Aw, this chapter had lots of laughs but also lots of sadness.
I loved Brian with the green comb over chasing Nick into AJ's room. I can imagine AJ up to all that kinky shit too.
Poor Nick :( I wonder what'll happen with Kevin there.
Author's Response: LOL it had to be AJ, cause really, who else would be caught like that lmao. *hugs Nick* we'll see if Kevin helps. Thanks Steph!

P.S. I loved the Double Rainbow references! WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!
Author's Response: I thought you might LOL. Hehe...so bright and soooo vivid...

OMG Rose!!! This chapter was SO triple rainbow all the way!!! I love the way it started out so light and funny and then got SO dark and angsty! I was laughing my ass off at the beginning, especially with Brian's "balding green head" and god-knows-what was going on in AJ's room (LMFAO!!!!). But it was so sad when Nick forgot all that instantly, and then the last scene was just... wow... intense!! Poor Nick. :( It's totally understandable, how he's feeling... I think anyone would consider just ending it all on their terms, while they were still with it enough to do so. Obviously glad he didn't, though! And YAY, Kevin to the rescue!!! I freaking love it!!! This was probably my favorite chapter yet! More soon! :)
Author's Response: Awwww thanks TR! Poor Brian, but I figure in five years he'll have lost more hair lmao, and then picturing that neon green LMAO. I was cracking myself up. I feel so bad for what I'm putting Nick through, but it's also fun LOL. I think it's understandable too, cause he's only got two options. And I can see why ending it now would be incredibly tempting. Kevin's always to the rescue hehe. :) I'm happy you loved it!

What a great update, Rose! It was really sad to see Nick starting to go downhill. Seems like the guys don't even know how to handle it. LOVED the part with AJ! That was awesome and pretty rockstar of him. Lol. I love how you had them shocked after...it's like they couldn't even comprehend what they just saw.
The part where he's thinking about suicide is really sad. Loved the way you wrote him alone in the room at the end-very descriptive. Can't wait to see what'll happen next when Kevin talks to him.
Author's Response: Thanks! Yeah that's the thing, people know Nick doesn't know how to handle this, but really, the others don't know how to deal with this either. Despite everything, there's probably been a layer of denial this whole time. As Nick started to deteriorate, that's gonna give. LOL I'm glad you loved the part about AJ, if anyone was gonna be doing that it would have to be him. Thankies about the suicide scene. I feel like with Nick, suicide's always going to be lingering in his mind somewhere, how could it not be, given the situation? As sad as it is, it makes you wonder what you would do if you were in his place. We'll see what happens with Kevin now. He's been on my mind lately thanks to the interview and Oprah, so I felt the need to bring him back in.

Oh snap, Kevin...dun, dun, duuuuun. Poor Nick, he feels so scared helpless with what's happening to him. Great update, Rose.
Author's Response: LOL *insert dramatic music here* and that's exactly it, Nick's terrified and I can't blame him. Thanks! :)

aww, I loved the playful start of the chapter and lmao "so bright, so vivid" :OP And then the turn it took when he forget everything. :O( Poor Nick. I'm happy to see Kevin making an appearance. Please don't kill him or shoot him. LOL ;O) this has been the emoticon review!
Author's Response: LOL you know I had to stick that in there somehow. And I know :( poor Nick, I wanna hug the guy. LOL I won't kill or shoot Kevin :P. Thanks for the fabulous emoticon review! lol

Heavy stuff. Loved Brian chasing Nick into AJ's room...yikes. I'm glad I wasn't them because that was...wow. AJ is such a freak! I wanted to cry when Nick contemplated slitting his wrists...I have been there and chose not to do it either. I was surprised that Kevin showed up, I am interested to see how it pans out :) love daddy kevin! Amazing chapter as usual!
Author's Response: LOL gotta have a dash of comedy with the drama. AJ is a freak, and I think we all know that lmao. (Hopefully not THAT much though haha). Awww, the thing with Nick, is that there really aren't a lot of options for him. Nick's surprised Kevin showed up too. Thanks!

Good that they did that before he can't. And the memories are normal. I will be crying a lot when it starts to take him. Normal I guess. But thats why this is one of my favorites. Very lifelike. Keep the excellent updates coming.
Marguerite
Author's Response: Yep, and that's Nick's logic on it too. :) Thanks a lot hehe.

Yay, good to see an update!! There is no well in hell I'd bungee jump, I can imagine just how terrified Brian would've been.
Aww, I loved the way Nick and Baylee were reacting as they played Mortal Kombat. I wonder if they really will put the dye in the shampoo though?
Author's Response: I would never be able to do it either LOL. Brian's fear = me LMAO.
Date: 10/10/10 04:08 pm Title: Chapter Nineteen
What a great chap! Love that they went bungee jumping together. That was really sweet. And the ending was a bit bittersweet. Love that he was reminiscing about the times like that when he was playing with Brian. LOL at Yoot! And I can't help but start to get sad :( This is gonna be so sad when he starts going downhill. Thanks for updating!
Author's Response: Thank you Sel! I loved the idea of them bungee jumping, especially with Brian lmao. Yoot...I like that word too much lmao. It's gonna definitely get sad, but the twisted part of me is looking forward to getting there. :)

LOL!!! Loved this chapter, so far its my favorite next to the rollercoaster one and the Christmas one. I can't believe Nick got Brian to go sky diving, loved Brian praying and not admitting he liked it. Nick and Baylee are cute together, I also liked how you kind of put the memories as Nick was playing with Baylee. I can't wait for the next chapter and the prank Nick is plotting! Should be fun! Great update!
Author's Response: Awwww you know, I loved writing it. So it's good to see you loved reading it. I don't think Brian can believe Nick got him to do it either lmao. I'm glad you like Nick and Baylee, I love their bond too. It's really good to compare to Nick and Brian's :). Thanks Tracy!

Haha, a great chapter. Loved all of it. Interesting that Nick's having all these flashbacks. Great update, can't wait for what's to come.
Author's Response: Thanks! This one was fun, picturing Brian amused the hell out of me LOL. I like Nick flashing back cause even though I don't write fics (typically) about BSB back in the day, I can do bits of it here anyway. Thanks again :)
Date: 10/10/10 05:09 am Title: Chapter Nineteen
aww. I loved that they bungee jumped together. It was a nice sweet moment. And of course, great choice in names for the operator. LOL I also enjoyed the bittersweet feeling of the second half of your chapter with Nick playing video games with Baylee. I am going to be so sad when he starts forgetting things. Great job and a nice surprise to see an update from you. I wasn't expecting one since you just updated Undead. :O)
Author's Response: LOL I thought you'd like that. Thanks, I really like touching on this stuff while I still can in this story. I'm gonna be pretty sad when he starts going downhill too. Thankies, and you know, I was feeling really productive LOL. I'm surprised myself...so don't get used to it! hehe.
Date: 10/10/10 04:55 am Title: Chapter Nineteen
Aww, I loved this chapter! As funny as Nick making Brian bungee jump was, my favorite was the last scene with Baylee, when Nick was flashing back to the similar moment with Brian. Very sweet! I wonder if he's going to confuse Baylee with Brian later on... my great-grandma who had Alzheimer's did that a lot. You have been a productive penguin with this story lately; keep it up, DR! :)
Author's Response: Awww thanks TR! :) You know, originally that scene didn't exist in my mind lol, but once I thought of it, I thought it'd be a nice way to flash back and wrap up after his bonding with Brian. As for confusing the two... it's a thought :). Productive Penguin? I like it! LMAO. I'm the productive penguin, you can be the fruitful ferret! :)
