Bio:
Retired grandmother. Love QAF characters & cast especially Brian & Justin!
I love the supernatural twist to the Brian and Justin romance. Very different from other stories and it's well written and entertaining to read. - samcdee
Justin moves into a new loft apartment in preparation for starting his first term at PIFA. Upon arrival, he finds a “Welcome Letter” from his new landlord, Brian Kinney. But, when he goes to respond, odd things start to happen. Can these two men reach across time itself to realize their love? (Loosely based on the plot of Alejandro Aresti's The Lakehouse - one of my all-time favorite movies.)

Ok Tag, I have to say, I never read The Loft because I am not into supernatural, but since I now know what an amazing writer you are along with Sally, I felt in observance of your 7th anniversary, I have to read it. Glad that I started since even though this was your first story, I am hooked after just one chapter. You had the talent from the beginning. Well back to reading. Have a good day.

Thank you for giving this story a try. I think I have improved as a writer since posting this one, but even so, it's still pretty good. It's also my baby, so I'm fond of it! Thanks for reading. TAG

Wow, just wonderful. Glad I picked it to read since no one has been posting any stories the last few days. Sorry I didn't read it sooner. So happy you continued to write after this story.

Had a very hard time reading this story. I am a Brian and Justin together happily ever after fan and Brian being married to Eric nearly broke my heart, but your writing is so good, once I got into it, I kept at it. I am really bad about reviewing after each chapter since I will stop reading a story if I don't like the way it is going. If and when I complete it, I then review. I guess I am optimistic that Derailed may get my guys back together so maybe I will give it a chance. And, because I have 93 wips, I no longer read some stories until they are complete. It is very frustrating to a reader to get into a story and have the writer just drop it. I am a senior citizen and seriously don't know if I will live to see the end. LOL Hope all is well with you during these difficult days. Keep writing you are great at it.

After an accident that nearly kills him, Brian has a long road to recovery. While he knew deep down that it would be a rough road, he wasn't prepared for something like this.

Author's Response:
Thanks so much for taking the time to read and review. This story is NOT complete, but I have not forgotten it. I was just dealing with writers block. I will be coming back to it as soon as Tag and I are done with Time Blitz :)
Emmett tells the story of how HE was responsible for bringing Brian and Justin together (or at least his version of the story). This story is an eclectic mix which is part fairy tale, part folk tale, and part tall tale, with an appropriate amount of alliteration and sprinkled all over with a generous amount of humor.

Thank you. So happy you liked this one. It was a hoot to write. I had so much fun researching southern saying for Emmett to use! Thanks for reading. TAG
Did you ever wish you could go back in time and change just one thing you’d done - just one - thinking that you could change your whole life for the better? Well, Brian Kinney did. He was sure that all his problems stemmed from that first time he broke his first rule about sex - never let a trick stay the whole night. If he had never let Justin Taylor insinuate himself into his life, he would still be the top Stud of Liberty Avenue, free from the heartache and headaches of a relationship, with his friendships and family intact. At least that was what Brian was thinking the night after Justin left him and went to live with the stepford fags, Michael & Ben. But, every action has some direct or indirect consequence and Brian may not necessarily like the results that he gets when he wishes he could go back in time and change his life. This story begins after Episode 5.07 but flashes back to episode 1.02 & 1.03.

Flip a coin... any coin! But what happens when two sides of the same coin meet? Brian Kinney and Justin Taylor are about to find out. And what happens when the two aloof men find themselves breaking all of their self-imposed rules? Guaranteed mayhem!

Brian and Justin understand each other. The rest of the world does not, even though many of them think that they do.
This one-shot, set long after Justin has moved to New York, shows that things in the lives of those around us are not always what they seem

Ok, I am running out of tissues. I hadn't planned to review before the end, but I am an emotional mess and just wanted you to know how powerful your writing comes across. Thank you for this amazing story. Off to the next chapter.

WONDERFUL, Thank you for my happy ending. Such a good story and you are correct, you have to overcome the bad to appreciate the good. Used a few more tissues, but that always lets me know just how much I am into the story. Great writing. Hope you will write something else for us.
Author's Response:
Thank you so much. It is always so exciting when someone really enjoys my story, and tears means it hit the heart, just like Justin's art. Thanks again for the great reviews.
Justin has escaped a gilded cage mired in abuse. Having finally broken free, he is now looking to redefine himself as a man. When the offer to become the new Art Director for Kinnetik PA comes in, he jumps at the chance for freedom.
Brian hires Justin as the new Art Director for Kinnetik PA but Brian has secrets of his own. Can each of them teach the other to trust someone other than themselves?
THE STORY IS COMPLETE!!
HAPPY READING!!
