Yikes!  Well it is certainly all out there on the table now.  Brian is actually hearing for the first time the cold hard facts as Justin sees, hears, and feels them. It seems he is even listening.

Now, if he accepts them, he has a lot of work to do to repair the damaage.  It's clear they still love each other.  Love clearly isn't enough sometimes.  I'm hoping it will be for them in the future.

 

Good job, enjoyed this so much.



Author's Response:

I think this conversation was long overdue and maybe they should have had it years ago before Justin left for New York to figure out if that was really something he wanted or something he just thought Brian wanted him to do... It would certainly have saved them a lot of pain and heartbreak if they had just communicated more honestly back then :(

We'll see if Brian will accept his part in this and if he does, how he'll deal with the knowledge that instead of making Justin's biggest dream come true (a career in his mind), he really destroyed it and took it away from him by keeping his son a secret.

As for love - no, it isn't always enough, but like you said, maybe it might just be for them. We'll have to wait and see...

Thanks so much for your comment! More will be up soon :)

So, Justin doesn't feel the slightest tingle, when he hugs Brian.  He doesn't seem to ponder, what if?  

I've been missing this, so I might not be caught up with the previous chapters.  

Usually, I read on A03.  

I'm liking this, though.



Author's Response:

That's the question: Does Justin feel something? And if yes, what?

I am glad you like it :) More will be up soon!

Private indeed.  So I missed the thing with Scott.....So.....care to explain for me?



Author's Response:

 

Sandra,

Scott was talking to the make-up artist about trying to cover Randy's tattoo. Then he made a comment about the episode where the guys were in Woody's and talking about Brian having a tattoo that no one had seen. So I figured that Brian's tattoo must be somewhere that is covered, considering he showers at the gym and fucks at Babylon, so many, many people have seen him naked. So he has Justin shave him so he can see the tattoo.

Summary:

FF HotShower

Brian is an Art Critic for the Sun Times, who has obsessive compulsive disorder. Justin is a well-known, yet lonely artist. For six years, Brian has written words regarding Justin's work for the paper. Justin feels that the words the critic wrote were as though he had painted his paintings himself and knew each piece as he himself knew them. For six years, Brian is too shy to ask for an interview, much to his boss' annoyance. Due to the way Brian dresses…in clothes from Wal-Mart with the exception of his sports jerseys, Justin assumes the man is straight, though he secretly keeps a scrapbook and sketchbook devoted to the man. What happens when Brian's boss draws the line and insists that Brian conduct a one on one interview with Justin Taylor?

Well, this is different.  A shy, anxious Brian.  What will you do next?

Summary:

Something I wrote as an exercise. Not beta'd and not great either. Just some fluff and a little angst.

Sometimes, I just need something happy.  This made me smile so much.  Thank you and I love vanilla, too.



Author's Response:

I’m happy this made you happy! Vanilla is one of my favourite scents. It’s why I made them both have it be a part of how they smell. 

 

Thank you :)

I'm fairly certain that I've now read this about five times.  This time, I didn't cry.  All the other times, yes.   For me this was simply cathartic.  I do feel cleansed from a couple of weeks of stress.  Ha....really, thanks for the tears.  

You know how much I love them as a couple.  It throws everything off it's axis otherwise.  At least for me.   And you know, I love a good death fic.  This had it all.

Thanks, K....giant hugs.  I loved everything about this, in case I haven't said that anywhere else.

 



Author's Response:

I'm still so, so glad that you love it, and that it was everything you hoped it would be! <333 Giant hugs back. :)

There it was, right there for the picking and it went right over my head.  Set up and miss.  Hahahahaha, I did not see that coming and that makes it special.  Thanks....



Author's Response:

LOL! Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! I almost didn't include the girls but decided it wouldn't be very fair and the idea of the double wedding just popped into my head. I have to admit, it surprised me, too! LOL! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Come to Jesus by NoChaser Rated: A starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 11]
Summary:

 

If Brian and Michael had done the deed, and Justin and Ben had balls of steel. How might it have gone?

A little humor, a little angst, and a touch of Jesus.

Another kind-of-a-snippet-definitely-a-morality-tale one-off, while I'm finishing up a longer work.
