Prequels

[deviant-queen.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for one specific thing, but similar fics are wanted as well.

I've been reading a lot of prequels lately and now that I've run out I need more. I either need Brian in high school or college. And no, I don't need B/J highschool fics and I definitely don't need fics that insinuate that Brian and Justin met before the show began when Justin was a little boy. I just need fics centered on Brian before Queer as Folk. Things like the Brian/Michael or Brian/Lindsay friendships and especially former relationships of Brian's.

One specific one I remember but can't find is about a guy that continuously cheated on Brian (I think it was while he was in college) and Brian continued to forgive him and take him back until the guy left him to, I guess, prevent himself from causing more pain. There's one specific scene in which Brian asks the guy how much he loves him and the guy says "more than" either my life or the world and Brian replies with "liar". It was pretty AU, but that's okay with me.

Any and all recs would be greatly appreciated.

ETA: Links in the comments. I would appreciate more links as well.

http://www.morpheusqaf.com There are several prequels on her site. Go to the bottom of the page and there's a link for a chronological list.

I just noticed some other prequels the other day somewhere else and will have to think a bit about where they were.

The other story you reference is one I know I've read and I'll have to think about it, too. Hope someone else knows it faster. lol

Yeah, I've read all the ones by Morpheus multiple times. But thanks for the link, I didn't have it bookmarked.

The Incredible True Adventures of Stickman and Blob (http://www.bjfic.net/viewstory.php?sid=1216) by mintwitch. It's at bjfic but it's all young Brian/Michael.
Keep yourself intact (I will be coming back) (http://dontyouwaitup.livejournal.com/49478.html) by dontyouwaitup. Now...there's B/J in this, but imo there's much more pre-show B/M & B/L.
That's all I can think of atm.

Paul Plesko, one of the earlier writers in the fandom, and whose stuff is quite different from most of the other QaF fanfic out there, wrote quite a bit of pre-series Brian. An index to his stories can be found here: http://www.squidge.org/~pplesko/FictionIndex.html

I know you posted 6 or so months ago but if you get this I dont have any fics for you but the prequel books were good. kinda gave insight into why brian was so against love and what not. also if the fic writers read the books that could be how they came up with brian meeting justin when he was a kid because they do that twice in the books. I personally thought that was a cute way to add justin into the books that her other wise could not have been in. and each mention was like a paragraph or one page. nothing really but it was cute

Yes, I own all of the books. :) Thanks though.
