The one where...

About Brian moving on and into a relationship with someone other than Justin reminded me of a WIP called:

The One Where Brian (or it could have been Justin) is with another guy and Justin (or it could have been Brian) wants him back - or something like that - it is known by it's initials.

It is written by someone who was a prolific and loved author early on in the fandom, but doesn't write now. The WIP was abandoned (*sigh!*) - maybe Myrna

Anyone remember this?

ETA: FOUND - link in comments - as well as a bit of debate, and insight into ABANDONED WIPs thanks to [livejournal.com profile] galeandrandy. Note, this is an abandonEND ENON

LoL. I just didn't even know how to respond to your previous comments because... yeah. All the stuff you point out here. :)

DAMN good story. Myrna did not paint Brian in a very positive light. That’s for sure.

Co-signed. I don't see Brian as a saint who can do no wrong, but he's really not the smug arrogant asshole from this story. I'd read elsewhere that Myrna didn't like Brian and I didn't believe it... until I read this.

But after you read a few zillions stories, it's easy to start getting them mixed up.

YES, exactly. I'm actually in shock sitting here. If You Needed Me Brian felt very true to Brian. I started reading TOWJWAGABI to tag it and... I don't even know. I guess Brian really pissed her off somewhere between writing the fics. He was "smug arrogant asshole" to the point of complete stupidity, which is a bit too far to make sense for me.

But hey, we're finally getting an "anti-brian" tag.

Yay.

If any story deserves such a tag, it's this one. :|
