Brian "attempts" suicide while Justin is with Ethan; Justin is scared of storms and alone.

[phaen-ncis.livejournal.com]

Okay, there are two stories that are evading me right now. They have been stuck in my head for a while now and I've gone through so many tags I'm going crazy cause I can't find them.

1. Justin has left Brian for Ethan. He gets a call that Brian is in the hospital (I think). When he gets there he learns that the gang believe Brian had tried to commit suicide. When Brian wakes up he believes he and Justin are still together. To help him, Justin leaves Ethan and moves back into the loft. I think (but I could be mixing up stories now) that Brian talks with a therapist/psychiatrist who is the ex-wife of his old high school gym teacher, who Brian mentioned in the show; and it is learned that he was actually molested by the gym teacher. In the end they all learn that Brian indeed did not try and commit suicide but ended up with some back drugs from Anita. FOUND! Reason to Believe by Tammy! Thanks wouldbedorothy!

2. Justin is alone at Deb's house during a really horrible storm. Deb and Vic (I think he was still alive) are gone on vacation, again I think. Brian, Michael, Ted and Emmett are all out at Woody's or Babylon and they show up just after the power goes out. Brian had returned because he knew that Justin is afraid of storms and he "wants to check up on him" or something like that. FOUND!

Thanks for any help!

#1 is Reason To Believe (http://qaf-fic.com/atp/viewstory.php?sid=2643&textsize=0&chapter=1) by Tammy (I found through the "b/j overdose" tag). Sounds like you had all the facts right :)

#2... you would think could be found under the "justin is afraid of thunderstorms" tag, lol. But, of the four fics mentioned in the one post under that tag, three don't seem to be it, and the fourth one (by branwen) is a dead link (wayback doesn't help), so I can't be sure.

#1 sounds like "Reason to Believe" by Tammy. One of my faves. link: http://qaf-fic.com/atp/viewstory.php?sid=2643

Now let me see if I can find #2...

Is #2 "Singing Me To Sleep" by Hannah Kelli? Here's a working link http://web.archive.org/web/20090114083707/http://www.geocities.com/hannahkelli/singing.html

Happy reading!

Thank you!

I had looked through that tag first cause of the main plot of the story but I guess I didn't look hard enough, lol.

[phaen-ncis.livejournal.com]

No, sorry. That was isn't it. The one I'm looking for has Justin alone at Deb's house during the storm. I wanna say it was based in season 1 when Justin was living there. Thanks for trying though!

I think #2 is 'Finding Comfort in the Storm' by Branwen777. I haven't found a working link though, so I can't be certain. Sorry.

[wouldbedorothy.livejournal.com]

My eyes are highly trained ;)

[wouldbedorothy.livejournal.com]

If you think it might be that one, OP, there's a post under branwen's tag that says you can PM chimerachan for the fic. Worth a try!

I have a question, I found the fic for #2, it is a Branwren777 story and I thought at one time I downloaded it from the 4shared site because of the way the file is labeled. However, I checked both archive sites and did not see it nor others by Branwren777 there. What would be the best way to add the fic to the archive? (To prevent "me too" comments and since I have PMs locked it makes it hard for them to contact me directly I figured adding it to the archive was a better solution.)

[phaen-ncis.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I found the thread with her email and sent her a message.

[phaen-ncis.livejournal.com]

Haha, yeah it probably didn't help that while I was searching I was also reading another story as well as watching TV and writing the next chapter of my own B/J fic, lol.

Thanks again!

[chadmom.livejournal.com]

Can you post if you find it? I'd like to read it.

[phaen-ncis.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she was able to send it to me. Just send her an email, I guess.

[lattemiele.livejournal.com]

well I have 'Finding Comfort in the Storm'

[sunandstars-1.livejournal.com]

Hi Stefanie :) Red passed on your message to me and Court, and I managed to locate this post via the "pm requester or commenter for copy" tag. Just wanted to say sorry that your comment/question apparently got away from me! I didn't mean to not respond. I hope Red answered your questions!

[ipitydaf00l.livejournal.com]

Red just said she was going to forward my question to both Court and you, so no the answer wasn't really given on what I could do about possibly giving files to the archive.

It's why I haven't jumped in on any posts lately on fics I do have because there is no real way to contact me off this community.

[wouldbedorothy.livejournal.com]

I feel like it used to be that anyone could add fic to the folder, but if that's the case now, as the folder has moved and changed a bunch of times. Let me ask Tita (qafmaniac), as that is her area of expertise :)
