“And? The verdict?†Justin prompted, his tone teasing.

Cathy,
This story was great. The events of your story also fit in well with the episode. It definitely seems like something a jealous Michael would do.
I heard in one interview that it actually was Hal who wielded the bat in the garage scene because Alec McClure (Hobbs) had already left before they filmed it and only Hal was available.

Hello folks. I have a brand new story for you that is based on a word challenge we were given a while back I hope you will enjoy it. The words we needed to use were fire, YMCA, tattoo, hospital, sizzle, and threat. This is what I came up with. In this story, Justin is still living in NYC, but not so happily. Not only does he miss Brian, but he is not thrilled with his living situation. Then one careless accident changes everything. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my beta, Judy, for her skills. Another huge thanks to my granddaughter, Marika, for the evocative banner. Hugs, Grammy

Sandy,
Loved this story. They are just so perfect together. Great job.
~Lorie
Author's Response:
I'm thrilled that you enjoyed my new story, Lorie. As always, I appreciate your comments very much. And as you know, I always keep our boys together in the end, right where they belong. Huge hugs, Grammy
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.

This story was great. I cried through most of it. Brian is a big softy and was probably happy to find a way to keep them without it being his decision.

Author's Response:
I am thrilled that you enjoyed my story, Lorie. Sometimes Brian just needs a little push in order to do what he wants to do deep down in the first place. I love showing his softer side whenever I can. Thank you so much for your great comments. Warm hugs, Grammy

Happy Holidays everyone. I have an early Christmas gift for you, and I hope you will enjoy it. This story is set a little over ten years after Justin headed off for New York City, leaving Pittsburgh behind. It seems that his plan didn't last long, and a decade later he is happily married to Brian. The only fly in the ointment of their happiness is how much Brian misses seeing his son, Gus far more often than the occasional visits back and forth to Canada. Justin's dearest wish is to arrange for Brian to receive the best Christmas gift ever, and he is willing to do whatever he can to make that happen

Great story. Now I'm sitting here crying. That is definitely something Justin would do for Brian.
~Lorie
Author's Response:
I'm so glad you agree with me that Justin would want Brian to have his son close by all the time, and it would be the perfect ending of one year and the beginning of another for all the Pittsburgh family. Thank you so much for your great comments, Lorie. Warm hugs, Grammy
Happy Valentine's to one and all of our beloved QAF family. I was listening to some of my favorite old rock & roll songs a few weeks ago and when the Sam Cooke song, 'Cupid' came on, this story was suddenly born in my head. I hope you will enjoy this little trip into a fantasy world as Cupid tells the assembled gods and goddesses of Mount Olympus all about his greatest challenge while doing his job. I owe a great deal of gratitude to my darling granddaughter, Marika, for the lovely banner and my talented beta, Judy, for her terrific skills. Hope you all have nothing but love on Valentine's Day and all year round.

That was so sweet and so believeable about the two of them. Great story.

Author's Response:
I am so happy that you enjoyed my little Valentine's gift, Lorie. I can only imagine that it took a lot of work on Cupid's part to get Brian to realize that Justin was his forever soul mate. Thank you very much for your lovely comments. Huge hugs, Grammy

Hey Girls,
I'd forgotten how hilarious Barefoot Blond was. Even if Justin gets more 'wordly' I hope he keeps some of his innocence, it's funny and refreshing. Maybe he could even learn to put the weasel in his place. Great story.

I just love how Justin sees everything through such innocent eyes. That's what makes his reactions and comments so funny. Great story.
~Lorie
Author's Response:
We may need your help again, Lorie, when we get to the next animal encounter. I doubt Justin will come across any skunks in downtown Pittsburgh, but you never know... lol. TAG.
Tag,
Due to construction, Bayonne and Jersey City now have skunks wandering around. Where I live now I have seen several, and this is a very (human) populated area.

Justin Taylor graduated from art school with a graphic design degree. While his partner Steven finished school, he was working for a small advertising firm. He had applied for the city's biggest advertising company, Kinnetik, but after meetint the owner decided he prefered to make less money at the small agency than work with the arrogent prick, Brian Kinney.
But sometimes fate has a mind of its own.

Maybe you could write this from Justin's point of view too. Please.
~Lorie
Author's Response: Thanks, Lorie. I already have Justin's story ready to go - will post soon. The boys always deserve a happy ending.
Justin tells Lindsey off and doesn’t go to New York after he realizes that it was Lindsey pushing Brian for him to go. Michael is next on his list.

Great chapter. At least Mel got to the weasel before he went over and dragged Justin off of Brian. If he tries to do anything it will be a sure way to lose Brian, even as a friend. Such a jealous idiot.

A little switch from the original series.
**It was originally stated Gus wasn't yet born. That has changed due to a plot point.
