A Justin - Gus ficlet. On Christmas Day, Justin rationalizes his feelings for Brian's son. 

Merry Christmas, everyone! 

Epilogue to the Betrayal Series and set two years after Restoration. We catch a glimpse of life in the Kinney household.

STORY #5 in the Perfidy Series

Justin has come back into Brian's life after the Ethan fiasco and Christmas is fast approaching.  Both men want to show how grateful they are to be back together so they want to buy the perfect gift for one another.  This story is inspired by the classic short story "Gift of the Magi".  I want to thank Heather for her fine beta work and Eka for the wonderful banner. 

Summary: And with the end of Brian Kinney came the end of all that existed around him. 

(Not *really* a death fic, but... well, you'll see.)

Brian Kinney only celebrates accomplishments. Written for Moonshadow's Tenth Anniversary "Drunken" Challenge.

Sometimes demons come very unexpectedly. Written for Moonshadow's Scary Things Challenge.

Post 513 - Alone for the holidays. Written for The Worst Holiday Ever Challenge at Moonshadow.

Michael and Lindsay are as usual up to no good, and end up in therapy. Somehow so do the rest of the Gang.

Thank you Lorie for helping me turn this into more than an idea when I wanted to delete it.

I was watching 'So You Think You Can Dance' when a performance was given to the song 'Somebody That I Used to Know'.  Bingo!!!  Another inspiration for a Brian/Justin love story.  Amazing how it keeps happening.  LOL!  Anyway, this is not a songfic.  Only the title inspired me.  This is a What If? story.  It begins with...What if Brian got the job in New York City that was offered just before the end of Season One and left Pittsburgh behind.  The story moves forward to five years later.  Justin has moved to NYC after graduating from PIFA and after a year in the City, he runs into Brian at a fine restaurant.  What happens then?

I want to thank my dear Granddaughter, Marika, for the evocative banner and my dear friend, Judy for her wonderful beta skills.  I hope you will enjoy their reunion as much as I enjoyed envisioning it.  Warmest hugs, Grammy
