Protectiveness

[fingerpaintash.livejournal.com]

Hi guys! I just joined this community, and after scrolling through and reading some of the fics recced here, I'm super excited about it. :D

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone could help me satisfy my protective!B/J cravings? I'm particularly interested in Justin protecting Brian, which seems to be the less common trope, but I'll take it either way. I'm talking anything protective- standing up for each other, taking care of each other, fussing over each other, throwing proverbial (or literal) punches on the other's behalf.

If you can think of a fic that even remotely fits this descriptions, I'd love it if you'd let me know.

Thank you very much, and have a lovely evening,

-Phi

UPDATE: I got a few recs, thank you guys so much, this community is awesome! I have however now read them all, and am always open to more suggestions :D (also is this ok for an update it's my first one)

I have a very strong Justin leaning so I write a lot of strong-Justin!fic. I have a couple that could fit your request.

The second one is a death fic but it is one of the most hopeful things I've written. And Justin still takes care of Brian. :)

In "But I Won't Do That (http://midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=16&chapter=1)" (21k words) by MoonShadow Woman (nochaser_12's comment above), J very heroically takes care of B and helps him survive.
In both "Shadows In A Mirror (http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=142)" (44k) & "Broken Angel (http://midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=1469&warning=10)" (39k) by Moonshadow Woman, B pretty much gives up his whole way of life to help & care for J.

In "Livin' On A Prayer (http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=1558&warning=10)" by lupin111, B/J both go to extremes in protective mode of the other, J literally takes a few punches as part of his scheme to protect B. AU, 55k words, http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=1558&warning=10 (http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=1558&warning=10).

We have a "protective brian" tag. We don't have "protective justin," but we do have "justin supportive of brian," which really works out to be the same thing. Lots of Justin taking care of Brian, standing up for Brian, etc.

(And, re: nochaser's recs, The Things I Cannot Change is FANTASTIC and perfect for what you're looking for.)

Now I'm gonna have to go read my own rec just one more time. Dang I love that story.
