friendship B/J

Does anyone can recommend some fic where Justin and brian break up and does not get back together but remain somewhat friends? Lots of angst... I'm in a weird down-sad-low mood...
Thank youuuuuu for any suggestion that comes up..
Cheers!

I think someone asked for this a couple days ago.

I just finished reading this series of fics, it is the most angst filled, sad, depressing, heart breaking, frustrating and addictive stories I have ever read.

Now Justin and Brian haven't exactly broken up but they sure aren't together... more of the time... Lots of twists and turns... You will never be the same again. I'm not in rehab...

This is a very long and detailed story, I read it with my friend Yvonne Reid so we had each other for support... If you start reading it, know you can email me to vent... You will need to vent to someone...

For more info see my posting "Best Author Nomination" this is really a great and intense story... Good Luck ~ Kathleen

Just about the best Brian moving on without Justin (but Justin is in the story to a degree) is by Brian Hennessey and is called "Swamp Fever." Very long and really good writing -- the sequel is called "Burn" and both can be found at Brian's fiction site:
http://www.brians-fiction.com/ (All his writing is terrific, by the way).

Another long series where Brian and Justin go their separate ways (lots of angst) and Brian moves on (lots of Justin in this series) is on the Moonshadow Tribe site and are by Arwensong. The series is her "Better Friends and Lovers" universe and can be found here:

Start with "Better Friends and Lovers".

[personal profile] soundczech. Her fics are probably the ultimate B/J friendship fics.

I died reading both. Oh, and Subject To Change has B/J getting back at the very end. But it's brilliant.
