***Major Character Death!***

Summary: Three years have gone by since Brian’s world was ripped apart by the tragedy of Justin’s supposed death. Is Justin truly lost to him forever or will destiny intervene?

STORY IS NOW COMPLETE!

The 'what and where' of Brian's tattoo.

Post 5-13. Brian ends all contact with Justin from one day to the other and Justin has no idea why. After five years in New York he returns to Pittsburgh and goes looking for answers that are long overdue. His whole life will be changed forever when he finally gets the answers he has been looking for. 

For Justin, it was all about the ass. A series of College AU vignettes. What started out as what was supposed to be only one vignette for my Wednesday Hump Day challenge spiraled into a drabble collection of it's own.

It's been a year, a year full of pain and sorrow. A year in which nothing meant anything for Brian. After losing Justin at the bombing in Babylon everything was white and black.

However... what will happen if one day suddenly everything changed? What if he had never really met Justin? Then why does he remember everything they had gone through while the rest of the gang doesn't even know who Justin is?

Justin and Brian have been together for over twenty years. They have a large family, with all the good and bad it involves. One morning their world is thrown into turmoil. Got the idea from Safe Passage, good movie but changing quite a bit. 

Well now, I don't know about the rest of you wonderful QAFers, but the ending for Brian and Justin wasn't the only one that irritated me.  I was extremely fond of Emmett, as I know so many of you folks were too.  I wanted a happy ending for him, but we all know how it ended with his footballer, Drew Boyd.  I got to thinking that it was time for them to have their closure too, and who better than master schemer, Brian to get the ball rolling (who can forget the way Brian set up Michael at his birthday...or even better, the way he set up Ethan and Justin at the diner when they were still secret lovers).

  
So here you go...Brian Kinney becomes matchmaker for Emmett and Drew.  Will his plans succeed or fail miserably?  Let's find out.  A huge thank you to my sounding board, Lori...my beta, Judy...and my dear Amy for the banner.  Enjoy! 

Brian wakes up to find some very unusual guests in his loft.

Just a reporters view of the gang.

Present day, post-episode 5.13. Justin has returned to Pittsburgh to build a life and future with Brian. When Daphne asks Justin for a favor, he agrees without realizing the effect it will later have on him, Brian, and their entire family’s lives.
