I was just reading Branwen's opening chapters of her unfinished "Slip Away" (yet again), and realised once more how brilliant it is. I love a bit of Justin Suffering and Guilty Brian. I know it'll never be finished, but is there something out there like it?
For those people who have never read it, Justin left with Ethan then left Ethan when he cheated on him, so far so canon, but in this Justin has a terrible run of bad luck, and really suffers, especially medically and financially. The gang's apparently abandoned him as well as his family, and he seems to be giving up hope. The gang are slowly coming to realise what is going on and are trying to find him to help.
Any thoughts?

EDIT: Two or three good suggestions within.
RE. SLIP AWAY: I have it as a PDF on my iBooks so I must have downloaded it from the fic download lists on the right hand side of the getithere page. If only I could remember which one!

The best part of that fic what Brian changing his soap. I swear it made me giggle for a few days. I have no clue why, it made sense for the story but the idea of Brian going new soap shopping killed me dead.

"Hmmm what soap is good enough forme, but would throw the boy off my scent?"

There are three things about that fic that etched it into my heart. Brian soap shopping, Justin waking up at the loft after he was sick and being all o_0 over it, and Justin bringing the ice cream and then not using it. I felt that ice cream melting I swear.

OMG such a great fic. All of hers were great in a very special hold me kind of way.

Very true. I loved That Happy Feeling, too. I still haven't read all of Signed Sealed Delivered, or Ritorna...whatever it's called. That one. I really need to, but I can only take Riza in small doses.

It's "Ritorna a me" that means "come back to me"....even if it's very bad italian grammar, I get she loves Italy and our language but (pweese let me say it, it'd be my first time) GET AN ITALIAN BETA, LOL!!!!
But I can forgive Rizabeau everything, I ADORE her ff;)

Hi :) did you read 'BIRD ON A WIRE' by Nightvision55?
It's kind of Justin Suffering and Guilty Brian. Justin kind of giving up hope...
But it's not like the gang's abandoned him, he run away, and Brian take him back to Pitt. :D
I don't know how to link. so...
