You need to put this under an LJ-cut.

LJ-CUT (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=75)

From:

Okay, wait...I think I misread this post. Do you HAVE these fics? Are you LOOKING for these fics? Or are you only looking for the bottom part of that list? If so, we really don't need that huge list. First off, most people here have read them. And if you were making a rec-list, it's customary to provide links to the fics.

So if you're only looking for those last few, you can delete the rest of your list.

From:

right =D

actually i'm asking if the stuff at the bottom are worth a read..

i'm not making a rec... i posted a question before on HQ fics.. but i've read the stuff they've recced... so i provided a list of those i've read... just looking for those HQ not in the list

From:

Okay, but you already have a post with these fics listed, so you need to cut that part out and only post the fics you're still asking about. Otherwise, this is going to turn into a "taste is subjective" post, and that's somewhere we don't wanna go...ever again.

From:

Thank you for deleting the top part of your post, as it did confusingly just look like a rec list without links.

I'm not sure why you felt the need to do another post, as you already had a post asking for AU recs and gave your list inside that. But you might want to edit the subject line on this post now to reflect your actual question about these fics.

From:

yup.. changed the question.. =D

thanks for the advice! =))

From:

What Red said about taste being subjective still applies, of course. People disagree all the time about what is IC, and somebody may love a fic and rec it and you may hate it, or somebody may tell you to avoid a fic you would have loved.

I adore

rromantic. I would say that her Brian and Justin are IC, and as long as you are open to reading from the POV of a cat (with a very entertaining personality, lol), you should enjoy the Beam 'verse.

From:

lol.. a cat?? hahahha... will definitely check this out... omg... a cat.. where did that come from? haha

From:

The Beam stories start while Justin is with Ethan. Beam is actually Ethan's cat, Wolfram, who doesn't care much for Ethan and kind of adopts Brian and Justin, lol. And gets a new name.

How do I find a fic just by the title, without an authors name? I have wondered this for a LONG time...

Thanks!

From:

yeah... i also don't know the author of some of these fics...
i got most in the shared folder.. hmm....

Boys Keep Swinging is mine, it's here:http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=qafkinnetic&keyword=Boys%20Keep%20Swinging&filter=all

I'll look later to see if I have any of the others saved.

From:

wow thanks!

From:

Yeah, I've actually wanted to read this but I read some of the comments at the end and saw you had never started the sequel...anyway, I hope you pick back up on it because it really seems like you had a lot of great feedback!

From:

qafkinnetic.livejournal.com

Yeah, I started a prequel and then never got anywhere with it. I have the sequel planned out but I have no idea when I'm gonna get around to writing it. Boys Keep Swinging itself ends only on a very slight cliffie, but finishes off enough that it's more of a "leave how they go on afterwards to the reader's imagination" kind of thing, the way 5.13 was in the show.

From:

You ask someone if they know who wrote it.

From:

are the fics listed above in character? they're just a lot so i don't know which to read...(the ones left)

From:

No idea. The only one I've read of your remaining list is Kindred, and that's a de-age fic, so no, not IC. I did like it, though. The second part of that series is an abandoned WIP.

From:

oh.. it's a WIP.. =( sigh. thanks though.

From:

Just the second part. The first part is finished, and it stops in an okay place.

From:

wonder who wrote boys keep swinging

From:

The author actually posted further up and said it was hers...it was

qafkinnetic

From:

You can check the fic folders (the ones listed title first), check a big archive like Midnight Whispers and click to look by titles, try Google and type in the title and other helpful words (like "QAF" or "brian/justin"). When all else fails, make a post here! :)

From:

I would have to say, the most IC of all of these is the Tarot Series. It was abandoned, but ends at a really good place.

Civil Differences was not IC due to the time period, but was really well written & I enjoyed it.

Irish Hunk...was not in character but I loved the story.

I don't remember the characterization of Lost or A New Beginning, but I do remember liking them and looking for other fics by those authors.

Started reading Famili Flaws, but had to stop as it was just too upsetting to me, but you should form your own opinion.

If you are looking for others that seem to be as good as a continuation of the series you should read:

Hope you haven't read these yet cause they are really great!

From:

Irish Hunk...was not in character but I loved the story.

Yup. At least Irish Hunk is OOC on purpose. It gives you a very different Brian who wishes he could be like Brian as we know him.

From:

i've read them all and yes.. they are amazing fics (love that will never grow old and into the sunset)! i think they are in character although i was skeptical of season 6 by cleverdevil.. i was not comfortable with the script format... but it was a nice read

i havent read full circle.. i'm waiting for the author to finish the whole thing =D

From:

snapegirlusa.livejournal.com

I don't think bdeviled will finish Full Circle, but I can assure you, it ends in a really good place it's TOTALLY worth the read. I've read it over and over again and it's one of the first things I recommend to new QAF readers. I love this story and I think it's beautifully done. Really angsty with a wonderful payoff.

From:

I agree, I was perfectly happy where 'Full Circle' was left. I wouldn't have minded more, but as an ending, it works nicely.

Can I just say I adored full circle! One of my favs.

From:

snapegirlusa.livejournal.com

You recommended it to me--I ADORED it--and then recommended it to everyone I know who is new to QAF. It's really wonderful. ♥

From:

just finished reading it... i thought i'm gonna hate cal at first.. but i didn't.. pretty rare for me to like justin's other man.. oh well... max is adorable! "MyBrian" is a definite smooch-worthy

From:

snapegirlusa.livejournal.com

I'm so glad you took a chance, and that you liked it. I was so moved by Cal and Brian's understanding of one another. They both truly showed their love for Justin. MAX!!! I miss that story already. I might have to read it again.
