Bio:

FTM, fat fem & proud, balding, bearded & ponytailed, Libertarian, atheist/agnostic, divorced.


Fanfiction-wise, I tend toward serial monogamy: I was entirely faithful (okay, almost entirely) to Brokeback Mountain for eight years (2006-2013); then Sherlock Holmes--and related fandoms--got hold of me and kept me enthralled through about mid-2015; Harry Potter was my next fandom and held my (nearly) undivided interest until just recently--Spring of 2018--when I moved on to Queer as Folk (US).


I'm also on LiveJournal and AO3 under the same username. In fact, anywhere I am uses that name, including my email at earthlink.net.

This is fun. I'm not actually particularly anti-Michael myself, but for some reason I really enjoy reading anti-Michael stories. And I can soooo see Mikey pulling something like this.

Why Not Me. by starlight Rated: E half-star [Reviews - 187]
Summary: Feature

I chose this story as it is a "what if" that continues the story of Brian and Justin after Season 5. Starlight is an author that pulls you into a story by the third paragraph and takes you on a wild ride. There's angst, humor and drama that has you cheering and yelling in disgust in the same chapter. She has this writing style that keeps you wanting more every chapter she writes - mamaduck

Brian and Justin decide it's time to have kids.

UN. BE. LIEVABLE. Lindsay can't understand why she shouldn't continue receiving child support payments for a child that is no longer living with her; a child that she herself kicked out of the house.

Lindsay thinks "I need to make Brian see I am the only only who can make him happy." I think that what she really means is that however miserable Brian would be living with her, she can find ways to make him even more unhappy for not giving Lindsay her own way!

The QAF fanfic search site getithere.dreamwidth.com has a tag for this kind of situation: Lindsay is a psycho hosebeast.

Oh, my. Yes! Oh, I do love me a good "Whoops, we stole the wrong sperm!" story.

Summary:

Two years after Justin leaves, Brian decides that living apart isn't what he wants. He makes his move to be together. What if that happens along with an offer from a friend to have a baby.

Lorie thank you for doing what you do for me as my beta, the readers probably thank you too.

Yeah, absolutely do not let Michael or Lindsay know that Brian and Justin are together!

Upside of this strategy: they won't be trying to break them up.

Downside: they will be trying to fix them up with every bore and troll of their acquaintance.

Emergency key. Michael and Lindsey (especially Michael) don't seem to understand that:

  1. Arterial bleeding is an emergency;
  2. The building is on fire is an emergency;
  3. The zombie hoards are three blocks away and moving fast is an emergency; but
  4. I thought I'd ask you why you didn't want to come to my dinner party is not an emergency.

"I need to make sure those two aren't allowed in Brian’s room.” Justin tells the doctor.

“We greatly appreciate it," he responds, calling security.

Since this is only chapter 8 of 43, I think I can safely assume that it's going to take a lot to get rid of Michael and/or Debbie! I await future developments with interest.

I hope the military school does the job. I really feel sorry for Jenny--if she goes on as she is, she's going to have such an unhappy life; and she will never understand why. But Lindsay seems to have turned it around (thanks to Jenny as an outstanding negative role model), so maybe Jenny can, too.
