What kind of friends would grownup Justin have? A little Sam Auerbach story. 

In my head this would be set around 2010. Justin would be about 27 and Sam would be in his late 50s. 

Brian Kinney is a playwright who has become accomplished in his chosen profession. When an elderly man places a stopwatch in his hand, along with an impassioned entreaty, Brian’s life is forever altered. What begins as a curious look into the past, turns into an obsessive journey to connect his life to the man that quickly begins to capture his every thought. Can these two find each other across the barriers of time?

Brian is a Sultan who rules over a small island located within the United Arab Emirates. He is respected and feared by all that fall under his reign. When business takes him to America, he discovers a prize he’s determined to collect. How will Justin respond to this new, and sometimes savage world?

"Can you really think of a reason that Peter would suddenly turn on how he feels about you?" Justin asked, trying to begin the conversation pragmatically. "He knows how your sister is, and she knows, at least to some extent, that the two of you are acquainted now. Don'tyou think she'd have tried every weapon she had if she was running a smear campaign against you?"

"I don't know," Brian said tiredly, rubbing his eyes. "I wouldn't put anything past her."

When Brian's nephew Peter and his girlfriend Alexis come to spend Christmas in New York, things are off to a great start -- until they're not. Soon, it becomes apparent to everyone that old Kinney family scars run deep.

Hello, my dear readers.  Today, I have something brand new for you.  Before anything else, I want to dedicate this story to one of my dearest readers and friend, Vicki, for entrusting me with her plot bunny for this story.  I couldn't have done it without her support.  Also a big thank you to Judy, my fantastic beta, and Marika, my talented banner maker.

Now, as to this story, this is for all you animal lovers out there.  What happens when Brian becomes the 'somewhat' reluctant (yet willing) rescuer of a pair of brutally abandoned dogs?  How will this one act of kindness change his life and that of his beloved husband and son?

P.S.  I've chosen Irish Setters in this case as a tribute to Vicki, a proud Irish lassie.

An alternate ending to season two and how Justin and Brian could have avoided the break-up.

Following a tragedy on Liberty Avenue, Carl decides to open a shelter for gay youths with some help from good friends and the community.

This story is set in charming1 and Lorie's "Bittersweet Universe" and is a prequel to Bittersweet Promise. However, this can be read as a stand-alone story.

Brian must make an extended trip to New York, so he takes some of the family with him.

Story #31 in the Sunshine Files

(Could be considered gap-filler 3.07-3.08) Justin POV during his and Ethan's break-up scene then Daphne POV when Justin shows up at her place afterward. Slight? Ethan bashing. Okay, a LOT Ethan bashing.

“Ethan, we need the money. And it’s not like I’m going to go and see him anyway, I mean he’s a Partner now, and besides he never goes down to the art department anyway."

WARNING: This fic contains abuse and rape.

Ethan is condescending towards Justin during his panic attack.
