Mods, I apologise if this is an inappropriate post: please delete it if I'm stepping over any lines.

I've been following Gaedhal's latest QT stream, Coup de Foudre, only guess what? It looks like it may not be completed because of all the hostile comments the author's been getting because - get this - people don't like it being a B/J story! They're all sick of Justin, apparently, and Gaedhal's beginning to wonder if it's worth going on in the fandom if tastes have now swung so far that nobody wants to read anything B/J centred.

I don't want to kick off any Brian v Justin arguments, only to say that if you've enjoyed Gaedhal's wonderful fics then perhaps you could express your appreciation before we lose another great author from the fandom.

Sorry again if I shouldn't have commented on this here.

ARRRRGH! My e-reader overheated while I was going through another marathon and doing my spring cleaning. I now have to go to the computer on my breaks. At any rate, I couldn't pass up the following statements:

"A Brian without his Justin is like a Romeo without his Juliet..."

"Brian and Justin compliment each other because of their differences, not despite them."

That is what I love about the Brian and Justin together. It was the magic of mixing the two opposites -- the Yin to the Yang. My favorite stories are the ones that know how to capture that. I haven't found that magic in any other fandom.

Okay, now I'm going to go through my QAF withdrawals while I do boring housework.
