A Thousand Beautiful Things (+Sequel) by [livejournal.com profile] lemon_bar and other AU

Hiya. Um, if I'm not supposed to be doing this, please tell me so and I'll delete this post. 

Um. I'm going to have very little internet access in the days to come and I really want to read Lemon_bar's "A Thousand Beautiful Things" (+ sequel). I went to DL the file on 4shared (the docx and pdf) but my anti-virus warned me the moment I clicked on the DL link (did a bit of experimenting and it turns out that it's just 4shared that's making my anti-virus a bit crazy, or the ads in particular). Needless to say, I'm very wary (aka, paranoid) about DLing anything from there for the time being.  I'd seriously appreciate it if someone who has the file(s) would be able to send me a copy. Really appreciate it. 

On another note, I've been reading a lot of canon-compliant B/J fics lately and am in a real mood for AUs where B and J meet under entirely different circumstances. I only ask that any recs be well-written and B+J be at least marginally IC (can tolerate OOCness if plausible, though). 

Thanks so much in advance. 


ETA: A Thousand Beautiful Things (+ Sequel) received! Thank you! If anyone would like the file, feel free to PM me.

It's been awhile since I checked in on QT, but isn't it still incomplete? I might be thinking of a different series . . .

QT is complete. It has a sequel, Queer Realities, which is complete, and then Queer Identities, which is still in progress. But Queer Theories alone is really really long. Really long. And is really really good. And the Brian Kinney in it is fantastic.

Ah, that explains my confusion. I was afraid of reading the first two (Theories and Realities) then needing Identities to wrap everything up. If the first two can be read without leaving a lot of hanging threads, I might give it a shot.

Really long doesn't bother me -- I love long, mega-novel length stories! Even though downloading all those individual chapters is a daunting concept.

Is it posted anywhere in fewer pieces?

yes, see answer I posted to wjsc99

Gaedhal has a yahoo group, which if I remember correctly you have to send that you want to join it, but then you can download QT from the yahoo page as a pdf.
I don't remember what the address of the yahoo group is, but check her livejournal page, I'm sure she has the info posted somewhere (or I never would have found it).
I'd offer to email it to you but I'm not at home and I don't have access to my laptop right now.

Just checked back and saw this. Thanks for the Yahoo Group info!
