like a nice subtitle for their life.
It was really hard to believe that Deb can be such a false snake, but on the other side she lied to her son his whole life why should she be better to anyone else? She proofs to me that the diagnosis I dupted on Mikey fits her just as well if not better – because ultimately mental illnesses are often hereditary!
I simply cannot comprehend how this woman ticks. She butchered up her sons upbringing on top of his existing inborn character deficits and the only regret she is showing has fu** all to do with the matter that she catered to even the littlest whims of an dimwitted, obsessive and extremely lazy ass.
The only infinitely small spark of remorse is not for the things she or her son have done but for the fact that they weren't successful in their pursuit of the sweet life of idleness and absolutist rule over Liberty Avenue. But now the alleged subjects of 'Queen Debora Jane, The Insane' and her useless Crown prince 'Michael, The Megalomaniac' were rehearsing the uprising. And the Novotnys should really be cautious, history is full of royals that were eradicate – Cesar, Nero, Louis XVI. & Marie-Antoinette, Romanovs and so on…
Anyway, let not slide into a ranting of epic proportions, that’s something really no one would like to life thru…
But let me get back to the chapters:
31:
- wow, even if Brian doesn't see it yet, but there is a whole new support network relentlessly working around him. Not only the usual suspects of Justin, Emmett, Ted, Cynthia, Carl and Vic but a whole bunch of new Faces… and yes, he needs them without question. And I really like Mami and the gaggle as much as I hate how insecure Brian is when it comes to his feelings and his relationship with Justin.
- Lindsay definitely has a Problem. Pregnant without father, house, job and real money… a bit not good.
- Why in God's name doesn't Brian want a restrain order? Ok, with the upcoming party this may proof a little difficult.
32:
- well well, Em is buzzing with resentment – rightly so. You only cross our real Queen of Liberty once! And cross he is … and I'm enjoy his devious evil mind at work. *hehehe*
- Vic gets a rough awakening. I can imagine that it is hard to realize that your next of kin can be this gruesome to someone he thinks of as a son. And yeah! He makes the right choice! Waaay healthier than staying connected to the leeches.
- Debbie and especially Michael are so full of their own shit that they didn't even see that there's a storm cloud brewing, but that’s only better for us readers! Novotny Smack down Part 1 was fun, but I really hob there will be a final one and they didn't stand back up… yes, I'm evil and yes, I hate them – fact of live… but I love, love, love Jen & Craig, the arrest and the 'Two Dads' moniker!
33:
- Cynthia!! I so adore this girl! She has such a steel core when it comes to protecting Brian. Try to fuck with him and you are Sushi… or Shashlik?... well, really small little pieces in any way. Lioness and Cub doesn't cut it, she's way more dangerous than any kitty… and Michael could feel it – if only it would penetrate his brain, but why should it? Michael isn't really accustomed to being penetrated by anything…
- And did I mention that I love Emmett?
- The Novotnys are so disgusting in their unjustified feelings of entitlement and legitimacy. There seems to be no one who can move their opinion – not Sergeant Phipps, not Emmett, not Vic and sadly not scary Cyn.
- Nonna is a light in all the darkness, an outside view, who can provide Brian with some advice born of long life-experience (and dealing with the likes of Lotti…) and Justin is simply a delight in his steadfastly staying at Brian's side and his firm believe in the character strength of his partner
34:
- Oh yes, the Queen begins to feel the actual revulsion of the avenue. Vic and the boys from the clubs are great in their disposal of everything Novotny… and even then she plots away with her hideous little mongrel by her side. Vic's taping was a smart move, the more evidence the better. The restraining orders and the Army guy are the icing. Has Deb to revert back to Grassi? And is Michael going to go by Devore? I can't imagine that Vic would be terribly pleased if those two would share a name with him again.
- Mami isn't terribly pleased either and Precious is already fuck of, but how do they say? Keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer. And yes, the new Casa Novotny and the behavior of its inhabitants plays decidedly in the plans of the Anti-Novotny fraction.
- Gus is sweat! And really good for Brian.
- Lindsay, well, she defies every explanations… this woman is 'dummdreist' (sometimes I really love our kombi-words in German: it means something like impudent, shameless, annoyingly obtuse altogether) and plain stupid! An Orgy? And without condoms as is seems? Who in his right mind does such a thing?? I laughed as I read that Andrew can't be the father… but may I say this: this baby is so doomed! I feel so sorry for him/her.
35:
- The Condom-Pitch was hilarious! And Brian's attempt an romance is exactly that: ridicules romantic and tooth rotting sweat.
- Oh and Deb feels humbled because of the name? This is really her last problem: Emmett and the Avenue are looking for blood! It is incomprehensible to me that Deb can assume that the people she has abused and exploited for years would even consider welcoming her back again! And here we are again with the 'I can do no wrong'-attitude of the (absolutely not so) mighty Novotnys; but such thoughts and ideas are unthinkable in their scrambled brains.
- I'm very pleased with the gayborhood and their final hooray for their unwanted royal family… rotten Tomatoes and Eggs and a bunch of extra hard truth to take away. And the result? Debbie doesn’t learn one little thing! She plots away again! What the fuck does she have to do with Joan Kinney? Joany's help will not bring the results she wished for.
And finally some other random thoughts I had:
Is there a time of limitation for aiding and abetting to attempt murder thru child abuse? If there's not or if the time isn't over yet maybe Carl could arrest them for real?
Jack as the real perpetrator may be dead but there are those who enabled him to do what he did. And in the light of the fact that Jack clearly and undeniably said he wished Brian wouldn't exist, the assumption that he actively tried to kill him isn't very farfetched.
Maybe Mami as former FBI analyst can help him and dig? Is she an psychologist like the guys in BAU? Or was she analyzing data? Both has its merits…
I would really be positive surprised if Debbie's attempt to harass Brian thru his mother would backfire big time – maybe Joan will do the right thing for the first time in her sons life? Will she help the avenue to extinguish those cockroaches? We will see…
I must say that I hate Debbie in this Story with a passion. And I miss Daphne and Drew… a tiny little bit anyways.
I hope I haven't mixed up the chapters, but I tried my best
Greetings Ladies!
Later…

I loved the repartee "you suck" and "you swallow": I could see them in that heated exchange.
Debbie got Michael to shower and dress clean and they both ended dirty and smelling like very old garbage: that wasn't the greetings they expected, hoped or requested; too bad.
I can't wait to see how Joanie will manage Debbie.
Author's Response:
Hiya,
Yep, that repartee is one of the best Miss Merlot ever came up with. The first time I read it I was like: WTF? How brutal. The second time i went: WTF? This is humor.

Sounds like Precious is going to make Deb and Michael's life Hell especially after she gets through talking to the neighbors.
See they still haven't learned that Brian's abuse and their hands in it is not a joking matter.
Darren was smart to alert the family of the real Mr. Novotny of Dean's lies, she has been costing on that name for far too long and it needed to stop, of course with everything that has happened I bet she forgot to take care of the name change.
Perhaps Michael getting that money from Craig is a good thing, since he can pay the son of Lieutant John Michael Novotny.
Gus is so Cute.
Brian is coming back slowly and Justin is enjoying the benefits :)
Seems Lindsay was spreading herself for both sexes and still can't locate daddy lol

Don't Let Them Win Brian!!!
By pushing Justin away they are winning he is still giving them power to control his life.
Justin will have to be the strong one now and show Brian that he is more than what Jack, Joan, Deb and Michael made him into.
Deb trying to justify her behavior goes to sho that she doesn't see what she did as wrong, but it was abuse and she continued it for years after Brian left home.
Deb and Michael are about to learn that what you send out comes back at you times 3 and it is way more painful.
Bet Deb heads to The Avenue and tries to get everyone to listen to her version?
Hope she is ready for The Avenue to hit back.
Author's Response:
Hiya,
The saying is: You'll reap what you sow.
And my sweet lord they did sow a lot didn't they? Now the reaping will come. Not threefold but sevenfold.

The fact that the Novotny's still don't admit they were wrong for what they did make me so angry. That has hurt Brian so much that he's about to give up on the best thing that ever happened to him. Love, love, love Cynthia, Emmett and Ted.
Author's Response:
Hiya,
Yep, the sure are infuriating aren't they?
I guess they will never admitt they were wrong for that would mean defeat and loss of face.
Justin will show Brian the way back to himself.

Yassssss.....finally! Brian fights back. I think of this as the first wave. Let them try to fight back so the REAL hammer comes down on them. Life on Liberty after this night will be Hell on Earth for the NovotNobodies.
As far as Brian telling Micro dicked Mikey that he thought he was well...maybe could have loved him till Justin came along has to be part of Brian's payback.....it has to be...😬. That's what I'm going with.....toss the loser a crumb....then powdered it down to nothing by stomping on it.
Hopefully Justin, Emmett and Jennifer get a chance to extract some physical payback on Deb's and Michael....those fiesty furies would love to lay hands on those evil asshole's....and Cynthia too. Brian is the sibling of her Heart.

I was just thinking if Vic was there he would be so disappointed and I was right he was.
But he is coming home to make sure His Son is protected and very supported.
I wish Craig didn't give Michael money for the store because he doesn't deserve a penny, though Justin can actually make it profitable by selling all Michael's precious collectibles including the ones he has hidden. (Come on this is Michael we are talking about)
Brian and Justin need to get away and reconnect and more powerful friends could come in handy :)
Deb will be looking for revenge for this humiliation and Michael will follow anything Mommy says if it means he can get Brian.
The Avenue is taking their Sanity Back!!!
I was hoping Brian would take the house so he could have it torn down to put in a community garden so something good can grow out of the bad there.
Brian has family and he will be strong enough to face anything else coming his way just needs time to deal, process and grieve.
Only I think this was just the battle, the war hasn't even begun??

So it's been awhile since I reviewed and for that I'm very sorry. I'm finally caught up now though.
Their trip sounded lovely! Snotti Lotti certainly got her cummupence. Very amusing.
Lindsey I'm predicting is going to try to clain Brian as the father. Hopefully she's not tha stupid. Too easy to discredit. Who though. I'm guessing that lawyer dude.
There have been moments when I think there's is a miniscule chance of deb coming around, but then I realiz nope...not gonna happen.
I am REALLY looking forward to what Brian et al have up their sleeve as far as Deb and Michael are concerned. they are going to have to leave the freaking state, never mind Liberty Ave.
My goodness....I'm actually in tears rn writing this having just finished reading Brian's reaction. I can't even imagine the unbelievable pain......
Seriously girl.................the emotions you are able to instil in us a readers is crazy. I actually have gotten in angry moods because of Deb, Michale andLindsey. LOL
